[NJmaverick]

1. Good Stuff!

Go Obama! If he can win PA, then all the nonsense will be put to bed and the Dems can concentrate on the real prize.

[ampad]

2. In case some have not heard already

:kick:

[RememberWellstone]

3. Who? Bull shit

Smells like it, lets look to see who the public policy polling source is. I would'nt doubt it's an Obama juice factory.

[Bicoastal]

19. Curious--what does Obama juice taste like?

I'm guessing grape.

[krkaufman]

79. It tastes like ....

... Victory!

:bounce:

[guyanakoolaid]

83. LOL

I have never actually typed this three letter acronym. ever. but for that laugh, you can be my first.

[krkaufman]

118. Am honored. : )

:toast:

[Seabiscuit]

108. Looks like it. Smells like it. Tastes like it. Sure glad I didn't step in it.

Dogshit poll.

[krkaufman]

119. Aw, Cheborneck, I feel for ya. n/t

[Huge Ego Sorry]

87. I'm just glad we've been upgraded

No more Kool-aid for us, now we get juice.

[Fyddlestyx]

92. OK, you get an LOL, too.

:rofl:

[NEOhiodemocrat]

94. And juice is better for us

Just like Obama

[peace frog]

100. Tastes great, less filling

Fill it to the rim with Obama.

[Blue_Roses]

103. LOL

:rofl:

[polmaven]

102. Yes...

Sour grape.

[NedSchneebly]

104. soon to be sour grape ...

[Alexander]

28. He was behind by only 5% in the latest Rasmussen poll. Is this so hard to believe?

Shillbots love Rasmussen so much, they post their polls multiple times a day.

Oh right, I forgot, polls are only bullshit if they show Queen Hillary doing badly. My mistake. :sarcasm:

[democrattotheend]

30. I am an Obama supporter and I don't buy it

A 28-point swing in 2 weeks is ridiculous, barring something earth-shattering.

[Alexander]

37. Then I guess we just need to wait and see what the next polls say.

I don't think it's that ridiculous coming after Obama's speech, the "sniper fire" BS, and Obama starting to campaign in Pennsylvania.

[Cha]

41. "The Bus Tour" Bob Casey's endorsement,

Speech on Economy and Iraq..hilary's negative energy all over the place.

PAers are gettin' to know the real Obama without the clinton smears.

[Barb in Atl]

47. The only polls I'm interested in...

are the final results after the Pennsylvania primary.

I remember being really shocked at the New Hampshire primary results. No more, thanks.

I do know, though, that this 6 day bus tour can only help him (even with the pathetic bowling score).

I'm hoping for the best and letting it go there.

[krkaufman]

80. Plus the fact that the last poll was taken in the middle of the Wright controversy ...

... but before Obama's speech. There's a LOT of room for error, but it's safe to say that Obama isn't 26 points behind any more.

Today's irony alert... Clinton supporters who were citing the earlier PPP 26-point margin as gospel now crying bull**** and questioning the validity of PPP.

[pokercat999]

93. I'm an Obama supporter, I think we just need to wait

for the ELECTION results. There will be plenty of time to cheer after that. I don't see Hillary dropping out even if Obama wins PA.

I'll find it very interesting if the people of the Alabama between Philadelphia and Pittsburgh vote for Mr.O. My guess is that would mean they dislike Hillary more than they fear African-Americans. As you might guess I was born in that wasteland and don't much care for the attitudes of the majority of the people that live there.

[Hayduke Lives]

111. I'm not so sure

Did you see the turnout in State College, Alabama last week? Over 20,000 turned out on a cold day.

Remember, most Pennsylvanians don't live in Alabama. If Obama carries Philly and Pittsburgh like he should he'll pick up more than half of the state's delegates.

[pokercat999]

117. State College, home of U of PA? The most liberal city in

the heart of that Alabama we discribed. OK, when they turnout in Gettysburg or Lancaster or York or Erie or Shamokin, Allentown, Scranton, Pottstown, Williamsburg, Montgomery, Harrisburg, Sunbury, Blairsville, Latrobe or Clearfield then I'll be impressed, not by Obama but by Pennsylvania.

[Zhade]

52. clinton's been busted on multiple lies - that's pretty significant.

