CNN

I don't know why she was worried about voter intimidation. The Democrat Party volunteers were very good at intimidating voters that were wearing Obama or Edwards stickers. Hillary had nothing to worry about; she trained them well!

Since we're on the topic of voter intimidation . . .

Bill Clinton is the one guilty of trying to and succeeding in suppressing the vote here in Nevada!

When the unions endorsed Obama, Clinton supporters tried to shut down the casino precints in Vegas 2 days later. When the judge laughed them out of court, Bill interferes with our vote in Vegas by showing up at several precincts on the strip on Caucus day, demanding entrance, and dragging along his massive security detail, creating a HUGE disruption. Many caucusers were so star struck that they either didn't bother to caucus, or decided to caucus for Hillary.

This doesn't surprise me. There is a great deal riding on this next election. And it shows in every voter coming out in the primaries. The issues are closer to home. And everyone is hurting in some way. The problem is that some people are taking their support to their candidate a little too far. They become enraged at even the slightest problem with their candidate winning. This has got to stop. We need to focus our energy in a positive way and let the chips fall where they may. The primary process is just vetting who will represent us in the general election. Let's save our energy for that fight.

The bottom line... we are all fighting for the same thing. Change. Come together and just vote your conscience no matter which candidate that is. When we determine who best to send to the general election then let's all step up behind them and win.

Telling it like I see it,

That is the EXACT problem with you Hillary cheerleaders, THIS ISN'T THE 90'S AND YOU CAN'T REVERSE TIME. The economics of the country have changed. The dollar is decreasing everyday, etc. etc. there will be no repeat of the 90's unless the almighty himself is in the WH; otherwise you all are dreaming.

as exciting as it was to have a woman running for President, I am convinced that Billiary is not the one. I always thought President was a one person job.

Here is what I call voter intimidation:

Filing a lawsuit seeking to disenfranchise the entire Culinaries Union.

These people make me literally sick.
I cannot wait to be rid of them.

well what about the NURSES who works in the hospitals..is it fair to have only culinary workers get special treatment and allow them to vote just because they endorsed barack hussein obama but the nurses cannot vote because they do not have caucus sites in the hospitals

what kind of a democracy is this?
why the double standard

When Clinton's whine, look to the grapes. They have done something underhanded, it is pure history repeating itself.

Anyone but Hillary '08

The culinary union should be pissed at the Clintons for even implying that they might not vote there own minds, This whole theory of Bills before the caucus and then the accusations of voter intimidation ? The trickery here is obvious

Hillary Supports and Angry bunch January 19, 2008 6:56 pm ET

Hillary seems like a woman scorn, like we owe her a crown. She is a woman scorn.

All of the Hillary supports seem Angry, they are an angry bunch.

^^^^^^^^^^^^ We love you too troll or is your testosterone levels out of whack?! Go out and chill at the club with your buddies – you've all been spending way too much time on the blogs and youtube...

Maybe Hillary should cry about this too???

I love that the Clintons whine, complain, cry, poor poor victims that they are. Bill attacks, moans, cheats, lies, steals... and then he gets his wife to cry that they are poor innocent victims.

America doesnt need more of this.

Jack,
Oprah didn't attack Hillary Clinton, call her claim of 35 years of experience a "Fairy Tale", call her a "Kid", distort her record or accuse her of "voter intimidation". There IS a difference, and I'm sure you know what the meaning of "IS" is right?

EXCUSE ME JEREMY YOU IDIOT.
THE CLINTON CAMPAIGN HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH THE LAW SUIT. DAH!!!! THAT WAS THE TEACHER'S UNION. CAN WE READ A NEWSPAPER PEOPLE ???????????

BRYAN FROM ILLINOIS – WHO IS PLAYING THE RACE CARD????? I AM A WHITE LATINO – OBAMA HASN'T BEEN TO MY CHURCH OR IN MY NEIGHBORHOOD – HILLARY HAS AND ACTUALLY SHOOK A LATINO'S HAND OOOOOHHHH HOW RACIST OF THE CLINTON'S, HOW DARE THEY!!!

