| | The 34% of New Jersey voters who rate his performance as poor is the worst showing of his presidency in an FDU poll. | | | New Jersey’s demographics and recent voting history, not to mention every poll taken since the June primary, suggest he’s the underdog, and if his second statewide bid does flame out, he’s probably run his last race. | | | If he doesn’t, there’s no telling how much his political stock would plummet. |

| | After the death of Stalin, Georgi Malenkov at first appeared to hold power, but ultimately Khrushchev emerged as the successor, holding by 1958 the highest posts in both the party and government—first secretary of the party and chairman of the council of ministers. | | | The party gained a legal monopoly in the Soviet constitution of 1977 (other parties had been banned since 1921), but otherwise the period was one of stagnation after the failure of Khrushchev's reforms. | | | The subsequent campaign of de-Stalinization reached a climax at the 22d party congress in 1961, and Stalin's body was removed from its place of honor in a mausoleum in Red Square. |
