PA-Quinnipiac: Clinton leads Christie by 1, destroys other Republicans

[IceSpear]

Christie has essentially had a campaign and tons of free positive publicity all throughout SE PA due to the overlapping media market. In contrast, Hillary has not even announced a campaign. This will be Christie's peak.

Pennsylvania going red/Atlas blue is the Republicans' fool's gold, same as Democrats' fantasy of painting Montana blue/Atlas red.

Speaking of fool's gold, as a Dem, I'm pretty sick and tired of the "OMG GUYZ TEXAS WILL BE BLUE/PURPLE IN JUST A COUPLE MORE CYCLES!!!!111!!!"...which has been said every cycle in the past 20 years.

If he's not winning Pennsylvania at his peak, then he's not likely to win it almost three years from now.

What makes you think this is his "peak"?

Well, months of glowing media coverage in Southeast PA (and nationwide, for that matter) with little to no pushback since Buono had no campaign. You can get bet Clinton, or any Democrat, wouldn't ever let Christie get as much interrupted positive media coverage as he's gotten in the past couple months.
