Pity the poor bearded billionaire.

Now he’ll have to go back to ruining his golf game instead of a whole state.

Star-Ledger just put a check next to Christie’s name on their election returns board. Hopefully, he will be much better than the last Republican governor of NJ, Bush friend Christie Whitman. I think he will.

Rove just released some big numbers. Conservatives voted unlike 2008. 300% increases in some counties. It may be enough to take care of the fraud.
