Not so fast there, President Christie

As the Bridge Scandal worsens in New Jersey, Chris Christie's Presidential ambitions, while not over yet, are taking a huge hit.  Can you imagine a cutthroat like Ted Cruz with this scandal in his back pocket during the republican primaries in 2016?  Even if Christie wasn't aware, he still hired the fuckers who were petty enough to unleash hell on thousands in the small town of Fort Lee, New Jersey over a refusal to give a campaign endorsement.

But the bigger question is...if Christie is done, who is the candidate republicans can turn to in 2016 for a chance to win the election?  It was McCain in 2008, Willard Romney in 2012, but who is left other than Christie for 2016?  All the rest are Tea Party psychopaths who, barring a complete collapse of the U.S. economy, have about as much of a chance to be President as I do and I'm not even running.

I'm sure they'll find someone who has a voice that passes for reason in republican in the next two years, but you have to admit that Democrats--who because of demographics are starting out on solid ground--considering a run are considering it with a little bigger smile on their faces these days.

Peace,