NT!

[Hepburn]

57. IMO: Tuzla did it.

PA is full of a lot of military and military supporters. I can see why there would be a huge swing after Hillary lying about being under fire. IMO, to someone who has really and truly undergone personal peril that bullshit lying sniper garbage would sit very badly.

So, yeah, I can see a huge swing in a short time due to Hillary's massive lies.

[krkaufman]

81. That's what I've been thinking, but you haven't heard much on that military angle ...

... re: the sniper story. The talk is just about Hillary lying, and why she felt the need to lie. I've been thinking that veterans and active duty military would be more offended by that particular lie than I would. I just viewed her as a lying buffoon, SOP for her, but they're more likely to take personal offense.

[Mother Of Four]

97. Stolen Valor- Slander

Those are the two catch phrases my husband used when he was watching it on the news.


He was in the Army for 22 years, and sacrificed alot. Up until the Tuzla story broke he was "Meh, I can't really warm up to her but I'll vote for her if she wins the nom."

He was almost frothing after they showed the little girl hugging her on the tarmac. He brought up that (HRC) by saying she was in danger of being shot, and ducking sniper fire she was calling into question the Commander and his performance at the military post. By lying about being in a dangerous situation, she was degrading every single person who ever wore the uniform.

I was upset about the whole thing, but he was angry. It's going to take convincing for him to check her name off if she gets the nom.

(Edited to add- He was stating HRC was in fact slandering the Commander in question by refuting that he took his job seriously enough to "Have that place locked down tight")

[krkaufman]

120. Thanks. Add'l perspectives I wasn't (couldn't be) aware of. n/t

[Yukari Yakumo]

58. Maybe not so rediculous...

Bosnia-gate + Wright-gate backfiring * Geraldine Fuhrer-aro + Obama having 5x more ads than HRC + Perception she's done for...

Then it seems a bit more plausible

[FatDave]

70. It does seem far-fetched.

But then again, that Tuzla sniper business is, IMO, earth-shattering enough.

[greiner3]

89. You look familiar stranger!

[daveskilt]

76. for most of us it is 'flip a coin' between the two so ....

a little negative thing (like sniper fire) or a little positive thing (like Obamas excellent speech) could push a lot of fence sitters over the other side.

My wife and i couldn't decide and indeed didn't until the day off (went back and forth a lot) in the end one of us voted hilary and one voted obama - in the weeks after we switched. I like em both. I'm as giddy as a schoolgirl over a 'not bush' option that either way is great. I love the clinton wonk factor and the obama inspiration - and I think both are competent and ready (though with very different strengths and weaknesses).

The media up to the date will have a huge impact as so many normal folks are just looking for an excuse to pick one rather than the other. That doesn't include most of us DU'ers I'm afraid - this is a skewed demographic with a penchant for bitter infighting who are looking for an excuse to eviscerate the supporters of the other candidate.

[JDwho]

96. Daveskilt, I'll join you in your giddiness for 'no more Mr. Bush'!!!!

Fence sitter, here. Once a John Edwards supporter. Agree with ALL that you've stated. Although, I'm now leaning toward Obama, after his interview w/ Matthews and his addressing autism.:thumbsup:

[krkaufman]

121. I think it may be a bit exaggerated, but it's been a very volatile 2 weeks ...

... with the last poll coming at the peak of the Rev Wright issue and before Obama's speech, and before Hillary's "sniper fire" puffery. And... the White House records showing Hillary's pro-NAFTA lobbying during the Clinton admin were also released after the last poll.

We shall see.

[slick8790]

43. Yeah, absolutely.

An Obama juice factory that had Clinton +26 2 weeks ago.

Please think before you speak.

[Bucky]

62. "an Obama juice factory" !! That's awesome!

"Neighbor, when was the last time you had a big, cold, frothy mug of Obamajuice? Well that's too long."

(Now with added fibre!)

Obamajuice has all the vital minerals and nutrients you need to get you through a rough campaign. Available in a variety of flavors, including "no pulp".




:wow:

[Laelth]

67. LOL. That's funny.

Thanks, Bucky. I needed a good laugh.

