Pretty typical. The Clintons have always done lowlife sneaky underhanded things to get what they want. Why should anyone expect anything different from her now.

well that was interesting, but how 'bout some more information? Sounds like kind of a big deal, but I can't really tell what its all about…

That's pretty low to pick that moment to do that. Typical, I'm not surprised at all by the Obama campaign people.

Obama is desperate now .. hahahahahahhahhaahahha

Obama had to call out the lawyers again. Well it worked when he used them in Illinois to get everyone else kicked off the ballot so he could run unopposed.

Why is the Obama camp losing it? Obama is being rude to reporters, now his surrogate is being rude in front of reporters.

Texas is considering moving towards a primary process only. Why doesn't Obama go complain to the Texas people who are complaining about the Texas process.

This primary is getting worse by the second. All this in fighting isn't helping the party. If Dems can do this to each other, what are the presidential elections gonna be like? Calling it a circus would be a compliment

This is just the start. Hillary will not accept the voting publics decision. This process will end up in the courts and will drag on forever. Typical to keep on nagging long after the argument is over.

why exactly are people from the Obama campaign crashing calls, and acting as the bully you didn't want at the pool party?

The caucus system here in Texas is mangled. It is a burden. And this lawyer saying "Complaining about every caucus you lose" was a bit premature since the caucus's arn't even finished yet. (I have a roommate there now).

Stop snooping into calls you're not wanted in. This is just as bad as Bush's warrantless wire tapping.

Does anyone else think its immature and against protocol for a lawyer of one party to slyly invite himself to someone else's conference call? I'd consider that a vote changer in my book… along with the other shady things that have come up with people in Obama's campaign. I've had enough of the surprises and shanks. I'm going with experience. God Bless Mrs. President.

Someone needs to stand up to the Clinton voting game and tactics. The Clinton campaign has tried to strong arm Texas since the beginning in their training manual. Hillary is not going to steal or bully herself into this nomination.

Who-llary? lol. Get over it people. She's done. lol.

Well, you know..action speaks louder than words! I am sure Obama will not take responsible for his Lawyer's action because he never does! Anyway, that tells the American people who are childish in this election. Supporters of Obama learn from their Master! Transparency? Get out of here! Talk the talk without action!
Hillary 08!

FINALLY, THE POLITICAL BATTLE LINE BETWEEN AFRICAN AMERICANS AND LATINOS HAS BEEN DRAWNS. IT IS NOW CONFIRMED THAT THERE IS RIVALRY BETWEEN THESE TWO MINORITY GROUPS. LET'S SEE HOW THIS WOULD END !!!!!

LOOKS LIKE THE HILLARY CLINTON IS DOING WELL. COULD TAKE THREE. CANT WAIT TO HEAR THE OBAMA VOTERS CRY AS USUAL.

This is a new dirty trick from OBAMA again!!!

We are done with this guy!

Hillary—Go Go Go 2008!

why did he call into Clinton's conf call? How low is that?

Remember Jack Nicholsons line? Well the Clinton campaign "Can't handle the truth!" Texas was supposed to be their firewall. Well the voters sure doused out that theory.

Now that the truth is finally coming out about Obama his people are scrambling to prop up the teflon man ("all hat no cattle" indeed)

Obama is one odd man and now his campaign is
bearing it's ugly teeth!!!!

Geez, grow up. You aren't helping your candidate with votes with actions like that. Do I hear similarities to 'Watergate'?

It is so ironic that it took hundreds of years for a woman and an African-American to be considered viable candidates for the Office of the President of the United States of America and that they will each contribute to each other not winning in November. Hillary will find it difficult to gather enough support from the African-American community her husband helped alienate and Obama will find it difficult to capture the Latino voters, elderly women voters, and non-college educated voters that Hillary has attracted. I feel that if the squabbles continue between Clinton and Obama, most democrat voters will not vote in November, thus, giving the victory to McCain.

CNN - please post this. This is my 10th attempt in trying to get a post up on your website.

When hard work is given and experience does mean so much why oh why is it so hard to trust Mrs. Clinton/Hillary… she deserves our vote and has worked very hard for it too… No race, No gender, Just rewards for a Hard working Humane being… Think about it??

Could Bauer answer "how is giving away the forms several hours before that need to be distributed only inside the caucus sites after polls close is not illegal"????

BTW, crashing into someone else call without being invited shows how desperate Obama's campaign is after losing big today…

All the while the Obama campaign filed lawsuits in Ohio. It's not just immature. Its hypocritical.

Hillary's a crook. She'll steal this election yet-

Good for the Obama Camp… Clinton did this same old trickery crap in Nevada until she won…What happened to all that talk about voters being blocked ect…. geez what PAIN… She had to win ALL STATES tonight with BIG LEADS to stay in the running she LOST VERMONT….OH WELL.!!!….but wait she will spin that too….watching her campaign is like watching a slow and painful death.

wow,
As time goes on, more Obama negatives come out.
Scary if its a trend, especially if he's the democratic candidate!

Good job OBAMA camp!… keep them honest! The Clintons have discredited the United States long enough.

The caucus system is extremely outdated and flawed. I am from Iowa, I should know. Any state who has a caucus prevents everyone from even having a chance to be heard. Most people nowadays ahve to work, have more responsibilities at home and some even work more than one job. In the old days, this was not the case, nor did you have as many households where both parents worked. If everyone really cared to make sure everyone got to vote, there would ONLY be primaries and the polls would be open 12-16 hours to allow everyone, no matter when they worked an opportunity to vote. Anything less than this is Un-American.

There are a couple of thoughts that come to mind reading this.

First, with the pre-caucus instructions Clinton did for her supporters in how to posture based on "fairness" that raises the question as to how this now seems to have been setting the stage for her campaign now making such claims as this one.

Second, is it true the Clinton campaign only complains about the process when they lose?

ALL VOTES MUST COUNTED.

THERE IS NO DIRTY TRICKS HERE.

YES CHANGE IS WINNING.

YES OBAMA WILL WIN.

