TEXAS AND OHIO, your votes for Hillary will speak LOUD AND CLEAR!

We as Hillary supporters are counting on you!!!!!

PENNSYLVANIA-You will be as loud as Thunder!!!

BRING HER HOME!

Mike,
I do agree with you. I think the people already know Obama contrary to what he claims. Hillary is the unknown. Sure there is name recognition, but, there is a terrible bias of those who have prejudged. I think when it comes down to "where's the beef", Hillary will prevail.

I WISH PEOPLE WOULD GET PAST "IT'S A RACE ISSUE" OR "SHE'S A WOMAN"….PEOPLE, CLOSE YOUR EYES AND JUST LISTEN TO THESE CANDIDATES TALK…FORGET HE'S BLACK OR THAT SHE'S A WOMAN….LISTEN TO WHAT THEY HAVE TO SAY…..THE FIRST TIME IN MY VOTING YEARS I'M FINALLY HEARING SOMEONE THAT MOTIVATES ME TO BE INTERESTED IN THIS RACE AND TO WANT TO SEE A REAL CHANGE IN POLITICS, IN THE GOVERNMENT AS WE KNOW IT TODAY….I WILL TAKE A LITTLE EXPERIENCE OVER 35 YRS OF THE SAME OL' RHETORIC….OBAMA IS THE ONE TO PULL IT ALL TOGETHER….THE ONLY THING THAT HILLARY WILL CHANGE IS THAT SHE WILL WEAR THE CROWN AS BEING THE FIRST FEMALE PRESIDENT…THAT'S WHERE THE CHANGE WILL STOP….I HAVE A LOT MORE CONFIDENCE IN OBAMA……I AM IN AWE AS TO WHAT HE HAS MANAGED TO DO, BRINGING POEPLE OF ALL WALKS OF LIFE TOGETHER IN SO LITTLE TIME….I HAVE FAITH IN HIM THAT HE WILL GO FORTH AND DO GREAT THINGS…

Hillary Clinton may have bragging rights to New Mexico if they ever finish counting. It has been one week today and there still no results. Perhaps they should hire more people to count as it has been 99% for a week.

Va. has already voted republican. Lets pray that Marylanders have brains

Vote for HILLARY WHO CARES ABOUT AMERICA .

The only thing Mr Obama will change is his clothes.

Go Senator Clinton we are with you all the way!

DUMP OBAMA IN MARCH - It's up to you Texas, Ohio and Pennyslvania. We don't need a salesman as the nominee, someone who has to exploit Clinton's political history to define his own. He has no core.

Mike…Sorry I do not agree

You stated yourself that you did not vote for him
And everyone in these states are not black
Many friends of mine are Black and are not voting for Obama

If he took 100% of the Black vote it still would not be enough
Others are and will vote for him
People are starting to see who Hillary really is…and it is not good

I can't wait to see how Hillary spins this

I have to laugh when I read comments such as " I am sooooo excited!! This is my first primary and election! Whee!" This is who is voting for Obama. Kiddies, do some homework and look into who is most qualified to lead this nation, not who can sing a Jay Z tune.

God help us all.

Hillary '08

Race is a huge factor. Please don't vote based on this. We need someone who knows the drill to fix what this country now faces abroad. Do you truly see Obama doing this?? I don't. Change = Hillary. No more promises we need action.

Why did CNN think that it was so important to report that Hulk Hogan endorsed Obama, but there is no mention of former Ohio senator and astronaut John Glenn endorsing Clinton?

For accuracy Pat Robertson is based in Virginia Beach not Chesapeake as reported

Shannon,

Super Delegates have a place. A caucas does not represent the population. Even you know that.
We will learn only when it is too late that experience is critical. Remember the Republicans came out tonight for (in their mind )the weaker candidate and voted Obama. Think about it.

Peace & Good night

Billary can't win the general without the black vote; Obama can't win it without the Latino vote. One or the other is going to be disappointed no matter who wins this. It looks like it's going to be McCain sitting in the White House.

You guys are so right. States like Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Washington…all black people. That's totally why Obama's winning everything.

Stop trying to marginalize him. People like this candidate. Hillary is going down the tubes. Get over it.

Hillary is the only clear choice for experience, exposure, and how to dipomatically deal with America and the world. She has dedicated her life to public service and knows the world leaders, we need a NEW approach to our position as a country when dealing with foreign policy. Vote Hillary, she will make us proud to state we are American's again when abroad….

There are many countries that have no issue voting in a woman as President, let's learn from them and not be so stubborn and patriarchal. Let stand together women, it has only been less than 100 years since we have had the right to vote!

While Obama is a great orator, he seems the likely choice, and I will vote for him IF it comes to that, he is not seasoned as a executive leader or a foreign diplomate… How do we want to be viewed, and who will still protect us from future threats???????

VOTE HILLARY - The choice is clear…..

thanks Mike-a man of reason…we need lots more!!

If Obama gets in the white house,they are going to have to change the menue to chitlines and watermelon. Oh yes and change the sheets more to change the oil in them.

"The disparity of feeling between these candidates is akin to that which separates a painting of a sunrise and the thing itself. From the former you get a sense of grandeur, a thin notion of possibility. From the latter, we awake, warmed and stirred to rise in response."….this says it all….i will vote for hillary if she is the nominee…..but, i'd rather be inspired……

Barack wins Virginia!

Yes, race is the reason Obama will win these states. Clinton knows this as does everyone else. The areas are prodominately black and black people are voting for Obama. Simple. If Obama were not black, the black population would NOT be so willing to vote for "change" with absolutely no history of producing change….These Black people just want to see a black president. Yes, I'm a black man, I voted for Hillary … proven history of "change"

Hey Mighty Whitty NOT, saying something else is old, is not a satisfactory qualification for your candidate. Don't you people know anything. Policies, past accomplishments? Anything that you can fill these posts with other than insults against the opponent? By the way, if you ever have surgery, tax returns anything of real significance in your life; I recommend going with the one who has experience.

Yea!!!!!!!!!!!!!Obama!!!!Yes we can!!!!!!!!!!!!Good lord, yes we can.

