Here are some of Christie's (old) comments about the Bridge scandal. [From the NYTimes]

December 2013: “At the end of this, you know you and your paper will owe an apology to Senator Baroni and Mr. Wildstein,” Mr. Christie told the Wall Street Journal. (David Wildstein pleaded guilty today; Bill Baroni was indicted.)

December 2013: “A mistake got made,” Mr. Christie said, explaining that reports about retribution to punish the mayor of Fort Lee had been “sensationalized.” (Mr. Wildstein said in court today that punishing the mayor was the exact goal of the lane closings.)
