Christie would have been a better pick than Ryan IMHO. With his as VP, the Sandy incident is mitigated; highlighting the ticket. Throughout the campaign Christie does a better job contrasting the differences between Obama and Romney, plus performs better than Ryan did in the debate against Biden. It's a tight race up until the end, even with Sandy, but on election day Romney narrowly wins.

√ (R) Romney/Christie: 270 (49.3%)
(D) Obama/Biden: 268 (49.2%)


*NJ is the tough one, under these circumstances I could see it going either way: 1. Narrowly for Obama, or narrowly for Romney.

√ (R) Mitt Romney/Chris Christie: 284 (49.5%)
(D) Barack Obama/Joe Biden: 254 (49.1%)

Romney does ~1% better in the popular vote but does not pick up any further states.

Obama still wins anyway. He only loses NJ in a very close margin.

Romney wouldn't take New Hampshire, and Christie would probably be so elitist that Missouri would actually swing to Obama,maybe North Carolina too.

New Jersey to Romney...perhaps,but I doubt it.

How would Christie be elitist?

New Jersey would be closer, maybe even closer than 10%, but not much more than that. If anything, being tied to the national Republican ticket hurts Christie's chances for reelection in 2013 (though not by much).

If by elitist you mean rich/think of themselves as important, Romney was that too - and he won Missouri by about 10 points - the reason it took a while to call on election night was because 1) it counts as slow as a snail, and 2) the networks, for one reason or another, don't have a lot of trust in Missouri's exit polls. It'd be (non-atlas) red with Romney/Christie, by probably about the same margin.
