Democrats now coordinating “at the highest levels of the party” to take down Christie

Good. Saves me the effort.
…………………………….
Of course they are more worried about him switching to his true party and hurting Hillary, rather than they are worried about his progressive policies if he were elected President.
I bet if he went ahead and switched to (D) right now, and announced that he wanted to be Hillary’s VP, they would embrace him.

It’s too early to count anyone out yet. Besides. We in middle America know that there’s not much traction in lane closures.

New here. How do we quote someone to comment on their comment? Is it just a copy/paste or is there another way?
Thanks!

Now they’re coordinating? They’ve been in a frenzy from the first drop of blood in the water.

Re: the 3 way race in MO between Akin, Brunner, and Steelman:
Brunner admitted he was “old friends” with county exec/puppet Charlie Dooley, an incompetent Democrat crook who cannot compose a sentence. Dooley cries racism every time he is embroiled in a scandal. Brunner’s defense of Dooley was a core admittance that he’s no judge of character.
Sarah Steelman was an awful debater who forgot the questions by the time it was her turn. She and Brunner both agreed with McCain’s assertion that U.S. intervention in Syria was necessary. That’s why I could not vote for either of them. Akin was the only candidate to unequivocally state he’d not support involvement there.
Akin made a stupid statement, apologized, and the GOP promptly cut the campaign funds. Akin has a bullitproof voting record in MO and in the House. The entire situation is sad because the old battle axe from MO, Claire McCaskill, former state auditor, tax dodger, and Obama lap dog was able to cast the deciding vote for Obamacare.
And BTW, Obama lost to Romney, while the same racist Dems voted for Claire. With identical positions, why would Democrats vote down Obama and elect Claire?

One would think that brilliant political consultants/college professors like Dr. B could recognize the clear pattern of the last few elections:
1) Democrats who lie and pretend they support conservative positions win
2) Republicans who repudiate conservative positions and try to run as Democrats lose.
Why, it’s almost as if both Republicans and Democrats lie to voters about how conservative they are to get elected.
Which belies the stated position of both parties that people won’t vote for conservative positions.

The single most astute comment in this thread:
Don’t do anything about him right now. Don’t circle the wagons, don’t dump him, don’t comment on what is happening.
Most of the country doesn’t give a fying fluck about Bridgegate.

I keep coming back to the source of Christie’s infamy among TruCons: The President visited his state in the wake of a devastating hurricane and Christie chose to shake his hand rather than assassinate him.

The NJ dems would attack any (R) in the same position. They’re just doing it with more vigor to pay back Gov’na Bully and teach him a lesson. Only Dems are allowed to bully people in a state.

Taking long hot showers with Obama and his praise for him just before the election while refusing to attend a Romney rally was just the last straw.

Why shouldn’t he have refused to attend a Romney rally? I thought Romney was a liberal in RINO clothing. Maybe he was seeking your approval and wanted to avoid Romney’s grody RINO cooties.

It’s new to me, this TruCon version of loyalty. What’s your beef again? When you lined up with the other TruCons to stab Romney in the back, did Christie cut in front of you or something?

Romney doesn’t own anyone’s vote. No politician or political party does. They actually have to earn them. I am sure your leftist soul cannot stand the idea of people making their own decisions, but there it is.
Christie was the keynote speaker at Romney’s nomination (Palin wasn’t invited or welcome) and the Rino Christie was the one who slobbered all over Obama. Character…or the lack thereof actually matters.

You aren’t very bright if you cannot figure out the difference between a complete stranger who owes you nothing, and someone who is invited to be the keynote speaker at your convention.

Life probably holds little meaning for Christie now, anyway, since “The Boss” turned on him.

If the GOP must survive, it must stay as the party of Freedom
with Virtue, two components that a strong society must have
to survive.
Swedish Patriot on February 7, 2014 at 4:35 AM
The media, who has an obvious left bias, keeps saying a center-left Republican is what’s needed to win, so the GOP keeps putting them up there. Christie’s just the latest.
John Deaux on February 7, 2014 at 6:26 AM
When someone disrespects their own base, they will find no one will be there to defend them when the people in the opposition camp turn and attack them.
Nat George on February 7, 2014 at 7:25 AM
Chris Christie took himself down when he took his moonlight stroll on the beach, hand in hand with the Dog Eater while begging for federal cash for his peeps. The knife in the back of Mitt Romney outed Christie as a progressive RINO.

Sure in 2008 Obama pretended to be conservative in red states/purple states and liberal in blue states. since the media didn’t hold his feet to the fire he got away with it.
Mitt tried the same thing but unlike Obama Mitt had a record and a hounding media keeping people aware that his happy conservative talk was hotair.
the list goes on and on. Basically politicans try to become what the voter demographics makes them. so you have red state dems like the Sen from WA acting like a conservative and blue state republicians like Castle acting like liberals.
Reagan was mentioned upthread. the reason Reagan won 48 states is he didn’t try to conform to what the voters wanted. He sold the voters on his vision. Unlike Obama or bush or Clinton Reagan didn’t lie to get into office, he didn’t pretend to be conservative in red states and liberal in blue states. He simply present his vision for the country and asked the voters to trust him to accomplish it. They did and he did. Mitt had no vision, Obama lied to all to get elected and once elected went and did what ever he wanted to do. Bush did the same thing just at a smaller degree.
No one since Reagan has run on a vision and asked the voters for their trust. everyone since Reagan has lied to whichever crowd was listening at the time in the way they deemed would get them the most votes.
Reagan’s vision happened to be conservative so many in the GOPe think they have to lie about being conservative to win. Several in the GOPe are tired of lying to get elected and thus the turn against “true conservatives” they would rather run and win as liberal lite but they can’t so they lie.