What is she trying to do, sue her way into the nomination,
oh please

And all of a sudden the people of America are realizing that this Obama guy is not who they thought he was! Surprise, surprise.

Come on people, go to church for inspiration. Vote for Hillary for REAL SOLUTIONS!

Another example of poor decision-making and attempts to indirectly threaten someone by inverting himself into a phone conversation that he had no business listening to by the Obama campaign. Reminds me of Big Brother. He's getting scared now…..

Let's not forget that Obama's campaign also explored filing lawsuits against the Texas caucus system, but decided to wait pending the results. That's sneaky and underhanded, but then again, when you have a campaign that tells the foreign leaders one thing, and the population something else, what do you expect? The Obama campaign turned out to be the most like the old, Washington politics that they claimed to be against. What a shame.

I just attended my local caucus in Texas (precinct 60 Pearland, TX) and the caucus workers did struggle with the numbers that showed up.

It was disorganized.

It is pretty remarkable that this lawyer from the Obama campaign would crash this call. That's pretty low.

I HATE TO SEE THE PRESIDENCY SLIP OFF THE DEMOCRATS AGAIN, THIS YEAR. I CAN JUST FEEL IT.

Man, that was very immature!!! Whats up with that Obama. Obama also got legal action in Ohio to keep the polls open later. This is some crazy stuff coming from the Obama campaign.

Bush, Clinton, Clinton, Bush, Bush, Clinton…. What's wrong with this picture. Go Independent Obama!

Why are lawyers being used? Isn't it are right to question everything known to America…. I would like to know more about this story. Obama has no right to crash anyone's calls - dear grief!

STOP ALL THIS FIGHTING AND PULL THIS PARTY TOGETHER!
Clinton and Obama hello your tearing the party apart.

OBAMA IS A LIAR !!!!
This Guy is a liar ( He told the Canadian Government that he is O.K with NAFTA ; behind close door he is saying NAFTA IS O.K and in public he is saying he will negoiate NAFTA )

HE IS A LIAR !!!! OBAMA IS A LIAR !!!

IS THIS CHANGE ?

OR

IS IT YES WE CAN LIE ?

YES WE CAN LIE !!!

YES WE CAN LIE !!!

Shame…
How desperate of him.

I don't get it why people say Obama lost big time today. Honestly, Clinton did not win big time! To be considered a big winner, she would have to win Texas by 7 points and above, same for Ohio (although that seems to be done). But in Texas, it's really tied! I don't get it why people think he lost. If he wins Texas (with Vermont) that's the same amount as Ohio (and Rhode Island) for Hillary.

I think Obama is still the big winner (remember the last 11 primaries?).

Hillary has NOT discredited the United States…
They have done more good then Obama will ever.

Even with it all!

Yeah stan (Oh.) but Clinton has always been desperate….hehehehehehe

GO Hillary!
Take Em In TEXAS!

This shows a point of desparation coming for the Obama camp. They are obviously getting defensive. Wonder why?

DON'T TRUST HILLARY!

If for some unholy reason Hillary wins this god I hope not…I'll definately be voting Green. I do NOT care if McCain is elected, I can NOT vote for Hillary…It seems America had a chance for change but once again lets go back to 20th century POLITICS.

THE OBAMA TEAM LET HIM DOWN. AND MIGHT HAVE COASTED HIM 30 SOME DELEGATES AND THE END OF THIS PRIMARY. THE REPUBLICAN COMMENTATORS ARE GETTING THEIR STORY TOGETHER. HILLARY WILL CONTINUE TO THROW DIRT.

Hillary's experience is no better than that of a backseat driver.

However, she's darn good at cryin and lyin.

Sounds too much like a Republican too me.

It's hilarious how childish both these campaigns are.

Obama's fighting fire with fire– So what!

Clinton & Obama are about even, meaning 1/2 the dems support her, and 1/2 Obama. So why should she drop out before the race is even over? They are both quality candidates, and they should follow the rules and go to the end. And their supporters should quit bashing each other.

What a low down thing to do!!! Another back door type deal..Obama's true colors are really showing. This stinks..this guy is SOOO not ready to be president. I guess he'll say "I knew nothing about this". Give you all any insight into how he would act as a president? Something rotten happens and he'll claim one of his very experienced people "Did It"

This kind of back stabbing politics should be brought out in the media that these kinds of tactics are going on. There should be fines levy against the Fake lying Clintons' and her directors and any one else who is involved in these kind of low balling tactics. It's time the Barack stop playing the nice guy and roll up his sleeves and go to battle with these sleaze balls.

Clinton a crook? Nothing new there.

Hey CNN, I don't expect you to post this, but how about reporting on the 3 counties in Ohio where Obama team has polls stay open late because of "irregularities". Come to find out, it was determined 9 minutes before those polls closed (ones that stayed open late)…. HAD NO IRREGULARITIES!!!!! Obama's lawyer attached NO INFORMATION TO SUPPORT THE CLAIM!!! These counties are predominantly black counties. How is this fair, and why in the hell aren't you reporting it? Cripes, Fox did. CNN, you are getting worse by the day!!!!!

i'm confused by this article - the only point I get out of this is Obama's lawyer crashed a conference call from the Clinton campaign. The question is, how did he get the number? and why did he do it?

WOW OBAMA CAN COMPLAIN IRREGULARITY BUT NOT HILLARY, ASKING ANOTHER PILLOW MR. OBAMA?

clinton's staff hard at work on the net I see. never resting until the rest of the u.s. believes she's inevitable. as for all the little states that voted against her- shut up. you don't count unless there's enough delegates for her highness to consider spending precious time and money on. a sign of our future under clinton. get ready to be her peon.

I see no one asking why Clinton has come out with such negative adds towards Obama. She keeps claiming the exp card but no one is checking her on the fact that being a first lady does not give you hat claim. I will give her the fact that she had a front seat during her husbands term but she never had to make the decisions. That is what counts. I am neither an Obama supporter or a Clinton supporter but can anyone deny that when the Vote for the Iraq war came "DECISON TIME" she made a huge mistake. She did not even read the intelligence report (THAT IS A FACT PEOPLE) but then claims that she made the judgement based on what she had. I had much respect for the Clintons and always shrugged off those who said they would do anything to win but after see what is going on, I am starting to believe it.

