“My only conclusion is that Sarah has been living rent free in this broads head for a LONG time...so long that Joan was having a brain-salad moment when she wrote the column.”

Excellent observation!!

And you are right Sarah had nothing to do with this story

[Vaquero]

I have no idea why Walsh believes Christie claiming no knowledge and throwing underlings under the bus disqualifies him for the presidency. After all, Obama does that all the time

but zero needs to throw Holder and Sibelius(and past tense Hitlery) under the bus....but didn't. he is that arrogant that nothing his people do can be wrong because they are his people..

[gundog]

The Palin Strategy. Make him a distraction, he does the right thing for his State, and quits.

[what's up]

Did Walsh write a column berating Obama for his IRS crimes?

For the DOJ evesdropping on 100 journalists?

Didn’t think so.

In a statement so full of word salad it might have come from Sarah Palin

I'm unable to comment because I stopped reading there.

Except that he isn’t a pimple on her backside. He ain’t quittin’ unless they’ve got the goods on him, unlike Gov. Palin, where absolutely none of the frivolous charges against her were ever substantiated...

In a statement so full of word salad it might have come from Sarah Palin, Christie threw an unnamed staff member under the bus – and then resumed his silence. He threw his own presidential hopes under the bus too.

Yeah - I started wondering about the "quality" of the content and conclusions early on when I read "In a statement so full of word salad it might have come from Sarah Palin, Christie threw an unnamed staff member under the bus – and then resumed his silence. He threw his own presidential hopes under the bus too.<\"

I do have hopes it does, in fact push Christie off the table though.
