1. We'll see. So far the margins Obama's beating her by have been a lot more significant than the margins she's beaten him by in the few states that she has.

2. Highly unlikely. You have to concede that Obama has been winning by much, much higher margins in the states he's won than she has in the states she's won. We're talking margins of around 74% to 26% in a couple of cases. She's come nowhere near close to those kinds of numbers, even in her home state of New York.

3. Again, we'll see. It's possible, but I don't think it'll be as high of a margin as she needs.

4. She was the only one on the ballot in Michigan, and even then she only won 55% to 40% who showed up to vote uncommitted. Obama wasn't even on the ballot, so how exactly is that fair? As far as Florida goes, it was 50% for Hillary and 30% for Obama without any campaigning on his part. Who knows what those numbers would have been if he'd had a chance to campaign there. Either way, I don't think the difference in delegates would be enough to help her out a lot the way things have been going.

5. Maybe so, but the fact they were stripped and the candidates agreed not to campaign in those states is what it is. To reverse it now would serve no purpose. Like I said, Obama wasn't even on the ballot in MI. Would kind of be a dirty trick on Clinton's part, dontcha think?

6. I don't think any of the candidates were necessarily in favor of it, however they accepted it and are not trying to continue to change it after the fact.

7. Yeah, I wouldn't count on those delegates going to Clinton. The tide seems to have shifted.

8. And that's exactly the kind of election no one seems to want but people who support Hillary.
