WaPo's Jennifer Rubin Already Eyeing Cabinet Members For President Christie's Administration

HUNTER WALKER – FEBRUARY 13, 2014, 11:52 AM EST

Conservative Washington Post columnist Jennifer Rubin published a piece Thursday suggesting New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie (R) is still a player in the 2016 presidential election in spite of the scandals rocking his administration.

Rubin referenced Christie's chances while discussing a Politico story about how Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker (R) was defending Christie against calls to resign as chairman of the Republican Governors Association.

Rubin described Walker as a potential 2016 candidate and said he still has incentive to support Christie even though they may be rivals in that race.

"Walker may not ultimately seek the presidency. Even if he does and does not win the top spot, he may not want to alienate the man who still might be the party’s nominee and possibly the president," Rubin wrote.

They can't stand him. The Democrats seem to like him much more (at least until the bridge gate thing).