YES INDEED! YES WE CAN LIE OBAMA !

OBAMA…YOU ARE A FULL-FLEDGED IDIOT!!! CRY ME A RIVER…PLEASE GO BACK TO ILLINOIS WHERE YOU CAME FROM!! Now that you're LOSING your true colours are coming out from their shadows! I am sick of the DISGRACE the OBAMA CAMPAIGN has done to us DEMOCRATS and AMERICA!!!

HILLARY '08!!!

Hillary, STOP BEING SO SELFISH!!! STEP DOWN NOW!!! Barack, I'm so sorry you have to deal with such a low life.

How sleazy of Bauer to crash the conference call. Sounds like the Obama camp is getting desperate.

Obama should have definitely won Ohio. What in the
hell happened.???????????????Was it a Hillary lie?

How is this a lowlife trick by Senator Clinton? She wasn't the one crashing her own conference call.

Also sooooo tired of Senator Obama supporters 'reminding' us that only the 'non- college educated' support Senator Clinton.
What a slap in the face to those who didn't go or finish college who are incredibly successful in their fields.

I didn't finish college and I own a successful small business.

Obama camp is so whiny, they ar getting desperate!!! They think cheating the caucus system will work

People in this forum and everywhere else deserves the actual facts.
I AM FROM TEXAS AND I KNOW THAT OBAMA'S CAMPAIGN CLEARLY VIOLATED THE CAUCUS RULES BY GIVING AWAY THE FORMS TO THEIR SUPPORTERS WAY BEFORE EVEN THE POLLS CLOSE.

Obama's campaign is acting clearly like a 4 year old…..

They were whinning in SC, and now bullying in TX…..

Whats next???

Amazing… The Clinton campaign goes directly to the media to make accusations against Obama. And the Obama campaign gets chastized for defending itself against yet-to-be-proved allegations? They are trying to "try this case" in the media. Where are the facts? Where are the FEC workers? There are proper ways to deal with complaints, and in the media is NOT even in the top ten.

Oh, by the way, just heard from some friends in TX….. Obama's strong-armers and screamers have been at it again scareing people and making them leave caucus sites.

Sick!

obama sucks you people dont even know why you like him.

Caucusing was horrible. My sister (Clinton) was left along w/ other standing in the cold w/ no communication from those conducting the process. I (Obama) voted in Tarrant County and although I voted w/ no problem, my caucus vote will likely not be counted because I magically no longer appeared on the list. It is a stupid process that has angered many people I know.

I love how Clinton supporters think Obama is the negative one. That's so hypocritical and hilarious.

let's get them on the same ticket and get on with it. Democrats love them both.

Actually, Clinton is the crybaby…the candidate who has blamed her losses on everyone and everything possible except herself. It goes along with the Clinton history, though, all the way back to Arkansas.

Clinton's long-touted "experience" is a total of 15 years (see Time article on presidential experience), with 8 of those being president's wife. That, my friends, is not political experience.

HRC has proven herself, again & again over the last 15 years, to be an egotistical, hateful, personally-nasty woman who is determined to have whatever she wants…at any cost and by any means.

Obama may prove to be no better, but I'd rather take that chance and give him the benefit of the doubt, than go with the proven history behind Clinton.

Obama had to call lawyers ,how very differen,t for a candidate of change. Hey listen when the going gets rough the rough…..well, we know.

If Obama camp thinks this is tough well, just wait til the general election.

Mrs./Sen. Clinton has withstood every sling of mudd thrown at her, Obama not so much.

If you can't stand the heat………

At POTUS needs thick skin!

now Clinton has the lead in Texas =) I knew it she is gong to do it i just know come on Hillary keep the votes coming and win TX and OH

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

Some of you Obama people are such big loosers that the only thing you can think of is to insult Hillary. I don't see our people doing the same to Obama. We may say that it is too soon for him to apply for the job, or that he should cool it with his demagogy. But we don't say he is low life, a lier, or the so many other names you like to call Hillary.
Just accept it, you are loosing.
You can't be be taken seriously as a candidate, if you don't want the big States. And you haven't won any!

Wow! Could it be that the Obama campaign is starting to crack under pressure? Does anyone not have a problem with one campaign crashing another campaign's conference call?

Looks like Obama may need to rethink who is running his campaign.

Why did CNN take down the blog post about Obama calling McCain to congratulate him?? HEmmmm. Is it possible Obama wanted it taken down because it showed him for the evil, pompous fool he is.

Amy in Iowa,
Hillary is ahead by a few thousand in Texas.

CLINTON WINS OHIO!!!!! WAY TO GO, HILLARY!!!
Bye bye, Obama!!

His economic advisor talked to the Canadian Government, only to reiterate the point that he will redraft the NAFTA that PRESIDENT CLINTON put into action.

I'm glad you know exactly what they talked about and that you were there to hear it all.

Typical Clinton supporters, bashing and going negative with false attacks and lies.

Obama '08, End this Era of Politics

P.S. I was willing to vote for Clinton in a General Election, but the more negative her campaign and supporters show, the more I just refuse to vote for her. Just keep in mind that polls continue to show she has a 48% disapproval rate throughout the country. It's hard to win an election with that.

This coverage is very biased, in particular the discussion of who independents are favoring: Either Schneider or Anderson interpreted a 48 clinton 52% obama edge among both Republicans and Independents as "the independents are all voting for Obama"

Au contraire, it appears to me that Clinton is getting a remarkable number of Independents and disappointed Republicans considering the evil total partisan that she is being portrayed as in ALL of the coverage. SO she CAN get independents and republicans, AND obviously the black vote will go to the ticket. AND I fully expect that whoever loses the nomination will be out there campaigning for the ticket also!

