A MIRVed ICBM of Derp

Sometimes I just have to believe that Politico is in an arms race to publish the most ridiculous crap imaginable. Today was a banner date. In the new issue of Politico magazine, columnist Daniel Allott (currently the Dean the SlatePitch School of Journalism) argues that far from being a liability, Chris Christie’s weight will likely be a big asset in a potential 2016 presidential – apparently as a signal to show that the party is not out of touch with obese, middle-aged white men. Really.
