Cross-posted from Politics 2014 -- why is Christie trying to torpedo Fort Lee's

billion dollar development?

Probably not because the Mayor failed to endorse him.

More likely because David Samson, Port Authority head and founder of one of the biggest law firms in the state, has his thumb on every scale. He and Christie and Michele Brown have their fingerprints all over this.

What probably happened in Fort Lee was that the wrong developer won the proposal bidding process – wrong, as in a Chicago firm, Tucker Development, not a Christie/Samson crony.
