3. No - But He Did Win Four Counties In The T...
Dauphin (Harrisburg), Centre, Elk (take that Sarah!) and Cambria. It's a start.

2. But what about the bradley affect?


If I'm correct, the final Realclearpolitics.com average had Obama by about 7.5. It looks like he OUTPERFORMED THE POLLS!

6. I bet it was the reverse bradley, repubs who voted for Obama but did not tell the pollsters
whatever it was, we kicked ass in PA! From 2% in 2004 to 10% in 2008! McLame never had a shot there.

7. I called PA as 8-10% for Obama
So many DU "experts" told me I was dead wrong that I stopped counting. It will be close, they said. I lived in Central PA for 8 years. It will not be close. I guess I was wrong: it was even less close than I predicted.

:rofl:

10. My prediction was at least 8-10
Edited on Wed Nov-05-08 12:05 PM by Hippo_Tron
When I saw Bob Casey seriously outperform the polls two years ago I realized that PA is bluer than we think.

9. I am very proud of my home state!
Not of my home county (Blair), but of the state overall. It will take time to change the minds of those in the T. Although Centre county and Cambria county went Obama.

I am very proud of my family members living in Blair county - 17 votes total for Obama! :bounce:

Thanks for all of your efforts!!! I had to do my work on the phone. :hug:
