La Cucaracha by Lalo Alcaraz for January 28, 2014

A thankless job, indeed !! :-(

I hear the slush fund benefits are good though.

Don’t cross any bridges for him.

How many weeks has it been now? And still no smoking gun with Christie’s fingerprints on it. (No jokes now.) I think he’s sincere and that he’ll survive. Politically, that is. Not sure physically. But his weight HAS been coming down. You can tell. It’s still a long way to 2016.

Mr. Christie might decide just holding onto governor is enough of a tough campaign to handle.

I think he can live down the bridge part of the problem. It’s just the old he was either responsible for knowing what his people were doing or he didn’t know, which makes him irresponsible. But if he actually withheld federal funds to enforce his agenda, which benefited a friend— he’s going to be living down that bridge problem sitting in a jail cell.

These things move slowly. Until they don’t. When his underlings realize they’ll take the fall alone, they’ll tell the whole truth. Even then, IOIYAR.
