    Former Gov. Tom Kean says Christie is rethinking presidential bid

    TRENTON — Adding credence to recent reports that Gov. Chris Christie is reconsidering a run for the White House, former Gov. Tom Kean told the National Review today that "it's real."

    “It’s real,” Kean told the magazine. “He’s giving it a lot of thought. I think the odds are a lot better now than they were a couple weeks ago.”

    Talk that Christie is reconsidering a bid for the White House after his repeated and oft colorful denials began brewing again this weekend. A handful of reports citing unnamed sources claimed he was rethinking his decision not to run.

    I'll be embarrassed if we have a president who needs Marine One to get to the WH Easter egg hunt on the South lawn.

    So leading conservatives spent most of yesterday proclaiming their new savior: New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie. Before the GOP anoints Christie as their new Chosen One, however, they might want to take a moment to consider the New Jersey governor’s eminently reasonable record on immigration. Simply put, Chris Christie makes Rick Perry look like Tom Tancredo:

    Chris Christie is hardly the ally that illegal-immigration foes are looking for. In 2010, Christie told Politico that America needs to come up with a “clear path to citizenship.” He didn’t say “for illegal immigrants,” but since America already has a clear path to citizenship for legal immigrants, that’s what he meant. This is an entirely reasonable and mainstream position, but in much of the GOP, they call it “amnesty.”

    Christie’s opponents could also point to the time he insisted that being in the country illegally is not a crime but an “administrative matter.” He’s right — simply overstaying your visa, for example, can get you deported but can’t land you in jail. But to impassioned illegal-immigration warriors, we’re not sure the nuance will be appreciated.

    Then there’s Christie’s record on illegal immigration as a U.S. Attorney in New Jersey, the job he held before he became governor. Back in 2008, Bill Tucker, a producer on Lou Dobbs’s now-deceased CNN show, could only find thirteen illegal-immigration cases prosecuted by Christie’s office between 2002 and 2007. Tucker compared that to the U.S. Attorney’s office in Kansas, which, despite a much smaller population, prosecuted 597 cases in the same time period. “This man is an utter embarrassment,” Dobbs wailed.

    Christie's main advantage is that he's so telegenic, as much as Ron Paul.

    And a "Christian" hate group chimes in:

    FRC’s Tony Perkins: Christie ‘Would Have A Difficult Time’ Getting Support From Social Conservatives

    Christie’s record, however, may trouble social conservatives, a point New York Magazine made this morning by outlining his stances on gun control, climate change, education, Muslims, and of course immigration (the same issue that seems to have derailed Perry’s status as the frontrunner). Family Research Council President Tony Perkins all but confirmed that today at the National Press Club, telling reporters that Christie “would have a difficult time gaining a lot of support from social conservatives” should he run for president.

    Save yourself the money Christie and don't do it. You have no shot. Physical appearance matters, and I hate to break it to you, but you're fat.

    Obama is an embarrassment. Fat can be lost, backbones can't be grown.

    He didn't do here in Jersey. Promised property tax cuts, taxes gone up. Unemployment is same as when he was elected, and still over the country average. He did fire cops, firemen and cut their pensions (even though those guys have been paying on their fund) after saying he wouldn't.

    More of the same, basically.

    He said it again, he's not running today. Now can we stop with putting him in the running?

    Did you get a quote? All I found today was:

    Gov. Christie won't enter presidential race, his brother insists

    I don't think he'll run, personally.

    He won't run, he'll be airlifted.

    Thank you. Thank you.

    Being fat makes him completely unelectable for president. Remember how no one took Ross Perot seriously when he was destroying Bush and Clinton in the debates about NAFTA, since he had big ears and a high-pitched voice? Or how goodhair Gore won the 2000 nomination despite having not one intelligent thing to counter Bradley with? Perry is the ultimate embodiment of the axiom that looks matter in an election; all he has is his hair.

    A concise, perfectly made point. Illegal immigration is only illegal because we made it that way.

    Are there not laws governing immigration into the United States of America? Would cir venting them not be a violation?

    Illegal immigration is illegal because it violates the laws that govern immigration.

    And, what about the immigrants that adhere to the process and enter this country legally? You know, in accordance with immigration laws.

    The electorate will decide who best will represent the Republican party and, given current cir stances not improving much before next November, whoever it is beats Barack Obama.

    It's what the primaries are all about.

    Christie's press conference was just him wanting to hear himself speak while giving no real answers other than sideline coaching...he basically pulled a "Palin"...
