New Jersey's Vichy Governor

“ Jersey Vichyssoise     Christie’s inner circle have taken the complaints seriously, fearing their implications ahead of the 2016 presidential election. For the past nine months, they have quietly labored behind the scenes to woo the party’s skeptical power brokers. Their maneuvers have included huddles with Republican moneymen, off-the-record powwows with conservative journalists, and late-night conversations with past backers. [Full] The GOP seemed to have chosen Jeb Bush as their '16 nominee, so evidently there are those in the GOP hierarchy who don't think he can beat Hillary.  The Clintons think they have Obama's support, but know him well enough to be prepared for intrigue. Remember all the leaks about Barry's "birth right" that surfaced during  his duel with Hillary?  Obama does, and we all know whom the number one suspect was, don't we?  Christie, began currying favor with Obeelzebub by campaigning for him during the 2012 campaign.  While New Jersey was a real toss-up state.  And when Obama's name was MUD.  It was an epochal moment for him; even Ann Coulter began apologizing for her early swoon.  Christie then is the perfect GOP candidate, and will likely beat Jeb for the New York Times endorsement if he gets traction  The Times is critical, having selected every GOP nominee since 1988, based on their guess of who is likely the easiest to beat.  The whole thing is a charade.  The next good and honest U.S. president will take the oath with  the smell of beer and cordite permeating the air. Not something I want to happen, mind you; just the way it has to be now, IMO. Unless Sarah Palin can prevail. ”
