For heaven's sake, Hillary, let it go. Why should all of that money be spent on a vanity project for your ego?

You can't catch up to Obama's delegate count. You can't get the nomination without tearing the party apart. How long are you going to hang on?

Remember "Weekend at Bernie's?" The guy was dead, but they kept carrying him around. Your campaign is done; please quit carrying it around and destroying the Dems chances in the fall.

You are only destroying your credibility and future political career in the process. Surely you care about THAT.

please God let them vote again …..Hillary deserves those delegates
also the florida delegates. I am so sorry that an unknown can come along and cause so much trouble for a person ( Hillary) that has helped people all of her life…both black and white.

Hillary, please answer this question for America. Why did you, Hillary, agree to not include both Michigan & Florida when they asked you before the game started?

Why do you expect America to take you seriously now that you want to change the rules of the game in the middle of the game? America knows that the ONLY REASON you want to include them is NOT because of what you said but its because you are loosing and hoping that these 2 states will give you that lead.

If you REALLY care to have delegates from these 2 states, why not allow them to join but without it affecting the score?

What if the roles were reversed? Would you still give your opponent another opportunity or would you say, the rules we agreed to are the rules I am playing by. I played by the rules now can my opponent respectfully abide by the rules we BOTH agreed to. Fair is fair.

At the ripe age of 55, I am saddened to admit that I have been brought to tears by this modern day lynching/witchhunt of Barack Obama.
In this Great USA that everyone is fighting so hard to protect, right in front of our very eyes in year 2008, I am witnessing a man being nailed to the cross for sins that are not even his own.
Then we have the audacity to look around and wonder " where have all the good guys gone"

Obama is standed in the way of democracy and wants to disenfranchise the voters of Michigan and Florida. He says that it is unfortunate that these voters will be disenfranchised but that is the rules. Slavery was once the law of the land but that did not make it right. Obama needs to step up to the plate and compete, show the country that he is not afraid of a revote.
GO HILLARY CLINTON, DON'T GIVE UP, ITS NOT TO LATE AMERICA

This is foolish….give it up!!!!

consider the man's speech where he courted the continued support of blacks by NOT acknowledging the ignorance of a man he considers a mentor?….
no, i think there's a fly in the ointment….i smell racism at the core of a man who sat in the church of a hater for 20 years for what?….political advantage?……and if it wasn't for the black political connections, does it mean he endorsed the words of a true racist?
Michigan counts,as does Florida,,,,,,,,,Obama doesn't care to do the math now. (and all of you Obama Rooters?…..if Hillary and Bill were all for winning at any cost, don't you think they'd have thrown this out there from the start?…pay attention and think instead of feel.)
I think Mr.Obama's war chest is sufficiently full to bank this with Oprah in the wings?……

its so amusing to see how the hillary campaign team operate. There were rules set, she agreed to the rules, she had a big lead before a single vote was cast, thanks to the help of the media and super delegates. Now she is losing, and if not for super delegates she will be losing by an additional 30 delegates, possibly an additional 60 if the obviously support barak. Although she agreed to the rules at the onset, now that she is losing, she is looking to use underhand tactics by getting delegates out of michigan. seems she failed in florida. I understand the importance of everyones right to vote and i feel for florida and michigan voters, but if they think hilary cares about them, then it's not just the democratic party officials in those states that are a bit simple. Surely if she was losing in the polls in those states, she would no tbe pressing this hard for them to be reinstated.

SHAME ON YOU HILARY AND CNN FOR TURNING THIS INTO A RACIAL MOTIVATED ELECTION. THUS PROTECTING YOURSELVES AND AS USUAL PLAYING THE FIELD ON ALL SIDES.
I WISH WHEN YOU WOULD INTERVIEW PEOPLE TO DISCUSS ABOUT OTHERS , YOU WOULD TELL THE VIEWERS IF THEY ARE REPUBLICAN OR DEMOCRATES. THEN AND ONLY THEN WOULD WE TAKE THEIR OPINIONS MORE SERIOUSLY.

Of all the things that have bothered me about the Obama campaign, his lack of concern regarding the FL and MI voters ranks as the highest. Because of this, I don't believe he will practice what he preaches. I am a Clinton supporter but in all honesty I could care less about Rev. Wright or Ferraro for that matter. What I care about is how the candidate themselves stand for in the world. It is obvious he doesn't want to open the MI and FL votes, he is hiding behind the comfort of those states not counting, and that is not the kind of candidate he has positioned himself as. I'm glad Clinton is going there because no one else (like the media's treatment of him before this) is going to bring it up and actually fight for the people's vote to count. Yes, I believe a fighter is in order these days. Obama seems to bend with the wind, especially when it is beneficial to him.

I'll bet if Obama was behind in delegates, he would be right there with Hillary pressing for the re-vote. I understand Florida and Michigan broke the rules, but this is the single most important vote Americans have—voting for president of this country, and especially at this time. I believe this should be looked at from the aspect of fairness in picking the nominee and for no other reason. Obama's refusal to support a re-vote would seem to indicate that he is less confident and less inclined to fairness.

Come on Hillary just play by the rules for crying out loud..

SHE SHOULD ALSO REMIND THEM THE REASON OUR ECONOMY IS TANKING IS BECAUSE OF HER VOTE FOR THE 100 YEAR WAR. NA THAT WOULD BE TOO HONEST. HILLARY WILL PROBABLY REMIND THEM THAT SHE IS WHITE.

As a 27 yr old well-educated independent voter, I would never vote for the monster. Its either Obama or McCain, in that order.

Clinton and her do anything to win kind of politics. Too Bad.

The people with the very rash, negative reactions to Obama's speech are only reacting in this manner because they are fully aware of how brilliant the speech was and how positive a message it carried.

Obama knows that he has no chance in Mi and Fl so he is trying to spin it. After seeing how he tried to spin his minister's words, I won't put anything past him. The reality is that Mi and Fl votes have to count period. If not, then take two large wins from the Obama column to make it a fair game.

Why should the voters be subject to Barack Obama's approval for a re-vote? Their original votes should be counted, regardless. The voters of ALL states in this union have a RIGHT to have their voices heard and their votes counted. Who is the DNC to tell the states when they are allowed to hold their own elections anyway? And, why should Barack Obama be able to suppress the voices of the voters??? This makes me very angry.

Can someone please point out to me how Obama is preventing a revote. He has not done anything to stop one and is only following the DNC rules. It is not Obama's job to create a revote in Michigan, and it isn't Hillary's either. She is just trying to continue making it look like Obama is against Michigan votes counting when he is not as long as it is done fairly.

