The collapse of the steel industry IIRC... even stranger in PA was the fact that Reagan won every county in the Anthracite Region (normally strongly Democrat)... I can only guess that was something to do with the areas social conservatism and the "Reagan Democrat" factor.
Even wierder was the fact that the Democrats actually picked up PA-11 from the GOP that year (Kanjorski's held that district ever since)

Um... the Democrats have recovered a *lot* of lost ground in the Anthracite Region since '84.
