Pennsylvania Political Primaries
It’s less than twenty-four hours until the polling places open in Pennsylvania.
With massive ad expenditures, Barack Obama has tried to bring this primary season to a close by preventing Hillary Clinton from a runaway, double-digit victory that was forecast sometime in the past. We will see if the money spent on ads paid off for Obama by tomorrow evening.
If Clinton wins big (say by double-digits) and racks up many more delegates, then her campaign is still viable and the Dems are headed for a brokered convention. If Obama pulls neck-and-neck with her in what was supposed a be a sure victory for the Clinton campaign, then Hillary will be limping away, even if she does continue her campaign.
There have been so many newsworthy quotes from BOTH candidates that, in spite of Zogby polls and others, no one really knows what the turnout or the results will be. With all the negative campaigning that has been going on on BOTH sides (Yes, BOTH sides), it will all probably boil down to who the voters decide to believe.
Are Pennsylvanians so bitter, that they must cling to their guns or religion? Are they bitter period? Do they resent the implications of those words? Will they overcome their bitterness enough to vote for “change”?
I guess we’ll know the answers to those questions at the close of polls tomorrow.
