4. check the count again
They are very close in terms of the popular vote, less than %1 difference I belive, so given name the recognition and having Big Dog barking over head, I would say there is nothing to brag about.

13. Hillary was always favored for Super Tuesday, he had to spend to stay competitive with her.
Now it is his turn for his favored states.

2. I know fish aren't know for their smarts, fishy, but try to absorb this
She was the prohibitive frontrunner.

She was supposed to win 18 of the states.

She spent a huge amount also.

And most of all, wee fishy, the vote margin was .04%. Even you should be able to understand that's essesntially a tie.

Pathetic that you're scraping the bottom of the barrel for excuses.

12. LOL! Two can play at that game fishhead.
Hillary is self-funding- like Romney. Spending like Romney. Dependent on huge amounts of lobbyist money. Desperately trying to get free air time.


She must be just like Romney.

You are an idiot.

7. He was supposed to win only 3 of 21. He surged forward to win 13 states. He made up 20 points
in the nationwide polling.

I think he's doing all right.

14. she got a few thousand more votes less than 1% and Obama won more states and came back from 20-pts
or more down in the polls in most of the states. But keep trying to spin it.
