Chris Christie may be the most popular potential Republican vice-presidential candidate, mostly due to his budget cuts and standing up to government employee unions, and he now says that he just might end up as Mitt Romney's running mate. However, what Romney would need to consider is that Christie has one very big problem - he's an appeaser and defender of all that is Islam.

As Daniel Pipes and Steven Emerson point out in detail, Christie has hugged a terrorist organization member, abridged free-speech rights, scorned concern over Islamization, and opposed law enforcement counterterrorism efforts. Whenever an issue touching on Islam arises, Christie takes the Islamist side against those -- the DHS, state senators, the NYPD, even the ACLU -- who worry about lawful Islamism eroding the fabric of American life.
