Republicans in PA. (5.00 / 1) (#5)
by alexei on Wed Apr 02, 2008 at 07:09:39 PM EST
There are Republicans in Pa - many switched to Democrats and I think that is good for Clinton.

There are a few black Republicans, but, so few, that I will go with BTD's none as far as effect on the vote.

I think that the dynamics of the race have changed dramatically and not only due to Wright.  I believe that Clinton successfully got Obama off his big speeches and message.  The momentum is with her and he is in ebb tide.  So, I really don't think the white vote count in earlier states is valid. Plus, the economic news is much worse, which I think favors Clinton.  PA will tell how much the white vote is Clinton's; I think that she has captured it, mainly on her message.

quoted on Politico thinking this was good for them.  It's good for Obama in the primary, GE? Who knows.

Obama camp (none / 0) (#43)

takes a huge page from Rove's campagins and message strategy...if you repeat something often enough and with enough conviction, everyone will assume it is true regardless of evidence to the contrary...

there's no evidence either way that PA Republicans registering for the Dem primary will support one of our candidates over the other (different states are different states, their results and polls don't have worth for any conclusion on PA)...however Obama, and probably Clinton too for that matter, will claim victory of those "cross-overs" before the votes are cast...
