Let's say it's mid-January.  Christie is at 20% in NH, Rubio is still where he is now.
Is Christie the new frontrunner?
Is this already secretly the case?
Who would win in a brawl between the two?

You missed a trick not naming this thread Fat Man And Little Boy.

Even in the (possible, if unlikely) Christie winning NH scenario, I'm really not sure where his campaign goes from there. This schedule this year is shockingly hostile to him.

He pulls the McCain one-two.

South Carolina:
Chris Christie: 28.4%
Marco Rubio: 27.9%
Ted Cruz: 24.6%
Donald Trump: 20.7%
Other: 0.5%

Nevada:
Marco Rubio: 25.8%
Donald Trump: 25.7%
Chris Christie: 24.9%
Ted Cruz: 19.9%


From there, CHRISTIE can sweep MN, MA, VT, and make attempts in CO and AK. If he wins ME and comes second in both LA and KY, he wins HI and MI. On March 15, he can wrap up the nomination with Illinois, Ohio, and Missouri.

So far Kasich is the only one who has started attacking Christie in New Hampshire. Bush and Rubio are fairly likely to start up too, and if he climbs to 20, the attacks would escalate with Trump joining in. Bush and Rubio could outspend Christie by a lot and he's a pretty easy target. But Cruz probably prefers Christie to Rubio to come out of New Hampshire and would continue to hit Rubio, and Jeb and Kasich might too. Chaos. But Christie at 20, Rubio at 10, with over 3 weeks til NH? Take Rubio plus the points.
