REPUBLICANS TAKE BIGGER HIT FOR GRIDLOCK

"SNIP...................................
The former New York senator has a healthy 55 38 percent favorability rating, but the lesser known New Jersey governor has a 45 18 percent favorability, including 41 19 percent among Democrats, the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pe-ack) University poll finds.
American voters blame both parties for gridlock in Washington, but they say Republicans are more responsible for Congress inability to get things done.
Looking at immigration, 54 percent of voters favor allowing those here illegally to stay and eventually become citizens, while 12 percent favor allowing them to stay but not become citizens and 28 percent say they should be deported.
Because of gridlock, however, American voters say 69 27 percent that Republicans and Democrats in Congress will not be able to work together to pass immigration reform.
On other issues, voters agree with the Supreme Court decision extending benefits to same-sex couples. They also overwhelming oppose the use of race as a factor in college admissions.

To me, she should have a much higher lead than that. It's not good at all in my view.

They think that he's too moderate and hate that he spoke well of Obama after he came to NJ in the aftermath of Sandy.
