By Matt Rooney | The Save Jersey Blog

A new Quinnipiac Poll out Thursday morning finds him in 8th place nationally with 4%, which while not a fantastic result in of itself could nevertheless help secure a spot in the next debate (other recent surveys showed him dangerously dropping into 11th). To make sure it happens, in between fundraisers in Philly and Maryland today, the Governor will attempt to further boost his national polling position is appearing on Fox & Friends, CBS This Morning, CNBC’S Squawk Box, and The Mike Gallagher Show.

As for the macro-presidential contest? Not much good news for Hillary Clinton or Jeb Bush, for starters, and there’s a little more evidence that Donald Trump might have a primary ceiling, but I think this quote from the Quinnipiac press release sums it up nicely for Electon 2016’s three most famous names:

‘Liar’ is the first word that comes to mind more than others in an open-ended question when voters think of Clinton. ‘Arrogant’ is the word for Trump and voters say ‘Bush’ when they think of Bush.”

So much for Jeb! I guess…
