While Gov. Chris Christie has been adamant that he has no plans to run for president in 2012, results from a new Rutgers-Eagleton Poll suggest that if he did, New Jersey voters would not be pleased. Only 22 percent of registered voters support a 2012 presidential bid by Christie, while 65 percent oppose and 12 percent are unsure. Moreover, while 36 percent of voters think having a governor on the national stage helps New Jersey’s image, 42 percent say it makes no difference and 21 percent say it hurts the state’s image.
How Do You Feel about a Gov. Christie Bid for President? - Glen Rock, NJ Patch
it looks like one of the conservative media darlings rising righties is heading in the wrong direction as 2012 approaches. New Jersey Governor Chris Christie has said that he would NOT be a candidate in 2012 and that looks like a very wise decision since most of the New jersey voters want precious little to do with placing him in the White House.
Keep in mind folks, these are the people that know him best. And he cannot even get one in four to say to support him running for the White House.
Christie isnt as popular as the media is making him out to be...neither is scott walker and Rick Scott is already in unfavorables here in florida
rick scott is a crook and a one termer.
Note his approval rating is higher than obamas.[/QUOTE]Lol@ haymarket.

FDU: Christie approval rating at 53% | Politicker NJ

thank for the eagle eye rev. It shows how fickle the NJ voter is. Fixed it. But the Presidential poll results still stand. those are right now and current.
Meh, i view my country and its politicians as something more than a popularity contest. :shrug:

But if you folks want to keep him in Jersey and out of the White House where he could do some real damage, its more than fine by me.

uhm he stated he wanted to be governer for a single term, doesn't care about the politics and is doing great work for NJ, how is he "falling fast" when he stated he doesn't want to run? :roll:
I like Christie.
I wouldn't read too much into this article. It's entirely possible that Christie's approval/disapproval has little to do with the reasons NJ residents want or don't want to put him in the White House.
That being said, Rev, I'm not sure where it says that haymarket's poll is over a year old.
Mr Pig Piggy said he doesnt CARE if hes a one term gov...just more bluster from the mouth that cant walk up a short flight of stairs without stopping 3 times...from a load that cant walk from the curb to his office without stopping 5 times.
Mr Pig hasnt cut his pay the HIGHEST PAID GOV in the country hes hasnt mentioned paying for his health plan or cutting his pension and the first thing the load did was cut taxs on the rich and corporations.
New Jerseys Pension fund was the richest in the country had a huge surplus until Christine Todd Whitman stopped paying her HALF into it for the 6 yrs she was gov and the govs that followed...Christie hasnt paid his half for two years either.
I agree, I voted for him but what hes done since day one is insane...hes allowing all the insurance companies and utilities to raise rates through the roof...State Farm is raising every form of their home insurance...hurricane etc up to 26% and they dont want to cover sink holes at all anymore.
Florida Public workers make far less than other states FAR LESS and he went right after them AFTER he gave tax cuts to the corporations and now he wants to give ANOTHER tax cut to wealthy and corps....he will have a republican challenge him in the next primary
