Guess which presidential candidate's brother has an Ashley Madison account? Did you guess Chris Christie? Because it's Chris Christie.

Courtesy of the Daily Mail:  

Chris Christie's brother had an Ashley Madison account in which he appealed for 'someone to bring some more spice into my life'. 

Todd Christie, a married father of five who is working on Chris's bid to be U.S. president, reportedly had sex 'a dozen times' with one woman he met via the cheating website. 

InTouch also spoke to a source who revealed that Todd and a woman he met online had sex 'about a dozen times.' '

Todd knows that he‘ll probably lose his family - and that it could cost Chris the Republican nomination,' said the source. 

'Chris should not be guilty by association, but Todd's actions will surely be associated with the Christie family's character.' 

Well I disagree, I think that this fits right in with what we know about Chris Christie's character.

It may not reveal anything new about the Christie family, but it does help to reinforce what we already think of them. 

However should Christie be blamed for his brother's actions?

No of course not.

But will it bang yet another nail into the Christie campaign's coffin?

Oh hell yes!

Is that a good thing for his future in politics?

Probably not.

Is it however good for the country?

Once again, oh hell yes!

    I want Rafael Cruz to be exposed for the charlatan he is. Chris Christie has never had a very strong chance of being the GOP nominee.

      Oh, it's coming. Wait until Mr. Schmarmy tries to shut down he government again, and it is pointed out...again...that the debt ceiling is to pay bills we have already accrued, and that a shutdown costs us million soft those hard-earned dollars he's always whining about. I don't think Mr. "Green Eggs and Ham" will be reading on the Senate floor this time around. Although he might understand "Hop on Pop" better than the message from Sam-I-Am, which he totally ignored. Pus, more people know who he is now, and do NOT like him.

    2. The role of government is to govern.

      The CHIEF job of Congress is to apportion money for the general welfare of the country, being mindful of the USA as a United body, and that what ails the foot might affect the welfare of the rest.

      Any Congress-critter who consciously works or advocates or votes for a governmental shut-down ought to immediately lose all pay and benefits for s/he has failed at the job. This includes ALL committee positions, no matter the ranking.

      Anybody else who fails to do their job gets fired, why not Congress-critters?!?

      Impeachment is for "high crimes and misdemeanors." Extortion *is* a high crime. Threatening to harm this nation as a body in order to benefit one's own standing in the opinions of a small subset is extortion.

      The Senator isn't personally going to benefit from lack of access to birth control or abortion. If there IS personal benefit, then we add bribery to influence law-making in addition to extortion.

      Congress, via the ethics committees, already has a mechanism for removing those who fail to uphold the high ideals of their office. However, it ought not be discretionary, it ought to be mandatory, and failure to do the job is far worse than failure to uphold an ideal.

    yeah, I honestly don't see how this changes anything for Christie. Everyone that hates him will still hate him and everyone that loves him will still barely show up on any measuring technology known to mankind.

  9. As far as guilt by association goes I'd say brother Chris has probably done a whole lot worse crap. Sad for his brother's wife and kids though.

    This common male gene pool is most boring, desperate and mammal appearing men should concentrate on fitness outside, instead of indoors playing with their tiny penis watching ms nasty and sitting on their dead ass and lost dick. Most male species lack discipline and need to pay someone to talk to Johnson. Johnson is lost and stuck in the grand canyon. 1 000 4u2c @4udesperados. Maybe legalize prostitution or something for these folks.

    Well, Bill Clinton was unfaithful to HIS wife while he was POTUS, and he'll no doubt be campaigning for her, as he did in 2008. So I don't see why Christie's brother should affect his campaign at all. Although I have no use for cheaters whatsoever, I also have no use for their public shaming unless they are running for public office and/or setting themselves up as moral paragons while judging others. Maybe the cheaters have exposure coming but their families and children, who have to live with the public shame as well, sure don't.

      Kind of like what happened with David Vitter. He was a good Catholic family man like Chrities brother who got caught sleeping with prostitutes. It had such a negative impact on his career that he won reelection and will probably get elected the next governor of Louisiana. What a punishment.

  16. Now I'm all the more suspicious about how quickly the Feds went after Rentboy, shutting them immediately down after not caring through near 20 years of operation. But somebody clearly knew that if Ashley could be hacked, a Rentboy exposure would be a far greater cesspool explosion.

    So, THAT Todd got caught. What about 'our' two-toned Toad? Anyone have access (and time...) to those records? He could be under different aliases - don't remember what he was using for his email when he was the shadow governor of Alaska.

    I don't think C should be held accountable for his brother's actions. Three exceptions: a. it was actually C using these services pretending to be his brother, b. C defends his brother instead of condemning his actions, and c. the services were paid for with campaign money.

    Quote from the New York Times article:

    "The Securities and Exchange Administration settlement Todd Christie signed, dated Oct. 15, 2008, maintains that he carried out hundreds of trades that brought the firm thousands of dollars in profits at its customers’ expense, and had violated stock exchange rules.

    While the investigation produced uncomfortable headlines, particularly when Christopher Christie was deliberating whether to run for governor in 2005, the windfall his brother earned on Wall Street certainly helped ingratiate him with party leaders.

    Todd Christie began giving tens of thousands of dollars to New Jersey’s Republican county chairmen in 2001, at a time when they were deciding whom to recommend that the Bush administration nominate as the state’s United States attorney. Three months after his brother was sworn in at that job, Todd Christie wrote a $225,000 check to the Republican National Committee."

    www.nytimes.com/2010/01/06/nyregion/06todd.html

    Read the whole article. It gets worse.

    4:07--Well, I wouldn't mind being judged by my siblings as far as that goes, but I absolutely don't think anyone should be judged in terms of anyone else or in terms of anything but their own actions, so yeah, I do feel sympathy for Chris Christie insofar as people are holding this against him.

    He didn't do it. He has no responsibility for it. As much as I dislike the guy's politics, this particular attack is unfair.

    And, BTW, whilst I wouldn't like to adopt your brother, I certainly would never judge you by his behavior, either...I wish you well.

      Innocent until proven guilty, no matter what family one is in.
      The possible exception that occurred to me (I'm 407) is a clan like the Palins, where it is clear that parenting is very deeply dysfunctional. But even there the IM community holds out hope that Willow and maybe younger kids can find their own paths in life.
