Like this will stop the media from begging Christie to run.

wax_on		2011-10-04 11:29:07 AM

Bet he'd run for a big mac.

whyRpeoplesostupid		2011-10-04 11:29:09 AM

What, the Koch brothers can't come up with enough money?

Loud_Mouth_Soup		2011-10-04 11:29:25 AM

I'm pretty sure he'll run for the buffet table.

markie_farkie		2011-10-04 11:29:28 AM

He's comfortable running to the Sizzler, it seems.

Homer Nixon		2011-10-04 11:29:38 AM

He'll get a NJ State Police chopper to fly him there.

Slu		2011-10-04 11:29:45 AM

He probably makes daily runs for the border for 4th meal.

what_now		2011-10-04 11:30:30 AM

didn't we get this EXACT same headline a few days ago?

Loud_Mouth_Soup		2011-10-04 11:30:42 AM

Will also run for:

Now the GOP will have an out when the infighting leads to their loss in 2012----If Christie had run we would have nominated him and he would have won. It's all the fat boys fault!!

IKanHazaBukkit		2011-10-04 11:31:10 AM

The only runs Gov. Christie takes part in are of the excrement kind.

JerseyTim		2011-10-04 11:31:18 AM

I'd love to attend the press conference. After he gave his little speech saying how he would not run for president, I'd ask him, "Are you leaving any possibility of running open?"

rattchett		2011-10-04 11:31:38 AM

He may still waddle for President, however.

BunkoSquad		2011-10-04 11:31:45 AM

WHAR GIRTH CERTIFICET, WHAR

Snarfangel		2011-10-04 11:31:51 AM

I'm not running for President, either. Christie is doing this just to upstage me.

Barbigazi		2011-10-04 11:34:30 AM

"A" for effort, big guy, but that isn't going to stop them.

MaudlinMutantMollusk		2011-10-04 11:34:41 AM

It'd be more of a waddle, anyway

mangomango		2011-10-04 11:35:23 AM

He's fatter than Michael Moore.

mcreadyblue		2011-10-04 11:35:34 AM

Christie will be an old shoe in 4 years. He missed his chance to be president.

He could have beaten Perry.

Now Perry will have a cake walk to DC.

Cythraul		2011-10-04 11:36:02 AM

That's too bad. They haven't had to make special living arrangements in the White House since Taft. It would have been like old times.

Hung Like A Tic-Tac		2011-10-04 11:36:17 AM

He was distracted:

I thought that was Santorum?

Christie changes his mind after hearing there's a potential cake walk

Candygram4Mongo		2011-10-04 11:36:57 AM

markie_farkie: He's comfortable running to the Sizzler, it seems.

There's a Sizzler restaurant in NJ? Really?

//why yes, I am fat
///but not as fat as I sound

Now Perry will have a cake walk to DC.

Proper attacks and grilling by the Democrats could eviscerate him and the GOP.

So I'll mark it down as a "maybe."

what_now: didn't we get this EXACT same headline a few days ago?

Yeah, but we'll have a few more weeks of pundit "No doesn't mean no", it means "I have 24 hours of airtime to fill and not urge to do real journalism."

Christie changes his mind after hearing there's a potential cake walk. Expresses strong disapproval of the walking part.

GWLush		2011-10-04 11:39:34 AM

Anybody call this dude fat yet?

shroom		2011-10-04 11:39:34 AM

How is this even news? Christie said last week he wouldn't run, said last month he wouldn't run, and said all last year he wouldn't run. In fact, at no time since becoming governor has ever said he would run. How is this breaking news?

Emrick		2011-10-04 11:40:11 AM

I am glad he isn't running. He would have given Obama a run for his money.

oldass31		2011-10-04 11:40:19 AM

On a related note, whatever happened to Krispy Kreme?

21-7-b		2011-10-04 11:40:19 AM

my spidey-sense, combined with readings of my crystal-ball, the tea-leaves, the cards, nostradamus, the teachings of the prophet st noodly of appendage, the seance i held with great aunt esme, the number of noises the dog made when i farked it last night, the voices in my head and the subliminal messages transmitted by the lizard people are all telling me it is nearly time for

I did!

GWLush: Anybody call this dude fat yet?

I did. But I did it by using a witty historical reference. Because I'm smart.

/I'm proud of myself.

=======================================================

"We're so upset at the current crop of extremist assholes. We, instead, need a really fat slightly less extremist asshole to run. Please run!"

Lando Lincoln		2011-10-04 11:41:39 AM

what_now: didn't we get this EXACT same headline a few days ago?

Stay tuned next Tuesday for "Seriously, I really am not going to run."

And then Wednesday's "But is he going to run or not? We'll have to wait and see" article.

Confabulat		2011-10-04 11:42:08 AM

No way would we elect a giant tubby President. No way. Blacks and women, sure. But tubby guys are gross.

bluelancer03		2011-10-04 11:42:11 AM

Makes me wonder: If Christie were of average build or even toned, what would the liberal hate-sphere be telling everyone to attack him with?

I guess it's a moot point......HURRRRRR HE'S FAT HURP PUDDING DERP

Loud_Mouth_Soup		2011-10-04 11:42:18 AM

GWLush: Anybody call this dude fat yet?

I only inferred he was fat.

He's fat.

There, now I've said it.

Yes, Rockaway NJ.

cram_hole		2011-10-04 11:43:02 AM

How is it breaking news that he's going to say something he's said 40 times before?

God I hate the news now.

rattchett		2011-10-04 11:43:14 AM

GWLush: Anybody call this dude fat yet?

He's fat? Now I feel mean.

I thought he was a cripple.

Perry would get absolutely clobbered in the general election. Romney might be a different story.

You sound fat.. and republican.

Funk Brothers		2011-10-04 11:44:20 AM

Christie will now have pizza come to his doorstep thanks to Herman Cain since Christie ordered it.

monoski		2011-10-04 11:45:42 AM

Did anyone else read this as run like jogging the first time around?

//that would be a sight

Loucifer		2011-10-04 11:45:46 AM

Ice cream truck.
