This is quite sad to hear all these stories about the Asians and Latinos. I hope everyone sees them for who they really are. It is not cute to say you hate people because of their race. America was founded on the priciple of hosting many people from many countries.

It is no surprise they would vote like this when most of them come over and instead of integrating with other Americans they try to create little China towns and little Hispanic towns.

At least the blacks have earned their place in history here. They help build this country. As Condeleeza Rice stated " blacks and whites arrived at the same time; blacks were just enslaved."

You can't be serious. You actually want to vote for "Billary"???? Did you not learn anything from the first Clinton presidency?

I'm an independent who'll probably vote for McCain regardless of which candidate the Democrats nominate, but I have taken some interest in Obama's candidacy because for better or worse, US Presidential elections seem to hinge to a large extent on charisma, and he's the more charismatic of the two Democratic candidates.

I think Hillary will win the Democratic nomination, but I doubt that Obama will be her VP. That will probably ruin the Democrats' chances in November because I think Obama's a large reason for the larger voter turnout that Democrat's are seeing. I doubt the young voters who are coming out in support of Obama, will also show up to vote for Clinton in November unless Obama is on the ticket.

I cannot believe the hatred, bigotry, and racism that is so heavily laden in these comments. Its not about a black america or a white america.. Its about choosing the best candidate who will represent us as ONE great nation. The candidate that will change America for the better. Its 2008 people! Lets show the world what a great country we are and put away all of that bitter cynicism that will only continue to divide us. I support Barack Obama because I believe he is fresh, ethical, and a uniter. I don't hate Hillary but I think the only reason she does well in the low income brackets is because all those people hear is "free this, free that, free everything". She borders dangerously close to socialism which is a scary concept. Our nation was built on hard working individuals who worked hard for everything they had. It wasn't handed to them then and it shouldn't be handed out now. America, don't be fooled by the "Everything is included" gimmick. Nothing is ever free.

YES WE CAN! YES WE CAN! YES WE CAN!

OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT 2008

Congaratulationsssssssssssssssssssssss Senador Clinton….!

Canada is behind you…….:) all the way to the WHITE HOUSE.

Now, for those who understimate this AMAZING woman, here is the proof that people really want change but not the cain of you take out of a poetry book, the change she ofers is real with facts. HILLARY CLINTON has been firm and clear in his issues of course she is not perfect and for those who don't let go the fact that she vote in favour of the inspection in Irak, it is complitly different of beeing in favour, what she did was on behalf of your country thouhg decition but at leats she did it and not vote abbsent like MR OBAMA. whom let this oppurtunity tho stand up against it but choose not to until now that he wants your vote sais that he can figth whit this argument in his favour wake up people. your country need direction with expirience, people need health care, your economy is going donw don;t you see an voting for somebody whose goint to figth with nice speaches which by the way he dosen;t even write himself but somebody else, if not even capable to do that DO YOUTHINK HE IS GOING TO BE ABLE TO RUN A COUNTRY ? very sad if you do

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

HILLARY R. CLINTON it is time a woman shape the course of History.

As an overseas observer, I am not surprised that Americans have fallen for the emptiness of Barack Obama's speeches, and been swayed by the one sided reporting of CNN and the rest of the media. A small example, Obama is endorsed by Ted and Carolyn Kennedy (big whoop) and it is widely reported, Hillary gets the endorsement of practically all the other Kennedy's and I had to read it in the Int. section of my newspaper a few days later. All the great Black leaders that endorse her are not mentioned, etc. etc. It is so sad. Just like how they ignored Mike Huckabee shamefully during the debate. If they give the people a chance to hear all sides and see all sides, instead of deciding the election in the studio, maybe the people would get to make a more informed decision instead of riding waves and sending America and the rest of the world into another 4 years of an inept inexperienced president that is all fluff.
The republicans will eat Barack alive, they are practically salivating. He has no substance. By the end of the first debate, the vultures will be picking his bones of what is left. Spewing hope and change and not much else will not help him then.
America do the right thing, don't fall into the republican trap.

American people put to much emphasis on polls and endorsements. AWAKE UP AMERICA: look at the candidate voting record, experiences and platform of the issues facing Americans. Obama came up 1st. on the Iraq War, because he stated at a ANTI-WAR rally in Illinois in 2002 , that he wasn't against war just dumb wars. What else would you say at an ANTI-WAR rally? It helped to get him in the Senate. But at the 2004 Democratic convention he supported Kerry and Edwards, who voted for the War. Both incidences his position was taken to help no one but himself. Hillary has maintained the same position, whether it is about the Iraq War, health care , economy, immigration or policies in general. OBAMA SELLS PLATITUDES, NOT POLICY> GOOOOOOO! HILLARY!

What's going to happen when Mccain splits the Hispanic vote. Hillary's doomed. Hillary catered to the Hispanic vote in Vegas but with Romney out in the fall McCain will crush her.

WATCH OUT THE STOCK!!

Arrogant earlier projected win on Monday make DOW drop 370 point, Today is a new day with Confidence in Clinton.

Men and blacks vote for Obama but the former will transition to the GOP when Hillary gets the Democratic nomination. So sad but they are all sore losers and can't look beyond the race and gender to see that the issues are what's important. So sad for this country that we will have another republican that will spin the economy out of control because of his misguided opinion that the Iraq war can be won.

Myself and several friends are eagerly waiting to cast our votes for Hillary next week in the Virginia primary….

BTW, we are all college educated, mixed races and genders, and in our late thirties!

Sorry Obama but your majority in the black states will not overcome the intelligent voter that looks for more than one issue like race. Oh well, you can always look for Obama on Oprahs show.

Anthony:

I am Asian, and I will vote for Hillary because I value her experience over BS.
Shame on you by calling Asians racist.

It is amazing to see how Hillary won this super Tuesday contest. After this huge wave of endorsements to Obama and the huge coverage that Obama received in CNN, in the last week every time I tuned CNN they were talking about Obama surge, so it is impressive how she won in popular vote by a considerable margin and in delgates. She hold herself with strenght and grace. I do not see that story being said in CNN at all. It is interesting to see how Fox News and MSNBC are declaring her as the winner and in CNN all I can see is a front page with Obama picture, undermining the real result of this contest, that was, Hillary's triumph. But after all I realized and have a strong conviction that Hillary is the best candidate by far. Definitely in my opinion CNN is sided with Obama.

I am appalled at how anyone can equate winning more states to winning more votes.
And how Rhode Island has the same number of Senators as California. Talk about unequal representation for the people of California and other large population states.

Foreign perspective:

Bill Clinton restored US reputation during his reign. The 8 years he was in office, US was very much respected and well liked in almost every region of the world. Bill was never a laughing stock even during his scandal. Americans (thanks to the Republicans) were however laughed at by the world at that time because we could not understand why his scandal was such a big deal. AFAIK, Bill Clinton left his presidency with a very strong job approval rating as well as very sound economic foundation for the US, Then Americans became silly ( thanks to Al Gore's refusal of letting Bill help him campaigning) and voted Bush in to start the spiral down to hell.

