Christie couldn't pass VP vetting because of his health problems as well as his corruption and cronyism.

President of Americans for Tax Reform Grover Norquist heaped praise upon Chris Christie on Wednesday, calling him a “strong voice for conservative governance” who has “moved mountains” in his state.
In an interview with Katherine Timpf of Campus Reform, Norquist called Christie “one of the six or seven who could run as a successful governor for the Republican nomination.”

Norquist called Christie a “fine voice for the Northeast Republicans,” and said we must “grade on a curve” for Republican governors who have had to manage divided governments as Christie has.

ATR’s Tax Forms Raise Questions About Use of Crossroads Grant, “Social Welfare” Purpose
Americans for Tax Reform, the politically active nonprofit headed by longtime antitax activitst Grover Norquist, raised and spent nearly $31 million in 2012, according to its tax filing for the year — a new record for the group.
-snip-
In addition, the vast majority of ATR’s funds — $26.4 million, or 85 percent — came from Crossroads GPS, the 800-pound-gorilla among conservative dark money nonprofits that are highly politically active and don’t disclose their donors. That means that ATR used at least a sizable portion of the Crossroads grant to fund its political ads, even given the fact that it is difficult to trace how any single donated dollar is spent.

Report: Karl Rove has been funding Grover Norquist
Students of the GOP establishment take note: new documents revealed by ProPublica, the George Soros-funded “investigative journalism” outfit that supplies free content to media outlets, reveal that Rove’s fundraising behemoth Crossroads GPS supplied $26.4 million of the approximately $31 million Norquist’s outfit, Americans for Tax Reform, spent in 2012. That’s about 85%.
In the corporate world, if one company owns 85% of another, that company is properly called a subsidiary.

Sadly, there are still plenty of republicans who wholeheartedly agree and consider both Christie and Norquist conservative icons.
Well Grover...let me spit in your general direction.
If Christie and Norquist were on fire, I wouldn’t waste the urine to put them out.
He took on the very powerful teacher union in NJ...which I'm surprised they didn't break his leg or kill his cat...
I'm willing to hear him out if he runs for POTUS...
Not saying I'd vote for him, but I'd listen...
I think he actually is a lot more conservative then his record as Governor implies...
But, of course I could be completely wrong...
Well, then. That does it. Bye, bye, FatBoy.
Grover Tokyo Rove Norquist is as big a liar as Ubama.
Are you saying we have uninformed Republican primary voters? And do they live in KY, SC, TN, and AZ?
This PROVES the Republican Party has been taken over by the CFR... Christie is a flaming RINO..I know I live under him...
Will they get together and build a ground zero mosque?
It is abundantly clear that the GOP Establishment has anointed its next candidate.
Come on you fat ape. Hit the campaign trail along with all your other RINO friends.
I am going to be at every campaign stop and remind you that you are not my voice in Congress and you will NEVER be the spokesman for me.
I saw Dennis Miller’s comment about having Turduckentie for Thanksgiving. A chicken, inside a duck, inside a turkey, inside Chris Christie. To which I can only add that the difficulty isn’t getting the chicken, duck and turkey into Chris, it’s getting them out.
The only mountain he moves is his big ass when he gets out of bed in the morning.
Unfortunetly, Grover has become Karl Rove’s little bitch.
Where is the “Barf” Alert?
