Next to Chris Christie, how bad could Bill de Blasio’s first scandal as mayor really be, especially if it involves something as happy-making as pizza, Jon Stewart wondered on The Daily Show last night. “Unless he rolls up a pie in a ball and takes it like a suppository at Grimaldi’s, I don’t see a problem …”
