Obama takes the lead in Pennsylvania

Barack Obama 45
Hillary Clinton 43

Barack Obama has taken the lead in Pennsylvania, a remarkable turnaround after trailing Hillary Clinton by 26 points in a PPP poll in the state just two and a half weeks ago.

Obama's steep rise could be a reflection of a growing sense among Democratic voters that a continued divisive nomination process will hurt the party's chances of defeating John McCain this fall. An Obama upset in Pennsylvania would be virtually certain to force Clinton out of the race.

Obama has his customary large advantage with black voters (75-17) and is keeping it relatively competitive with white voters (49-38)

He leads across all age groups except senior citizens and balances Clinton's 10 point lead with women with his own 15 point lead with men.

Full results here.

  1. I had a feeling this was going to happen in PA, sooner rather than later. I love HRC but she's not going to get the nomination, and it's time to rally around Obama so he can start whaling on Bush 2. Full disclosure: I voted for HRC here in Los Angeles.

  2. My faith in the intelligence of the Pennsylvania voter is restored.

  3. I also had a feeling this was going to happen, since polls in competitive states (i.e., New Hampshire, Ohio and Texas) seem to always show Obama winning before the election. Of course, these polls are usually wrong. When Clinton has a big lead in a state a few weeks before an election, she usually wins, and it's weird that the polls almost always suggest otherwise right before the election.

  6. Tihs happens in every state. Clinton is leading by about 25 points, then the state pays attention to the election, a week before the election Obama and Hillary are within 5 points of each other (Obama is usually winning), THEN 3 days before the state votes something crazy happens (The Clinton NAFTA lie, Hillary cries, whatever) that makes Obama look bad and the vote moves towards Hillary in the final 3 days. Right now Hillary is planning her final 3 days before Pennsylvania votes.

  7. Baloney! The PPP poll is bogus. All the other REAL poll have Hilllary way ahead. This just another attempt by the Democratic establishment & the media to dictate to the voters.

  8. HRC is not a monster. She is Dracula. Anyone who thinks that she will give up is in for a surprise. The only way to stop her is with a stake through her heart or Obama reaching the magic number of delegates. Otherwise she a like the horror pictures of old. Never dieing and always rising from the dead.

  9. Why was the Texas poll wrong? Obama won that state in terms of delegates.

  10. Anonymous, you may be right. This could just be a setup to stage another "comeback kid" scenario for Clinton.

    ReplyDelete
  11. No, no, no. This is exactly what happened in Ohio. Obama starts out trailing by a huge amount, mounts a comeback, which gets everyone all excited, and then falls back, losing substantially. In the end, a good performance is dubbed a huge loss. Chances are very slim Obama won't win Pa. The key is to keep this in mind.

  14. yea rallying around you're liberal party who's pastor thinks you're the kkk of america and that you created the aids virus. Please whoever you are, think about whom you're voting for before you talk. This guy was a senator for 2 years, that's it. He has no experience and drives on the saying "change". I think it's clear every candidate wants change but you vote for the black guy who gets supported by rascists black panthers that want revenge on whites. How do you vote for a guy like this over a veteran like McCain. Show's you just have no knowledge and no respect.

  18. I must admit that I am surprised that any poll has Obama leading. I do expect him to keep it close, but Clinton has the advantage that she has had in most big states - most of the big name politicians are in her corner. It would be difficult to see a scenario, in which, he won Pa over her.

    ReplyDelete
  19. This is great news. Once Obama has more then half the projected and pledged delegates (about 1600) he can declare victory.

    ReplyDelete
  20. the Texas polls were not wrong! Clinton won the vote. It was Obama's cry babies and bullies that fixed the caucus.

    To bad for Obama that there is no national caucus. But then his cry baby supporters will liley riot after he loses by a landslide.

