...  Why wouldn't they?  They could be just as corrupt with a member of their own party in office if not more.

Because the NJ Democratic establishment were the ones who supported Christie over Corzine in the first place.

There needs to be a bloodbath of primaries.

Christie's biggest backers aren't necessarily office holders, they're the unelected party bosses like Newark North Ward's Steve Adubato, Sr. who pull the levers behind the scenes.

But wouldn't they want Christie wounded, but not impeached? If he runs for the White House and wins they lose him as gov, but if he's kept from running and made damaged goods it gives more power to the Dem bosses in and out of the Legislature.

The Dem bosses are Christie's most important allies in the state.  It's just like NY state politics: no one cares what party you are or what your ideology is as long as everyone makes money working together.  The whole thing is a cesspool of corruption and both state parties in NJ and especially in NY are down with that Tongue
