Obama isn’t behind McCain by a LOT there, but he IS behind- and he’s WAY behind in Florida. I believe that Obama will win the nomination and the White House- but Ohio and Pennsylvania seem to represent Clinton’s best arguments.</p> I’m not too worried about Wisconsin either- it’s OHIO that will be critical…As goes Ohio goes the White House- or so it looks to me.
