CNN calls it a showdown in Pennsylvania; The New York Times calls it a battle. Whatever the headlines shout, everyone is buzzing about the Pennsylvania primary today that has Democrats registering in record numbers. Clinton says she has to pull a big win while Obama says he is counting on a close race to keep him ahead in the delegate count. Neither candidate is guaranteeing the victory needed to take the nomination (for more on why a win’s not necessarily a victory, check out Holly Yeager’s piece). What is your prediciton?
