It's 2008.

Its 2008, but Democrats in Pennsylvania are still conservative relative to their fellow Democrats in other Blue states. As Chris Matthews says, Pennsylvania Democrats are John Wayne Democrats, not Jane Fonda Democrats.

The majority of Democrats who vote in Pennsylvania in November 2008 will be Democrats who were old enough to vote for Casey.
 
McCain is still the underdog, but he is not going to be crushed as some here predicted. Current polling shows that this is going to be a very competitive race in a year in which the Republicans were always going to be the underdog since they have held the White House for the past two terms. Since the end of World War II, there has only been one time when either party won the White House 3 times in a row, Reagan's 2 plus Bush Sr. 1.
 
PA hasn't voted Republican for the Presidential since 1988, conservative state though it is. Maybe it will this year (although I doubt it) but that hasn't been the trend. But yeah, we're still a swing state.
 
No matter which way the popular vote goes, there wasn't a big enough swing tonight to really push Hillary near Obama, and certainly not to the forefront. At the very best, tonight could be something for her to build momentum off of, and she needs all the momentum she can get.

But there's still a ways to go yet in Texas.

"Win" sounds nice for her, but what about the delegates? Those are a bit important too...

I think Obama will get more delegates in Texas, even if he gets less votes. And that is a crap way to do things.
 
Awwwww man.

EDIT: This is JUST LIKE THE WEST WING!!!

What Has Rush Wrought?
Posted by: Hugh Hewitt at 8:18 PM
If Hillary ekes out close wins, stays alive, gains the nomination and the White House, will Rush hold the Bible at her Inauguration?

Bill O'Reilly was just on with Brit Hume giving Rush the credit for the Clinton comeback --which is certainly the least expected bit of Campaign 2009 news in this very, very long campaign.

A month ago talk radio was dead. Now it has resurrected Hillary?[/q]



(Hugh Hewitt was, quite possibly, the only man on earth as in love with Mitt Romney as our very own diamond)

He can't be serious. :lmao: Rush singlehandedly resurrected Jesus too, that was on Fox and Friends this morning (home of the REAL WOMEN anchors who don't wear pants like that mannish Hillary)

Bush is endorsing McCain today

JINX!!!!

If McCain is smart, he'll run like hell from that. Considering the animosity that most of Bush's own party has for him, I wouldn't consider his seal of approval a good thing.
 
it strikes me that Obama is still ahead in delegates. it seems nearly impossible for Hillary to win, unless she cheats. and continues to attack. that worked, right? her attack ads? her "as far as i know i am unaware that he is anything other than not a Muslim"?

:yippie:

it also seems impossible for me to believe that she would have won Michigan with it's enormous african-american population in Detroit.

so, what do the Clinton's do next? i mean besides 6 more weeks of Rezko at 3am and turbans in photos and trumping just how qualified McCain is on national security?
 
I think the only way she wins is if she steals it, i.e counting MI or FL.

She has openly stated that she'd like MI to count, after she said it shouldn't.

This is going to get ugly I think.

Don't you love how McCain is getting a victory handed to him on a muddy platter?

This election is going to get nasty, and all the enthusiasm and new interest in politics Obama has created may be wiped out by the ugliness of the Clintons.

Congrats Hillary, every day this goes on the Republicans have a greater chance to win in November :happy:
