38/38, 23% undecided. Also, FWIW, Brown crushes Mandel in a rematch 47/33.

Well,
If Trump wins the WH, Portman wins.
And if Clinton wins the WH, Strickland wins.

No party split ticket!

Strickland like Murphy are staying competetive in GOP leaning states

Trump is having problems in OH/Va

Not true. 

Strickland can well win Trump voters in Appalachia who would be turned off by Portman's trade record.

Clinton is more likely to win Va but lose OH and Strickland edges Portman. But Portman isnt taking an active roll at party convention that's how worried he's with Trump

May I ask why?

He's a bland senator,  he has never led the polls by a big margin, Strickland is a top tier recruit. Money don't buy elections.

I don't think it's plausible Portman is elected if Clinton wins, but I do think it's plausible Strickland gets elected if Trump wins. Unlikely, but plausible.

It's less about outperforming and more about where they will be performing. I expect Clinton to have higher numbers in the North East than Strickland, and I expect him to have higher numbers in Appalachia, where he may well get some split-ticket support.

Portman: pro-trade, against TPP for election
Strickland: hard anti-trade
Clinton: pro-trade, against TPP for election
Trump: hard anti-trade

Well,
I still think whoever wins Ohio in the presidential election (except if this is really close) will make his party win the senate seat.

Portman has a colorful résumé, and won more popular votes in 2010 than Strickland statewide.  Plus, wasn't Strickland an unpopular governor?  Anyway, this will be close, but my gut tells me Portman will narrowly prevail.

He was a so unpopular governor he lost only by 2 points, he carried many appalachian counties, that's turnout that sank him to be honest.
And even if it won't matter, Strickland's margin in 2006 was bigger than Portman's margin in 2010 (in %), but that won't matter because the contest will be different.

Portman isn't going to overperform the republican nominee, so whoever wins the WH (except if this is <1%) will make his party win the OH senate seat.

As Windhammer says, different races. Portman has a very easy election in '10, about as easy as Strickland had in '06. This race is going to be down to the wire.

On the contrary; I think this poll shows that the scenario of Clinton/Portman is much likelier than Trump/Strickland. First of all, at least in terms of margin, Portman does better than all the non-Kasich presidential matchups; while Portman and Strickland have similar favorabilities (-8 and -9, respectively), Strickland is better known and more defined (21% no opinion; 28% for Portman).

Also, just in general, Portman has been fundraising much stronger than Strickland, and there's been a general pattern of old ex-Governors coming back to run for the Senate and losing in recent years.

I think Trump/Strickland is an impossible scenario. Trump wins only if something terrible happens to the Hillary campaign, and anything that terrible will probably have Democrats collapsing up and down the ballot. Clinton/Portman is likely, Clinton/Strickland is definitely possible; Trump/Portman is extremely unlikely but the path to it exists. There's no path that leads to Trump/Strickland.

You're greatly underestimating disaffected, rustbelt independents. Trade is going to be the biggest issue here.

Also, yes, Portman has been fundraising more strongly than Strickland, but so long as Strickland can match pace, he's okay. Ohio Republicans always raise more. Mandel isn't Portman, but Brown had in excess of $40 million spent against him, and still pulled through.

Possibly, but I think Appalachia may have turned against the Democrats for good. Just look at how heavily they went against their former hero Mark Warner in Virginia. Also, shouldn't Portman outperform Trump in the suburbs?

I still can't believe by how much Mark Warner's support collapsed in 2014 in the Appalachian districts (5, 6, 9).

Vosem is right. I'm surprised to see the opposite argument at all. We will likely see Trump underperforming Republican Senators across the country.

I wonder how many TRUMP Strickland voters there'll be in Eastern Ohio.

Portman can still win I am just waiting for that brutal ad campaign that tanks Strickland in the end. Also, in a debate I could see Portman eviscerating Strickland on his record. Ohio will be reelecting Portman.

Not with Trump carrying down GOP ticket he can bring Portman, Grassley and Toomey down

Grassley is a pipe dream.

Toomey is somewhat likely.

Portman is a tossup.
