It will be interesting to see what Christie, the only Republican who looks like he could conceivably defeat Hillary, will do in ‘16. If I were him, I would conclude that the GOP nomination for president is not worth winning if it requires him to move so far to the Right that he is unelectable, and I wouldn’t try to compete with the pack of howler monkeys for the extremist votes. If there aren’t enough pragmatic GOP voters to win the nomination, then so be it; let Rand Paul, Ted Cruz or some other crazy have the nomination and go down in flames. That may be what it takes to break the GOP’s fever.
