Cruz, Jindal, et al. There are seriously viable candidates out there who aren't damned RINOs.

Name a few just for grins, BowTied. For the sake of this exercise, the candidate must have viable appeal with independents.

BTW, welcome to PC.

Welcome Sir. Nice to have some balance to the discussion.

I listen sometimes to Mark Levin although majority of the time I do not agree
with him.

Mark has been consistently emphasizing your position on Christie.

With Levin, it's difficult for me to get far enough with him to determine whether or not I agree. I find him to be about the most obnoxious person in media.

His ranting style can be disconcerting. However I rate his historical political
knowledge. You know you have to to adjust for slant and do your own homework.

I tend to read/listen to intelligent, level-headed, dispassionate people who are capable of discussing issues on their own merits as opposed to spewing venom-filled ideological rants. This pretty much keeps me away from talk radio, Fox, MSNBC and CNN. I do, however, watch Morning Joe while on my exercise bike in the morning and Fareed Zakaria on Sunday mornings. That's about it.

Life is to short to listen to some asshole's embittered, ideological rant (unless for comical value).
