..seriously, when they wake up from their binge-and-Obama-circle-jerk, they’ll realize they will be offering the peeps either Hillary-the-Tumor or Gaff-o-Matic as a presidential option and will probably draft draft his immense ass.

There’s really no reason he can’t run as a Democrat.

Sure he made a lot of noise about the unions but that’s easily fixable. On everything else from the size of government to gun grabbing, he’s reliably blue. Heck, the MSM would call him a Reagan-style centrist for the 21st century.

Thinking like this is why the GOP is in trouble.

It’s a lesson that could help the national Republican Party loosen the tea party’s death grip.

Watch that Tea Party element – they’ve imposed crippling cuts to the federal budget already, which will result in 100 million dead Grandmas (CBO estimate). Before that they tried to get arch fascist Romney elected President.

Thank you Dana – we need more women like you in the media.

Let’s see, Christie reads widely known polls that show the American public’s trust in government, and in particular the Congress, to be at historic lows, and that the public hates both parties fairly equally. Then he notices that the GOP base hates their speaker to the point where he had just suffered a massive rebuke by having to pull his own legislation. In fact, Christie may have even read a story or two about how Boehner may not even be reelected to his position as Speaker, because some Tea Party guys are going to stage a coup!

Then he gets in front of a microphone and excoriates Congress, and Boehner in particular.

That’s a maverick for you!

Except that, as I noted earlier, pulling the Sandy relief bill is about the only thing in the last couple of years that Boehner has done that the base favored.

Oops!

Perhaps this explains why Christie was groveling to some media whore a few hours ago about how the Tea Party doesn’t have undo influence in the GOP, and that they are a voice that deserves to be heard at the table.

Christie talks out of both sides of his mouth.

Crist and Christie should run in 2016 on the No Labels tecket. They can do a pretty good Stan Laurel and Oliver Hardy.

This is a joke, right?

Eat the GOP, more like…. at least as an appetizer…

Can Chris Christie rescue the GOP?

Oh yeah, by capsizing the boat?
