Christie’s first office was as a county commissioner in NJ, called a freeholder. At the end of his first term it was the other GOP on the council with him that got together and backed his opponent. They said he was indolent, mean, and obnoxious. He lost the election and the hope was he was done.

HH Studies show that real progressives/liberals tend to seek news from many sources and many forms of media….just as Air America failed to solidify an audience the same has happened to MSNBC because that single source audience is not there.

See you are talking about MSNBC. My thinking is that since Comcast (a rightwing corporation) owns MSNBC and NBC this is expected. At least I expected it. I see them getting rid of most of the “liberal” pundits in preparation for 2016. I expect libertarians and Republicans to fill out most of the slots.

A word about Giuliani…on the morning of 9/11 he had a 29 percent approval rating; the cost of cleaning up NY crime was police thuggery that rooted; the reason the guy was walking the streets that morning looking for a command cener was because the one he wanted and built with lots of money for friends was in the twin towers; and the reason so many firefighters did not get out was because they had crappy walkie talkies which G. would not replace…

My guess is that Kagan + Sotomayor + Ginsburg + Breyer are the for certains. Now- I think that Kennedy joined Alito, Scalia and Thomas in conference to take the case but he did it to kill the challenges once and for all. AND I would not be surprised if Roberts joins them to associte himself with the reform AND have influnce on the majority decision to toss in couple of Conservative twists for his street cred.