ALL I KNOW IS THAT IN THE 90'S I HAD A WHOLE LOT BETTER JOB AND WAS FINANCIALLY BETTER OFF, MY TAXES WERE HALF OF WHAT I PAY NOW. I WANT THOSE TIMES TO RETURN AGAIN. I DON'T GIVE A S–T ABOUT WHO HE SLEPT WITH. THIS COUNTRY WAS IN THE GREEN FOR THE FIRST TIME, UNDER BILL CLINTON IMAGINE THAT????

Of course there was pressure applied to the caucus goers and it was applied by the Clinton Mafia.

Even in victory the Clintons complain about how put upon they are. If the story was on the other foot, I am sure the Clintons would downplay anything that happened outside their immediate realm...just look at all the race-baiting last week. Their main purpose was just to make sure Barack Obama was painted as the Black candidate, instead of an American candidate.

WAH-WAH-WAH

And she (allegedly) won anyway

I can't STAND her!!!

Folks, please stop doging out the Clinton's. Obama , had Oprah Winfrey by his side in all of these states. On the other side it no more then been fair if Bill support Hillary. Mr Obama , dose not have the winning plate on the table to deal with the Clinton's on politics. So, lets be fair about the whole nine yards.

Hillary seems like a woman scorn, like we owe her a crown. She is a woman scorn.

All of the Hillary supports seem Angry, they are an angry bunch.

The Clinton family wants to go back to the white house with lies? This family will never go back to the white house. Hillary will never be president of USA.

Bill will do that, don't worry my friend, wonder who she will cry to if she got elected and be confronted with real issues; USA is a greatest nation on planet earth, needs one with good sense of judgment, cos all what you listed will be done by cabinet ministers, all those are political terms, have anyone you seen any president without advisers on all those issues?

Steve25 January 19, 2008 5:10 pm ET

Republican Party would love to see Sen. Clinton win Democratic Party Primaries so that they will swift-boat ed her to the maximum.

^^^^^^^^^^^Brawhaaahaaaahaaaahaaahaa what else does the GOP machine have left that they haven't already thrown out?! yawn been there done that – what else y'all got.... snooze snore snort = Y'all just sore big baby losers and the GrandOldParty is going down for the count this time. Can't hardly wait for all their pointy little heads to explode in unison

If poor little Obambi were to win, the Swift Boat Ads would look like Charmin Commercials. He's NEVER won a "truly no holds barred election against the Republicans" because in BOTH the IL State Senate and the US Senate races – his opponents have either had to drop out or been under a cloud of legal suspicion or been last minute substitutes!! He was pushed into running in '04 because of all the media hype and attention. He should have listened to his innerself and not been so impatient. The old adage all good things come to those who wait - except if you're a generation x or y (or having a mid-life crisis meltdown) comes to mind.

Then Michelle declares that if they don't win this time, they don't have enough commitment to keep trying? Isn't being the President of the United States all about COMMITMENT?? Or are they both so worried that they THEMSELVES will be so easily manipulated and jaded by the system?! Hope is what makes the world go round, but wishes don't make dreams come true. It takes tons of hard work, perservance, dedication and commitment to keep trying until the job is done right... Everyone wants a better brighter tomorrow – some of us are just more focused than others.

HILLARY 2008!!!

Did everybody forget that she is the only one with a REAL plan for the economy? Have any of you check and of the economic indicators recently? Yeah, I thought so.

OBAMA HAS DONE NOTHING IN HIS RECORD IN ELECTED OFFICE. Hillary has been essential in transforming New York. Obama is just a pretty face with no substance. He is the MTV generation candidate. God help us all if experience and real work means nothing to America.

We need someone who can push legislation through, and who can make a difference in (1) The economy (2) Energy Policy (3) basic research funding (4) education (5) Healthcare epidemic

Lets cut to the chase here and see if we can talk Conde Rice into running. She is black and a woman what more do we want? She even has an excellant brain.
ToEric: Clinton SAYS he saw intimidation. That is no indication that he actually saw it. The man has a notorious disregard for the truth. He'd SAY he saw little green men if he thought it would get his nasty wife a vote.

Bill Clinton is pathetic. He's a pathological liar. He'll say anything he has to to get his sorry butt back in the White House. It's time to put the Clinton's and the Bush's behind us and let Obama try to pull this country together again. Hillary may be capable of being President but she is stained by her husband just as Al Gore was.
We need to get on a new path of reconciliation and civility within our own country so we can work together to solve problems. The Clinton's aren't the answer.

