CNN just reported it at 59%  for Obamawith 91% in.  They give Obama Six net delegates.  I think it's a +12 for elected delegates for Clinton for the month

LOL.

Ohio +9 Hillary
Rhode Island +5 Hillary
Vermont +3 Obama
Texas +4 Hillary
Texas Caucus +9 Obama
Wyoming +2 Obama
Mississippi +6 Obama

+2 Obama overall.

how is that good news?

your hero obama could have easily put hillary away by winning texas.

And your hero Hillary could have easily put Obama away by winning Iowa or South Carolina

There have been three chances for Obama, the candidate with the momentum at the time, could have ended it.  NH, where he was expected to win.  Super Tuesday where it was closer, but still possible; he was expected to do better in CA.  March 4th, which should have been a win.  All three times, he's failed.  That ability was always his.

Now, at best, Obama is into a slug fest with Clinton until mid-May.  At worst, this isn't settled until late August.

I disagree that March 4th should have been a win. Just because he gained momentum in the weeks prior to that contest, doesn't mean that Clinton still wasn't heavily favored. I admit that I expected a win in the final days, but I wouldn't say that Obama "missed it". You can argue the same way about contests that Hillary could/should have won, as an argument for why she should have finished off Obama.