Can't change the rules in the middle of the game, Hillary. Get out of the race.

Rules are Rules!! As usual, Hillary Clinton is ALWAYS trying to change the rules!! Michigan and Florida both knew the rules of the DNC!! They chose to move their primaries ahead and consequently have to pay!! What is the old saying" "When you dance, you have to pay the Fidler?!!! Hillary –best thing you can do is substitute Elton John for the fidler and have a dance at your fundraiser!! SORRY HIL!
NO REDO'S IN FLORIDA OR MICHIGAN!!

Hillary knows she has no chance in hell of taking the lead in pledged delegates even if she wins the remaining states..

Her silver lining was Florida and Michigan .. Florida is out of the question now, so shes desperate for a re-vote in Michigan..

As long as the LIBERAL media is CORRUPT and is OWNED by Obama , this is irrelivant.

CNN could very easily run the angle and Obama attempting to block the voters a chance to have a say. Just like florida.

But NOPE. Its all done thru 'surrogates' for Obama . Obama is making a huge mistake here, but so what? He is utterly unelectable in the general election anyways.

Something to ponder…..if there is a re-do what will prevent the Republicans from voting for Hillary? Anyone can vote in this primary. Republicans believe Hillary would be easier to beat in November. Why would Obama agree to this??

It is over .!!! the rules are the rules. OVER!!!! taht all I'll say ….

Please Mrs. Clinton, know when your time is done. Let America and the DNC heal and close out your campaign. For once, do it for the people and not self……

Obama can do no wrong – his speech today is being received favorably even though he has a close personal relationship with a racist. Obama tries to be all things to all people – what kind of leadership is that? Clinton should do whatever it takes to secure the nomination – Obama has had enough underserved glory worship.

Billary is making the possible re-vote a non issue. With all her campaigning how could you have a fair election???

Mr Obama, the uniter of all people, except for those Americans in Michigan and Florida. He only wants voices heard if they are on his side of the fence.

Hillary is desparate. She is sceeming every direction she can. I still want to see what she is hidding on her taxes. So many secrets it is starting to catch up with her. So is reality.

Check out 'Hillary- The Movie' on You Tube or on the website The Clinton Project. Also check out Paul v Clinton forthcoming court case involving ALL the Clintons including Chelsea. Very interesting reading before you cast your votes…….

Good, Im glad someone is fighting for our votes to be counted!! She has mine!

The votes of all qualified voters should be counted toward their favored cadidate and in this case, it was Senator Hillary Clinton who received the most votes. If these votes had been cast for an Africian American candidate, there would be no question as to whether the votes would be counted. Every civil rights attorney and Black ctiizen would be demanding justice—-that the votes count.
Hopefully, one way or another, the voters in Michigan will have a voice in the race for the President of the United States.

Give them Hell Hillary. Please persevere. Ou hearts are out to you.

Hillary the only HOPE of 08 and the smart choice.

Barack blew it when he didn't ask Americans to forgive him for his initial, hair splitting lie about his knowledge of Rev. Write's words/views. Reconciliation and personal accountability is not Barack's style.

Hillary I know we all want those votes heard. I have heard they are working on it! It is in the best interest for Dems to count. But, rules must be followed and concerns addressed. Your aggressive
appoach by going to Michigan looks totally a desperate move and may cause more harm. I trust you will use good judgement before another outburst. The DNC is on our side!

Ell

Subject: Remember this picture on election day!
Let's all remember this on election day…if you have family serving in the military, make sure you send it along. I had heard about this but a picture is definitely worth 1000 words! God save us!!!

Vote Hillary
Senator Barack Obama, Governor Bill Richardson, Senator Hillary Clinton and Ruth Harkin stand during the national anthem.
Barack Hussein Obama's photo (that's his real name)…..the article said he REFUSED TO NOT ONLY PUT HIS HAND ON HIS HEART DURING THE PLEDGE OF ALLEGIANCE, BUT REFUSED TO SAY THE PLEDGE…..how in the hell can a man like this expect to be our next C ommander-in-Chief

If I remember correctly the Michigan proposal was no republicans voting, no one that already voted for the republican ticket can vote again, and it is funded by private money. It would be a purely democratic vote to show how they want the delegates to be seated. This would be the voice of Michigan. What does Obama think …. People don't deserve a second chance when there is a mistake. Do you think people don't deserve a second chance? Do we want to CHANGE and fix the mistake America. Who really wants to bring this country FORWARD …. the man who isn't even allowing peoples voices to be heard because "the rules are the rules". That doesn't sound like change now does it. Do we squabble like the past and allow for another Republican election?

IObama didn't want Florida and Michigan's vote before with his friend ,and minster Rev. Wright's outburst he really don't want to go there now..Like I have said all along it is his campaign throwing dirt,and race into this..Obama didn't have anything to say about the issues facing our country ,so his campaign decided to start with Bill while he was president then play the race card….He wants the African american people to follow him ,but I think they will get beyond race and get down to the issues at hand..There are bigger problems to solve in our country now..The point is who has the best experience???I know Hillary voted for the war,and if people are honesty who wouldn't have??Some people say they didn't vote for the war but was it because they Could'nt?The people that live in those two states have the right to vote as well as we do…After all it was Obama that said this is about the people..He didn't say except the people in Florida Or Michigan…Hillary is the one that can walk in on day one and do what is best for all of us..

Way to go Hillary!!! You are the strong leader this country need at the present time. Solutions for America. Keep fighting.

Hillary '08′

The problem is that there is no way to have a fair re-vote. Under Michigan law, Obama supporters who voted for McCain (because Obama was not on the ballot) would not be allowed to participate in a re-vote. This is one bell that cannot be un-rung.

HELLO! PEOPLE, HILLORY IS THE PERSON TO BE PRESIDENT
NOW. PLS. SWING YOUR VOTE TO HILLARY ALL THE WAY TO THE WHITE HOUSE. I WANT VOTERS FROM FLORIDA AND MICHIGAN TO DEMOSTRATE FOR THEIR RIGHTS AS THEY HAVE CAST THEIR VOTES TO HILLARY ALREADY.

HILLARY'S "FALSE WINS" HAVE GONE THROUGH HER HEAD AND CAMP HILLARY CONTINUE TO MAKE MIS-STATEMENTS! OBAMA HAS SAID ON MANY TIMES THAT HE FEELS THAT MICHIGAN AND FLORIDA SHOULD HAVE THE RIGHT FOR A RE-VOTE!