This wouldn't matter except come next week and for future contest, THE CLINTONS WILL HAVE ONE EXCUSE AFTER ANOTHER. Seriously, come next week, the Clintons will be complaining about something else. Every election thus far, they have complained about something.

I no longer have respect for him or for her. This is all just silly. Oh and in case anyone missed it, the delegate count is:

Clinton = 37
Obama=37

So, the only thing this election is good for is fund raising. See, it gives her supporters hope and they come out of their wallets. Other than that, the delegate count is TIED!

I am ashamed to have voted for Bill. I won't make the same mistake with his wife. The very wife whom by the way cannot run her campaign without his help. I don't know how anyone expects her to run the country.

This election could turn out to be a competition among some great candidates from either side but I fear we'll have to choose between Clinton and Romney. I'm Independent but have been leaning heavily Democratic this election cycle. However, if Clinton gets the nomination I'll likely vote Republican or third party (if one emerges) based solely on feeling that the Clinton's are running a dirty campaign and she is too polarizing.

I'm dissapointed in the Clinton's blatent attempts to undermine other candidate's campaigns. Have they no shame?

Can't they just run a clean and fair campaign? Will they do anything to get back into the white house?

The Clintons are behaving like the US were a gaucho republic. We just witnessed the wife of an ex-president beign voted to succeed her husband in the presidency. Send the Clintons to Argentina!

Sure, Bill, a union rep was trailing the former President and First Daughter (and all of the accompanying media and aids and security) and trying to strong-arm Clinton supporters. Riiiiiiiiight.

I am so sick of a political dynasty that looks us in the eye and lies to us again and again and again.

Obama should just consider running as an independent, or get into the rigging system and rig his way; my opinion have a joint ticket with Bloomberg and make America proud.

Timing is important! Obama's judgment was off. He should have waited!

The historic nature of a woman becoming President is a monumental step forward for the whole world because of the sheer historical scope of thousands of years of oppression of women throughout the world. It is undeniably far greater than the admittedly unjust and horrific treatment that Blacks have endured.

Obama's choice to run with only two years in the Senate has divided the Dems. It would have been truer to his ideal of unity to have waited a few more years to run.
This is not to take away from the first viable 50% African American candidate. It is his arrogant timing that is off! It is inherently divisive.

Not this time Obama!

Hilliary wins?

Right now, both Senator Obama and Clinton are tied in delegates. In Nevada, Clinton won 13 today and Obama won 12.

Not the decisive victory that the news media would have us believe. This race will get very ugly and very nasty as it turns to SC. Remember, this is the state that destroyed Senator McCain in 2000. I wouldn't be surprised if the Clinton campaign goes for the jugular in SC.

Bill Clinton needs to put his name in the ballot box, cos he is the candidate obviously, Hillary experience is Bill; she is ready from day one, cos Bill will tell her what to do, very simple.

If the Clintons were for the people why were they trying to bounce working Americans? Bill needs to go, him angry makes him look like Rush, a FOOL. News to Bill C. we don't trust you and we know you hit the road to shake more tail.

If they were for people of color and working Americans you wouldn't have tried to undercut their vote!!!!! I hope they don't consider this a victory because its a sham that the Clintons called from the start and a caucus they couldn't control.

Crying Bill Clinton comes to his wifes rescue again. Another broken, disfunctional family trying to fake it again and get to the White House. Loose the caring, loving attitude.

The underestimated obama at iowa, and ran a fair election; when the discover that you cant have a fair election with him, that was the end of election for 2008, till this moment no one can tell what happen in NH; only the Clinton knows. Since then all tactics has been utilize , gender, race, fraud etc.

Knowing that race is a factor here, the introduce it, we all know that a black president in usa is the biggest fairy tale. Obama has enormous courage to embark on this, cos the average black man has not awaken from the 2nd class status from the days of old, they are even scared to vote for him a black man, for no reason other than fear of success, they are talk about MLK, i wonder if they think that he was looking or doing the possible

Why is everyone getting all upset. This is democracy at it's best. Come on, if Obama had won all you people that have been e-mailing ugly things at the Clinton's would have not been sending these ugly e-mails. You all need to give Hillary, Obama and John credit. These people are winner's in my eyes. They are running for the President of the United States of America. We need to give them a big round of applause instead of trying to take away what they have accomplished!!!! Wait until February 5th, that's when it will get exciting. May the best candidate win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

As has been pointed out numerous times: It looks like a pretty cheap shot crying voter intimidation especially when you end up being the eventual winner!

