My husband and I watched and thought it was fantastic! Spot on. He’s straight forward, offers real solutions and called the President out on not being a leader.
He’s very popular with young people who tend to be conservative. My 23 year old and his friends have watched Christie videos on youtube for the past year. It dawned on me that he was the first politician they’ve ever seen who was not afraid to confront the media. At work, a bunch of young professionals sitting around on their lunch hour watching youtube vids of Christie, made me realize he would have appeal to young voters.
We must develop a higher quality bench of Republicans to draw from. There is a deep hunger for a Republican to win this year and yet we have not one great candidate to choose from. He should simply be conservative, for border security, and probably some executive experience in government, along with exposure to the national media and a proven ability to articulate his beliefs.
The failure to have a dozen good candidates to draw from is one of the greatest tragedies of our time. I put most of the blame on RINOs and the Republican establishment that pushes liberal/moderate types that end up failing to enthuse the heart of the party.
