re: #407 Lidane

I think that’s why some of the GOPers are pushing for Christie to run. They may see Christie’s window closing - he might not win reelection in NJ, but has wider appeal outside NJ due to his unfiltered speaking style.

His record wont sit right with the right wingers though (nominating a Muslim judge to the state bench for example) - but they may be willing to overlook that when they see his ability to go after the unions and bring the NJ budget into a more balanced situation structurally. Socons wouldn’t support him though, he’s far too moderate - but the same things that would disqualify him with the socons are what makes him more electable in the general elections.