H'mm another backfire of the Clintonista strategy? I sure hope so, and I personally hope they get their karmic justice in the long run!

It figures: Bill has to rescue his wife because he knows she can't do it alone.
So he invents these ridiculous charges of intimidation. Bill, however, will
do the rescuing at such a high price that it will not be worth it in the end.
Hillary will beat Obama, but in a way that will cost her the black vote.
The fact that she won Nevada by getting two-thirds of the Hispanic vote
- despite the fact that the casino workers union is 60% Hispanic - tells
it all. Just wait till the Clintons get to California where we'll see even
more of these anti-Obama tactics. The race card is being played despite
of the so-called truce. Then see the fur fly!

St. Louis, MO-I completely agree with you, but I think the two go hand in hand. I am a white 57 year old female that was raised in NE by the most racist person that I ever met. Now I should be in the female age group that is voting heavily for Hillary, but, I spent my life raising my kids to believe that the color of one's skin is not important. The people that are older than me I feel are not quiet on that level. I think that the fact that Obama is doing so well with people under 45 shows that race is not important to them, but people over 45 have many closet racists. Although I would truly love to see a woman as President, the fact that Hillary was so willing to play the race card, (and the female card,) in the New Hampshire debate convinced me she is not the woman that we want to elect.

For anyone that does not think that Hillary played the race card, think about it. The media had been asking about the race issue for several weeks, but it was not indicated at all in any of the polls. Hillary is one of the most experienced politicians in either primary, and the person running her campaign has even written a book about breaking areas down according to very small special interests. This was a debate, so answers are rehearsed by the politicians. The Clinton campaign knew that they had a good portion of the Black community supporting them, and they new that if she wins the nomination, the Black community would continue to support them against the Republicans. They also knew that White Americans as well as Black Americans were supporting Barack Obama in hugh numbers. They had to put a stop to it before his momentum swung too far and she would loose. They know that there are many older white closet racists in this country, so they went for that vote. This is why she was willing to make the statement deminishing the importance of Martin Luther King, Jr.

I think it will be very interesting to see what she does with the Hispanic vote in the general election if she is forced to speak about the immigration problems in this country. Will she be willing to sacrafice them in order to win, like she was willing to sacrifice the African American vote?

Because having a former President belittling a member of the press isn't intimidating. The Clinton's lied to us while he was in the White House, they are lying to us now so make your own conclusion as to how she will run the White House.

Its all about how much money you got not what people want. sound like already been desided how is the next presedent!!?????????????????????

I am tired of hearing Sen. Clinton say she has done so much for the underdog in her 35 years of service. Where was this service performed and was it on the coat-tails of her husband?

Bill did not whine about rigging an election. He complained about voter intimidation. When everyone agreed 10 months ago to the "at-large" caucuses, all the unions agreed not to back a candidate. The culinary union broke that commitment. That's why the teachers union was angry about it. Understandable.

Now, he witnesses outright intimidation and you all say he is whining?

This is the United States, not the Soviet Union. Geez people. How liberal have you democrats become?

This is just so sad. Hillary and her campaign (especially Bill) have accused the Cuminary Union and Obama's campaign of underhanded tactics since Obama got the Cuminary Union's vote. You have got a former President out campaigning on the behalf of his wife, saying half truths and lies, and no one is calling him on this. Hopefully Edwards drops out of the race because he definitely has no chance of winning the Democratic nomination and only dilutes Obama's support. It's next to the SC Primary, if Obama doesn't win there Super Tuesday will definitely give Hillary the win.

On the Republican side, Romney is looking like the candidate to beat. If Obama loses the race and Bloomberg enters it, then my support goes to Bloomberg. If Bloomberg doesn't enter the race, it is going to a long and dirty campaign season between Romney and Clinton. Romney or Hillary in November 2008 is definitely a "close-my-eyes and hold-my-nose" vote for somebody.

OBAMA in '08!

stopping giving Obama false hope. he is not the best.

