Barbara Walters just predicted that Christie would get the Republican nomination.

[Tuesday Afternoon]

on The View just now.

[no_hypocrisy]

1. And Whoopie and a good representation of the audience were absolutely

sour on Christie.

Unless Barbara has inside information on a fix, it's her opinion alone.

[Renew Deal]

2. I can see his appeal.

But I think republicans are desperate if he runs.

[INdemo]

6. looking back over the years in politics and this is the quality of

candidates a political party puts forth when they know they don't stand a chance in hell of winning..But the corporate media will boost these nut shells at the direction of their corporate bosses till dooms day..We could run a McDonald's Happy Meal toy and beat anyone these idiots.

13. What's his appeal?

[Renew Deal]

15. One of my friends likes him

He's plain spoken, slightly angry, isn't overly polished like a Perry or Romney type, etc.

My friend likes him because he says that Christie says what he thinks. He considers him "honest" for that reason. I wonder if anyone is actually listening to what he says. Honest and bad is honestly bad. :shrug:

3. Oh great, Chrissy Meatballs!

So now we'll have Chrissy Meatballs joining the right-wing freak show also known as the Republican candidates.

[mmonk]

4. Will he even carry New Jersey?

[monmouth]

5. Can New Jersey carry Christie??..n/t

[Bumblebee]

7. so what?

I am sure she has predicted lots of things in her long life, most of them wrong.

[Lint Head]

8. I don't think he will because he's so heavy a State can't even carry him.

Had to do it.

[Yo_Mama]

9. He's not even in the race

That's quite a prediction.

[RockaFowler]

10. Weren't all these people the same ones who wanted Perry to run??

I mean he was supposed to be this great guy who never lost anything. He had to be able to beat President Obama. Then he was a poor debater who had no substance. Now it's Christy. What's with the media?? The new flavor of the month is already soured?? They can't take it when they keep propping up these guys who can't even get out of their own ways. Look at Tweety. He was in love with Bachman a month or so ago - today he was so in love with Christy.

[gratuitous]

11. The latest flavor of the month has indeed gone sour

Two weeks ahead of time, too. I hang my head in shame, thinking that Rick Perry would last until Columbus Day. He didn't even make it out of September. Chris Christie now joins the conga line of Ron Paul, T Rump, Crazy Eyes Bachmann, and Dimbulb Perry for his turn in the spotlight. Christie will be a moldy jack-o-lantern by Halloween.

[WI_DEM]

12. And Walters will shill for him all the way. She gave up long ago

on any pretense of being a journalist.

[blm]

14. She's shilling for Bushies. They WANT Christie running this cycle, too. Keeps 2016 open for Jeb.

Everything that happens in this primary should be be viewed through the 'what-scenario-puts-Jeb-in-WH/2017' prism.
