So much for the Republican frontrunner...

I haven't really been following this "scandal" but this certainly doesn't look good:

>>>>>New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie knew of politically motivated George Washington Bridge lane closings as they were happening, says a lawyer for the former port authority official blamed for the politically motivated incident.

A letter from David Wildstein's attorney says "evidence exists as well tying Mr. Christie to having knowledge of the lane closures, during the period when the lanes were closed, contrary to what the Governor stated publicly in a two-hour press conference he gave immediately before Mr. Wildstein was scheduled to appear before the Transportation Committee."

"Mr. Wildstein contests the accuracy of various statements that the governor made about him and he can prove the inaccuracy of some," the letter also reads.

The letter, from attorney Alan Zegas and addressed to the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey, seeks a reconsideration of the authority's decision to not pay Wildstein's legal fees. The letter was first reported by the New York Times.
A spokesman for the governor said a statement would be released shortly.

Zegas' letter sent shock waves through New Jersey's political community, with one veteran pundit saying the revelation was a "bombshell."
"Most of us who have watched this governor over the past several weeks anticipated this, given his demeanor has been rather un-Christie-like," said Brigid Callahan Harrison, a political science professor at Montclair State University.

Wildstein has been central in the probe into the lane closings, which occurred in September and snarled traffic in Fort Lee for hours over a period of four days. The closings led some Democrats to say the incident was meant as political retribution because the Fort Lee mayor declined to endorse Christie's re-election bid.

Originally, Wildstein, Christie and others claimed the closings were the result of a traffic study, but emails released earlier this month showed the closings were discussed between Wildstein and Christie Deputy Chief of Staff Bridget Anne Kelly in August.

Christie said he fired Kelly and cut ties to Bill Stepien, who ran his 2009 and 2013 campaigns, and insisted during an extraordinary Jan. 9 news conference that he was "blindsided" by the content of the e-mails.<<<<<<

Ouch. We'll wait for the faux squeals of delight from the "he was insufficiently conservative" blatherers who think Barry Goldwater could be elected POTUS these days.


So.....President Huckabee then? President Palin? President Perry?

The mind reels.....

Oops!

Was the Republican frontrunner's hand caught in the cookie jar?

Stay tuned!

How many Ambassadors died? Did he leave the drowned woman in the car by the bridge? Did he have sex with that woman? Did he know that they couldn't keep their plan?

If it is true, he is toast.

Not so much for the closings as for lying about not knowing about it.

It all depends on whether or not the attorney can come up with proof.

This is not news!

Every commuter in northern NJ knew about the lane closures as they were happening (WINS1010) ....the unanswered issue is did Christi know lane closings were being done as political payback!

TrannyTim is a dumb fuck if he doesn't understand this important distinction....

BTW, I don't support Christi.

But if the smoking gun exists; Christi is a Conner.

Perhaps Christie was toast in your eyes but not according to the polls.

The polling data indicated that he was still the most viable Republican candidate for POTUS. And then Bridgegate became a front page story and that is no longer the case.

Where in the hell have you been? Tibet?

The far right hates Christie and the far left.

That means I should then like him but I don't.

he was also toast after he gave that awful self-serving all about him speech nominating Romney at the convention

unless the polls that big tex cites ..(side note...it feels awful to associate the word tex with a liberal) ...were polls of only the republican and or the conservative electorate ..they are worthless

its similar to how the liberal media acts favorably to the least conservative GOP presidential hopeful during primary season, treating that person with fairness, up until a GOP nominee is a foregone conclusion, then the love fest is over as is any semblance of fairness

He is fat and he is white - what's to like?
