Quote by: sdbest  Hillary won Pennsylvania by 9.32% not 10%. A trivial difference perhaps but it rounds down to 9 points, not 10, and that has a certain psychological impact. Also PA was tailor made for her appeal: older women, white union members, lower education levels, etc. Not to mention the fact, too, she's a hometown girl who had the local political Democratic political machines backing her. The fact that she won by only about 9% is a very, very poor showing indeed.
If you go to RealClearPolitics.com and look at the Polls page, you'll see that Obama leads in the national polls against McCain, not Clinton. This can change from day to day.
Which all suggests the question, if Hillary, who doesn't think much of Obama, can't beat him in most states and can barely beat him in states where she should win by a landslide what makes her think she can beat McCain who she has suggested is better than Obama? |
I used the CNN poll results as they have the larger polling population.
The fact is that we are a stalemate and a photo finish. PS - as it is commonly done the rounded off the percentage to the next highest number.
