The demographics of Philly are all against Romney and almost an auto Obama win...and Philly has no coal or gas in the game.

Now, if you could turn Philly....

It ain't gonna happen.

I hear you but miracles sometimes do happen.

Republicans have never won Philadelphia since FDR. Even in 1972 when Nixon carried a near 20 point margin, Philadelphia was the only county who voted for McGovern.

If you can pick up the suburban counties like Delaware, Chester, Bucks, and Montgomery, then you can pull of a win like 1988.

Now, if you could turn Philly....

Completely out of the question.
The only way to turn Philly is an EMP blast and a 95% die off rate.

But that isn't the salient factor in Pa.
Montgomery County holds the key to Pa.
Just returned from pre election organizing there and its full of hopeless soccer moms with big dumb perma grins plastered on their respective faces, as if all are on high doses of prozac.

I'm not kidding, though if Montgomery flips R, we will take Pa, so its worth serious, all out effort there.
