What happens if Christie gets indicted?

[yellowcanine]

I think he would need to resign. Can the N.J. legislature impeach him if he doesn't?

Nothing.

9. Thanks for that onecaliberal...

I was wondering what happened to spare that criminal.

3. Do they have actual proof or just testimony?

In recent years we have had 3 governors in my state of Illinois go to prison.

5. An indictment is just a determination that there's enough evidence

to prosecute. If he's tried and convicted that's a whole different situation.

12. Exactly. The indictment is a headline

A conviction is a milestone.

6. I will

[okaawhatever]

7. That's what I was thinking. What will happen? Party like it's 1999 baby! If he goes to the slammer

I'm totally sending him a 3D Chess set with a note that says, "You clearly need more practice at this. I hope you'll use the next 5-7 years to practice".

[calimary]

8. What happens? We'll be celebrating at our house!

10. It will be a big stimulus to the garment industry.

Think of how much labor would go into making his prison outfits.

11. The next governor might criminally investigate why Christie gave away an $8Billion Exxon settlement!
