Actually, Santorum is in a virtual tie with Romney in PA according to a recent poll. On the other hand, Romney trails by 6 points. Pennsylvania (PA) Poll * March 14, 2012 * Favorite Son Santorum Thumps R - Quinnipiac University – Hamden, Connecticut (http://www.quinnipiac.edu/institutes-and-centers/polling-institute/pennsylvania/release-detail?ReleaseID=1718 - broken link)
It's almost a given that Santorum will win his home state in the primary, given that three polls show his win margin between 15-30 points. It's even possible that he can manage a win in the neighboring state of Deleware on April 24.
if it does happen, he should just drop out asap right?
i mean how on earth could he spin that??
really need to see the primary PA polls
sure it is possible. It cetainly looks like Paul is going to not only lose, but get creamed in Texas. I guess anyone can lose their home state, but when that happens it is time to think about the future?
Not sure if that is something many Republicans really care about. Allegheny is not exactly Republican friendly by any stretch of the imagination, so its not surprising he got clocked there. With that being said I do think Romney has a chance of winning the Dem heavy 14th district and getting those delegates, though its hard to say. I could be wrong but I believe redistricting changed some of the more upper midle class suburbs outside of Pitt for some of its working class suburbs.
Republicans are so outnumbered in Pennsylvania that the question is academic at best. The Democrat machines in Philly and Allegheny County will deliver as many votes as Obama needs in the general election. Many of those votes will be cast by actual, living persons.

You might be suprised at how many of those voters are tired of Obama and really want some 'change' this time.

There would need to be a truly monumental change of attitude for that to happen. Look at this map of the 2008 general election:
