Hillary Will Win Pennsylvania By A Huge Margin!
Not really, but a national staffer told me today we're supposed to keep expectations low for the primary.


Our little group did knock on over 1000 doors today though.

18. She won't have to.
He's going to drop out and give her all his delegates before PA.

Really.

6. Hillary will win the nomination and the presidency!
She will be elected to nine consecutive terms and wind up on Mount Rushmore and the 20 dollar hillary.

10. I'm hoping if I can lower expectations enough
then hopefully, in some way, my small and ridiculous contribution will somehow help bring this fucking primary to a close already. This shit needs to end.

16. If he can keep her to 10 points in PA, I'll be satisfied
I have a feeling that this is going to be a very hard state to work Obamagic in, but I TRULY appreciate all your work. Keep it up. Can't wait until April 22!

23. I've Heard She Needs to Beat Him By At Least 60% To Even Remain Competitive
I think the campaign she is running will get the results it deserves.

24. Of course no one will take me seriously, being an O guy - BUT
...I sincerely think that her getting a single digit win is not going to be considered "good news." Maybe her campaign can effectively spin it. But she had such a huge double digit lead going in, it is kind of hard to run with the "he's not electable" bit when he can generate so much movement within the electorate.

To me, the excuse that he spend way more money doesn't really matter. He has the money. She doesn't. Which is one of the many variables when considering electability. Do I think it is money only that brings him success? No, but I also don't think you can talk about the fact that he has massive money to spend as some kind of political detriment to electability.

28. The ability to raise funds means you can get your message out.
Something that ANY political race hangs on is the ability to effectively get YOUR message out to the voters so they will have a favorable impression of you when they go to vote.


If the voters do not have any idea who you are, your campaign failed.

If the voters have negative impression of you, your campaign failed.

If your cmampaign has not got enoguh cash to GET your message out, your campaign failed.


I'm seeing a couple of areas where one of the campaigns is not going too well...

30. She clearly is going to win it 75/25
Anything less than 75-25 is a huge loss for her.
