Republican pundits have been clamoring for new blood in the GOP presidential primary race since Texas Governor Rick Perry’s debate performance last Thursday. But so far it looks like their first choice Chris Christie is no longer an option.
New Jersey governor and potential presidential candidate Chris Christie was hospitalized Thursday, after complaining of shortness of breath.
Although Christie has publicly stated he is not running for president in 2012, Republican activists have been trying to persuade the outspoken fiscal conservative to get in the race.
