Obama just might pull off a Pennsylvania win (voters, Democrats, Republican)

Many Hillary supporters say Hillary will win Pennsylvania due to the fact that there are similar demographics to Ohio. However there is a difference in Pennsylvaina and Ohio that is often overlooked. Unlike Ohio, Pennsylvania has a very large urban city (Philadelphia) and the votes in Philadelphia combined with Pittsburgh could offset other areas of the state where Hillary would win. Time will tell. So far Hillary leads in the polls but there is more than a month til that primary. Remember, Obama was 20 points behind in Texas and a week and a half later he managed to close in to the point to where it was a nail biter victory for Hillary. Obama also closed in a big gap in Ohio. Obama has alot more time to close the gap in Pennsylvania and a win there plus a win in the rich delagate state of North Carolina two weeks later will end all this crap. Obama is leading in North Carolina which is a state that has 134 delagates up for grabs. North Carolina is the last rich delagate state in the primary schedule.

10 points isnt a huge lead. It not a nail biter but its not a HUGE lead. 70% to 40% is a HUGE victory and so far Hillary has not beat Obama by such margins. But I can name plenty of states where Obama has won by such margins. The biggest margin in one state, Obama won 70% to Hillary's 25%.....now thats embarrasing.

Er no....no huge lead in Ohio

I'm pretty convinced that Hillary's recent "wins" are due to Republican cross-over voters eager to keep the Democrats fighting with each other. I know of many people here in Texas that voted for her for that sole reason. This may be why it looked like they were tied in Ohio and Obama was possibly going to pull a win in Texas, and then she ended up getting more votes (however, once again, less caucus delegates = less diehard support).
