Christie in new veep tease

WASHINGTON — New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie is at it again. He flirted yesterday with the idea of becoming the GOP vice-presidential candidate on Mitt Romney’s ticket — but nevertheless insisted that he “absolutely believes” it won’t happen.

“If I’m approached, I will listen, but my inclination — I want to make it very clear — is that I want to stay governor of New Jersey,” Christie told NBC’s “Meet the Press.”
