LA?

Louisiana, I meant, though I don't remember. Do polls close at eight central or eastern time?

Ah...I thought you had missed the CA primary. I guess the abbreviation I was thinking of is just more common.

Hilarious Clinton spin on her losses this past weekend:

Oh, well isn't that convenient, every single state that the Democrats will never win is also a state that Obama won, and every single state that the Democrats must focus in is also a state that Clinton won.

EDIT: Oh, besides Missouri.  Is Clinton still clinging to the belief that she won Missouri?

Yes, Texas sure is a must-win for a Democratic presidential nominee. But it's a clever spin. One would expect people to go the other way, saying that Obama's strength in GOP areas is a sign of strength for the general (it isn't, of course, but that's irrelevant) and yet she manages to make it the other way around.
