MILWAUKEE – Relegated to the Republican undercard debate for the first time, Chris Christie focused on attacking Democratic front-runner Hillary Rodham Clinton as he tried to use his performance as a springboard back into the field’s top tier.

“Hillary Clinton’s coming for your wallet everybody. Don’t worry about Huckabee or Jindal, worry about her,” he said early on in the hourlong debate.

“If you think Mike Huckabee won’t be the kind of president who will cut back spending, or Chris Christie, or John Kasich, wait till you see what Hillary Clinton will do to this country,” he added. “She will drown us in debt. She is the real adversary tonight.”
