21. False comparison.
it wasn't 'at this point in 1988', because the primary calendar has changed dramatically since 1988. The candidate to whom you refer won 11 primary and caucus contests. Obama has won...count them...thirty (including Democrats Abroad and the Virgin Islands). And gotten more delegates in two of the contests Clinton 'won'.

There are not enough remaining contests in which she has a serious chance of getting the needed vote margin, not enough remaining votes, not enough remaining delegates, for Clinton to 'win' by any real measure (votes, delegates).
