Hillary Beast Still in Trouble
Hillary needed two big wins in Ohio and Texas.

Anyone watching a mainstream media news report would get the impression that Hillary Clinton pulled off some miracle on March 4th. The truth is that she is still in serious trouble. Prior to March 4th, several political pundits were saying that Hillary needed to win big in both Ohio and Texas to compete with Obama. Hillary failed to do this. She only won big in Ohio while only narrowly edging out Obama in Texas. The Democrats do not have a “winner take all” system so a narrow victory in Texas only means a few more delegates for Hillary. At best, Hillary is hanging on by her fingernails with a significant delegate deficit and no obvious way to make up the difference.
Ohio relies heavily on Diebold machines to count the vote and has a history of suspicious election results.

Texas also has a history of vote thievery that dates back to LBJ in the 1960s. (more…)
