To be fair, I think everyone thought Clinton was going to take it. If I'm not mistaken, she won the popular vote. It was the change in electoral votes that had Obama to win.
Not really. Obama won the Iowa caucus, then Hillary won New Hampshire, but Obama held a slight lead pretty much the entire primary from then on. At best, you could say that 50% of people though Clinton would take it, not "everyone."
