Bill said that Obama had a "5 point lead" because of the casino caucuses. Hillary won 7 of 9. Obama won 1 of them by 6 votes. It turns out that Hillary had a 5 point lead going into this.

1. Could it be that Hillary's people bunched up at the casinos

and therefore let Obama's people be stretched out throughout the state, giving him the extra delegate?

2. No, because they had to live within 2.5 miles of the casino.

So not really. Hillary probably did better because of this.

3. But they could caucus where they work instead of where they live

I would find it ironic is all.

4. If they caucused at home, Hillary would have done slightly worse.

Probably, though she might have won some extra delegates in those individual precints.
