I know everyone uses these threads to bash Christie and its legitimate to criticize some of his positions but we have to face reality. Republicans in New Jersey ran more conservative candidates for governor and senator before and they all got killed. Christie takes a lot of positions that aren’t conservative but he also takes a lot of positions that are, especially on spending and tax issues. And he also is wildly popular. So you have a very popular moderate Republican cruising to re-election in a solidly Blue state. That is about as good as Republicans and conservatives are going to get in NJ. That is reality.

Some truth to what you say.

HOWEVER:

“I know everyone uses these threads to bash Christie and its legitimate to criticize some of his positions but we have to face reality. Republicans in New Jersey ran more conservative candidates for governor and senator before and they all got killed. “

WHENEVER the Conservatives beat out a RINO in a Jersesy primary, the RINOs who run the party refuse to support them and walk away. Schundler was the last example but he was one of many.

Unfoirtuantely Chrisite is the best we have had since Meyner (a Democrat no less!!!). But Presidential material - not as a Republican.

On the Second Amendment, the jury will be out until those maniac Dems on the Legislature put all those cooky anti-Second Amendment bills on his desk for signature.

Further proof that there’s not a dime’s worth of difference between the two parties.

I do not care... they elected a progressive dim liar that is a dim in all but name. What difference does it make... attack ALL politicians and states that deserve it... nj is one of the worst amongst many.
