[…]    Uh-huh. And therein lies the dilemma for today's GOP thanks SOLELY to the collective, AND insidious, efforts of the GOP having LONG AGO embraced the *Southern Strategy,* which was later combined with Atwater's scorched earth strategy…which was later carried on by his protege, Karl Rove and company, which had (up til the end of G.Dubya's 2nd term as President), enjoyed with reckless abandonment, bamboozling millions of neoConfederate Christianists who now refer to themselves as "Tea-partiers." Of course, they're actually the Repub "base."    Add to ALL that: The changed role of the American so-called "News" media over the years.   Cable news media, in particular, ceased long ago simply reporting the "news." adopting the SLIMY MO of manufacturing and hyping FAKE news and political discourse, shaping public opinion based on peddling false information and propaganda..Oh! and PICKING Our Presidential candidates aided in no small measure by oodles and oodles of (drum-roll please)…POLLS. <rolling>   But I digress.   In short: Christie's momma didn't raise no fool. He looked out over the wrecked landscape of his beloved GOP and for the umpteenth time on this matter said TO.THE.MEDIA and Repub "elites"…</rolling></span><span></span><span>…"THANKS.BUT.NO.THANKS." </span>
