"Political twilight zone"
Political analysts and junkies alike know how the numbers look as Hillary and Barack duke it out today in Pennsylvania. A summary by Newsday's Glenn Thrush:
Delegates
Obama: 1,450
Clinton: 1,251
Popular vote
Obama: 13,689,293
Clinton: 12,861,985
Cash on hand for the primary
Obama: $42 million
Clinton: $93. million
Debt
Obama: $663,000
Clinton: $10.3 million
Barack's looking pretty good. But what happens after today's primary depends on the margin by which Hillary will win (as polls show she should). The best quote I've read this morning is from CNN's Bill Schneider:
"If Clinton wins by single digits, we're in a political twilight zone. Nothing changes."
I predict this is will be the case. Cue creepy music as we make our way to the Indiana, North Carolina contests. June and Puerto Rico can't seem to arrive soon enough.
