I hope I'm wrong, but I see no reason they can't survive the scandals. Maybe Christie and Walker won't run for President, but that's about it.

As I said, I'd love to be wrong

The Clown Car Primary wasn't bad enough last time around.

Just think how great it would be with Christie, Walker, and McCrory all in Presidential primary debates.

Popcorn. Popcorn. Also.

Christie is going to have a particularly difficult time rebuilding his staff after he's thrown so many of them under the bus. I doubt he'll be able to rebuild a decent political organization by 2016.

The other ones are damaged goods and will have to fight difficult reelection campaigns.

However, none will be turned out of office and jailed. Laws don't apply to Republicans.
