take on Governor Christie's lane closures

The political fallout on the GWB lane closures are just beginning and the deeper you dig into the pile of dog-shit, the worse it smells..

Back in September, right before the gubernatorial elections, an aide to Christie ordered a number of lanes closed on the GWB in what is now implied was retaliation against the Mayor of Fort Lee for not endorsing him for his reelection bid.   Although this could all be political gamesmanship, like an overweight man who hasn't showered down there in a while, this smells fishy.   TOR was on the scene this morning to take in the GWB morning commute and found that traffic was running OK but then again there was no election imminent either.   

Our reporters have interviewed a number of people with ties to NJ Politics including A. Ramy Eid a Democratic operative who had the following statement.

"   ...it's great to see that Hogan will be at Wrestlemania 30 but sad that he is so far past his prime"


Although TOR likes CC, this doesn't look good and will certainly not help his hopes for a 2016 presidential campaign especially coming from a politician who claims to be no-nonsense and beyond petty politics.  But what really bothered the editorial board was that this caused me a lot of headache personally, I remember that morning commute and it was completely horrible.   It took me two hours to get to work..
