Or Biden could even trail Christie at this point ...

Title: Re: NY-Quinnipiac: Hillary leads Christie by a huge margin, Cuomo not so much Post by: BluegrassBlueVote on March 20, 2013, 11:53:45 AM I think a lot of the numbers behind Christie right now are Democrats who are pleased with his centrist/hardball rhetoric but wouldn't actually vote for him if he's up against a generic D.
But if he's able to keep up the persona by emerging from the primaries as the only moderate among a cannibalistic field of conservatives... watch out. He's gonna KILL it with indies against anybody not named Hillary. |
