Clinton Wins Pennsylvania
2008-04-23
WASHINGTON -- Sen. Hillary Clinton won Pennsylvania's Democratic primary Tuesday night, Fox News projected. A win would give her embattled fight for her party's nomination a boost as she tries to fend off rival Sen. Barack Obama. For the Democrats, 188 delegates and superdelegates were at stake in Pennsylvania on Tuesday.
But, but, I thought it was reported that the Republican crossovers were going to vote for BHO.
With 94% of the vote at 11PM CDT, it's Hildebeast 55%, 'Bamer 45%. That should keep us going to Indiana and North Carolina at least, if not to the convention.

#15  AA5839: Well, considering that NO ONE voted for BO in FL and MI, then yes, it can only help her. His (BO's) name wasn't even on the ballot, due to the DNC rules, *snicker*

Popcorn anyone?

#13  Democrats 2000: We NEED to count EVERY vote in Florida (including imaginary ones).

Democrats 2008: Florida and Michigan votes don't count.

#12  I read/heard somewhere today that if you add in MI and FL popular votes, Hillarity leads Obamessiah. If true, you'll never hear the cry for popular vote over electoral college from the DNC. At least, not until after the Dems lose.

#8  #1, about 2 1/2 hours ago Yahoo News was reporting:
Clinton won at least 80 of the 158 delegates up for grabs in Tuesday's contest, according to an analysis of election returns by The Associated Press. Sen. Barack Obama won at least 66, with 12 still to be awarded.

#7  This was part of the plan: by making the democrats think they would have a filed day, that they could if they wanted have an ape elected as long as it wore democratic colors it incited them to select a loonie instead of an electable candidate.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAAH!

#6  This is good for McCain - it extends the dogfight in the Dems side, eats into their money, and lets them sling mud that McCain can use later on. Plus its producing a hell of a fissure in the Dem party.

Hell of a choice: go with either of 2 inexperienced junior Senators - one which wil piss off the loonie left if not nominated, the other will piss off the feminists and aprty traditionalist if not nominated.

Funny thing is Hillary might win it, then the nutters at Kos and the hard stupid socialists left starts screaming about stolen nominations. And they are stuck with a candidate known for being strident, whiney and a liar, and associated with "dirty politics" of the Clinton/Carvile machine. And her being married to a president doesn't make her presidential any more that Yoko being married to John make her a Beatle.

But if Obama wins it, you have a candidate that failed to win his own party primaries in ALL the large states, and got there only by "machine politics", Chicago style (stuffing caucuses and bending "superdelegates"), and a candidate that has been brought there only by press coddling. Obama is socialist, has terrible personal associations, and does not react well under real pressure (Just let me eat my waffle).

The one election where they could have waltzed in the front door of the Whitehouse, and this is what they do.

Its nearly as bad as the GOP's mishandling of their Senate campaigns (the sheer mismanagement and stupidity of which amaze me).

#2  To all of you who took Kos advice and voted for the lesser of two weevils, thank you. Let's see how Obama campaigns after this little setback.
