America Needs a Leader -- Should We Advertise On Milk Cartons for One?

At about the very moment Gov. Chris Christie was saying that “now is not my time,” a new poll surfaced that demonstrated what might have been. Echoing Marlon Brando under a headline of “CHRISTIE COULDA’ BEEN A CONTENDER,” a Quinnipiac University survey found that the New Jersey governor would have started with a share of the top spot in the GOP field and defeated President Obama in a head-to-head matchup.


Woulda, coulda, shoulda.


We’ll never know if Christie had the right stuff to go all the way, but his decision not to try is a disappointment. The clamor for him illustrated the belief among many voters, not all of them Republican, that America can do better than Obama or Mitt Romney, Rick Perry, Herman Cain and the rest of the GOP gaggle.
