Hillary Clinton will probably win PA, but polls show the race tightening. Obama has a chance.

If you want to give him a better chance, then you can donate at his official website.

I just made another donation to the Obama campaign.

4. It's the biggest state remaining...
...and she's emphasized her performance in big states.

It's a blue state, and she's emphasized her performance in blue states.

It's a primary (not caucus) state, and she's emphasized her performance in primary states.

I'm not sure how she could spin a loss in PA.

11. The same way she spun her loss in Texas.
Don't you get it? There is nothing... NOTHING... they can't spin or justify. They all have any voices of criticism on MUTE. They cannot admit weaknesses. They cannot admit defeat. Anyone pointing out the math is against them. Anyone who supports Obama is a traitor. Hillary is the victim. These are all just groundless personal attacks. There was NOTHING wrong with her promoting McCain while condensing Obama down to just a speech. There WAS sniperfire in Tuzla. Hillary WAS against NAFTA. She had no idea Penn and Wolfson also worked on the Columbia deal. There's nothing wrong with her donors sending threatening letters to Dean and Pelosi. Hillary is well liked by everyone. The public TRUSTS Hillary. Hillary's ahead in the electoral college. Hillary Hillary Hillary.

They are going to repeat the same things over and over and over and they think by doing so, it will actually become true. She can take it to the convention if she likes, but it's just going to result in the most humiliating loss so far.

8. As a big state, a blue state, and a primary state,
...it fits in so well with her strengths that there wouldn't be much support for to continue if she loses.

The undeclared superdelegates will probably announce for Obama shortly after PA if he wins.

6. Not happening ...
unless she has an couple more sniper story incidents, at least ...

I live here in Pa, central PA, in fact a county that has had a couple thousand registers R voter edge for decades until Obama flipped us to a D voter edge, and the excitement up here for him is great ...

But, Pa is an old state, with lots of old people ...

Bottom line, they go with what they know, and that means the Clinton name ...

I think he makes it a tighter race than earlier polling made it out to be, I think he can get it to or maybe even under a five point loss, but I just can't see him getting her here, without something really bit happening ...
