Politics up to the Minute

From TIME's Jay Newton-Small

After eating "every bite" of a cheesesteak at Pat's King of Steaks in Philadelphia, Obama did a brief interview with XM Satellite radio. In it he was asked about expectations: "Let me cut to the chase. A win is 50 plus 1. So if Senator Clinton gets over 50% she's won the state and I don't try and pretend that I enjoy getting only 45% and that's a moral victory. You've lost the state."
