Click to play videoPittsburgh, Pennsylvania: After a six-week lull in the primary schedule, it's time once again for Senators Hillary Clinton and Barack Obama to deliver closing arguments to voters.
The state of Pennsylvania holds its primary on Wednesday.
Pennsylvania is Hillary-friendly – whiter, older, and more female than the national average with nearly a million union households – all the demographics that have favored her in other states.
A loss in this state would be catastrophic.
“Do everything you can to convince people to go vote who say they're not going to vote, take them to the polls, call your friends and neighbors make the case for the kind of results that we desperately need in America,” Hillary said.
Barack Obama has out-spent Hillary by more than two to one in Pennsylvania which helped close what was once a considerable lead for the New York senator. Still, Obama told a Pennsylvania radio station, he's not going to win:
To a question if he was predicting a win in Pennsylvania, Obama replied, “Well, no, I'm not predicting a win. I'm predicting it's going to be close. And, that we are going to do a lot better than people expect.”
Hillary Clinton’s campaign is having none of it, and has taken to arguing that Obama has spent so much money in Pennsylvania, a loss would bring his electability into question.
On the campaign trail for a last round of rallies and restaurants, both candidates were relatively mellow compared to a rough-and-tumble weekend, with each accusing the other of misleading ads.
Their campaigns did get into it over Hillary’s final ad, which included the image of Osama bin Laden.
Taking exception, an Obama spokesman had said, "We already have a president who plays the politics of fear, and we don't need another."