Should we be demanding Barack get out of this race. Hes doing nothing, but hurt the party.

THIS IS A GREAT NIGHT, WE LOVE YOU HILLARY. Thank you for giving all these naive Obama supporters a night to forget.

AND THERES OHIO

Patrick, you got it right…there is already enough division within democrats….hispanics-will vote Mccain…..after all he is the only one with a clear plan on ilegal immigration….

Not true about anything Obama said to Canada.
Read the Permalink on what Canada said was not
true. Hillary lied or made up a lie to conveniently make
Obama look bad hours before the primaries.So close
to the primaries, that Obama had no time to defend
himself. She a coniver and lousy. People are sick
and tired of dirty tricky politics. Obama does not do
that to her.Hope she can live with herself. OH, yes
she can! She is not WHITE HOUSE material.

Obama 2008

You people are ridiculous. Splitting the Democratic party!!!! The people in Pennsylvania have a right to have their voice heard, and the superdelegates have a right given to them. If Obama was in the same position he would flip his views too. Hillary stays in! Get over it. She is standing her ground, and whomever wins the nomination, at least we will know that all of the states got to express their opinions.

Your nonsense about dropping out for the unity of the democratic party is undemocratic. Go join the republican machine and vote for McCain!

I just left the caucus for my precinct in Texas. It was the most inefficient unorganied process i have ever witnessed. The people who were in charge of obtaining signatures for Senator Clinton were lying and representing themselves as being those collecting votes for Senator Obama. There were about 100 people caucusing for Clinton and about 800 caucusing for Obama. Though I live in an area which is overwhelmingly white, about 80 percent of the caucus attendees were black.. Not reflective at all of what i'm seeing on CNN's poll results.

Looks like McCain will be President.

oBMA supporters hate clinton, and now I relaize I can not vote for obma and his dirty tricks and lies (Canada and NAFTA).

If Clinton is nominated obma supporters will be bitter and not vote for her….

Another Republican pro-war deficit spending mllionaire tax cutting white WHITE house!!!

-Ugh charlie brown!!!!

So can we investigate the charges first? Sounds more serious than NV. We know it was not Clinton who challenged NV, right?

If there is evidence, it will come out. If there is not, the Clinton campaign will look bad.

Hillary 08

Hillary wins Ohio!!!

Go Hillary, You are th true rock star!!!

,.I pray with all my heart that Sen.Obama,knows how much realizing the dream of hope that he has given all of the poor or semi poor in the USA will cost. He never speaks of what or when they can expect their lives to become better.
You and I know that it won't unless they want it too. All the hope in the world weill not educate those who do not want it,it will not make those work who will not,.
In Canada they create jobs then must bring in immigrants to fill them because the pay is so poor.

He will walk away with a life time of money and protection what, will happen to all those with hope?

That's Ok I was just watching CNN Live video and it was showing one of the cacuses and if you look in the corner of the room you'll see a picture of Obama.

People call her the "me" person, I beg to differ!

Who does he think he is Saddam?

Earlier today out side of a polling area, they had a picture of him as people walked.

Talk about desperation!

That is sick!

I came back from a caucus in Dallas. It was packed and slightly disorganized. I would be very angry for it not to count. Mainly because I researched what I needed to do.

Whats wrong with making sure the polls stay open so that everyone can vote if it was the polling place's fault they couldnt vote in the first place b/c they ran out of ballots.

SOme of you should take political science courses and government courses and get to know how things are supposed to work.

The Cackle still lives on.

Well lets hope that H. Clinton doesn't win, because if she does she won't have the black vote. That's one step closer for McCain to the White House.

Go Hillary stay strong!

This is shocking.

How typical and rude. Do you go to a party uninvited? No. Do you jump in someone phone call uninvited? No! Do you go to someone's home uninvited? no no.

Will Obama sue or persecute everyone who did not vote for him? Kind of like dictator manners? God, save us, what we have to go through with this immature, narcissistic candidate? How far they are willing to go?

………. I am concerned for well being of people and this country…….

Canada denounce any such treatment from the Obama camp. They said the same thing that Obama said which is HE NEVER NEGOTIATED ANYTHING CONTRARY TO WHAT HE SAID ON THE CAMPAIGN TRAIL. So no he never said that NAFTA was okay…that is what Hillary did…and SHE SUPPORTED NAFTA until she notice that is wasn't working just like she SUPPORTED the war until she discovered it wasn't working either…

Some experience…I could have done that.

I just wonder how the Clinton camp got hold of the fact that the meeting with the Canadians took place. Did they set the meeting up, or is the economic adviser connected with anybody from the Clinton camp? I dont think that issue ends here, it was just too convenient considering where the respective Democratic candidates were at that point.

CNN want to do a bit of investigative journalism?

Media playing up some entirely unimportant event and we have people who have hardly a clue about whats going on, raving about people they support..the detriment of US politics

"Bush, Clinton, Clinton, Bush, Bush, Clinton…. What's wrong with this picture"

Are you choosing a president based on a pattern? Why do you care so much about the "picture" as long as he/she will be a good president?

Yes, go independent Hillary! Go away no-so-independent Obama!

DON"T LOOK NOW..The Clinton Machine is starting up!!! WHAT WILL THE PUNDITS SAY NO!!! UHHHH OH!!

Once again Obama goes crying. I know I have experienced some pretty crappy treatment from Obama supporters at the caucuses in Colorado. I am not surprised to hear this might be happening in Texas. I think Clinton Campaign was right in calling Bauer out to help solve the situation - but than again just like Obama campaign to want to talk instead of taking action.

Hillary 08

Should Hillary copy Obama like he copies her and now call McCain to congratulate him and say she is looking forward to running against him?

Have some of that "Obama Bluffer"
Hillary has taken 2 , Texas too easy!

Go Home Obama go home.. your days are limited
everyone is on to you now and tonight proves it!

Where are the taxes Clinton?

Getting OH to extend the voting time was due to a mysterious shortage of ballots in at least two counties…beginning to sound like FL, anyone?

