Gov. Crispy Cream of NJ is absolutely the wrong OPTIC for the party.He will represent a party which is out of touch with starving poor people.
“He will represent a party which is out of touch with starving poor people.”
Maybe he will be a visual sign of solidarity with all the obese poor people.
How then do you explain him having a 56% approval rating in NJ? The left successfully defined him as anti-public employee union, he vetoed a gay marriage bill, and yet, he managed to overcome all the attacks and post that approval rating. Fat body and all.
For all his policy flaws on other issues, the guy is an absolute master at speaking hard economic truths, and making tough solutions appealing to the average voter. I wouldn't want him as the nominee, but in terms of changing the debate and giving momentum to the Ryan approach to budgeting, he's the best possible pick.