It is a sad day, when the ex-president Bill Clinton has to run the cuacus himself-actually taking voters from one caucus site to another; because he said they are being harrassed. So how many times and in different places, did the Hillary vote get placed.?
Enough of the Clintons. Please someone do away with this corruption. This is worse than a high school election. Just have a primary vote. Let every name be on the ballot and then you all just vote for the one person you like. Not given a second, or third choice. This is ludicrus. Obama is honest , we need someone who tells the truth and can honestly change our nation.

The Clinton's know that they were going to win. The Clinton Machine spinned it so that they could be "the comebacks." I hope that democrats will wake-up, before another Republican wins in November.

The Clinton rule: It's only a violation if it's not going in their favor.

Votes are votes- get off the race thing!! If you are the best you will win!

the Clintons are not going to stop at anything, they are going to smite Obama in any way possible before every primary or caucus. He will not win, it all ended with Iowa, they are a very powerful couple and they believe it is Hillary's turn to govern. This is just the beginning, they know al the dirty tricks.
George Bush
Bill Clinton
George Bush
Hillary Clinton
Jeb Bush
Chelsea Clinton
Jenna Bush
Barbara Bush
xxxx Clinton

Bull, bull, bull. The Clintons have shown that they will lie, steal or do anything else to win this election. The shame of the matter is that, should they win, she will lose the general election because none of us vote for them - we do not support the continuation of the Bush legacy of lies (the Clintons are no better).

What nonsense, and coming from a former President.

Here is what I call voter intimidation:

Filing a lawsuit seeking to disenfranchise the entire Culinaries Union.

These people make me literally sick.
I cannot wait to be rid of them.

Republican Party would love to see Sen. Clinton win Democratic Party Primaries so that they will swift-boat ed her to the maximum.

I feel bad for Obama. He is being taken for a ride.
This is Karl Rove political Machine already!

It is time for me to mind my business. This is no election!!

Election rigged. Stop being fooled people!

I think this is not taking Obama anywhere. This election is rigged already. Stop wasting your time people. Since when did the sitting president ever ask the contending presidential candidates what to do with economy? Cann't he figure it out. This is Karl Rove political machine already. Just do your homework people. They want Obama to take Hillary through the process.

They agreed Obama to abandon message of hope and let them be uniform and not to ask about Clinton era papers. This country got hyped with hillary being called "front runner" on the media over five months. They didn't know Obama could win in Iowa and was done clean. Then in newhempshire if anyone followed the digits, it wasn't normal and the way they projected the winner wasn't even a suprise to them with lou dobbs in at midnight.
They pulled racial card on Obama in south carolina to cover up Newhempshire sin and make him go with their tone. The debate in Nevada was skewed to Hillary. The country have been hyped on this election with other candidates being intimidated with their religions.
Now can anybody convince me this election is clean?
We all were here in America in 2000 and 2004.
Do your dot connection people!

Bill's worried the election was rigged when his wife won in the end?

Oh the irony....

Perhaps the Clintons could try telling us why we should vote for Hillary instead of against Obama!

Hello? And what happen in NH Primary? The election was systematically rigged in favor of Sen. Clinton.

LOL CNN again getting a little biased. "Potentially troubling news in Clinton's Nevada win" ?? What's troubling is CNN's spin. Isn't Clinton winning in Nevada troubling for Obama??? nah. Obama has lost the last two, is that troubling? nah.

Obama should just go for the vice presidency.They would make a great combination.

Bill, how about election rigged. Who programs and compute those machine. Can someone tell me if there is democracy in America? Stop fooling us Bill.

CNN:

We realize you're going to milk this race issue for all it's worth. HOWEVER, can you also dedicate as much time to the other emerging gap that's turning out to be just as critical to this election?

We hear very little about the AGE gap that is becoming a huge story in the Democratic primaries. There is a significant schism developing between those under 45 and those over 45.

It may not make for a story that's as provacative as talking about race or gender, but it's a story that deserves attention.

Yeah, voter intimidation so that we don't focus on Election rigged....

I THINK THERE IS A RACIAL SHADE TO THIS ELECTIONS. PLS CNN STOP BEING BIAS TO GIVING OBAMA FALSE HOPE.

Can this Family please stop whining? Geeze.

Oh, Canada.