McCain must be dancing a jig about all this Clinton/Obama debacle bringing grief to the Democratic party. You want McCain? Keep it up, then, y'all. McCain is, according to all the polls, most likely to beat Clinton. Guess that's why he's hitting on Obama so hard, and leaving Clinton pretty much alone. Makes him almost seem like he's campaigning for her…in case you were wondering why.

This interruption of the Clinton Campaign conference call doesn't make sense. Just a coincident? So, why didn't the Obama guy just apologize and hang up?

This is rude and studpid! What's the idea? Or is there one?

wow what happen and you'll want obama in the white house if i were you'll i would think about that one twice before it's 2 late. u go girl… hillary all the way.

Hilary can no longer ignore her republican roots. How much lower can she go, lying in bed with rep. John McCain to sink her fellow democratic candidate. Canadians are much smarter than us Americans. The Prime Minister will not be re-elected. Watch and see. How is is possible that just before the final eve of a primary the Clintons are able to project some derivisive, nasty attach on Obama and get away with it? Is the press blind.

It is clear that John McCain is afraid of Obama since he has joined forces with the Clintons to destroy him. Shame on us Americans.

Fascinating. It's truly amazing how gullible the electorate continues to be. Many of you so-called progressives are embracing the Clintonesque-politics of division, only this time you are letting them tear apart your own party along racial lines, religious lines, and any other demographics where wedges can fit.

They throw enough mud and things start to look muddy, but only if they can count on you being naive. You have always cried about the scorched earth politics of Karl Rove and his ilk, but you can't see it in your own house.

I am an Obama Republican. My party doesn't deserve me and if you guys can't get your house in order, your party doesn't deserve Obama.

Seems to me the Obama wave is crashing….finally.

i just really hope by the end of this that clinton does that win, if my experence has taught me anything its two clintons is not a better deal than one.

U guys are really "funny". U should hear yourselves. Boo Hoo!!!!

Down and Dirty that's the Clinton's MO. She' s not fighter, she's untrustworthy and just as slick as slick Willie. They know how to play the game and I give them credit where its due. Release the records. Look out America, Another scandal filled White House.

Although Obama has seemingly lost Ohio, I still have much faith in him. Hillary and her camp have repeatedly attempted to knock Obama out of the race. I give him a loud ululation for his dedication.

What a whimp Obama is. He is full of hot air and that does not keep a helium balloon up.

If HIllary wins this nomination with all her dirty tricks I personally will not vote in Nov. and will campaign for McCain. She sucks! This isn't about the party or the American people it's about her and what Hillary wants, she'll get no matter what she has to do to get it.

Obama is whining now.

Has anyone noticed that Barama is winning in the affluent urban counties and Hillary is winnning in the rural areas where the "plainfolks are. Barrack said "he wasn't born rich" now i think he is beginning Don't waste Hillary she is trained for the job. Let her have 8 yrs and let obam gain experience, and lets have 16 yrs of democratic control of the Presidency

Michael Moore said it "If there is a way to screw it up, the Democrats will find it" Obama has more states, more delagates, and probably will until the end , no matter how slim, any way you look at it, he's ahead. Now the Clinton campaign is saying they should continue because they won big states? Let's keep this going until June and let McCain get ahead!!

I would rather be waterboarded than have to wait two and a half hours to vote in a Texas caucus again. What's the point of early voting if the Texas Democratic Party insists on doing its delegate selection in this manner?

An unhappy Texas Democrat

Lubbock, Texas

OBAMA Camp is finally losing its cool ! ! ! !

Well, we had a caucus here in Washington State. The weensy town where I live did all right as far as I can tell, but nearer to the Seattle/Tacoma area the Obama people were loud, raucus and rude. Some Clinton people showed up, then left in disgust. Others were on their way, but turned around and went home.

As someone who as experienced caucuses directly and lived in Illinois where we could see the Iowans "caucusing", we learned early that caucuses are anything but democratic.

Heard someone the other day say how I feel: Clinton campaigns like she is having a job interview; Obama campaigns like he is on a date.

Personally, I am past the dating phase of life. It scares that Obama may win the primaries, but lose to the R slime machine. He and his people whined about the way Bill Clinton treated him in S.C. Wait to see how he handles the R sliming. If he does manage to win the election, then what?

OBAMA IS A LIAR !!!!
HE IS A LIAR !!!! OBAMA IS A LIAR !!!

IS THIS CHANGE ?
YES WE CAN .
IS IT YES WE CAN LIE ?
YES WE CAN LIE !!!

Yup, HE LIED ABOUT WAR IN IRAQ…I was there

glen.
DUDE!

I loved the Clintons until I saw the low-life tacics to which they would stoop earlier in this campaign. Formerly low-rent, now high-rent grifters, that's what they are. Why do you think Rush Limbaugh and a whole host of neo-con pundits are hoping that the Clintons win the nomination?

Hillary and Bil Clinton are the only ones in this country who don't know that Hillary Clinton has no chance of winning the presidency! If Hillary gets the nod from the dems we can count on President McCain - a retread of the Kinf George administration. Once again we'll get not the government that we need, but the government we deserve.

God Bless America, 'cause we're going to need it more than ever.

As pointed earlier, the Clintons will do anything to get their way regardless of what the voting public wants.

Now that McCain has won the Republican nomination, Clinton's attempt to "win at all costs" will drag nout to the convention and will create increasing disdain for the Clintons and the Democrats.

If she doesn't cut the stuff, the she will hand the election to McCain on a silver platter

wow! i started out as a clinton supporter. i was converted to the obama campaign when i realized he will not play dirty to win an election. clinton is no different than the republicans with that vague answer on 60 minutes about whether she believes obama is a muslim (not that that is a bad thing… ). she played on the racist fears of most. omg! a muslim. you cant trust a muslim. LOL! forget about the fact that he is a christian born in hawaii. people allowed her to do exactly what Bush's people did to kerry. so clinton supporters do not cry when john mccain becomes the president on 1/20/09, she can't beat him in the general election. that's why every republican is praying for a clinton/mccain match up. i will just sit back and know that my conscious is clear. i voted for the candidate that can win… barack obama. ohio citizens, keep crying about the loss of jobs. you allowed bush to swindle your state in 2004. wait until john mccain gets a hold of ya.

