Obama won Guam. Hillary's one contest winning streak is over

Obama won Guam last night.

Clinton's one contest streak is over. Yes, let's repeat that. Because, as I've written before, contrary to the spin and the gullibility of the punditry to be spun, after PA, Clinton was on a one-state winning streak. After the February 5th Super Tuesday contests, Clinton lost 11 in a row (those still count). On March 4th, Clinton won two (Ohio and Rhode Island) while losing two (Vermont and Texas -- yes, she lost Texas, it's about delegates, remember). She then lost two more, Wyoming and Mississippi, before winning Pennsylvania by a smaller margin than expected. That's was a one-state streak that has bestowed magical powers upon her. But, she still can't -- and won't -- win the nomination.

And, if Clinton is as hot as all the pundits think, she should win both North Carolina and Indiana by wide margins. She has to win both. And, big. Or she can't deliver.
