In the 2016 presidential race, a new poll shows New Jersey Republicans prefer a governor who isn’t theirs.
Their choice would be Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker. According to a Monmouth University poll released today, in a matchup between Walker and Gov. Christie, 44 percent of New Jersey Republicans would pick Walker, while 30 percent would go with their own governor. Three months ago, the state’s Republicans had favored Christie over Walker, 51 percent to 30 percent.

Krispy was a rino and his own worst enemy. But make no mistake, the press will try to destroy each and every republican it sees that is even semi conservative and has a chance at winning.
The fact that after doing NOTHING right as Sec of State, fate scandal after scandal after scandal Hilary is still up in the polls just confused the living hell out of me.
at least they are not double digit leads anymore and the repubs have much less name recognition, plus the debates should help, not hurt. but forgive me if it breaks my heart that in the US, this should even be a competitive race, with OUR side trailing.
Cruz or Walker could turn things around, but
Walker, with his right to work policy, which I agree with, better have DAM good bodyguards.
Cruz is my man with Walker the backup, and I’d show up at he polls for Rubio, though I’m not quite sure why.
It’s simple.
People crave strong leaders who stand up for values.
NJ Republicans prefer Walker.
FReep Mail me if you want on, or off, this Wisconsin interest ping list.
"WASHINGTON (CNN) —Former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush may be the most popular Republican presidential hopeful nationwide, but he trails his rivals badly in the critical state of Iowa, according to a new poll released Wednesday....
The top Republican in Iowa is Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker, who garnered support from 21% of those surveyed. Sens. Rand Paul of Kentucky, Ted Cruz of Texas, Marco Rubio of Florida, and former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee are tightly packed for second place, each earned between 13% and 11% support. Neurosurgeon Ben Carson, who unveiled his campaign on Monday, tallied 7% of the vote...."
Because if you’re from Jersey you know about Jersey politicians.
The good thing about an inflated field of conservative candidates is that the media will have to spend most of their time spreading their hate, misleading information, false polls, etc. between all those candidates. Instead they can concentrate on their choice of demodummie candidates which, at this point, are few and far between.
...Hilary is still up in the polls....

Do not forget to factor in that there are so many misinformed people that will respond favorably to a name just based on name recognition. Unfortunately, there is a sizable portion of the electorate that just does not pay attention to the issues.
They can tell you which celebrity is married to some other celebrity or all about the plot of some television show, but they cannot even tell you the names of their senators or of their district representative.
That said, I do not have much faith in polls. These days,they are often manipulated by the pollsters.
