I'm thinking that some people have no clue as to who can win and who can't. To not understand the electorate is to say that you don't want to be effective in politics.

Santorum lost in PA - and he is a great guy. It's funny that some think that PA is looking for a far right candidate(s).

The way it looks now Hillary will lose to Obama - she either has to find something on him that is scandalous or maybe grab the Hispanic and black vote.

"To not understand the electorate is to say that you don't want to be effective in politics."

And failing to understand that the conservative, pro-gun south is now the anchor of the GOP's electoral college strategy is a recipe for disaster.

"Santorum lost in PA - and he is a great guy."

By the time Santorum started to campaign, the local papers and the local TV had been pounding him for more than 2 yrs. and he was one of the most disliked politicans running against a Democrat candidate hand-chosen to beat him. (Name the same as the most beloved Governor in modern times, a pro-life socialist which is what most PA residents of both parties really love to vote for.)

His only chance to close the race was to carry the Republicrats, PA's country club suburban pro-choice voters. They, of course, turned up their nose and stayed home or voted D as they have been since he first ran.

You're correct about "some people having no clue" as to the PA electorate.

Its funny that some think the NATION is going to elect a far right candidate at this point in time.
