The Untouchables

What are you prepared to do?  In this movie, the old beat cop played by Sean Connery, was prepared to go all the way in order to get Al Capone.  His character dies in the attempt to bring Capone to justice.  With his dying breath, he asks the question "what are you prepared to do?"

One thing that you should not do is to quit.  It's the same as dying.  We all die anyway, but let the death mean something.  To die for nothing makes life meaningless.

The GOP's stance on Christie may well be to give him up.  But they are up against the Chicago Machine.  They'd better be prepared to do more than just surrender.  Otherwise, it may well be curtains for the GOP, and maybe for the rest of us as well.
