Wolfson: Obama Must Win Pennsylvania

Posted by BLAKE DVORAK

Outspending Hillary Clinton 3-to-1 in Pennsylvania, Barack Obama must win there on April 22 to demonstrate his ability to win big states, said top Clinton aide Howard Wolfson today during a conference call with reporters.

"Obama is doing everything he can to win in Pennsylvania, and if he can't, it'll be a serious defeat," said Wolfson. "We all know the road to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue runs through Pennsylvania."

3. You know the reporters just keep him on mute now, during the calls.
Because they cannot contain their laughter.

What a joke Clinton's entire campaign has become.

So about a month and a half ago Obama was behind Clinton by 12 points,
but now if he does not win it will be a serious defeat for him? This is really a joke and I really wonder if they have such a low opinion of peoples' intelligence to believe they would swallow such crap.

Acme Goalpost Movers Inc. has yet to be paid - and Dead Horses 'n Whips Limited is about to take legal action.

8. I agree... Obama must win Pennsylvania...
...so we don't have to listen to Wolfson's piehole anymore.

Don't worry, Mr. Wolfson. Obama WILL win PA.

12. Can Clinton get some good players on her team for once?
Edited on Wed Apr-09-08 04:50 PM by Zachstar
Like Penn's crap people are going to see right through this and it will harm the Clinton campaign overall.

13. I may be mistaken --
correct me if I am,

but didn't everybody know that the road to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue ran through OHIO?

Didn't I hear that somewhere a while ago?

16. Clinton must demonstrate her ability not to have a broke-ass campaign.
God I love all this crying about being "outspent." Yes, that's what happens when you run a GOOD CAMPAIGN instead of the trainwreck on the other side.

I don't think anyone in the media or the public is going to forget that Hillary's "third firewall" PA where she was leading by DOUBLE DIGITS was supposed to be a mortal lock, and now its in a genuine contest. I don't care how much they WANT to generate this spin, it aint sticking with ANYONE.

17. What, Texas wasn't big enough?
In case the MSM didn't report it long enough or loud enough, Obama won in Texas.

his ass and being so negative againt hrc does not win Pa. then I would say hrc should then be given the nomination because it will show that obigot cannot win.
