He's baaack: Romney crushes potential GOP rivals in NH primary poll

Chris Christie narrowly leads the pack of potential Republican presidential candidates in a poll of New Hampshire residents released Friday, but Mitt Romney crushes the competition when his name is added to the field.

Christie, the cantankerous and controversial New Jersey governor, emerged as the most polarizing name on a list of 13 politicians presented during a phone poll between June 19 and July 1.

While 46 per cent of New Hampshire Republicans like him, another 36 per cent don't. And he topped the list when GOP respondents were asked who they definitely would not vote for.

But with 19 per cent support in a hypothetical presidential primary, Christie has emerged as the flavor-of-the-month front-runner.

If Christie is elected, it will be not much more than Obama-lite....with an R after his name....

If this guy wins the nomination, we will be sure to loose. Come on! Surely the Republican Party can come up with a better candidate than this rino! Please say it isn't so!

Can you add a name to the person you are referring to? Christie or Romney?

It would be a Godsend to see Dr. Ben Carson on the ballot and to watch him transform the U.S.Gay back into the U.S.A.!

Romney/Carson

At least Mitt Romney isn't afraid to clean house and balance a budget!