I have noticed that a lot of people here said they had enough of Bush - Clinton -Bush and did not want another Clinton again. The 1st Bush failed badly and yet Americans put the 2nd Bush through 2 terms of presidency despite a moron he is. Now, the 1st Clinton did a lot of good to the US, why couldn't the Americans now give the 2nd Clinton a chance?

I myself think Obama is a good potential candidate and (me having been born in Indonesia as well), I would be happy to see him lead the US. However, I don't think he is mature enough yet. The US economy is now in a bad shape. The US global reputation has also deteriorated so much under Bush. What I think the US need now is someone who can do thing to clean up the mess and that someone is Hillary because besides being intelligent, she will also have a support of Bill.

If I were a Democratic party leader, I would indeed support Hillary now and let Obama come in 4 or 8 years from now.

I know tha this will never see the light but I will post it anyway…

I am doing fine…

Nevertheless, I am pissed that the media has made our country a place where racism is alive and well…

It is like a third world country where a few that have bought all the free press and turned it into a dictatorship owed by a fraction of the country.

Swaying and moving the racist hordes to the feeding trough to eat subtly of their racists garbage digest and crap racist turds in the form of supposed racist Latinos, and Asians that will not vote for a person based on their color.

It wasn’t long ago that Asians and Mexicans were no more than fodder just like the coloreds…

The Media has taken blacks and subtly demonized them with the painting of a black face on all that is wrong in America…from Michael Vick, Gary Bonds, OJ Simpson, Kobe Bryant, Track Stars, Politicians, Rodney King.

This has all been orchestrated by privately owned media that continues to stir the Racism stew.

This thing is stewed within the bowels of The American Prison system which spills out into the streets with the gangs. The gangs take it to the schools…The children take it home…

The media tells the Latino parents that the blacks are beating up the Latinos and they buy into it…

Its too sad, but many of our black youth are too busy watching some young idiot with a fist full of one dollar bills and a mouth full of gold disrespect their mothers, sisters, and grandmothers to see that they are being used to further the cause of racial divide.

This is where the media gets heavily involved pitting blacks against browns and the result makes a good news story in every little community.

Wake up America…

This is the subtle work of fanatics that make their racism palatable…the “Invisible Empire removed their hoods and put on suit and ties and walked into our board rooms just like they said they would.

They have made their racism a thing of minorities turning against each other, which is nothing new…We as a country have made a living doing that…In every war that we are involved in, we turn the people against each other.

Especially now…Dividing the Kurds against the Sunnis, against the Shiites, and whom ever does not agree with our agenda we demonize…

They had a racist Latino reporter from the Mexican station on Telemundo" owned by the "The big cooperate" conglomeration media groups tell Latinos” I am sorry but Latinos will never vote for a black man" on main stream television on the day of the California primary.

What kind of racist crap is that?

I have not heard one word about the voting abnormalities that others and I experienced yesterday…

What happened to the Ballots in California?

This is reminiscent of the Florida fiasco that got us into such terrible shape today…

Pissed in California

Hillary won in spite of all the negative attacks and biased coverage by CNN. She won almost all the big states - more importantly she won in more states that they both campaigned - who cares about the little states and caucuses which Obama won because he was the only won campaigning. When the final numbers come in, it will show democrats by a huge margin (over a million voters?) supported Hillary than Obama who is a fine man but needs to gain experience and wait his turn.

Listen to what you said with a twist. It applies to Obama, too. He has no substance.

"I was really disappointed with Obama's win and I wish blacks would stop voting for him just because he is black. So what happens if there are two black candidates? How will they choose then? Will they finally look at candidates issues or who will be the blackest of them all? I bet people who voted for Obama did not follow his policies [as if there is any] but his fame and wife [who attacks Clintons, too]. All this being said by a black myself."

It is not hard to see that older and wiser people vote for Clinton and younger, less experienced peopel vote for hot air. Did people forget how Bush ran a campaign of "Change" in 2000? Look where it got us. Wake up.

Californians voted with their brains… unlike Illinois' sheep who flocked to the polls with dazed expressions on their faces chanting "Obama, He is from Illinois, so I will vote for him"….without ever realizing that he is supremely UNQUALIFIED to be President.

It is amazing to see how Hillary won this super Tuesday contest. After this huge wave of endorsements to Obama and the huge coverage that Obama received in CNN, in the last week every time I tuned CNN they were talking about Obama surge, so it is impressive how she won in popular vote by a considerable margin and in delgates. She hold herself with strenght and grace. I do not see that story being said in CNN at all. It is interesting to see how Fox News and MSNBC are declaring her as the winner and in CNN all I can see is a front page with Obama picture, undermining the real result of this contest, that was, Hillary's triumph. But after all I realized and have a strong convition that Hillary is the best candidate by far. Definitely in my opinion CNN is sided with Obama.

New york and California. coast to coast most populated area voted for Hillary. Disregard these plain field states across the nation. these ghost states are haters!!!!!!!!!

I saw one comment here that the voters "starting to realize" Obama is blowing hot air. I don't agree with that.
It is just amazing to me how a man with very little experience could get as much support as he did just because he is using the SAME words as Bush did before he got elected…we are United.
Same words just a different man. Even thought Obama is a great speaker, I do not have the confidence in him as I have Hillary. It’s amazing to me how a person can talk Americans into just about anything, without anybody really knowing much about the person.
To me that said a lot more about the people voting, than it said about him.
Our country is in a critical position at the moment and we simply cannot afford for our president to learn as he goes..not this time.

- Hillary we need you right now.

Both Latinos and Asians would vote for one of their own if they had a chance to become governor of California or president of the United States, and they agreed with that person on the issues as well (see New Mexico and Richardson).

Everyone knows how racist asians and hispanics are against blacks, EVERYONE!

well, now i am voting republican.

Rock on

First of all, it bothers me is that there are peoplel who did not finish high school got to vote (in elections). Sorry but I don't like to put our faith in high school dropouts.

That being said.

I was really disappointed with Hilary's win and I wish women would stop voting for her just because she is female. So what happens if there are two female candidates? How will they choose then? Will they finally look at candidates issues or who will be the prettiest of them all? I bet people who voted for Hilary did not follow her policies but her fame and husband. All this being said by a female myself.

Also, Latinos and Blacks have always had a silly grudge… and Asians.. well I'm not sure because I'm Asian myself and I can never vote for Hilary. Don't know what happened in CA with Asian voters.

Still, let's keep on fighting Obama supporters!
Yes we can!
Obama 08!

I know that many out there are thinking that there might end up being a super-ticket for the Democrats this year (Clinton/Obama). But I was wondering what people think about the possibility of a different ticket if Obama doesn't get the Democratic endorsement. John McCain in a previous presidential election stated that he wouldn't rule out a Democrat as a running mate. The best ticket and best possiblity for this country to run and be profitable again is to have a McCain/Obama ticket. Crossing party lines generally isn't allowed, but why the heck not. The two candidates are a like is many ways just in different parties. I am a registered Democrat but would love to see a different type of politician than what we have seen in the White House for the last 20 years.

Clinton won with the Caucasian vote and Latino voters who are not about to let Louis Farrahkan take over this country.

McCain won with the establishment making sure he gets the nod due to being a government regular for the past several years and who is to say he is not arm in arm with the neo-cons. He knows how his bread gets buttered!

She won California because America was tired of the BS the media played by Glorifying Senator Obama and neglecting Senator Clinton and Senator Edwards.
The media continues to spin bias and subjective reports and opinions that favor Senator Obama. Watch when the next report from the Center for Media and Public Affairs are disclosed and the results are similar or worst than prior reports. The media will never learn…and all this because Senator Clinton and her staff won't give the reporters interviews or tv spots that favor the media, instead the media decides to punish Senator Clinton with bias and subjective opinions to glorify Senator Obama.
I wonder if Senator Obama has an idea of what his worth really is… after the media decides to treat him like YESTERDAY'S NEWS.

Some Obama supporters said that the supports of Latinos and Asians for Hillary are not great. But can I ask you more than 80% blacks vote for Obama great?

For all those going on anout Obama's 14 states - Jesse jackson won 10 - and look where it got him. Winning states with small delegate numbers does not win the presidency. Winning the big 7 does - if Clinton takes Teax and Ohio Obam can wave goodbye to the election.

GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO HILLARYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY
HOPEFULLY AMERICA CONTINUES TO WAKE UP

Tara February 6, 2008 2:23 am ET

It is so funny when Obama supporters keep threatening Democrats by saying "I am a hardcore Democrat or I am a Democrat for whole life, but I will vote Republican if Hillary wins the nomination …"

It's because they probably are Republicans tara!!

Laura in Seattle, California people don't know Obama, right, that's why it is not his time, he needs to practice for several years. Jamie, your concept of devider is just same with Obama's, Hillary showed her ability to unite for over 35 yearse, that is the reason why she won in California. Glenn, Obama won by caucus, Hillary won by primary, voter's real voices. Mike, I think you switched the name. Excuse me Bob, Clinton's win in California is a huge meaningful victory. I love America, I love Hillary Clinton, I want see her on TV rest of my life. Thank you, all of big States, you did a great job, I am proud of you.

I was not suprised at the results in California. Asians and Latinos made the difference for Hillary. Their support appears to have been influnced by defernce towards Clinton family as well as some kind viisceral racialist feelings among the Asians> Given time these could have been overecome. Talking to Asians particularrly Asians from the Indian sub-continent I got the feeling that the first generation immigrants are not aware of the history of this great nation and competitive consumerism seem to dominate their lives. This will change as the younger generation go through the educational process. I was so impressed with the idealism of the youth both black and white that I am left with a clear feeling the best of America is yet to come.

I have said before. I like Obama, I think he will make a great President one day if he sticks to his convictions and does not become bitter if he loses the nomination to Clinton.

There could very well be a Clinton/Obama ticket, but I don't want to predict it will happen either.

Hillary Clinton for President of The United States of America 2008!!

voting in blocks based on age, gender, asian, latino, and black, instead of issues proves predjudice and bigotry is alive and well.

Thank you both "drive the nation" and especially "citizen" — your illuminating and non-inflammatory views are just what our country needs.

I would like to ask the people who support Obama why they choose Obama over Clinton:

1) Because he is fresh - give me a break. I'm totally fresh. are you going to vote for me?
2) Because he wants to change - another break. He only say the word "change", but he didn't do anything to justify that.
3) Because he has integrity - are you sure about that? everybody knows or should know how politics works.

Again, ask yourself why are voting for that candidate. We want a candidate who has the ability, the experience, inteligence and strong enough to bring the country back to the right track. I understand that people are sick of Bush administration. But let us not over correcting it.

God bless America!

Why do people complain about our Latino vote? It seems like every time there is an election or primary people kinda forget the purpose of it. We choose who we think it's best for our country, and so far it's been clear who does the "AMERICAN CITIZENS" want to run for president on the Democratic Party. I've read a few reviews here and there and i can't believe how " THE AMERICAN PEOPLE" talk or think about the Latino vote just because WE believe that Hillary has a better chance to rebuild the "BUSH MESS", and this goes way beyond race and gender. It's time to open your eyes people, a woman has the exact same capabilities as a man does to achieve any goal, besides I do not support Hillary because she is a woman, i support her because i believe on her resume and i believe she is a person that can rebuild this country and make it prosper once more. So please respect our vote, i think i read someone saying if the Latinos that voted were legal…What kind of comment is that, have some respect please. Thank You and GOD BLESS!

Hillary will be roasted in the general election!

lol she won the latino vote who are historically racist against black and also enjoyed absentee ballots..

look at the recent vote count….Obama has pulled close to her in California

OBAMA won majority of the states located in the South which play a decisive role in the general elections.

OBAMA 08…YES WE CAN!

It will be very interesting to id the background of the people writing this comments…..their background could be very much related to some of the comments……………………well, I only have to say that is about choosing the the best person for the job…………….and not about cultures.

Ray February 6, 2008 1:28 am ET

"The race, ethnicity and gender talk on this forum disturbs me. So does the fact that prejudice really might have influenced large numbers of voters. I'm not sure how Democrats can claim the high ground on progressive values with this kind of bigotry in play.

And to the media (this includes you, CNN), shame on you for slicing and dicing the demographics just to make it an issue. Latinos voted for X, blacks voted for Y, women voted for Z. How is it that we've returned to a place where people can be tabulated in such a way and not be offended. We are not widgets to be inventoried."

The race and gender talk disturbs me also. However, the demographics among the voters have always been "sliced and diced" this way.

It's just that in the past, it's been an white man against another white man, so the individual demographic groups were not represented and therfore could not be chosen on this basis.

Did someone die in CNN last night? The mood was so subdued.

She won with the same demographics as Mccain. What about the rest of the country. Everyone knows McCain is an Undercover dem. How She going to beat him fighting over the same people. We need a Uniter!!!!Some one who can win the Red states, McCain and Clinton got the blue don't forget Obama one some blue ones two.) Obama is not through, He's just getting started, Early voting helped Clinton, people who didn't have enough sense to weigh it all, before they could see the light. I bet alot are sick that they didn't wait. Watch out hill, Obama is hot on your trail!!!! Why are your supporters forgetting that you were supposed to sweep this nomination? Your still crying to stay ahead, sorry I meant trying.!!!!!

People will not let the media, the Oprah's, the Kennedy's or whoever else Obama's people bring out decide for them their vote. If it is a speech that inspires you then vote for the speech writer. It's time for the news media to start being fair and stop promoting their candidate

I THINK WITH AL THE STUMP SPEECHES GIVEN BY OBAMA, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN GOOD IF HE CONTESTED FOR THE PRESIDENCY OF KENYA AS I SURE DO BELEIVE HE WILL BRING A LOT OF GOOD TO THE COUNTRY OF HIS ORIGIN WHO BY THE WAY NEEDS HIM MORE THAN AMERICA DOES

Asians and Hispanics are blatantly racist towards blacks, this is clear. They will not vote for a black, or half-black person no matter how qualified they are, and they routinely kiss up to whites.

DUSACRE,

PLEASE SPEAK FOR YOURSELF AND DONT USE THE WORD ALL AMERICANS. I DO NOT SHARE YOUR MISCHEVIOUS ANALYSIS

Mary Smith -"Clinton divides the country because she went after the Latino vote?

Let's see, Obama went after the black vote - all over America. Ask campaign volunteers in South Carolina who they were instructed to 'go after'. Yes you guessed it - the 'black' voters.

Seems to tme, that every time 'good news' or 'results' come to the Clinton camp, some CNN pundits, and thousands of pro-Obamas, are the first to whine, 'cry', etc about what a 'divider' Clinton is, or how 'polarizing' she is.

But whenever Obama's camp does anything - good or bad - pro-Obamans and some CNN pundits are fist to shout that it's 'proof' that Americans 'love' the 'change bandwagon' or how meaningful his by-now-redundant schpiel is to everyone, except those who aren't 'yet' on the good old bandwagon.

If Obama takes the nomination, not only will the Democratic party be divided between blacks and whites, but it will be between 'haves and have nots' as well. Obama's support, acc. to CNN at least, comes mainly from those making over $100K a year…and in major cities. Clinton gains most of her support from those earning less than $100K and in sub-urban and rural areas.

If Clinton takes the nomination, she'll have the backing of many of the 'have nots' regardless of race, and the majority of 'white' women, according to Bill Schneider's read on exit polls at least.

Now, if Bill's right in both cases - who's the real divider here? I'd say Obama, or a large portion of his 'supporters', win that one, hands down.

Go Hillary! Obama is all talk—no action. I live in Illinois and HE HAS DONE NOTHING FOR OUR STATE DURING HIS TENURE AS SENATOR. Talk is cheap but in Illinois his grandeous ideas have not amounted to anything tangible. He side stepped the issues in Illinois by voting "present" in many critical state issues. He has great fluff, BUT LACKS ANY SUBSTANCE. Look at the facts America!

When people speak on these blogs they should speak for themselves. I am an "american people" and I am not behind Hillary. This is a primary for nomination of our democratic leader. The party may be split now but in the end whether it be Obama or Hillary, I believe that our Party will win over the Republicans. However, If I really had my way I'd do away with all these bi-partisan politics…..thats what Really divides our country. Also, id like to see a populous vote and none of this electoral college crap. Anyway, Go Obama. I think you speak for the majority of our people. I trust you over Hillary. Hillary has too much political baggage.

I'm so proud of Hillary's win in CA. Thank you to all those who voted for her.

But more important IMO, is the HUGE number of Democratic voters who turned out to vote yesterday all across our country. I think it bodes well for November and no matter who the candidate turns out to be, I think we are headed to a win in November for the Democratic Party.

Someone said Obama only won 6 states. Um, no? He won 14. Hillary won 8.

Well i think a lot of Black People can no longer say they're "voting based on who is the best candidate" considering the landslides of Black Voters for Obama even though he is the epitome of "Big Corporate Money"……

What counts though is that Hillary is STILL ahead in total delegates and only has to maintain her lead now through the rest of this…..

the scary part is that no matter WHICH candidate wins total delegate votes….when it's THAT close with any candidate, it's pretty much up to those old cats in Washington to cast their votes based on what we expect them too and more often than not, they delegates do whatever they want since they're clearly allowed to and i think a lot of Americans don't understand that. I don't like ANY Nomination to be in the hands of Washington and when it's as close as it looks like it will be, it's hard for anyone to cry "foul" on who is the elected Dem candidate in the end.

Again….Hillary is ahead and I am one very happy camper….bragging rights don't get you far and since this isn't the actual election with popular vote, nothing matters except delegate count for either side.

Keep winning Hillary!!!!!

Thanks Patrick, We they people have spoken , enough of the media hype, celebs endorsements . I have said that this election will be based on one three things- economy , economy , economy . please can anyone tell me if Ted Kennedy , John kerry and Oprah was watching last night. I wonder what happened to the lion of the democratic party in his own den! is it that the lion can no longer roar both in his den ( boston) and away from his den (Calif) . it is time for a change,John kerry and Ted Kennedy should resign from the senate and make way for generational change. Oprah should continue with what he knows how to do -selling books.

Thank you God you're Hillary's endorsement. Go girl you made it through the key States. Just stay positive and let God do His job. Be strong and of a good courage, be not afraid neither be dismayed for the Lord is with you. We’re ready for a woman president.

It's a shame that the democratic race has degenerated into a fight between black and white, man and woman. Every new analysis of results or opinion polls adds more fuel to the fire and causes more polarization. As for the "Latino-Phenomenon", I think it is easily explained: ENVY!

Hillary, the crying wanna-be-Commander in Chief, is not electable in the general election. The Clintons are too divisive, and too hated by the Republicans. She would galvanize a united Republican electorate that, at present is unhappy and unenthusiastic about their front runner. Voting for Hillary is a vote for the Republicans to keep the White house and continue the horrible Bush policies. Obama WON 14 states to Hillary's 8, and only fell short in delegates by 76. An amazing Super-Tuesday. If not for the old establishment "super delegates" that favor Hillary due to previous political ties to the Clintons, Obama would lead in the delegate count, as well. The Clintons hope to steal this election from the people in back-room deal making. Obama's support is much broader across the country, Hillary's is concentrated in a few population centers. Obama's financial support is from a broad coalition, with much more coming, while Hillary's is from a few fat cats, previously tied to the old Clinton machine, that are now at their limit. The next few weeks will reveal that Obama is going to be the Democratic candidate, who will indeed win in the general election.

Come one people… obama is using all the jet set people to try to lure votes, obama is using churchs and congregations to get votes, obama is using small groups of people to campaign against the "conditions against black people", obama is using all kind of tactics to take down the think of a possible woman to be in power (to right after that present his wife and say that it´s here that commands the house?).

I have many fear if obama gets elected… he is just a puppet that have some big corporations behind him moving the cords. It will not be too far to see obama in every major television talk show talking about his decisions to the future, just to get votes from the minorities.

Inspite of the media's over scrutiny of the Clintons, total bias towards Obama, the last minute (intent to hurt Hillary) endorsements from the Kennedy's and the celebrity women, Hillary won (as for delegate counts, i am sure it'll add up). Don't over analyse (especailly Gloria, who comes across as a surrogate of Obama just like Chris Mathews and that other babe in MSNBC), just say HILLARY WON!

Inspirational speeches are good but Hillary has the substance, the specifics. Obama has a lot to learn…maybe in 2016. But 2008, it's Hillary.

If only Michigan and Florida were int he count…………..

So proud of you Hilliary

You showed CNN MSNBC news media

Fox was not as biased in their reporting last night.

You also showed the Kennedy clan and Oprah. I think so much less of Caroline for getting into this. ALL Barack can preach is change but with no substance.

.

I am so disapointed in some of my fellow democrat voters for clearly voting on there candidate by race and not a record of work ;performance ; or issues..Latinos & aisian voters clearly wont vote for the black candidaye;& many southern blacks did not vote for a white candidate eventhough whites in Iowa chose Obama ;but clearly had another choice.

Hillary won HUGE.
Obama won the states; most of those states will never be in democrat’s column in November. Does it matter if he wins those states?

DNC wake up. Stop this non-sense. Hillary won popular vote. She won most delegates. She won the States, which are most important for General election NOv 2008.
SHE is the Democratic nominee for President.

