		<description>Chris Christie seems like a competent guy but get a grip folks. Bravado may show you have balls but it doesn&#039;t show you are at all electable:

(1) Chris Christie &quot;does not have experience&quot;. He has only been in office 1 year 8 months and 6 days. His &quot;sole achievements&quot; are taking on the Teachers Unions and shoring up a $2.2 billion deficit. That is normal, not extraordinary.

(2) He is, in fact, &quot;morbidly obese&quot; so much so that he &quot;exemplifies over consumption&quot; which is at the heart of our Governments Problems. He will not be able to overcome &quot;the obvious disconnect&quot; with the electorate. 

(3) He simply is another big city lawyer who is more abrasive than empathetic. The nation will need a &quot;healer&quot; as well a &quot;decisive leader&quot;. He simply is not it.

In the end, he will be destroyed politically. He has less experience than Barrack Obama, he showed incompetence in losing a $400 million Federal Education Grant, and his Obesity is a major turn off.

Just saying....</description>

		<description>Not a fan of Christie. If he runs it will be another lie. He swore he would not run. He lied to the police fireman and teachers when he said he would not change their pension.  Too abrasive fo be President plus the weight probleuoim creates a serious health problem.i</description>

		<description>Christie&#039;s hospitalization for &quot;asthma&quot; last summer came exactly at a time when a flurry of news storiies were published about the News Corp hacking of Floorgraphics, and most of those stories mentioned that Christie was U.S. Attorney in northern NJ when Dept. of Justice chose not to investigate obvious News Corp wrongdoing.. At the time, I wondered if Christie had a panic attack and not asthma problems.</description>

		<description>Chris Christie is someone I can get excited about.  I hope he runs.  Wouldn&#039;t a dabate with Obama be GREAT!  Half the country would be tuned in!  I can&#039;t wait but I think he&#039;s thinking twice, having to uproot his family. Go Christie/Rubio</description>

		<description>Kay, obviously some in Jersey like Christie or he wouldn&#039;t have been elected.   You must like the Goldman Sachs guy, Corzine, and his corruption and spending.    Sneaky politicians, speaking out of both sides of their mouths, make Christie look refreshing.</description>

		<description>Christie would be my first choice but I hope he doesn&#039;t run for 2012 because he &quot;almost&quot; promised that he wouldn&#039;t.   I am tired of politicians going back on their word.   I would like to see him CLEAN up the corrupted state of New Jersey.   What a mess!   I like his style of telling it like it is and no beating around the bush.   IMO, most of the 50 states (not 58) are corrupt.    I am tired of these politicians and lawyers.</description>
