republicans have to do? what lessons do republicans take from his race? >> i think christie is an averagetype of the gubernatorial type part of the party. it's impossible to govern the country from capitol hill. the last time that happened was when joe canon was speaker early in the 20th century. even newt couldn't do that and he was probably the most powerful speaker since canon. it looks messy and ugly and that's what's hurting the party. if you tornado to christie and walker and kasich, they have the same principles. they have the same basic principles of limited government, lower tax, more next government and stronger families. chris christie is pro life, pro marriage. he's tried to cut income taxes. he's held the line on property taxes.