Hillary, YOU are GREAT!!

All this talk of Hillary's experience is malarky. just because she lived with the president doesn't mean she's qualified to be the president. she cannot work with others–it's her way or the highway. just look how great she was when after bill was elected she spent three years working on healthcare reform and got absolutely nowhere with it. who do you think will pay for this 'free' healthcare?? if hillary is the democratic candidate i plan to vote for anyone on the republican ticket. she is extremely divisive and this country will be in the worst shape it's even been in if she is the president. and even her fake tears will not solve all the problems.

Somehow I get the feeling that Barack Obama is still going to defeat Hillary for the Democratic nomination.

Here's a key number from last night in California.
Those who decided more than 3 days ago who they were going to vote for ,
voted for Clinton……….Those who made up their minds in the last three days,
voted for Obama.

He still clearly has the momemtum and there aRE STILL ROUGHLY HALF THE STATES WHO HAVE YET TO VOTE!!

Plus he has raised more money than Hillary .
She is in a real dogfight

Dear Anderson:
Whether you read this comment or not… I felt that I had to get it off my chest… Hillary or McCain… much of the same… the small entrepreneur works hard and long hours and then watches his/her revenue evaporate in taxes and health benefits… etc. Dreaming to get ahead and grow into a company that could create business and jobs as well as make an impact on its community; yet, the system as it is currently designed works more against him/her than for him/her. The under-funded Huckabee campaign offers real departures from the current system - bold and challenging steps that would promote the type of change that we are all looking for… Only Obama offers a degree of change on this other side of our political machine although I do not agree with him on some of his positions. If the presidential campaign offers a McCain - Clinton or Obama ticket, then I have no idea whom to vote for… Frankly, it is even a bit discouraging… Though not left without hope, I will continue to pursue the dream and believe that my children will have better opportunities…
I am 41 years old; I have been living in this great country for 21 years; I have been a citizen for five years; I am of French and Morrocan descent and I am married to an African-American woman and the father of two beautiful girls; I am an entrepreneur; I am a registered Republican; I am a Christian and I love my country…
Another Frenchman by the name of Alexis de Tocqueville in his time once answered the question: “What makes America great?” by stating: “America is great because America is good; when America ceases to be good, it will no longer be great!”
I am a concerned citizen and entrepreneur who lives in New Jersey…
I am a Christian who will continue to pray for America and its leadership…

for a state where she was leading by a comfortable margin about 2 wks ago, to win by only 10% points in california is not really a good sign. in total won delgates, this is the first time clinton leads, and only by 9-20. this will quicly change with the next races, and democrats may find that obama is leading again in actual won delegates. this prolonged race is not going to help this party. it allows the clear republican leader to consolidate and that party to start planning. worse still, this extended competition can deepen divisions between the supporters of these candidates. also, the safe guard put in place by the democratic party to settle a tie, may cause more problems than it solves. the democratic party is, at this time, a house divided ( more so than the reps ). they also face the issue of trying to retain the obama supporters, who are decidedly young, well-educated, and primarily only involved in this elections because of obama. it would probably be no surprise to find out that for a good number of these obama supporters, clinton is not their second choice. the democratic race will continue, but it may turn out to be to the detriment of the party.

Everyone is shouting change in America. If Americans really want change, they should go out and vote for OBAMA. American should create chance for the change not only shouting we want change. They should not make the same mistake and vote for Hallary Clinton if they really want change because she will do the same old factors. And this time it will be worst.

Americans should rise and go out for a change!

It's disgusting that even from an outsider, CNN's bias for Obama is sooooo glaring!!!! To think that CNN is perceived to be a reputable News Network.

I'm not an American, I'm Asian and I have been following US primary elections and I could really see how bias CNN is.

Come on!!! I know that you are voters as well but you guys need to remember that you are also a journalists!!!!!!!!!!! Aren't journalists supposed to adhere to higher standard of excellence and part of attaining "excellence"" is objectivity.

Well! I guess I just have to switched channel turn to BBC instead so that I can get objective opinions and presentations of the US primary elections.

If only I can vote, I'll go for Hillary!! I'm impressed by her brilliance. Obama is also impressive. When it comes to rehearsed speech he could really be electrifying!! but substance… I'm not sure.. so far he hasn't shown yet that he could go beyond rhetorics. For me he did not fair well on debates. The true mettle of a candidates could be gauged on debates where candidates are faced with unprepared questions.

If Democrats want to win this election we better back Hillary. The states he won will go republican anyway. And don't forget Florida. That was the state that swayed the election.

Hillary is winning ……………..go girl!

Sen: Hilary Clinton is the most professinal , suitalble candidate .. there is no DOUBT ABOUT IT … I DON'T KNOW WHY SO MUCH TALK ABOUT OPERAH , WHATS THE BIG DEAL ABOUT SHE IS HELPING OBAMA , beside its very clear she took the side of her own race……I HOPE AMERICA GETS SOME KIND OF MSG; HERE IF THEY BRING OBAMA TO WHITE HOUSE , he is not the right person …….. PLS THINK BEFORE YOU DO ANYTHING VOTE FOR CLINTON ..

Obama will not accept debates with Hillary because he will show how empty his issues are. Hillary has the experience on money issues and the love of all international countries behind her.

Go Hillary!!!!

More States for Obama than Billary; this just evident the fact that Obama is widely accepted than Billary across the country. Democrats shld get in touch with their senses to field a candidate with wider acceptance at the general elections.

YES WE CAN!

barackobama.com

If Hillary can win with the media bashing her, she won!

This woman has been so bashed by CNN, I am surprised she even won any primary.

Go Girl!

i believe Snt: Hilary clintion is the most suitable candidate,she has experience in alround. did not just come out from no where, . people should appreciate her contribution to this country over the years , this is the best chance for AMERICA to see the woman in power there is no any other who is experience as her. she stood against all the odds in the life and was first lady twice elected and has the experience in the world . surely she knows whats the best.. and dont forget, its the woman who keeps the family tight and AMERICA is one big family.. ITS CRAZY IF AMERICA DIDNOT VOTE FOR HER. ..IF YOU NEED A CHANGE THIS IS THE CHANGE NOT ANY BODY ELSE……….. PLS

wow I'm just shocked at how much anti-Hillary ppl there are?

so some of you mean to tell me that if Hillary wins the dem nomination you would vote for that IDIOT JOHN MCCAIN?!?!?!

The guy who wants to stay in iraq for a 100 YEARS and spend billions on a war that is never going to be successful?

Whether or not you're a Hillary supporter or a Obama supporter,I hope most people realize that a Democrat should be in the White House.

Another crazy Republican would ruin this country!

After reading most of the comments, I can conclude that Obama's supporters are either racist and/or sexist (not to mention anti-gay as well).

Most of the offensive comments came from the Obama's camp which hints the acceptance of defeat.

Hillary won the delegates. It's not a tie.
Hillary won the delegates. It's not a tie.

Hillary won the delegates.

Hillary is ahead. Go girl!

