New Jersey Governor Chris Christie will take center stage this Tuesday in Tampa when he delivers the keynote address at the Republican National Convention, but the focus Thursday will be Mitt Romney, the Party’s pick to run against President Barack Obama. This morning, Republican National Committee Chairman Reince Priebus announced, “We Believe in America," will be the closing theme.
Missouri Congressman Todd Akin says he's "not yet begun to fight." Many top Republicans don't want him on the ballot against Democrat Claire McCaskill because of his comments about "legitimate rape." If he doesn't resign by 5 p.m. today a court order would be required to get him off the ballot. New Jersey Democratic State Committee chairman John Wisniewski is now weighing in on the issue.
Facing New Jersey reporters for the first time since Mitt Romney announced Wisconsin Congressman Paul Ryan as his vice presidential pick, Governor Chris Christie recalled how he learned he wasn't the right man for the job.
Governor Christie continues to prepare the keynote speech he'll deliver at the Republican National Convention in Florida next week, but he's not saying anything specific about the address.
There’s been little movement in the presidential horse race in the past two months according to a Monmouth University poll released early this afternoon. The pick of Paul Ryan as the presumptive GOP vice presidential nominee gets generally positive reviews, but hasn’t made much initial impact on U.S. voter intentions.
Republican vice presidential candidate Paul Ryan has been one of the harshest critics of President Barack Obama's economic stimulus plan. But months after Congress approved the nearly $800 billion package, the Wisconsin lawmaker was trying to steer money under the program to companies in his home state.
