2016...Christie vs Cuomo

[flabbybody]

Let's assume Obama wins a second term and there's no incumbent in 2016.
My prediction is that Chris Christie will win the Republican nomination. Hilary Clinton will love making $200,000 for 40 minute dinner talks and retire from public life. Andrew Cuomo will dance to an easy victory in the Dem primary.

It will be an interesting race. Christie will lose 100 lbs next year on the Rex Ryan diet surgery routine which will make him look more like a serious leader. Andrew will have some cosmetic work around his eyes so he won't look so much like a zombie.

You make them sound like a couple of regular surgery addicts. Can we get some photoshopped pics to imagine what they'll look as post-ops? By the way, both of these guys are going to have problems with their base. I see a Hillary/Rubio matchup as much more likely.

I'd like to see Christie go from Abdullah The Butcher-size to Vader. Wonder if he keeps his wallet under his boobs like Abby does.

my political RADAR:
Rubio looks like the white trash manager of my supermarket who informs me that my food coupons have expired by one day and I have to pay full price... he's got the face of a total dip shit loser.

Hillary is way too old to spend 16 months of her life in Holiday Inn's campaigning in Iowa and New Hampshire primaries.

What are you...a little old lady who feeds local stray cats?

At this point that sounds like an interesting match-up...but like you, I'm a North Easterner and I'm not sure the rest of the country(...or the political parties)..see it the same way.
They have quite a few years ahead of them to create some political gaffes....hmmm...good thread.

Ryan V Cuomo?

I read in this article in today's Independent that Elizabeth Warren is poised to take back Ted Kennedy's Massachusetts seat for the Democrats, and may use it to launch her own bid for the White House in 2016. Even if one pencils this in along with Cuomo, would this not mean that yet again the Democrats had gone for someone without Southern connections? There was a time when the assumption was that the USA would be choosing its Presidents from the Southern states (including California and the west) -has Obama begun a new trend? Romney is not a Southerner, nor would Chris Christie be should he decide to run.

As for Hillary Clinton, I'm with Flabbybody on this, I am not even sure if she wants another 4 years in government -or if Obama wants her there. And as we mentioned before, there is always Chelsea bringing up the rear, so to speak...

How about Warren/Clinton as the all-female 2016 ticket?

That would be a fascinating combination. But perhaps Chelsea Clinton has not got enough experience - nor would she have - by the time of that election.

I think you are right about hilary. Didn't she already announce she is stepping down from her job if there is a second Obama Presidency?

I'm looking for to Malcom's Dad versus Walter White. I'm still undecided.

Walter White is my pick for sure. He better hold onto the blue states.
