New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie
CBS News
Elected in 2009, Gov. Christie is the first Republican elected to lead New Jersey in 12 years. Born in Newark, the bombastic leader was urged by Republican activists to run for Republican nomination this election, but opted to stay out of the race.
As governor, he approved a cap on property tax, cut payroll tax cut and cut state employee pensions. He vetoed a bill to allow same-sex marriage in his state, scrapped federal-state plan to build a new train tunnel between New Jersey and Manhattan sighting budget constraints. According to the New York Times, the governor approved more than $1.5 billion in tax breaks for businesses that promised to increase jobs in the state.
Christie endorsed Romney in October and has been a consistent surrogate throughout the campaign.
Paul Ryan is a disgrace to politicians and to the American people in general. He has led the charge NOT TO vote for anything that will help us get out of this economical mess because he doesn't want Obama to get credit for it. All the Republicans are on board with that one, no matter how detrimental it is to us. Christy is too fat and too a raunchy to be VP. He has some skeletons in his closet as well as the Indiana Governor.
She is living in another universe. Women's rights and privacy are under constant attack by every republican governor and legislator. Perhaps if she took the time to listen to women, read a newspaper and watch some TV aside from the GOP mouthpiece FOX she would grasp what is really happening.
Wake up Nikki it's your gender under attack. Ordinary middle class and independent women know of this GOP affront to their dignity and they will vote!
All the poor starving Irish that fled oppression by the wealthy English, and now he has become what his ancestors ran away from. Way to go Paul, way to stand up for the least of our brother.
This guy is a mean spirited spoiled piece of garbage.