:rofl:

-Laelth

[TexasLady]

72. Holy Crap! that's my DAD@!!

seriously, he really does look like the oatmeal/diabetes guy

[beezlebum]

77. omg

i seriously thought you were wilford brimley's spawn for a minute.

[Usrename]

74. Got juice?

:rofl:

[Seabiscuit]

109. Slosh down that borg juice! Resistance is futile!

[PseudoIntellect]

73. Obama juice factory? ROFL.

The PPP Poll had Obama down by TWENTY-SIX in PA last poll about a week or so ago.

[pnwmom]

84. No reliable pollster would claim that this poll puts Obama ahead of Clinton.

The results are within the poll's stated margin of error, which means that it is just as likely that Clinton is slightly ahead.

In other words, according to this poll, the race is too close to call.

Which would still be a good result for Obama -- but I'm wondering about how reliable this poll is at all, since the pollster apparently was willing to exaggerate the results for Obama's benefit.

[leftrightwingnut]

90. Is Public Policy Polling Reliable?

http://www.publicpolicypolling.com/pppmain.asp?@spdT=B6B42829136845A69B19

Compared to Fox News, Ramussen, Zogby, etc., they usually have the lowest error in the polls that they selected for the reliability report.

Of course, they generated their own reliability report. I didn't bother to check it. Perhaps you could and let us know.

[earthlover]

98. Typical...don't like the news, blame the messenger!

PPP was the most accurate in WI, SC, TX and OH.

Seems to me the trend within the same poll is the key factor. PPP had Clinton ahead in PA by over 20 points just a few weeks ago. Now it is basically tied.

Keep in mind that Hillary doesn't just have to win PA. She has to win in the 65% range or she won't pick up enough delegates to make much difference....

Not to mention repeat this performance in all the rest of the contests.

Now, I understand with all the goal post movements and new firewalls being established by the Hillary Fantasy Tour, if Obama wins PA it will be shrugged off. Pretty soon, perhaps, we will all be looking forward to mighty Puerto Rico as the ultimate fire wall!

I can see it now....Obama wins PA by 5 points. Hillary's Fantasy Tour rushes out to say Hillary stayed close to Obama and had the "moral equivalency" to a tie thus showing her strength against McCain and Obama's inability to decisiviely win.....writing this, it sounds absurd....but I would sincerely not be at all surprised to see these exact words come from the Hillary Fantasy Tour

[easy_b94]

4. Good!!!!!!!!!!!!

[SoFlaJet]

5. Wha happened?

we were hearing numbers like he was down 12 and 7 points just yesterday

[Rosa Luxemburg]

40. maybe they don't like Rocky?

:shrug:

[earthlover]

99. Rocky lost the fight....in the movie too

[Tarheel_Dem]

6. The American people seem to be waking from their long national

nightmare. I won't delude myself by thinking that he'll win it, but in most polls, he's cut her lead to single digits, and if he wins it, it's icing on the cake. If she loses PA, and continues on, we'll know that this is no longer about her winning the nomination, it's about doing as much damage to Obama as possible to make him unelectable.

Recommended.

[samsingh]

10. the electorate is volatile

but clearly trending towards Obama.

[krkaufman]

82. FYI... It has been about damaging Obama and making him *appear* unelectable ...

... since before TX/OH/VT/RI Tuesday. The Clinton campaign has known for quite a while that they couldn't catch him in elected pledged delegates and so have been going heavily negative since around the time of the TX debate. Their only way to win the nomination is to convince enough superdelegates to ignore the voters and go with Hillary, instead.

[meow mix]

7. so this is what Sniper-gate looks like in the polls..

looks like its catchin up now

[progressoid]

8. ruh roh!

[Sean Stuart]

9. I'd love to believe this but I don't

Every poll I've heard, including two today, put him behind by at least 8 points. He's gaining, sure, but ahead? C'mon.

[Zachstar]

11. The polls are going to be all over the place for a week or two.

People like me are getting back into the political scene after a long break. During that process polls will be messed up as people on the street get caught up with news again.

Now please everyone do not get some kind of view that obama WILL win the state. He has a tiny chance sure but the bigger goal here is just to reduce the popular vote to single digits and make her net delegate gain almost nonexistent!

She is sitting on debt and cant afford to not have a blowout to go into the next states. So Clinton will pull every trick she has left... So expect polls to move rapidly and work hard to expose her politically!

