Poll: Corzine Trails Christie By Six Points

Yet another poll shows Gov. Jon Corzine (D-NJ) trailing his Republican opponent, former U.S. Attorney Chris Christie, in this year's gubernatorial election.

The new numbers from Fairleigh Dickinson: Christie 45%, Corzine 39%, with a ±3.5% margin of error. It could be worse for Corzine -- most other polls have put Christie ahead by double-digits.

Corzine's approval rating is only 36%, to 49% disapproval. By contrast, Christie's favorability number is 47%, to only 25% unfavorable. The big question is whether Corzine will be able, as many Democrats in New Jersey before him, to reverse Christie's positives through sufficient attacks on his conservatism and the national GOP between now and November.

Corzine keeps narrowing the gap.

I feel one of those Klassic Kleefeld Komebacks just around the Korner

Christie is a typical Rethug. Hypocrisy personnified what with his USAG payoffs to cronies (for the non-prosecution of his brother ?)
Corzine is however no "prize".
