FDU Poll: Christie is mediocre Presidential candidate

by: Hopeful

Thu Mar 31, 2011 at 01:58:54 PM EDT



FDU have an overexcited headline on their new poll -- Jersey Guy Runs Better Nationally than Other Big Republicans -- but it's simply misleading as they find Chris Christie running worse than both Romney and Huckabee. Both of them also get much better primary numbers than Christie.  What FDU should say is Chris Christie runs better than Sarah Palin, a candidate so bad that other polls have found she'd make Texas and Kentucky toss-ups, Gingrich, the unpopular speaker of the House, and the obvious loser Pawlenty.  

Anyway, Obama beats Christie 46-40 in the nationwide sample of 800 registered voters.  

Personally if I were Christie I'd be strongly tempted to run given how weak the other Republicans are, but he's basically a generic Republican without any special appeal. Other polls have shown he'd lose New Jersey to Obama as badly as John McCain did.