  22. Hillary, Obama, McCain, does it really matter? Unfortunately it took segregationist Governor Wallace to reveal the truth that "there's not a dime's worth of difference between" Republicans and Democrats. The Democrats willingly went along with the War in Iraq, suspension of Habeas Corpus, detaining protesters, banning books like America Deceived (book) from Amazon, stealing private lands (Kelo decision), warrant-less wiretapping and refusing to investigate 9/11 properly. They are both guilty of treason.
    Write in Dr. Ron Paul and save this great nation.

  23. Don't be fooled! Just like New Hampshire, Texas, and Ohio, this is another opportunity for HRC to be the "comeback kid." In those states, she had a huge advantage, and was never really in danger. But somebody...MSM?...started talking about how the races might become competitive. All the time knowing full well that she would win, but that spinning the win as a comeback would enhance her political viability. You Obama folks -- do not relax!

  24. I live in Pennsylvania and I support Obama. But, it just seems that as soon as the advertisements started running on TV, the polls reflected the shift. The power of TV is undeniable but I would wish that the electorate were more sophisticated or that TV were less persuasive. Alas, welcome to American politics.

  29. Honestly I do not understand how anyone could actually vote for Hillary. She is just such a repulsive person. The list is so long but just look at the recent Bosian flap—seriously how can you vote for a person that is a pathological liar. It's Disgusting....

    To me it's surprising she is actually still in this.

    Go Obama!

  30. Obama has more experience as an elected official than Hillary Clinton. He was a state senator for 8 years and by November, will have been a U.S. senator for 4 years. Couple that with his work as a community organizer and activist and you do have what it takes along with his good judgement, integrity, the respect he shows to the voter and to his political opponents, the work he's done in the U.S. senate, etc. Lee Hamilton will endorse him today, “I read his national security and foreign policy speeches," Hamilton told Bloomberg News today, "and he comes across to me as pragmatic, visionary and tough.:http://latimesblogs.latimes.com/washington/2008/04/barack-obama-ge.html

    Barack is running for president, not his pastor, shows just how desperate the opposition is to fiind something... anything to tar him with but the voters are smarter than that. McCain has Hagee and Parsley and Clinton has Manning's weird praise. The fact that all three candidates have pastor problems but only Barack is being attacked, says a a lot about the bias in the media and the desperation of his opponents.

  31. This is just in. Hot off the presses! Four NW Philly Obama supporters were asked who they will be voting for in the PA primary. They were 100% in favor of Obama.

    Memo to HRC- The brothahs and sistahs have spoken and you ain't one of them.

    Vote Obama to alleviate those nagging white liberal guilt feelings.

  32. What is it about right-wing commenters that makes them such incompetent spellers? "Dieing"? "Comming"? I suppose this is the result of No Child Left Behind or something...though in my opinion, these particular children should have been left behind so that they might have learned some basic spelling...

    No wonder you all post as "Anonymous." I wouldn't want my name associated with such basic ignorance of the English language either!

    Obama will win by a narrow margin in PA, and then it's curtains for HRC...and once Obama is in office, all you ignoramuses are going to find yourselves on the wrong side of history.

  33. Anon...Hillary at zero hour cried, 'Shame on you Barack Obama' and smearred him while they campaigned in OHIO saying it was his campaign that did the 'wink, wink' with Canada and NAFTA. This led to Obama losing voters. When the dust settled, it was learned in fact that it was the Clinton campaign that did the wink, wink with Canada. She dupped Ohio out of votes which was the only way she won Ohio by such a large number. I would expect another foul cry from the Clinton campaign days before PA votes

  34. How can any HRC fan complain that Obama won by the caucus in Texas when they plan on HRC taking the nomination by a caucus of super delegates. That makes no sense. But that seems to be the democrat way. Complain about something unless it works for you. The electoral college doesnt work until you lose the popular vote and then you thihnk it works. Right HRC?

    ReplyDelete
  35. I live in Ohio. I voted for Obama.

    I think the polling here was pretty accurate.

    Clinton had a 20 point lead that narrowed to single digits in the week before the primary (March 4).

