Obligatory Entry on Chris Christie Bridge Scandal

Look, I put on CNN around noon, since as previously noted I can't stand Shepard Smith. I normally turn it back over to Fox at 3:00pm, when the awesome Special Report with Bret Baier comes on. So it's been non-stop Chris Christie news for almost 3 hours now, especially on Jake Tapper's and now with Wolf Blitzer. Blitzer just had a pretty compelling interview with Fort Lee Mayor Mark Sokolich, who was the alleged target of retribution by Christie's office. Ima post that clip when it's uploaded to CNN's YouTube page.

Meanwhile, at the Bergen Record, "Fort Lee mayor: GWB emails reveal the 'venomous side of politics'."

Also, I had the Lonely Con at the sidebar, but it's time to move her over to the front-page, "Emails Show Top Christie Aides Had Bridge Lanes Closed to Punish Ft. Lee Mayor."

And at the New York Times, "Top Christie Staff Sought to Disrupt Traffic as Revenge." (More at Memeorandum.)

Added from Twitter:

True lesson of media feeding frenzy on Christie is #GOP candidates think they can be buddies with press. Nope, press views GOP as dinner.

.@MelissaTweets @jimgeraghty Just like his pal Obama, Christie is shocked -- SHOCKED -- to learn something scandalous happened on his watch.
