It's moments like these, (5.00 / 3) (#3)

when the odds seem so very difficult, that Hillary always appears strongest. The more inevitable the media makes Obama's nomination, the more reason I have to believe that Hillary is going to upset every calculation and expectation.

Just as she did in New Hampshire, California, Ohio and Texas.

Except... (1.00 / 1) (#16)

when she lost in Texas.

Every time Obama comes up short, his supporters have to bring in the instance where he comes out ahead, even if it goes against the 'will of the people'.

the way the rules work.  You can argue all you want that Caucuses are no good, but because no one fought that fight BEFORE the primary, that is the way the people do things.  It's a time honored tradition in Texas.

And Obama got more delegates.  Sorry.

True, (5.00 / 2) (#42)

and the superdelegates can choose Hillary.

Glad we can agree on the rules.

As an Obama supporter to another, do you know how annoying this sounds? Yes, he won delegates, but she got more votes, thousands of them. So he won in delegates, but you know we are talking about supporters here.

PS. Not that it think Obama did anything unfair, the system should be fixed but when they both start in the same place and with the same rules it is a fair fight. Plus he started way behind, his campaign team was just better than hers. I think if Hillary had a more efficient campaign staff she probably would have won this by now instead of running behind Obama.
