I was hoping Fiorina would be polling better. But a Trump / Fiorina ticket would be fantastic.

Like Jeb Bush.

So you're the problem we're trying to solve.

A blowhard to put the left in their place and competent business women behind the scenes.

What's not to love?

Trump is going to run away with this thing if he wins Iowa.

Interesting to see Chris Christie finally making a move. I have to say, in the last few debates, I liked how he spoke directly to the camera, addressed issues relatively forthrightly, and seemed confident in who he was. His low poll numbers were confusing to me. And he has experience governing in a blue state, requiring him to be more moderate than red-state republicans have to be in order to get some things done. I'm not saying I like all his positions or that he's a perfect candidate, but none of this group are, and he's not as bad as he's been made out to be. I think he deserves to be top 5-6 at least in this field.

Christie is getting his moment. The question is whether he can make it last

I say this in the most academic way possible: would the US population elect a big guy like Christie?

4% is making a move? Is that within the margin of error for 0%?

Not currently. Way before the advent of television the country elected William Howard Taft (315 pounds) and Grover Cleveland (260).

For reference Chris Christie is 230 lbs.

He set you up and you missed the follow up. The correct answer was:

"Only if he's 5'3"
