Losing Some Weight

 

The governor is just like the Wildebeests at the Nile River drinking water. They can't see the Crocodiles but they know they're there. You can bet Chris Christie has seriously thought about throwing his hat in the ring. The Republican nomination isn't the problem though. It's the big race he's worried about. He would probably get the Republican nomination on disapproval of the president alone. He would be the only one with a record matching his rhetoric. Especially one that the people could live with. Unlike the radical Tea party favorite Congressman Ron Paul.

The dark horse appeal of Rick Perry has worn off. It's looking more and more like he should have showed up in the beginning. Based on his recent performance. Looks like he needed the practice. So far George W. Bush-lite isn't working out to well. Rick Perry has the look, but not the swagger of the former commander-in-chief. He was soundly whipped in the last debate by a soft-spoken usually reserved opponent. He had his butt handed to him by Mitt Romney. Someone not known for his aggressive behavior. Not so good for the cowboy image.

Don't be fooled by latest straw polls done in Florida. They might have traded spots but the top two competitors are still the same. It's a serious problem when the highest polling candidate (Herman Cain)  in campaign contributions and fundraising is in last place. Why isn't that support converting to dollars I wonder? I think the same thing would happen to Gov.Christie down the line. Regardless what the President Obama haters say. This won't be his first time facing the fat jokes as opposed to pressing issues. Him being elected governor could have had as much to do with hatred for former Gov.Corzine as the voters love for him. The people of New Jersey were so fed up with corruption. They just wanted a change (sound familiar). The mainstream voters won't stretch their arms around him like Conservatives have. There is a little voice telling him it's not his time, and that voice would be right. The best chance Christie has is 2016, and if possible losing some weight.