THROWING THIS TRASH OUT LIKE IT IS FACT FROM CAMP HILLARY IS PROOF THAT SHE HAS NO ETHICS — NO CHARACTER — NO INTEGRITY!

SHE REMINDS ME OF GEORGE BUSH — LIAR, LIAR, PANTS ON FIRE!

Why not,like a fly hovering over a turd, will stop at nothing. So today I'm watching cnn for a while instead of the bedbug network.

Yes, counting votes in an election where there is only one candidate is not a good look for anyone, especially if they call themselves "democratic"!

This woman is a disgrace………

When will she get it in her head that the American people do not want her and her dishonest tactics?

And that goes for THE LIAR " I did not have sex with that woman, Monica Lewinski" husband of hers……

All they are doing is destroying the democratic party.

Billary needs to just forget about it and try again in eight years.

Obama/Edwards'08!

Move on people. Rules are Rules. If Hillary was so concerned about voters is Michigan and Florida she should have spoken out BEFORE the rules were set or at least have made an issue out of it early on. Now she can't just go back and cry about it now that she's down and needs there votes. People in Michigan should feel offended not only that there vote didn't matter to begin with but it only matters now because she needs them.

Loved Obama's speech today and am looking forward to the one tomorrow.

OBAMA 08

Yes, counting votes in an election is not a good look for anyone, especially if they call themselves "democratic"!

Strange that when Hillary's game plan was to have the nomination wrapped up by Super Tuesday, she didn't say boo about the poor disenfranchised voters of Michigan and Florida. She made a pledge and now shamelessly refuses to back it up. makes you wonder what will become of pledges that will get her elected?

She never stops her shameless acts

My understanding is that there isn't the money to have another election. This has nothing to do with Obama not wanting an election and everything to do with the state of MI messing up to begin with and now trying to change the rules.

Michigan Welcomes Hillary , and wants a re vote .

To the Obama campaign managers,

Do not allow them to pressure you. The Clinton campaign has broken the rules and must abide by them. It is un-american to cheat when knowingly you agree to a previous agreement. It not the Obama campaign fault that the State of Michigan and Florida broke the rules. I would not agree to re-vote in neither state because it is not attended for Obama to win any votes nor to win the primary. I smell a trap. The DNC should not allow this to happen. This not fair. I will protest against this even after the primary election are over. The American people can not afford to spend more money on re-vote election. This is the same thing happening all over again when Gore and Bush were campaigning.

Hillary intent on changing the rules. How petty and typical.

Talk about disenfranchising the voters! How does Obama think this is going to play out in the general election IF he were to get the nomination? Talk about trying to do anything to get elected! If Obama doesn't work towards a new election in Michigan (and also Florida, although that seems unlikely now) he will be putting his political aspirations in front of the voting public. How can democrats discount two of the most important states in the general election! It is ridiculous! He should agree to a re-vote in both states and them campaign so they can deem the election fair. If the situation was reversed you better believe he would be asking for a re-vote. Wake up democrats of both Clinton and Obama supporters! If this was your state wouldn't you want your vote counted?! This should be appalling to all democrats no matter who your vote is going for.

Michigan does deserve to have their voices heard regardless of who they choose for the Democratic nominee!

Are Obama supporters delusional??? They must be! How can a man sit in a church for 20+ years listening to racially charged hate speeches and expose his children to those messages on top of that?! I think that's poor judgment on his part! SHAME ON YOU BARACK OBAMA!!!

HILLARY '08!

Obama is a standard politician, he knew he would loose Michigan so he took his name off the ballot.
Now he knows he would loose again so he is stalling a revote until it is too late, similar to the recount on Florida in 2000, were Harris said they should recount but it was too late.
Similarly Obama has the double standard on the Wright issue, refer back to his handling of the Imus (MSNBC) issue:
""There’s nobody on my staff who would still be working for me if they made a comment like that about anybody of any ethnic group. And I would hope that NBC ends up having that same attitude,” Obama told ABC News in an April 11 interview."
So he did not have the same unifying understanding for Imus as he did for Wright obviously. Obviously at the time it was not strategic to come out in the open with the race issue.
Humm……

Obama just knows he'll lose Michigan and Florida to Clinton by solid margins and he doesn't want to look bad.

Not allowing the people of Michigan from taking part speaks volumes of Senator Obama and his campaign for "change."

He lacks the backbone to lead and make the tough decisions.

Because of the way his campaign has handled this and the fact that I know he'll lose Michigan to McCain.

let them revote its there right to be counted what is obama afraid of i thought he was for unity and change if he is he will agree for the revote if not just empty words and more lies from him

Wouldn't be fair and wouldn't matter anyway – Hillary has lost.

Why won't he say let's do this?

Michigan voters were told their votes would not count, as were the candidates, thus why they did not campaign and why all (except Clinton) took their names off the ballot.

Since many independent Obama supporters knew their vote would not count, and since they couldn't vote for Obama anyway since his name was not on the ballot, they opted to vote in the Republican campaign.

Now, under the current proposal, since they voted Republican only because their choice was not an option, they are not allowed to participate in the re-vote.

Awfully convenient for Clinton, who in October said Michigan wouldn't count, to suddenly push for Michigan since she won and is guaranteed to win because a large segment of Obama supporters are shut out.

Yeah! Go get those votes. You earned them.

Michigan MUST have a revote and Florida should count the existing delegates. All states should have an opportunity to pick the candidate and they should not be penalized for wanting to have their voices heard.

Whatever it takes, right Hillary?

Actually the vote should be counted as it stands now since Senator Obama campaigned against Senator Clinton as "uncommitted". If the delegates cannot be seated as they should be, then let's have a redo. What are you afraid of Senator Obama? Are you afraid of a revote because you did not tell the truth on Anderson Cooper's 360 show on Friday when you said you were never present during one of your minister's hateful sermons? Either agree to let the delegates be seated as earned by Senator Clinton fair and square or agree to a revote. Howard Dean: This message is for you. Release the delegates in Florida and Michigan according to the January vote. Punish Michigan and Florida by making them vote last in 2012. Don't punish the states or the people that already voted. The Democrats won't win in the Fall if we turn our banks on the voters of these two states. Senator Clinton did not campaign in either state. She still won. I will never vote for Senator Obama without a fair solution to the Michigan and Florida delegate problem. Release the delegates Howard Dean. Save these two states and the people of this country the millions needed to revote. You are being unfair to Senator Clinton.

