Jeralyn has blogged about the 100 PA. Mayors that are endorsing Hillary if anyone is interested in reading about it. 100 PA. Mayors are endorsing her and not a PEEP on any network.

Clinton beats Obama with a voting bloc the Democratic Party needs to win in November.

John Judis and Ruy Texeiera calculate we’ll need 44-48% of these voters to retake the White House. Clinton gets their votes.

And now we hear that Barack is “Bewildered” at the reaction to what he said in San Fran on Billionaire’s Row.

Well, we can’t have Barack being “Bewildered” now can we? So, let’s point out something to Barack so he understands the reason for the reaction to his remarks to a cadre of wealthy donors in San Francisco!

Here goes Barack:

In 2006 Democrats were able to win with sufficient support from the white working class, which makes up 52% of the electorate.

Democrats had gotten only 39 percent of this vote in the 2004 congressional elections; in 2006 Democrats got 44 percent of the vote, which was enough to give them a solid majority in Congress.

Democrats’ success among these voters helped the party to pick up three house seats in Indiana (where the white working class makes up 66 percent of the voting electorate); two seats in Iowa (where it makes up 72 percent); a Senate seat in Montana (which is 68 percent white working-class); and a Senate seat, a House seat, and the governorship in Ohio (which is 62 percent white working-class).

By 2015 the white working class is expected to fall from 52 percent to 47 percent of the U.S. electorate, but it will remain a critically important group nationally and in many elections in the Midwest and South.

Yeah, can you imagine going into a job interview (which is what the election season is) and preaching to the company?

And not asking them to hire you, but ASKING THEM TO BELIEVE.

Does anyone know if these mayors have endorsed or are neutral?

Obama responded to a question from his rich supporters asking him why he wasn’t leading in Pennsylvania. The most telling part of his answer was
the phrase “antipathy to people who aren’t like them.” He always throws in race when he is losing. He couldn’t possibly be losing because he is a horse’s ass. It has to be because of his race. I’s just a typical Obama statement and four years of his sh*t would be too much to take.

Hammond, East Chicago and Portage are suburbs of Chicago. This is a real problem if the Senator of Chicago has lost loyalty in the region he represents..

yes fellow hoosier..he’s got problems in the central state also..apparently baby jesus just stepped in it.

Where is a quote mentioning how what Obama said is true? Or was he merely agreeing that Obama did say it? The source you cite is a bit unclear.

oooo! Here’s another little Casey blurb to put that sanctimonious little twerp into sharp focus:

…it was reported last week that Bob Casey skipped an appointment he had to give a fallen soldier’s medals to his parents. He made up some sort of excuse but it turned out he went to Pittsburgh to do a photo-op with Obama. At this time I am not sure that the medals have been delivered still.

This was taken from a MyDD post containing a new ARG poll that shows Obama positively “tanking” in Pa. He’s pissed a lot of us Pennsylvanians right off.

that is the conventional wisdom and even Clinton supporters are falling for it. But it is only media spin for Obama.
Of course this hurts him in PA and IN and all of the other states.
