This is bad news for Hillary Clinton. NBC's Chuck Todd, who's the best political analysts out there, says that of the 50 percent of Pa. votes not tallied yet, a large number of these are in Philadelphia and especially the suburbs -- most notably Montgomery County, which is an Obama stronghold. If that's the case, Clinton's margin will surely dip below 8-10 percent, where it's at now.

It seems shameful that the suburban counties can't report a single vote more than 2 hours after the polls closed. With electronic voting shouldn't the preliminary numbers be called in within minutes of closing?

FYI>>>>>We still have to tally by HAND...and in some areas the Republicans REFUSED to give us the actual tapes. I had to hand count scribbles on the ballots... I'm in Wyndmoor...Just finished counting the votes here. Obama won by a little over 500 votes. Cheltenham carried Obama by a few THOUSAND..AND JENKINTOWN by a few hundred... I have had a lot of wine and dont remember exact numbers

Dear LeeN: You probably won't want to remember the exact numbers, because its clear your hero lost in PA by the margin I predicted, 55 percent to 45 percent. Your hero has peaked.

Dear LeeN: When you recover from your wine buzz, you probably won't want to know the final numbers because your hero has lost PA by the margin I predicted, 55 percent to 45 percent. Your boy has peaked!

LeeN-Give it up,he lost.You can't blame the Repubs for that.I suggest a couple of bottles of Robert Craig Cab after your boy gets crushed in November.Crushed.
