Bridgeghazi

The Bridgeghazi hashtag has been going strong on Twitter for more than 24 hours, but for different reasons.

There are many merits to calling the scandal Bridgeghazi, of course, most notably that it’s (1) monumentally more clever than the tired “-gate” suffix and (2) not also the name of a British security company, a defunct drug clinic, a California recruiting firm and a purported film production company with a very sketchy Web site.

It's been three full days since New Jersey Governor Chris Christie gave his marathon press conference about the Bridgeghazi scandal and was squired to Fort Lee to apologize to Mayor Mark Sokolich.
