Thank God for the Intelligent Voters of Pennsylvania!

They didn't vote by poll.

They didn't fall over to bully rule.

They didn't vote by matching the polls.

They didn't let the media tell them who to vote for.

And They didn't let a silver-tongued orator pull the wool over their eyes.

Go Pennsylvania!

And I hope Indiana and NC will follow suit. ~*:party:*~

2. Sorry - it was a complete loss for her - she's

TOAST


:nuke:

9. A 10-point spread isn't exactly "toast"

True, she can't clinch the election without superdelegates at this point, but she can still make Obama hurt.

27. She needed 20. Somewhere here someone posted what she

now needs to win the nomination without the stupordelegates reversing field on everyone...


Something like 70% of all the rest of the votes. She ain't even close.

5 more Pa's won't do it.....

3. "silver-tongued orator pull the wool over their eyes."

Nice vitriol there.

34. About the "silver-tongued orator pull the wool over their eyes." And...

Re: "Nice vitriol there."

No vitriol at all.

Cicero was a silver-tongued orator and so were JFK and Jesse Jackson who I love and admire.

But nice knee-jerk there.

[TTUBatfan2008]

40. Knee jerk?

Right, your blatant claim that he's trying to pull the wool over our eyes (as if Hillary isn't????) means that I'm somehow having a knee-jerk reaction by calling it what it is? They're both craptastic candidates at this point. Biden and Dodd were better, much better.

[NanceGreggs]

4. Yes, thank God for the intelligent voters of PA ...

... who, a few weeks ago, preferred Hillary to the tune of 25 points over Obama, and tonight gave her an underwhelming win by (so far) 8 points.

Apparently a lot of PA voters came to their senses tonight!

[Phillycat]

15. 10 points.

[NanceGreggs]

25. Last time I looked (a while ago) ...

... it was 8.

But does it really matter - 8 or 10 - when she was projected to win PA a few weeks ago by 25?

By normal mathematical calculations, that's a downward spiral ...

[Phillycat]

28. Yes, there is a difference between 8 and 10, so yes it matters.

And she was predicted to win by approx 20 points, not 25.

But don't let facts stand in your way.

[NanceGreggs]

32. Her highest lead in PA was 25 points ...

... something the Hill Camp, at the time, drove home over and over and over.

But that was then, this is now. And 8 OR 10 points doesn't change the fact that (a) she has lost support over the past six weeks, and (b) she still isn't ahead of Obama in the delegate count.

[Phillycat]

33. She was outspent 3-1, and this isn't over yet.

[NanceGreggs]

35. How is being "out-spent" an argument?

She was out-spent because he raised more money than she did, and his campaign isn't leaving a swath of unpaid creditors in its path.

Don't you ever wonder how it could be that Ms Healthcare Reform has allowed her own employees' medical insurance lapse?

[anonymeme]

36. You Got It, janesez. "It Ain't Over 'Til It's Over" And The Fat Lady Sings...

Well, I'm the Fat Lady and I'm not singin' yet! *L*

[rwheeler31]

5. Yeah go MCinsane, smart people in Penn.

[mrreowwr_kittty]

6. Yeah, I do thank the 46% who voted for Obama.

Too bad 56% were dumbass bigots who pee their pants at the sight of Osama Bin Laden.

[Cant trust em]

7. Watch me be a model of self restraint.

Ho boy.

[blue sky at night]

8. Just wondering how to reconcile...

the republican hillary runnning in a democratic primary and when she "wins" we should thank god. I hope god wants an end to the misery of the last 7 years, not four more of the same.

[GetTheRightVote]

10. yes, thank you Penn for keeping Obama in the lead, thank you very much

love you all, Go Obama Go who still leads in delegates, you go boy !!!

[Yes We Did]

11. The news and pols gave us all the talking points... 10 points, 200 thousand. Sure they danced...

but this is predictable. PA is Rigged! It's a machine state. Obama knew it and so do people inside and outside of PA.

Some of you may not have figured this out but after 7 years of listening to politicians and liars, I smell rigging like I see rigging. Some of you will fall for anything.

Oh well.

[wisteria]

20. I thought it was intersting that it has stayed just where she needed it to stay. n/t

[Spiffarino]

12. After seven years of the Douchebag-in-Chief

...a "silver-tongued orator" seems to me a fine thing.

[anonymous171]

13. Clinton had to fight tooth and nail for a state that was already hers.

[Spiffarino]

18. How far in debt is her campaign now?

I just heard she's ten million in the hole, while Obama is flush with cash. Sounds like more of a Pyrrhic victory to me.

[Phillycat]

14. We are a practical people, generally. :)

I was very proud to vote for Hillary today. :bounce:

Indiana is ours. NC we won't get.

[wisteria]

16. As a Pa resident, I have to disagree. They were lead by party inside politics,

media spin and Clinton fear and smear tactics. Oh, and I will through in some racism too. Because I have lived in Philly and in Western PA long enough to know that it still exists. Clinton's win tonight makes me sick to live hear. My daughter asked me how we could be so backwards.

[Yes We Did]

17. PA was rigged. You've been had. She was supposed to win by 10 and 200 thou votes.

[Radical Activist]

19. They voted for a last name and a lie.

[Milo_Bloom]

21. PA helped out Obama big time tonight.. Thank you PA!

[cui bono]

22. Thank you PA for making what was supposed to be a landslide into a single digit win.

[k8conant]

24. Too bad they were less than 50% of the Pennsylvania voters

although of course they did vote at the polls.

[longship]

26. What does God have to do with anything?

You mean to tell me that a so-called almighty deity was instrumental in HRC's victory?
You've got to be kidding.

I'd be more than happy for you and HRC if you had not compromised your personal pleasure
by invoking deities in what is decidedly a secular domain.

That's something which I would expect the Republicans to do.

[smalll]

31. Maybe He did have something to do with it -- after all,

isn't there something in those Commandments along the lines of "Thou shalt not put other gods before me"??? He can't be too happy with Obamania.

[anonymeme]

39. Amen to That, smalll...

Amen to That, smalll... And thank you! ~*;)*~

[anonymeme]

38. Maybe Nothing...

Maybe Nothing...

But stating it that way isn't so much my crediting a Deity as my sharing my happiness with the Cosmic Woobie, you know?

Perhaps I should have said that the god or gods of random helped tip things away from the wrong direction, IMHPOV?

As to my personal religion, I am a Deist -- like the founders of this country -- and an existentialist.

I believe in existence and the constant grinding of the absurd, as well as a Creator & Prime Mover who set things in motion, gave us this green earth and free will and is allowing us to work out and towards whatever we will without any interference or intercession from the Deity...

So I guess it's ironic that I called God into the whole thing when I knowing in fact that no Santa in the Sky had anything to do with it.

Confused? That's okay. Don't think on it too hard or your head might pop...

Oh, and I've been a Democrat since 1978.

Are you happier for me now that you know a little bit about me?

[gsaguyCLW54]

29. She will be our nominee....

[Gore1FL]

30. And they put Hillary further in the hole

[stillcool]

37. Spin, spin, spin

[Beacool]

41. She won and she won well!!!!!!!!

The media and the party leaders be damned!!!!!!!!!!

:bounce:

[Justitia]

42. Thank God for Philly, the rest, not so much. -eom
