CNN - Hillary Wins PA

[Trompe le Monde 1,107]

I also think that Obama's small-state strategy will help Democrats down ticket. It's really too early to tell what November will be like, but I'm hopeful due to the very high Democratic turnout.

For all the clamoring that some right wingers are making out of this hotly contested race, believing that this hurting the Democrat's chances for the WH, that is the punch that's going to knock them out....they won't know what hit 'em come election time in November.

I think more than ever now that it will be a joint Obama-Clinton ticket or possible the other way around. In which case I'll agree with you that voter turnout would guarantee the win. I'm still skeptical of either of them on their own.

To some extent they both appeal to seperate demographics. If both of these democraphics voted for the democratic candidate next november, McCain has no chance of winning. But I don't think Hillary nessarily needs Hillary to capture that demographic, he should be able to do it with someone else.

Part of the "record turnout" for the Demorcats in the primary has been driven by her supporters, by people who are really passionate about her candidacy. I know some people here have a hard time wrapping their heads around that, but I really don't think it can be denied. I can't confidently predict a Democratic win in November without both names on the ticket.
