My notes on this from the Clinton call weren't clear, but USA Today posts the audio, which is.
On the Clinton call earlier, Mark Penn said, "We believe that [the Pennsylvania primary result] will show that Hillary is ready to win, and that Sen. Obama really cant win the general election."
He later revised it to say that losing Pennsylvania would raise questions about Obama's ability to win.
But it's a pretty strong thing to say.

Has anyone broken down those polls to an electoral map and compared the Obama vs. McCain map to the Hillary vs McCain map?Karl Rove has. His results show that McCain beats Hillary, but Obama beats McCain. But he emphasized that his analysis was based on the current polls.

Did Bubba inherit his apparent dislike for aspirin from Pres. Bush as well. Cause Clinton destroyed more aspirin (and probably some innocent people) than terrorists as best I can tell.
It would seem that way. Maybe there is some secret Clinton-Bush Investment Group that is holding lots of stock in Tylenol, Advil, Motrin, and by blowing up aspirin factories they're helping their own portfolios?
LOL

But, she couldn’t win either.
