This could be the beginning of the end - if for no other reason or cause or engine driving it than the idiot media. HOW MANY TIMES by now have we heard from the Barbara Buonos and others inside New Jersey who have said on the record that they tried to bring this up much earlier. She for one tried to get anybody to listen to her on ANYTHING during the recent gubernatorial campaign. On ANYTHING. And nobody cared. Nobody was interested. Nobody wanted to listen. She said "we DID. We tried!"

So we may now have reached critical mass. If the timid are starting to come forward now, there won't be just one of 'em. We're bound to hear from others. Because the bully's kinda tied up at the moment. All the Governor's Men (and Women) who - yeah, sure, every last one of 'em is in business for him/herself, every last one of 'em is goin' rogue every day of the week and poor dear innocent victim chris christie is just surrounded by all these independent evildoers... It was like with bush/cheney. Or any other fiend who finds himself (or herself) on the ropes or under a glaring spotlight. It was those people over there. I didn't know anything. I don't know anything. I'm a frickin' Sgt Shultz. Hear no evil, see no evil and all that. The buck stops over there somewhere. They're all lying. THEY are all lying and poor little me is the only one telling the truth and blah blah blah. We saw it during the george zimmerman trial. We saw it during OJ. We saw it during the whole lance armstrong thing. It just goes on and on and on and on and on! "It's all THOSE people over there, somebody else did it, it's somebody over there. But poor sweet innocent put-upon little MOI? I think NOT! I'M the victim here!!!"

Amazing how people are still falling for it. Alex Witt sure played into it on MSNBC this morning. "It's all Mayor Zimmer's fault. She's suspect! I'm suspicious of HER. She coulda said something a long time ago." (Yeah, my ASS! Would you have paid any attention?) "Why now? Couldn't POSSIBLY have had anything to do with chris christie & co." What bullshit!

But evidently the coast is clear now, and the trampled-upon have gained a little more courage to come forward. And the media smells blood in the water and there are more reporters at various outlets, and more outlets, looking into this. I heard that, too, in the coverage this morning - that the Washington Post and others have put more people on this. So more WILL come out. and MAYBE even michael isikoff will come up with something, too, despite the fact that there is no stained blue dress or Clinton attached to it. He damn near had to wear a bib on camera during the whole Monica mess, lapping up and drooling over every salacious detail and digging like crazy for more. And after the Clinton administration gave way to the bush/cheney machine, silence. He was nowhere. Not a peep. Throughout. With all the material being generated and unearthed in the alternative media about the lies for war and the outing of an undercover CIA agent and everything else? NOTHING from isikoff or his ilk. Which led me to start pointing out how that asshole couldn't investigate his way out of a paper bag unless there was a stained blue dress and a Clinton involved. Maybe even HE will dig up something this time. There's just too much starting to come out. The dam is gonna break. I have a feeling there were mayors, state legislators, and other officials all over the state of New Jersey who had a boot heel on their throats to love and support chris christie OR ELSE. This is just the way it seems to work there, at least in that regime.

I'm amazed. I'm just astonished. Rachel Maddow and now Steve Kornacki are connecting the dots. And NOBODY ELSE IS?????? There's STILL nothing to see here?
