Christie's dad thinks he'd win

Via National Review:

“I know he’d be a great president,” Mr. Christie says. “He has always been a leader. I think he would beat [President] Obama.”

But don’t get too excited. “I’ve never asked him if he’s going to run,” Mr. Christie cautions.

“I trust if it’s going to happen, I’d be hearing it from him. I tell him, just let me hear any good news, but let me hear it first, or at least before you announce it to the world.”

What strikes me most is that his dad doesn't refer to Christie's frequent denials about running, but of course, I might be reading too much into this.