    The support of our governor helped a lot, especially in the southeastern part of our state where some counties voted for her by 3-1, 4-1 margins.

    If anything, I'm a little suspicious of this poll.

    Yesterday, Rasmussen reported a five point lead for Clinton.

    Think Gallup still has her in double digits.

    If the primary were held today, I think Clinton would win by a margin in the high single digits.

    Her problem has been that the longer she's been engaged with Obama in a state, the worse her numbers become.

    That trend could be accelerated in Pennsylvania where she's being outspent heavily.

  36. It is ashame Bill Clinton had to have sexual relationships with women who are not his wife. I think that rubs off on Hillary reducing her poll standing. Plus his poor daughter is out there fielding these affair questions. Thanks a lot, dad!

  41. Methodological problems:
    1) Tremendously irresponsible of a polling firm not to report the margin of error prominently when reporting poll results. The margin of error on this poll is 2.8 percentage points. You have no right to reject the null hypothesis that the candidates are tied. (And that would probably be a better way to present these results.)

    2) If you add up the Clinton/Obama/Undecided vote, it adds up to 101 percent. So, are Obama and Clinton actually closer than 2 percentage points if you carried the poll results out to one decimal point? Why not do this?

    These are the sorts of things that really undermine polling firm credibility.

  42. Having never been a Clinton fan( pathological liars Slick Willy or his wife), I truly cannot understand the admiration some foolish idiots have for Hillary Clinton. Especially the women and senior citizens. Perhaps I can understand women wanting to have a woman as their President but not an evil and lying woman who can do permanent damage to their reputatation and will be a total disaster. So far as seniors go, unless they are Jim Crowe fans, dont know what Hillary has ever done for them

  48. Anyone notice that the worst thing about Barak are other people (pastors, etc), but the best things about him are from him?

    With Clinton, the best things about her are other people, (Her husband's presidency, the clinton political machine) and the worst thigns are her (Bosnia, whining about fair treatment, etc)?

    Or is it just me?

    Also, I'm addending a clause to Godwin's Law (look it up): anyone who uses Barak's middle name in the debate automatically looses it.

  50. Coming from PA, I really cannot see the state going for Obama, either now or in November. Hillary is very popular in Northeastern PA (where here Dad is from and is buried) and McCain will be popular in the state as well. Remember that PA has the second oldest population after Florida, and senior citizens always vote.

  51. I am so tired now of the "Hillary and Bill" show and the Billary and Hill" show and the "Hillbilly" show.I have had it with these two.
    I just cannot trust either one of them anymore so I today I am going with Obama. He does have Senate experience, he is a gentleman and I have seen him be most polite and gracious with Hillary which says a lot for his character. I will certainly give him a chance but I

There he can mandate large tithes to redistribute to his favorite pastor to go buy another expensive house in a gated white neighborhood. Because people like Obama and Wright deserve to decide where the money goes, not the stupid sheep in their flock.

  60. Clinton and Obama supporters need to STOP the blog wars--it's both shameful and embarrassing.

    We're entitled to support our candidate and work to get them nominated, but all of this tension and in some cases, outright hate, is seriously disconcerting.

Easy to Google and find out for yourself. Computers are an amazing thing. The world will never be the same.

  65. Obama is the only candidate deserving of the presidency at this point. Hillary can't keep her story straight, not to mention Bill's a nutcase anymore. And McCain's only going to perpetuate the war even more and doesn't seem too afraid to pull the trigger.

    I'm not completely anti-Republican, but McCain is slightly less undeserving of my vote than Bush was, based solely on the fact he can actually speak to a crowd without looking like an ass.

    For all the republicans that post here, I ask, How can you vote for a man who feels it's appropriate to say that he "will always hate the gooks" because of past experiences?

    Talk about a great mentality for our president to have. We're going from one with a lower IQ than salt to one who's a stubborn, grudge-holding racist? I'll move to Canada.