Hillary does not stand a chance of winning in November against McCain. She will unite the republicans, Mc Cain will carry the independents, and Hillary will not have all the democrats. A nomination of Hillary will only make the Democratic Party weaker. Once more the Clintons will give the presidency to the republicans.

All the promise of Hillary about the economy, health care, and Iraq will require bringing the republicans, independents, and democrats. She is too divisive to bring all those people together. So as many of the democrats vote their emotions know that Hillary will not deliver.

If at the end, I have to choose between Hillary and Mc Cain, then I will choose Mc Cain because I will judge Hillary on her so called experience ( Mc Cain has more experience), Mc Cain is a war hero, hence a better commander in chief. Heck both Hillary and Mc Cain voted for the war in Iraq, but Mc Cain is honest about it.

Even with all the rotten negative GOP controlled reporting by the news media Clinton is still winning this primary. The lack of real news by reporters today makes for negative reporting with personal agendas taking up ninety percent of every news hour. A hearty well done to Clinton for standing up for what she believes against an army of negative reporting. Clinton 08.

To all you feMen who voted for HITLERy:

Strong womyn:
Her first act is to establish a new cabinet position. The Dept. of MALE Castration!

Is it at all possible that people can just "hey Clinton won California. Great. Obama prove that he has a credible run at the White House as well. Great." Why do people have to say she's a liar and he's a preacher. What is the possibility that we can Americans can learn to disagree without being disagreeable. "CNN is bias, Latinos don't know much, Asian, Blacks, Women….." People that is what is wrong with this country. We don't discuss and debate we ridicule and mock - I can't imagine why we do stand as a leader for the rest of the world. We're better than this and if not…God help us because no candidate is ever going to make America a better place because to many of the people are just too small.

God Bless…and Get it Together!

Since, the Asian voters in California seem to have had such a big role in Clinton's lead over Obama, I feel like I must share my two cents here, as someone who lives in perhaps one of the most concentrated Asian communities in California. It is also one of the least concentrated population of African Americans. I think that ignorance and negative images perpetuated by social media have worked in Clinton's favor here. Quite simply, Asian Americans (and not to make a blanket statement here, but certainly a large majority of them in California) will not vote for an African American. The younger generation of Asian American is slowly defying this trend but these households (from what I have observed) largely teach their children to be wary of African Americans and approach them with their preconceived misconceptions of the character of an African American individual, deluded by movies and music videos and quite possibly never having met an African American. I can only hope that in time, we can transcend such racial boundaries and cast an educated vote.

Before you vote, please ask yourself why you are voting for that candidate. If you do not have a good answer then perhaps there is some more research that needs to be done on your part.

Obama 08
Hillary 08

But please, not for the wrong reasons.

The rhetoric offered by Obama and team (read Oprah,Kennedy's and the gang) was good enough to sway large no of votes in his favor.
But rhetoric sadly .. Mr Obama .. remains a rhetoric.
Your fiery speeches might sound good to the ears but they lack the framework on which USA should be built.
We need some concrete plans and thats where Ms Clinton scores.
Just because you think that you did not vote in favour of the war (just your luck because no one knew how Mr Bush would twist the agenda) doesnt give Ms Clinton a negative profile.
You say that "We have to be right from day 1″ based on just one argument.How would we know that your so-called judgement is good on all the issues.
What about other arguments where Hillary scores 10 to your zero.
IMO, Hillary should become the next President of USA if this country has to do well economically and get out of the subprime mortgage mess, make a mark in the world and progress towards new milestones.

Go Hillary Go - President 2008

Ah yes i iknew that hillary would win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!GO HILLARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!YOU ARE THE WINNER!!!!!! PARTY TIME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!!!!!!!
IF YOU HAD YOUR DELEGATES FROM MICHIGAN AND FLORIDA THIS THING WOULD BE WRAPPED UP!!!!!!!!!!!
FLORIDA FOR HILLARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Poor Ted - couldn't even deliver his own state - why can't he just drive off into the sunset or something? (By HIMSELF this time!)

Poor Oprah - couldn't deliver California - girlfriend, eat something fattening - you'll feel better

Why is there such a SURGE of people coming out to VOTE this year?

At every speece Obama continues to take all the credit for the interest that the country has in politics this year. He thinks he (Oprah) are responsible for getting all the people out. Someone needs to give Obama the real reason… George Bush.

George Bush has done such a terrible job as a President that people are just plain disgusted. George Bush is the one to thank for the true interest in this election. If there is one good thing that has come out of the horrific last 7 years it is that FINALLY people realize they have a voice and it really does make a difference.

I'm all for the close race in the democratic party but there is always a close race in the democratic party it doesnt really matter who wins eventhough I'm for Obama but we will win this election wether or not it clinton or Obama

Obama 2008!

The gap is closing between Obama and Clinton in CA, with a 10 percentage point spread with 85% of the precincts reporting as opposed to the 20 percentage point spread beforehand when people jumped the gun and started calling it a landslide…

Edwards has a 5% vote, which most of them were mail in ballots before he dropped out of the race. If you divided Edwards votes among Obama and Clinton, It's safe to say Obama would've received most of those, which would have probably put Obama within 5 percentage points.

The Delegate allocation would've been very different.

As of now, the Delegates will still be divided fairly closely.

Asians and Latinos went for Hilary because she is inclusive and knows what that means. Obama spent his adult life championing issues for Blacks. Whereas, Hilary, despite the unpopular theme it was in her time to care about minorities, when the racial divide was physically punished, she came to bat for those issues. She spent her adult life helping ALL Americans. Obama, despite living overseas, lacks fundamental knowledge and sensitivity to other races except his own issues. Despite being equally White, he chose to identify himself as a Black; by doing this, he signalled to Asians and Latinos his focus. Obama's choice has a chilling effect not just to other minorities but to Whites. Why? This means that Obama and who he is will make decisions race based. That's scary for a nation trying to rebuild our position in the world. That's scary to China as a developing nation to see this Black president that knows and cares little for other than BLACk WHITE BLACK WHITE BLACK WHITE.

Obama is winning! Hope is never useless! Wait and see. He is the best!

Go Obama!
Yes, we can!
Si, se puede!

Well it looks like the Democratic voters are/have been much more energized this time around than Republican ones … an edge they'd better hope to maintain in the general election, especially if Hillary is the nominee. Because she will bring out the right-wing crazies to vote against her like nobody has done before. GOP have been sharpening their knives against her for twelve years or more. Get ready for a knock-down, drag-out general election!

Oh, how funny it was to see that John Kerry and Ted Kennedy lost…there is a god! Poor Chris Matthews and Keith Olbermann..almost in tears. I wouldn't have been surprised if they had worn t-shirts saying how they support Barack. Even with all the negative, onesided remarks, Hillary stood tall. What a fighter!!

Yeah.. she got Latino and Asian voters, but perhaps it was that huge chunk of voters Edwards some how ate up? People in California did get the memo that he dropped out right?

If any other race voted based on race would that be "racist"?

" Obama carried black voters 82 to 16 percent".

