Clinton wins Puerto Rico, loses nomination

Hillary Clinton has won Puerto Rico's primary, but has lost the nomination. However, she hasn't realized it and will continue the fight, perhaps all the way to the convention in August. Claiming that she will have garnered more of the popular vote than Obama, and that she is the only won who can defeat John McCain, Clinton failes to realize that by the end of Tuesday's South Dakota primary, Obama will have reached the magic number of 2,118 delegates and superdelegates. Continuing the fight all the way to the convention will continue to fragment the Democrat Party and possibly cost them the White House in an election where they will pick up seats in both the House and Senate.
