Cuomo's name recognition isn't as bad as you might think, if the last PPP national is anything to go by:

In any case, Christie's name recognition is well short of 100% as well, though presumably higher in PA than nationally.
In this poll, Christie loses to Clinton by 5, yet Quinnipiac's national poll has him losing nationally by 8:

I mean, look at Christie vs. Biden: nationally: Christie leads by 3; PA: Christie leads by 13.
Rubio and Ryan, meanwhile, do worse in PA than they do nationally. Is this just because Christie's name recognition is much higher in PA than nationally? Or would a Christie vs. X race involve a significant trend towards R when compared to Romney's showing in 2012?
