Just something that confuses me...
Advertisements [?]
Obama has won 30 contests
Hillary has won 14 contests

Obama has won 164 more pledged delegates than Hillary
Factor in SDs and Obama still leads by 140 delegates

Obama has raised almost a quarter of a billion dollars, compared to a fraction of that for Hillary

* * *

All of this is indisputable fact.

Now according to some posters on this board, if Obama loses PA, which for the record would mean he's won exactly twice as many contests as Hillary, then he is not the strongest candidate for the General Election.

I'm not trying to flame bait here. I'm just asking for anyone to explain this to me. Because I honestly don't get how his losing one state "dooms his chances in the GE."
