Still not an official contender for the GOP presidential nomination, the speculation that New Jersey Governor Chris Christie may run and the push to get him to run goes on. According to the Newark Star Ledger, Mr. Christie is seriously rethinking whether or not to throw his hat into the ring. Meanwhile a new poll shows the governor is essentially tied with President Barack Obama in a hypothetical 2012 matchup.
Those poll results confirm what many prominent Republicans have been telling him. Mr. Christie's alleged change of heart has come after recent prodding from (among others) former First Lady Nancy Reagan, former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and former President George W. Bush. It's been reported that those individuals have convinced the man who only recently claimed he wasn't ready for the top job that not only could he win, he has what it takes to be president. And they should know.

—Still not an official contender for the GOP presidential nomination, the speculation that New Jersey Governor Chris Christie may run—
He said, repeatedly, that he will not run.
Why are you still arguing what has already been decided. - Malcolm Reynolds http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Malcolm_Reynolds
According to the Newark Star Ledger, What ?
This is a joke, I trust.
You’re not seriously pushing Krispy on us, right?
Not according to Chris Christie:
“I don’t think I’m ready.”
“I don’t have what it takes to be president”
“You need to have a fire in the belly; I don’t have that.”
“You need to be able dedicated entirely to becoming president; that’s not me.”
WE DON’T NEED NO STINKIN RINO!
NO NO AND NO! He’s an anti-gun RINO!
No. I don’t want him. Who in the world is pushing for him? The liberal media?
.
CHRISTIE DEFENDS MUSLIM JUDGE APPOINTMENT:
“But it was a follow-up question on the fear of Sharia Law that set the governor off. “Sharia Law has nothing to do with this at all, it’s crazy!” he cried. “The guy is an American citizen!” He concluded that the “Sharia Law business is just crap… and I’m tried of dealing with the crazies,” adding with disgust and frustration that “it’s just unnecessary to be accusing this guy of things just because of his religious background.”
NO THANK YOU!!!
.
Only in France.
No thanks.
Pimpin’ your blog is bad.
Pimpin’ your blog for a RINO is even more worser.
No Muslim will ever judge me in a court of law. EVER.
Good grief. Are we now going to have to endure an entire evolution of Christie supporters posting hundreds of threads about him, until this ridiculous fantasy blows over?
So this “tub of goo” with two years as GOV of NJ, is being BEGGED to run as POTUS.
Palin with the same years of experience as GOV was slammed by the GOP.
Funny how it is not too late for the HIPPO to enter, but for Palin to enter? "She is toast", according to the GOP establishment!
Palin must run, she is the one! Everyone knows this! Her supporters know she will shake D.C.to its core and her “haters” know this. This is why she is love or hated... RUN SARAH!
Nancy Reagan should know? Her favorite son’s name is Ron.
Barbara Bush should know? Barbara Bush is pro-abortion, married to the biggest globalist rino loser of his decade, and the mother of GWB, an amnesty wanting, muslim friendly RINO,
GWB should know? GWB sold condervatives out flat out, pure simple.
NO Christie. Not now. Not ever.
Th hell he does. NO RINOS!
Why isn’t Rubio being begged to run!? (ala Rush)
conservatives.
Dang.