Hi , I voted today in Maryland and it took me about 20 minutes.
It was easy and the people were Nice. Just thought i'd say thanks
to the people working at the polling Places . I voted for Hillary Clinton.
Cya

@mags
race has come into this contest in more than one way?
well, a majority of blacks vote for Obama, a majority of latinos and asians votes for clinton, whites are almost split even. so….you are saying what exactly??? the voting pattern says what?? these are all american citizens, everyone has a right to vote whoever they think is best!!! Mags, I am not sure if you have realized your statement was slightly racist!!

You guys are hilarious. Right now, the Super Delegates are the bad guys, because they are behind Clinton.

As soon as the Super Delegates switch their votes to Obama, I guess they'll become the "democratic process" at its finest.

Good lord.

Hillary, you got my 4th contributions today. We do not need Saint Obama to lead us, we need real people.
Hillary 08!

Also, remember that there will be NO caucuses in the general election. People have all day to vote. Thats Osamas winning strategy now of this campaign that wont be a factor in the general should he get nominated.

This will be 1984 all over again.

After POTOMAC primary.. Hillary still leading.. about 10 total delegates, again every delegates count.. Either way …..HILLARY is next president..

Grace and peace to all who believe in change and progressive ideals (grace and peace to those who do not as well, WWJD). As a Latino and progressive Christian I am more than pleased with the democratic race for president. I am for Obama, but I will be more than happy if Hillary wins. This is a historic moment for peace, peaceful revolution and real change. May God allow us to break the barriers that divide us, not only here in the US, but around the world.

Peace out;

Wake up, Hilary is the only true choice, unfortunately race has come into this contest in more than one way, the voting pattern so far says it all

To the person who said "I shouldn't be surprised, though. 57% of you Hillary supporters didn't even graduate high school." Sorry you are wrong. I have my masters, and I voted for Hillary. I believe she has the best answers to our problems and she has persevered in helping people. I do not confuse her with Bill; he is not running. Really do not understand how lopsided news is over coverage. I did not know John Glenn endorsed Hillary - who would with coverage. I think media wants Obama. Why? The Republicans will have a field day with Obama.

Hey Joe I'm supporting Hillary. I'm an advanced practice nurse with a Masters degree.

Do not be impressed by delusions of grandeur.
Stop following rhetoric and think substance.
Don't be naive and deceived.
Obama
Not ready* Not now

Hillary'08

Rechi: You are a liar. I saw the interview and what you have written is totally untrue. I think you have been hanging around Hillary too long.

WOW Obama has more white votes then black in VA, there goes all you racist who say Obama will win off the Afican-American vote in VA, MD and DC
Obama - 49% white vote
43% black vote

VOTE RON PAUL!!!!

Too many times Americans have been presented with a "lesser of evils" dilema. I don't think that will be the case in November, unless it's Clinton vs. McCain.

I can't believe how so many people keep insulting Obama voters by saying they are uninformed, they are only running after a candidate who is not experienced and basically can't do anything but inspire people. Wake up America! Go to obama.com, educate yourself. Obama has just as much substance! This whole image of the "no substance"guy is created by the media! Don't fall for it! Why is it that so many people with higher education vote for him (and I am not saying this to disrespect anyone - I know many people with higher education also vote for Hillary) - but my point is: they ususally take some time to inform themselves. They found out that Obama has indeed very specific and concrete plans - and they make sense!! Plus he is inspiring!! So stop this nonsense talk! Vote for whoever you consider the best candidate but stop trying to diminish Obama!!!

The republicans can't wait to get their hands on your Obama!

Canadian here :o) I must say how impressed I am at the close race between Clinton and Obama.

Hats off the the Democrats to be the first party to place "people's" choice above Corporate choice.

I wish both Clinton and Obama the best of luck, cause the way I see it, no matter who wins, we all win.

Nice to be your neighbour. I have not stopped watching your primarys with great interest :o)

If I may comment, and if I had the vote, I would vote for Hillery, only because I believe Americans would benefit her years of experience and her ability to be accountable. Very nice qualities for a future President.

Sandie Gee

Actually, we want Senator Barack Obama !!!!!!!!

Well my suspicions may be true.
Virginia Republicans are voting for OBAMA. In the state of Virginia Republicans and Dems are able to vote in the primary either party. They are voting for Obama today because as they told me, my husband and several friends, "Hillary is the threat." Their candidate has been mathematically confirmed and it is their belief Obama will not take McCain.
If you are a Sen.Hillary Clinton supporter you have chosen correctly.
Numbers don't always tell the truth. What a brilliant threat she is!!

Never Give Up!!!

Hillary'08

Obama08!!!Obama08!!!Obama08!!!

It's nice to see the Dems are as mean to each other as the Reps are. Makes me feel part of a big human family.

Get out and vote for a winner, HUCKABEE. YES.

At least one of your listeners did not listen to what Michelle Obama iterated In her interview with Larry King. She specifically stated that she did not 'celebrate' over projected wins. She said that she preferred to wait until all of the tallies were counted. She also said that they had a difficult race ahead and that they probably would do well today, but she did not brag about being in the White House. She was asked if she was ready to take her position as First Lady if her husband became President. She said that she was 'up to the task' ; that she views it as an honor, a privilege and a great opportunity====very humble tone in my opinion. She is a confident, intelligent, warm and gracious lady. WHO WOULDN'T WANT HER IN THE WHITE HOUSE? ONLY SOMEONE WHO HAS THE WRONG ISSUES IN THE FOREFRONT OF THEIR THINKING. THE OTHER 'POSSIBLE' FIRST LADIES CERTAINLY PALE IN COMPARSION TO HER.

I am sooooo looking forward to having a President of the United States of America in the White House that has wisdom, vision, honesty, integrity, and good judgment and a First Lady that is intelligent, humble and has pose and grace. These are qualities that I have not seen since the John F. Kennedy administration. January 2009 I will be a proud American!

Obama '08/'12

Does anyone on the site ever read the other comments, or is it just a propaganda vehicle? The internet has a huge potential to transform the political dynamic, but slogans on this site are nothing more than virtual bumper stickers. They cause us all to disregard reading other's posts, and squander opportunities to have a real discussion. Is anyone's opinion swayed by anything said, or is this just a forum to vent? Forget the exclamation points, find your caps lock key, and grow up.

