A new Quinnipiac poll shows Joe Lhota further narrowing Bill de Blasio’s lead — to, uh, 39 points. More noteworthy is that a bare plurality of voters say they don’t expect De Blasio to keep his campaign promises. Even among Democrats, only 53 percent believe De Blasio will be able to keep his promises. So, uh, no pressure, we guess?
