Locally.

I reckon he'd be OK locally, but he'd be DOA nationally if he allowed gay marriage to pass.

The nutter base would go apes*** and he wouldn't even smell a chance of winning a Primary.  On the flip side, with the aftermath of his praise of Obama over Sandy and his fights with the party over the aid he could decide the hell with running and sign it.

Not his base in the New Jersey Republican Party. This is a man with 12:1 approvals amongst NJ Republicans, and 8:1 approvals amongst NJ Independents, and 2:1 approvals amongst NJ Democrats. He has political capital to spare -- so much so that if he supported gay marriage, it would actually change a lot of Republicans' minds on the issue. Christie is just that powerful a figure right now in his own state.

Isn't this like choosing between the People's Front of Judea or the Judean People's Front?

Yeah I don't like T-Mac, but I'd take Satan over Kookinelli.

I've got no particular sympathy for Crist, but I'd take anyone to get rid of Rick Scott.

Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin  will probably do so at the same time -- when state legislatures flip from R to D after the 2014 elections.

No chance of the legislatures flipping with vicious gerrymandering IMO.

Being a moderate as result of your convictions is not bad. Being a moderate hero is.

But seriously....

Too much.

Lincoln?

Yeah, guns are one of the few issues where Howard was right on IMO.

ftr I was referring to congress, not presidential.

Still, thanks!

Allegedly Richard Nixon was pro choice in order to rid the country of mixed race babies like Barack Obama.

No, he won't endorse until the primaries have effectively finished.

That the Republicans would've controlled Congress regularly (circa say the 1990's).

Didn't Goldwater have links to the pro-choice movement?

A start at least...

I hope Mark wins the primary, if only because we might pick up the seat then.

Why are so many people voting Prohibition?

Chafee - faux Republicans.

What are they?

I can find PVI's from 2004, 2008 and 2012, but not before then.

I would've thought Downer was yesterday's news. Obviously not.

Sherrod Brown, of course.

Before very recently - almost certainly Democrat, and mostly they still do.

Some voted for McCain and Bush, others stuck with their roots. Only in this election did they largely vote Democrat.

King, WA?