LeeAnn Taylor

If the Clintons (note the plural) get the nomination I will jump parties and vote for Mccain. Get it through your head the Clintons are immoral and don't deserve to be elected as dogcatcher. Obama rules!

To Nick: I'm Hillary supporters always. I'm successful professional woman. I have three lovely children who are outstanding in college and elementary school. Be careful with the words used to commend others since that truly reflect what kind person you are!

Your vote wil have change, vote for Barrack Obama!

Hillary never said voters were not important, she merely said they caucuses do not represent the voters as a whole. Caucuses are for a few hours a day and the average working stiff can't afford to take off work and go to a caucus. In Nevada where voters were allowed to vote at their work places she won. Must be why his supporters are students and upper income people. How about you Obama supporters explaining where Obama was when the important vote on Iran took place? In fact explain his voting record in the state senate as well. He has missed 1/3 of all votes in the US SENATE. How can he claim to be the best choice, encourage us all to be sure and vote, when he is absent a 1/3 of the time?

I'd vote for McCain over Obama if he's the nominee for the Dems.

I am totally perplexed by all the Hillary hate here and elsewhere on the Internet. Early in the race, I was undecided between Clinton and Obama and thought either would do a terrific job. But over time, I've decided to support Clinton, partly because I'm so turned off by Obama's supporters. All they seem to do is bash Clinton and speak vaguely of change, without ever articulating why believe their candidate is so much better equipped to lead our country.

Interestingly, when I was in college in the 90s (btw, yes - a number of Clinton supporters ARE educated.. imagine that!) and Bill Clinton was running for office, he too drew comparisons to JFK. Now here we are, 16 years later, and the Obama supporters have completely diminished his accomplishments and lumped him into the same category as the Bushes. Get a clue. While I recognize that Obama is intelligent, charismatic and a highly skilled orator, if you believe he's some knight in shining armor who's going to fix everything that's wrong with our country, then you're going to be in for a big disappointment. If he gets elected, it wouldn't surprise me if the next generation of voters feels about him the way so many of you Obama supporters feel about the Clintons.

What's up with the CNN/Obama lovefest? Not very objective reporting as far as I'm concerned. Let the voters decide and not call the race befoe it's over.

Majority rule, get a life! I've been voting in Va for 40 years always with an id. Watch the Clinton machine grind to a halt as Bill goes back to Harlem to chase black chick and Hilary goes back to being a Mother to Chelsie (Joke)

Super Delegates are UNPLEDGED. They can, and do, change their minds from time to time. And this means? CLINTON LOSES, of course!

Give Hillary the Soup Line…

NEWS FLASH:

HILLARY CLINTON was Endorsed by Former Ohio Senator/Astronaut JOHN GLENN!!! WOW what an endorsement. Thank you Senator Glenn.

Welcome Aboard!! Go Hillary!!! D.C. / VA / Maryland VOTE WITH INTELLIGENCE………..VOTE HILLARY CLINTON!!

NO FLUFF … ALL SUBSTANCE!!! RIGHT BEHIND YOU HILLARY ALL THE WAY TO THE WHITE HOUSE !!!

Obama offers the breath of fresh air this country needs at this moment in time. Go Obama!

this is one LATINO voting for OBAMA

Oh and Joe….the guy who wrote this…

"57% of you Hillary supporters didn't even graduate high school."

Well it doesn't really matter–your current president went to an ivy league school but I'm pretty sure he was a pot head. Maybe that explains some of his mindless decisions about the war on Iraq.

And I went to barackobama.com and noticed that some of the issues spelled out on his website directly CONTRADICT what he said at the debate and Hillary called him out on it.

Over 57% of Hillary's supporters ddin't graduate in High School lol, i wonder if they understand her issues.

Why Black people are voting for Obama he is not Jesse Jackson, He is 1st genaration of Mixed race he never endure racial discrimination.

I sincerely wish Senator Clinton a successful victory tonight. She would definitely make the best Presidential Candidate against Senator McCain.

Obama has no detail on anything more of fresh face, media and anti-Clinton supporters from both sides - May be he is good but I don’t see anything other than his 2004 speech and inspiring kids - Hope its not going to end up like Bush. We need some one to fix the economy like in 90’s and I don’t care who it is-

Hillary 08 !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Taking on the Republicans would be a cake walk for BO after going up against the Clintons. And Michelle Obama most certainly didn't act like "Queen of the White House". She simply answered the questions she was given. You guys are reaching.

barackobama.com

Rechi,

You are stretching the facts, just like Hillary's experience. I saw the same interview and she didn't speak as if she was already the first lady.

And this is no fantasy, this is CHANGE. Don't confuse the two.

What do we know about Obama? NOTHING…. and that is his only appeal…

Actions always speak louder than words.. and we have not seen any action.

Bottom line, we want Obama!

Hillary's recent comments about "activists not representing the electorate" is a sad way to end what could have been a closer contest. But because she chose to play race card politics again, she has distanced herself even further from the mainstream thinking of the American people. Sounds like she's almost finished digging digging that hole for herself… hope she left enough room for Bill in there.

VOTE OBAMA OR…?

"Everyone wants to be able to say, "I was there when we elected Barack Obama President of the United States.""

No, not everyone. I'd actually prefer to say "I was there when we elected Hillary Clinton, the first female (more than 50% of the population) president."

Obama is a charming, intelligent man who lacks experience (a state legislator who has only been a senator for a few years) and is woefully unspecific on the issues. He won't debate Hillary in February b/c he knows debates showcase how detailed and specific her thinking is.

I'll admit he has charisma and is winning people over, but that doesn't mean he is ready to be president.

If Hillary isn't on the ticket, McCain gets my vote because Obama isn't ready.

