Blitz Boy: Hillary must win North Carolina

Real Clear Politics apparently thinks that Wolfson: Obama Must Win Pennsylvania is front-page material.

I've got to hand it to them. They pulled off the classic bait and switch, developing a huge audience with well-organized polls. Now they are the new Drudge, acting as nothing more than a stenograph machine for Clinton campaign surrogates.

Anyway, since Clinton spokesman Howard Wolfson has declared Pennsylvania a must-win for Obama, I thought I would declare North Carolina a must-win for Clinton.

Outspending Hillary Clinton 3-to-1 in Pennsylvania, Barack Obama must win there on April 22 to demonstrate his ability to win big states, said top Clinton aide Howard Wolfson today during a conference call with reporters.

"Not able to keep up with Barack Obama's fundraising, Hillary Clinton must win in North Carolina to demonstrate her ability to drag out the Democratic race," said blitz boy today on Daily Kos.

"[Obama is] doing everything he can to win in Pennsylvania, and if he can't, it'll be a serious defeat," said Wolfson. "We all know the road to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue runs through Pennsylvania."

"Hillary Clinton is doing everything she can to win the Democratic race. Even though she can't, she won't admit defeat," said blitz boy. "We all know the road to 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue runs through 50 states, not just big states."

During the call, Wolfson and T.J. Rooney, Pennsylvania State Democratic Party Chairman, also unveiled the campaign's radio ad responding to the Obama's contention that he doesn't "take money from oil companies."

During the blog, blitz boy was under heavy sniper fire. Even so, he was able to point out that Hillary Clinton takes money from lobbyists. Barack Obama does not.
