Hillary Clinton bests Chris Christie by 10 points in a hypothetical presidential match-up, a new poll shows.
According to a poll released Tuesday by NBC News, the former secretary of state leads the New Jersey GOP governor 44-34 percent.
Both Christie and Clinton are considered top possible 2016 contenders, and the survey followed Christie’s decisive reelection win in the Garden State last week.
The poll also showed that Clinton enjoys more unified Democratic enthusiasm for her potential presidential bid than Christie does from his party.
Thirty-two percent of GOP and GOP-leaning respondents called Christie their top choice for the Republican presidential nod; 31 percent named someone else.
In contrast, Clinton was the first choice of 66 percent of Democrats and Democratic-leaning respondents for the Democratic nomination; 14 percent said they’d opt for another candidate.
The poll, conducted by Princeton Survey Research Associates International, surveyed 1,003 adults Nov. 7-10 and has a margin of error of plus-or-minus 3.6 percentage points.
The sample included 428 Democrats and people who lean Democratic, with a margin of error of plus-or-minus 5.5 percentage points; and 394 Republicans and those who lean Republican, with a margin of error of plus-or-minus 5.8 percentage points.

Well, you know Democrats. The time has come for a woman president. It doesn't matter who, just so long as they have the right genitalia. It's the same fierce urgency of now BS that got that incompetent boob Obama elected.

Exactly.
I absolutely, positively hate identity politics. It's institutionalized racism/sexism/whateverism, but that is how the stupid American public thinks, (thanks to the traitorous media).
So, as I've said before, if the GOP doesn't find a woman to run in 2016, it will be a lost cause.

Exactly. Get ready for your next unimpeachable president...
Let's see... can we survive 16 years of this?
I guess... We survived a world war and that communist Roosevelt...

Identity politics, like it or not, is here to stay. It's what happens naturally when you try to force a mixture of ethnicities/demographics into one "pot". Better get used to it.
The key to winning in the future -- if there _is_ a future for us -- will be for conservatives to figure out what _our_ "identity" is, and then to rouse others like ourselves to it.
If you want to see an example of how this works, look at the political parties in the deep south. Those folks clearly understand about "identities", and vote accordingly.
Having said that, the GOP _has_ "a woman to run in 2016".
You know who she is, as do I, as does everyone else reading this.
If Hillary runs, and the Pubbies want to beat her, they'd better face up to what they have to do to win...
Prediction:
They won't.
