If you check out the page ticker page, it is geared toward Obama. There are several states that haven't been called for Hilary even though there are 30% or the vote in. Come on CNN be a little more unbiased. I'm not a Hilary fan, but I would like to see a fair call.

Rene   February 5th, 2008 9:35 pm ET

Please show the NY numbers on the tube! For some reason you are not showing that state for Democrats yet show Hillary is the projected winner!

Mika   February 5th, 2008 9:35 pm ET

Good job Hillary and the people of NY and the other smart democrats out there!!!

Anyway, this CNN live coverage (particularly the CNN political analysts) always mention Obama all the time, about how can he win, what will he do to win etc. etc. and not mentioning how Clinton is winning. Very dissappointing.

Barrister…if you're criticizing Obama fans for joking they'd vote for mccain if he won-him being a "hardline pro-war conservative", maybe you should remember that hillary voted for the war in Iraq and has said she woudln't change that, even in retrospect. SHE IS PRO-WAR!!!

kathymac   February 5th, 2008 9:33 pm ET

Congrats Hillary
Will you allow this one to be posted, or is that to over the top for Hillary

John Smith   February 5th, 2008 9:32 pm ET

Did MO choose Kerry in the last primary? Oops!!

Dem08   February 5th, 2008 9:31 pm ET

Martin, that comment is not accurate nor fair. Ann Coulter is a , well I can not say.

She was just trying to create chaos as always, typical republican tactic. Her comments have nothing to do with Clinton and you know better.

polivox   February 5th, 2008 9:28 pm ET

For all of you uninformed people that continue to refer to New York as Hillary's home state, you would benefit from a little fact checking.

Arkansas is widely viewed as Hillary's home state. It is the state her husband led as Governor, where they lived, had a child, and she practiced law. New York is her adopted state and only their home as recently as 8 years ago.

On the flip side, Illionis is where Obama was raised and spent most of his life, and Hillary gave him a run for his money.

Michael Lazovich   February 5th, 2008 9:28 pm ET

Congratulations Hillary Clinton and keep up the great success

Martin   February 5th, 2008 9:27 pm ET

Congratulations to everyone who voted for Hillary and voting for another 8 years of the same crap that America and the world has been suffering under Bush. Way to go!

Even Ann Coulter says she backs Hillary over McCain which means she's somewhere to the RIGHT of John McCain. Maybe if Hillary supporters had pulled their heads out of their posteriors they might have noticed.

Dem08   February 5th, 2008 9:26 pm ET

FOX news does have better coverage. I never thought I would say that. CNN, be big and post my post.

FX reporting that Clinton is doing much better than expected and polls are showing that late deciders are going with Clinton…

She is winning MO. MO has chosen the winner in the last 26 Presidential elections.

C'mon CNN, lets do better……I have a little faith left in you. If Clinton wins, give her credit. Don't dismiss the voters like you did in Flordia.

Fair & Balanced   February 5th, 2008 9:23 pm ET

Barrister I agree they are continuing to downplay her wins!

vfin   February 5th, 2008 9:23 pm ET

shame on cnn …. news should be reported without bias , your as bad as fox .

Barrister   February 5th, 2008 9:23 pm ET

Very telling. Obama supporters are sore losers, declaring that if Hillary wins they will abandon the Democratic party and vote McCain, a pro-war hard line Conservative.

That tells you everything you need to know about Obama supporters.

GoDucks   February 5th, 2008 9:23 pm ET

Obama is destined to be VP…

sean cardi   February 5th, 2008 9:23 pm ET

why are we looking at exit polls?
they are not accurate!
i like clinton but please, stop calling the races before they are counted thats what lost the 2000 elections!!!

Linda Rubiano   February 5th, 2008 9:22 pm ET

HOW DOES CNN PREDICT CLINTON THE WINNER IN NY WHEN YOU ARE NOT EVEN SHOWING THE VOTES ON TV NOR HAS NY REPORTED ALL THEIR VOTES???? WHAT KIND UNBIASED MEDIA DO WE HAVE IN AMERICA??

Barrister   February 5th, 2008 9:20 pm ET

CNN continues to downplay Hillary's victory. Hillary won big in New York. Hillary is winning BIG in Missouri. Hillary is winning BIG in Oklahoma. Where are all those big predictions by CNN and MSNBC that Obama was going to win? Where's all that tough talk from CNN (Obama News Network) on Obama pulling even with Hillary nationwide?

The nation is speaking. Hillary is our choice. And we choose Hillary over CNN.

DogDave   February 5th, 2008 9:19 pm ET

If clinton wins the nomination im voting for mccain

Chad   February 5th, 2008 9:19 pm ET

Norvef: NY is not Hillary's home state. She is a carpet bagging opportunist who bought a house there in 2000 just before she ran for the Senate, remember? She's from Arkansas or Illinois or something. Actually, Washington DC is more like it.

Pat   February 5th, 2008 9:18 pm ET

With all the media bias against Mrs. Clinton, she keeps going.

