How then do you explain him having a 56% approval rating in NJ? The left successfully defined him as anti-public employee union, he vetoed a gay marriage bill, and yet, he managed to overcome all the attacks and post that approval rating. Fat body and all.
For all his policy flaws on other issues, the guy is an absolute master at speaking hard economic truths, and making tough solutions appealing to the average voter. I wouldn't want him as the nominee, but in terms of changing the debate and giving momentum to the Ryan approach to budgeting, he's the best possible pick.
Keep him in nuw jooseey
56% depends on what poll you look at. I live in NJ and there are some polls that have had him as low as 38% and a high as 60%.
so I think it probably likely he’s somewhere right in the middle 45-50%. Which means a split like usual in this country.
He is nothing to write home about.
