After Hillary Clinton's 10-point win over Barack Obama, there are lots of traditional photos out of Pennsylvania tonight, but the one that caught my eye was from Saturday, in the rain, in McKeesport, Pa.

No matter whom you support, that's an amazing photo of a presidential candidate. It looks like a poster you'd see in the display case outside a movie theater. I want to put type on it.

(Update: A reader with graphic skills turned it into a poster just for fun, and emailed it to me -- see it here.)

Later: The Charlotte (N.C.) Observer's lead headline: Do not pass go, go straight to Leno.

The new p.a. system sounds like a nice prize for a campaigner, but is it worthy of the lead?
