| Is a "Pennsylvania surprise" coming? |
| 2008-04-11 |
| Jim Geraghty, National Review A smart political operative said within earshot of me yesterday that if Hillary has more metaphorical bombshells to drop on Obama — and this operative has heard secondhand that she does — she'll do so between April 16, the date of her next debate with Obama, and April 22, Pennsylvania's primary day. The timing, of course, is so she doesn't get asked about it by the moderator or confronted by Obama. |

| #12 “And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.” Obama |

| #10 And, yet, STILL no one's running with the Obama-Bill Ayers connection. The former head of the "Weather Underground" that bombed the Capitol, Pentagon and NYPD HQ. And, Mr. Ayers himself *supposedly* wrote a NY Slimes hit piece about how he did all those deeds and wished he'd done more, ON 9/11/2001 NO LESS! |

| #9 I don't think Hill needs any more bombshells. I think Wright's anti-white racism blew such a big hole in Obama's boat that no damage control team on earth could stop it from going down. There are still a lot of white Dems and I don't see many of them voting for 'Bama. |

| #8 Well geez Frank... that takes a lot of wind out of my sails. May has a Friday the 16th though. I am exhausted from a long and arduous campaign, and I misspoke... Lets just count all the votes, and see what happens. |

| #6 This is a strange State and a lot can happen. Philadelphia is the place that the fans once booed Santa Claus. Its a place that HREF='http://www.mindfully.org/Reform/MOVE-Phihladelphia-BombNYT14may85.htm'>bombed itself and Philadelphia is where Obama expects to pile up votes |

| #4 I keep waiting for the Team Clinton nuclear option, but that is an awful narrow window to change enough votes to save PA from being just a "little single digit win". April 16th is Friday, and the Pope masses will be the lead story (thats where the reporting resources are being sent anyway). Sat-Sunday are wasted from a news cycle perspective, so that leaves only one day for political tittilation... Unless Obama is Client #10, I think Hillery has reached her last couple of downs, and she isn't even at the 50 yard line. |

| #1 We'll see. So far, everything except the tear has backfired on her. I don't think she has the political savvy to pull it off. |
