She's also not doing bad in swing states and I hope she takes FL and OH tomorrow.

Bernie supporters are trying to make it look like she's weak in blue states and would lose them to a Republican in the general election.
They fail to realize that she's losing there because they're more liberal - as in, they'd vote for her over a Republican faster than you can blink. In reality, her strength in the red states signals that against a divisive figure like Trump, she might actually convert some of them and do even better with the electoral college count than either of Obama's victories.