GO BARACK OBAMA HILLARY DOSEN'T STAND A CHANCE

OBAMA 'O8

Sorry, Patrick, if the American People were squarely behind Hillary Clinton, the popular vote and delegate numbers would not be so close…. If you think she is so popular, just give her the nomination and watch how very "unpopular" she is. You people crack me up… I wish you would wise up…. when you choose a "candidate," you should try to choose the most "electable" candidate….not all of this "you go girl," "poor Hillary is fighting the bad press"…. etc.. The fact is Hillary was "expected" to win "overwhelmingly" until a month or so ago…and SHE DIDN'T. From everything I have seen, it is pretty much even. Hopefully, the rest of the country will figure this out in the upcoming primaries. By the way…"Universal Healthcare" isn't "free" healthcare…and unlike the mandatory car insurance in CA , you will be fined for not being able to afford it…. and let me remind you about how we Californians still must pay additional $$ in our premiums to protect the rest of us from those "uninsured" drivers! Those uninsured drivers just continue to drive, now without a license (and Hillary doesn't want you to have one of those either if you are not documented)…. So this healthcare plan covers "everyone?" Get real… there is still a divided house and senate…. She knows that, but unfortunately, she continues to pander to those that believe this means "free" healthcare.

Shame on CNN for ingnoring Hillary & building HYPE for Obama. Many of my friends including me are considering stop watching CNN. Your philosophy is coming pretty close to Fox's. Be fair to all candidates including Hillary, Obama, & Ron Paul. Hillary 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Keep hating on he black vote!!!!

At the beginning the question was : Is Obama Black Enough????

Now the question should be: Will the black voters criss-cross, if Hillary were to get the democratic nomination…..???? (its up in the air?)

Forget the hispanic, white and all the other vote….NO DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATE WILL WIN THE GENERAL ELECTION WITHOUT the black vote.

Thank you California!
Go Hillary!

I am personally VERY SHOCKED at the obviously blantant sexism I saw while sitting up all night watching CNN…
Every time Obama won a state, it was HUGE PRAISE and tons of too heaped on him ..
when Hillary won , they tried to figure out WHY she won and what it meant to Obama, and the CAST of "pundits" seemed to get more and more caught up in it as the night went on…..
I also noticed …that when Hillary was leading in a state, CNN and the powers that be, wouldnt call it for HILLARY until it was over 60 sometimes 70 percent, and they would say ITS BECAUSE IT WAS JUST TOO CLOSE … But once the votes were actually IN … She beat Obama handily …But they would call an OBAMA win alot faster and PRAISE AND PRAISE and spend lots of time on him …
The only people I noticed who tried to keep the folks away from that was LOU DOBBS and ANDERSON COOPER …
Please guys.. I know some of you cant stand the IDEA of a FEMALE president , but please …..keep it to yourselves …….. it was SHOWING BAD last night … very BAD …….
I love my PARTY and will support whoever wins my PARTY …
But please be FAIR "GENTLEMEN" and keep your personal ideas and feelings at HOME ….
I watched this go on AND on on FOX … but we all EXPECT it from them … NOT CNN…

This is all exciting.. I'm a LATINO Voter in CALIFORNIA !! and I voted.. and I'm 28. I guess my vote did count.

It's like hell, having Clinton's in Washington for 4 more yrs. Can u guys try something new? why should we eat the same dish as 90th? Did we really enjoy Clonton's Administration policies? why do we want it again? In any case, get ready for the copy & paste.

I agree with boogie completely…The Republicans are terrified of the Clintons. Republicans want Obama to win because they know he wont stand a chance in November. And why some people might ask???? Because this is sad to say in the 21st century but this country's still a very racist nation ,and most radical republicans who voted for Bush's second term will come out of there caves and vote Huckabee,Romney or McCain in November in order to keep a black man out of the White House. People should think why the Republicans would slam on Hillary and VERY silent on Obama .
Thats why many people voted for Hillary including myself. Hillary is a Shoe in if nominated.Obama is a great candidate and I would love to see that Dreamticket to the White House "Clinton/Obama 08″ in November.

First of all I just want to note how often I seem to see remarks left by women voters who seem to bring up the fact that they probably voted for or support Hillary based on the fact that she is a woman.

If this is true, and you are a woman who did just that, you have nominated someone for the most important job on the planet simply b/c she's just like you…This of course makes you a complete and total idiot. Girl power, time for a woman in charge, and all of this nonsense just proves to me that you can be just as short-sighted and misogynistic as men, congratulations…

And for you ladies who are voting for her b/c you think its time we had a woman leader, just like other countries have in the past, I just have to ask……Would you really want Margaret Thatcher running the show in the US? Food for thought…..

Congrats to Clinton, but you supporters may want to consider the long term goal. That is a win in the White House. I live in Utah. (Yes I am LDS if it matters.) I go to BYU. I am in probably the most conservative state in the US. Everyone that I talk to says that if the race is McCain and Obama then they will vote Obama. But if it is McCain Clinton, they will vote McCain. Clinton may still win the white house, but Obama would win against the most likely candidate in the most unlikely place.

Personally I think that all these people aren't worth our time……

I from Haiti, the first free black republic in the world ,do i need to vote for Obama just because i'm black, i dont think so, if we (black) have to vote for Obama because he's Black, i got to say there isnt NO CHANGE we still got 2 AMERICAS,,,,STOP TALKING ABOUT CHANGE OBAMA ,,,we still have this word is a BROTHER let's vote for him, we suppose to vote not because of his race but because for he really represents,,,,THIS IS 2008 NOT 1948 STOP TALKING ABOUT MY PEOPLE (BLACK WHITE LATINO) ,WE ARE JUST HUMAN, we see in each state 70% of black voted for Obama ,,how many white voted for Clinton do the math,you know why because White people dont see Obama as a Black candidate,,,,they see him as man that represent America,,not the white or the black America but the USA,,,think about that,,,,

Laura–VanCover—thanks—- your comment says it all and let me add "Oprah", because people used their heads instead of her words, their hearts—priceless.

rick from wisconsin says: "if Hillary wins the democratic race, I will vote republican. I am a die hard Democrat…"

Ha! paaa…leeeeez!!! I seriously doubt that! That's a contradictory statement if I ever heard one.

I believe I see an elephant attempting to blend in mules clothing among us.

It's ridiculous that so many independents were rejected at the polls, which clearly benefitted Billary.
I'm going to vote for McCain if she's nominated or I'll write in Obama, but either way
I don't want her to cry about it again (because nothing says "Commander in Chief" like crying under pressure).I will vote for a fellow woman to be president when a worthy candidate presents herself. Til then I refuse to settle for a fake. She will motivate a legion of GOP voters. At least, they've got someone to get excited about now.

We should all pull together and analyze who can better handle all of the stuff that is being left behind by our present cabinet.. Nothing against BO however he speaks of delivering but what is it he is truly delivering, I am not sure. All I have seen from his campaign are a large # of celebrities coming out to support his cause; they speak corporate words such as "unity, empowerment, change". Are we not united today, how enpowered can we the people be since Congress holds the power, and hopefully change will come with whoever is elected. If we are looking for inspiration, we can look inside ourselves and find that. His campaign momentum is "the future", however he is constantly relying on folks from the past, the theme is confusing. Our last eight years were based upon likeability and look where we are today——-economically insufficent, war/healthcare issues.

