Don't see Christie making it out of Iowa at this point, predicting he does worse than Perry in the caucus and drops out before NH.

Damn, too bad Christie isn't running for re-election this year. We could have Brownbacked him!

That sounds disturbingly like euphemism.

Christie is such an utter disappointment. I was excited at the prospect of his candidacy a year ago, now he's an after thought.

Without a case to be made for his record (NJ also has higher than avg unemployment), and without his bipartisan appeal (lost due to scandal), all he is left with is being a blustery RINO. If he gets in (assuming no one close to him gets indicted and flips on him, which is a big if) I don't see him getting past NH

And disturbingly, it's already been made into one.

Wait till a rival calls him Governor Downgrade on a debate stage. Should be a fun clip.

It seems like Lief's posts sometimes have a sexual tint to them. I've definitely seen references to spanking more than once.

Also, lol "fiscal conservative" Christie.

It looks bad, but I'm somewhat skeptical that this is something that'll hurt him that much in the eye of the average voter. Its not like Romney's lackluster gubernatorial record is what hurt him last time.

His nomination chances were low after the scandal, this effectively ends it.

The savior for the GOP is a bully whose basket-case economy, credit rating disaster and bridge shutdown to punish his political opponents is why he should be the nominee? As Chris Matthews would say, "Ha!"

Christie had almost no chance at the nomination at this point anyway.
