In for a penny, in for 400lbs. I see.

Keep talking Christie and confine yourself to Jersey forever.

Would Christie ever say this? “We cannot expect to get support from the ´conservative´community if we do not make the ´conservative´community feel welcome and important in our party,”

I rest my case.

Sorry, but as long as the Demon-RATS are willing to give most minority groups more free stuff, they will continue to buy their loyalty.

Go tell it to The Boss, fat boi.

We are seeing the result of Christie devouring fame
with more passion than he devours a doughnut.

Christie has gotten on my last nerve. I´m done with him!

Pandering is so degrading.

I´m not overly fond of Governor Christie, but he is only stating the obvious. Of course, we need better relations with Latinos. I don´t see why some would consider the recognition of such a basic fact as "pandering". Who knows, we may eve get a few of their votes if we stop telling them they´re not real Americans and that we don´t like them.

Anyone who thinks by giving lawbreakers amnesty we will get their votes is delusional. Christie will never get my vote. Let him stay in NJ where they love him.

Ah yes, the Myth of the Conservative Latino, following on the heels of the wildly-successful Myth of the Blacks Who Are Opposed to Gay Marriage and Who Are a Natural Republican Constituency. Keep digging, GOP.

The trouble with "reaching out" is that you´re always expected to have a wad of other folks´ cash in it. The Democrats have cornered that market.

Is that a dog whistle for ´a path to citizenship´?

Of course, if Jeb Bush said something like this.....

Let Christie be Christie. It´s working for him. No use trying to punish him or ostracize him. That just makes him more easily manipulated by the enemy camp. He was never all that conservative anyway and he thoroughly enjoys being the bad boy. As they say about Mary´s lambs: Leave them alone and they´ll come home, wagging their tails behind them.

Yes, but do the Latinos want better relations with the GOP? That´s the question for me.

#8, I treat all Americans as brorhers and sisters. As to hyphenated Americans I refer you to Teddy Roosevelt´s speech at Cooper Union entitled ´hyphenated Americans´.

Grouping people together by race is a non starter for me. There are idiots of all shapes, sizes and colors as well as decent people of all shapes. sizes and colors.

Christie looks like an over ripe burrito.Accordingly, he has a leg up on that vote.

Exactly what does the Republican party do that
makes Latinos feel unwelcome and unimportant. Let´s ask Mr Cruz and Mr Rubio. They might have a better handle on it. Gov Christie made a great A>G> in NJ. He should have kept his day job.

As for #8, the illegals are NOT Americans and yes, I do not like law breakers. As for legal Latinos, I welcome them with open arms but not with handouts.

As far as I´m concerned, Christie is no longer part of "we."

#8- These illegal aliens are changing my country under my feet....I find it difficult to be nice.

You should too.

Shut up fatso! You are no conservative!

Technically, shouldn´t it be the other way around ? Shouldn´t the Latinos seek to have better relationships in their new homeland and assimilate ?

Remember when We were called Americans ?

Talk about burning bridges with smart people...

Listen, folks. Included in the word "Latinos" are, yes, illegals, but much more importantly, good solid Hispanic citizens. This is the group Christie speaks of. Some of them have lived here legally for generations. They serve in the military. They are your friends and neighbors. One poster says, no, they are not Americans. Yes, they are, as good Americans as any of us. No wonder they distrust the GOP. We lump them in with illegals without any attempt to understand the difference. At #8, I made no mention nor did I intend my comment to be about illegals. We have to learn to discuss Hispanic citizens and illegals differently. They are not the same thing.
