1. I think
Hillary gained a net of 2, but that does not include the TX caucus where Obama is leading.

It's going to end up a net delegate loss for Clinton when those are awarded from the looks of things. I don;t have the totals.

3. You're an old timer.
Would you rather the popular vote decide or the "delegates" decide?

I know what the 'rules' are. You can't change it.

Politics is a game my friend. Always has been, always will be. Actually, I believe Obama probably has garnered more individual votes than Clinton.

7. I don't think they will
But I wish I has something that strong just for recreational purposes.

My point is to show that Hillary is realistically eliminated from the nomination.

She is like the Pirates in the National League central in the all-star break. She is not technically eliminated mathamatically, but she is realistically out of the running unless she replaces Penn with Jesus, Moses, and Albert Pujols.
