Christie declined to run for president in 2012, but endorsed [[Mitt Romney]] early and at a pivotal time, when Romney was struggling with [[evangelical]] statements against him.  But Christie was passed over by Romney in his selection of a candidate for Vice President, despite how Christie might have attracted [[Catholic]] voters nationwide, as well as Irish and Italian American voters, and helped carry nearby [[Pennsylvania]].  Instead, Christie was picked to deliver the keynote address at the [[Republican National Convention]]. However, Christie earned the ire of [[conservative]]s with his fervent embrace of [[Barack Hussein Obama]] at a critical moment, likely costing Romney the election.

After promoting a key part of the [[homosexual agenda]] by signing into law a ban on [[conversion therapy]] for minors, Christie then ran for reelection without significant opposition by [[liberal]] donors.  Christie easily won reelection in 2013, winning in a landslide against Democrat Barbara Buono.
