Friday, December 30, 2011

In the final days before the Iowa caucuses, an influential Republican leader campaigns for the former Massachusetts governor - New Jersey Governor Chris Christie.

The two held a rally Friday at a Hy-Vee West Lakes Shore grocery store in West Des Moines. Governor Christie announced his support of Romney in October; many Republicans hoped Christie would be a candidate for the Republican nomination.

The former Massachusetts Governor is currently leading in the latest Iowa caucuses poll alongside of Republican Congressman Ron Paul of Texas.  The Iowa Republican caucuses for President are scheduled for next Tuesday January 3rd.
