Well the polls just closed. According to CNN they are saying it is to close to call based on exit polls. This means a few different possibilities.
A. Hillary didnt get the blowout she needed
B. They are BSing the viewers into watching several more hours of $hitty coverage.

Fox news is also saying it is to close to call based on exit polls.
They have a 4 point spread. Which will mean Hillary is DOA for the nomination.
48-52 Hillary

Dammit! See what you have done? You make me do something I have never done before, defend Hillary.
Oh i realize the context but with bill blabbering about his racial diversity and impartiality it leaves a question to be answered, do these two even talk together as husband and wife anymore? It would appear to me that Bill is trying to undermine everything with his inability to tell the truth, its seems infectious.

I didn't know Bill could even tell the truth

He has been going around stumping for Hillary and drawing even smaller crowds than Hill. I thought Bill was her ace in the hole....I guess Obama's age and big ears are more appealing than Bill smoking pot (but not inhaling) and him playing the Sax on SNL. Plus he looks old......doubt a bottle of Levitra could help him now with Monica.

Re: PA Primary Results.

I am watching FOX, it is 45 minutes after the poll closing, they've already called it for Hillary. 1% in & Hillary has a 20 point lead! I don't think it's going to be a good night for Obama. If she wins big, she could change this race altogether.

Change the race as in give her self a long shot chance. If she makes a run of all the remaining states she will still have to get 80% or more of the unpledged super delegates according to one source I saw today. Don't get me wrong I am still leaning towards her although I do have serious issues with how she has been running her campaign.

I think she takes this all the way to the convention. If these numbers keep racking up, she will be addressing the supers. The democrats no matter what do not what another McGovern, who looked great until October & then lost in November.

I think Pastor Wright has hurt Obama.

Re: PA Primary Results.

It doesn't matter how much or how little Hillary wins by, she is NOT dropping out of this race, PERIOD. She fully expects to win this via backroom deals with the Superdelegates. Heck, she's a Clinton, whadya expect?

Re: PA Primary Results.

But with Hillary she's also used to getting her way so knows...i'm actually stunned it was this close in PA. I thought the win (%) for Hillary would be in at least double digits, possibly the low teens.

As I understand, the Clintons are accustomed to receiving, not giving, blowjobs.

Re: PA Primary Results.

It will be interesting to see how the delegates break out.
55 Delegates get split by the statewide vote , Clinton will pick up six or seven more than Obama there.
Then 103 get awarded proportionally by district.
Pennsylvania has a lot of districts that award 4 delegates proportionally, which except in the case of a blowout usually means 2-2.
So I don't see a big change in the delegate count.
So another win for Clinton, and she's even further behind.

Re: PA Primary Results.

Hmm, interesting, so Hillary wins again and still has no chance of winning the nom without either A: Florida & Michigan (Which isn't going to happen), or B: Superdelegates. Of course it was pretty much impossible for a long time before PA, but winning PA does keep her in the race for whatever good that'll do for the democratic party. Whoo, just getting interesting, and we haven't even gotten to the general election yet! I have a feeling a lot of people are going to be sick of politics after this Presidential election, if they aren't already.
