The Hillary Experience

Except that the only informal electoral poll that's been done so so far has Obama with 280 electoral votes and Clinton with 276 (both enough to beat McCain). So I don't really see what data supports that argument either. Not that I take a poll done in march with a sample size of 30,000 with a nomination race still going on as particularly meaningful, but it certainly makes Hillary's arguments that much less likely to hold water.

It's one thing for her to try to tell people they've made the wrong choice. It's another to utterly distort reality to do so. It takes a whole lot of caveating and squinting at fuzzy numbers to remotely support the claims she's made. I really don't see how playing the part of sore loser is helping her maintain influence. It's making her look like a bafoon.