So the Obama campaign is against the Clinton Camp for asking the votes to count in FL and MI and they're against HRC in asking for a re-vote. Hmmmm, what would make them happy, allowing the voices of close to 2.5 million democratic voters go away???

I imagine he doesn't say "Let's do this" because it shouldn't be done.

If these states revote, then the 2012 election schedule will be pure chaos. Any state could schedule itself ahead of any other, and if the DNC protests, the states can just point and laugh and mention the precedent set in 2008.

Obama followed the rules set forth and agreed to BY ALL.

To paint him as the villain now for advocating continuing to adhere to them is utterly beyond the pale.

Has it never occurred to Hillary to be unable to acquire something she longs for? How can she stoop herself to such a point of openly asking that rules be changed in order to favor her? It is far better for one to lose an election but keep one's dignity than to stoop oneself in an attempt to win. In every election, there are always a winner and losers. Else, the concept of election would be self-contradicting and meaningless. By the way, what is Hillary's definition of the word "election"?

Obama, the uniter, doesn't want Michigan and Florida to hold do over primaries. Why? This is not a leader of all 50 states. Obama and Howard Dean and the DNC will have no one but themselves to blame if Obama gets the nomination and loses in Nov. If the DNC and their RULES decides that millions of peoples votes aren't counted, they will see an exodus of democrates becoming independents or worse republicans. If they want to win in Nov. they had better quit saying rules are rules and try to fix this. The DNC made this mess with their RULES and if they want to keep the party together they better do something and fast. The liberals golden boy isn't golden any more and not electable. This is one democrate who is getting fed up with the whole mess.
Carol Scio Oh.

Obama doesn't want these states to get a vote because he would lose FLorida and might lose Michigan. By omitting concerns about this type of disenfranchisement in his speech today, he proved that the only "race" he is concerned about is the one for the democratic primary.

Senator Clinton is right to support a revote in Michigan, and both candidates should insist that Florida be counted. If Obama were ahead in Florida and Clinton had more delegates at thsi point in time, you can bet your rear that this would be a different game.

I am proud to support a candidate who wants all American votes to count, and hardly enthralled with a candidate who picks and chooses what he considers to be divisive and what he considers to be fair politics.

Howard Dean — step up to the plate and live by the standards that have made me a Democrat.

Barack Obama — if you beleive in unity, prove it by not trying to win on a 48 state delegate count.

Clinton's campaign said the New York senator will remain on the ballot. Chris Dodd also plans to stay on the ballot. "We're honoring the pledge and we won't campaign or spend money in states that aren't in compliance with the DNC calendar," Clinton spokesman Jay Carson said.

I would think that this might be an outlook of what her presidency would entail. She cannot even keep a promise for 6 months, what is to say she will keep her campaign promises for 4 years?

Give Michigan their voice!
if Barack Obama and David Axelrod believe in their own message of hope for the people, they should agree to the primary revote.

It is about America and the people you will be serving as President, it is Michigan (and Florida's) "right" to have their vote count.

So when it might not benefit Obama, he doesn't want all the votes to be counted? Disenfranchising Michigan and Florida to win a primary, won't get you the Presidency!! The state party for these two states made the decision to move the primary date, not the voters.

"YES WE CAN"….APPARENTLY MEANS "NO YOU WON'T" TO CERTAIN GROUPS OF PEOPLE!!

Just keep us more $ and $ and $, then we will be Do eat More Dems.

Good grief, the "monster" just won't quit trying to change the rules, will she?

Hillary initially agreed to not count Florida and Michigan. Now, SHE'S SO DESPERATE to win at any cost, she going AGAINST HER OWN PROMISE.

Liar.
Manipulator.
Cheater.

Yep. It appears she DID learn a lot from her husband.

WE DON'T WANT ANOTHER CLINTON WHITE HOUSE.

Why would Obama agree to push a re-vote with Hillary?

It is not the re-vote at issue rather than the rules that were agreed to in the beginning. If Obama changed his mind now, Hillary suppoters would say he flip-flops on issues.

It is unfair for Hillary to try and drag Obama to her level of deception and changing the rules mid-game.

Shame on you Hillary!

To paraphrase an old saying, "The squeeky weasel gets the grease," and Hillary is squeeking pretty loud. Methinks she is doing her best to steal this election at any cost.

If Obama wants to leave the citizens of Michigan out of choosing a nominee, how can he ask for their votes in November…should he be the nominee.
So, in effect, he must believe he can win the general election without Florida or Michigan.
I think that is nearly impossible.
Hopefully, the DNC Credentials Committee with have more sense, and seat the delegates, per the states primaries. Giving the delegates to Hillary.
She has proven she can win the major states, California, NY, Florida, Texas, Ohio, and she is on track for winning Pennsylvania.
She has done well in traditionally GOP areas.
She can beat McCain, because she can stand up to the GOP attack machine.
Senator Obama can not stand up to the mild criticism of his own party.
Lets get real. We need those states in November, so we need to recognize them now.

Sorry Hillary, we already have a corrupt politician in Detroit lying to us on a daily basis (Google: Kwame perjury)

Funny how Hillary apparently thinks she'll win a MI redo. Fat chance. I don't know if you knew this, Hillary, but last time you "won" MI, a certain opponent wasn't on the ballot.

Don't insult our intelligence by thinking that MI will vote for you. We may be struggling economically, but we're still plenty astute enough to avoid being swayed by your inconsistencies, maudlin theatrics, and dirty campaign tactics.

GO AWAY.

Give it up Hillary you need to play by the rules set in place by the DNC.
You knew the rules when you were twenty points ahead in the polls and you were not concerned then. You said the election meant nothing. So guess what. NOTHING IS WHAT YOU GET!

CNN where you get your polls regarding the quality of candidates?

With all this racial scandal Obama has ,Americans are switching to Hillary Clinton.

Obama will have a free fall today onwards,we can see inside Obamas heart now. the skelotons start to work out of his closet now;

where yo ugot 56 % that Obama can bring change when he is racist.

This really was a great speech. What started as a review of character…uncovers a lapse in judgement – choice of mentor/church membership…highlights the radical opinion of Wright…Obama denies hearing any such comments…provides some distance to Wright…makes a speech highlighting his enduring relationship…subtlely admits hearing the comments…turns the lapse of judgement and controversy into national racism.

