5. I'm sure it's been a long day for you...
...so you may have missed earlier reports that only 19 of the 100 showed up at the gathering of Pennsylvania leaders to meet with Senator Clinton. No biggie, however, since she didn't show up either.

8. Wow! A list of mayors who don't "get it"!
Edited on Tue Apr-15-08 06:52 PM by samdogmom
Trust me, I've saved the list. It will probably be important someday.

Let's hope these mayors come to their senses soon!


On Edit: If they don't--it's not a problem. I've got this list to remind them of their past loyalties!

14. I swear
You get one bit of good news and 20 of you hillbots post it.

2566 or 2655 I can't remember municipalities in PA elect Mayors

100/ of that number is roughly 3%

So 3% of PA mayors endorse Hillary

BTW My grandfather was mayor of a small town named Hamburg. Glad to see that isn't on the list. The rolling in his grave would be heard in Allentown 30 miles away.

15. Most of them had previously endorsed her
This is just a PR gimmick to give the illusion that Hillary is gaining new support.

Do they really think we are stupid?

16. Yes
They really think that we are that stupid.

Well "small town" mayor Micahel Nutter is in for a rude awakening when he wakes up on the 23rd and finds that over 65% of his city voted for Obama...can we say Primary challenger?
