Hillary Clinton didn't win by 10% in Pennsylvania. She won by 9.4%, which if you round it to the nearest whole number, is a 9.
The Utah Jazz are playing as well as any team in the league right now. They're the only playoff team to have won the first two games on the road this season. No one talks about them. Maybe it's okay because it means they're flying under the radar. But seriously, if they win at least one road game in every playoff series, it's lights out, because no one's going to win in Radium Stadium.
Since Ohio's primary, the number of white working class workers supporting Obama has risen. He's closed the gap. Why don't people mention this about Pennsylvania's results?
Not only does Barack Obama not wear a U.S. flag lapel pin, but John McCain doesn't wear one either!! For that matter Hillary Clinton doesn't wear one. So what's the big deal? It's a stupid story, and it should've been pointed out at the last debate, that Hillary Clinton wasn't wearing a pin, that the moderators weren't wearing a pin, that most people in the audience weren't wearing a pin. But the craziest thing about this is that four days later, John McCain was on This Week with one of the moderators, George Stephanopoulos, and he wasn't wearing an American flag lapel pin!! Where was the question then, Mr. Stephanopoulos?
John McCain's pastor problem. People say that it's different because Jeremiah Wright was Obama's pastor. But McCain actually sought out Hagee's endorsement because he's trying to court the right-wingers. But Hagee is a hatemonger as much as the Wright statements were hatemongering. Oh, guess where John McCain is today? New Orleans.
But don't worry because Sen. McCain said on This Week with George Stephanopoulos, "I’m glad to have his (Hagee's) endorsement. I condemn remarks that are, in any way, viewed as anti-anything. But thanks for asking." Anti-anything? What does that mean? He's glad to have Hagee's endorsement, but maybe he shouldn't have sought after it? Hindsight is 20/20? Give me a break.
Sorry if I've gone on too long. I'm just frustrated with the media right now. What are they getting at?

The double standard in the media makes me sick.
For weeks they talk about how Clinton needs a double digit win. So she wins by 9 and they now say she should continue on. How much do you want to bet if Obama wins NC by 20+ and Indiana, they still will stay she should stay in?
Amen. Since this will be decided by the superdelegates no matter what (and however frustrating), they need to make their decision now so that the Democratic nominee can start getting McCain for all of these stupid statements he's been making. Iran is helping Al Qaeda? Give me a break Al Qaeda hates Iran. They just barely said so a few day back.
"Bin Laden deputy slams Tehran for purporting Israel behind terror attacks on US, says Shiite rule Iran trying to discredit Sunni group's 'successes'"
Al Qaeda tells Iran to shut up. And however much I'd like them both to shut up, it only proves that Iran and Al Qaeda aren't in it together.
You should see all the Obama frenzy here in Bloomington (really liberal school, lots of kids new in politics that treat the man like a savior of some kind)...it's fun. You'd like it. :-)
Well at least I was wearing a pin.
Maybe you should run for president. If you do, you must first, drop American Heritage from BYU. Second, let me move to Washington DC with you. I'll be your secretary.
Dropping American Heritage (or at least setting up fair guidelines for the class) will be my first priority.
