This is one joint (ticket) Obama can't smoke! Christie is one HEAVY hitter!
Proceed to make jokes about his weight, but the fat of the matter is, this ticket ain't no joke. Put that in your pipe and smoke it Obama! Bub bye, thanks for playing.

  • Dear Usamamasan,

    Welcome to politics 101. Here is why this won't work. 1) You have two candidates who when on a national ticket, might not even carry their own state (which happen to be 2 of the bluest in the nation). NJ COULD go Republican in 2012 if Christie is on the ballot, but it'd still be tough. 2) You have two VERY moderate individuals who in many other states would be Democrats. 3) Where's the appeal to the southern conservative base? Republicans bringing two candiates from the northeast of the country is unheard of. Putting these two together on a ticket only opens the door for a third party to come in, draw support from the Republican ticket in the south, put more states in play for the Democrats, and actually make a win impossible to miss for the President.

    These are just a few reasons why this wouldn't work. But hey, I'm all for another four years of President Obama, so bring it on.

    Happy Holidays,

    I'm just curious why you capitalized the whole word American. Are the other candidates less American?

    Nevermind. I see now that this is theme with you that I've been fortunate to miss out on. Carry on.

    And people believe that Nationalism is dead. Ha!
  • I actually like Christie's views re: Freedom of religion. Something a lot of the other Republicans can learn a lot from.

    Romney: Elect Me, You’ll Get a Job; Elect Obama, You Won’t

    Strong!

    And back in November. “If we re-elect Barack Obama, Iran will have a nuclear weapon,” Romney said during a debate on foreign policy sponsored by CBS News and National Journal. “If you elect me as president, Iran will not have a nuclear weapon.”

    I really wish Romney would say that. It would be, without any doubt, the DUMBEST statement any cadidate has ever made. Ever.

    **EDIT**

    Holy shit. He really did say that. What an absolute goon of a statement to make.

    Makes sense to me.

    Woot!
  • Yes, you posting an article clearly shows an understanding of the innerworkings of politics...let alone national politics. Maybe we should have started off with an introduction class instead of a 101

    Tell you what, I've made my points as to why I disagree that it would be a strong ticket for the Republicans. You tell me how it WOULD be. How does this ticket win over the south, keep a third party candidate out, and please the Tea Party and religious wings of the party?

    Following the laws of the land is "HUGE" when it is something you agree with. I'm sure it means nothing that Osama Bin Laden's family was in the United States while other President's were in office. I mean, they're family members of enemy #1.

    romney can't do any of that. look at his poll numbers. the gop base does not like this guy. period, end of story.

    Mitt Romney's had another good week. Prediction market data from Betfair and Intrade indicates that the presidential hopeful has a nearly 70 percent likelihood to win the Republican nomination.
    If Romney chose Christie it would energize the ticket FO SHO!

    Energy Woot!

    anybody who is praying for obama to fail now a year from the election is also rooting for the country to fail. that is treason and those people should be tried as traitors.

    it is a very sad commentary on america when people would rather see an entire country and economy fail because they do not like the one man sitting in the white house...

    that said, romney is not going to win against obama. too much baggage...

    remember that "obamacare" is pretty much the exact same bill as "romneycare", so romney's big government credentials as well as his inconsistnecies on his positions makes him too erratic to win the gop nomination...they want someone that holds on to stupid ideas even in the face of facts (see bush in buildup to iraq war, cain's 9-9-9 plan, etc..) or someone who talks to them like they are in 3rd grade...if romney were to get the nomination it would be a bloodbath with obama winning a second term...

    So I see you're just choosing to ignore the political suicide aspect of this and just post nonsense. Shame.

    Coming from an American who bashes America daily this seems like some good 'ol bait. :lol: you can't be serious.

    And, you are broad stroking (that sounds funny) because anybody who wants Obama to fail knows this is necessary for America to get back on track. duh.

    NEWSFLASH----THIS JUST IN----OBAMA HAS ALREADY FAILED> OPEN YOUR MIND AND LOOK AROUND!

    Now,back on topic and lets stay away from baiting ok (read posting guidelines)

    ...As he readies to go to Iowa and campaign for Gov. Mitt Romney Friday, Christie said he isn't concerned about surges in the polls for other candidates.
    He said Romney "is the only person who has the staying power to do this."

    i am dead serious...

    and no, it is not bait. if you or anyone would rather see the country fail than obama succeed at anything that might fix it you are hoping for the collapse of your country. that is one of the definitions of treason.

    and to you it sounds like "bashing". to me it is criticizing. i expect better of my country, and when i see my country fucking up i have a right to call it on those fuck ups and i have the right to criticize my government and my country. so i freely use that right. this country CAN to better. i do not wish to see my country fail, i do not wish for the economy to collapse, and i do not wish for obama to fail. anyone that wishes for those three things is a fool. and from your posts it seems that you want those 3 things to happen, so yes you are being foolish. it seems you would rather let the country go to the crapper for another 13 months while congress does nothing but stalls, until whomever you are supporting, i guess romney this month, can magically swoop in and save the country from the brink....

    we are all in this together. i hated bush's guts, but did i ever wish the country to fail? NO. did i ever wish for the economy to fail so that obama or clinton can sweep in and magically save it? NO! because i understood that if the president fails, then the country fails, and we can not have that....not now, not ever...i just want someone to fucking fix it and fix it yesterday. people are suffering these days and we do not have the luxury of time to be messing aroud and playing politics while our economy collpses.

    and as i have told you personally before, if you do not like the way i post, do not childishly post the posting guidelines to me. PM me, or report me to a moderator. i have attempted to work this out with you already.

    I wouldn't call it praying ... observing is the more appropriate term.

    Christie would be an excellent choice by Romney. There are many conservatives that are not strong supporters of Romney but love Christie. Adding him to the ticket would unite the base and provide the GOP with a more moderate candidate to capture independent voters.

    Oh, I remember, the threatening pm where you told me you were keeping a "list" of all the times I have "baited" you so you could "report me to the mods". I thought threatening pm's were against the guidelines. (not to mention how hilarious it is that someone would actualy do that)
    Whatever.
    Show me where I want those three things to happen? You can't put your words in my mouth. So please stop. Thanks. :D. And don't forget to stay on topic! ;)

    Back on topic...
    A senior Romney aide, who declined to be named discussing strategy, suggested in an interview with Yahoo News that Romney will spend much of his time in the next few weeks directly quoting from the campaign speeches that Barack Obama gave four years ago during his Democratic presidential campaign against Hillary Clinton.
    "All you need to do is pull up the calendar and see where he was and what he was saying," the Romney aide told Yahoo News. "He has to explain why he hasn't delivered … That's a winning argument for us."


    "I'm frightened that we have a president that doesn't understand America, that he doesn't understand what makes us unique," Romney warned Wednesday at a stop in Clinton. "He would transform America. I will restore America."


    restore it Mitt! Obama is a turd clogging the pipes yo!

    that might be true. but this race is so all over the place that romney has time to tank it by november 2012. he has been up and down most of the race and he is up right now. but then again so is santorum :o:o:o

    plus there are hints of trump running as an independent and apparently palin is running ads in iowa too. it is not too late for her to jump in without risking getting exposed as a hack in the 29 or whatever debates the gop candidates are holding..
