I know you guys like him and all, but he's fatally flawed.  He supports the Park51 community center. 

Based on the reactions of other Republicans, I'm not sure you can stay a viable party leader and still support Muslims in any way, shape, or form.

Using your logic of "Based on the observations of other Republicans", it would be fair to say that most Muslims are violent jihadists based on the reactions to the Park51 controversy and the planned Koran burning.  The threat of violence has even been on the MSM.

That's a poor comparison. It's well known that the extremists of the parties control the primaries, because they're the ones who are both registered to vote in that party's primaries and who care enough to vote in the primary.

That was my point.  Extremist minorities control the airwaves.  Either that or Islam is a violent religion.

He supports their right to build it there.  He does not wish to comment on the wisdom or become a political pawn in the discussion.   I don't see that as a flaw.  It puts him on the Libertarian side of things.  The current administration is forcing the public to employ more reason, and therefore become more libertarian in nature.  I think this makes him more attractive to everyone.

When attacked by a mob of clowns, always go for the juggler.

Which, interestingly, is exactly Obama's position. Despite that, it's been said that he's carrying water for Muslims.

That's because he was born in Kenya and was raised a Muslim, silly.

And therefore would be unsupportable by the GOP base.

That's not only an unpopular position within the GOP, it disqualifies you from national leadership.

Nope.  Got it from my own wittle bitty eyes and ears. 

If you look around, a position like Christie's on Park51 is pretty out of sync within the GOP these days, or at least the people speaking publicly for the party.

Can you think of anyone else who's come out with Christie's opinion?

Once the elections are over they'll move on.
