2. I imagine she's lawyered up. Pretty soon SOMEONE will go all John Dean on Christie's butt.

like she - and the crowd she was running with - were treating others.

5. That's only going to help her if she cuts a deal

before anyone else does. It sounds like the David Wildstein is chopping at the bit for a deal. Someone is going to have to go to prison. It's a matter of who is going to talk first.

7. She has to wait until Christie is completely defanged...who is going to hire her? She knows

it all, as does Wildstein, as does Baroni, who hasn't asked for immunity. Maybe possible they can immunize more than one. To get to the bottom of the cesspool, if they really want to, they may need more than one perspective/set of emails, documents, etc.

You know they are frantically negotiating with the Subpoenas due to start straggling in.

I wouldn't hire her, nor would I read any book she wrote.

10. Well, hindsight is always 20-20. Their kids are usually most what single parents, especially, think

about. It takes a lot of money to raise 4 kids, and she had a good-paying government job with good benefits, and she's loyal. I doubt she started out in Christie's office or planning to close bridges. He stuffed the Port Authority with 50 of his people. Should they all be canned, too?

She's the one (not the men, of course,) he fired immediately by media, with no warning, no conversation, just smeared her name and was the first one shoved under the bus. There were a lot of conversations and emails leading up to The Big One. Last I heard Christie is still getting his salary and benefits and his four kids are OK.

A lot of people would read the book.

11. I doubt she started out signing on

with the corruption. I guess I'm just a chicken shit, but I would have taken steps to either keep way out of it or getting out entirely. She's part of the Christie machine, and a lot of them are going down.

12. Maybe she should sue him for slander per se, if she didn't lie.

In civil court. So should everyone else he's smeared.