A good rule of thumb. Assume Clinton is winning by over 20 percent and work like you want to turn that into an Obama win!

[SwampG8r]

27. good rule

we need to run every state like that til the end
if she wants to stay in lets bring the game
run every state like we are 20 down

good rule

[Tarheel_Dem]

42. very good advice Zachstar......

:thumbsup:

[Zachstar]

45. Thank you!

As long as we work hard and work at a steady pace with no burnouts we will see Obama in the white house.

Just work hard!

[tekisui]

51. Obama himself said Hillary is the favorite. SHe is expected to win PA.

But, he said, if they play a perfect game, they could upset her, and win in PA. But, it will take work.

[kwenu]

12. I have heard that Repubs have been switching in PA in order to knock off Hillary.

[LSK]

13. I thought they wanted her in the race as long as possible?

[IDemo]

15. Operation Confused Chaos

Half of repug crossover voters want Hillary in the race as long as possible to wreak havoc on the Democratic Party; and half just want to keep Hillary out of the White House at any cost.

[kwenu]

18. Not all of them. There are some that are chomping to send her the death blow despite Rut Limpballs.

[joshcryer]

31. Don't be naive, they don't want *either* of our candidates. Thus they've been gaming it.

Gaming it to make it last as long as possible.

Remember when Hillary was up big the Republicans went in droves for Obama.

[ginnyinWI]

14. heard on the radio yesterday--Rendell not popular in PA

Anybody know if this is true and might be affecting polls?

[Cosmocat]

32. He is a real mixed bag ...

Hard to tell off of his reelection ... The Rs shelved some better candidate to put up Lynn Swann, who was a can of tomatoes ... Rendell smoked him, but ...

No one loves the guy, at least that I know ...

[thoughtcrime1984]

35. Also, a real gas bag

He's full of it, far as I can tell!

[GoneOffShore]

53. I've never heard Swann described as a can of tomatoes

:rofl:

Fast Eddie is liked less than when he was Mayor of Philly. Mainly because of his support of the casino industry and pushing slots into Philly.

[Politicalboi]

75. And don't forget

Football. I lived there for 3 years and that is all they talk about. Eagles this Eagles that and Rendell is a big Eagle fan.

[Major Hogwash]

65. Pretty much true, Rendell has all the charisma of a head of cabbage.

He's not bright, articulate, or funny.

Sort of like a boring Dom Deluise.

[goclark]

101. My cousin lives in Philly

and he is African American.

According to him ~ Rendell is now hated in Philly ~ they are doing everything they can to get out the vote there.
He says that Rendell is doing everything he can to hold DOWN the vote in Philly so that Hillary can win in the burbs.

My cousin said the young voters are amazing!

They are knocking on doors, posting signs ~ young voters of all colors are all over Philly for Obama.

My best friend is a lawyer and he went to Ohio to work the Obama Campaign to guard against Voter Fraud etc.. He is on his way to Philly.

He said the dirty tricks that Hillary did on the ground in Ohio were beyond the pale.

He had never seen anything like it, even when he worked the Civil Rights struggles in the South.

So that's why he is on his way to Philly.

I am thinking about catching a plane and heading for Philly to ~ goclark wants to be there for Obama! :bounce:

[harun]

106. I am near Philly, Hillary's only support I have seen is in Chinatown (n/t)

[goclark]

114. What is the temperature there now?

I'm trying to decide if I'm coming for the Primary.

[harun]

116. Getting better, high 50's low 60's (n/t)

[Texas Hill Country]

107. dirty tricks? you mean like Obama's attempt to keep polls open late only in AA districts?

[goclark]

113. That's not dirty

have you ever stood in a long line to vote in a poor neighborhood?

Have you ever had someone question every issue relating to where you vote, how old you are and try to steal your vote like they did in Ohio and Florida and in many other places in the past.

I have worked the polls in Los Angeles and I know how they disenfranchise voters, moving poll sites without notice etc.

That is not a dirty trick by Obama and he is not the first politician that tried to give all citizens an equal opportunity to vote.

Thanks for inspiring me, I'm going to donate $25 to Obama right now.
:bounce:

And, I am sending $100 to the NAACP Legal Defense fund as well.

