What was the consensus after super-tuesday? Obama would rack up a bunch of wins until Ohio/Texas |

Ohio and Texas would probably go to Hillary. Then we have 6 weeks of ugly mud-slinging. She would win Penn. And then Obama takes her in the remaining states.
Hillary needed to crush Obama on super-tuesday. Really, there have been no surprises since then. Sadly, I hoped she would concede rather than drag this thing out. She hasn't won Texas, Ohio, and Penn by the margins she needs. There is just no plausible way now she can surpass Obama in delegate count.

will probably win 2-3 in Guam (out of 4) and PR will probably bounce her up a few.
Nonetheless, the best she can hope for is going to the convention 100-120 behind, and that is generous.

3. I guess if Obama starts losing states, that would be unexpected. |

The margin in TX was surprisingly small, and the delegate win for Obama was unexpected in TX.

The Midwest is clearly not impressed with Hillary, they never have been.

7. You're right. I think Obama's campaign has this mapped out allready. |
|
Remember them making predictions all the way through. It ends with an Obama win.
