Christie is small time loser - with a big mouth and small brain.
The real story here is the undeniable bias of the press and ignorance of 47% of America. This is a litmus test for idiots. I eagerly await the usual parade of them to weigh in here.

I haven't followed the details of this story. So I don't have an opinion on it or know if it's significant. But I know that there's no chance in hell I was going to vote for Christie anyway. Anything that diminishes his chances of getting the republican nomination is a good thing in my mind. I don't think a moderate "politician" can fix what's wrong with this country. It's going to take a congress and president that are willing to self destruct politically to do the right thing. There aren't may people with that kind of character and Christie is definitely not one of them.

Andrew McCarthy writes a good piece in National Review, adding some context to this scandal.

He was NEVER going to be the GOP nominee with or without BridgeGate. He isn't presidential, and he never will be. In addition, there's a lot more baggage than BridgeGate.

Call me cynical, but it's hard to believe he was totally unaware of this. And if he did order the code red, somebody he axed will be pressured into giving him up.

Of course he know about it.
He spend 107 minutes denying it.
No one who didn't do it could talk that long about it!

He's suspiciously vague when questioned about a purported "traffic study."
That aspect of the scandal may prove his undoing.

Like Jack Ruby took care of Oswald? Or maybe like Jimmy Hoffa; say, are any big structures going up in Jersey any time soon? Maybe time for some concrete to be poured in Fort Lee.

Firing his Deputy Chief of Staff was absolutely the right move to make. Cristi said she lied but it looks like the real reason is his Deputy put the insane deal in writing and used government resources in a criminal manner. Stick a fork in Christie, he is done. He might spend some time trying to clean up Camden. The city is a disgrace,just a mess and the epidemic is spreading.
