46-38 Clinton/Christie (was 41-42 in their last poll)
49-39 Clinton/Paul (48-41)
49-38 Clinton/Bush (48-39)
50-35 Clinton/Cruz (50-37)

The drop-off for Christie was 9%, while it was only 2-3% for the other Republicans.

Favorable Ratings:

51-40 Clinton (53-42)
33-30 Christie (was 47-23 before)

From January 15 - 19, Quinnipiac University surveyed 1,933 registered voters nationwide with a margin of error of +/- 2.2 percentage points. The survey includes 813 Republicans with a margin of error of +/- 3.4 percentage points and 803 Democrats with a margin of error of +/- 3.5 percentage points. Live interviewers call land lines and cell phones.

Well, there goes most of that crossover appeal! And about 2 years and 6 months earlier than expected.

It lasted about as long as Hillary's Republican crossover appeal.

Christie vs. Clinton by age:
18-29: Clinton +27
30-49: Clinton +5
50-64: Clinton +1
65+: Clinton +5

Christie fav/unfav by party:
Dems: 25/38% for -13%
GOP: 45/15% for +30%
Indies: 32/34% for -2%

Clinton fav/unfav by party:
Dems: 90/5% for +85%
GOP: 16/75% for -59%
Indies: 49/42% for +7%

(And so, interestingly, Christie still has more crossover favorability with the other party.  It's just that Clinton has better numbers among her own party, and among Independents.)

Would Christie make a good president?
yes 35%
no 36%

Would Clinton make a good president?
yes 51%
no 40%

Also worth noting here that despite Christie losing ground in the GE, he's still doing better than any of his Republican rivals against Clinton.  Have we seen any recent polls in which Christie was not the strongest Republican in the GE matchups?

There are none. There is one poll from one year ago that had Clinton beating Christie by 5 and beating Bush and Ryan by 6. That's the closest thing you will find. He is by far, today, the most electable Republican candidate. Paul, Ryan and Bush seem to be the next most electable at this point.

This is an average Clinton's lead of all the polls I took from Wikipedia.

Christie - 4.4
Bush - 9.8
Ryan - 10.3
Paul   - 10.3
Rubio - 11
Cruz - 16.3
Perry - 18

Not surprising. He arguably has the highest name recognition among the Republican candidates and there is nothing that directly ties him to the scandals.

The Christie bubble has burst. He can still win, but he isn't the savior of the GOP anymore.
