Clinton: 'Tide Is Turning' After Pennsylvania Win
Hillary Clinton declared the “tide is turning” Tuesday after scoring a critical victory by about 10 percent in the Pennsylvania Democratic primary, pushing the race ever forward to the nine remaining contests.
“Some counted me out and said to drop out,” Clinton told cheering supporters at a rally in Philadelphia. “But the American people don’t quit. And they deserve a president who doesn’t quit, either.”
Clinton beat Barack Obama in the Keystone State primary with a big boost from her core constituencies. Incomplete returns showed her poised to pull out a significant victory. With 84 percent of precincts reporting, Clinton had 55 percent and Obama had 45 percent. Even with the win, Clinton's road to her party's nomination would require Obama to "blow a tire" in the words of one commentator. "The math, for her, just doesn't add up," he said.
