Chris Christie running?
No official declaration yet since he is also running for re-election
as New Jersey's governor, but in his classic, no BS style he
acknowledged to his Democratic opponent that he can walk and chew gum
at the same time if it comes to running for president while governor.
Guy is unique. At another point in their debate the Democratic
challenger ( State Senator Barbara Buono) said that she will "never,
never balance the state budget on the backs of the middle class".
Christie responded with, "I know you will never balance the state
budget ..... I had to do it for you".
Christie leads in the governor's race polling 64 percent to Bouno's
30 percent.
It will be interesting if he runs in 2016. Given the mood of the
country right now he could give Hillary a serious challenge and he has
already distanced himself from the Tea Party crowd. In fact, he
never embraced them period. I'd love to see Christie taking on Cruz
in primary debates. He'd probably tell Cruz to shove it where the
sun doesn't shine.
