2012 GOP convention live, thread #9: Chris Christie kicks off 2016 campaign

Republican National Convention: The race to the bottom Watch live video here and join the conversation as we live blog the 2012 GOP convention.

7:36 PM PT: I wonder how long it will take for Chris Christie to congratulate Ann Romney on her speech.

7:39 PM PT: We're now several minutes into Chris Christie's speech. Unless I missed it, he hasn't recognized Ann Romney's speech, nor has he recognized Mitt Romney, who is in the convention hall with his wife.

7:40 PM PT: So far, the speech is: "Memememememememememememe." And: "We've become paralyzed by our desire to be loved." That almost sounds like a shot at a pander bear like Mitt Romney.


7:43 PM PT: Ann Romney said she wanted to talk about love. Chris Christie says the country is "paralyzed by a need to be loved."

7:45 PM PT: Okay, so, here's the visual:

Chris Christie feels his man boobs in 2012 GOP convention And no, it's not politically wise to feel yourself up on national TV.

7:46 PM PT:

Christie: "Tonight, we're going to choose respect over love."...  Ann Romney: "Tonight I want to talk to you about love,"
