Most Americans Don’t Believe Christie

A new Bloomberg national poll
finds that 63% of Americans say they don’t believe New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie’s (R) “claims that he knew nothing of a plan by his top aides to
create a politically motivated traffic jam.”

First Read: “Christie finds himself in the unenviable position where his poll numbers are now upside down with — get this — Republicans… Folks, when is the last time someone viewed as a presidential contender
had a net-negative rating with his own party? Yes, it’s possible
Christie can recover; you never say never in politics. But Christie’s
prospects right now are much worse than some in the political community
realize. And that’s before all the investigations into his
administration run their full course.”
