Now that Bridget is unemployable, how does she live?

I'm pretty sure that she has a mortgage payment, needs to buy food, has a car to keep running..maybe has a kid or four..

How does she earn money now? Who would hire her?

Her next steps will be telling. I don't think that Christie is a rich enough man to pay for her silence, long-term.

She had a very high profile job with many benefits, and now she's out with nothing. (or so we are led to believe).

She is the one person who knows where all the bodies are buried.

being involved in criminal activity enhances one's position on the right, IMHO. Ask Liddy or North etc----->

The GOP has every motivation to keep her from talking. Someone affiliated with a GOP group will be hiring her

I don't think too many people believe Christie when he claims she was the primary architect of this plan however, she obviously has her hands dirty but it is really hard to believe she acted alone. I think for this reason she will probably be offered immunity and the best thing she can do for herself is take an immunity deal and testify. She will then probably be able to land a big tell all book deal, she will find a way to make a living as long as she stays out of jail. She may have been a Christie loyalist in the past, but I imagine she is probably fuming after the things Christie said about her in his press conference today and I think there is a good chance we will be hearing her side very soon.

I must say that I am hoping that she will decide taking the fall for Christie is a bridge too far.

Looks like she is well off, that probably explains her fucked up cold heart.
