The Christie Surge

[CaptUSA]

Here it comes...

They've already started hinting at it. (This is eerily similar to how they started to pump Fiorina prior to that earlier debate.)

It's Christie's turn to try to carry the establishment's water. Rubio tried, but you know how incredibly awkward he looks carrying water.

Mark my words. Rubio will slip up a little and Christie will take up the slack. Expect the media to push his debate performance. His fundraising numbers will skyrocket after tonight and his poll numbers will see a modest increase.

Rand must be incendiary. This debate will make or break him

uh no.

in fact, ive said for awhile now, i think the debates are currently meaningless to rand's campaign.

Rand needs to pump his electability in the general. All others will fail against Clinton, mainly because they're so much like her.

Rand is the differentiator, for all the right reasons.

Christie, btw, is standing next to Rand during the debate, so a Christie pump can serve Rand well.

Rand will do just fine if he has a night like the last debate. Tonight is the night they take down Trump, everything else is going to be secondary to that. The only debate that might "make or break" is the Jan 28 one, because it is so close to caucus day.

There's that new debate in mid January also, on Fox Business.

All the big GOPe donors will be running to Christie's campaign now . . .

That one won't be as big a deal either. The RNC is rewarding them for not attacking their candidates in their last debate, plus this is the one where they pick the 1 or 2 moderates to get behind.

Someone should put a "TRUMP RALLY BELOW!" sign outside of that place.

(It could work.)

 

[NaturalMystic]

The rest say the goal is to beat Hillary Clinton yet what does it matter if they hold similar views on policy. I get aggravated when people dwell on Obama being the problem when he is simply just a mouth piece of the problem.

 

[69360]

They all will get a turn to "surge". Didn't you read the script?

Is that hole Christie's mouth, his navel, or some other orifice?

 

[Brian4Liberty]

The media has been pushing Christie hard for the past week.

 

[TheNewYorker]

Christie and surge should not be in the same sentence

Just as a side note, Trump needs to be thinking about these events very carefully. He owns a lot of soft targets. I'm sure he has people who have a plan in place, but you never know. He needs to demonstrate that he can act personally and decisively, not just delegate responsibility to good people.

 

[RandPaul4Prez]

Christie, Jeb, Florina, Kasich, and Carson have no chance. It time that they drop out.

That is his asshole.

Fuck you Frank

Every debate article with winners and losers has Christie as a winner.

Notice he didn't go after Rand as much as he had in other debates after being called out?
