Chris Christie traffic scandal: An end to presidential plans?

Huh? Do you think Hillary's campaign operatives somehow convinced Christie's aids to do this?

I'm not jumping to conclusions about if Christie had anything to do with this but it is very clear his aids did this. I am not sure how Hillary's campaign is involved.

 

uhhhh yeah.. are you new to the internet? You are arguing to a schtick caricature so none of this is reality-based - it's derp based.

 

This is amazing.

I know it has not yet been three years since your prediction, but have you had to put down your dog yet to protect him from the hungry bands of poors looking to put meat on the table?

 

Hillary's operatives are disguising the poors from you -- but don't doubt for a second that they are there and they (or the liberal ones anyway) are looking for a forcible hand-out of dog flesh!

 

You. Are. Delusional. Blame Hillary? Pleeeease just stop.

This is New Jersey, probably the politically dirtiest state in the country. I've wondered from the beginning if being from NJ would bite Christie. Not surprised something like this rears it's ugly head.

Hopefully he survives and is the GOP nominee. Better for this to happen now than in 12 or 24 months.

I want to vote for him against Hillary. Getting through this can make him a stronger candidate.

 

The louder and more often you hear FAUXtards, the further right the center moves, if you have a big voice that is more centrist on the right side, it negates the strategy and allows for compromise instead of gridlock.

The 1% own the popular media.

 

I'm surprised to see so many posters play it down. Christie's own friends, aides, and appointees did this stuff in an obviously retributive manner. It is more likely than not that Christie did know it was happening. If he did not know, he should have known, and what does it say about him that he didn't? He has not just one sabateur in his organization, but a whole band of them that can run wild without him knowing? That doesn't look good either -- he's either crooked or has no control over his own organization, and I'm not sure which is worse. What sort of corporate culture does he perpetuate there that would make his aides think this was okay to do, with or without him? So, maybe he's both crooked and inept.

This isn't a partisan thing for me -- I'm just appalled that state officials would behave this way. I had liked Christie, so far as Republicans go, and he seemed to me a more palatable presidential candidate than most of the crap that seems to be in the field for both parties. But no longer. Whether he knew anything about it or not, this whole thing says very bad things about him. If I lived in New Jersey, I'd want a recall.

 

How much is Bridget Anne Kelly getting paid?

 

maybe Hillary gave him the aids.

No need to worry. All politicians do this or something. Total no scandal.

 

OBAMA!!!

 

Christie following the Obama "I know nothing, I read about it in the paper, no one is more angry about this than me, we will get to the bottom of this" playbook.

 

:grin:

 

I'm ready for another beer summit.

 

with who? the family of the lady he may have killed?

Seriously though, isn't there a manslaughter case against someone here?

 

Anyone notice there doesn't seem to be a rush from Mr. Christie's political allies to step up and support him in his time of need?

Where's Mr. Priebus?

 

I think some charges may be appropriate, but not manslaughter.

 

If your child or parent was in an ambulance that was delayed due to this and they died, what would your response be? nothing? I guess nobody knows what they would do until it happens to them.

 

She was 91 and in cardiac arrest. Odds were not in her favor to survive.

Christie will easily overcome this. I'm just not sold he can win the primary anyway.
