How could 4 of his inner circle know about this, plan it, instigate it, and keep it that quiet from the Mayor?

If Christie is the stand-up guy the media claims he is then his presser will be a resignation announcement. I suspect he'll end up doing time over this.

Christie’s strength as a political figure has been that he is not viewed as a conventional politician but as a straight shooter.

I tend to think of him more as a horse's ass.

He is MSNBC’s only story right now, man they are beating on him.

All that love gone so soon.

Just like he retaliated against Romney after not getting the VP nod. The over the top praise of Obama was not different from closing the bridge. He is a miserable vindictive “big boy” who likes to throw his weight around.

Another top Republican strategist notes that Christie’s relative silence is hurting him by allowing his opponents in the Democratic party and the media to tell the story.

Better to remain silent and be thought a corrupt a**hole than to speak out and remove all doubt.

Didn’t some motorist die during this bridge gate?

If so shouldn’t Christie be prosecuted for Manslaughter?

At least that is what you will soon hear from the media.

Blocking the bridge for 4 days with the intent of disrupting traffic to punish a mayor is not must different from the parks services blocking traffic to various parks and memorials during the recent government shutdown.

Both are punitive and petty. Both came from the highest executive levels.

The title got a chuckle out of this Freeper. Christie has about as much chance of being elected president as Cleveland’s Kucinich.

It’s gotta be the biggest political flameout I can recall. I can’t think of anything near it. If I am mistaken then this country really is corrupt beyond repair.

Not the same. There are going to be deaths attributed to this, lawsuits, and criminal convictions. Christie was supposed to be protecting his citizens, not treating them with this kind of distain.

I’m sorry but I would have to protest that Crispy has ever been the legitimate front runner for the Republican nomination in 2016 to anybody but the Democrats.
