According to Washington Whispers, a new Zogby poll conducted among Republicans shows Chris Christie is the candidate they feel most likely to beat Obama. Christie got 19% percent of the vote, the most of any candidate, when asked which candidate voters thought most likely to send Obama packing in 2012.

He also received 19% -- again the most of any candidate -- when respondents were asked who they would be most likely to vote for in a GOP primary. Sarah Palin came in second with 13%.
