As a native son of Guam, I am proud
that we Guamanians perpetuated the indecision so nearly perfectly. Wouldn't want to have spoiled the fun by actually coming down firmly on one side or the other.

:rofl:

1. LOL! And sadly, the more it is split the more it favors Obama...
since he is hugely ahead and doesnt need wins,....hillary cant afford even splits.

4. generally correct except
he actually isn't "hugely" ahead. yes he's ahead, and yes, he's going to win unless a comet hits or something. But hyperbole does nothing to further the conversation

"Hugely" would be like McCain's numbers vs Ron Paul's.

8. Because it is proportional and not winner take all he does have a huge lead in
pledged delegates. With Clinton winning a net 12 delegates in PA she would need 12 more PA victories to catch up and as we all know there are fewer and smaller primaries coming up, many which she is not expected to win.

2. ACTUALLY YOU DIDNT OBAMA WILL NET 3
So thanks for that, the vote was close but OBAMA proved he is better organized and trounced her in the de facto SUPERS ELECTION.

11. Sixty years ago Lyndon Johnson won an election by 87 votes

After that he was known as "Landslide Lyndon". Yesterday Obama won an election by 7 votes. What will they call him ?

I think I'll make an icon with that.
PS: just in case you don't know, Agana is the capital city of Guam

Also my hometown.
