Considering she started at the summit of Chimborazo, this "victory" is in the Mariana Trench

Get ready for her reinvention as the biggest tooth fairy ever.

1. Don't know if I've ever seen so many creative ways of swapping the words "win" and "lose" before.

[whatchamacallit]

4. So this is the win you were hoping for?

Couldn't have turned out better, Dan?

[DanTex]

6. Sure it could have turned out better. Things always can.

She did win, though, which ends the "2008" narrative. She's a huge favorite to win the nomination, which is good, because after watching the GOP speeches last night, it reinforced how important it is for a Dem to win the GE.

9. It might be wise to temper your gloating

5. Given the history and circumstances of the race

8. Only in winner-take-all states.

IA isn't a winner-take-all state.

[localroger]

13. Yep, this is the biggest thing that sunk her in 2008

Her campaign treated the primary as if it was winner-take-all by state, ignoring the delegates Obama was accumulating in the runup to Super Tuesday. Sure enough she won all the states on Super Tuesday, but it wasn't enough to cinch the nomination as they'd been proudly crowing it would.

3. ...squinting.... Metaphor, or nah? ....squinting....

[whatchamacallit]

10. Better?

[alcibiades_mystery]

11. Than what?

[whatchamacallit]

12. I changed the title

7. tie and victory

There is a difference between a tie and victory. Clinton needs to elarn the difference between tie and victory. also to learn no one not even her is destined to eb president of the united states/
