PA-Mercyhurst University: Hillary & Biden lead favorability ranking

[IceSpear]

Hillary's numbers are no shock, but a few of these are quite surprising.

- Biden being so high (I know he's an honorary homestater, but still)
- Santorum being relatively high
- Christie being so low (Quinnipiac had him at 45-36 in June...could the Dallas hug have hurt him that badly? I kinda doubt it)

7 months is a long time in politics and polling.

Christie's numbers have even dropped into the negative in NJ recently, so PA might just follow this trend.

Santorum's and Biden's numbers are surprisingly high, yeah ...

It seemed like he was on an upward trend as Bridgegate gets further and further in the rearview mirror, which would make sense. If NJ is bucking that trend, perhaps it's because they're tired of him putting nationwide ambitions ahead of the state?

The thing they shouldn't do is half-ass it with a small spend.

I have a feeling this is exactly what's going to happen. They'll know it's not too competitive because Hillary>Obama here, but then they'll realize they have such a small chance of winning the Presidency, they'll try to save Toomey and thus the Senate is a last ditch effort. It's just a disaster waiting to be mismanaged yet again.

Romney repeating McCain's last minute Pennsylvania gambit was quite amusing. You'd think they would just contest it from the beginning.
