Could you imagine where Mitt Romney would be right now had he picked Chris Christie as his VP

I'm starting to see the smear tactics the right-wing is doing on Christie simply because Christie is doing the job he was elected to do - serve New Jersey and be there in times of great need.

I just read an article where Romney team is claiming Christie was their first choice but it was Mitt that decided that Ryan was a better choice. My guess is Team Romney wants to belittle Christie's sudden 'about face' towards the end of the campaign (which btw had NOTHING to do with Romney & Politics and EVERYTHING about the fact that part of New Jersey is underwater).

But seriously, if Christie was the VP pick we could be in serious trouble right now. Christie is doing a bang-up job over there and would have given Romney that last minute 'presidential' look needed to win this election. Maybe even turn a few solid blue states into red.

But just as an FYI - being a politician at the right place during these national emergencies does NOT equate to winning presidential elections. If they did we'd be campaigning against President Guiliani on his re-election bid.
