You two are both idiots, its a push poll done by Lonegan's henchman, his polls showed Lonegan beating Corzine and within a few points of Christie going into the primary

But Christie's lead isn't going up nor down, it is stablizing where it was suppose to be all along 5 to 6 points.

R2k had a poll out, and it had it within 8, and we still have yet to hear from Survey USA. Also, those polls were taken 7/31, before the revelations.  I think it is closer than most people thought at this point.  But we will see.

[So because one semi-reputable poll put it at an 8 point race suddenly Christie's lead has stabilized at 5 or 6 points?  Do you listen to yourself talk?

No, I think that every reputable pollster have said people are taking a second look at Christie and Corzine and not just follow the corruption angle of Corzine. I think people are willing to think about voting for Corzine, since Christie has been open to more scrutiny.

Until now, there hasn't been a single reputable pollster out on the race since the loan developments.

In reality, though, Corzine's not losing because people think he's corrupt (or not cracking down on corruption).  Corzine's losing because people think he's done a lousy job as governor with regard to taxes and the budget.

Despite, the odds, Corzine's chances are fairing much better these days, I think not the Republicans are coming back home to Corzine, moderate Dems who are the swing group are coming back home for Corzine.

They know, that the economy is not a quick fix and things are starting to turn around.  If the economy gets better by November, the odds would be more in Corzine's favor.

Corzine doesn't have to win until the final poll is taken on election day.

I was referring to moderate Dems though as far as Weinberg is concerned.  Well, the most important thing though is the economy is improving, and by November, hopefully it will be 7.5%. The reconfirmation of Ben Bernanke confirmed that consumer confidence is higher.
