Christie could end up being a gift that keeps on giving if he runs for Prez. [View all]

Why? His mouth. It flies in NJ but won't fly nearly as well elsewhere. He is combative as hell. And if Hillary runs, and I hope she does, people won't take kindly to his constant Hillary-bashing and Obama-bashing. Hillary will have an army of women from across the spectrum and African Americans mad as all hell at Christie who is unapologetic for the way he trashes people with whom he becomes annoyed. And they will be out campaigning like hell for her (as will plenty of progressive men and young people, me among them). He says he is proud of his bullying demeanor. We'll see how well it plays outside NJ. One thing that will be fun will be watching him and Ted Cruz duke it out. That'll be a blast.
