Chris Christie Goes National. Romney’s running mate? NJ insiders say it’s not so far-fetched.

[2010 was the year of the TEA party.

2012 is the year of the conservative smack-down.]

Really? One of those entrenched RINO incumbents is going to get their walking papers handed to them by a Tea Party candidate in tomorrow’s Senate primary in Indiana. Cnservatives may have lost the White House, but the Congressional, state, and local elections is where we will win. We can take control of the party from the bottom up.

RE: Does anyone have a well informed list of Christie’s values? Where does he stand on God/Country/security?

Ann might actually have an “O” if she hears Romney picks Chris.

I can already see the photoshop pic of them on Laurel and Hardy like the Kennedy/Kerry photo a few years ago.

Another reason I’m thinking it will be Rick Snyder. There’s an actual chance of pulling Michigan and Rick Snyder is about as conservative as Al Gore. Perfect for Romney.

Yes, and a whole bunch of people here will be telling us Michiganders to not believe our "lying eyes", and that Snyder is really a conservative.

[CharacterCounts]

I'm not saying that the TEA party is gone - far from it.

All, I'm saying is that the GOP-E have embarked on a course in 2012 to try to smack conservatives down.

Its the whole point of the Romney candidacy.

Does anyone hear really think the GOP-E is in favor of a strong TEA party?

Good possibility....

Wiki is right up to date.

Richard Dale "Rick" Snyder (born August 19, 1958) is an American business executive, venture capitalist, and Governor of Michigan. A member of the Republican Party, he assumed office as the 48th governor of Michigan on January 1, 2011. From 2005 to 2007, Snyder served as the chairman of the board of Gateway, Inc., based in Irvine, California. Previous to his election as governor, he was chairman of the board, chief executive officer, and co-founder of Ann Arbor, Michigan-based venture capital firm Ardesta LLC. Snyder has been mentioned as a potential pick to be the Republican Party candidate for Vice President of the United States in 2012. Snyder's business executive background and positive style have been cited as assets, with his accomplishments seen as strengthening the case for electing Mitt Romney as President.

As long as it’s not Condi Rice. That would be the worst pick possible.

[ConservativeStatement]

Newt was my first choice if nothing else to see him debate Obama. However, Christie, not so much as a choice for President but just for entertainment purposes, vs. Obama would be amusing. Obama would get manhandled like the chump that he is.

Christie is not a classic liberal, possibly more akin to the lefty liberal aka fabian/fascist. He loves the Muzzies, Hates 2nd A....loves to slam all opposition. Christie + Mitt=total loss!

[Republic Rocker]

Well in my opinion the Republican Party better get MORE diverse or it will soon Whig Out!

I think VP pick will be more looked at this time around as we are in such a close race. Will it be strategic? Yes it should. All good picks w/ Florida, Virginia, Michigan..... obviously Florida has the most electoral and a MUST for Romney. Florida’s son Rubio will also be a + w/ the Latino vote. Can a small gathering of those voters stop Obama. Maybe.

Like it or not the Latin culture is the faster growing within these borders and if there is no inroads made there will never be a Republican/conservative party in existence. I know I live in California. The world is melding and the various ideas coming together on how to solve things. for better or worse. Them’s the facts and you better adapt. Outside of war or separation from others we will need to learn to co-exist and get the most you can and learn to live with what you can not control. I am getting tired of the idea of living the rest of my life with everything being black or white, win or lose. Life is too much about give and take. Think about it.

HAHAHA! For the *FIRST* time in her life, since breaking up with Bill Maher! :)

[paul51]

Great. Slick and thick. Just what we need

[dfwgator]

I wouldn’t be shocked if she went lesbo after dating Maher.

[Daffynition]

**she went...**

As far as I’m concerned she can *go* ...anywhere ....would be fine...her ego is as big as any man’s I’ve ever witnessed.

Sorry, but that sounds like a bunch of liberal claptrap to me.

The US Constitution says what it means and means what it says, and there is no "adapting". Protect the borders rigorously. People who come here legally can be the ones who "adapt" to American culture, not the other way around. If government grows so big that it becomes tyrannical and oppressive, and attempts to finally finish off the Constitution, well... the Constitution has a built-in remedy for that.

Think about it.

But don't you see???? It'll put New Jersey in play!
For the first time in years, NJ would be in play from the moment of the convention until the moment they lose it on Election night!
