Why waste Christie in a nothing job like Veep? Better to put Chrisite into something like AG instead. I was pulling for Newt because Trump needs someone with experience in legislating to get his changes through. You know Paul Ryan isn't going to be helping him.
We need someone who knows how to win. The near term objective is winning. Nothing else just pick the person who will make us win,win and win. No nuancing crap. Brute force winning. Smash mouth winning and in your face winning. Find that person and get out of his way.
