Obama lost to Clinton tonight in PA. The post election discussion by the candidates is most interesting. I got this email (see below) from the Obama campaign tonight with th subject “What this means”.

This email came from Barack himself, not one of his campaign guys. He positions Clinton with McCain as being the enemy and closes by asking for a small donation. When he asks this of the million plus on his email list, he will likely get a big combined donation and that will be in the press real soon.

The man is a skilled politician and he is using the social web like no one ever has before. Whether he wins or loses, he has changed the game.

Votes are still being counted in Pennsylvania, but one thing is already clear.

In a state where we trailed by more than 25 points just a couple weeks ago, you helped close the gap to a slimmer margin than most thought possible.

Thanks to your support, with just 9 contests remaining, we’ve won more delegates, more votes, and twice as many contests.

We hold a commanding position, but there are two crucial contests coming up — voters will head to the polls in North Carolina and Indiana in exactly two weeks. And we’re already building our organization in the other remaining states.

But it’s clear the attacks are going to continue, and we’re going to continue fighting a two-front battle against John McCain and Hillary Clinton.

I need your support right now. Please make a donation of $25:

Thank you for all that you’re doing to change our country.

Barack
