HELL NO! Christie is a good part of the reason we have to put up with another four years of stupid.

Yeah, Christie will do so much better than Romney. Right.

Four years from now, when the GOP-E has foisted Christie or Jeb Bush on the nation as the Presidential nominee, it’ll be fun to watch the “Vote for the R” crowd here calling the third-party Tea Partiers traitors for not bending over in support.

Again.

Yup. We hold the house already and we just gerrymandered the hell out of countless districts. It’s time to dig in tight there in the House of Representatives and refuse to budge on anything. We need to stop working with the democrats. No more cooperation. No more RINOs. No more crying and reaching across the aisle. Time for scorched earth.

That’s true, although the election bells and whistles rang out. The next event will most probably be an executive emergency edict followed by a cursory installment by the CJOTUS.

Millions of us will have no say because of the primary voting system. I’m not getting behind another northeastern “republican” Christie won’t get my vote if he’s the candidate. Neither will Jeb Bush . 2016 is years away politically.

Gov. Crisco is the GOP frontrunner?

Or is it `frontwaddler’?

Anyway, the rest of the field must be walking awfully slow.

Yep, since Christie betrayed us and since I don’t live in NJ, I may have to think about a donation to Booker.

If a fit, successful white guy could not get elected I don’t see how an oversized white guy would do any better. Especially since the oversized guy is probably more hated by conservatives than was Romney.

Not to be morbid or harsh, but he might have a heart attack by then. The man is extremely overweight and 50y/o.

by 2016 if this country is still standing it will be in dire need of a CONSTITUTIONAL PATRIOT to sit in the WH. No matter how slick Gov. Christie talks he has proved himself to be an insider and not worthy to be the president of this country. He kissed obozo’s ass and it was shown all over the TV news as they both toured the hurricane’s destruction. When the Union bosses voice favor of a politician as they have for Christie, that in its self divulges a lot about the man and his politics. He is no CONTITUTIONAL PATRIOT and he is not what this country needs in the WH in 2016 or ever for that fact. If the power elite want him in the WH and if things have remained the same regarding the US’s fraudulent election system that put the obozo in the WH, then Christie will be president in 2016 no matter who the people want.

I have no love for RINO’s, but I absolutely despise traitors. Christie will always have a following, but I doubt enough of one to win the GOP nomination. His opponents will have plenty of footage of Christie gazing into Obama’s soft brown eyes.

Unless we are experiencing a depression in 2016 (which is possible) due to dempgaphics the GOP is finished as a nationl party. We no longer have the numbers to elect a GOP president. We have reached the tipping point. Thanks to all those FANS of LEGAL immigration we have pulled in over 40 million new voters from the third world since the 1965 Immigration Act. Almost all those new immigrants are poor & in many cases can’t even read or write.

Welcome to the “new America”.

Yeh, a poll of Democrats.

He’ll be lucky if he’s still alive in 2016. He always look like he’s on the verge of a heart attack.

RIGHT!!! His big mouth stopped Romney dead in his tracks. No other Governor wanted to be seen with Obummer.
