Bridget just might have a thing or two to add...

[boston bean]

I mean this ass throws her under the bus, like he's some victim of hers, while she was probably doing what he wanted. And then gave him plausible deniability, by doing what he wanted again, by denying it.

Soon enough, and this story then takes the fuck off to another level.

No way, is my guess, that she just slinks away from this. Might be a couple of weeks as she will lawyer up, but I don't think she will stay mum.

1. Agreed, it's her chance for 15 minutes of fame

She wasn't famous until this!

2. being the fall guy is just part of the job

unless and until criminal charges are filed.

He'll find her a cushy job somewhere else for taking the heat off of him. Unless she finds herself facing jail time and rats him out in exchange for immunity.

3. Doubt she would stay quiet for free.

All concerned are probably getting their stories straight.

[randome]

4. Without a paper trail, though, it's just he said/she said.

She 'lied' to Christie about the bridge closure. So she will be 'lying' again if she says Christie knew anything about it.

9. If there were ever an excuse for

the NSA to exist, it would be for this sort of thing. I'll bet they know what all those redacted emails say... somebody should be asking them for the evidence.

5. This is going to be like peeling

apart the layers of an onion. There's going to be a bunch of he said, she said and the cast of characters will grow.

[Stagecoach]

6. Part of the deal

My guess is she probably had an understanding she'd get thrown under the bus during the press conference as part of taking the fall. They've probably already lined up another job for her.

7. That is my feeling, too.

Christie knows better than to leave a loose cannon or two rolling around.

[Zorra]

8. Let's hope you're right. Conservative wimmens often stands by their mans.

A substantial Cayman Island Bank Account, etc, pending could inspire increased loyalty as well.

10. The amount of dirt former aides have on Christie will be directly proportional....

.... to the size of their "consulting job" and legal fees donations.


Remember the phone jamming scandal?

The guy with buffers between him and the White House (read: rove) was hung out to dry and went to prison.

The guy with no buffers that made 12 phone calls to the White House (read:rove) on Election Day received $2.5 million dollars of legal help from the RNC. His wife got a $300k consulting job she wasn't qualified to hold.

"Yeah, The Corleones got a lot of buffers"

11. It will probably come out that he was having an affair with her.

That he was the person responsible for concocting the bridge closing, and that it was a job that was so important that he entrusted it to his closest confidant.

[malaise]

12. I'm hoping for a hell hath no fury...moment n/t

[grasswire]

13. i would go into hiding if I were her.

Exploding cars and all......
