The governor is the party leader in his state the same as the President is the leader of the national party. They have a voice in the legislature.

Perhaps, but the governor still can't pass legislation by himself. Given that the NJ legislature just passed a new TEN shot restriction, the odds that it would repeal the existing 15 round restriction would seem to be nil, no matter what Christie did.
Again, it's not fair to criticize Christie for not doing something that's not in his power. I'm sure there are plenty of perfectly legitimate things to criticize him for if you're so inclined. Just not this one.