I BELIEVE THE CLINTONS HAVE HAD THEIR SAY, IT IS TIME FOR A CHANGE IN THIS COUNTRY, TIME FOR AMERICA TO BEGIN TO HEAL, FROM ALL HER WOUNDS AND FRUSTRATIONS, WE MUST COME TOGETHER AS ONE, WITH ONE VOICE AND ONCE CHOICE, THAT IS WHAT I THINK OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT WILL BRING, NOT JUST CHANCE IN THINGS, BUT CHANGE IN THE HEARTS OF AMERICAN PEOPLE TO PULL TOGETHER AND STAND UP AND MAKE THIS COUNTRY WORTH LIVING IN, PEOPLE WE HAVE GOT TO MAKE A DIFFERENCE, WE HAVE GOT TO SUPPORT VISION OF CHANGE, SOMETHING FRESH, SOMETHING NEW, EIGHT IS THE NUMBER OF NEW BEGINNINGS, SO LETS AMERICANS AFFECT THAT CHANGE AND VOTE FOR OBAMA COME NOVEMBER,

Obama, yes we can, yes we can. Yo we can!!!!!!!! OBAMA 08
Michelle is a beautiful, strong, educated, hard working, loving, dedicated woman
and athe two little girls are simply beautiful. Someone new deserves to live in the
White House in 2008 OBAMA 2008

I vote for Hillary, vote for the talent and not for slogans

Ron Paul is the only honorable candidate…..Can't wait for the MARCH ON DC…Go Ron Paul…!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The only change Obama would bring would be the obvious change….maybe if he would elaborate on this SO-CALLED "change" he's going to bring, I would feel more inclined to vote for him. Since he doesn't, I VOTE for HILLARY. Hillary implemented more change for health care when Bill was in office and she was just the first lady then! Imagine what she could do as prez. Don't be ignorant america, don't vote for Obama because you can relate to him, or because he's "just like you". If you want someone just like you, then why don't YOU run for president? Me? I would rather have someone running our country that was smarter and had more experience than me, someone like HILLARY. VOTE FOR HILLARY!!!!!!!!

Vote for Senator Obama. He is the Man for the Job.

IF PEOPLE WOULD CHECK OUT BORACKS PAST THEN THE VOTES WOULD NOT BE GOING HIS WAY!!!!!!!
CHARACTER MEANS A LOT! THE MEDIA HAS PAINTED BORACK AS THE GOLDEN BOY! OR WHATS POPULAR AT THE MOMENT!
THE SAD PART IS THAT MANY PEOPLE FALL FOR THE HYPE AND JOIN WHAT THEY PERCEIVE AS POPULAR!
BIG MISTAKE!
IF BORACK BECOMES THE NOMINEE I WILL NOT VOTE AT ALL!
I CANNOT VOTE FOR A REPUBLICAN!
AND I WILL NOT VOTE FOR SOMEONE THAT I FEEL IS SO WRONG FOR THIS COUNTRY!
HE HAS NO PROVEN TRACK RECORD!
AND A SHAKY PAST AND FRIENDS!!!!!!

I AM WITH HILLARY CLINTON!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Proud to have voted for Obama today!!!!

Obama Richardson 08!!!!!!!

I am an educated white lady ,62 and i cannot for the next 8 years listen
to Hillary Clintons voice and same old message on the TV. Sorry folks, I just cannot. It is a heartwrenching awareness. but real.

Ya know, it is so sad when CNN has to inform the public what the "Potomac " is.

Talk bout yer need fer better educashun!

How can Hillary stand for anything new. She takes her donations from same old Pacs, talks the same old talk. and has the same sleazy blabber mouth husband. There will be nothing new if she wins except a gender change in the white house. With her divisive personality very little will get done. Obama will at least have an oppertunity to create real change, bring people together and forge a new road for America.

I will not vote for Hillary if she becomes the nominee. I don't understand why the dems are keep looking to the past to solve future problems. Take a look at the Al Gore and John Kerry. Hillary represents the past and all the partisan fighting. I dont want another 90's politics. This is why I voted for change.

Mina aanestaisin Obamaa!

I hope Hillary cleans up the field when Texas votes on March 4. She is still the only candidate out there that we can trust. The others are fluff and watermelon talk, as the saying goes. Another: The proof is in the pudding.

Go Hillary,

you people have taken off 7 post that were all facts about obama and you say that your not anti clinton or other candidates thats a lie from pitts of hell

Jacques Casimir ! I wish i could use my data and my words but it seems as CNN will not allow me to post the turth ! your data is flawed and you know it you are just adding and have not taken into account what will happen in texas in reality you want to make it out that most of texas will allow Obama his victory ? dang CNN you arte so mean to Clinton supporters i have tried on all the blogs why do you not let me say the truth ?????

It will take two presidents in the white house to save the planet.

I cann't beleive what I just heard Obamacans. He's got his own tribe now. Lets get it over and just put him on MT. Rushmore!!!!!! why wait. What a JOKE!!!!!!

ATTENTION ALL HILLARY SUPPORTERS. You were right we all need to vote for the person with the most experience who can lead on day 1. That's why I'm voting for John McCain. Think of it this way, the boat is going down fast and each candidate has a lifeboat, which lifeboat are you getting in? The person with the most experience, and since you got rid of Dodd, Biden and Richardson the three with the most experience I'm getting in john's boat.

I did not know Hillary is 60 years old!!! We want change
McCain is 72or like74! Give me a break!!
It's Barack only 46. Come on - he's the wave of the future. The republicians should rally behind Huckabee ( don't know how young he is). Out with the old age, old politics, old way of running the political scene.

It's amazing how many Clinton supporters speak about Obama having little experience. Hmmmmmm, doesn't occur to me that Bill had a lot of experience either, yet you apparently think he did a great job. That pokes all sorts of holes in your "not enough experience" statements.

Vote Obama.

When you go to the polls remember that Hillary Clinton is the best candidate by far. She is much more capable in the arena of foreign policy as well as homefront issues: the economy, the ONLY universal health care plan, the environment, security and immigration. Hillary has had the original ideas. Obama piggy backs on her and acts as if his ideas are his own. Obama is a great preacher. Listen to him talk when he's not preaching, though. He has trouble thinking on his feet when it's not a rehearsed and oft-repeated "sermon." Then listen to Hillary. She knows what she's talking about. She has genuine plans that WILL WORK born of experience and brilliance. Obama might be a smart preacher with an idea of a new government but he's not the best one to bring that vision about. Hillary has a similar vision but she's focusing on how to bring that vision about rather than only rousing an emotional response in citizens. Go Hillary!

Bottom line who ever win P.A., Tx., and Oh. will be the next president of the United States, right now Hillary has won the popular vote by more than 500,000 votes (this is a fact that seems to escape everyone.) So if she wins those 3 huge states the popular vote will go even further in her favor. I can't see how anyone who believes in democracy could resist this fact.

