He's basically just a brash, tough-talking moderate with a pretty good sense of certain issues I care about a lot – such as mass incarceration. His soft-spoken counterpart in Indiana, Mitch Daniels, is similarly savvy when it comes to our penal system and the War on Drugs.
> Now that Gary Johnson islikely moving over to the Libertarian Partyafter being almost universally snubbed as a Republican, the remaining anti-drug-war candidate is Ron Paul. Paul doesn't have quite the charisma of someone like Chris Christie. But Christie isn't running so if the drug war is an issue you care about, Ron Paul is your best bet -- certainly much better on the issue than the current president.
> I disagree with Paul on lots of things, but he and Christie are both right that the drug war has failed. It failed a long time ago.http://www.forbes.com/sites/erikkain/2011/11/30/chris-christie-the-drug-war-has-failed/
