His highest ratings came from the restaurants and diners.

This is in my opinion but is food for thought as well.

Well, if this is correct I would say that the people who gave him a good approval ratings probably are in the counties(that do not need any financial help) that receive all of the money
and jobs that are supposed to go to other counties that really can use it.

He is still a bully with police protection but I would like to know how much of a bully (running that big mouth) he would be if he did not have any type of armed protection? Now as a suggestion
since Christie is always say "NJ does not have the money"...then since he is a bully then some if not all of his armed protection should be removed, this will really save NJ.

Did anyone notice that well he was away in Israel that you did not hear helicopter/plane like you normally hear all hours of the day & night when he is in the state of NJ and why is he able to travel some much out of state, which I thought if he has the title of Governor of New Jersey he would stay in NJ and act like a governor after he is taught?

Be CAREFUL for what you wish for!!

Christie reminds me of Palin. Her ratings were sky high also until the nation got a look at her and Alaska figured out what an embarrassment she was (is).

It's not over until Christie eats your pie and then yells at you to quit whining it's for your own good.

Actually, it would be progressives that took from someone, and then told them that it was 'in their best interests'

Democrats misbehaved in New Jersey, so voters became angry. To show their anger, they voted for Republicans, who also will misbehave, so the voters will be very angry. The corporations, however, are not angry at all.

If Scott Walker,with his $25 million of mostly out of state money, is recalled in Wisconsin and Obama does as well as expected here in NJ,watch Chris Christie run for the hills

Granted,we have our share of ill informed residents here in NJ but I will not place any faith in this poll as the election is a year and half away and the Governor has no real opponent as of now that will point out his weaknesses like his failure to cut property taxes as promised,his failure to create jobs,the worst air pollution in the nation,collapsing infrastructure,dispirited state work force including police and firefighters,not to mention teachers.And there will be a lot of questions regarding the real reasons why he vetoed the Hudson tunnel project.Some people might like his brashness right now.Facing a real challenger could prove different

Wow, 797 registered voters were polled. I would hardly call that a stirring endorsement or a factual poll.

Not to worry,,,, The mess caused by the raceBased voting of 2008 will be rectified soon enough

Obviously they didn't poll the students at Fairly Ridiculous U. Most likely they called the residents of Mendham for thier opinion on their "neighbor".

He could take the state helicopter. It's been known to fly him several feet before to save his majesty from wheezing.

So Christie is almost liked by people stupid enough to answer the phone and take a poll?
