>Christie claims he didn't know about the lane closures until they were opened (either he's lying or clueless on what goes on in his state). Wildstein says (through his mouthpiece) he has evidence that Christie knew....yet he hasn't presented it, and he won't say if Christie simply knew of the closures "in real time", or if Christie actually knew that the lane closures were done as payback. And then yesterday, Christie's office released a statement that Christie had no knowledge of the lane closures BEFORE they happened (emphasis mine).

>Christie is likely done either way.

my guess is that he is at least blocked from next prez election - when such cute things from state level make german news, there is king making or deleting done. Similar to Slick Willy weathering infidelity claims that had floored candidates before...
