Hillary Clinton Wins Pennsylvania While Elitist Barack Obama Cries Into Piles Of Delegate-Shaped Money

Salt-of-the-earth -immediately preceding a few dozen tequila shots- Hillary Clinton won the Pennsylvania primaries last night, beating fancy Fleur de Sel Senator Barack Obama by 45%-55%:
Network exit polls said Clinton’s margin of victory was built heavily upon her appeal among white women — which she won by more than 20 percentage points — blue-collar voters and older voters.
“It is union households, a lot of white women, a majority of white men, Catholics, poorer and less-educated voters going for Sen. Clinton, and blacks and urban voters and better-educated voters for Sen. Obama,” said Clay F. Richards, assistant director of the Quinnipiac University Poll, which surveyed extensively in the state. “It is the same breakdown we have seen in Ohio, Texas and New Jersey.”
Two weeks ago, Obama was narrowing the gap, outspending her on television by roughly 2-1.
But while Hillary was attending keggers with the poors, Barack was intoxicated with power and Pinot Grigio sipped from the cupped hands of trembling Pennsylvania yokels:
But his comments about bitter small-town Pennsylvanians who cling to guns and religion in tough economic times gave Clinton fodder to declare him an elitist, and his momentum stalled. Exit polls showed a majority of late deciders going to Clinton.
Obama still leads in delegates and dollars, but Clinton now can make a more compelling case for her momentum versus his math. She has begun arguing that she is both better prepared to take on presumptive Republican nominee Sen. John McCain in November and take over the presidency in January.
Immediately following his speech, Barack Obama put on his magical monocle, tapped his top hat and rode away into the night on the backs of Trent, Todd and Tyler over here.

I hate to piss on you Clintonite’s picnic, but that victory changes nothing. Clinton has an ass whipping coming on May 6. Obama’s lead in delegates, votes and states in insurmountable. He’s ahead of Clinton in the IN polls and way ahead in the NC polls. Obama fairs just as well or better in the match up polls with McCain. Obama also continues to have a higher favorability rating than Clinton. Clinton may score a few touchdowns and get an interception, but Obama will walk away with the trophy.
Well, look at you, political whiz kid! Did you happen to read this post’s title?

Yes, and I also happened to read the half assed reply you gave because you have no argument.

It’s not going to be spoon-fed to you, Butt. Blogging does not earn me enough for luxuries such as utensils.
I so can’t wait till Obama loses and all of you Obamites (rhymes with SODOMITES - FOR A REASON!!!!), CRY.
Don’t hold your breath, Marco. Obama has already beaten Clinton, they’re just going through the motions right now. Obama leads McCain in the general polls. That’s no guerantee, but it’s an advantage. Even if HIllary does manage to convice superdelegates to steal the nomination from Obama, she trails McCain in the general polls. Hillary has no chance whatsoever of becoming president.
