Pennsylvania will go to Obama. Period.
Phil, retort?
Naso knows how I feel. His "analysis" is even more assinine than those of the Obama fanatics.
"There are too many stubborn steel town Democrats!"
My father has been arguing that McCain could very well win Pennsylvania because "It isn't all big cities" and that McCain will pick up alot of the rural vote.
I'm actually a bit surprised at how Democratic Pennsylvania was in 2000 and 2004...especially in 2004...I would have expected Bush to come closer...if not even win the state. That's why I lean that Pennsylvania will be close, but go to Obama.
However...if Obama gains and holds a larger lead going into election night...then it might be like the 2000 results with a close but comfortable Obama victory.
All in all, I can only see John McCain winning Pennsylvania if he takes the popular vote by a good 2-3 pts.
while this is true, remember that a lot of these folks are Evangelicals or conservative Catholics who vote on social issues, and I think Bush did about as well with these voters as a Republican can do.
