Is the writing on the wall for Chris Christie?

Anyone who needs further proof that New Jersey Governor Chris Christie had best stay away from a presidential run will find it in the double-whammy aimed at him yesterday. First, an NBC poll shows that in a head-to-head match-up with presumed Democrat 2016 nominee Hillary Clinton, Christie trails by ten points.

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie could face a strong challenge not only from former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton if he seeks the presidency in 2016 but also from his own party, a new NBC News poll reveals.

The survey of 1,003 adults released Tuesday, shows Clinton with 44 percent support, while Christie trails at 34 percent.

The second, and perhaps even more devastating hit to any Christie/establishment hopes is Governor Palin building on her comments of the previous day when asked about Governor Christie's 2016 prospects. After advising that Christie is a better choice than any Democrat, Palin elaborated as follows:

On Fox News's Hannity Monday, former Alaska Gov. Sarah Palin said Republican New Jersey Governor Chris Christie's record on Second Amendment issues was going to be "tough" to overcome with conservatives. She said Christie was "flirtin' with disaster" when it comes to "trying to win over Constitutionalists regarding the Second Amendment."

If the writing is on the wall all he has to do is stand in front of it and nobody can read it.

Stop with labeling those with whom you disagree “RINOs” it is only self destructive.
First priority is no more Bushs, Clintons or Kennedys!!!

You do know McAuliffe sees himself a POTUS!! He drools over the prospects. Probably as VP with Clinton and run for POTUS the next time around.

and how do you define the McCains and Rubio’s and Graham’s?
I don’t find the dismantling of the Republican party destructive. I call it building towards a better future.

Yeh, the 2nd ammendment, amnesty and having no problem with appointing Muslims as judges. I’d say Crispy will have a tough slog on the presidential trail.

I don’t think she is either. But, she’s in a good position to be a king-maker.

You are doing the same thing when you lump the Bushs in with the Clintons and Kennedys. Spare us the platitudes.

The latest anointed GOP RINO set up to ENSURE dem victory, in this case, the winner is Madam Benghazi.

Her bumper stickers have been distributed. I'm sure they will look good on leftist's greenmobiles.
