Today’s events reminded me of this passage from a note from a TPM Reader who vividly remembered David Wildstein’s brief tenure as Mayor of Livingston, New Jersey …
Everyone I talk to agrees that closing lanes to get back at a mayor is right out of the Wildstein playbook. But since Wildstein is capable of anything, a lot of people also believe that he would have no problem saying Christie ordered him to close the lanes, whether it’s true or not. That explains the odd, erratic behavior from the Governor….he’s caught between a rock and a hard place.
