The never-boring NJ Governor, Chris Christie, is prepping to be the headliner speaker at tonight’s GOP convention. But yesterday morning, he got a little “warm up” in by speaking to the CA delegation. Hugh Hewitt served as MC for the event, and Meg Whitman (former candidate for Gov, huge Mitt supporter, and accomplished CEO–eBay & Hewlett Packard) introduced the Governor.
I love how Gov. Christie, in the video immediately below, puts the responsibility of Mitt getting elected squarely on each of our individual shoulders. It really is up to us folks! Let’s get it done and get Mitt in the White House!
TeamMRC’s own Paul Johnson was there as well, eating up Christie’s message. Paul is an alternate delegate for the CA delegation and is pictured below.
And this “Pin Guy” was pretty cool too!
As a bonus, in the following two short videos, Gov. Christie shares an experience where he relishes a Marine guard booting Barbara Streistand out of his reserved seat at White House function. (Sorry on the video quality).
In a Chris vs. Babs fight, I’d stick with Chris! Good luck and prayers for him and Ann Romney tonight as they each make the biggest speeches of their lives.
Jeff has been blogging for Romney since living in Iowa in 2006, when, as a physician, he was drawn to study Romney’s MA healthcare reform plan. A native of California, Jeff now claims to be a proud southern transplant (he currently lives and practices as a vitreoretinal surgeon in Birmingham with his wife and six kids) having lived in Georgia, Alabama, and Louisiana for nearly all of the last 15 years. His recent hobby is doing triathlons, having completed his first (and only) Ironman Triathlon this past May.
Jeff, thanks for another great convention report!
As a Californian, I’m a big fan of Hugh Hewitt and Meg Whitman. I am goo-goo-ga-ga over Chris Christie!
Loved Christie’s reminder that we can’t fall down on the job these next 70 days or so to get Mitt and Paul elected. He exhorted everyone to take action! “This is not a spectator sport.”
I’m looking forward to every minute of the convention, but tonight I’m especially looking forward to hearing Gov Christie and Ann Romney speak.
Great photo of MRC’s Paul Johnson, too!
In this election we shouldn’t dismiss CA and NY. Who knows we may see CA, NY turn red :-)
MRC contributors are great. We appreciate the reporting. I’ll file petition for all MRC contributors sleepover at Lincoln bedroom in the WH under Prez Romney. Honestly, you guys deserve something.
