Oh God!
Oh boy. I can see it now. Christie gets in. Palin gets in. Battle royale. I’m still hoping he sticks to his heart and says no, but I recognize he is under a lot of pressure to run, and is receiving quite a bit of flattery and temptation.
No! No! No! Hand-pounding, foot-stomping, temper-tantrum-having no!
We got deadlines to get on the ballot in a number of states coming up in a month. We also got the reality that the entire time table might be moved up if Florida moves their primary. Sorry but the window is closing fast.
That was crap sandwich speech for the Nation, but one that might work for his NJ Governor reelection campaign.
Who Cares!
‘The big tease’ - How is it different than Palin?
He has stated he is not running. Many times over and over.
It is always some un-named source that keeps it going. It certainly isn’t him.
If the guy doesn’t want to run, they should get off his back.
after the firm “no” he gave that woman at the Reagan Library the other day he’s gonna come off looking like a bigger flip-flopper than Romney if he does this.
If you like Dole or McCain, or Romney, this is the candidate for you.

CHRISTIE DEFENDS MUSLIM JUDGE APPOINTMENT:
“But it was a follow-up question on the fear of Sharia Law that set the governor off. “Sharia Law has nothing to do with this at all, it’s crazy!” he cried. “The guy is an American citizen!” He concluded that the “Sharia Law business is just crap… and I’m tried of dealing with the crazies,” adding with disgust and frustration that “it’s just unnecessary to be accusing this guy of things just because of his religious background.”
NO THANK YOU!!!

Not this crap—again!!!
—“We need you. Your country needs you to run for president,” one woman pleaded after Christie’s moving speech there. —
That right there is what is called “anecdotal” evidence. You can find a person like that woman even for Barney Frank.
The moderates are doing all they can to block our efforts to nominate a staunch conservative.
If Bill Kristol wants him to run I say: “No Way!!!”
They wouldn’t have room on the debate stage for Gingrich + his ego and Cristie + his ego.
He’s the backup for the Republican Establishment in case Romney’s campaign crashes and burns.

I’m also disappointed about this “moving speech” stuff. A good speaker is nice, for it is part and parcel to being a good leader, but the track record must be examined. It is the foundation on which the speechifying rests. Christie is great for New Jersey, relative to the other options they have. For the US? No way.
Heck, Hitler gave “moving speeches”. That and his iron fist were really all they had. In fact, if he had left the war to his generals, Europe would probably be Nazi now, the US would never have entered the war, he would have gained the Ukranian “living space” and there would have been no “eastern front”.
Thank God all he could do was give “moving” speeches. Didn’t work out so well for the Germans though.
FoxNews just showed a poll where 39% say Cristie should NOT run.
Only about 32% say he should run.
Governor Palin has not even once ever stated that she was definitely NOT running.
Christie has stated on dozens of occasions that he is not running. The most recent was at the Reagan Library.
