4. very sad
that his supporters have to stoop so low to make themselves feel better about a disappointing loss.

Despite the glowing press, the charming smile and the message of Hope and Change, occasional losses are a reality in Politics and the sooner Obama and his supporters learn to handle it with grace and humor, the better it will be.

As for delegates, Obama still lags behind Hillary in the total delegate count: 135 to 237 per TPM

...

Clinton leads the overall race for delegates with 237, including separately chosen party and elected officials known as superdelegates. She is followed by Obama with 135 and former Sen. John Edwards with 50.

A total of 2,025 delegates are needed to secure the Democratic nomination.
