Hillary Won 22 Primary Contests Against A Nominee. The Most Ever! |
|
No candidate has ever won as many primary/caucus events and not been a party's nominee for President. Hillary, even in defeat, made a tremendous showing in this primary campaign.
The closest ever race for President in the modern political era. Obama could not win until the "last dog died". For all of the mistakes and gaffes Hillary made, she has much to be proud of.

Had she dropped out (as many would have) in mid February after Obama won 11 contests in a row and she was in a bit of debt, that wouldn't be true. So perhaps the tally has more to do with primary order and refusal to drop out than anything else. Just saying...

2. And what a race it was! Both candidates were historic "firsts"... |

...for our party and for our country.
..and those "big tent" Republicans can't even bring themselves to nominate a MORMON! (Morons they have no problem with.)
