This is complete bunk, yes there is corrpution in Philly, no one would argue, but Philly does not carry the state by itself.
The old T that PA is claimed to have by pundents is really more of a giant L these days, the blue Pittsburgh area has been reddening consistently for the last few decades.
For a weak elitist dem, who does not and will not connect with the blue dog democrats that are the bulk of them in PA, to win the state he would have to come out of SE PA with about a 90% to 10% margin over McCain to win the state, and he won’t be able to do it.
It won’t be a landslide, but McCain will win this state on election day.
Kerry won PA safely.
