There are now Democrats saying that Chis Christie should be impeached for the incident involving the lane closures that happened on the George Washington bridge last fall. The apparent reasoning for the lane closures was an act of political revenge. Chris Christie claims that he had no knowledge of what was happening with that incident at that time. He has also fired his top aid who did have knowledge of this. The New Jersey governor says he is very embarrassed by what has happened. People are saying that if he can be proven to know about the situation he should be impeached.

Here is the thing, I really doubt Christie is going to be impeached. It is very hard to prove that a certain person had specific knowledge about something. You have to have hard evidence and that is hard to come by. In my opinion I am not really sure that he did know or was involved directly in this mess. If he was then he definitely be punished for something so unprofessional and quite frankly, illegal. You also have to wonder if this will have any effect on his running for the president 2016.
