i don't really understand your argument here; clinton would have easily won with a 28 point lead in the philly suburbs; the polls were obviously wrong but i'm not sure that meant the analysis was

Xenocrypt added,
oh, that's a different issue. if people conflated phi+suburbs with suburbs, that's obviously wholly different. but if clinton had won the philly suburbs by 28, the focus on the region would have been entirely appropriate!
Ok that was one of three Tweets I screenshot to make a more general point.

I know, but it is worth noting that people perceived (in some cases in error, as you show) apocalyptic numbers for the Trump that merited that kind of focus (here's one without such an error)https://twitter.com/TheStalwart/status/786500603438563328?s=20 …
Nate Cohn added,
Like, if the polls had been *right,* and they showed Trump narrowly leading PA with huge gains in rural PA and so on, surely the pre-election analysis should have focused on that right?
I guess my thinking is, the focus on the suburbs wasn't solely from pure analysis of the polls, but also from a certain preconception about "the path to win in Pennsylvania".
i do think there is something to that--a vague mid-2000s-era 'suburbs decide elections' sentiment that people assert regardless of whether the data in any particular poll or election seems to bare it out
There is also a failure to distinguish between the various political flavors of suburbs and exurbs
