Chris Christie’s Reelection Campaign Receives ‘Unprecedented’ Financial Support

BRIDGEWATER, N.J. (CBS) – The reelection campaign for New Jersey Governor Chris Christie is receiving “unprecedented” support when it comes to raising funds.

The “Chris Christie For Governor” Monday filed nearly $6.2 million in funds raised from an unprecedented 14,260 contributors.

Christie announced his re-election bid in November of last year and the primary is June 4th.

“Governor Christie’s style of strong leadership continues to resonate and draw an unprecedented show of support for the Governor’s reelection from inside and outside of the state, and from across the donor spectrum,” said William J. Palatucci, Christie for Governor Chairman.

Good thing the teabaggers will scuttle his bid for the WH in 2016. That is all I'm saying

and Hillary will be winning many red states too.
I predict 450-475.
Christie's only hope in the future would be a cabinet post (just not transportation secretary not after his veto of a new tunnel from NJ to NY.) One member of a cabinet is normally the other party. Perhaps Homeland Security if Janet Napolitano is the VP.
He might though be picked by Jeb for his VP nominee though that will be a losing proposition Imho

(the electoral thingy of course is based on the democratic nominee being Hillary.)

Just because Bill may have won a couple of southern states, does not mean Hillary will.

Hillary is beloved in all the NE states, which would without her be CC's base.
Hillary will win NY by a landslide, and NJ

now, if CC were a democratic candidate and HIllary did not run, perhaps he could come close to the nomination

Shame that McGreevey got tossed because he was gay. He should have stayed and told the haters to stay out of his private life.
