My friend Duane Patterson, producer of the Hugh Hewitt show, thinking about the ramifications of Chris Christie’s classic “I came here to govern” declaration: “Christie may have put himself on the 2012 ticket with that video.”
I love Christie, but I hope not. The last time the GOP put a charismatic, funny rising star who had only spent a few years as governor in the number-two slot on the ticket, the state quickly lost that governor and the big winners turned out to be Fox News Channel and the Discovery Channel.