Once again, that Obama supporters are spitting their venom. Can anyone out there please tell me how this is 'uniting' for the Democratic party? There have been plenty of instances of mud-slinging on both sides. Time to give it a rest.

Quote by Barney, Long Island
"If you have a bad leak in your plumbing, a big leak in your roof or need radical surgery, who do you want to work for you? A novice or an experienced professional. You should be picking an experienced nominee to work on the serious world problems facing our nation. Don't cry about what is about to happen if Obama makes it. We are doomed!!!"

I'd rather have some one who can bring together the best doctors.

In this case, Obama seems to be the one.

People should really put the inexperience crap aside, since when did the presidency become a man show?

Hilary Clinton is the voice of experience and change. Part of the change includes the fact that she has found her voice and listens to the voices of "we the people". I am repeating my message on this blog regarding Michelle Obama on Laryy KIng Live last night. She is looking forward to effecting changes if her husband is elected President. " Duel Presidency" people! The Obamas use the word "Change" as a mantra for their "movement" into what? Where is the substance of their message? Hillary Clinton has the experience and the wisdom to heal The United States Of America after the disasterous Bush Presidency. Hillary Clinton will provide the leadership we need NOW.

I believe Obama is a good leader, but I feel he needs more knowledge and experience before he can run our great nation. It is not even about Race, Creed, or Color.. Its about electing an experienced LEADER.. If we are to elect a LEADER that will Finally LEAD this nation in the direction it needs, We all should be voting for Hillary Clinton!!! HILLARY 2008!!!!!!!! GO Hillary… Regardless we all have our own views which is what makes the United States Such a great nation!!!

I hate the comments that say all of Obama wins doesn't reflect the State. He has was 20 out of 31 states in these primaries and Caucuses….How do 20 out of 31 states not reflect what America Wants. And Experience….funny how no one from the clinton campaign can tell all the years of Service. Lets stop the bickering and let the voters decide. We have 3 states today and we have for more this month. Lets see what America says tonite and the rest of February.

Blind followers for Obama….he is the best cult leader yet….yay…we get to ask no questions so we don't have to confront uncomfortable answers….yay…..woo hoo….Obama is going to make everything great…I will even get a sweetheart land deal form a slum lord like my hero Obama…yay…finally he has come…who needs universal health coverage…hope and change will heal everything…yay…

Obama has been making a LOT of promises that he most likely won't be able to keep. He is going to stumble and fall, IF he makes it past the Republicans.
You are all following "your leader" into the political abyss.
Something interesting I heard - all of the "Independent white guys" who have apparently been voting for Obama - well, they are going to vote Republican when the general election comes around, and McCain is the choice.
How would a Republican ever vote Democratic?
It's a strategy to rip the Democrats wide open. And sexism still rules………
If you think Obama is any different than any other politician, think again.
He's scouting out delegates just like everyone else.
He will come and SPEAK to your area, but only if it's delegate rich.
Otherwise, have you seen him???????
Get real people.

Everyone give Hillary your vote!!!!
Clinton/Obama ticket is what this country needs. Help do the democrats and this country right. Clinton/Obama then he can run again in 8 years giving this country a Democrat president for 16 years. This is what our country needs to fix the mess its in. We get experiance and Change lets do it right . VOTE HILLARY!!!!!!

Go Obama

Rep that call themselves Obamacans..there is no party loyalty with those people.so why even claim to be a rep….in Nov they may vote rep ..PLEASE stop saying I am female and I am white and I voted for Obama..I dont care what u r ..just vote…there are no bragging rights here.

I also had to show ID today

Hillary's gotten most of her experience being over Bill's shuolders…that doesn't make you qualified to run the country. She has less actual experience as an "elected" government official as Obama does. Check the record. She has made a habit of playing word games. If she loses today, she'll indeed resort to dirty politics, and make race a topic to paint Obama as a "black" candidate. Obama has shown that he knows who he is, and doesn't have to shout to the world that he's African American. He is the best person for the job. Obama hasn't made a point of labeling Hillary as a "woman" candidate. She's another person running for the office. We need a President with integrity, and Obama brings that. Besides..do you really thing Bill won't be running the show behind the scenes.

Obama can't unite anyone. His supporters have drawn a clear line. They will refuse to vote for anyone but him. Obama has divided the democratic party. Only true democrats not swayed by media or rock star status will vote for a candidate with solid issues. Vote for the candidate that supports the real democrats. Popularity does not equal a great president. Heck, Brittany Spears is popular, but that does not mean I would want her for president. Get real people, think about our future. We need someone strong enough to clean up the mess Bush left behind. Obama is NOT the one, not yet, he needs more experience. Vote Hillary and bring our country back!

release your tax receipts!

To "do your research"……….
I have master's degree, and working on my doctorate.
What is your education?
I think your comment alone answers that question……
The big difference is we DID do the research (because we ARE smart),
and found that she is the best candidate.
Unlike yourself, who obviously follows the pied piper…..think on your own lately?

If clinton loses, I refuse to vote on November, and maybe in another 4 years as well.

Has anyone else noticed that whenever a photo of a voter is posted in the media, the voter is an African American?

Karen from Minnesota: I absolutely agree with you on what you just posted. The way it looks right now Obama will probably win. The more I listen to Obama the more I begin to feel that, wow! he's really good. But the problem is that most people who vote for him forget the fact that talk is cheap…because Obama put dream into their heads. Well, there is nothing wrong with dreaming but c'mon you gotta get real here. I was never a big fan of Hillary but when compared their qualification side by side, it's a no brainer. I will go with the one with experience. Some people said experience doesn't mean much…from what planet are you from? Whoever said that probably never had a real job. I watched 3 debates and I have to say that Hillary was very smart when answering questions. Again, I never liked her until recently. She is a very smar woman. Obama was so-so in most debates. In fact he 's not even a good speaker when having to answer impromptu questions. And he wants to be a leader of the country…c'mon. Most people don't see that. What's up with that? It's ashamed.