AMS   February 5th, 2008 9:16 pm ET

Great job Hillary!!

Clinton/Obama 2008!!!!!!!!!

NORVEF   February 5th, 2008 9:14 pm ET

CONGRATULATIONS TO SEN. HILLARY CLINTON.

OBAMA 08′

YES WE CAN!

kathymac   February 5th, 2008 9:14 pm ET

Adam you are exactly correct I was going to say the exact thing about the proportional delegates but did not because thought maybe it was my imagination, Thanks for again pointing out how bias the press is

Louise   February 5th, 2008 9:14 pm ET

Well done Hillary…bringing home your home state IN SPITE of the most obvious media bias against you.

Hillary '08!!!!!

yomama   February 5th, 2008 9:14 pm ET

means not a whole lot and was predicted.

There is no nail in any coffin - yet. This is a close race on the Dem side.

the point about the 'near 50 percent' in Illinois is irrelevant.

I am sure Obama took a decent percent in NY even though HIllsie is the senator there.

All the momentum is on Obama's side, BUT, and it's a big but, the Clinton Machinery is well-oiled and it'll be tough to overcome that without, say, 3 weeks more campaign time.

Good thing for HIllsie that they shut up Bill, as he was doing damage to her. Hopefully, if she is the candidate, they tell him to watch himself, or they could see themselves trailing McCain.

Dee   February 5th, 2008 9:13 pm ET

So what that she won NY? Yet the Obama surge forced her to actually have to campaign in her own state. How is this news that she won her own state. Go Obama, yes we can!

David Snider   February 5th, 2008 9:12 pm ET

she was 80-20% now its 55-45

Deb   February 5th, 2008 9:11 pm ET

You go girl!!!!

Kevin   February 5th, 2008 9:11 pm ET

Why is CNN projecting winners when less than 1/4 of the precincts have reported anything?

kathymac   February 5th, 2008 9:11 pm ET

Frankly, I cannot understand how Hillary can win any state campaigning against Obama and the entire media.

I have never seen the press so in love with a candidate as they are with Obama.

Terry skinner   February 5th, 2008 9:11 pm ET

You go grl,orSen Clinton i am so happy god bless

Jose Card - Independent   February 5th, 2008 9:10 pm ET

If you read Alan Greenspan's new book, he said that Senior Bush's economy had an impressive 4.1% of growth after coming out of a recession.

Bill rode the prosperity wave at the end of the cold war. All around Earth, people were optimistic and creative and the economy expanded with it. If anything, Bill sliced our defense budget big time, which saved lots of budget and also did great damage to our national security. But then he gave China our satellite and missile guidance technologies before he signed the most favorable trade agreement for China in Nov., 1999 just before he left office. He knew what that trade agreement would do to our economy as he and Hillary planned to return for his third term after the damage is done. It's always easier to pander for votes when people are suffering.

Bill first admitted and then retracted that Sudan offered to get Osama bin Laden for us, but he didn't know what to do. Had Bill done his job, we wouldn't be in Iraq and we wouldn't have had 9-11.
It beats me why New York elected Hillary.
It beats me why people even consider Hillary/Bill for his third term.

Barrister   February 5th, 2008 9:10 pm ET

CNN just doesn't want to say Hillary is winning. CNN is pro-Obama and its literally making Wolf Blitzer sick to have to report that across the United States, voters are going for Hillary.

This is Hillary's night. No matter what CNN refuses to say. Hillary is up 30 points in Missouri and Wolf Blitzer won't call the state for Hillary.

This is unreal.

Adam   February 5th, 2008 9:09 pm ET

OK Wolf,

We are watching you post the results and we Notice that everytime Clinton Wins a state you ever so remind us that its not quite a win as the democrats award the delegates proportionally. You havent been adding the disclaimer to the Obama wins

Casey   February 5th, 2008 9:08 pm ET

They sure didn't hesitate to have the trumpet for Delaware victory. I'm sure this comment will be sent into Eternal Moderation also.

Tom   February 5th, 2008 9:08 pm ET

CNN should STOP spinning everything for Hillary. She is only winning the states she is supposed to win. MA would be big ? She polled with 12- 20 in front, so no surprise there. Obama is outperforming all polls until now.

Jarred Vargus CA   February 5th, 2008 9:05 pm ET

Wow what a suprise, Hillary wins her state! I have to say I did not see this one coming!

jershom   February 5th, 2008 9:04 pm ET

did you notice Obama and Clinton's gap in Illinois? 56% to 42% Sounds like almost 50% of voters in Obama's homeland is against him huh????

Joe   February 5th, 2008 9:04 pm ET

What a surprise!

EK   February 5th, 2008 9:03 pm ET

SWEEEEET!!!!!!!!!

THE NAIL IN THE COFFIN!!!!!!!!!!

Max Power, Springfeild   February 5th, 2008 9:03 pm ET

2% reporting

NORVEF   February 5th, 2008 9:01 pm ET

nothing new!

Nik T, Houston, TX   February 5th, 2008 9:01 pm ET
