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."

Bad news for Fox News, that was promoting Christie as hard as the Democrat networks.
The latest anointed GOP RINO set up to ENSURE dem victory, in this case, the winner is Madam Benghazi.
Hannity has also given that idiot Peter King so much face time on his show as to make him a d others in the Beltway believe he speaks for the country while slamming Cruz!
The writing that expresses the end of his political career after he finishes his stint in NJ... then yes... he will NEVER be President... not now and not ever.
Not as a republican anyway. As a dim... he has a chance.
Fat Fattie has no appeal outside Noo Joysie, the MSM, and GOP consultants trying to assure a Dimocrap win in 2016.
The answer is “yes”. It says, F*** OFF, Christie!”
Sorry, I don't buy 10 points. Just this Monday, Rasmussen reported Clinton 43%, Christie 41% (1,000 likely voters).
Plus most people still think of the Hillary Clinton of 20 years ago, not the nearly 70 year old who's suffered a stroke and needs prism glasses who's going to be running in 2016. Christie isn't my choice (and I live in New Jersey) but he's not going to go away.
I don’t lump Giuliani in with these other knuckleheads. The guy is not a straight down the line conservative by any means, but he is a tremendous leader and on some issues, he’s the best out there in making the case. He would have fought tooth and nail to win, if nothing else.
Hillary isn’t going to run.
Agree, she'll waddle
Or maybe it says “Hit the salad bar, Fatso!!!”
Walker is by far the better choice. The RINO wing figures he’ll face more hate from the left so they go with the lovable one.
I have held my nose and voted for the recent spate of Republican candidates. I will not, however, vote for Christie under any circumstances. This RINO Obama-loving syncophant personally destroyed the Romney presidential bid by sucking up to O during Sandy.
I don’t know, is the writing on the wall?
Come on people.
Christie will lose like Dukakis did.
My money is on Cristie not even winning NJ, let alone America...
