Here is her latest "popular vote" ad.
Her popular vote turnout didn't increase much, what with Puerto Rico's low turnout and all. She got about a 20% turnout, and they usually get 80%, per CNN's Jessica Yellin. But remember, she's more electable. Barack has beaten the ultimate insider. Let's see what her mindset is.
I give you Hillary Clinton (but will you take her?):
Oh no, she's doing "the Hillary clap" to the festive music . I hate "the Hillary clap".
I have four words for you, "Que quiero Puerto Rico". Never has P.R. had such an important voice. I am so grateful. I hope we've helped to draw attention to your concerns and spotlight the beauty and the spirit of this wonderful place. I came to listen to your voices. I hear you. I see you. I will always stand up for you.
I also want to recognize Obama and his supporters. Our campaigns have turned out rampant numbers of new supporters. There is so much at stake and we must elect a Democratic president. I am overwhelmed by this vote today, but I can't complete this journey without your help. We have 2 more elections to go. Visit Hillary Clinton dot com. Every contribution will help us make our case. You voted for the person who you thought will be the strongest nominee, the strongest president, and you are not alone. (crowd cheers "yes we can"..huh?)
She then gave the number of votes she's received. (missed the number) Lists the people who she cares about (college students, nurses, etc.) who yearn for a president who will restore leadership in the world, and restore the economy. The people are resilient and resourceful, they can keep working for a better tomorrow... the American Dream [see Obama's speech].
You need a president who is on your side, who will stand up for better health care, etc. etc. Real solutions. Today you defied the skeptics. More people have voted for us than any candidate in the history of presidential primaries. We are winning the popular vote. Now there can be no doubt. The people have spoken and you have chosen your candidate. And it's important where: Swing states. Together we've won the battleground states (lists them)... including Michigan and Florida. And I hope by my second term, you too will be able to vote for the next president.
On Tuesday, neither will have the number of delegates. I'll have the popular vote, he'll have a slight lead in delegates. It will come down to the convention.[Please note, she said one more thing before the "convention" word, and I missed it] A decision has to be made. I ask you to consider: Which one best represents the will of the people who voted? (crowd: Hillary! Hillary!) Which is best able to lead us to victory in November? And which is best able to lead our nation as our president in the face of unprecedented challenges at home and abroad? I believe I am that candidate and will be that pres. We are winning the popular vote because we believe in the core principles of our party. [Lists them.]
We are winning against John McCain. We have what it takes to get the electoral votes. The majority of voters know who is ready to serve on Day One. I am the candidate who has the strength, knowledge, experience... who knows first hand the challenges... It's not about Obama or me, it's about YOU [SOUND FAMILIAR?].
Thank yous to staff, campaign workers, etc. I want to reiterate: Together in my first term, we will resolve the status question. Puerto Rico should have the opportunity to choose. We will work to ensure that P.R. is treated equally re: Medicare, Medicaid, etc. Thanks labor unions. Thanks Hispanic community in P.R. and in U.S., her family.
We are in this for a candidate who will unite us. [!!] I am grateful for every day of this campaign. Join me as we take America back. Let's keep fighting for our dreams. For one another. For America. America is worth fighting for.
