Christopher James Christie (born September 6, 1962) is an American politician, lawyer, political commentator, lobbyist, and former federal prosecutor. I predict that Christ Christie will be the Republican Nominee. He has great experience resume and debating sk**ls. He is a "Classic Republican" and antiTrump.

Connie Mariano, former White House physician to Presidents George H.W. Bush, Bill Clinton and George W. Bush, is not laughing. And she's a Republican! While Christie [fantifully] bragged about his cholesterol and blood sugar, Mariano told CNN that he might have diabetes, sleep apnea, and heart disease, "I'm worried he may have a heart attack. I'm worried he may have a stroke... It's almost like a time bomb. Christie's health based on being overweight for decades is a serious negative... tho he has lost a lot,100# with surgery...he has a lot to go now weighing 250# and much damage is irreversible.

The Democrats have a dilemma Biden is thought of as wise but too old, born in 1942 he is 82 in 24. Harris is a woman, and not experienced in DC political gamesmanship. Harris was born in 1964 the same age era as Christie. Her parents emigrated from India and Jamaica thus she will be attractive to the black v**e. With her legal experience, she can match wits and sk**ls in a debate with Christie, both sk**led experienced trial attornies.

By switching seats, Harris for president the woman's v**e is assured, with Biden as VP then people who love him will know he is leading the two, "the power behind." Many will think he is providing political sk**ls to the team with his decades of being in the DC game. She has the energy to do a lot of Euro traveling that being president requires. In contrast to Christie "Harris is strong as hell." Harris says she believes in the power of a morning workout to set the tone for your day. "I work out every morning, It's just the best way to start the day."

Assuming that Trump is legally out of the game... What do you think??

In a nutshell, I think you are giving too much credit to Harris. I also think you are right about getting the women's and black v**e, but I believe it would only be because of her g****r and color. Not her qualifications or accomplishments. We have not seen much of a record of accomplishment from her as VP and there's no expectation that she would do anything more as president. As far as Christie, I don't know. My plan is to watch the debates and post-debate actions of the Republican candidates. I'm not committed to anyone right now. I do hope the e******n does not come down to v****g for the best of the worst.

I don't give Christie much of a chance - - too much baggage (both politically and medically)
Unless he'd in jail, I'd v**e for the Donald. And if jail happens, I think DeSantis has a pretty good shot.

I see you are not very fussy.

No offense, but do you even personally know any republicans? If you did, you would know that Crispy Creme has zero chance of the nomination.
If Harris is such a great debater, why was she first out of the primary?
As for your Biden VP comment, that's impossible since he is constitutionally ineligible.

DeSantis is a Trump inpersonater. Here in Florida he has done some outlandish dictatorial moves. He did not think about the money and PR sills that Disney has...oops.

The virtue of Chiristie is that he has the old Republican image and in government issue debating he will outshine many other candidates especially his competition DeSantis. Yes, DeSantis is an Attorney he was a Navy Seal but not a Seal... he was a legal advisor. DeSantis won the Republican nomination for the 2018 gubernatorial e******n and narrowly defeated the Democratic nominee, Tallahassee mayor Andrew Gillum, in the general e******n by 0.4% [perhaps]. The distribution and qualifying for v****g is heavily manipulated by the Republican party in Florida.

"The new plan, which was drawn by Governor Ron DeSantis, gives Republicans a significant boost in the state and is one of the most aggressively gerrymandered maps passed in recent months. Republicans would be expected to win 20 of the state’s 28 congressional districts, a four-seat increase from the 16 they hold now. It also eliminates two of four districts where Black v**ers have been able to elect the candidate of their choice."

No, Aardvark, Biden has only been president once and also if Harris died then he could be president the second time.
"The 22nd Amendment states that no one can be elected to the office of president more than twice. The keyword here is "elected."

Chrip Cream was the tease buzzword for his eating habits... since then he has lost 100# and is now at 250#... no longer eating Christie Cream donuts. "zero chance of the nomination." Perhaps, but if he uses the right words and Trump is in solitary eating bread and water, then it is DeSantis... and DeSantis can be tripped up by Christie using DeSantis quotes and dumb Florida laws... and his flying immigrants from Texas to Florida then to Northern states.

Aardvark said "If Harris is such a great debater, why was she first out of the primary?"
Times and people change... and if she has the right "producers and directors" she can act well on stage.

Aardvark asked me "No offense, but do you even personally know any Republicans? "
Yes, I do and I have visited them both in Chattahoochee Florida's mental hospital houses some of the state's most dangerous patients. Both of these people were sane befroe Trump's criminality was documented; they are MAGA cultists.

The key word in your statement is "really." I would clarify...it is not who really thinks Biden is wise... rather how many think Biden is wise. Men who only want men as president would think that Biden is the Power behind the woman president. The President and VP, can pick a great cabinet... delegation of responsibility is important to good management. Trump made a mistake only having Bobblehead who agreed with him.

When teaching after retirement, I covered a biology class for a day. I stated that they should question/thank- about everything they are taught, for example, "Modern Man has a larger brain and is thus smarter than our ancient ancestors." I warned... young men... you see that Hulk of a football player... and that petite blond. Well, she with a small smiling head can out-think that football player any day. The women agreed, and the boys chuckled. Harris has learned survival sk**ls and has done well in political stepping stones.

And did you offer the blonde vs football player analogy based on no evidence other than trying to be clever?

Good god, I must have had a senior moment like Biden. Major brain fart on my part. Don't know what I was thinking. Make fun of me all you want. I deserve it.
