“It may be unwise to bury this man’s presidential aspirations before he has even announced formally that he has any…
Absolutely true. See “Dewey Defeats Truman”.
“But the leftist media has a tendency of flipping to the end of a story (as they perceive/hope it will be) before the story has ended…”
Like, say, Benghazi. Again, nine congressional investigations. Nine. All conducted by idealogues who would like nothing more than to hang Ms. Clinton, Mr. Obama, and everyone they know. Yet after all this time and all these investigations, there are no damning conclusions, only strongly-held opinions.
Although I will agree that media outlets often use their positions of influence to frame news in the manner they prefer, I think you are smart enough to know that this is not limited to only “leftist” news outlets. Let’s be fair; this behavior goes on regardless of political slant, to the detriment of our society’s future.
I had the strangest feeling of déjà vu when reading about Christie: he supposedly knew nothing, even though this has been simmering for months, until the damning emails came out, after which he suddenly fired his people — after claiming he would get to the bottom of it, he says he fired his chief of staff without even discussing it with her, bewailing how he had this great team, but he had been betrayed…Sounds remarkably about how Nixon behaved when he was forced to fire Haldeman and Ehrlichman to protect himself…
Hmmm, it’s the righties behind Cruz, Ryan, and TEA that are out to light the match under him, not nearly so much from the “left”. (Good leadoff comment “Mark”.)
What about taking responsibility for:Fast and Furious, people actually died;Benghazi, people actuall died;Obamacare, a massive traffic jam of epic porportion;IRS, NSA, who is running my country?..Time for a leader not a reader.A kingdom is only as good as its king.

You know, I am not exactly a Christie fan but I think reports of his demise are a touch premature.