Thanks!

[Ysabel]

16. great news (thanks) k and r (n/t)... :)

[Erin Elizabeth]

17. Kick

[pompano]

22. I hate to sound ugly...

but, this is starting to look and feel like the experience you get when a favorite band you idolized in the 70's and 80's is now playing gigs at your local county fair for the cost of a buck or two, maybe just the admission price. You know, we have seen it...the mullets are outdated and the speakers squeek and you could put all the burnt out groupies in one car that will follow them to the next county, next fair?

Why do I get this feeling?

:shrug:

[Erin Elizabeth]

23. I have no idea what you're talking about. NT

[pompano]

24. Hell!

If it's any constellation to you, neither do I?

I was just thinking out loud. As the polls fall it becomes apparent the Clinton's best days are behind them.

Thats all.

[tabasco]

49. Any constellation?

Okey-doke, here's Leo!

[pompano]

59. I misspoke....

I was tired, not enough sleep these days, dreaming of corkscrew landings and running all over Tulsa in Bosnia ducking snipper fire.

Let me correct it, and sorry btw.

"If it's any "consultation" to you...."

Beautiful pic. Leo is a beautiful consternation.

:hi: and :blush: :blush: :blush:

[gcomeau]

20. I continue to be skeptical of PPP polls.

They seem to be wildly unstable. A couple weeks ago they had Clinton up by 26 in PA, and Obama up by over 20 in NC.

I don't think Obama is up in PA. I do think it is very clear that he is closing on Clinton and closing hard when we combine this suspect result with the Rasmussen, Quinnipiac AND Survey USA polls that ALL have him shrinking Clinton's lead significantly, and all except one place him within single digits when nobody had him there a week ago.

So, definitely excellent news for Obama, but I'd take this one particular result with more than a few grains of salt. I think he's more likely within 7 points or so... which would still be a death blow for Clinton even if he doesn't close that gap any further.

[thoughtcrime1984]

33. They may well be wrong, but they nailed Wisconsin!

Other pollsters had Hillary winning or very close behind. I believe PPP had Obama up by 11 or 12, and that was thought to be pie-in-the-sky. He won my state 58-41. I'm not sure which pollster had Obama up in NH by 10, when he lost by 2. According to the polls, worst case is Hil by 12, best is Obama by 2. I think this is definitely good news for us!

[Quixote1818]

21. I support Obama but that looks too good to be true. nt

[damntexdem]

25. Oh no! This is terrible!

He does better when he's behind in the polls.

;-)

[Robbins]

26. My take

I refuse to believe Obama wins Pennsylvnia.I am a big Obama supporter.However I am really thinking
he can keep Hillary's lead under 10 points.3 Polls now suggest that can happen.And polls are
suggesting Obama Is gaining support against Mccain In a general Election matchup.Now I hope he can
pull It off In Pennsylvnia.I just don't see him winning It outright.If she Is suspose to win by double digets and wins by single digets this IS a win and he can offshoot this with North Carolina
and fight her for Indiana.

[Cosmocat]

36. Yeah ...

I live in Pa, and I am backing him, but my expectation is a closer loss than the earlier polls indicated ...

Thing with Obama is, he has a clear pattern of being able to make up a lot of ground when he has time to work a state ...

[davidpdx]

66. I tend to agree

with the skeptism of this poll. There's no doubt that Obama is closing the gap though. The polls have been getting closer and closer. It will be interesting to see the results of the next couple of polls.

[sudopod]

29. What are things that are too good to be true, Alex.

Keep on fighting like we're 10 points behind!

*lol, three more weeks? I don't know if I can take it.*

[Zachstar]

44. I agree. As that may indeed be the case.

3 more weeks of steady progress. Let us just be steady and let the Clinton camp burn out. Clinton is the one who is in deep trouble when it comes to funds and delegates.

Steady wins the race here as it will when Obama will have to face the many leaders of the world.

[meow mix]

34. snipes ftw

:patriot:

[OzarkDem]

38. Sorry, not believing it

The result varies to much from the averages of other polls taken around the same time.

More fluffing.

[backscatter712]

39. This particular poll looks like an outlier.

There's no way the polls can swing that much realistically.

