11. I wondered why the Clinton camp set the "goalposts" there
The usual I guess.

13. The Clinton Camp? Are you referring to the Democratic Party of Pennsylvania?
They set the rules, sourpuss.

12. Didn't know that! Wonderful news.
I think she can also do well in the other remaining states, save Montana and Oregon. Oregon may surprise us though.

15. PA for Hillary Clinton would be indeed another big state....
Edited on Wed Mar-05-08 01:08 AM by GreenTea
to add to her resume, now it's on to another big state, PA, (158 delegates) which, would probably tie up the Convention in knots if Clinton wins....IF....Clinton wins in PA (and she does now have the momentum)...well, then, it's probably hers!

16. That should be interesting.
I can't help but wonder how much of Hillary's Ohio win was due to the Dittohead vote. Repubs crossing over deliberately to vote for her because Rush told them to screw with the primary. She will not have their support in November.

18. Works both ways. This will be a pure test of who Democrats want on the ticket.

17. Closed, yeah! As I said before, one can come to terms with losing, but
not losing unfairly.

I was holding my breath for Ohio and Texas because of the crossovers.
