New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie faulted his party Wednesday for its unwelcoming tone at times to minority voters.
In a speech to a Latino Coalition small business conference, the potential Republican presidential contender also boasted about getting 51 percent of the Hispanic vote in his re-election as governor.
Christie portrays himself as the kind of Republican who can attract females, blacks, Hispanics and other voters who are normally drawn to Democrats.

The GOP (at least some of it) is “unwelcoming” or even downright hostile to illegal aliens, not Latinos.
Isn’t it “racist” to equate Latinos to Illegal Aliens?

Christy is the leader of a circular firing squad.

I will never vote for Christie. No way.

The one ray of hope that I know of comes from my mother. She is not very politically savvy and probably voted for Obama in 2008. She basically falls for all the Democrat promises. But watching those kids streaming across the border and disappearing in the USA with Obama acting as the last “coyote” has turned her into a single issue voter. If we can avoid electing a pro illegal for the GOP, I believe we will win.

What do establishment idiots think they gain by trashing the base of their party like this? Votes? Favorable press?
Are they really that stupid?

Dear Mister Chris Chistie
We grass roots GOPers want border security, and we believe this to be a critical priority for the next CIC.
You do not.
We also want a candidate who we can trust.
Trustworthy? You? Nah. (Think back to the last general election.)
We also want a candidate who sets a good example for America's youth.
Mister Self-Control you are not.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie faulted his party Wednesday for its unwelcoming tone at times to conservative minority voters. Now, that would be news...with the added benefit of being true.

yes, they are that stupid. they desperately want to be invited onto the late night talk shows and to the "exclusive" Georgetown cocktail parties. they think the way to do that is to show how much contempt they have for their party by running down republican voters.
in short, they are jerks. short-sighted jerks.