It's really incredible to see how desperate Clinton is now, in searching of the least delegate, even with a torch.
That's just stupid, how many times are we gonna say the same thing Clinton ? This state broke the party's rules, from the beginning you agreed not to campaigning there and not to count the state just like all the other candidates who've dropped now, but now that you're loosing slowly but surely, you're lobbying for a revote in this state, how can we trust you when you cant' respect your word ? And you wanna be president of this country…
sadness Clinton, really sadness…

Well this should be no surprise that Obama cannot make a commitment to resolve the issue of a re-vote either in Michigan or Florida. It appears that he is always leaving the decision for others to make. Let's not forget how many "present" votes he made instead of an up or down vote.

I firmly believe he does not want a re-vote because he knows that the results would probably be the same (if not better) and Hillary Clinton would finally be in the lead. That is what he is afraid of.

If Senator Obama cannot even make a decision on these two States, how can anyone trust him to make very important decisions at the White House? Wake up people. We know that Hillary is more qualified.

GO HILLARY 08.

Same old, same old. The same old guard thinks the nation will simply continue to follow lock step behind a failed and doomed policy in the middle east. Just because you and Dubya say it's so, John, doesn't mean it's right…and, you and Dubya have lost this one man's vote.

Goal Post Hillary…where do you draw the line?

Stamp your foot and pout until you get your own way again. Cafferty asked if you would do anything to be president-what wouldn't you do. You signed an agreement to abide by Michingan NOT counting. Your word means about as much as your husbands you grasping, lying shrew.

Obama took that race card and shreded it for you and your wax-works cohorts. Your like a bully on the playground. I give you an N for plays nicely with others. And an N for being a spoiled brat. You can't win. Leave with a little DIGNITY. Your husband has none, you have repeatedly shown your lack of it by staying. JUST GO.

Michigan has a right to have a say but she should wait till they both can campaign there and if she wins so be it.
I voted for her I'm just beginning to know Obama and likes the fact that he can bring the party together.

Desperate times call for desperate measures… would you be so worried about the delegates being seated in these states if you were winning? Of course not and please spare us the talk about seating the delegates as they were from the initial primary in Florida. Thank you in advance.

It irks me that my vote and all of Michigan may not be counted in the Presidential Primary! We deserve to be counted just as the rest of the country is counted. It was not our fault the date was changed, we did not ask for it to be changed. We deserve for our vote to be counted!

Uhhh if Hillary is so concerned with the voter being heard, why in the world did she try to stop the Texas Caucuses? Why did she threaten lawsuits in our state? Why is she still trying to get the county caucus voting delayed or overturned?

No Michigan…No Florida…it isn't about the average voter being heard at all…It is all about power to Hillary.

It is unfortunate that Obama took his name off in Michigan. Oh, Clinton left her name on! Seems like Clinton has exhibited better judgment. In my opinion, Clinton has the knowledge and understanding of politics needed. Let us not forget that Obama is applying for the job of President which does require a comprehensive understanding of Washington,this country, and the world. Clinton will make changes and has NEVER said things would remain the same. Instead of professing change,change,and more change, Clinton speaks of issues and how to resolve (change) them. Lastly, I would like to know if Obama is a uniter, and if he is, why not include the voters in Michigan and Florida?

Gov. Jennifer Granholm moved MI state primary up in order to give Clinton a name brand advantage and it 's back firing on her now.

Somehow, Clinton and Granholm think that they can blame Obama for this mess. Amazing.

LETS HAVE THE VOTE ….WHAT IS OBAMA AFRAID OF…………CAMPBELL BROWN WAS HOSTING 360 TONIGHT AND SHE HAD MOSTLY BLACK PEOPLE ON …I AM SURE THIS WAS TO PAINT OBAMA IN A GOOD LIGHT…..AND FOR GOD SAKES GET ROLAND OFF THIS SHOW …IAM SICK OF LISTENING TO AND LOOKING AT HIM ON EVERY SHOW ON CNN……..

Well of course she will, Hill can't help but do everything she can to change the rules. She's an anything goes kinda girl!

I hope Hillary gets a re-vote in Michigan. She is the best person for the job of President. McCain has my vote if Obama is the democratic nominee. It was bad enough that the Hillary campaign was accused of being racist for daring to be critical of Obama. Now he is playing the slavery card. I've had enough. As a white male, I have never been racist. But now I see what racism is. And it is blacks who are being racist, not whites. But they call it "black pride". We have had "white pride" groups too and they have been properly labeled as racist. "Black pride" is just as racist. After this primary, I might have to give the "white pride" groups a second look. If Obama wins, I better join. McCain will probably start another war overseas, but Obama will start a war right here at home.

Michigan and Florida violated the rules of the democratic party about holding primaries before their time. Singer says the ball is in Obama's court. Why should Obama play that game. Clinton wants to play foul ball. Wasn't there an agreement the canidates would not campaign in those states, and Clinton did anyway? While the other canidates did not.. Florida realized; and now should Michigan, that it is too late. Those states should be punished. It is too bad for those state voters whom can't have their votes count. The only fair way for this matter to be resolved is to split those votes down the middle or let the punishment stand. Time for change. The ball in the american people's count. Don't fumble the ball.

I am a Clinton supporter, but I respect Barack Obama as well. Let them revote, Obama has nothing to lose and it isn't like he doesn't have a great chance of winning. Wayne County voted for 'Uncommitted' over Clinton…

OBAMA HIMSELF SAID HE WANT MICHIGANS VOICE TO BE HEARD SO WHY DOSEN"T HE GO AHEAD AND AGREE ON THE RE-VOTE?????

THIS IS SHOW ME JUST HOW THE MAN HE IS!!!!

I UNDERSTAND TAHT HIS NAME WASN'T N THE BALLOT BUT COME ON THE REVOTE WILL BE FAIR FOR BOTH

Billary is D-E-S-P-E-R-A-T-E and its getting comical and sad at the same time.

Scoreboard Obama

Is Hillary going to pay for the re-vote with her "private money" that of course wlll not be disclosed for decades. Is it legal for a "democratic" election to be paid for with private funds?

There is no reason to hold another primary. Play by the rules. Ofcourse the Clintons have never done that!!!

I am a 47 year old African American Woman. I have watched Cnn faithfully over the last 5 years. I have watched and listen more frequently since the presidential race. I am a democrat and I try to be open and understanding to most of the political comments and programs you all have regarding the presidential campaign. I am not one that ever writes or call about my opinion on what I see and hear on most news channels. But tonight I was compelled to send an email to you all regarding your coverage of the Obama Barack speech. Did you guys here anything that was said in his speech?
Your covering of this has been negative, overbearing and out right wrong. It seems that the media is intentionally tryin to put a negative spin on this campaign and the African American church and it's preachers. What about Hillary Clinton Church? Have you been to her church to find out what her Preacher is preaching about? You are wrong to judge the black church and the black preacher. If you going to keep taking about his preacher maybe you should talk about all the candidates religion beliefs and the constiution on their religion.

