Though Rick Perry’s lack of campaign dollars received the most attention this week, whispers are now circulating of a possible second GOP candidate giving serious consideration to dropping out of the race by the end of this month – New Jersey Governor Chris Christie.
Paul took the position the government’s surveillance powers were significantly over-extended while Christie implied the senator’s views were dangerously ignorant and little more than “hot air.” Days after the confrontation between the two men it appears more voters are taking Senator Paul’s position over Christie’s as the New Jersey governor’s poll numbers continue to be stuck between 2 and 3 percent approval in both Iowa and New Hampshire. Senator Paul’s numbers have increased slightly or stayed the same in both states following his debate performance.
Christie is said to be preparing a final designated push in both of those states in the coming days and if that fails to improve his standing, he will most likely bow out by the end of the month.
I wrote him off when he said people who oppose assisting fraudulently documented foreigners were “heartless”.
Unfortunately, looking at a waist line like Christies does not make Americans feel any better.
It’s expensive to be substandard while pretending to not be in this business...
At least he’s smart about it. Some idiots will hang far too long.
Whyyy did I take a bite of food before I read your post? Hilarious.
Addition by subtraction.
Yes, Trump gets his votes. People who like Christie aren’t policy freaks; they like straight talking populism.
I believe Rubio has a FL deadline. You can only run for ONE office. He is going to have to make a decision of senate vs president.
And liberal Republicans.
Why wait? Even if by some miracle he got the nomination he wouldn’t even carry NJ.
We’ll know from the gigantic Earth-busting crash.
Wrong...
On March 23, 2015, United States Senator Ted Cruz of Texas gave a speech announcing that he is running for the Republican nomination for President. In his speech he said the following about illegal immigration:
Instead of the lawlessness and the president’s unconstitutional executive amnesty, imagine a president that finally, finally, finally secures the borders.

Rubber chicken circuit not appetizing enough for crispie cream?
Rubio has announced he is not running for reelection to the US Senate. A competitive primary is taking shape for that seat in Florida.
Bet he gains back the 100 lbs he had sliced off that slab.
Probably Trump. He’s the other northeastern liberal Republican in the race.

I’m thinking the Bush’s should qualify as northeasterners.
Kennebunkport is pretty north and east.
“A bridge too far” for Mr. Donut.
Go, and shut up.