What's with the negative comments from Democrats about Democrats? It's a great choice, and may the best man/woman win. However, I am not particularly pleased with the idea that if Obama wins in the primaries, the superdelegates could override the choice and choose Clinton, or vice-versa. Donna Brazile, who is in fact a superdelegate, said last week that such a result would cause her to quit the Democratic Party, and I suspect she isn't the only one. I also do not like Mrs. Clinton's brushing off all these primaries and caucuses as if those voters are irrelevant. They certainly are NOT irrelevant, and I believe it was Ms. Brazile who pointed out that A win is a win. Amen on that!

I voted for Obama through Democrats Abroad, but if the Democrats manage not to destroy each other a la 1968, I will support the nominee of the party, as will most of the rest of us. But if they decide to get personal and negative, well…. Don't blow it, Democrats, for God's sake!

I voted for Hilary Clinton today and I take full responsibility for my vote, knowing that I thoroughly researched each and every issue, and I came to the conclusion that is best for my family, and I also realize that my vote will not only affect my family but all of my fellow Americans. This is not a joke, although voting is my right it is also my responsibility to cast my vote based on research, facts, and overall effectiveness of the Candidate, not to be swayed by race or gender and I am a College Educated African American Female contrary to the media and their so called polling.

People Please Think, If Hillary Wins She will become Vice President and bill
Clinton President

The Red state of Texas, and often red Ohio are all the sudden holding more weight than the red states Obama has won.

Funny how things are spun.

Hillary Clinton will only lose these states: Virginia, Washington DC, and Maryland because of the black vote. It is a shame, because Obama will get this vote without any scrutinization. Why doesn't the media talk more about this disparity, only because Obama is black? Isn't this a form of racism? Why isn't anyone challenging this? I haven;t heard any international policy questions directed to Obama in any debate. Nor have anyone pressed Obama on the specifics of his alleged economic plan. Doesn't details matter anymore, or are people more well off than we realized? This country does not need a President who will be experiencing growing pains with a country needing immediate attention to many problems. Wake up people. McCain is too old, and Obama has no experience.
Huckabee - separation of church and state.

Hillary for President! Because it makes sense.

Barrack Obama is your President

The only people talking about race is the media and the Obama campaign. Get it right. His campaign always know when not to worry and that's when their is a high population of African Americans. Hillary is not stupid. Funny how her supporters are hard-working Americans that have jobs where they can't leave to caucus. So who are his supporters again?

I am fromCanada .I have been watching your primeries , because not only will the Americans be affected so will the world espeacialy Canada. My feelings and thoughts tell that to elect Hilery sould just be more of the same.She owes too many people who financed her run. Lobbyists whould have a field day. So between them ane Bill it wouldn' t be her running the country.
Where as Obama is a new face that will be facing the world and he seens more than willing to talk to all of the leaders of the world in order to solve our problems.How would anyone feel if someone went through four or five people to approach you about something so important as the fate of our world.Deplomacy is important and should not be trusted to second in command, He also shows real concern for the American people rich or poor What more a country ask for
So I say give the man a chanch I don't think that you will be disappointed.

Respectly Vey

LeeAnn - Obama supporters don't give a rat's butt about the Clinton's. We stand for what he stands for - a change in politics. This is not a game to us, we are through with all that. Unfortunately, it seems to be brought up over and over by the Clinton machine that 'I'm better than him, na na nana na'. We're over you all and the Clinton's. We're on the victory train - the Change Express!!

Oh Yes WE Can!

Colleen Witt
You are doing the right thing. He is phenomenal. He is a true leader , getting up this much of support, financial contributions and above all the organizational skills to thwart the well oiled Clinton machine.

Go Hillary!!!!!!!!!!!!You are the best.

I was against the war from the start, even though I didn't really have to vote for it. But, I don't belive in my values all too much because I have voted to fund the war every time it came up. Now thats what I call change. This is a man with no moral principals whatsoever. He is a moron just like the rest of our politicians. Change this, hope that, of the future, not of the past. Politics is politics my friends, doesn't matter if they are new or old, it's still much of the same. Last I looked 2+2=4, just as did 40 years ago when i was in the 1st grade.

I live in Montgomery County, Maryland (just north of Washington, DC). There was almost no one at my polling place when I voted this morning. Several friends reported the same situation at their polling places. I hope that the Obama supporters didn't become too complacent from his recent string of victories and the predictions of a sweep in the Potomac (Beltway) Primaries. Remember, there are still about 3 hours left to vote in Maryland. I urge everyone in the Free State to do so.

The Bush-Clinton dynasty??? Oh come on — you can't just clump all people in the establishment together as devils. What does Hillary have to do with Bush? That's so moronic. Remember, Obama voters — if he won, he would then become part of the establishment you all rail against — while being pleased as punch when the establishment validates him — i.e. Ted Kennedy et al!

I'm for Clinton and proud of it. She doesn't just ORATE change. She makes it. And as she said, she will not be knocked out of the ring.

Hang in there Hillary.

You wrong. Most Hillary's supporters are high educated and hard working people !!!!!!
Master degree in PE votes for Hillary !!!!!!

Bottom Line we want Hillary!

This is for Amy

Obama and Edwards were not on the ballot in Florida. It was a computer error.

I just finished working here in Idaho where 81% of mostly white Idahoans caucused for Obama.

Don't tell me that my state doesn't count.

No one even darkened the doors to campaign in Idaho, but Senator Obama who drew over 14, 000 plus 2-4, 000 turned away.

I have independents and Obamacans voting for him in our huge turn out.

Hillary didn't even open an office or take notice of Idahoans.

I think that Bill was a good president in ways, but don't forget the no NAFTA promises, Hillary and Bill are part of the old ways.

Let's do things better and leave crooked politics and deals behind.

Elect someone who can bring us together across party lines.

See the article in Christianity Today for insights into a insightful and Christian man
who can lead us out of this partisan mess.

If you are a true DEMOCRAT I would hope you can see how divided we are as a party. Just look at these blogs and comment, bickering about who we think is better, the truth of the matter is both Hillary and Obama have had record turnouts on both sides. True some states are more Obama and some or more Hillary but if you count they are high turnouts for both all the way around. Why can we not truely UNITE and bring this party together with both of their names on one ticket to win this fall. If you say Obama would never be her VP then it shows his cocky attitude and that his message of UNITY, CHANGE AND HOPE was a crock. If you say Hillary would not be his VP then you are saying that she was never for trying to help the people of the US and health reforms. I think both of these people would be the others VP, I think Hillary would ask Obama but I think Obama would not ask Hillary because he thinks he can make it on his own because Kerry and Kennedy is pushing him, I think he would be greatly mistaken. THE MAIN THING IS WE HAVE TO UNITE AND STOP THIS. If we do not John McCain will be the next President.