I hope the Clinton campaign spins until they knock themselves out.
I also hope the voters in Ohio get their just deserts. NAFTA will continue in full speed! Jobs will continue to leave and the Clinton will continue to enrich themselves and their washington friends.

btw…..Hillary release your tax returns and your White House papers

dumb americans dumb americans…haha. It's actually funny how messed up your country is. I use to think it was government, but no it's the people as well. You actually think its a shock that your country is on the tight rope and is no longer the world power. no one admires America..no one even wants to live there. Perhaps you should take a look at yourselves…..and think….your standard of living is a joke. your division between rich and poor is a joke. Your media built up Hillary then brought her down…while bringing Barack Obama up…then bring back down Barack and now Hillary is the darling in the media again. They are playing you for fools….idiots.

What is the love relationship with Obama? He is in the wrong time and time again. The media dreaming of the future ratings he will bring tries to make him a dream when in fact if you listen to him he is a nightmare. A reality that civilizations all over the world throughout time have eventually faced. He speaks dreams or is he speaking against democracy? Open your eyes America before it is too late.

It happened in Rome…the same families running things for decades until they ran it in to the ground. Let's try a newbee!!

Okay Hillary just won Ohio….oh well….Obama folks we need to get to the accuarcy of Hillary. What was her schedule as first lady of Arkansas, why doesn't Bill release Hillary's schedule when she was first lady? How is that any different than holding a meeting that she is sounding off for Barack for not doing. It would appear that her schedule does not reflect the claims of experience that she states she has. Secondly, why are they refusing to disclose their tax returns….what are they not wanting to disclose?

I'm a bit surprised about Ohio, but then again it's only 50% counted. There's still time, depending on if the urban centers in Cleveland and Cincinnati have been counted yet.

Same here in Texas. If Clinton is ahead based on South Texas, look out because DFW and Houston are coming, and it won't be pretty.

Yes, Hillary took RI and OH, but all Obama needs to do in TX is keep it split and he's got the nomination.

Negative ads, negative campaigning, Divide the Party because I have to win at all cost. The Clinton Motto

This is not a win for Hillary….

Winners never cheat and cheaters never win!
Hillary won simply because of her dirty tricks and praying on the fears of the less educated.

Bauer is right (even if his method was a little questionable) I'd be upset too if i were in his place. Clinton has done and will continue to do anything it takes to get the nomination and complaining about the states she loses is the least of our worries. She has tried to get Michigan and Florida reconsidered after her agreement with the DNC decision, and Obama's decision to take his name out of those races left her as the only one on the ballot, she tried with all her might to get Obama supporters in Nevada to LOSE THEIR RIGHT TO VOTE. I wouldn't be surprised if this did end up in court when she inevitably loses. At this point if she wins the primary I am likely to vote for McCain. Republicans may be wolves but at least we know what to expect from them; Clinton hides behind her wool jacket.

GO HILLARY !!! STILL HISPANICS VOTES TO COME

So Mrs. Clinton won Ohio and Rhode Island while Mr. Obama won Vermont. Now they have Texas pretty much split. At this point, after all of this money and all of these votes, either candidate dropping out would be a betrayal of the support they have been given. The media plays up that one or the other should quit for party unity. That is what the convention is for this summer. There will be unity and a single nominee at that point. GO HILLARY!!

It tells you everything you need to know……the educated vote for Obama and the un-educated vote for Clinton

Clinton peole this message is for you
: take it easy the game is far from over and you know that..
Obama is THE CANDIDATE and many people in the country are absolutely fed up with the Clinton!.
Your numbers are not that great!
Great come back???? Common Guys!

Glen: Obama a liar????// COMMON .. The Clinton invented this word and have a PHD in lying and everybody is well aware of that. in the world….

How does being married to a charismatic guy qualify you to be president (or senator)? That is not experience. If the phone rang at 3am, it wasnt for her. BTW, he cheated on her and she let it go because she wanted to be president. You know its true.

THIS COUNTRY IS NOT FOR TWO FAMILIES BUSH,- CLINTON, BUSH - CLINTON. WE WANT OTHER PEOPLE TO LEAD THIS COUNTRY RATHER THAN THE SAME OLD FASHIONED PEOPLE. MAY I ASK YOU GUYS WHO ARE THE SUPPORTERS OF THE CLINTONS, WHAT DO YOU THINK HILLARY WILL BRING TO AMERICAN POLITICS? THink seriously about it.

It may not be the end. But at least it's the begining of the end.

Soon will come the slow drop in a beliefs. that really wasn't possible..

Wake up in the future Borack, and just maybe yopu'll find a place in tine USA. Then you can also recognise it, as also your Country…

You have to live, and believe, or how can be ther such people like me….Who also cares about the Future of all North America …..

So>>>> Away to go my Comment………………….

If you really want to know the truth about Hillary, Google:Hillary scandals; if you can live with what you read and still vote for her then try:Dead men don't talk and see if you can stomach that!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Why do you think the republicans are pushing so hard for Hillary to win? Answer: So they can bring up the dirt

It would be interesting to see whether the Republican tactic of urging their people to vote for Clinton worked, or whether Hillary's campaign suddenly took a turn for the better itself.

These Hillary supporters who say the Republicans want to run against Obama are insane. All indications are that Hilalry would be crushed by McCain.

Lets be fair if you have not voted dont talk: If you have than it could not be.Its a lie!!! What happen to Ron Brown?

I see the Hillary campaign is pretty active in these here parts of the internet.

As an Obama supporter I do have to agree with the people saying that it was wrong for the lawyer to drop in on the conference call. However, for the Hillary supporters to portray the Obama campaign as a bunch of lowlifes is the epitome of the pot calling the kettle black.

Several of them on this comment list also need to learn some basic grammar and spelling.

