Sorry, I was listening to the NBC whinefest for a second. I was surprised to se Chuck Todd in there giving Olbermann hope ion the burb for a closer result. Personally, I think it goes to 10 right now.

Obama has a huge margin in Philly. He's winning just barely in Delaware county. Hillary won Bucks and Montgomery. Those are blue collar. Her win with blue collar voters is appaent across the state. She got 74% in Scranton. Same in Allentown. She beat him in Redding. Obama is not winning white voters.

She trounced him in the rural counties. Pittsburgh with young professionals and AA's had Obama doing better, but he can't win the rural vote, the Reagan/Casey dems, the Catholic vote..
