TRIBUNE-REVIEW Pa. no longer on the horizon By: Salena Zito

It's showtime, folks ... part II.

Welcome to a smaller yet more critically important Super Tuesday. Today has become the focus for the Democrats in a political season that has seen the primary contest maps redrawn in a way no pundit could have ever predicted.

In an interview last week, Democratic National Committee chair Howard Dean told the Tribune-Review that he never would have predicted that the primary season would have gone on this long. In fact, Dean said he thought it would have been decided before the first Super Tuesday on Feb. 5.

"I initially thought that one of the candidates would run the tables early," Dean said, "or that it was going to be decided shortly after the early states."

Dean said it now looks as though Pennsylvania will be the deciding state.

Misleading title.

I’m betting Dim. I’ve never actually been dead, so it’s just an educated guess, though.

This is a BLOG.

“Editorial” is quite a stretch, don’t you think?

Threads based on blog entries are supposed to be put in “Bloggers & Personal.”

Blogpimping in “News/Current Events” is just an exercise in the most vain self-aggrandizement, wouldn’t you agree?

Unfortunately, the dead may vote a lot more this year since Philly’s murder rate is increasing exponentially.

"I initially thought that one of the candidates would run the tables early," Dean said

"But she blew it."

Salena is a member of the editorial staff of the Tribune-Review. That's a little different than Joe Blow's blog.

It’s probably because like me, poster couldn’t figure out how to post in anything but “News/Activism” thanks to the screw-ups this weekend on FR.

It’s not screwed up if you know how to use it.

On the right:

sorry i offended you. my freerepublic page has not looked the same since this weekend.
i am an editorial columnist for RealClearPolitics, Townhall and the Tribune-Review
i am also a reporter covering the elections from just about every state.
and yes i “blog” but i would argue that my ‘blogs’ are not personal opines, but fact based reporting with interviews to back up what is written
have a groovy primary day

I didn't note the reference, but about a week or so ago, I read here that fast Eddy has promised to "deliver Pennsylvania for Hillary"

I live in SW Pa, and even with my Dhi(u)mmy friends ... I can't read their leanings .. other than ... no one seems to know WHICH way to go.

Which dim though? It's a lot of pressure to put on dead people.