HIllary WINS OHIO!!

thank you ohio you didnt let the bias press phase you.
and the way its looking the texans are a lot less shallow than i tought.

here is to you, texas and ohio
and on behalf of america…

thank you!

Hey kids same product in different packages. The Canadian dollar is stonger than the US dollar, do you think that might have something to do with the "leak"…The Clintons have been for NAFTA since the outset do you think that had somethign to do with the leak? Wake up it is the New World Order. Fox is getting their news from YouTube fer crying out loud. You are getting your news from the same people that are causing the banking collapse , the housing collapse. What are your sources CNN/ FOX? the networks. The NY Times??? Glen Willie relax..nobody cares…this is for show and for ratings.

THE FIX IS IN. CLINTON WILL WIN TONIGHT. I feel so sick. These people are so corrupt. What are people thinking? The thought of a Clinton back in the White House is nauseating.

Something is beginning to rear it's ugly head in the Obama organization - extremist tactics. First we have the strong arming of superdelegates and now they are crashing calls. I was wondering how the Obama camp would react if the tide turned, as it seems to be doing. We can probably expect more militant, repressive actions. Yuk!

HOW DID HE GET THAT NUMBER TO START WITH. WHO LET HIM INTO THE CONF. CALL ANYWAY? IT JUST SEEMS THAT THESE PEOPLE THAT WORK FOR THE RUNNERS ARE THE ONES MAKING THESE "WAR OF WORDS". LETS GET DOWN TO THE ISSUES NOT THESE KINDERGARDEN RECESS CRAP!!!. AS USUAL, THE OBAMA PEOPLE ARE COMPLAINING NOW THAT CLINTON IS PULLING AHEAD. TYPICAL, CNN ANALYSTS SAID EARLY THIS EVENING THAT CLINTON WOULD NEED TO WIN WITH DOUBLE DIGITS AND HERE WE ARE 4 HOURS LATER. CLINTON IS AHEAD WITH DOUBLE DIGITS. GO HILLARY!

Obama's camp, playing dirty tricks, locking out Hillary supporters.
Something you can believe in!
Obama camp has some wicked ways!

Very surprising to hear people with short memory calling OBAMA a liar. the clinton invented this word and practice it all their lives..
My god! what a cynical couple!
Obama is the candidate and will win the primaries.
Go Obama! we are proud of you and you are the best!

go hillary!!!!!!!!!!!! trust me guys, she will win it all!!!!!!!!!!

You Obama supporters are morons if you think this was a fix… this is the votes being counted !

Clinton is a fighter and a survivor. She knows how to fight and beat McCain in the general election. She is out in the open and does not have a problem with the truth; Obama has no idea what it will take to beat a seasoned republican senator. It is gonna take experience to beat the republicans and has everyone forgot what a toil it took on the citizens of the United States to have 12 years of republicans (Reagan and Bush). Bill Clinton had what it took to bring America back together; then another Bush for 8 years! Come on America and get your heads out of your rears and look at the problems that are a result of 8 years of republicans. I am a Clinton fan, she can move this country into a new world.

No matter what, which ever Democrat takes the primary, Democrats need to back Democrats and fight the Republican candidate. Democrats need to take back over.

If any of you folks had been at my precinct caucus tonight, you would have understood Hillary's concerns (or ANY of the candidates' concerns for that matter). For 95% of the people there, it was confusing and easily misunderstood. It amazes me that supposedly well educated people show up at these caucuses totally ignorant of what the process is about, how it works, what you need to do, etc. For crying out loud, spend 30 minutes online or on a phone call to the county party office and find out how the caucus works before jumping into the mix. I've never seen so many "deer in the headlights" looks in one room in all my life.
FYI– our caucus ended up split evenly between Hillary & Obama. Actually Hillary was ahead by a small margin, but since you have to round delegate numbers up, it turned out an even split.

Sorry for the typos in my original post. I guess I'm rather pasionate on this subject, like the rest of you. Here are my corrected remarks:

I loved the Clintons until I saw the low-life tacics to which they would stoop earlier in this campaign. Formerly low-rent, now high-rent grifters, that's what they are. Why do you think Rush Limbaugh and a whole host of neo-con pundits are hoping that the Clintons win the nomination?

Hillary and Bill Clinton are the only ones in this country who don't know that Hillary Clinton has no chance of winning the presidency! If Hillary gets the nod from the dems we can count on President McCain - a retread of the King George administration. Once again, we'll get not the government that we need, but the government we deserve.

God Bless America, 'cause we're going to need it more than ever.

I'm delighted to see that Senator Obama is letting his attorney respond. With 35 years in politics and time in TX especially, one would think Senator Clinton would know the TX electoral rules by now. Furthermore, these are rules that were set up by some who are now among her campaign aides! Senator Obama, continue to take the high road. We are intelligent enough not to be sidetracked by attack ads or rule changing mid-stream.

As a person who has recently began to involve myself into politics Hilary Clinton and her camps tactics reminds me why people like myself don't get involved….and with the backing of Ann Culter and that Cunningham guy…I mean really people wake do we really want to go back to a Clinton Whitehouse…the definition of insanity is doing the samething and expecting different results.

People the democratic primary is really about the true colors of the American culture..funny how the south has turned out more supportive of Obama than the North. Obama tried to run his campaign as a man who so happened to be african american. Hilary has BLOATED on being a female. Talk about pulling a minority card!

What I find pathetic about the whole mess is the North's position during the Civil War vs. the South…and now the Mason Dixon line is reversed…

By the way…BOOO to Saturday Night Live and the media for the unbalanced reviews on the candidites! And if Hilary Clinton wins the primary, and IF she wins the election, Ohio better not complain if she doesnt address the consequences of NAFTA to bring back their blue collar workforce stability!