Hopefully other polls will come out showing more of Obama's momentum in PA - he does seem to be doing a damned good job of shaving away Hillary's lead there, but calling him in the lead at this point is wishful thinking.

[OzarkDem]

46. Quinnipac says Clinton's ahead 50 - 41

http://www.quinnipiac.edu/x2882.xml?ReleaseID=1164

Among Pennsylvania Democrats, Clinton leads 54 – 37 percent with women, and ties Obama 46 – 46 percent with men. Obama leads 51 – 42 percent among voters under 45 years old, while Clinton leads 54 - 37 percent among voters over 45.
By a 48 – 42 percent margin, Pennsylvania registered voters have a favorable opinion of Clinton. Obama gets a 49 - 31 percent favorability and McCain gets 47 – 31 percent.

[Tribetime]

48. had to check the date of your post thought it might be 4-1

[nebula]

50. Hillary should quit before she is humiliated

in PA.

[mikekohr]

54. Same Pattern Emerging, give Senator Obama time and he erases big Clinton leads

Senator Obama has 20 more days to make his case in Pennsylvania. I suspect he will continue to shrink Senator Clinton's lead or expand his. I had an opportunity to meet and talk with Senator Obama in July of 2004. I came away from the meeting knowing I had met a very different politician, and I've met many, I believe Obama is a once in a generation leader. Given the opportunity to see and watch Senator Obama closely, I believe the people of Pennsylvania will come away with the same impression that I did in 2004.

mike kohr

Obama -believe-

[lonestarnot]

55. woohoo!

:applause:

[ClassWarrior]

56. Sure, when HRC wins her big 20-point Keystone State by a measly 2 points...

...this poll will be spun to call her "the Comeback Kid."

68. Only polls which favor MY candidate are unbiased

express outrage here:


_______________________________________________________________

[IsItJustMe]

69. Good news.

[Condem]

71. Sorry.

I'm for Obama, but PPP stands for Piss Poor Polling. I would believe that SUSA is accurate at this time.

[skyounkin]

78. I don't buy it either

feels good but I don't buy it. He needs to keep working the ground game and use his well built machine to keep her win low. I wouldn't be surprised if there was a rush factor in having rethugs going over and voting for Obama to keep the race close to keep them both in. As it stands i don't see him winning it, but I don't see her winning it big either. She needs to win decisivly and i don't think that will happen.

[jackson_dem]

85. 28 points in 2 weeks get real? The Rassmussen swing for Obama is more realistic

Rasmussen had him gaining I believe five points from the last poll, which is realistic, especially given the fact he is outspending Clinton 3:1 on ads. We saw the numbers move for Obama in Ohio and Texas (he led Texas until it counted) when he blitzed the two states with ads. Once Clinton got on the air the numbers stabilized and then reversed and began to move in Hillary's direction. She didn't start running ads until a couple days ago.

[nvme]

86. I saw that one on dail kos.

they raised their eyebrows at that one. (it would be nice ) but Kos conceded that those were unrealistic figures given the other polls showed like a clinton with around a 10% lead

[eridani]

88. Still too close to call. I say Clinton by 5% n/t

[Broadslidin]

91. Dear Hillary: "Honesty is Always The Best Policy"..

:nuke: :patriot: :nuke:

[rndmprsn]

95. K&R

[Cathryn]

110. Just a matter of time...

The trend is definitely going his way. Come on, Pennsylvania! Let's finish this! Hillary has shown herself to be an outright liar and only concerned about her own political life, regardless of what's best for the Democratic Party. I'm a woman and I could not care less what her gender is or what Obama's color is. It's about who's best for the job at this crucial point in America's history. Obama has shown his ability to bring people together and after so many years of bitter fighting it's time we at least try to reach across the aisle and get something done for once!

But I gotta go for now. Gotta give more $$$ to his campaign!

[sfam]

112. Unless its a SUSA poll, I'm really not interested. nt

[AnarchoFreeThinker]

115. I love it, but I'm too cynical to take it without a boulder of salt.

[GrandmaJones7]

122. Poll results mean nothing

Look at their track record.

She will win. Then you will feel as dumb as you are!

[cooolandrew]

123. WTG OBAMA!! Now that's a fighter. =)
