Chris Christie political future about to end.

[IronEagle]

...show me the smoking gun. Christie is the ONLY Republican both my wife and I would vote for -- we're both registered Democrats. If the GOP wants The White House, they'll find a way to get Christie at the top of the ticket. He's so far ahead of anybody the Democrats would nominate it's not even funny. The man is HUMAN!

This is funny on many levels.

You're too old to be that naive, chubby-chaser.

Shove It, Moron

Don't label me with your sexual urges.

Correct me if I am wrong but was it not the Watergate coverup that took down Nixon instead of the actual Watergate break in? If he admitted to the break in initially he would not of been forced out of office?

You really think this will sink Christie?

Well, maybe you're right

He is on the wrong side of the double standard for this kind of shit ... which every one of them practices.

[CbEagle]

No, what will sink him is the Tea bagger douchebags that dislike him immensely because he is too liberal for the fundamentalist click of the republican party.

This is worse than most. He basically f*ed over an entire town because its mayor who is of a different political party(!) didn't endorse him. What kind of guy expects a politician from the other party to endorse him? And what kind of thuggish behavior is it to screw over a whole town on the first day of school over that?

Kinda sociopathic if you ask me.

[KenfromCanada]

Peoples lives were endangered, kids left on school buses for hours on end, and hard to determine the financial cost of something like this. All for some sort of a political vendetta.... What might this guy do if he got into the White house??

[slag]

Assuming he's sufficiently linked to this.

I tried to read that time line ... pretty muddled ... so I think this will shake out depending on how hard the press goes after him.

Meanwhile, there is a story that Hillary Clinton told Obama that she opposed the surge in Iraq for political reasons during the primaries, because she was running against him.

Let's see how that affects her.

Probably

I'm pretty sure he'll be linked to this. Now they need to get some people under oath and testifying. Ambulances, fire and police services are all crippled if they are stuck in traffic.

[IronEagle]

Probably

Actually this incident is probably more of a plus than a minus for Christie among those who vote in Republican primaries.

He May Have Survived Watergate If Not For The Tapes

Once the tapes became public knowledge, there was a trail that ultimately led right to the Oval Office. The beginning of the end was when Alexander Butterfield revealed the existence of the tapes.

IFF

If and only if. I don't think I'm alone in saying show me the proof.

[slag]

I think cb is considering this independent of the hard liners fucking him over and, although I get your point, I doubt it will soften the nut wing of that party.
