“I don’t want a Republican ‘Tony Soprano’ who plays rough,” said no GOP primary voter ever.

I that English?

Democrat projection. Dems LOVE politicians who cheat and play hardball, and even break the law, in order to advance the "progressive" agenda.

Christie fell for the concern trolls of the Democrat Party and Media. He appeased and pandered to them for nearly two hours. He did nothing to quell the non-problem (compared to what Obama has done in the last 5 years).

He only succeeded in confirming to them that they can kill his candidacy for the Presidency any time they want.

Well, Mike Murphy's hardly a GOP guru.

From the article “[I]f the facts are as presented, then what we saw yesterday was that rarest of creatures: A Republican politician who is good at politics.”

I saw Christie speak in person once, to a very small crowd of campaign volunteers. He was great, he truly has a gift from God - regardless of one’s view of him - he has the ability to make you think he is speaking directly to you. I came home and said to hubby “no wonder everyone says he should run for president!”

the Idea GOP person
part John Wayne, Curtis Lemay and Ronald Reagan. Add a pinch of Pope John Paul and Maggie Thatcher. Stir and pour.

I think the author’s been in the northeast for too long.

I’m unamused and entirely fed up with the liars, cheats and thieves that make up our political class.

Harassing citizens by abusing the power of one’s office may be a cute, acceptable stunt to some, but not to me. It isn’t okay when Obama does it, and it isn’t okay when Christie or anyone else does it, either.

When I put “bridge” or “tunnel” in a sentence with “political scandal” I’m thinking grand juries and any random day during the Big Dig. But a traffic jam?

HA!!!! Exactly what I've thought. This President has had one REAL scandal after another not the least is Obamacare still playing out. And the media is focus on a traffic jam. Why not Obama suing the Little Sisters of the Poor?

This is just another diversion to tarnish the Republicans.

I couldn’t care less if they threw that anti-gun liberal slob on a spit and BBQ his a$$.

"I don't want in-state tuition for illegal aliens", said 81% of likely voters.
