A Chris Christie groundswell? Maybe not (Post/ABC Poll)

[WI_DEM]

(of course not it was a media creation from the start):

Nearly six in 10 Republicans and Republican-leaning independents either don’t want or don’t know if they want Chris Christie to run for president in 2012, according to a new Washington Post-ABC News poll — numbers that throw some cold water on the idea that the party is clamoring for the New Jersey governor to enter the race.

That reality is backed up by the fact that Christie runs fourth in a hypothetical Republican primary ballot — behind former Massachusetts governor Mitt Romney (21 percent), businessman Herman Cain (14 percent) and Texas Gov. Rick Perry (14 percent). Christie took 10 percent in the matchup.