HILLARY CLINTON FOR PRESIDENT! NO FLOWERY PREACHING! NO RAP MUSIC VIDEOS! JUST STRONG CONVICTION AND EXPERIENCE TO LEAD THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! VOTE HILLARY CLINTON!

I am an Obama supporter and I urge all Obama supporters to STAY POSITIVE. That's that Obama wants from his supporters. Independents are reading these comments and it's very important that we do not lose sight of how important it is, as supporters, to not demonize the other candidates. We are the change too. Go OBAMA 08

HILLARY CLINTON FOR PRESIDENT! NO FLOWERY PREACHING! NO RAP MUSIC VIDEOS! JUST STRONG CONVICTION AND EXPERIENCE TO LEAD THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA! VOTE HILLARY CLINTON!

Amy, Kazoo: your characterization of Obama's actions in Michigan are rather untrue and unfortunate. Clearly, all candidates had planned to remove their names from the ballot in order to align themselves with DNC party rules. Hillary pulled a fast one and left hers on at the last minute. For this, you trumpet her as some sort of hero and champion of the people??? ridiculous. After Edwards and Obama learned of Hillary's sneaky move, they kept their names on the FL ballots, not to be fooled twice. To act like Obama doesn't care about MI voters is insane.

It's just yet another example of Clinton deception, spun to look like something positive. And the sad part is, you fell for it.

As hard as I try I still don't know what Barack Obama believes in. Since he is well educated and aware, I think that this lack of information and his position on the issues is intentional. When I hear her speak, she is well informed and has a position on every single issue. I sense that Barack Obama is very naive about foreign policy. Aside from being for getting out of Iraq, his lack of information on foreign policy really scares me. I read an article in which it said that Michelle Obama actually encouages her husband not to talk about the isssues, but to carry on a campaign like a rock star, chrming the electorate with his boyish good looks. There is no comparison between the 2 candidates. Hillary is the superior candidate, particularly against McCain.

Hillary has been up against the Republicans and has survived. If Obama wins, and they find other things about him that could destroy him.

Most importantly, though several debates I hear substance about Hillary's views and not much at all about Obama's position on the issues that are beyond generalities. He has conducted his campaign like a rock star to lure the younger voters and encouraged a cult of personality. But there is little substance to what he says except about getting out of the Iraq War. What does he think about Afganistan, which is the same as it was when we got there the first time? He has no known position on this at all.

Whoever wins the democratic race, let's just hope that the greater American population are as opened minded as it thinks it is, and has the courage to actually vote for a black or female as president. McCain must be rubbing his hands together!

Change We believe in………………Go Obama

Why do the political pundits include in the delegate count the superdelegates when they haven't actually voted? It is deceiving. Besides, the superdelegates won't be needed because Barak will reach the 2,025 mark by March 4th.

With 2,295 of 4,049 delegates decided…each candidate must have 2,025 delegates to win. That's a lie & The U.S.A. has a big beef with that!!!

The U.S. has a problem with that, because FL & MI don't count. If they did, there would still be 4,049 delegates left to be decided. That's not the case!!

Since they don't count, why not say the truth?

Why not tell the U.S.A. that you'd need a mere 1,805 delegates to win the nomination, since there are actually only 3,607 delegates available!?!

Again, all because of no FL & no MI.

I think it's legitimate to ask, because of how close the race is. The numbers stem from 720 Superdelegates & 2,887 Pledged Delegates; as apposed to the alleged 796 Sup's & alleged 3,253 Pledge's.

It is or it isn't. But, it's not both. So, which one is it AP??? We The People need to Wake Up!! The only way that can happen is if the truth be told. Let the votes stand for something rather than nothing; and let them be reported as such.

Vote for Obama. There are lots of woman I know who are supporting Obama for President. Woman's meetings I have attended have woman from all age categories and ethnic groups. I would like to see a woman be president but it has to be a leader and a great woman. I don't want Hillary just because she is a woman. Barack Obama is the right person for this moment in history and lots of woman know this and will vote for Obama.

Hey, guess who failed to report to the Senate to vote today against giving telecom companies your private information? That's right—- Hillary Clinton. She was the only Senator that didn't show to vote against giving away your right to privacy.

Go Figure.

She was too busy pandering for Latino votes in South Texas.

This is unbelievable, fantasy beyong fantasy. Last night, Michelle Obama was on Larry King Live and she spoke as she was already the queen of White House. Gosh, I just can't believe this fantasy of hers, I just hope and pray that she drowns in her own fantasy and comes to reality that it is not over until it is really over.

Nigel - any policy including minimum wage is a step away from free enterprise but necessary as low income people need to survive. Its true that all business should aim to be efficient as possible but…some are. Should the fed goverment's lack of monetary policy control be tied to the minimum wage? That is one major reason in what is driving prices up. Tell a grocer or a diner your argument. I think they won't like what you would say to them. If they go out of business, even the workers are in worse shape. We need real change, not a mirage of promises. Hillary Clinton is the only candidate detail oriented enough to really think through the problems we currently face.

Being an ousider, and looking the whole voting process, it is really surprised to know that how shallow most american are! they treat their theri vote for President may well decide their food on the table as an American Idol contest, like a cool thing, instead of a serious thing, it is funny that most young voters claim they have higher education degree, adn they act so naive. america is going down, probably will go down further, if you electe another Bush as your President, which is unqualified, false promise giving person. I think you should have thousands good-looking guy(even some of you yourself) , with the help of some writer, can give a nice, "Inspiring" speech, but how much do you know about them? do you really trust them managing your money and future?

voted for Obama here in MD. And for those of you that claim Maryland is such a small state please keep in mind there are 70 delegates NOT including the super delegates. Virginia has 83 I believe. MD is a smaller state but one with a pretty decent population count.

Vote for Obama!

