CLINTON INTERNALS SHOW 11-POINT LEAD IN PA **Exclusive** Controlled excitement is building inside of Clinton's inner circle as closely guarded internal polling shows the former first lady with an 11-point lead in Pennsylvania! Clinton is polling near to nearly 2 to 1 over Obama in many regions of the state, a top insider explained to the DRUDGE REPORT. A strong coalition of middle-class and religious voters has all but secured a Clinton victory Tuesday, with headline-making margins, the campaign believes. "It's not a matter of if, it's a matter of how much," a senior campaign source said Monday morning. With less than 24 hours to go until the beginning of the end of primary season voting, Obama has handedly captured Philadelphia and Pittsburgh, but has failed to dominate suburban sprawl, the campaign's polling reveals. Without superdelegate intervention, Clinton still faces impossible math to nomination. Developing...
Poster Comment: This would be big.

When pressed if the dramatic internal polling numbers could somehow be flawed in a state as demographically complex as Pennsylvania, and with new voter registration surging to unseen levels, the campaign insider held firm.
"Senator Obama would be wise not to unpack his bags quite yet."

An 11-point victory in Pennsylvania for Clinton would expand on margins scored in Ohio.
Clinton will quickly move to feverishly focus on Indiana starting Tuesday night, hoping to somehow convince superdelegates that she not only has superior stamina but has crucial swing state appeal.

Drudge is spinning it as though the sort of Clinton victory that was expected in PA a couple of weeks ago would be great for Hillary. Once more, as with Limbaugh, Hannity, and the press organs of Murdoch, Scaife, and the Rev. Moon, the right wing spins hard for Hillary.
If Hillary were black and Obama white, the O'philes here would be wearing Clinton buttons and spinning the 90s. For the guilters, it's about race and absolving imagined injustice.
I know you don't believe us when we tell you you're wrong. I guess people whose thinking is all based on race find it impossible to imagine that that's not true of everybody.
I guess you grabbed the short straw. You now speak for "us."? Many of you "us" can't see what "we're" saying b/c they're offended by "us."
I used the plural because your posting was about a plural.
Geraldine Ferraro: “If Obama was a white man, he would not be in this position" Do you agree with her? If no, why?
I have come to the conclusion that it is the white half of Obummer that is slickering the white guilters. Guilt laden people are easy marks as they grovel without being told.
From: Journal of Multicultural Counseling and Development Date: October 1, 2001 Author: Arminio, Jan Guilt as it relates specifically to racism has been explored in educational, psychological, and counseling literature (Helms, 1993; Howard, 1993; Seldon, 1993; Tatum, 1994). These authors noted that race-related guilt is a prevalent emotion for White people. In her extensive work on racial identity development, Helms (1993, 1995) described the emotion of guilt as an aspect of the process by which Whites come to abandon racist attitudes and behaviors. According to Helms, White people begin to recognize the moral dilemma of being White. They appreciate and enjoy its privileges, but realize those privileges are not extended to all people, and in particular are denied (overtly and covertly) to those who are not White. Howard noted that guilt comes as a result of cognitive dissonance, "conflicting realities that do not fit together easily in our conscious awareness" (p. 38). Tatum (1994) noted that the failure of our educational systems to highlight White role models who work to eliminate racism adds to the general negative feelings and specifically guilt feelings many White people feel in regard to their race.
Cognitive dissonance is a psychological state that describes the uncomfortable feeling when a person begins to understand that something the person believes to be true is, in fact, not true. Similar to ambivalence, the term cognitive dissonance describes conflicting thoughts or beliefs (cognitions) that occur at the same time, or when engaged in behaviors that conflict with one's beliefs. In academic literature, the term refers to attempts to reduce the discomfort of conflicting thoughts, by performing actions that are opposite to one's beliefs.
When the truth is found to be lies, and all the joy within you dies.
When the music's over, turn out the lights.
Yonder stands your orphan with his gun.
