7. Judging by the Hillary campaing reaction

You would have thought she gained 100 on Barack...

12. That's why she's harping on the popular vote

Back when this all began, they were quick to tell everybody this was about delegates and not states because they didn't want people to count states won. Then, when Obama tied the delegates in NH and actually won the delegates in NV, they switched to it being about big states. Then, when Obama started winning big states too, and he has, they switched to the popular vote.

This is why a lot of us have been saying she needs to drop out. She can't overtake him in the delegate count because of the proportional Dem Party allocation system. The only way she can win is to get the supers to overturn the voters, who ARE electing delegates. And the only way she can do that is to destroy Obama.

But because the Clintons lie so damn much, and her supporters just refuse to see it, we're going to muddle through this damn charade and hope we aren't completely destroyed before she accepts reality.

13. Oh man! Once again I find myself feeling sorry for Hillary...

Does that mean her "big day" netted her only 4 delegates now?

That's, let's see, about 1/2 of what Obama netted in Hawaii.
