New Jersey to Chris Christie: Chuck the campaign
Source: USA Today
TRENTON, N.J. The people who know Gov. Chris Christie best New Jersey residents say Christie should pack it in and quit running for president, and that includes a majority of Republicans.
A Rutgers-Eagleton poll out today also shows the second-term GOP governor can no longer count on a home-state advantage when New Jersey has its presidential primary on June 7.
Sixty-seven percent of registered voters think Christie should end his campaign, while 27% say he should continue to run. Only 9% say Christies prospects have improved in the past few months since he officially entered the race.
Republicans are also giving up on Christie for President, with only 41% saying he should keep running, against 54% saying he should call it a day.

(30,250 posts)I remember when he was being touted as the best hope of the GOP and was everywhere. Now you barely hear about him. I can't stand the bully, but unfortunately he's my governor and we will have to put up with him for the time being.