Welcome to Detroit senator Clinton. Now we have you, the fine very text message capable mayor, and our governor who, according to her, hasn't made a mistake in her life. Hilary can take Kwame's possee and gorgeous Jen for cabinet positions in her mythical presidency.

I'm sick of her proclaiming how she 'won' Michigan. But then again what is 'is'?

What seems to be at odds with common sense is that both Obama and Clinton agreed to specific terms prior to the election. The Obama campaign has consistently said, "What ever the DNC decides we will honor." Why can't Clinton take the same Presidential tone and let the decision come down through proper channels instead of trying to CONTROL things. This seems to be a theme for Clinton, if it's not to her liking attack, attack, attack and not come up for air until everyone else is left in shreds…like the Democratic party.

Now everyone is going to reward Michigan a re-vote and allow them to have a decisive role in deciding the next Democratic candidate. This is EXACTLY the reason Michigan and Florida lost their votes.

In four years I would love to see each and every state, one after the other, move their primaries up earlier and earlier as they compete to be the one with the edge in picking the next party candidate. Heck, we should just have all the 2012 primaries and caucuses on the Wednesday after this November's election. That way we'll not only save hundreds of millions of dollars, but will be spared the non-stop dribble and sensationalism coming out of the MSM every night.

I will add that trickle down ecnomics is not the answer (it doesn't work), nor is bigger government (socialism). The invasion of special interests in our country has allowed this to happen. Not capitalism per say but this idea of globalization. As Bellamy wrote a truck full of gold can't buy bread, and it shouldn't be able too. Nor should a barrel of oil. I think that The song by Sting, "Russians" put it best when he sang, "There is no monopoly of common sense on either side of the political fence. We share the same biology regardless of ideology."

Way to go Hillary. Obama is doing nothing to get a re-vote for Michigan and Florida. That just shows that he believes their vote shouldn't count. If he wins the nomination then he will not win both of those states.

Typical Obama strategy. Win at all costs, even if you have to be instrumental in disenfranchising voters in two large states. Come on out, Obama, and fight like a man! Go there, campaign, and let the votes fall where they will. Just because the states in question hold primaries instead of caucuses doesn't necessarily mean you'll lose.

Give it up Hillary. The rules were laid down. You agreed to the rules. Now you want to change them because you are unexpectedly in the fight of your political life. Typical Clinton underhanded tricks to get your, and only your, way. Phew, the bitter smell of politics as usual in the Oval Office.

Obama '08~Real change we can believe in.

Obama always says he wants to include everyone. I guess Michigan and Florida aren't part of that plan.
What a surprise.

Man…..that woman has no shame.

Face it Hillbilly…..Obama has won. The fat woman is singing loudly, and Bill has his arm around her already.

Hillary should really be lighting a flame under Howard Dean. It was his comittee and the DNC's rules that put Michigan (and Florida) out of bounds. The real problem is why not have 're-do's' everywhere – why stop with Michigan or Florida? This darn party of ours has had this issue with votes since the 2000 election. I wish they'd get over it alrady and realize you can't keep on voting over and over again until you get the result you want. I am more 'disenfranchised' now than I ever was after the 2000 elections.

Obama preaches a different kind of politics! With him standing in the way of this potential re-vote he is no different than the republicans. After this last week…this dem is going to vote McCain in the general election if BO is on the ballot!

gallup tracking poll….today tuesday

clinton vs. obama +3

clinton vs. mccain +5

enough said

obama knows that he will get a trouncing in these states if he agrees to let them revote.
his image is done, and his refusal to be a part of the solution in these two states is a clear sign that he wants forgiveness for being in the pew's of a controversial church.
but cant extend that forgiveness to Florida and michigan

bowling green, mo.

I am not surprised by the desperation of the Clinton's to win at all cost including bending the rules whenever it is (or not) convenient for her.

So we are waiting on Obama to say sure, lets let Michigan have a say. Why hasn't he already done so, what is he waiting for. If he thinks he is the nopminee you think he would be ready to help everyone vote. I think we all need to remember that the Republicans in these 2 states decided for Demacrats. These are two really important states who deserve a their voices heard. Florida was completely under Republican control as well, but all the canidates were on the ballot. Nobody campaigned in florida althouth Barack ate up some major air time on t.v. the day before the primary. Great for Michigan to get it right by june 3rd. Florida on the other hand needs to be counted since it was a fair primary.

What? Isn't this the guy that said he consults Wright before bold political moves? The same one who holds hand with Rezko and Farrakhan? What will come to light next is my question?

No revote . Stop wasting time. Who is raising this private money? Hillary's pals want to buy the election. I get it. She has a whole lot of credibility!

Sounds like the same old politics, Chicago style, from the Obama camp. A lot of rhetoric and inspired speechmaking but where's the action. great judgment call Obama!

Michigan cannot afford to pay for a private election for delegates. The DNC should make that decision at the convention and award the delgates as decided in the first primary election. Barak chose to remove his name and that was his choice. Clinton kept her name on the ballot and that was her choice. We all have to live with the choices we make good or bad. Don't put the State of Michigan in a ;position to spend money for your private organization the Democratic Party. It is your problem you find the solutions within your parties rules.

I hope Obama agrees to re-vote and stand up for what he claims his campaign is about (voters) .. let's see if he can give arousing speech to convence Michiganders that it's for their own good not to vote !

I can expect him to claim anything he wants as long as the media is aplauding .

THERE GOES AN AFRICAN SAYING"THOUGH THE TORTOTISE IS SLOW. IT WII EVETUALLY GET TO IT'S DESTINATION.
HILLARY" THOUGH YOU ARE TRAILLING ON THE DELEGATES, KEEP GOING. YOU WILL SURELY GET TO YOUR DESTINATION'
SLOOOOOOOOOOLY BUT SUREEEEEEEEEEEEEEEELY

Obama must live in a dream world. If he blocks the Michigan re-run, any chance that he have would have to win the general election is lost. Michigan will go Republican. He is going to lose all of the southern and border states, all the normal red states and with Michigan, Game over!

Of course she is pushing it. She needs these delegates so badly…… forgetting that she as well agree to the terns of not counting Michigan and Florida…… Just never thought that she could even be in such a losing position… Winning at all costs. This leaves a very bad taste in my mouth!!!

