Chris Christie traffic scandal: An end to presidential plans?

faux scandal

I knew it was only a matter of time before the liberal media tried to take down what they view as a threat to Hillary

 

lol CNN and HuffPo lead the charge first

put it this way: Hillary's scandal led to our ambassador getting killed and drug through the streets of Benghazi. Chistie's led to a traffic jam.

'nuff said

 

Figures a bully would defend one of his kind.

 

Don't know if it's going to end his presidential bid, but he's going to be seriously damaged. It's now being reported that an old woman later died after the EMTs were delayed by the traffic jam. This isn't going away.

 

Hillary, or one of her subordinates, ordered the attack?

 

Where is the evidence that Christie was directly involved?

Traffic jam vs. Ambassador slaughtered and drug through the streets of Benghazi. You're not going to win this one, libs

 

This is devastating.

Possible recall or impeachment on tap according to my sources.

 

Yeah, but was the old woman dragged through the streets... of Benghazi?

Actually and honestly: I don't think this has legs outside of NY/NJ and the Washington Bridge. The governor didn't send the emails, and most of the country won't care about a traffic jam.

Now, if he gets run out of his current office over this, that's a different story.

i think this will go away, given the current cynicism about manufactured scandals.

 

Is there evidence Christie orchestrated this? It might be all hidden to him, as I haven't heard that he was on any emails or anything. I know, I know, "how could he not know?!" Still, until I hear him directly linked, I'm not really going to forsake him for it. He seems like a less r****ded Republican, so I'd like to see him continue on a path to 2016.

Now, if there is evidence he was involved, that's a huge black mark. It's easy political fodder. "Who will Christie get revenge on if he gets elected President?" Right now he still has plausible deniability.

 

Agree.

Aaaand back to ridiculous stupidity. So close, tex, so close.

 

I doubt this will end Christie's presidential plans, but I certainly wouldn't be upset if it did.

 

The tea party agrees with you.

 

Two days ago he was saying no one in his office was involved and how dare anyone insinuate otherwise.

Now we know that was a lie. Now his buddy David Wildstein, that ran Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, is filing a lawsuit to block himself from testifying in an investigation of the whole thing.

I'd still vote for him over any other Republican and most Democrats.

 

How do you know it was a lie, though? Are you sure he wasn't just ignorant of the whole thing? Maybe the same lie he fed to the media about why the lanes were closed was told to him by his aides when he asked about it. Seems pretty far-fetched, but it's still plausible deniability to me. Not that such ignorance is excusable anyway, but it's certainly possible even at high levels (see: Obama and IRS).

 

Obama and IRS, Hillary and Benghazi, Obama and Healthcare.gov website, etc.

 

Christie is a bully and an ass. Wouldn't surprise me at all if this is true.

 

There's a whole lot of context about Christie and his close henchman (these peopleare inner circle) being vindictive score settlers. This is pretty damning and " I don't know nothing!" Isn't plausible and goes against his image anyway.

Tip of the iceberg.
