He had no involvement with the bridge, and has been clean since this faux story arose. It was an attempted “palinization”, and it didn’t work (in terms of NJ voters). He is a tax-cutting hero to many of us here in NJ, with all of the right enemies...
Christie’s PROBLEM is that NO ONE BELIEVES HIM, and virtually all of us believe one thing: Either he had something to do with the lane closures, or he is such a PATHETIC, OUT OF TOUCH governor that he ignored the SCREAMING from the locals when the lanes were closed.
Either way, NO ONE wants him anywhere near the White House, and his polling numbers show that. He really should concentrate on lawyering-up so that he can stay out of jail.
