4063773612?profile=originalShould Chris Christie’s New Jersey Landslide Win Matter To Tea Party In 2014?  – photo credit: Luigi Novi

You can literally see the frothing at the mouths of RINO media pundits and key establishment Republicans over the trouncing by New Jersey Chris Christie Governor of his Democrat sacrificial lamb opponent. Even though there was never any real serious doubt that Christie would win against a middling gubernatorial candidate like state Sen. Barbara Buono. According to the Christian Science Monitor and other news organizations, Christie had already been conceded the election win when major democrat donors ignored supporting their own candidate.

Now according to his frequent moderate and liberal supporters who want Christie to be the anointed one to take on a possible Hillary Clinton presidential candidacy, the trash talking against the Tea Party has already begun. The real question is why it should matter to conservatives if Christie lost or won, when the battle for the American heartland is going to be fought in 2014 and not in 2016.

The often terrified moderates in the GOP establishment sought cover under the umbrella of Christie’s middle of the road protection. The New York Times suggested that many Republicans were terrified by the Tea Party and their overwhelming grassroots supporters. Now these same GOP officials “were cheered by Mr. Christie’s success.”

Just look at the political landscape that this self proclaimed political buddy and pal of Obama created. It was Governor Christie who came to the aid of Obama’s faltering presidential re-election woes after being lambasted by Mitt Romney in the first round of the presidential debates. Obama, who appeared visibly bewildered and befuddled as he tried time and time again to attack Romney during the debate, was swept aside like a rag doll by the republican challenger.

Then came the horror and tragedy of Hurricane Sandy which ripped through the Eastern shores of New York and New Jersey. Obama, who was being held accountable by Fox News and other conservative talkers over Benghazi, needed a safe haven to lick his well earned political wounds and soon found comfort and aid in the huge welcoming arms of Chris Christie. The New Jersey governor not only gave Obama a life line as he walked and skipped along the New Jersey damaged shoreline, but he all but said the president was his new best friend.

So it is in this context, that somehow a Republi-crat governor from a purple state who has managed to willingly, hold hands with democrat leaders and concede on conservative values and principles to be taken seriously as a Republican nominee for president. Well, the moderates in the party and on the alphabet soup networks are beginning to anoint Christie while also spelling the death knell of the Tea Party.

What this premature coronation seems to forget is that while Christie was doing the easy winner’s lap around the state of New Jersey, the real story of the life and vibrancy of the Tea Party and the failure of Obama and his health care poison pill was being played out in Virginia that same night.

Christie????

Hi people, I was watching tv and saw Christie lovin up on Obama. What a rino Christie is.Would anyone here vote for that donut eating hog? Oh Barack I'm all for you and your agenda will you let me lay at your feet like a good little sheep?How can we rid ourselves of this ass before he gets started. We can't trust any of the administration to run the polls and make sure everything is on the up and up. Think Obama can buy enough people off to get Christie the Republician nomination? I am looking to get more involved with local Tea Party so I can make a difference.Sometime I feel so helpless. I love my freedom and the USA and I am ready to fight for both. But what can I do?I have written called faxed many congress people, joined groups given plenty cash, what more can I do short of something no so legal? I just stated I like my freedom so what can I/we do to get our point across.I have two democrats in congress for Virginia and they don't answer my mail anymore, what's up with that?Warner and Kaine got new email this morning:Senator, I would think by now you and the rest of the left can see where your agenda is taking this country.Do you want civil war? You know it looks like white Christians are being added to the endangered list. Everything your administration does is against the white Christian conservative public. Say bye bye to Boy Scouts hello to girly scouts.What a fucking joke this government is. Do you want to be known as one of the communists that destroyed the USA?Sounds like something to add to your resume'.WE THE PEOPLE demand you vote against the immigration bill and the UN Treaty. Both are completely against the Constitution of the United States. Also we will not tolerate any other attempts to control our DEFENSIVE WEAPONS. We need the protection from this insufferable sham government. Obama care need to go also I have good insurance and if you guys fuck it up I will not forget it. Stop riding the train to nowhere while you can.See you at the polls.I normally watch my language but I am getting more pissed off everyday. If I keep ranting, bad language or no, I'm gonna get on someone's list and I don't think it will be the GOOD list.Peace be with you all. Lock and load my friends, we may need it. MOLON LABE.

Christie to keynote, no slot for Palin

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie will deliver the keynote address at the Republican National Convention in Tampa later this month, while Sen. Marco Rubio (Fla.) will introduce Mitt Romney.

100922_chris_christie_hand_ap_328.jpg

“I’ll try to tell some very direct and hard truths to people in the country about the trouble that we’re in and the fact that fixing those problems is not going to be easy for any of them,” Christie told USA Today in an interview announcing his speech. He said he will describe his experiences in New Jersey as evidence that “the American people are ready to confront those problems head-on and endure some sacrifice.”

"As governor of New Jersey, Chris Christie has proven how bold Republican leadership gets results. He has fearlessly tackled his state’s most difficult challenges, while looking out for hardworking taxpayers,” said Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus, in a statement announcing the governor’s selection.

In terms of importance, the keynote speech is seen as second only to the speech of the presidential or vice-presidential nominee. It was the keynote speech in 2004 at the DNC that propelled Obama into public view, which should emphasize the importance many attribute to the keynote speaking slot. 

Christie is a very popular figure in the GOP. Some have even gone so far as to nick-name him a "rock star of the republican party." His popularity has not however been enough to stave off complaints about his being picked for the keynote position. These complaints have revolved around others who certain conservatives
believe are better suited to speak at the convention, namely, one Sarah Palin.

images?q=tbn:ANd9GcRyGPRAfB_lJhJEvs2fiILBWyst12sCjSd3w9hQmdm24lw6P1hy&width=342The former governor of Alaska remains a Tea Party favorite, but still seems to be out of place with the GOP establishment. Some have discussed the idea that perhaps Palin is simply too conservative for the establishment of the Republican Party, and so some conservative bloggers have cried out to 'Let Sarah Speak.' 

Palin is seen by 'grass-roots' conservatives as an electrifying figure that would excite the party base. Her not speaking at the Republican National Convention is seen by these same conservatives as a signal from the party establishment that they do not truly represent their interests in Washington. Some see her not speaking as a signal that party officials are not comfortable with the former governor.  Whatever the case, Palin fans are certainly upset.

“As I’ve repeatedly said, I support Mitt Romney and Paul Ryan in their efforts to replace President Obama at the ballot box, and I intend to focus on grassroots efforts to rally independents and the GOP base to elect Senate and House members so a wise Congress is ready to work with our new president to get our country back on the right path," said Palin in a statement to Fox News’s Greta van Susteren
