Democratic Race Far from Over
With the Democratic rivals for their party’s presidential nod airing “some of the most negative attacks of the campaign,” it’s pretty clear Democratic frontrunner Barack Obama and his challenger, former First Lady Hillary Clinton, are far from ready to bury the hatchet and end this campaign. Unless Obama delivers a knockout blow and defeats his Empire State colleague in the Keystone State, expect this race to continue.
While the junior Senator from New York needs to win big tomorrow to alter the dynamics of this race which currently favors his Illinois colleague, the current contest is far from over. I think it’s absurd when some commentators, partisans of her rival as well as many in the media, suggest she get out of the race because she can’t win. It’s not likely, but it is possible
Obama may be the media’s man (as John Fund puts it), but it’s Democratic voters who get to pick their party’s nominee (Via Instapundit).
In addition to tomorrow’s primary in Pennsylvania, at least two contests remain with demographics similar to those in other states she won, Kentucky and West Virginia as well as one commonwealth Puerto Rico. Not to mention Indiana, where current polls give her a slight lead (though other surveys have showed him ahead).

I disagree -”While the junior Senator from New York needs to win big tomorrow ..” I thin a win by Hill will get the job done. Obama has been put forth by most of the MSM as unbeatable. Any kind of Hill win will poke a big hole in the MSM myth; no matter how they and Barry spin it!

A win keeps her in the game. A big win (say 10 points or more) has the potential to shift its dynamics.

What’s really amusing/pathetic is the liberal’s and AFL/CIO’s obvious disdain for working Seasoned Citizens. That seems to be the only angle, so far, for attacking McCain.
Perhaps if the liberals had allowed Bush’s partial Socialist Stupidity reform, McCain could retire and wouldn’t have to keep working. ;-P

[...] I was right on Monday when I blogged that the Democratic race is far from over. Winning by ten points, Hillary did five points better than she needed to do to justify remaining [...]
