If Chris Christie ever runs for president, America will continue to lead the world in fat jokes. That is abundantly clear to anyone who was paying close attention to the vast peanut gallery that is Twitter last night. Comedians, who have embraced the form as much as any other artist, were hard at work reacting to the Republican National Convention in Tampa, Fla., especially the major speeches of Mr. Christie, the New Jersey governor, and Ann Romney, wife of the G.O.P. nominee, Mitt Romney. Relying on Witstream, a Web site that collects tweets from the comedy world, as well as some searching, I hereby offer a few of the best jokes suitable for a family newspaper.
A fun thing to do at the Republican National Convention would be to get onstage and ask if anyone knows a good place to buy khakis.

I think the thing I'm most surprised about is that a high school girl would talk to a boy named Mitt. #RNC #alsothenameofaglove

If Chris Christie's speech ends with him doing Chris Farley's Chippendale dance, I'll vote for Romney. #RNC

Christie is a good man, the fat jokes are cheap. He kept flags at half mast for Whitney Houston. Cuz he was too tired to raise them all way.
