Clinton won in Ohio by winning about three or four to one over Obama in the small towns outside the big four urban areas of Cleveland, Cincinnati, Columbus & Toledo.
Pennsylvania has a giant swath of bergs & towns & villes & burys outside Philly/Pittsburgh where she also might get the last minute undecideds that went for her in Ohio.

Obama's totally impolitic references pandered to the SF elitist deep-pockets, but now the folks know how he really regards them. The Obamanable Showman gets his Wizard-cover blown! ["Don't pay any attention to that man behind the curtain."]

The polls go up and down. A week ago they were 3 points apart and then a few days later it was 11. Most say daily tracking polls are not very accurate. Especially since most of the country has already voted.

elrod,
Yeah, but… He is not going to do well in PA. PA still has a big 10-12% undecided. Most likely, as in neighboring Ohio, this will break big for Clinton.

Since there is no national primary, the PA poll will be very important. If Obama does well in PA, the numbers will swing way up for him. The national trackers have also not meshed with Newsweek.
