1. if you're watching it on CNN...
while she was gloating that she won the tie-breaker Indiana, CNN had the banner along the bottom that said "Indiana too close to call"...LOL

5. That's not true
Look at when Lake County has historically reported its vote. It's always late. In fact, a few years ago they had it so screwed up that they didn't post the results until the following day. Can't blame that on Obama.

6. This is petty
Obama already earlier congratulated her on her seeming victory in Indiana. Yes he included the "seeming" part and she didn't, but she was talking to a room full of supporters in Indiana who have worked their hearts out for her to probably gave her a very narrow victory there. At least one network called Indiana for Clinton, there is no harm here, no real foul. In the same speech she repeated that she will work her heart out for the Democratic nominee whoever that is.

9. She had to speak at some point tonight
Her supporters had been waiting for hours, and she had to speak at some point in prime time. Obama spoke in Texas before the results were in.
