That story is probably "he doesn't threaten our worldview, and he'd lose the election anyway".

@St_Rev And they think he's the sort of person Republicans would want running for President. That's meaningful on its own. -
@gattsuru They keep predicting the rise of the New Republicans: mildly deviant Democrats who know their place. -
@St_Rev Maybe. Not sure Christie's their idea of mildly deviant : minimum wage, gay marriage vetoes, some of his energy policy. -
@gattsuru Those are issues that don't threaten the true sacredness of Washington either way. Christie bows to Leviathan, it's in his bones. -
@gattsuru Gay marriage in particular is something that has zero impact either way on the exercise of power. -
@gattsuru So it's an acceptable heresy--in fact, a good one, since (in their view) it will help keep him from being elected. -
@gattsuru I could be wrong ofc. Trying to draw out an impression I have about NPR's peculiar power-worship.
