Pennsylvania

Last night was the Primary in Pennsylvania. Hillary Clinton won at a 9.2 percent margin. That was better then the 25 percent margin Barack Obama was losing by six weeks ago. Now Hillary Clinton is saying that she has received more votes then any candidate ever. The math doesn't add up, but she is counting Michigan and Florida. The problem with that is two things. 1) The votes don't count, 2)She was the only candidate on the ballet. Again, campaigning and putting your name on the ballet in those states was against the rules. I don't understand where that is hard for her to grasp. Obama, Edwards, Richardsen, Biden, and Dodd all figured that one out. Another problem with her math is that four states including Iowa are not included in the final popular vote tally. Of the other three Obama won two.

Colbert tonight said it best when he compared the Clinton Campaign to the War in Iraq.
She goes in expecting to be treated as a liberator with initial success.
She is hit by opposing forces that hit harder then expected.
She has repeated requests for with drawl.
People who supported at first now don't.
Now she has a surge that has sorted worked, but is still widely unpopular.

Another thing that has come out of Pennsylvania is polling that says people will vote for McCain if Hillary is not the nominee. Pundents and the Clinton Campaign are now trying to use this to lure voters and Superdelegates. Do they not realize there are 49 more states out there? There are more voices then the ones in Pennsylvania, and those voices have called for and will continue calling for Barack Obama.
