New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie will deliver the keynote speech at the Republican National Convention later this month in Tampa.
The Republican National Committee made the official announcement Tuesday.
“As governor of New Jersey, Chris Christie has proven how bold Republican leadership gets results. He has fearlessly tackled his state’s most difficult challenges, while looking out for hardworking taxpayers,” RNC Chairman Reince Priebus said in a statement. “He is a leader of principle and conviction, and I am excited to hear him address the Republican National Convention as our keynote speaker.”
Christie has long been a rising star in the Republican party.

I wonder what the Gop’s gameplan is now that they named Ryan to the ticket? If Christie isn’t V.P. now (2013) then maybe they have some sort of use for him if and when Rommney wins. Sometimes the Secretary of State does more then the V.P. ???
Governor Christie is a man of integer ty he is something the GOP can be proud of, he believes in good and fights for it, he doesn’t get scared of the media or anyone else, I believe he will stay on as NJs Governor for now and work closely behind the doors and really learn the ins a nd outs of washington before going there, Christie is still a young man.
