But the Obama camp might not want to rest on its laurels. Among Hawaii’s congressional delegation, nominee support is fractured. The state’s senior senator, Daniel Inouye, announced two weeks ago he would support Hillary Clinton. Rep. Neil Abercrombie is supporting Obama, but Sen. Daniel Akaka remains quiet on the matter. “The Democrats in Hawaii are less and less cohesive,” says Jim Shon, a political analyst and former state legislator....
But only 79 minutes. When the final whistle blew, and Bayern had completed a 1-0 victory over Werder Bremen that clinched an eighth consecutive Bundesliga title, Davies had been disqualified from the game because he’d twice been shown yellow cards. The second of them was harsh, because he’d not done anything physically egregious and neither had he wrecked a promising play with his foul. Regardless, he was sent off and Bayern had to preserve its one-goal lead with only 10 men....
Give credit where it’s due: Hillary Clinton has shown grit and determination in finishing out the race. She has proved herself a strong campaigner. And in the week since West Virginia, she has stopped the cheap shots that had marred her campaign this year. But Clinton has continued with one claim that could have a pernicious effect on the Democrats’ chances in November. While she knows that the nomination is determined by delegates, Hillary insists on saying at every opportunity that she is winning the popular vote....

‘RAW’ thoughts Am I the only one who … … is cautiously optimistic about the SummerSlam main event between Universal Champion Brock Lesnar and Roman Reigns? I know, I know. No one wants to see another Lesnar-Reigns match, and I have no doubt the crowd at Barclays Center in Brooklyn, N.Y., on Aug. 19 will defecate all over the bout, but it’s possible that the end might justify the means. I’m probably naive for saying this, but even Vince McMahon can’t be so stubborn and tone deaf that he would have Reigns win the title and continue to be booked as the lead babyface....
Amanda Nunes was five fights into her career, sporting a 4-1 record. It was a good start that had the potential to be a blossoming career. But then things went sideways for the Brazilian as she went 3-2 from February 2010 to January 2013. Nunes appeared to get a new lease on life when the UFC implemented Women’s MMA at the beginning of 2013. Things started well as she went 2-0 with two stoppages....
