New York Sen. Hillary Clinton has jumped to a 30-point lead over Illinois Sen. Barack Obama among Pennsylvania Democrats, taking 42 percent of the vote, with 13 percent for former Vice President Al Gore, 12 percent for Sen. Obama and 8 percent for former North Carolina Sen. John Edwards, according to a Quinnipiac University poll released today.


This compares to a 35 - 19 percent Clinton lead over Obama in an August 8 poll by the independent Quinnipiac (KWIN uh-pe-ack) University.

Clinton beats Arizona Sen. John McCain 47 - 41 percent. She also tops former Tennessee Sen. Fred Thompson 50 - 36 percent and former Massachusetts Gov. Mitt Romney 50 -35 percent;
Giuliani beats Obama 45 - 40 percent and edges Edwards 45 - 43 percent;
Obama tops McCain 43 - 40 percent. He also beats Thompson 46 - 34 percent and Romney 46 - 31 percent;
Edwards bests McCain 46 - 38 percent, Thompson 51 - 32 percent and Romney 53 - 29

4. Pennsylvania primary is April 22, 2008

Pretty meaningless state in the primary season...

I'd probably spend money on a cheese steak at Pat's in Philly as the only coffers if I was running for President.

5. The more important stuff there are the head to heads with the GOP.

I agree the PA primary is unlikely to be a large factor in determining the Dem nomination.

6. The trend there has to be disturbing for BO. nt

7. As people get to know Obama better and he becomes less of a political rorshack test he declines

Perhaps the corporate media is doing us a favor by constantly fellating him and giving him 24/7 coverage?
