Texas Gov. Rick Perry says that if Chris Christie runs for president, the GOP will likely have a conversation about the New Jersey governor’s ideology.

“He was a successful governor in New Jersey? Now does that transcend to the country? We’ll see in later years and months to come,” said Perry in an interview that aired Sunday on ABC’s “This Week.”

The Media and the RNC apparatus will push for Christie.
He will win the nomination but the rest of the country who have not forgotten what he did will not vote for him.
At least not in sufficient numbers to overcome the voting fraud.
And he will lose, to Hillary Clinton.
That's the Liberals and GOP-e Plan.

The same “Republican” primary voters who gave us Dole, McPain, Romney might well warm up to Christi unless Jebbie comes in and takes away Chris’ marbles.

There will be a litmus test on the ballot in 2016 and it will be the same one that will be on the ballots for the 2014 mid-terms. That litmus test will be Obamacare. Any Republican who finds himself unable to come out strongly and forcefully against Obamacare won’t make it past their home state.

That is going to be a big order for Christ Christie, who seems to have difficulty opposing Obama on anything.

We'll see, won't we?
Christie has to stand up and be his own man. Otherwise, why would we trust him? He does "own his soul to the company store," but, if he's smart enough he can get his own way. We'll see.

What Mitt Romney learned about Chris Christie in 2012 and why it matters for 2016

The press is hoping Christy gets nominated precisely so they use this stuff against him.
