New Rasmussen Poll: Pennsylvania - Clinton 47% Obama 42%

[Mr. Big Dog 10,747]

Plus record numbers of PA residents are registering as Democrats to vote in the primary, perhaps a good sign for Obama.

or a good sign for HC. Look how easy that spin is?! Anyone can do it.

Easy? Perhaps. Close to reality? Not so much.

Penn.

Well, Survey USA paints a different picture.

Pennsylvania

Clinton 53, Obama 41

--------------------------------------------------

Well, all week long the Baracki barons of the commentariat have been touting Obama's unfavorables at 37% vs HC's close to 50 in the NBC/WSJ poll last week whcih the pollsters themselves admited was flawed because they stacked the survey population with more African Americans.

Even if Hillary wins PA and other states, she will still be trailing in pledged delegates, popular votes, most states won.

And he hasn't won a single large state that is required for a win in November & is blocking FL & MI from being counted.

Neither candidate has won any large state against a Republican. To conclude from a party primary win or loss that a candidate will carry or lose that state in November is ridiculous. It's not like Hillary will carry TX and it's not like Obama would lose CA and NY.

Both candidates boycotted FL and MI and pledged not to campaign in those states and to withdraw from the ballot. Hillary wants to change those rules after the game has been played out of pure self interest.

You're 8 months too early.

Stop dreaming, Steven and simple male!

PA voters are not sexist like the voters in Washington, Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, Alaska, Hawai'i, North Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Louisiana, Missouri, Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, Connecticut, Vermont, Maine are. PA voters are better. They will catapult Hillary to victory, the sexist/ageist voters of Washington, Idaho, Wyoming, Utah, Colorado, Alaska, Hawai'i, North Dakota, Nebraska, Kansas, Louisiana, Missouri, Iowa, Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, South Carolina, Virginia, Maryland, Delaware, Connecticut, Vermont and Maine be damned!

I hope you're right - my Clinton shares are losing money (I'm currently $400 down - bought at $16

average, current price $10+). It's still ok because she made me $500 earlier and I'm also up $300

on McCain.

I found a great site for conservative cartoons. Having two targets is better than one!!

Eight counties had a Democratic increase of more than 5.0%:

* Dauphin County (Harrisburg-Carlisle): 7.3%

* Monroe County: 6.6%

* Cumberland County (Harrisburg-Carlisle)

* Lehigh (Allentown): 5.8%

* Delaware (Philly's inner suburb): 5.7%

* Philadelphia: 5.6%

* York: 5.2%

* Chester (the most Republican Philly suburb): 5.0%

The New Registrations were fairly uniform, but most prevalent in the Clinton stronghold of Northeastern Pennsylvania. The switching was heaviest in Philly and its suburbs. On balance, unless the Obama team was able to register Obama-leaning voters even in Clinton country, the new voters will give him little to no boost.
