In an endorsement that is both not surprising at all and yet, you have to wonder why it exists, the Cake Boss officially endorsed N.J. Gov. Chris Christie in the presidential election.

And Christie hopes his latest celebrity endorsement before the New Hampshire primary will give him the boost needed for a strong performance Tuesday.

Christie was joined Monday at a town hall meeting in Hudson by Buddy Valastro, star of the TLC reality show “Cake Boss.”

Valastro praised Christie’s leadership in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy and his ability to get things done in a heavily Democratic state.

“We need someone who’s going to cut through the bullcrap and bring people together.”
