New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie's former campaign manager will plead the Fifth Amendment when he is asked about his role in an apparent plot to create a traffic jam in Fort Lee, N.J., according to a filing from his lawyer.
The campaign manager, Bill Stepien, was one of two people disciplined for his actions related to the access lane closures, shortly after the apparent scheme was disclosed in a series of e-mails and text messages...

Lois Learned Her.
The Bill Stepien who used to work for McCain.
Why, oh why, is there nobody coming forward with proof of Zero’s lies and corruption? Is the Chicago mob that much more powerful than the Joisey gangsters?
Christie FINISHED!!! Christie FINISHED!! This is the best news of the week. And news for the Karl Rove. Rocherfeller wing of this dieing party— WE AIN’T BUYING ROMNEY AGAIN!!
WE have a chance now for a real conservative— A true Reagan again. And it is not another “one world” BUSH!!
We have two things to consider here. The first is that the left is acting hypocritically to destroy another Republican. The second is that they are destroying a candidate that conservatives would like out of the race. We can count on the left using whatever means and methods they have available to them to destroy a conservative candidate who looks like he or she might beat Hillary. We need to point out the hypocrisy, and push against it hard, so we can use it against the left to defend whichever conservative candidate we settle upon.
...his role in an apparent plot to create a traffic jam ...
Hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah... whoa.,...haahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah. Whew...
Well, its good news that Christie is “finished”, but NOT good news the way he was done in.
If the “Bridgate” event occurred, so what? It probably goes on every day everywhere - or some similar political payback shenanigans.
The difference is the Left-Wing media went ballistic when his poll numbers eclipsed Madam Hillary’s and they all decided to expand upon and inflate what is in reality a tempest in a tea pot compared to Hillary and HER background and Obama and HIS scandals - all of which are IGNORED.
And the tactics used to stick a fork in Christie will be rolled out again when we get a conservative frontrunner. Remember Herman Cain????
In fact the Media have learned the collective intelligence of the American Publci barely exceeds that of an anteater and they can mold public opinion by magifiying minor Republican flaws and ignore Democrat major problems.
We need a better press on our side.
Christie’s ties to the mob were to the NY/NJ mob. If his sub severance instead was to the Chicago mob, I surmise he would still have a political career and a path to the WH. Big mistake Chris.
