George "No New Taxes" Bush #41Either you do not remember or you are to young, but GHWB was forced by the rats to renege on his promise not to raise taxes. So stop this nonsense

"The liberals will use Christie to try to destroy the Tea Party, then once thats accomplished, they will destroy him."
Exactly, the old two-step: first proclaim Christie as the only viable model for Republican victory, then - once he's the nominee - denounce him as extremist, corrupt, and vain, and mock him for his girth.
To: Steve_Seattle
I suspect Christie will lose the weight by 2016, he’s already lost considerable weight since the lap band surgery.

They apparently knew Romney wasn’t a real candidate and would lose, everyone, even Truman, thought Dewey would win.

Write in Ted Cruz.

Donut Boy will not beat Thunder Thighs...That’s why liberals will go easy on him and if his butt ends up the republican nominee they will slice and dice his big white @ss into nothing.

No he wasn’t. Reagan would not have folded under the pressure that Bush 41 was subjected to. And that’s the difference. Character.
To: unixfox
Do you mean you won't vote period in 2016 if he is the nominee?
There are other elections in 2016 that are equally, if not more important then the presidential election

He has a good shot at being the 2016 candidate. The main party controllers want him. If/when that happens, and it is Hillary as the Dem candidate, how do you vote? You didn't ask me but I'll answer anyway. I'll vote for a 3rd Party Conservative if one is running or I'll write in a conservative. I will not vote for Christie or any other GOPe candidate.
The GOP told conservatives that they don't need us and they'd rather throw elections to democrats than see a Tea Party conservative win. I'm just returning the favor. The GOP is dead on it's feet without conservative support. They're just too stupid and arrogant to realize it.

It's still early though. The presidential election is 3 years off! But if not Christie, then who? Ted Cruz? Paul Ryan? They can't get the magic 270, not unless the 'rat nominated is a total trainwreck, and we won't be that lucky. Marco Rubio might do it, if he pulls enough Hispanics. Remember that Christie pulled 20 percent of the black vote and 45 percent of the Hispanic vote in NJ. Any republican who could do that on a national level would have inflicted a mortal wound on the 'rat candidate. But I'm not enamored with Christie. Ever since he made fun of people who were disgusted by NSA eavesdropping, he lost me.
To: Kaslin
This is how McCain and Romney became nominees of the Republican party. “Let the word go forth....” Interesting that the GOP-e ordained nominee is being thrown at us so early. They are trying to get ahead of the curve.
Perhaps they should wait and to see the results of 2014 first, especially the primaries.
To: pgkdan; ZirconEncrustedTweezers
Honestly, I agree.
But that will hand the FedGov to the Dems for at least a couple of election cycles. With the current demographics, it might just end any sort of conservative opposition period.
We need a strategy. Right now the TEA party is thought of as old, white, racist men. The likelihood of the TEA party attracting enough people after a GOP split to be competitive on the national scale is close to zero. We need to re-brand in a way that the MSM can't use their typical labels against.

I won’t vote for another pResident that is a RINO. The only people I will vote for will be Tea Party candidates.
The rest can kiss my rebel ass!
