This is the Republican Party, no new ideas, just recycled old ones - Mitt Romney, Khristy Kream, Jeb Bush, etc. This is the first time in my life that I’ve considered not voting - but I will not vote for someone like this.

Yes... a very WEIGHTY force.

Seriously though... a force for.. what? The Presidency?

If Christie wants to be on the national stage, he should position himself to run in 2018 vs. Menendez for Senate.

Then he wowed a crowd of 300 in Davenport

300, huh? I'm whelmed.

Yep. Definitely need a downhill start.

I’m not sure. The ‘serious’ conservative himself might have problems convincing me of the strength of his convictions if he named one of the biggest RINOs in the country as his VP.

Chris Christie is a Whig. If he runs as the GOP nominee, it’s time for a new party. At least one establishment party will be destroyed.

Fundraiser. No doubt it had a healthy entrance fee.

Branstadt has also been hosted by Jeb Bush in Florida for Iowa fundraising.

This is strictly my own opinion, and I probably take some flack for it, but this reception for Christie is exactly what I’d expect from Iowa.

Iowans are very nice, hospitable, welcoming people, who would do anything to avoid offending anyone.

But the farmers of Iowa have sold their souls to big government and will keep electing Obunga-types to keep the big ethanol checks coming.

When a Rino like Christie shows up in Iowa, the folks will turn out and cheer and fawn over him because that’s just their welcoming way.

But come election day, they’ll all turn out and vote for Hillary....or whoever the ‘rat candidate is, because they are sold out to big gubmint.

Christie will be a force in 2016. Romney is a burnt out loser. Too many people are tired of the Bushes. Christie may be the last RINO hope to either lose the election or at least choose someone who will continue expanding FedGov. 2016 is clearly our last chance to preserve freedom and restore America (if it’s not already too late), and our enemies will be all in behind the wobbliest big government liberal they can find. Christie fits the bill admirably.

McCain or Romney didn’t take Iowa.
Christie wouldn’t either

My concerns is more for the Dhimmicrats being pressured to ‘have to vote for the black man’ mentality. But a caucus is not, in my opinion, any way to vote... That is, en mass, as a mob...not a very rugged individual type of method.

This is Republican wing of the Uniparty wishful thinking. Christie will only be a force at the buffet table and not much more.
