How many Obama posters here remember Election 2000, where Gore won the popular vote but Bush won the most delegates? How many of you were outraged because the delegates counted for more than the voice of the people? Now you have changed your mind about that, since it suits your candidate? Only because of this messed up political system do delegates count more than the popular vote. Since Florida has no delegates that will count, I guess the popular vote there means nothing? Those 1.5 million people who voted were just pissing in the wind? I swear, 99% of the Obama supporters here are so ill-educated, they just follow out of blind faith that this man who has been a US Senator for 3 years, 2 of which years he's been campaining for president, can lead this nation. Even Lou Dobbs said last night, in the case of a national/foreign crisis, can a community organizer from inner-city Chicago lead us? January 30, 2008 8:51 am ET

I was once going to vote for her but after the tactics used by her backers, campaign staff and husband, so far in this campaign, I've changed my vote to Obama. You shouldn't change the rules midstream. This isn't the first she has tried and I'm sure it won't be the last. Seems there was campaigning going on inside Florida before the vote but as usual, Hilary and her campaign staff had nothing to do with it. Now we're going to see her lobby to change the rules about seating the delegates. Win at all cost, in this primary, and worry about the rest later seems to be her motto. I really question her ethics. At least Obama seems to be trying hard to run an ethical campaign. Can't say I believe her take on the "snub" by Obama either. Looked to me like he was looking down at someone who was speaking to him just as he has said. Can we really believe anything she says? Go Obama 2008!

There is a lot of hope riding on Obama and the guy is a decent guy. I dont care about his slumlord partner and that he admitted he knew the guy was a con artist and did business with him anyway. I think most people would take a house $300,000 less than the value if they could as long as it was legal. The problem is experience. Hillary understands that you theorize what to do and then you try it. If it fails, analyze it and try again. I think Obama is a good guy but is going to let a lot of people down as president. He will be in for a major shock which Hillary is already well aware of the presidential pitfalls. She has lived with a president for 8 years and she knows what she is in for. She knows what it will take and has tried some heavy duty policy changes even before being a senator. She has talked changed, she has lived it.

My understanding was that Independents or anyone else not registered as Dem or Rep could declare the party (Dem or Rep) they wished to vote for. That would mean that McCain still could have had a large number of Independents voting for him. If true, your article is misleading about McCain's support among only Republicans.

To say that Florda voters didn't know Obama is rediculous. The media has been covering him non-stop, so unless people haven't turned on their TV in a month they know who he is and his stands. Furthur more, to say the votes of over 1 million Floridians "don't count" is an insult to every voter in this country. Finally, when is the media going to treat Obama like a candidate?

I would have never said this but Mr. Colmes on Hannity and Colmes on Fox gives a realistic picture of the race rather than playing with some sound bites and not explaining the complete speech.

INTEGRITY, TRUST AND FAIR GAME MATTERS.
Its so clear Hillary plays by the rules only when it favours her. Or is it a question of whatever it takes to win.

Stop crying over Florida and Michigan. There are 40+ more states to be won.

I live in Florida and I watched an Obama ad before the polls closed here. I already know what they will say...it's a national ad campaign we can't control where they play our ads.......we arent stupid folks. Stop playing the role of victim and own up to the fact that you are just as much an underhanded politician as everyone else running for president. The difference is you have nothing in your record to support your rhetoric.

When she signed on to not campaign in Florida six months ago, Hillary thought that Florida wouldn't be a factor. With Obama running well against her, Hillary is getting scared. I see the results in Florida that 50% of the voters will never vote for her. With McCain winning tonight fairly, there is noway that Hillary could beat him with just the Democratic Base. Obama is the only Democrat that can get votes from both sides and Independents. Most importantly, unite Americans for change and hope to stop all this anger.

No commercials, no secret fundraisers, no hedging his bets? Maybe that's why he won a number of the smaller counties up in the panhandle (including the aptly named "Union County").

An Obama convention would consist of speeches about coming together with noone hitting McCain or Bush, poor debate performances while millions watch, flowers and love beads, ads about his extremely liberal record that will turn off any independent that thought twice about voting for him.
