If there is a must-win state for President Obama, it’s Pennsylvania. The only time that Republican presidential candidates win Pennsylvania is when they don’t need it, while no Democrat has won the presidency without Pennsylvania in the past 60 years.
Therefore, recent polling coming out of that state does not bode well for Obama. A newly released Quinnipiac poll shows that, by a margin of 11 points (53 to 42 percent), Pennsylvanians don’t approve of his job performance — a 13-point swing (against him) from a year ago. By a margin of 10 points (52 to 42 percent), they say he doesn’t deserve to be reelected — a 16-point swing from last summer. By a margin of 11 points (54 to 43 percent), they don’t like his policies. And by a margin of 12 points (52 to 40 percent), they want Obamacare to be repealed.
