Mark Silva posting at the Swamp (Baltimore Sun) this afternoon is asking, ‘How bad is it for Barack Obama in Pennsylvania?”

“‘Just how bad is documented by some key findings from a series of polls, including the Franklin and Marshal College Poll, all released recently,’ writes Terry Madonna, professor of public affairs at F&M and Michael Young, managing partner of Michael Young Strategic Research.

“‘Almost none of the results bode well for Obama,’ they write of the Apr. 22 Democratic primary, from the polling they are looking at. ‘Cross the board Clinton is winning and winning big. She has decisively stopped Obama’s earlier momentum in Pennsylvania—and seems set for a romp.’”

Silva continues:

“Among Democrats in general in Pennsylania, Clinton holds an advantage over Obama ranging from 16 to 26 points, they {Madonna and Young} say in their column, Politically Uncorrected.

“‘She is winning every major region of the state except Philadelphia, while Obama has actually slipped slightly with blacks and more substantially with younger voters — two demographics that are critical backstops for him in the contest. He has also lost support with other key constituencies including white males and evangelicals.’”
