HIGH JEWISH TURNOUT HELPED BUILD THAT PENNSYLVANIA WIN: Hillary won the Jewish vote in Pennsylvania by 62% - 38%. According to CNN exit polls, Jews made up 8% of the electorate in Pennsylvania, which is more than triple their proportion in the population.

1. HRC could possibly when in November, but there’s no way she will when the nomination. My guess is that head to head with McCain she will be beaten on everry point that she’s running on.
   So, suddenly Jews can’t do math?
   But don’t worry, Obama is the better candidate anyway and should win - even easier then HRC. Especially since she’s running as a Republican.
   AND if Obama should lose at least Jews can take solice in the fact that they voted for the candidate with Dignity and a Vision. Not someone who feels the only way to win is to play as dirty as the other side.

2. In what universe do you live in where a candiate who supports raising taxes, socilized medicine, surrender in Iraq, and refusal to drill for oil in Alaska is running as a Republican. Hillary is a very liberal Democrat, Obama is a radical Democrat.
   Neither of them will win any state that voted for Pesident Bush in 2004, and Obama will lose purple staes like Pennsylvania.
   This Jew will vote for the only candidate who shows dignity, our next President, John McCain.

3. I think you’re thinking of the McCain from 2000 not the McCain of 2008. This McCain has shown absolutley no diginity or concept of what decade he’s living in. Hopefully most people will disagree with what you think and vote otherwise.

4. For all you HRC supporters read this article: http://www.slate.com/id/2190556/ and then explain to me how she can possibly win the nomination. Not why she should win, but how.
