1. I wondered how long it would take Clinton supporters to come up with relative difference.....
... to spin and deceive with.

Um, perhaps you don't realize that we can do that with EVERY state? And with delegates. And with donations.

lol - you really don't want to go there.

3. And LOL right back atcha
Notice that my little spreadsheet says that the only way you'll get 'double digits' out of this result is the % error between what's true and what's being claimed.

Slow down on the old keyboard there, partner, we're on the same side...

6. OK. I'm sorry, I overestimated my fellow Obama supporters
ability to see irony.

The point was that the only 'double-digit' number you can come up with is the % error between the 10% claim and what the Pennsylvania state parties web site reports.

I'll put the little :sarcasm: thingie in explicitly next time....

10. The problem is that your OP is exactly what we expect from Clinton supporters...
... When satire is sufficiently close to the truth, it doesn't work.
