    Clinton did not Win BIG

    Clinton may have won big states but not by big percentage points. Obama won by a bigger percentage in hi shomne state of IL than did Hilary in NY, thus evening out delgates. HIllary on by 10-11 % in CA. Much f her vote came fomr "vote by mail" ballots cast earlier. Obam did jsut as well among whites as Hillary.

    In all states Obam gets more votes from edcuated, white weklathy voters. Hillary is doing better among working class. Which proves people voting for Hllary are voting against their own best interests.

    Obama will do better going forward. The delegates are almost even now. Even in CA where she won by 10%, yo have to look at what CD districts she won and how many delelgates are awarded in those districts.
