    Here's Hillary on how things are going:

    Solis Doyle's departure capped a rough weekend for Clinton after she lost the Louisiana primary and caucuses in Nebraska, Washington state, Maine and the Virgin Islands to Obama. She said she never expected to do well in any of those contests, even though she had been favored to win Maine. Clinton repeated her criticism that the caucus system is undemocratic and caters mostly to party activists. As for Louisiana, "You had a very strong and very proud African-American electorate, which I totally respect and understand," Clinton said.

    So she didn't expect to win Nebraska, Washington state, and Maine because ... they're so white? At least, unlike her husband, she didn't mention Jesse Jacksonwho also won Louisiana in 1984.
