I laugh when people say McCain will win PA over Obama. Now polls can be wrong but even after he lost the state he was up by about 6-9 points there. The thing is, in many states, including PA, there are hundreds of thousands of African-Americans who are unregistered to vote. The Obama campaign will likely register these voters through grassroots organization and that will add even more black votes to his column for the state. Also, if you look back to 2004, Kerry even won the state despite being called a flip-flopping liberal and didn’t even have to have many of those votes that Hillary got. He won just on the core base of the democratic party. I suspect Obama will do the same, whether it be by 1, 2, or 8 points.
