But that's where the problem is for the GOP. It's so fractured AND polarized right now, it's a catch-22. Throw up a moderate, you lose the social conservatives and you don't win. Throw up a conservative, and you lose the moderates. Neither side is willing to bend at the moment. And I don't see Christie being the one to mend that fence. He's already on record being hostiles towards GOP conservatives, he's not particularly a friend of the 2A crowd and he's a bit wishy washy on gay marriage.
He's the hot guy right now. That much is certain.
