If this thing isn't decided before then, voters in that state are going to be overwhelmed! There is an almost two month window where the only constest is Pennsylvania! Tuesday, March 11 Mississippi Primary 40 delegates Tuesday, April 22 Pennsylvania Primary 188 delegates Saturday, May 3 Guam Other 9 delegates http://politics.nytimes.com/election-guide/2008/primaries/democraticprimaries/index.html

1. Bring it! We're ready! |
|
In fact, I'm heading off to a meeting on how we're going to organize for Philly in a little over an hour.
Us Philly folks headed over to Southern Jersey the past couple of weeks to help them out and they've vowed to return the favor.
We're ready.

2. They won't be overwhelmed after APR 22. |
|
So that "almost two month window" is kind of misleading, considering that about half of that window occurs after they vote.

3. Good point, but still there is a two month window where they are the only contest. |

5. True. And I guess you're right in that the media analysis will focus |
|
largely on the last contest, that being PA.
The people of PA just won't have to put up with as many commercials and phone calls. :)

6. Pennsylvania, You're in for a wild ride! |
|
If this thing isn't settled by then, and I doubt it will be.
Never mind phone calls, ads, and volunteers knocking on your door. Both candidates will LIVE in your state. They'll be everywhere: Your homes, restaurants, work places, schools, libraries, union halls, places of worship; in other words, anyplace where people gather. There'll be signs, leaflets, ads wrapped around buses--you won't be able to walk out the door without seeing the smiling faces of Obama and Hillary. You'll be courted like a beautiful woman. Candidates will prostrate themselves to you, acknowledging your powers.
Have fun!
