Singer-songwriter Carole King makes a pitch for Barack Obama in Philadelphia. She tells folks “to be respectful of your Republican friends and neighbors.” Thankfully, a woman in the audience asks her to sing. She does.

Ron Paul is excited that he got 16 percent of the vote in Pennsylvania.
Sound bite: “It didn’t make the evening news, but it hasn’t gone unnoticed, let me tell ya.”
Hillary Clinton’s victory speech in Pennsylvania:
Today’s college kids are smart, says Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell, but they go to an Obama speech “and sort of drink the kool-aid.” No doubt that characterization will win over the youth vote for Hillary.
And what is “It?” What it is bro.
Tomorrow is primary day in Pennsylvania and the hills are alive with the sound of political ads. Here are the Clinton campaign’s latest efforts:
Kitchen
“It’s the toughest job in the world . . . who do you think has what it takes?” Not that soft, elitist Obama guy, that’s for damn sure. (Why doesn’t she just call him a pussy and get it over with?)
Spoke Out
Despite Hillary’s warnings, President Bush ruined America’s economy. Luck for us, she “knows how” to fix it. (Shot and a beer, please.)
For People
Hillary likes middle-class folks. Middle-class folks like Hillary.
Talk
Obama lies when he says he doesn’t take money from lobbyists. He’s just like the rest of us bought and paid-for politicians.
Answer
Obama is “making false charges against Hillary’s health care plan” because “there are more and more questions” about him and he doesn’t want to answer them. (Are you now or have you ever been a member of the Weathermen?)
Barack Obama embarked today on one of those retro “whistle-stop” train tours that modern candidates seem to love. He’s riding the rails from Philadelphia to Harrisburg aboard a stylish 1930s lounge car, stopping in towns along the way. More here and here.
A relaxed, smiling Obama greets the train crew and gets a kick out of tooting the whistle as his “On Track for Change” trip gets underway in Philadelphia. Cue The Little Engine that Could jokes:
“I-think-I-can, I-think-I-can.”
“Yes, we can. Yes, we can.”
At a stop in Wynnewood, PA, Obama says while Hillary Clinton plays “the politics of the moment,” he’s in the race “not to play the game better. I’m in this race to put an end to the game-playing.”
Sound Bite: “In the last few months, she’s launched her kitchen sink strategy, throwing everything at me and seeing if something sticks.”
Barack Obama continues to flood Pennsylvania with TV ads. Here’s the latest: Hillary old school. Hillary bad. Oil companies bad. Obama can’t be bought. Obama pure. Obama good.
In this new 30-second spot airing in Pennsylvania, Barack Obama says voters are “rejecting Hillary Clinton’s attacks.” He promises to “represent all Americans” — yes, even those bitter small-town folks.
With the Pennsylvania primary one week away, Barack Obama is bombarding the state with television ads, many of them recycled versions of earlier spots. Here’s a sampling:
“One Voice”
Obama speechifies. Young people and old people cheer. Black people and white people cheer. Asians and Latinos cheer. Bitter small-town people stop clinging to guns and religion and they cheer too.
“Nothing’s Changed”
Oil companies are greedy. Americans are paying too much for gas. Obama’s got an energy plan.
“Opportunity”
Obama’s life story in 60 seconds.
“Toughest”
Obama says special interests “have not funded my campaign. They will not run my White House. And they will not drown out the voices of the American people.”
“For Decades”
Lobbyists are to blame for economic disruptions. Barack don’t take no stinkin’ lobbyist money.
“Mother”
Obama’s mother died of cancer at age 53. She worried more about paying medical bills than getting well. Bogeymen, er, lobbyists, have prevented health care reform. Obama can change that.
“Quiet”
Obama tells people the hard truths.
In a 30-second spot running in Pennsylvania, Senator Bob Casey says times are tough and things won’t change “until we change Washington. That’s why I believe in Barack Obama.”
Barack Obama explains his remarks about small-town Pennsylvania folks being “bitter” and responds to criticism from Senators Clinton and McCain that “he’s out of touch.”
Sound Bite: “No, I’m in touch. I know exactly what’s going on. I know what’s going on in Pennsylvania. I know what’s going on in Indiana. I know what’s going in in Illinois. People are fed up. They’re angry and they’re frustrated and they’re bitter.”
In a speech endorsing Senator Obama in Pittsburgh, Luke Skywalker, uh, Mark Hamill sounds like he’s been spending too much time in the Star Wars bar.
Pennsylvanians tell why they’re ga-ga for Obama.
David has taught all over the world and now lives in his hometown of Johnstown, PA. He went to a recent Obama rally and now he’s a believer.
Sue is local Obama organizer in Turtle Creek, PA. Her father lost his job in the steel mill 20 years ago. She wanted to get involved in local politics but was told “it’s a boys club and there’s no way you’re getting in.” Then along came Barack and now she feels better.
Scranton
Hey Pennsylvania voters, I spent my childhood summers in Scranton, says Hillary Clinton in this 30-second spot featuring black-and-white home movies and photos from those idyllic days: “I was raised on pinochle and the American Dream.” And move over John Edwards: Hillary’s grandfather worked in a mill, too!

Get it Done
Philadelphia Mayor Michael Nutter explains (to black folks) why he’s supporting Hillary Clinton: “I know Hillary and I know she cares about us.” Gotta love the high five in the closing shot.
Spectacular
Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell says America needs a “fighter to get us out of the mess we’re in.” So vote for Rocky, er, Hillary: “She’ll be a spectacular president.”
