Could we really be "the deciders"?

Pennsylvania supporters of Sens. Hillary Rodham Clinton and Barack Obama said Wednesday that their near-draw on Super Tuesday heightens the prospect that the state's primary will be crucial in deciding the Democratic presidential nomination.

Philadelphia lawyer Mark Aronchick, a national fundraiser for Clinton, said it is unlikely that either candidate will break away as the clear front-runner before the Pennsylvania primary, but "if it's going to happen, it would be Hillary Clinton."

Aronchick said Clinton's effort would be aided by Gov. Ed Rendell and Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter, who have endorsed Clinton and have strong political organizations.

It will be interesting to see if Rendell's "political machine" means that much in this primary election. I personally hope not - mostly because I can't say I'm impressed with Big Ed's tenure as Governor, and somewhat because I can't say I see that much advantage to the country in providing Rendell with some sort of big political appointment if he ends up helping get Hillary elected as President. I like watching him on the post-game show after Eagles' games. Maybe he should just stick with that.
