Title: NC-PPP: Tossup with all except Cruz Post by: Miles on January 16, 2014, 02:35:05 PM Report. (http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/pdf/2014/PPP_Release_NC_115.pdf)
Christie- 43% Clinton -42% Clinton- 46% Bush- 44% Clinton- 47% Cruz- 41% Clinton- 47% Paul- 43% Title: Re: NC-PPP: Tossup with all except Cruz Post by: pbrower2a on January 17, 2014, 11:20:50 AM It looks like 2012 again if Christie is the GOP nominee and Clinton is the Republican nominee. It looks like a landslide if Clinton is the Democratic nominee and someone other than Christie is the Republican nominee.

Most Christie vs. Clinton matchups have a lot of undecideds though, so there's more room for it to swing one way or the other.

If their popularity continues to decline to the pointwhere they are almost assured to lose re-election, then Hillary Clinton could have some reverse coattails that allow her to win the state by a better than expected margin.

From what I'm understanding, I wouldn't call Burr "unpopular." I think he's more anonymous, than unpopular. Both Senators from NC seem to be "Generic D" or "Generic R," so I think both of their fates ultimately get tied into the national environment more than anything else.
