FWIW, the timeline went that he had his first election in May which led to a required runoff in arly June. He was inaugurated July 1, caught on tape again on July 16 (the day after making a public pronouncement that there would be no pay-to-play in <em>his</em> administration, and arrested about July 22 or 24 (I forget the exactdate now, but you ca look it up). Dwek had been delivering cash and running tape all through the time period.

Don't you know this is a new America, an America where no one but the average American is ever held accountable? Surely Christie will sweat a little but if he was able to sail through the election without the media trumpeting his crimes and his shenanigans with Brown, does anyone really expect him to be held accountable for anything? I don't and I won't hold my breath. C’mon, what’s all this talk about accountability?