  74. I grew up in rural Western PA. Still have relatives there and go back regularly. I hate to say it but I believe James Carville's description of PA as Pittsburgh and Philly surrounded by Alabama.

    It's hard to see it when you're growing up there. I really had to leave to fully understand it.

    I love PA and the people who live there. They have so much to recommend them--hard working, earnest, etc...

    But they have their imperfections--we all do. Except the undercurrents of racism (mostly born from ignorance as opposed to in-bred hatred) that I have heard time and again from rural Pennsylvanians (my own parents, I'm sad to say) will keep Obama from winning and help Clinton in PA.

    That said, the polls are closing-he's winning in one, 5 pts in another, and 9 points in a third. That's a good sign, if you just take the average of those polls. But as others have stated we saw similar movement in OH & TX and Obama couldn't eake out a win in either primary.

    Here's where expectations come in. In both OH & TX, Obama was hoping for a knock out blow as he was on a 10 state roll. No one is expecting him to win or even be close in PA. If he can keep expectations low and use PA to call himself the COMEBACK KID or Apollo Creed or whatever and not let Hillary rhetorically turn this into something more than it is--then hopefully a small win for Hillary can look like a loss for her.

    Rev. Wright told the truth !!

    The problems is white folks do not like to hear what their parents and grandparents did in the 30, 40, 50 and 60's. They discrimmated against an entire race - because they beleive they were better than others. We had to enact laws to stop "white folks" from treating other people bad. White folks hung people becuase they were different.

    What did the Rev Wright say that was not true.

    Get real White Folks - we are not as evil and deceitful as you.

Some of the people I've know for years who are those die hard Republican voters, will cast their vote for Obama. Doesn't mean Obama will win PA. The old Democrat machine never died here in Pa. It's fading away slowly, not fast enough to be in the 21st century.

  102. It's part of the Clinton Spin. . .this way she can portray herself as the comeback gal. She gets a huge lead, losses it and wins on a narrow margin. Then says she is making a comeback, while Obama is actually gaining ground and momentum. Yet, she will claim victory in PA when she wins the state 51-49, when all along she should have won it 65-35.

  104. Interesting poll, but methinks it's clear that while Obama has gained considerable ground, Clinton is still ahead by at *least* 10 pts. when all polls are considered.

    Hillary fans, I'm an Obama fan. I don't get to talk to many of you, so a big shout out to all of you.

    I see a lot of nastiness here. While I will not deny that it does exist between some C and O supporters right now, I hope that ALL of my fellow democrats will realize how easy it is for our REAL opponents to pretend to be either Clinton or Obama supporters on all of these blogs--for no other reason but to try to divide us further.

    Don't always assume you're being attacked by a Hillary fan if You're for Obama or an Obama fan if you're for Hillary.

    I NEVER assume anything. Not on blogs like this and not on campaign site blogs.

    We can't forget that there are many hateful, spiteful bigoted Repubs out there that mean us ALL harm. So please, be decent in your own posts and be weary of what kind of attacks you hear.

  105. I would suggest a warning to those who feel so confident in McCain's ability to trounce someone in a debate or in the public eye.

    Take a good look at him and how he projects what he says. I respect all he has done and that he is a man of conviction (to some degree) but the man is past his prime. Its like watching Babe Ruth right before he dies giving a speech at Yankee Stadium. If you feel he will destroy Obama in a debate, think again. He better rely on scaring the crap out of America because he is not a good speaker at all.

    My family roots are from Ireland and Scotland. I have ancestors who were enslaved in Europe for centuries and later subjected to discrimination when they immigrated to America in the 1900's.

    Also, slavery has existed throughout the world for centuries. It still exists. Black Americans have no legitimate world claim that they were the only people subjected to discrimination and slavery in the past.

    Comparing what Lincoln did and what Bush did are apples and oranges. Enemy combatants are people that were actively engaged in combat against us. That's like saying POWs have U.S. legal protections. I'm sure a lot of German POWs in WWII would have loved to have been released under habeas corpus. Lincoln actually suspended it for all U.S. citizens. That was how he stifled protests against the Civil War. Last I checked, no protesters against the war have been held.

