Christie to be bumped from next debate!

Aw, poor guy. First the NYT editorial:

And now this:

Awwww, pish posh. Can't y'all see, they're just jealous of how beloved he is by his constituents who overwhelmingly voted him in for a second term? NJ residents LOVE him. Really LOVE him. Haters, don't hate!

Too bad.

We're better off when his toxicity is absent from NJ.

I say they'll squeeze him in as they did Carly. It will be tougher, however, to squeeze Christie in.

He may not be leaner, but I'm afraid he will be meaner when he returns to NJ, humiliated by both national and state polls. Definitely will be looking for scapegoats, and those he can bully some more to restore his self esteem.

Could it be he is actually angling for the VP slot?

Watching Chris Hayes now: Christie's been bumped to the kids' table. Lindsey Graham and Pataki have been bumped totally -- no debate for them!

But c'mon, he cares about addiction! That's gotta count for something, right? Hello? Anybody?

How does performing poorly in the polls and being relegated to the junior league help in this regard?

I get your general point, it seems like many of these folks must see some future professional benefit by staying in the race...as the odds for most look pretty grim for winning the nomination.

Why can't they just let all of them be in one debate rather than this big kid/little kid nonsense?

if he's angling for VP, he's wasting his time. He didn't make it through Romney's vetting process. Why would he think after everything that's happened the last few years at the PA he'd pass this time?

Well, that's what they deserve when they all conduct themselves like children.

Too unwieldy with 14 candidates on stage. Perhaps two debates with 7 and 7 randomly chosen and as candidates keep dropping out lower the numbers until you have maybe only 5 left and then put them all on one stage.

Today, I read a post on a political website, Democratic Underground. Christie was described as a Tony Galento wannabe. Now, how in hell did someone remember Two Ton Tony Galento?

I met him in Millburn. He was a nice guy.

Train station plaza in Orange named for him. He was fun in On The Waterfront.