As a lawyer, Hillary should know what signing a paper means and what it says. Stop trying to change what you agreed too and just carry on or are you that pigheaded and stupid.

I don't feel that the people of Michigan should lose thier vote becouse of any agreement our representives made without our consent. I feel like I have been stripped of my right to vote as an American, And I promise you this if Obama stands in the way of my vote or if the Democrat Party keeps my vote from counting I will vote Republician in November. I am tired of the Democrats messing up in the party and more worried about what state votes first ,then they are about repesenting my vote. Ellie

Win by any means necessary!

I think this is a great idea. If Obama is so sure he will win Michigan (as his supporters suggest) than why not do it? It is hard to imagine Obama winning MI in the general with him telling the voters that they don't matter. Sounds like somone is willing to hurt the Democratic Party in order to secure the nomination. Hint: That someone is not Hillary Clinton. To prempt the tired arguments that will follow, the voters in Michigan did not do anything wrong. Democratic Party elites did. If you want to punish someone for breaking the rules, punish them!

Hillary 08

I am sooooo tired of the Clinton-Obama Obama-Clinton debate. I will be hard presseed to vote for either. I wouldn't vote for Clinton because she represents old school politics and any woman that can support and use her husband after what he did, there is something wrong with that, like they are tied together because of lies. I don't know how but it does make me think. Obama, I like. I really think he is genuine and does represent a real change from older people in politics to a new generation waiting to get in. But I am so sick of the media coverage of both, I will vote for Mcain. Plus McCain knows we spent over a trillion dollars (which is unfathomble), but what is a few more billion if we win.

It takes 8 years for political economics to take place, so that means it isn't Bush that got us in this economic crisis, but Clinton.

I wonder if her campaign theme song is Pistol Packing Mama, because she seems to start a fire fight with her NY thugs against democracy.
With very few states left and time running on the clock how stupid are these people they can't win! So Billary go away like Spitzer your a clown.

Obama's only issue is that he won't win. The same reason why he pulled his name the first time.

He should not be able to block this vote and disenfranchise Michigan's voters.

Gee, I thought she was going to stay out of this and let the states and the DNC work it out? Two-faced liar.

Hey Cafferty! Add this to your "Clinton will do anything" pile!

To change the rules during the game has alway been a decitefull thing to do. And still is. Everybody knew the rules going in and the DNC has better not disappoint America with this kind of stupid/ uncalled, behavoir. Play Fair is the only way to go!!!!!!!!!!!!

Most every body I know is for CHANGE/ but this is NOT the kind of change we Americans are looking or deserve for that matter. You pulled the trigger and the bullet has left the barrel, so get the hell out of the way and let it find it,s mark.

You can change the rules for the next go around and that would be just fine. #1 Get rid of Super Delegates. They are injust any way you look at them. One of them just left. Spitzer was his name. Nothing super about him either.

We are all equal in this country and should be treated that way.

give it up, Hil! you're looking pathetic!!!

Wake up Democrats you’re playing into exactly what the Republicans want. They are hoping for a Barack Obama win so they don’t have to go up against Hillary. The media, including CNN, MSNBC and FOX News are all helping them get what they want. The male dominated media seems to be afraid of a Hillary win. The thought of women in power is bringing out the worse in the media – they are making up the news instead of reporting what is really going on. Women and Men, who truly want a change, get out and vote for Hillary – don’t let the media and the republicans control this one!
Chris Matthews MSNBC and CNN they should be Shame They Always taking trash against Hillary enough is enough!!

There she goes again,,, always someonelse to blame, please fix your tax problem first, taljk about your trial coming in april 25, and meaby after you will have a chance to talk about 'Michigan' but please can you wait?

Clinton will win the rest of the states. The Super Delegates will not go with Obama as a result of his years of sermons wishing to institute some real change, what kind of change are we talking about though? How much change? and what….what are you going to do when you sit down with N. Korea, Iran, Cuba…how much are you going to change after sermons of hating how America has, what we brought on to ourselves. Makes you go Hmmmm?

Is anyone else as concerned, wow!!!!!!!!!

What is Obama afraid of——-just go ahead and do it! He's toast anyway, sine he refuses to disown Rev. Wright and his concomitants.

No Revote

Clinton is a snake

Every VOTE should Count! No matter if you are Democrat, Republican or Independent. The Millions of Voters in Michigan and Florida did not know that their Delegates would be striped, this was done after the change in Primary dates. I'm sure if Democratic Party clearly Stated to the Voters of Both States that their Votes would not count. I'm sure the Voters would have told their Parties not to move up the Dates to begin with! It seems the Democratic Leaders are Punishing Millions of Voters for the actions of a Few Party members! And we are trying to set an example for the People around the World? Looks like the Democratic Party is becoming the Laughing Stock of the World. Pushing Democracy around the World, but you can't pull it off in our own Country! Maybe we should have all the Michigan and Florida Voters do as the Iraq People have done, line up a dip your finger in the Purple Goo. Shameful!

GO HILLARY!!!!!

RE-VOTE or COUNT THE VOTES ALREADY CAST.

Hillary is playing fair game even she won January election. I don't understand why Obama is afraid of re vote. He said he can unite Americans, then he will unite Michigan voters, he said he inspire people then go ahead inspire Michigan voters. Obama team play foul. Obama team said split Florida delegates, it is toddlers game manner. His slogan is change, what he wants to change? Two years Senator is dirtier than others, voters are smarter than Obama and his supporters. Hillary is bigger than Obama and other men. I heard her Iraq War message on C-span, I was impressed by her brilliant message about plan. She is ready for the next President on day one. Go Hillary, you got American's support.

Revote!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It is the right of the people to have thier votes counted!

wow how desperate they are both clinton, just before april 25!!!!!

The clinton campaign is being divisive. The Obama campagin isn't really against a re-vote but want to make sure it is help properly. Don't forget who was complaining about the Nevada and Texas caucuses – and they have been set up prior to this election. It has never been about the people for Hillary, but about winning. This is not someone I want in the White House.

A last-minute campaign stop to continue to try to destroy her party. Why isn't everyone freaking out about this?

At first I just thought Hillary's antics only discredited her own brand (the kid who you didn't want to join your game on the playground b/c they can't play by the rules). However, I am starting to see her as something far more dangerous.

I guess we can count on Clinton to press for a do-over in spite of the apparent rule breaking. To the Clintons, breaking the rules isn't any cause for the consequences to be endured! What does this say to America's young?

