Wow. Yet another example of the Clinton being caught unprepared. This time in Pennsylvania. This kind of stuff just completely undermines her whole experience/competence rationale. And it's incredibly embarrassing.
This from Marc Ambinder at
The Atlantic:
Even with a Gov. Ed Rendell-ordered extension, it appears as if Hillary Clinton's Pennsylvania campaign still fell about 10 people short of filing a full delegate slate with the state party.
If every delegate matters, though, then every delegate matters, and Obama has a full slate of supporters waiting to go to the convention for him. Clinton does not.
This is more evidence that the Clinton campaign simply did not envision a delegate hunt until it was much too late.
And
this from Kos:
Rendell changed the rules mid-game to try and help out his candidate, and Clinton's campaign still couldn't pull of the simple task. Maybe she thought those districts didn't matter like 2/3rds of the rest of the country?
Obama's "inexperienced" campaign, however, what with their pretty plagiarized words, didn't seem to have a problem.
Ouch.
