A long read from NJ Spotlight, but well worth it:
Mastro ‘Exoneration’ Lays Out Christie Presidential Comeback Strategy
Bridgegate be damned.
Armed with a report from his $650-an-hour taxpayer-funded lawyer clearing him of all wrongdoing, Gov. Chris Christie unapologetically pushed back into the presidential race yesterday with a televised interview with ABC’s Diane Sawyer in which he disclaimed responsibility for the “inexplicably stupid things” his appointees did when they blocked traffic heading into the George Washington Bridge.
With the release of lawyer Randy Mastro’s internal inquiry giving him an occasion to break 11 weeks of virtual media silence, Christie said Bridgegate hasn’t ended his 2016 presidential hopes, nor would it change his outsized personality.
“I am who I am, and for some people, they love it. I will tell you when I travel around New Jersey, that’s the thing they love the most. I think they love me in Iowa, too,” Christie declared in his first TV interview since the Bridgegate scandal broke, referring to the first presidential caucus state. “I’ve been there a lot. I think they love me there too,” he reiterated, adding that Bridgegate would not be a factor when he makes a final decision on a presidential run a year from now.
