First, a guy who, while dancing in a sky box at a Bruce Springsteen concert, "simultaneously bear-hugs and headlocks" his human services commissioner and his community affairs commissioner, can't be all bad. Second, I live in New Jersey, so Christie's getting the VP nod
would be a kind of brush with greatness. The third reason occurred to me as I was watching the exchange below, between a Christie detractor and a Christie
defender. It isn't that Christie defender Matt Lewis won the argument; it's that I realized that everything Christie detractor Bill Scher dislikes about
Christie would make this an extremely entertaining presidential campaign. And, as a bonus: If Scher is right that Christie's entertainment assets are
political liabilities, then a Romney-Christie ticket would be unlikely to prevail in November. What's not to like?See web-only content:
