New Jersey Governor Chris Christie gave reporters the clearest indication yet that he may run for the White House in 2016, admitting at a Washington conference that he is, in fact, thinking about it.
CBS News veteran Bob Schieffer asked the Republican governor point-blank if he was thinking about running, and when he would decide for sure. Answering succinctly, Christie replied, “Yes, and later.”
The governor also spoke about the George Washington Bridge scandal that has plagued his office for months. He stated that months later, “there hasn’t been one suggestion that I knew anything” about the plan to create traffic gridlock in Fort Lee, New Jersey.
Christie also said he doesn’t think this will have any impact on his future political ambitions “because I didn’t do anything.”
