And so now, we have 7 weeks of Pennsylvania Democratic Presidential Primary campaigning ahead of us. I believe this quote is appropriate:
"There's so much time that the candidates are not going to be just flying back and forth between Pittsburgh and Philadelphia," said David Sweet, a Harrisburg lawyer who was manager of Gov. Rendell's 2002 campaign and is now supporting Obama."It's going to get down to looking at polls to see if the western part of Washington County is in play, what parts of Allentown to visit, or even the upper vs. the lower portion of Dauphin County," Sweet said.
And don't forget about Cumberland County. Sure, there's a lot of red out here, but there's a few liberal bloggers out on the West Shore as well, and maybe, just maybe we could get our act together to have a Drinking Liberally meeting if Obama or Hillary wanted to visit such esteemed individuals.
Just don't send Mark Penn or any other grouchy members of either campaign.
Seriously, I wonder how much business at local diners the upcoming time will provide Pennsylvania. Meet and greet, meet and greet, meet and greet...
