How come PA gets so much attention on this forum? It's unfair. Michigan should sue for equal time. Tongue

You are absolutely correct.

For me Pennsylvania was the ultimate test of Obama's strength and weakness. Remember it was almost like a genereal election campaign is was like  what 6 weeks between primaries.
Obama spent time ,  outspent Hillary 3 to one , he let them see the Obama charm up close and personal

And what did we learn in the Pennsylvania primary .. This is what I learned Obama is weak. He cannot win the demographics  that he must win big in November.
He cannot win Reagan Democrats. He cannot expand his base. Despite outspending Mrs. Clinton two-or-three to one, Obama's base is elite white liberals, college students  and blacks.
 
He couldn't  get the  the Reagan Democrats, the blue-collar people, the clingers; the bitter clingers, the guns and religion crowd. They heard it and they also hear Jeremiah Wright when he talks and they hear about Bill Ayers. It is interesting, you know, the media kept  reporting time and time again here how Obama was  exciting so many voters; how he is bringing all these new voters out.

 But he kept losing! Obviously Hillary's base was bigger and was more excited than Obama's  but you wouldn't have known it
