Griswold -> Pennsylvania (sp?) (4/22/2008 6:09:53 PM)
Just wondering how you Pennsylvanian's voted tonight? I'm on the left coast, so I didn't get a vote today, but as a guy...AND a Republican....if I'd had a chance to vote...I'd have voted for Hillary (and if she's up for the election....I'll probably vote for her as well).

CNN has announced that Clinton took the state

She won big.... Looks like all those 160,000 Republicans that switched over made a difference. They are going to try to keep this thing going....

Well, everyone was making money when the Clinton's were in the White House. And I like her healthcare plan. I just don't think Obama is electable.

cyberdude611 -> RE: Pennsylvania (sp?) (4/22/2008 10:34:55 PM)
I dont care what people said...if you look at the raw numbers....Obama was just thrashed in the rural areas. And these were the areas that his "bitter" comment would affect. These areas have a lot of Regan Democrats. They own guns. They are catholic. And if Obama cannot win over those people....they may go to McCain. And that would spell total disaster in November for the Democrats. They CAN NOT lose Pennsylvania. So you have to wonder if this guy has some serious problems. The ONLY place he did good in Pennsylvania was Philadelphia which is loaded with minorities. And the exit poll shows he got 90% of the minority vote. And Hillary got a majority of whites. So the racial split is still alive and well in the Democratic primary. No one wants to admit it...but the polls show the split exists.

i didnt vote tonight because i am republican in the final i realy dont know who i will vote for. it will come down to the lesser of two evils. oboma is out of the question for me he took a big smash on everything i stand for, dont realy like clinton on a few issues and i just dont know if i can trust mccain to be consistant.

mhawk -> RE: Pennsylvania (sp?) (4/23/2008 5:17:02 AM)
well i have to admit,yes i was too late to vote in yesterdays primary but i did get registered so i can vote in the general election. i've always been a democrat,i think most of it was how i was raised. but all in all i was glad to see the Clinton got PA.i was surprised to see the county i live in went with Obama but it happens. so all in all in the end i still plan to vote for who i feel would be best.

PA has a HUGE elderly population. Only florida has more. I worked the phone bank per the PA election. The comments ranged all over the spectrum. The good news is- as of today; hillary is "from" Indiana. glunk.

The electorate shouldn't have a say in who the candidate for the election should be: it should be up to the party to choose its candidate. It's bordering on insane that voters that are going to vote Republican in November have a say in who the Democrat candidate should be.

What.

I think it's crazy: it's like opening the goal to the opposite team at a football match! It's asking for it. It's completely weird, to me.

c-span reported that the rules change next cycle. all the hype on mainstream tv; c-span has better coverage. less fluff,less intrusive emblems on screne

quote: It's bordering on insane that voters that are going to vote Republican in November have a say in who the Democrat candidate should be. Until Pennsylvania changes its primaries we will be stuck with this. Also, I voted in the primary although I am seriously leaning toward voting for a candidate in Nov who is not within the 2 party system.

pahunkboy -> RE: Pennsylvania (sp?) (4/23/2008 7:02:45 AM)
Just think- we will likely lose 1 or 2 more reps after the next census.

KatyLied -> RE: Pennsylvania (sp?) (4/23/2008 7:41:12 AM)
I will admit that I don't feel highly invested in the process. I voted in the primary more to vote against someone than to vote for the other.

A part of me hopes that McCain wins this election so that he establishes a buffer zone between Georgie Porgy and the 2012 election. It would make sense that a Republican should inherit the mess left behind by another Republican. If a Democrat wins 2008, she or he will be blamed for the fuckup as if Dubbya was never there, it's pretty much guaranteed, what with the vociferous and bad faith attitude of Republican commentators. Go ahead, let it all hang out, be fast, be furious, be crazy. Vote McCain [8\|] .

Rush Limbaugh calls it "Operation Chaos." He's intentionally trying to screw up the Democrat primary because he's convinced Democrats screwed up the GOP primary. Apparently there was an internet campaign among some left-wing blog sites that were sending emails out and you tube videos to Democrats in Michigan and South Carolina telling them to go out and vote for McCain. Ohio looked at possibly try to file charges against Rush but prosecutors and state officials couldn't find any law he broke. Telling people on the radio who they should vote for is not a crime. If it is true that Democrats in Michigan and South Carolina did in fact vote for McCain.....they are idiots. They just helped the GOP nominate possibly the most electable candidate of either party. Huckabee, Rudy, or Romney would have been REAL EASY for either Democrat to beat. But McCain....he's going to be tough.
