No one rules New Jersey governor out for 2016
Republicans used the Sunday talk shows to defend fellow GOPer Chris Christie after the New Jersey governor struck a contrite tone in his a press conference Friday, saying his connection with the traffic scandal won't rule out a presidential run.
Reince Priebus, the chairman of the Republican National Committee, praised Christie's handling of the debacle, saying the governor's one-and-a-half-hour-long press conference gave him the chance to show Americans he took 'ownership' for his 'mistakes.'
On Fox News Sunday, former George W. Bush White House advisor Karl Rove made a pointed contrast to a scandal of the Obama administration, and Hilary Clinton, a potential Christie opponent for the 2016 presidential campaign: 'The amount of attention paid to Chris Christie makes the coverage of Benghazi at the same time and the coverage of the IRS pale in comparison.'
