Read 'em and weep
Obama's got the delegates, the popular vote, and more and more of the Supers.
Just because others can see the obvious, does not mean they are "afraid of" a woman, or mysoginests.
And just so you know, American elections have NEVER been about the popular vote (in case you want to argue that MI and FL give Shrillary the Popular vote). The Constitution specifies that the people elect Electors, who elect the president. The House is charged with the responsibility of breaking a tie of the Electors...again, delegates of the people, not the people themselves, elect a president.
Presidential elections are really 50-some separate elections (how many territories can vote anyway?). Shrillary's claim of being more "ordinary" really carries no weight. She should get out and get out now.
