Obama spinmeistering crazy in Pennsylvania

Barack Obama claims that losing Pennsylvania’s Democratic primary to Hillary Clinton by less than 10 points would be a victory.

That’s not even mild spin. That’s ridiculous.

Here’s where it could backfire, though. Let’s say pundits accept the 10-point handicap as legitimate and Obama loses by more than that.

Hasn’t he then left the door open to serious questions about his electability?
