(CNN) - CNN just called the Pennsylvania primary race for Hillary Clinton. How did she win?
Her clear support from white voters and women. Both groups constituted large majorities in Tuesday's primary, and both voted for Clinton handily.
Whites made up over 80 percent of Pennsylvania Democrats. Clinton bested Obama among those voters by 20 points, 60 to 40 percent.
Women also constituted a clear majority of Pennsylvania primary voters – 56 percent. They voted for Clinton by a 12-point margin, 56 to 44 percent.
Another reason Clinton won? She beat Obama easily among late-deciders. Those voters who decided in the last three days went for the New York senator by a 15-point margin, 57 percent to 42 percent.

She won because Pennsylvania voters realized that she is the far more qualified candidate in the race.
I think its really funny people think Obama should drop out. Are you freaking kidding me? He ahead- and no a win is not a win- she got by with the skin of her teeth. People stop being so stupid. Do you know how to read? Do you know basic math??
National Polls Barack Obama 51% Hillary Clinton 41%
WHOOO HOOOO!!!
National polls fluctuate. Gallup has Clinton up a few days ago.
I'm tired of the starry-eyed Obama supporters who just want to join the fad popular movement. The ability to speak in a slow, dramatic voice and repeat the word "change" a lot is not the ability to run a country.
DON'T THESE PEOPLE KNOW WHAT WILL HAPPEN IF CLINTON GOES TO WHITE HOUSE ? BILL ALSO GOES AND WE SHOULD ALL KNOW BY NOW WHAT BILL DOES IN OUR WHITE HOUSE AND WHO NEEDS THAT ?
THESE CLINTONS ARE SICK PEOPLE
This is just a start! Obama will not be the next President!
she lied. That is how she won.
The best solution now- the Dem leaders sit them both down and make them agree to a Clinton/Obama ticket. That would give us 16 years in the White House. If this craziness continues, we will get a big fat 0 years in the White House, as McCain will benefit from a split Democratic party. Please- make this happen!
Dan from Illinois: Barack Obama won the State of Illinois by a landslide, remember? Quit being so naive...or redneck...or whatever you are...
