In NE, KS & LA HRC greatly improved on her 2008 showing

[book_worm]

As a vote getter Bernie is proving to be no Barack Obama.

While losing Kansas and Nebraska to Bernie--Hillary Clinton still improved her showing in both states. In 2008 she got 25.7% against Obama in Kansas--tonight she won 32.3% of the vote a gain of nearly 7-points. In Nebraska in 2008 HRC received 32.2% and today she received 43.4% a gain of over 11-points. The biggest prize of all is Louisiana where she received 35.6% against Obama but today out-performed even Barack Obama by winning 71.1% of the vote--nearly doubling her 2008 showing.

4. When Obama ran against Hillary Clinton

- she didn't have Super PACs
- she didn't have the experience of Secretary of State*
- she hadn't campaigned for president eight years earlier


* - I consider Hillary Clinton's SoS experience negative since she promoted fracking and the disastrous Libya War. However, many voters seem to look positively on her SoS experience.

And he had the states political machine including both US Senators backing him!. You forgot that one.