Still waiting for CNN to report on the John Glenn endorsement of Senator Clinton.

Proudly voted for Obama today in VA. If he doesn't get the nomination and win the general election, I think my participation in politics is over. We'll be truly lost, stuck in a fake government ruled by the Bush-Clinton dynasty.

Go to barackobama.com. All the issues are there, in plain English, and in full detail. I shouldn't be surprised, though. 57% of you Hillary supporters didn't even graduate high school.

It seems some Dems are more concerned with beating the Clintons than they are with beating the republicans. The party is split in two. All of you hollier-than-thou Obama types will need Clinton supporters if he gets the nod. Why don't you think about that before you post most more Hillary hate. IT WILL COME BACK TO HURT YOU.

Go sista Hillary!

I'm an OBAMA MAMA!
Hillary is definitely up to the task, but she cannot sway the world opinion like Barack can. She's a likeable person and gives no one reason to hate her, but she cannot bring the parties AND the country together like Obama can.
The anti-Hillary's out there will do us all wrong and vote Republican if she wins the nomination, then we'll be more down the toilet than we are now. Can the country be duped again like W did to us? Hopefully we won't shame our country again.

Why should I vote for Hillary? I'm not in Texas or Ohio so what does she care?

I had to show my ID too…

Because deanne - superdelegates have the option to change their mind at any time wereas the delegate number will not change. Once this Obama train starts rolling full speed, you're going to see MANY changes. Right now the superdelegates stand at:
Clinton - 224
Obama - 132

Most of hers were pledged prior to 1/11/08 and before the train came to town. After 1/11/08, they were virturally tied until Super Tuesday were Obama is now getting more pledges every day than she is.
Want proof?? go to demconwatch.blogspot.com.
Updated everyday and more current than the MSM which is inaccurate most of the time. Also has lists of unpledged delegates.
Get educated !!

Hillary is crippled as a candidate on the most important issue of this election….
George W. Bush took our nation to WAR.
There is no higher duty or responsibility for any President than taking this country to WAR.
NONE !
On that critical issue - more critical than any other
Clinton voted YES.
Now, if she believes that we should have gone to war…like many, many patriotic Republicans and millions of Americans…all she has to do is say so. Just say she was for the invasion and war.
But she won't.
I'm sure because she knows to say so now would kill her.
So why can't she do as John Edwards did? Just admit that her vote was a mistake?
The truth is sometimes very simple.
She voted YES to position herself for this election cycle. There is no other explanation.
That is an act of personal cowardice and her deceit since then disqualifies her from the highest office in the land where she would have the power to try it again.
She is a good legislator - she should stay in the Senate -and in the Senate, Bill is kept at bay.
She blew her shot at the White house by stepping over the line beyond cunning…
And, now - still fearful of McCain's attack - she steadfastly refuses to admit that her vote was a mistake -(unlike John Edwards who is an honest man).
WE DO NOT NEED ANOTHER PERSON IN OUR WHITE HOUSE THAT CANNOT ADMIT A MISTAKE.
Clinton must be denied the nomination.

After today Clinton well be be behind even with the super delegates.

No the super delegates only count if there should be a tie going into the Democratic Convention. Otherwise, they do not count. The general pop vote and delegates count first and foremost. So, if Obama reaches 2,025 based strictly on the gen. pop. vote and delegates before Hillary, he wins the nomination. Go Obama!

Deanne–
because superdelegates can change their minds, so it's worth separating them out to show the difference. It's not spin, it's analysis.

Deanne
"Superdelegates" is called "rigging" in other countries. This is not the way you elect someone in a democratic way, you are simply buying votes !!

I think if Obama is elected there will be a lot of disappointed people as he has made many promises, is NOT looking at finances and is creating false hopes. he cannot deliver large programs without the $$$$$$ It doesn't take any brains to figure that out.

As the ad used to say: "Promise her anything but …"

Being a good president is about fiscal responsibility as well as about taking care of the needs of its citizens. They have to balance!

I can see a lot of bumper stickers declaring: "Don't blame me I voted for…"

Flip flop here flip flop there. This state is more important than that blah, blah, blah, so HillBill says. I'm tired of the fraudulent Clintons. If you think of scandal you are not prepared for the real story that has yet to be revealed about her campaign contributors -the health care insurance companies and the entrenched PACs!
Vote Obama 08!

To Rudy Tiggs: In defense of John, Bill Clinton said (and you can look it up on CNN), "Even Jesse Jackson won South Carolina." If that isn't an insult to Obama as a black man then I don't know what is. I try not to go around "bashing" the candidates, so that's all I'll say on that one. Bill goofed and has since apologized, but with his experience (as Hillary is claiming they have) Bill should have known better. Hey, we will see what happens tonight. There is still a long ways to go. Thx.

John in Columbus, OH
You are absolutely right, if we stay on this "race" course, in 20 yrs we will be far behind many countries like India and China. With this recession (Bush may disagree ), U.S is already lagging behind. We should discard race from all documents (white, black, brown, blue !!). What nonsense is this, all people are equal and all are Americans. This United we stand, divisive politics makes us down the slippery slope.

Hillary has experience, what experience as the "first lady" ? Obama has more experience than Hillary in state and US senate. Imagine if not for "Bill Clintons" name, there is no way Hillary would be in this position. Obama was nobody 3yrs ago, and built up this phenomenal movement. Why did Hillary authorized this merciless Iraq war if she has EXPERIENCE, !! Presidents need to have good Judgment, than a CV full of artificial experience.

There is nothing that the Republicans can do to Hillary that they haven't already done over the years. So in many ways she would be the better candidate.

That, and the fact that Obama does not have experience, (otherwise he would get into specifics of how he plans to 'change' Washington) are some of the many reasons why Hillary should be the nominee……

If Obama is the nominee we have an obligation to vote for the best qualified candidate, John McCain. Look at stances on the issues and experience and vote for who has the most of both - a vote should be logic based not emotionally based and definitely NOT party based. Don't kid yourselves, McCain will win easily in an Obama vs. McCain race (and the Republicans know it). We need to wipe out these ridiculous party lines and start voting for the best candidate rather than the one that can give the best speech.

John - re the minimum wage

Are you serious? Of course the minimum wage should be indexed, as should the tax brack