    WHY ON EARTH would ANYONE vote for the Democrats' GROSSLY HIGHER TAXES, PLUS The NIGHTMARES of SOCIALIZED MEDICINE, UNION CORRUPTION, ISOLATIONIST FOREIGN POLICY, and PRECIPITOUS ABANDONMENT OF IRAQ?????"

    Perhaps it is because the 3 trillion dollar debt from Bush's failed wars that have killed hundreds of thousands of innocent people and forced 4 million into refugees camps in Syria and Jordan, while bush say, no, our victimes can't come HERE?

    Perhaps because after decades of mostly right-wing rule, our economy has been destroyed by those billionaire CEO's that we are told deserve it for taking RISK?

    So they greedily took on FAR TOO MUCH RISK so why could buy more 500 foot yachts while smashing the middle class?

    Thanks to Repubs, the "family values" party millions of Americans have lost their homes, and many are now living on the streets.

    While saying they are the PROLIFE party they celebrate the slaughter of innocent Iraqis, no doubt many of whom were Pregnant. Not that you care about women, but how can PROLIFERS support a war that has killed unknown numbers of "preborn babies"?

    The repubs contradict themselves: Americans MUST have guns so we can rise up against the government if neccessary but Iraqis are called terrorrists and extremists when Sadr stands up to the US and tells them to get out of HIS country!

    I think it will be much closer than the double digit blowout the Clintons have been predicting. An upset would be a welcome gift for the entire nation so we can move on to the general election.

    I then hope that the voters of NY will turn out in droves when Hillary is up for re-election to vote her out of office. Neither she or Bill deserve to have any place in public life any longer. They are divisive, deceitful, and have made me embarrassed they represent my country.

John McCain would be a better President(and a less divisive one) than Sen. Obama. Many people are tired of all this partisan bickering and would like someone to do something about this nations ills in a bi-partisan manner. McCain has co=-authored major pieces of Legislation with liberal Democrats like Ted Kennedy, Joe Lieberman, Dianne Fienstein and Russ Feingold(i know 3 of them are Jews- I don't think it matters).President Bush is not running for re-election and this election is not about him. It is about our future.

Hillary's only chance is to manufacture another "smoking gun" against Obama - except, his time, I suspect Obama's people are ready and have some ammunition of their own.

He would be the worst thing to happen to this country in the history of the Presidency. He has 2 years of "experience" - please. I have more experience than he does, and I am in sales. He says what everyone wants to hear - "Change". Really? He wants CHANGE??? What a novel idea. Most of America wants change, however we want it accomplished in the right way. He is as incomplete as they come, and his wife is just as pathetic as he is. "For the first time in my life, I am proud to be an American". How nice. Your husband runs for the Presidency, and now you say this. How bad does that sound? If you were not proud in the past, then why would you still be here?

    Too bad that "commenters" is not a word in English. Maybe you should read your own writing before criticizing others.

  180. HRC is the devil in a pant suit and her lead in PA is drying up like the 60 year old hag she is.

  182. Let's face it. hillary can't even run a campaign in the black, let alone the country. If she got elected this country would suffer through its worst presidency in history. Both her, and her no good lying, cheating, pimp of a husband are BAD for America, and it looks like Chelsea is following suit.

  184. We must all remember, if any of the Clinton's lips are moving ... they are lying. They have no personal integrity. The only group that HRC can unite is the republican party. Every year us democrats snatch defeat from the jaws of victory. If the Clinton's will not go away, its time for us to send them packing.

  185. anyonymous...what country have you been living in? we have a racist for President now!!!!
    I don't mean skin color, i mean financially. He's only about the rich getting richer no matter the results on the middle class who keep this country going. I don't where you've been for the past couple of years, but gas prices are above $3.00 in the UNITED STATES or should I say " this yet to be United States".