Yes..I am a Obama supporter and proud of it…

Some just don't get it; If Hillary wins the primary I think those who voted for Obama will not vote e for Clinton leaving the field for McCain. If Clinton was such a superstar Obama would not have won the votes and states he did. Hillary enjoy the glamour now but when McCain wins the Presidency remember it will be difficult to win over the supporters of Obama. Just because you may be the Democratic winner you have a lot to do to win our Democratic support than the negative platform you run on

Simple.
To see if something is going on there, just compare caucus and primary. After all, it's the same people voting for same candidates.
And remember, it's primary only in November

We are beginning to see the real Obama. Before this past two weeks I would have voted for either of the two Democratic candidates. As of today, I will not vote for Obama under any circumstances.

Another Bush in the White House, with new decorations,the carpet doenst match the drapes.

Hilliary pulls out two victories poor Obama is done really done. Hillery has her suragates pushing the negative campaign stuff while she sits back all smiley eye and happy. Obama can't fight that. Well it was fun for awhile

Can anyone spell D_E_S_P_E_R_A_T_E???

How come Barack Obama always wants to wait until Hillary talks. Always a follower, right? Look even at the time when she's giving her speech for winning Ohio and Rhode Island … Barack is still wanting to talk after her. Yeah right, and he's SO ready to lead. (rest my case!)

Hillary should keep fighting. It isn't over until someone recieves the number of delegates needed. Florida and Michigan should hold new primaries. I don't believe in Obama's "change we can believe in". It is all talk . His actions are often at odds with his speachs. Decrying NAFTA while winking at the Canadains and then trying to deny it. and then refusing to answer questions about it. Challenging the republicans to only run on public funds and now trying to get out of it. The list can go on. I am voting for Hillary or McCain. t

I can't believe I'm following some of this IGNORANT CRAAAAAAAP!

You people are drones! Think for yourselves please!!!

Primary elections are supped to be a vetting process; a job interview.
1) Do we know ANYTHING about Obama besides his bumper sticker slogans and pep rally speeches? No.
2) Is Hillary paying the double tax of carrying Bill's baggage in her campaign? Yes.
3) Is either Hillary or Obama better than another Republican ruining America and the world? You bet.

My concern is that it is early March and both sides have already "chosen" their candidate and yet their positions on issues will change so much between now and election day. Sad state for democracy in America! Can we export anything besides bad TV, over-priced movies, and celebrity gossip?

I am disgusted with this whole process. Obama is definitely not without fault (and has gotten worse over the past weeks) but HRC's campaign has been absolutely sickening. I have lost amost all respect for the whole process. HRC will probably with the primary battle with the tactic she has used,but I think she may very well lose the war in November. If McCain wins in November, it will not surprise me in the least.

FED UP WITH POLITICIANS!

Intresting coming from the State that lost thier Jobs to NAFTA and the State that put Bush in, keep pushing the envolope from bad to worse Ohio!

GO OBAMA

The Clintons' are low-down dirty people! If they con the Democratic Party into influencing the Superdelegates, thus stealing the election away from Obama..well, I'll be voting for McCain!!

Yep I agree. If Hillary can steal or sue for the nomination, McCain wins. I am democrat, and female, and would NEVER vote for Hillary or any Clinton for that matter!

Berkely,
Evidently you don't read much. I've been reading these blogs for months now and I hate to break it to you but the Clinton supporters are actually as bad if not worse in the name calling department then Obama's supporters are. I'm not a supporter of either so please don't try to spin this statement. But the truth is in the blogs, go and read it for yourself. All you have to do is scroll up and look at Glens post, and he's not the only one.

When will Latinos learn that their votes are being used??? What has Clinton done for you??? Do you even know? It is such a shame that the Latinos think that there is this fight for votes between African-Americans and them. When in fact WE ARE NOT THINKING ABOUT YOU! Many Latinos are going to Colleges that were historically black colleges…becaue the need for these colleges for Black people are not as necessary as they once were. Many of the civil rights that Latinos enjoy are because of Black people who laid down, got beaten and even died so that everyone not just Blacks could be treated equally. So why do Latinos always think that there is this competition?? I really don't get it. Especially since many Latinos are BLACK themselves. It's mind boggling.

I I knew that there was a lot of Obama that was not okay I keep sending e-mails telling the media to stop and listen to what he is saying he tells the same thing in every speech. and he is also a liar which the people are now findiing out. how can some one run a country with speechs? So I say Hillary run and do not get out of the race.

Rock on Hillary!!!

Clinton '08

Clinton '08

Clinton '08

Obama needs to take control of his staffers. They're starting to borrow plays from the Clinton playbook, but that won't work for him. Everyone holds Obama to a different standard. He can't play dirty or return those illegal punches. He needs to stick to the high road and sweat it out or he'll be open game against the Republicans. The Clintons will take the entire party done with them if you give them the chance.

Hilliary just lies so much Obama has to hit her and start to throw some punches she just said she won Florida and Michigan Obama wasn't even on the ballots in Michigan all lies OBAMA CALL HER ON HER LIES.

I WANT THE 90S BACK WHEN THINGS WERE GOOD !!!!!!!!!!! YOU ALL SEEM TO FORGET HOW GREAT THEY WERE!

I have had never had a good feeling about Obama .. he is like the wolf in sheeps clothing and I hope America wakes up fast and turns this around.!!!!!!!!!!!!

To Xemmy, that goes both ways you know.

yeah I think I can spell it….

O-B-A-M what comes next…?

Oh yeah. A!!

I'm a die hard Dem, and inititally my vote was going to be for Hillary. Isupported Bill during his term, and truly thought she could when against McCain because know one really knew of Obama, but during the course of the primary I switched over to Obama. I can honestly say if Obama doesn't win the nomination I will vote for McCain. It has sadden me how Hillary would try and divide the Democratic party by supporting McCain. She doesn't deserve the opprotunity to becalled the leader of the country.

What do you mean why are there lawyers involved? They're democrats. That's why there's lawyers involved.

Stay calm, Obama folks. We'll be okay. Let the dirty ones be dirty. They threw mud and it worked. Our is the high road, the same road as Lincoln, TR, FDR, and a few others. Let the false proclaim for the false. As the Hillar
