I like Christie because Obama doesn’t. That, however, does not give him a free pass for some of his non-Conservative views (anti-gun, for instance).

I would not like to see him in the Presidential race in 2012. There are better Conservatives out there, and the American political experience needs to focus on the roots of this country’s Conservative founding principles.

Do you have any campaign information or any recent press releases from Christie that are “anti-gun” or are you basing that comment on a 1995 NJ Assembly race flyer that was posted here about a week ago in which Christie attacked opponents for wanting fully automatic weapons legalized?

If you have anything more up to date than that, please share it with us. I haven’t heard anything else about his position on the 2nd Amendment and I’d like to find out more.

(What he did with his runningmate 15 years ago could be completely irrelevant by now. Ronald Reagan was a liberal Democrat at one time. So were a lot of people here. Times change. People change.)

In addition Christie has no problem with illegal aliens who cost NJ taxpayers 3.7 billion per year; that's up from 2.1 billion. Christie's current budget expands all entitlements. He happily signed a bill to offer financial aid and tax credits to attract private companies to participate in developing wind farms in the ocean; he is against off shore drilling. Christie has been silent regarding the railroading of Brian Aitken, a legal gun owner, sentenced to 7 year in jail. Christie's current budget expands all entitlements.
