(4,846 posts)It still boggles my mind how he is still viable for any political jobs after bridgegate. Yes, he didn't get convicted but anyone with half a brain knew he was behind it all.

(73,592 posts)in response to your kind comment on my OP, my answer mentioned the Blue Meanies from the movie "Yellow Sibmarine." Chris Christie is in that movie, as well, as a Snapping Turtle Turk.
He's full of it

(7,839 posts)not right either, together in conflict?
Sometimes I really wonder if CNN has changed that much since they kept endlessly shoving the a the GOPs leading fascist presidential candidate to the center of the stage with endless free tv coverage and non-coverage of his obvious dripping fascism.

If you can't write what you know there's no point in writing it.
RockRaven
(14,990 posts)Just like a lot of preachers inflate their book sales by having their church buy thousands upon thousands of copies at a time.
Guess Christie's publisher forgot to make sure he had an active, well-funded campaign committee or PAC before giving him the book deal.

(1,182 posts)but perhaps, in politics, this is a fate worse than death.

(10,130 posts)A). Todays conservative does not read books as a rule
B). Christie is a TV toad whos experiences and story is not of interest to anyone.
