NJ Governor Chris Christie has decided to pursue the Republican nomination.
I liked him a lot several years ago because of his pi-partisanship, but I'm not as sweet on Christie these days.
I worry about his ability to effectively manage staff and crises -- I think Bridgegate really hurt him.
Still, I'd take Christie over most of the other Republican candidates.
Christie's in New Hampshire today and is calling for a raise in age for Social Security and a cut to some senior benefits via overhauls to Social Security, Medicaid and Medicare.
