The most important aspect of Chris Christie’s Traffic-Gate scandal is that a human life may have been lost because power hungry lowlifes played New Jersey thug politics. This is disgusting and heartbreaking.
Nevertheless, this scandal, as everything else that happens is being reported and viewed only in terms of the politics of its nature. Because of this fact Christie’s White House dream is over. For the Democrats, this scandal is a serious blow. They had so hoped that Christie would be the Republicans nominee in 2016, but alas that is over now.
In a reflexive response The Atlantic’s David Graham is reassuring everyone who will listen that “rumors of Chris Christie’s demise have been greatly exaggerated.” Really? How interesting. The Atlantic is wrong…...
The scandal is real. It includes the death of an innocent victim. Christie’s scandal takes place immediately adjacent to New York City the media capitol of the world.
Reporters don’t have to get out a map and a GPS to find a place to interview “victims,” even these lazy lumps can get this job done. People in Fort Lee don’t like Republicans to begin with.
There is a strong hatred of Christie among elected Democrats in New Jersey (please don’t be fooled the number who endorsed him – they did it out of fear) they will therefore not let this go.
Christie’s presidential fund raising machine is now shutdown even before it got rolling. High rolling Chamber of Commerce quislings will place their bets on different people.
Christie will get no help from grassroots Republicans and support from people like John Boehner will only underline why Christie is not acceptable to Republican rank and file.
The media desperately wants to latch onto anything they can talk about besides Barack Obama’s real scandals.

Come on,
the Dems are savaging Chrispie,
they are out to destroy him..
.they want him prosecuted.
.he must be a serious threat to them...
.. hispanics LOVE him, especially the ones without that documentation...Dems are scared....
Mika still likes him though, she says they are ‘personal friends’
As far as I’m concerned, that’s a good thing. Hope the coach is right on this one...
The GOPe meme "you'll vote for us anyway" is dead.
Lame analysis.
Traffic delays do not equate to risk of death, normally.
Just inconvenience.
When an airline cancels flights, do they get charged with death? When a utility closes a road for maintenance, do they get charged with a death?
It was a stupid move and Christie should have fired his entire election staff, not just one person. He’s in the appearance business and they hurt him badly.
Hillary vs Lib Fatso.
The media and DNC painted this picture after successfully tricking the RINOish voters to nominate McCain and Romney. Sorry guys(gals). Wet dream over.
It happened long before this debacle. His candidacy has been only kept alive in the minds of the far left media wonks and the GOPe group. Pesonally, I am trying to find a Republican/conservative issue that he has come down on the correct side of things.
We need a true conservative that will appeal to the very large group of conservative democrats that are just as fed up with the current democratic party and this administration as we are.
Thanks New Jersey Democrats. One RINO taken out. How about help taking down the others? :)
Santorum was bottom of the barrel until all the other dropped out. Sorry. He is unelectable, even in his own state.
It probably would not be any kind of deal at all were Christie not running for President. It is just New Jersey politics ho hum, kind of like Chicago politics or Maryland politics and some etc.
Exactly correct. The amusing part of this is that it took Dems to elect this thug. And boy did they do us a HUGE favor. That’s funny.
And I certainly wouldn't call him "bottom of the barrel" as compared to candidates like McCain, Dole, Romney, Cristie, Newt or Jeb Bush.
He was “finished” before he got started. Even the RNC can’t fix the nomination procedures enough to get his vast bulk through the door.
Newt and Pelosi sitting on a bench...
I have been laughing my ass off about this for the last 24 hours or so. I am utterly relieved that Christie has been kneecapped this way. We do not need another quisling standard bearer foisted on us by the jackels of the MSM.
No but when someone having a medical emergency dies while the Ambulance is stuck in traffic on the bridge, then there's a problem.
Ha! GOP-e probably loves him even more. Remember: the Dems, media, and GOP-e will tear apart any decent candidate.
At least Christie fired somebody. Sebelius is still employed and Obamacare will kill tens of thousands.
“when someone having a medical emergency dies while the Ambulance is stuck in traffic on the bridge, then there’s a problem.”
Interesting that when Mary Jo Kopechne had a medical emergency and died a slow death at a bridge due to somebody’s deliberate abandonment of her... there was no problem in the democrats’ eyes.
Good point. Of course if it weren’t for double standards democrats would have no standards at all.
His liberal pals have abandoned him. He’s only useful to them when he’s bashing conservatives or caving to Democrats.
