Obama underwater in New Jersey

That poll showing Barack Obama underwater in New York may not have been an outlier after all.  Quinnipiac finds Obama’s approval plunging neighboring — and nearly-as-blue — New Jersey.  While Chris Christie’s numbers have rebounded a little, Obama’s have slid to a new low:

    President Barack Obama is headed in the wrong direction as New Jersey voters disapprove 52 – 44 percent of the job he is doing, down from a 50 – 46 percent positive score June 21 and the president’s lowest score ever in the Garden State.

    Again, the gender gap is huge as men disapprove 60 – 37 percent while women approve 51 – 44 percent. Turning thumbs down on Obama are Republicans 93 – 6 percent and independent voters 57 – 39 percent. Democrats approve 77 – 17 percent. …

    New Jersey voters say 49 – 45 percent that Obama does not deserve to be reelected, but say 45 – 37 percent that they would vote for Obama over an unnamed Republican challenger in the 2012 presidential race. ...

I won't believe it until I hear the gurgling and see the bubbles.

What a let down. When I saw the title of this thread I was hoping to see Zero hanging out with Luca Brasi.

This is good news. Jersey is generally a rat state when it comes to presidential politics.
I'm betting there are more polls like this, but the MSM is spiking the stories.
