VOX POP
There was a flurry of flak from the Clintons this morning about how she would win the popular vote and that should be the guidleline for selecting the party nominee, not delegates.
Other than moving the goal posts and changing the rules in the last quarter of the game, it is also probable nonsense.
Take a look at the numbers.
RealClearPolitics-Democratic Vote Count.
This adds Florida and Michigan and leaves out the caucus states, incidentally.
It seems rather improbable that Clinton can catch up on this metric, no matter how twisted, with the remaining primaries
It is the silly part of the primary season now. It is the Huckabee phenomenon. Stay in and claim anything just because you cannot stop.
UPDATE: I just found this.
Can Clinton Still Win The Popular Vote? No.
