Rendell-Casey, Round 2 By Salena Zito TRIBUNE-REVIEW Sunday, April 6, 2008 To win Pennsylvania, Barack Obama must pull off a "Missouri" -- that is, do what he did in the Show Me State: win a handful of heavily populated, liberal-centric counties and call it a day. Ironically, that is what Ed Rendell (a Hillary Clinton supporter) did to Bob Casey (an Obama supporter) in Pennsylvania's 2002 Democrat gubernatorial primary.

Yeah .... we know.
An Obama win in Pa could (Please, God ... please?) be the proverbial straw that would rid Pa of fast Eddie.

Obama is not going to win PA. Will probably lose by 10+ points.
The tag team game these two are playing could go either way.
The bwitch may take the popular vote, but I don't think the delegates are guaranteed.
All I'm saying is, an Obama win would be Rendel's loss.
Too many white senior citizen former union workers and white senior citizen widows in PA for Obama to win. PA’s one of the oldest states (age wise) of any in the nation. That will help Hillary.
Obama will take Phila. and Pitts. handsomely, but will lose big in the more rural parts of the state.
Besides, Fast Eddie said that PA will not vote for a black man.
2 dopes supporting 2 other dopes!!!!
Yeah Casey that great antiabortion Catholic is supporting Obama
Pennsylvania’s probably going to be Hillary’s swan song. I expect a hollow Clinton victory. She’ll spend as much as she needs to win here, even at the risk of her Indiana and North Carolina efforts. Hillary will win the Pennsylvania battle, but she’ll set herself up to then lose the nomination war.
I don't even think that Obama is going to win Philly.
Not with black Mayor Nutter and the powerful unions that control the virtually everything there pulling for Clinton. (remember the preloaded voting machines in Philly 04?)
This is the place where the blacks really stay on the plantation.
Now, if I'm wrong, I will be pleasantly surprised, but from what I have seen of Philly for over 40 years, that is my opinion.

don't laugh - I vote.