People are not looking at the facts and whether one wants to admit it, most of this democratic race is split between race and gender instead of facts. Hopefully, we can pull together and rise above those two traits and identify the candidate who can best serve the democratic party whether you like the person or not.

If anyone is really paying attention to total delegate votes:

Obama 540 delegates
Clinton 531 delegats

of course this is without Super Delegates added into the mix.

I would be careful Clinton Supporters of how you tout this day. Everyone has said this is not the deciding factor in the race. And if you really understand and have been following the political environment.

February 9, 2008 are major caucus states and well if you look at the track record we all know who wins Caucus states. Obama.

even with Super Delegates added in and the total distribution of delegates Clinton only shows a +9 delegate lead.

After February 9th Obama will be in a significant lead over Clinton, even with her Super Delegate lead.

So Hillary supporters…..have you heard the expression….. "Don't count your chickens before they've hatched?" Well, I would really be careful with your pride and ego.

An important thread in these comments is the profound — and I think justified — distrust of CNN. Years ago a commentator noted the "hollowing out" of CNN in fall 2004, when it suddenly adopted Fox Noise as a role model. Entirely unrelated to whether Hillary or Obama is the better candidate, Hillary's supporters are manifestly justified in their feeling that CNN has slanted its coverage, ditto most of the media (who usually ape each other). . If the Dem party eventually nominates Barack after all, the media knifemen will then turn on him faster than you can say Wolf Blitzer.

The clintons are veterans… they know what states to win.. and they did. CA, NJ, NY, MA, FL, MI

Obama is a great speach maker. but he does not seem to know about politics. winning UTAH, will not do for a democrat because he will for sure not win in in Nov.

Democrats need to rally behind clinton and take the WH from the republicans. Obama is a big black box. he could be exposed by the republicans and at that time, it would be too little too late. clinton is polished. they republicans have already have a shot, and they have no more dirt on her. But who knows what the republicans are cooking against Obama.

the country cannot afford another 4 years of republicans. vote safety. vote hillary.

Obama will win MD, DC and VA next week.

Are we sure Hillary didn't ship a bunch of Mexicans in just for today? Were they all citizens?

"Ramiro February 6, 2008 1:16 am ET

Am I the only smart Hispanic who sees through Hillary's veil(s) of deceit?

Obama '08. Si se puede."

Ramiro, you're not the only smart Hispanic who saw through "…Hillary's veil(s) of deceit", but sadly, you are among the few.

"jacob February 6, 2008 1:34 am ET

Hope wont breed change just by repeating the word hope, i need someone who instills hope through proposals for solutions and Hillary does that so i voted for her tonight."

Jacob, have you even read the section of Obama's website called "Issues"? If you do, you will discover a vast array of sensible solutions to all the major problems of the day, both foreign and domestic. That should instill enough HOPE in you to change your vote in November.

Is it true that Obama was not in the US senate when the senate conducted a vote on the Iraq war? If it is true, how could he have voted against the war if he was not there? Could he have voted in favor if he was there in the light of all phoney evidence provided by the Bush administration?

How come the television networks have not investigated this matter? I agree its quite possible to be against the war like so many Americans but its not possible for all Americans to vote at the Senate with regards to Iraq war.

I know Obama arrived the US senate in 2005 but do not really know when the vote was conducted.

It's very laughable for people to say Repubs will vote for Obama and then vote for a Repub nominee in the general. That'll be very foolish. I think Repubs are also concerned about whoever is elected and wll not crossover if they're serious Repubs. This Democratic race is far from over. I believe the Latinos and the Asians will be shamed by 02/12.

GO HILLARY!!!!

I FOR ONE DO NOT WANT SOMEONE IN THE WHITE HOUSE WITH THE NAME BARACK HUSSIN OBAMA. REMEMBER 9/11 AND RESPECT THE MEMORY OF THOSE WHO DIED THAT DAY IT WAS HIS PEOPLE THAT DID THAT.HILLARY WILL MAKE AN EXCELLENT PRESIDENT AND I THINK IT IS TIME FOR A WOMAN TO LEAD US. I WILL VOTE FOR HILLARY AND SUPPORT HER AS MUCH AS I CAN AND I AM A SENIOR CITIZEN ON A FIXED INCOME. WE NEED HEALTHCARE FOR EVERYONE AND IF YOU WOULD LISTEN TO SOME OF THE EXPERTS ON THIS HER PLAN IS BETTER THAN OBAMAS AND EVERYONE WOULD HAVE INSURANCE WHERE OBAMAS LEAVE OUT MORE THAN 50 MILLION AND HIS COSTS AS MUCH OR MORE THAN HILLARYS.SHE KNOWS HER STUFF. SHE WILL BRING CHANGE GIVE HER A CHANCE.DON'T BELIEVE THE FAIRY TALE OBAMA IS GIVING YOU

Everybody needs to take a deep breath and step back for a moment. For the first time in history, we have both an African-American and a female as serious contenders for a major party nomination for president (all due respect to Shirley Chisholm). When I think about what that means to our country, what it says about us as a people, I actually get a little misty-eyed. Barack and Hillary are BOTH stellar candidates (who actually differ very little platform-wise) and I for one will be thrilled and honored to give my wholehearted support to whichever one wins the nomination, particularly if the winner chooses the other candidate as a running mate.

Come together
Right now

(BTW, in case anyone's interested, my first choice is for Barack to be president.
In around 8 years. ;- )

To Amy who wrote: "I do not see how Clinton who's Husbands affair made us the laughing stock of other countries"

In other countries it was not Bill Clinton who made us laugh, but the whole investigation that just seemed ridiculous and so out of proportion! Overseas Clinton still is a well respected man as is Al Gore.

don't worry chacha! we live in a america the and of sexcist and racist. got me thinking american men mother happen to be (MEN.) and they talk about how the middle eastern men cheat there women……..wow

She won because some people had already vote. They vote for her because of her name(Bill Clintion wife). That name will not matter anymore. This is a small victory Hillary. When people get to know Mr. Obama the vote for him. So, Hillary you won the battle but Mr. Obama will win the war. I will see all you Hillary fans in two weeks when there no NY(state senator),AR(First lady) or CA(people out here love Bill) all Hillary strong holds. Mr. Obama split super Tuesday which is great for him.

People for change
Mr. Obama

I must say it does not bode well for the Dems that they will likely have their nominee chosen based upon super delegates. What happened to their argument of every vote counts in 2000? I suppose every vote counts and some count far more than others. Obama is in first place if you eliminate the super delegates. I also find that his argument that he can win over everyone who voted for Hillary but that she cannot come close to winning over everyone who voted for him to be a rather good point. Too many people hate Hillary for her to have a chance at winning a national election.

Opra came to california to endorce Obama, because she feels God mother .
Carolyn Canady thinks she is loving princes of american royal family, even the whole familty could not get votes in their own state. think about it, that how voters are smart.

All you Obama fans out there where the hell is the change he's talking about?. And why are you guys attacking the asians and the latinos…..you black americans can learn something from these group. (vote with you head, not the color of you skin or your a_s). you black americans always putting all your eggs in one basket.

by the way: i am a educated black man.
