New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is reconsidering his decision not to enter the 2012 presidential race — and he says he will let top Republican donors know within days about his plans, Newsmax has learned
How does this change the race? Will you guys vote for him?





Doesn't make a difference.
Doesn't make a difference. Huntsman and maybe Romney are still the best candidates if the GOP wants to win in 2012.
This country is so fucked.

Christie isn't ready. Romney
Christie isn't ready. Romney or Perry are going to get the nod. Republicans will solidify their control of the House and I PRAY take the Senate. Obama is going to be one and done. Sadly it is one too many, but whatever.

Christie is just another
Christie is just another overhyped status quo RINO.
The establishment is desperate for an alternative to Perry now that his terrible record is getting aired out.
Seems like they're scrambling to ensure Ron Paul, the most conservative Congressman in history, does not get the nomination.
Obama is of course a disaster. But just replacing Obama with any Republican is not going to solve the deep structural problems in our economy and government. The vast majority in Congress are inept, loyal to special interests, and/or more interested in their own self-aggrandizement than substantial reform.
You know, everyone I meet
You know, everyone I meet these days is a Ron Paul supporter (a very encouraging thing, imo), YET, when I see the polls I see him being crushed by Romney and Perry. Makes me wonder if Dr. Paul's supporters are actually even going out to vote for him..
Perry's support is fading.
Perry's support is fading. Romney is going to be a hard sell due to his health care plan in MA, support for TARP, and the general perception of him as an empty suit.
Paul has the most solid base out of any candidate. His numbers are only going to rise.
It's an uphill battle with the media blackout on the good doctor but the right conditions may surface to push him ahead.
A Paul vs Obama debate would be priceless. He would destroy Obama in the eyes of his base.

The thought of a Paul Obama debate makes me wet. Obama would get slaughtered. Sadly, the media blackout isn't Paul's biggest problem, it's the fact that this country is so uneducated and ignorant that hurts him the most.

Great point. I think the media is in large part culpable for the public's ignorance. If it were not for the media gatekeepers, general political awareness would be in better standing. At some point, responsibility does rest on the people to see through the nonsense. This shift is occurring. The credibility of the establishment media is in decline as evidenced by viewership numbers and polling data.
Voters are becoming increasingly discontent with our current politicians. Unfortunately, many seem to be embracing a new set of characters offered by the same influence peddlers who sold them the previous lemons.
Not only does Ron Paul have
Not only does Ron Paul have zero chance to get the GOP nomination, his policy ideas are absolutely moronic and irresponsible, from his position on the Federal Reserve all the way to his position on Iran. Ron Paul has solid base of support--it's virtually all people under 30, and most of that support is among college students. I was at CPAC 2010 where Ron Paul won the straw poll--his supporters were there like flies on sh*t and all of his supporters are moronic, ignoramus college students who don't know what the flying f*ck they're talking about. I am so f*cking sick of hearing about Ron Paul. He's the most unserious candidate since Pat Buchannan in 1992. Jesus f*cking Christ!

I don't even....
For the record, in the 2008
For the record, in the 2008 campaign, at this point (which would be Sept 2007), Giuliani and Fred Thompson were the leaders for the GOP primary, with McCain trailing way behind. Yet he still managed to catch up and take the nomination. Just because Perry and Romney are the leaders right now does not mean in any way they will get the nomination. Any one of the others is perfectly capable of coming back in this race; odds of someone new joining and succeeding are pretty low, but its certainly possible.
Also remember, Obama was pretty far behind Hilary at this point as well, and pulled off a come from behind victory in the primaries. Just because the media spoon feeds one candidate to the public this early in the race does not mean that he or she will be successful come primary season.
looking for that pick-me-up to power through an all-nighter?
