Bridge scandal's taken the air out of Christie's tires

What Chris Christie should do is announce his decision on running for president on the George Washington Bridge.

There, high above the Hudson River, the New Jersey Republican governor can announce that he either is running for GOP nomination for president, or as a result of "Bridgegate," he is jumping.

Actually the bridge scandal is a democrat media scandal.

Chris Christie’s problem is that he isn’t republican enough for us or democrat enough for them.

Nailed it.

He’s a Republican in New Jersey but still a Democrat in an R jersey everywhere else.

I remember there was a poll sometime around Christmas 2013 that found that Christie was one of the few Republicans (possibly the only one) who could defeat Rodham. About a week or so later this “Bridgegate” crap started in the New York media. And of course once it’s in the New York media, it spreads all over the country. I know how the Clinton war room works and I smelled Rodham in the earliest days of Bridgegate.

I was stuck in traffic jams on the GW when Chris Christie was still in law school.

There are plenty of reasons that I think that Christie shouldn't run -- the fact that he's not a conservative is pretty high on my list -- but a traffic jam on the GW doesn't even make it onto the list of top hundred recent political dirty tricks.

Chris Christie is SOL this go-round.

Ann Coulter has snuggled up to Mitt Romney even though he says he's not running.

Ann knows something we don't?

Which is the reason it was created by the media in the media for the media in the first place ... to destroy Christie.

Odd that Hillary scamming, selling out her country for pennies on the dollar and destroying evidence lacks traction... Anyone think it has something to do with the way the MSM farts...

kRISPY kREME DOESN’T RESONATE AND HAS NO FINANCIAL BACKING... gw BRIDGE HAS NO IMPACT and if it did wouldn’t hitlary be toast... look at her corrupt background and scandals.... no impact on her bobblehead drones...
She knows this and thus doesn’t bother with the media... and jackasses will still vote for her.... hopefully not enough to win

"Ann knows something we don't?"

Ann knows much that I don't -- and some of it is probably true.

“Ann knows something we don’t?”

She is just betting polygamy will be legalized soon and wants to be wife #2.

“Chris Christie’s problem is that he isn’t republican enough for us or democrat enough for them.”

He’s apparently Republican enough for Haley Barbour, Haley likes Christie and Jeb. Haley appears to be more of a democrat masked as a rino who claims to be a “Conservative Republican”. How many REAL “Conservative Republicans” would support amnesty and Loretta Lynch? Barbour lobbied for open borders and amnesty, Cochran would not have voted for Lynch unless instructed by Barbour.

Chris Christie is my least favorite prominent RINO, but I don't want him to jump from a bridge. That much mass at high velocity . . .
