Current Hillary Clinton adviser created a traffic jam hoping to help Al Gore win the 2000 New Hampshire primary

 I have to say that I am thoughtfully enjoying the sudden downfall of Chris Christie, better to get him out of the presidential race sooner rather than later, but let us face it; creating a traffic jam is much less a scandal than is, I don’t know, say Benghazi, Fast and Furious, the IRS scandal, the NSA scandal, or Climategate to name a few.

  Yet the media seems to think creating traffic jams is more important than any of these scandals so let us play along. Michael Whouley is an adviser to Hillary Clinton’s as of yet still unofficial election team and in the year 2000 he came up with an ingenious plan to suppress the opposition to Al Gore in the New Hampshire primary.

“Michael Whouley came up with a last-ditch scheme: Send Gore into areas of southern New Hampshire where there was a lot of Bradley support among upscale voters and commuters who worked across the border in Massachusetts. Many of them cast their ballots late in the day after driving home. Gore’s motorcade — candidate, press, Secret Service, and police — could snarl traffic and keep some of the commuters from ever getting to their polling places or even trying to” 

Gore was “irate” at the “massive traffic jam” but then “Gore got the point” after Whouley explained that “they’re mostly Bradley voters.”

  Now that the media has set the bar as to what constitutes a true scandal it will be interesting to see if they cover this story with as much vigor and lust as they are covering the Christie story because this is far worse considering the fact it may have suppressed votes in New Hampshire. Some in the media are calling for criminal charges to be brought against Chris Christie, you would think they would also call for criminal charges to be brought in this case as well but somehow I think this story will go the way of Benghazi, Fast and Furious, the IRS, the NSA, and Climategate.

  Move along, nothing to see here…..
