Why is the media having 'organisms' about Hillary winning in PA?
it's amazing the support for the slim victory of Clinton. She's going to win within 10% which is unacceptable to her doners! She should have had a landslide in PA to isten to her. Annie! This is the last pit stop Hillary.

1. Because. They want this to go on as long as possible
because it generates interest, which in turn, translates into viewers.

You seriously don't know?

9. Yea, of course.
It's just like in sports.

The network doesn't want a team to sweep the playoff series....they want it to go to the final game so they can air and charge for more ads, etc.

It boils down to money. You're right.

6. Most of us never thought Obama would win PA
Even though he managed to close a huge gap down to single digits. I wonder what they'll say when he trounces her in NC?

10. "When he trounces her in NC"

7. Obama is way cooler than any of them.
They're jealous. He makes them look bad.

11. Same way as the BCS
...in college football. The college teams capable of bringing in the most dollars always gets the higher rankings. A big Che$$ game.
