Actually, Hillary DID not expect the RULES within the Democratic Party nomination process to be so stacked against her…what with MI and FL not counting (and only NOW being seated with 1/2 the delegate count) and the biggest #1 Rule of all that screwed her royally…the proportional delegate count system.

Obama took a big lead with the early caucus voting (which was also stacked against Hillary) and then road that to victory even while he lost big swing state after big swing state.

If the Dems had used the much more ACCURATE and fair ALL or NOTHING system the Republicans use…Obama would be the one giving the “farewell speech”.

But Dems use this type of system because they think it IS the fair one…but it, along with their brainless “super-delegate” hybrid-monster…ends up giving them LOSER candidate after LOSER candidate.

And just as we have and will see “sexism” floated as a cause for Hillary’s loss (it’s not!) we will end up (much more!) seeing “RACISM” floated as a cause for Obama’s loss. (Again, it won’t be.)

The reason is the Democratic Party SYSTEM… organized with caucuses, proportional delegate distribution, and super-delegate “hybreeds” that can vote however they “feel”…so that a charismatic, masterful neophyte, with barely ANY experience, can game the system to win the nomination.

Fortunately, we don’t elect our Presidents that way in November!