  186. He is one of those parents and grandparents I been telling you about... on her way to one of grat americans house...

    A white woman, about 50 years old, was seated next to a black man.
    Very disturbed by this, she called the air hostess. 'You obviously do
    not see it then?' she asked. 'You placed me next to a black man. I did not
    agree to sit next to someone from such a repugnant group. Give me an alternative
    seat.'

    'Be calm please,' the hostess replied. 'Almost all the places on
    this flight are taken. I will go to see if another place is available.'

    The hostess went away & then came back a few minutes later.
    'Madam, just as I thought, there are no other available seats in Economy Class. I
    spoke to the captain & he informed me that there is also no seat in Business
    Class. All the same, we still have one place in First Class.'

    Before the woman could say anything, the hostess continued.
    'It is unusual for our company to permit someone from Economy Class to sit in
    First Class. However, given the circumstances, the captain feels that it would
    be scandalous to make someone sit next to someone so disgusting.'

    Then the hostess turned to the black guy & said, 'Therefore, Sir,
    if you would like to, please collect your hand luggage, a seat awaits you in First Class. 'At that moment, the other passengers, who'd been shocked by what they had just witnessed, stood up & applauded.

  188. Sounds like a "Get Out And Vote For Hillary!" story to me.

  189. To all PA woman!

    You have a powerfull chance right now, and are in complete control to elect a 1st woman president!

    Why would you hesitate for even one second?

    We woman have been 2nd inline to almost everything business related for like ever!

    This is the time to stand up and shout for joy that one of our own has made it this far and is still fighting the good fight to not only make history but to finally put to rest the notion that woman don't belong in a male dominated business world.

    Hillary is the one!, the time is right now and she is the one for the job.

    She really wants this bad, she will work hard for us because of this.

    Don't blow this historic opportunity. Don't listen to everything you hear in the media, and mostly the polls.

    Have faith and vote for Hillary.

    There won't be another chance if she loses, not for a long time if ever.

    MAKE IT HAPPEN!
    Hillary 08'

  192. Here come the negative campaigning and t.v. ads in PA from the Clinton camp to reverse this trend in the polls.

    Just like her post-Bosnia trip screw-up comments on Rev. Wright, they will almost certainly have to go on the attack and go negative even more.

    Hillary should still win PA., but if Obama can keep her margin of victory to 9 pts or less then Hillary does not really gain that much in delegates.

  194. This campaign is exposing the deep racial divide among Democrats.

    Lincoln outlawed slavery while southern democrats re-invented it.

    Roosevelt and Truman maintained segregation in the US Military, Eisenhower stopped it.

    Strom Thurmon quit the KKK and joined the NAACP when he changed from Democrat to Republican.

    President Lyndon Johnson used the "N" word until his death and stated frequently that he was using the "war on poverty" to buy "N***ER" votes and keep "them" in the ghetto.

    Robert Byrd is still in the Senate and he SAYS he quit the KKK but it doesn't look like it.

    Judge Thomas, Colin Powell, and condoleeza Rice are three examples of persons at the fore of their fields NOT because of their political utility to a party, but because of their personal strength and the racial fairness and dignity of the politics they affiliated with.

  195. Yabbit: what exactly did Rev Wright say that makes you think he is racist? I have seen the clips. Controversial, yes, but racist? I must have missed something, so please let us know.

    Also, let's be reasonable here. Do you think Obama, who is half Caucasian and half African, is racist? Do you really think Obama is so stupid that he can't filter out the infrequent over the top statements of his pastor.

    I'm glad to see PA (I'm from Upper Dublin) is realizing Hillary is hurting the party with the Tonya Harding strategy she is employing againnst Obama. If Obama loses by 10 or fewer, that's a win politically.

  196. Next they will be telling us Obama has any prospect of being elected president.

    Either Pennsylvanians are really very stupid or a great deception is being pupetrated upon America.
