Obama's speech virtually guarantees the SD's will nominate him
No fucking way the Democratic Party with its ideals and history will choose Hillary over Obama. Can you imagine how that would kill the party? The Democratic Party would face a civil war if it didn't choose Obama after this speech.

Will this whole mess hurt him some in the GE? Possibly. Perhaps Obama lost whatever slim chance he ever had with the redneck voters. But as for the primary, he has endeared himself to the Democratic Party. You heard nothing but effusive praise from all Democrats about Obama's speech. This virtually guarantees that Hillary will not get the nomination via SD's.

3. I won't hold my breath, but I think if nothing else
he's back to at least where he was before this came out.(probably ahead) The ones who didn't support him before will never support him no matter what he says..... that's the 30-32% that support bush. For the first time since this came out, I'm confident this is behind him and he made it a positive. Like I said, some won't listen..the same ones who had fixed views before the primaries started that you'll never change.

4. Who cares about PA? Obama will not win PA. PERIOD...
No matter what he does or says that is Hillary country. There are many people there that won't vote for a black man no matter what Obama says or does. The thing I like about Obama is that even though he knows he has no shot of winning there he still spends time there asking people for their vote. I like that about him. However, I do think he should spend more time in states that he has a good chance of winning. I'm glad Hillary is spending all of her time in PA.

Also, Hillary winning PA does not change a thing. She might net a few delegates there but that is it. Obama will still be in the lead by all other counts.
