CNN has a story up about how NJ Governor Chris Christie (R) and LA Governor Bobby Jindal (R) spent a large part of last fall feuding over who would get to chair the Republican Governor's Association (RGA) - and when.
The fighting evidently got so bad that Virginia Governor Bob McDonnell (R), then serving as RGA chair (Rick Perry had resigned to run for President) - to intercede.
"The campaigning grew intense enough that McDonnell fired off an a internal note to his fellow governors urging them to keep their eyes on a more pressing challenge -- the presidential election, then little more than a few weeks away....As the dust began to settle in early October, McDonnell managed to broker a deal in which Jindal would run the committee in 2013, with Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker as his vice-chairman. Christie would take over the following year, with Jindal as vice-chair."
