There's another way of looking at the Christie dust up - I was a fan [?] of his because I believed he possessed in a unique way the qualities required to defeat or at least adequately push back against liberal media bias - he's now squarely in the rapacious maw of that bias - if he survives this feeding frenzy, and possibly even comes out looking in relative terms good because of his response to it [already many are contrasting his unequivocal taking of responsibility for this fuck up to Obama's refusal to take responsibility for anything that has gone wrong on his watch] then that will sort of prove my point: he's uniquely qualified to defeat or at least mitigate the pernicious effects of liberal media bias. Of course, this take will all depend on whether or not he can be directly tied to the scandal - if proof emerges that he signed off on this nonsense, he's toast - but I agree with some who are saying that the vehemence of his denials and the mammoth press conference he gave in his defense where he answered every question possible are strong indications that he truly wasn't a party to this nonsense or is at least quite confident there's no way it can be traced back to him. We'll see.
