Last Night, We Got Our First Look At Chris Christie With The Woman He Might Pick For Vice President
Business Insider via Yahoo News ^ | November 5, 2013 | Brett LoGiurato

In his whole re-election campaign, Gov. Chris Christie (R-N.J.) has invited only one sitting out-of-state officeholder to campaign with him: New Mexico Governor Susana Martinez (R), who joined Christie at eight campaign events Monday, including a rally in heavily Hispanic Union City.

In many ways, Martinez is the perfect complement to Christie, amplifying his strengths as a politician. She is relatively young (54) and a moderate who maintains strong popularity in a blue state. She has worked closely with a legislature held by Democrats and bucked her party by taking the Medicaid expansion in Obamacare. Perhaps most importantly, she's almost 2,000 miles removed from the poisonous politics of Washington, D.C.

The credit goes to KC_Lion...we need to start playing the Alinsky game...they want to call us ‘Teabaggers’; that’s the label we hang on them...Uniparty. Uniparty extremists, at that.

I don’t see any substantial differences between Christie and Clinton.

I want to start calling the Rinos “Fluffers” since that is what they do for the progressives.

I no longer care what the GOP does. I’m through with them. Destroying the country at a slightly smaller pace than Dems isn’t an opposition party.

I question why she was there. Perhaps the VP thing is on the mark, because Christie really didn’t need her support. There was no question he would win the election.

I won’t vote for either. Because “what difference does it make?”

If you actually think a McCain or Romney would have been any better I think you’re nuts. And if you just think they’d be slightly less bad, that’s even nuttier to me.

Did you hear Romney the other day DOUBLING down on Obamacare? He said, “I’d just give states more flexibility” to force HIS idea of healthcare reform (let’s quit calling it that when it’s about insurance and not care) that still requires the individual to buy a product.

Yeah, today we’d be much better off. /s

Hi CC, I hope you are well.

I would have a hard time choosing whom to vote for: an extremely successful commodities trader who had no training, or a former lobbyist for Bernie Madoff.

Decisions, decisions.

Christie will probably do fairly well in the Iowa caucuses. He will get all the Rinos to support him while the christian conservative vote will be split up with folks like Cruz,Paul,Santorum,and others.

No more holding our noses while voting for a “moderate” Republican presidential candidate, Dole, McPain, Romney? Christe is the guy positioned to lose gracefully to Her Thighness Hillary. Time to start a conservative third party as the Libertarians are not conservatives, just quirky individualists.

The Uniparty is full of unitards.
