So let's get this straight
Three polls out today (including two from the best pollsters in PA).

Quinnipiac shows things staying even.
SuSa shows Obama +4
And Rasmussen shows Clinton only +4 (from 5 points to 9 points difference).

So basically this whole collective frenzy of piling on is a wash. So CAN WE MOVE THE F*** ON now ?

Barack Obama has an ad attacking Clinton on her lobbyist ties.

We can but the trolls won't. If you want to move on, ignore them.

This is GREAT news for Josh and the boyz at TPM! Thank God there is resource out there where we can find only good news for Obama, and find out every last dastardly deed by Hillary :) I thought Josh was really onto something when he gave us those hints of the Passport files being hacked right around the time of 3 primaries! And, seriously who can read into a subliminal request buried in the last paragraph of a letter by Hillary that Schuster be fired? Glad I'm on YOUR team!

The troll on the comments I can take. They don't bother me. It is the media that can't move on and that PISSES me off. Thank GOD for the Pope

Ah, I see your point. You're right. But there's still a week before people vote in Pa. That's a long time in a campaign.

:)

Ok, trolls - I love your new meme:

Obama OSAMA HUSSEIN X is not just a Muslim Terrorist with a racist Christian minister - no there's more! He's a Marxist, too.

That's how brilliant this meme is.

You just had to get that "at least for now" in at the end, didn't you?

Hmmm. I'm not seeing it.

"In the Keystone State, Clinton is now viewed favorably by 74% of Likely Democratic Primary Voters, Obama by 72%. Those figures are little changed from a week ago."

Thanks for the link.

The "cling to religion/guns" remarks may or may not have a direct impact on the PA primary -- although the "undecided" voters might not be forthcoming about their views at this point. The PA primary is not the issue; its over (thank you Mr. Rendell).

The real issue is whether the "cling to religion/guns" remarks damage Obama as a potential candidate in the GE. I would be interested in a poll that assesses whether the remarks make him a stronger/weaker candidate against John McCain, or whether there is no impact. If there is a negative impact on this front, it strengthens HRC's hand with the SD's or at the Convention. It also might increase the margin of victory in Indiana.

After this bipartisan, planned, coordinated attack, Clinton has to win Pennsylvania by better than 20 points or it's a loss.

That's what the conventional wisdom will be by next Tuesday.

20 points.

If she can't pull that off with the help of her allies: McCain, the entire wingnut screeching chorus, and the media, she's unelectable in the general.

The most interesting part about the poll is that she's actually down two points.

This candidate, Hillary Clinton, needs a huge advantage to stay about even.

Sure Sure.... you know, it's not Hillary's fault that video got made.

Fair enough. Now where's the mashup blooper video of Obama's "bitter" remarks?

So what's with Josh citing this poll among those which show "Clinton halting Obama's advance and taking back some of her lead"?

Earth to "idiotic".... Earth to "idiotic"....

You there?

Hello?

That's okay - I'll get it for you.

THIS IS EXCELLENT NEWS!!!!! FOR OBAMA!!!!

Chumps.

Look, Penn. is and always has been Hillary's state to win. They're old, and white (these are facts, not insults) and Hillary, as we saw in Texas/Ohio, has every intention of slinging mud and a last minute fear ad or two, things that play very well with the demographic in question.

So f-ing what then?

All that matters is that Obama is giving up on it, as Hillary does in a state every time she sniffs defeat. Hillary will win, and win "big." (Nothing like states where Obama has beat her, but better than, say, Texas.)

It doesn't matter! It only matters because there's been six weeks to "make" it matter. It's one state. And Obama is going to be competitive. But to paint it like she's pulling ahead, or halting him, or whatever, is day to day nonsense. She's always been ahead. She will win. We all know this!

And then it will all go on to the next state, where Obama will do a little better and Hillary a little worse and nothing, essentially, will change. Not until the SD's end it at least. In the meantime, this is just political entertainment, which is unfortunate for progressives, that our good message had become mere sport, but otherwise...man, everyone...calm down.
