And these popular vote totals that she keeps claiming don't count Iowa, Nevada, Washington & Maine, because they have caucuses and don't release popular vote counts. Obama won 3 of those 4 by very healthy margins.

If the popular vote was what counted in the nominating process Obama would have spent all of his time and money trying to get more votes in the big states and big cities and would have ignored the small caucus states.
Since delegates nominate he based his strategy on how to obtain the most delegates, and he was successful at that.
You play a lot of what ifs? I use WHAT DIDs.
