The Details
So, apparently, the oh-so-lovable Chris Christie is sticking around despite all the passionate pleas for him to throw in the towel. The former “bridge-blocking” governor is making a spectacle of himself in a 7-figure New Hampshire ad campaign, because who wouldn’t want more of Christie, right?
- Oh, look! Christie is gracing the screens once again, this time with a hefty New Hampshire ad buy.
- Even after being gently nudged to reconsider, Christie remains determined to stick to his guns, or should we say, his nachos?
- The campaign seems to suggest that Christie sees himself as the hero New Hampshire never asked for but apparently needs.
- With a budget big enough to feed several small countries, Christie’s ad buy is surely money well spent, right?
- It looks like Christie is really set on becoming synonymous with persistence, in some kind of parallel universe.
Counter-Points
- Perhaps all that New Hampshire air has fueled a newfound sense of importance in Christie.
- The ad buy could be Christie’s way of saving New Hampshire from the horror of not seeing his face on every available screen.
- Maybe Christie genuinely believes that persistence is key when it comes to overstaying your welcome in the political limelight.
- Clearly, Christie is the unsung hero in this story, refusing to give up on adoring public attention despite not actually being adored by the public.
- Who needs advice and popularity polls when you have the unwavering self-confidence of Chris Christie, right?
