Crazy Talk between Geoff and Stephen...
Stephen: “I won the states that we have to win — Ohio, now Pennsylvania,” Clinton said on CNN in one of six appearances on morning news shows Wednesday. “It’s very hard to imagine a Democrat getting to the White House without winning those states.”
Against another democrat. A totally baseless argument that has no base in reality. It's amazing that their camp is pulling this shit.
Geoffrey: She won mainly Western and Central Pennsylvania. That was a given. As a Penn native, my mother/father were from Pittsburgh and it has a tendency of being old school labor/liberal. Those people were always going to vote for Clinton. However, those people will also vote Democrat handedly in any election. The real battle is going to be on the other side of the state in the Philadelphia suburbs. There, most people are independents or Reagan Democrats and a majority voted for Obama. So for her to say she is going to win that state come November is not necessarily a shoe-in. A lot of those Philly suburban voters could swing to McCain if she is the Democratic nominee.
Pennsylvania has the moniker Pennsyltucky for a reason. Ask Court. There is more Klan membership in Pa than any other state in the nation. Lots of hunters and people pro-gun.
But for Obama to close the gap to 10 percentage points after trailing by almost 21 percentage points shows the tide is swinging toward him, not her. This was her last gasp of air before she drowns. Besides, the $3.5 million she raised supposedly yesterday means instead of $10 million in debt, she is now $6.5. And we trust her with this economy? C'mon, she's just another tax and spend oligarch!
