Christie's favorability ratings in N.J. down sharply compared to a year ago.

If his ratings haven't dropped in the rest of the country yet, it's because they're not paying a lot of attention at this point. But they would, if he ever announced a candidacy.

In polling since the bridge matter was widely reported last week, 60 percent of 1,006 respondents in a Jan. 9-12 national survey by the Pew Research Center said their opinion of Christie hadn’t changed, while 16 percent viewed him less favorably, and 6 percent, more. The poll had a margin of error of plus or minus 3.6 percentage points.

Policy Speech

Among New Jerseyans, the governor’s favorability rating fell to 44 percent in a poll Jan. 10-12, down from 70 percent in February 2013. The survey of 541 adults by Monmouth University in West Long Branch had a margin of error of plus or minus 4.2 percentage points.

And hopefully they'll drop even lower after 3PM EST today when he delivers his state of the state address.

I never dreamed that he could give me as much pleasure as Jon Bon Jovi!
