Prognosis is she won Pennsylvania fairly big, but overall she is still lagging behind Obama.
The win, if the numbers hold up as they are being reported by CNN, is a 10-point spread. I could be wrong, but that's probably the best performance yet for Clinton against Obama in any primary/caucus this year. In the bigger picture, she is still behind in pledged delegates by 141 as of this posting.

Did she score a significant win? I'd say yeah. Was it a complete blowout against Obama? I wouldn't think so.

1. 10% compared to 20+ just weeks ago is no big win. Kindly come down to earth.

3. That's pretty big compared to other contests.
She gets 40 delegates with that spread. Obama gets 37. That's only a three point gain on Obama if you want to look at it that way. The others are super delegates. They vote however they will.
