Yet, that did not stop the Governor from speculating about the qualities that would be appealing in an eventual choice.
Christie said we need "someone in the White House who will lead and take risks," adding that "the people will support you if you make tough decisions even if they don't necessarily agree with you."
But the Governor once again disavowed any interest in the presidency. "I'm not gonna say it's not flattering to be considered" [as a possible presidential candidate] Christie said. "If you're in politics, you've got an ego to begin with, so yes, it's flattering," the Governor explained. But Christie reiterated that he's still not going to run. The answer remains "no."
He said that "we learn a lot about a candidate during a campaign when we see how that candidate operates and how that candidate reacts."
So, Christie said he's "still shopping" and he told the members of the news media: "I'll let you know when I'm ready to buy."
Bottom line: No, he's not running and he doesn't know who he'll be supporting for the GOP nomination.
