Christie says "2016, Here I come!"

He guessed Obama would win. As the race tightened, he must have gotten nervous. Now he can "campaign" for Mitt's opponent and be "above politics".

Well done, Governor, well done.

Most here are missing the point I was trying to make. Forget which side you "root" for and put aside for just a moment -- if possible -- the fact that this storm was a terrible disaster.

Christie wants to be president. He made the calculated decision that either he wasn't ready or that he wouldn't beat Obama. He also looked at the doofus Romney and saw him as a likely loser. So, wisely, he turned down Mitt's VP offer. (That's not public info, yet.)

All of a sudden Mitt is looking like he has a chance, a good chance. Now 2016 is looking like it may have to be 2024!

But then Sandy comes to the "rescue". Now I know most people would say that I am being cynical and that Obama and Christie are just doing their jobs. How dare I inject political motivations into something where people have died.

And that is what makes this so perfect for both Christie and Obama. It is the right thing for them to work together and to praise each others leadership. The fact that it will help Obama win next week and free up the Republican ticket in 2016 is, I guess, the mysterious ways of God.

You know, a fat president would represent the American people better than a thin one.

Combine Christie's obesity with Bush's ignorance and you have the perfect president in terms of representing the common American.

their experience as governor far outweighs Obama's 2 years as senator...
and the last 4 years as president will go down no better than Jimmy Carter.

So you think GW was a good president, huh. I wonder why he wasn't invited to the Republican National Convention?

Better than Clinton?

Clinton was lucky, he was able to surf the wave from the 80s Reagan/Bush economic revolution, no foreign treats, saw the tech boom on a vast scale, see his policies were curbed and work with GOP Congress, and his ability to market himself ... "taking the country into the 21st century (which doesnt work well today).

Clinton was lucky... but he doesnt apply today, and frankly was more concerned with his legacy... Bush didnt care about legacy... do whats necessary for the nation !

So yes, Better than Clinton and certainly Gore....

and i didnt even mention Monica!
