I forgot that he was on the executive committee of the Republican Governors Association. These guys control the party’s campaign money in their states and can raise unlimited money for the presidential candidate.
Mitt Romney, a chairman, was their guy and got the money to run away with the nomination. The establishment takes care of their own….(Rick Perry, whom I thought was going to be a force to reckon with was also a chairman but couldn’t compete with Wall Street money for Romney….)
This coming year Christie is the chairman and will campaign across the country helping Republicans win governorships. A great way to gin up support for his own campaign. Of course, with guys like Kenneth Langone, billionaire owner of Home Depot, and who knows how many more, he’s going to be virtually impossible to beat as far as raising money.
After Tuesday’s election the Republicans are sure that Christie is the guy. He’ll have to make it through the primaries but as his opponents split the votes until they run out of money he is gold…
To win I think Perry or Bush would fair better against Hillary but money talks…..
