Fox News Poll: Clinton, Christie On Top In 2016 Preference Test Dana Blanton December 26, 2013
Former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton and New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie -- at the moment -- are the top picks among party faithful to receive their respective party’s presidential nomination.
That’s according to a Fox News national poll released Thursday.

Clinton is miles ahead of the other possible Democratic candidates tested. The new poll finds she leads the pack with 68 percent support among Democrats. Vice President Joe Biden is a distant second with 12 percent. No other candidate garners double-digit support.
Next is Massachusetts Sen. Elizabeth Warren at seven percent and New York Gov. Andrew Cuomo at four percent. Maryland Gov. Martin O’Malley and Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick each register one percent support.
Candidate support is much more splintered on the Republican side. Christie has a narrow edge with 16 percent among the GOP faithful. He’s followed by former Florida Gov. Jeb Bush, Texas Sen. Ted Cruz and Wisconsin Rep. Paul Ryan each at 12 percent.

Okay, but what about on the Republican side?
I won’t vote for either of them. I’m tired of being a GOP useful idiot.
It is a sign of the continuing fall of a once great republic. Liberal politicians will become the liberal masters unless they are checked. How far will free people have to be pushed?

These two will likely be irrelevant by the time 16 rolls around…..polls this far out are meaningless…..
It is nice of the media to pick our candidate so early so we can rally behind Tubby Gooball.
So, how is the Republican candidate polling, and who is he?
I would have expected AIDS and Ebola to beat those two out, but only from the individual perspective. From the national perspective, those two are the worst possible choices to follow the Community Organizer in Chief.
If those choices are in the cards, I want a new deck.
If I was NJFatboy, I’d beg the the Clintons to become Hillary’s VP. The media would have an orgasm, and they’d win in a landslide.
I wouldn’t be surprised to we this as a unification ticket just to destroy the right.
They will as usual be wrong.
The CNN type media is obsessed with this crap.
Would be the end of the America Republic — but that already happened
Notice it’s a Fox News poll. We do we go for the truth?
PIAPS has already been chosen by the Global Inner Party to be the next big brother.

Please God, I pray that you are right.
Polls this far out are designed to insure the desired outcome. Name recognition is key for many low-information voters, so keeping their names in the headlines like this has its purpose.
Fox News, like MSNBC, pushing for a Christie loss in 16
Real Conservatives know Faux News is not Conservative. Only an idiot or liberal think Faux is Conservative
A funny thing happened on her last trip to her coronation.
Quite possibly, a similar derailment will happen, should she run in 2016.
In 2008, the MSM were pushing her and her nomination seemed inevitable. The MSM are repeating the same stuff from 2008 — she’s ahead, she’s winning, she’s unstoppible, she’s going to be the next ...