What is Obama afraid he will not win in this state. What kind of a leader is that. I know, just words, just more lies.

A do over is patently unfair, no matter how much Clinton (who agreed until she was behind), her crazy staff (who by the way enacted the penalty in the first place) and her supporters (who are lusting hyenas?) say it should happen. It won't.

Wow, talk about pushy. This is why I did not vote for her in our Florida primaries because she needs to learn when to hold 'em and when to fold 'em. This is the exact thing that scares me about her is that she is just wayyyyyy to demanding. Good leaders know how and when to push the limits. I guess all of her alledged experience did not teach her that part of Leadership 101.

Mitch again… Lets hope he don't let you down this time.

Clinton will win the rest of the states. Super Delegate will not go with Obama as a result of years of sermons wishing to institute some real change, what kind of change are we talking about thought? How much change? and what….what are you going to do when you sit down with N. Korea, Iran, Cuba…how much are you going to change after sermons of haiting how America has been what we brought on to ourselves. Make you go Hmmmm?

Come on DNC you know these votes in Michigan and Florida should count. After this election if you don't let it happen. You will never be my Party of choice again. Too much KENNEDY< DEAN. Risregard anything the liar Obama has to say about it. HILLARY 08

HERE WE GO…HILLARY WILL DO ANYTHING TO GET THE NOMINATION!! I FEEL FOR THE PEOPLE OF MICHIGAN AND FLORIDA BUT THEY HAVE ONLY THEIR STATE LEADERS TO BLAME FOR THIS. WHY DIDN'T CLINTON GO TO MICHIGAN WHEN THE DECISION WAS MADE TO PENALIZE THE STATE….NOW THAT SHE NEEDS EVERY DELEGATE/POPULAR VOTE/ SUPER DELEGATE, SHE'S ALL ABOUT MICHIGAN!!! AS THE DAYS GO BY, I THINK SHE'S IN THIS JUST FOR HER OWN RECOGNITION!!

What is Obama afraid of?

Hillary continues dragging down the entire Democratic party while the Republicans are meeting world leaders on global security and arming wall street heavyweights and major banks with all the tools they need to loan heavy bags to the Repubcalin party in the Nov elections.

And since Hillary won't bow-out gracefully, she shall have no room nor grace to retain her Senate seat the first opening we get. This is hardball politics, if the Clintons understand.

No revote. It is not about the people, it's about being behind in the delegate race. All candidates agreed in the beginning with the rules. How in the world can anyone now say the rules are unfair. Divide the delegates down the middle to allow the delegates to be seated. Keep the no revote stance to let other states know that this will not be tollerated in future elections. Bottom line FL & MI broke the rules and all candidates knew up front. Let's move on.

Hillary is our only HOPE!!

Hillary, be careful what you wish for….!

Nuts. Come on people – let these people vote!

This has been said before but if Hillary was ahead in popular vote, delgates and states won do you REALLY think she would be doing this?? I doubt it. I don't think Obama would stoop to beg like we are seeing with her campaign, just a little different spin beings it's a Clinton…. Go Figure…….

Split the delegates evenly so the delegates can be seated at the convention. If her [Hillary] true concern is for the voters in both states [MI & FL] to be heard then a split would accomplish that. But that isn't the method to her madness. She thinks she would benefit from a re-do, she's not concerned with the voters of these states, and that is why she wants to change the rules during the game. Everything she says and does oozes gamesmanship and that is why I don't trust her.

Yes We Can!!

By the way…Thank you for speaking candidly today on the issue of race in this country. It's about time we had a politician who doesn't dance around the issue but takes it head-on even though some would say it's not the popular thing to do. You will united this country.

OBAMA SO MUCH FOR THIS NOT BEING RED STATES OR BLUE

STATES BUT THE UNITED STATES..

YOU LIED ABOUT ABOUT NOT BEING IN A REV. WRIGHT SERMON

AND YOU LIED ABOUT UNITING US…

BE A MAN OF YOUR WORD….ALLOW THE REVOTE !!!!

Let it go Hillary, you will not win the nomination no matter what.
Simply let it go! loser!

Go Obama!

I cannot believe that they are attempting to blame this on Obama. What a conniving political move. I hope people, rather a Clinton supporter or not actually believes that it is Barack's fault for Florida and Michigan not being able to form a resolution on a re-vote, because that notion is absolutely ludacris. The rules were set forth, Florida and Michigan broke those rules, and as a consequence, they lost their delegates. Is it fair? In some people's eyes it may be, and in other's not. Nonetheless, the rules were the rules, and Barack shouldn't be forced to compromise the FL&MI breaking those rules.

a wonderful little thing call Democracy is getting in QUEEN HILLARYS" WAY

H. Cinton proves time and time again the only thing she brings to the conversation is confusion

FLIP FLOP true to form Hillary. You signed the document banning any delegates from states that bumped up their primaries. It is amazing how now all of a sudden Hillary thinks the votes should count. Can it be that is because she is losing the race???????? Shallow politicians are not hard to point out.

Because it's her only remote hope.

GIVE IT UP DEMS, YOU LOST!

If obama can't say "let's go ahead and do this" then how can he expect these 2 states to vote for him in november.

My personal feeling is he isn't going to have to worry about november.

She will stop at nothing, no matter how racist, dishonest, or manipulative. It is all about her thinking she's entitled to this office.

If Obama thinks that trying to shut Michigan and Florida out of the picture completely is not going to come back and haunt him, then he is as delusional as his minister. He can't win the General Election without these folks, not to mention a few other big states that he's lost. And this ain't basketball, Barack. The 25 second shot clock is up. You can't hold the ball forever you know.

She's going down in flames I tellz ya…

a re-vote in Michigan and a seating of the Florida delegation are probably the only way that Hillary has a chance to take the delegate lead.

So, it is understandable that she would be pushing for the re-votes. I wish her well in these efforts.

BTW – considering that Florida cannot get their act together to do a re-vote and all the election problems that they had in the past, does this mean that they are "election challenged"?

Hillary is really shameless. The current re-vote proposal is obviously biased for Hillary in it's current set-up. So now she is trying to force Obama to accept the rigged set-up or look like he is scared to run against her.

The current plan is to not allow voters who cast a ballot in the GOP Michigan primary to revote knowing that large numbers of non-Hillary supporters and independents decided to cast their vote in the Republican primary because A]Their candidate wasn't on the Dem ballot and B]They wanted their vote to be counted and the Dem's were supposedly disqualified. Many have said that if the Dems weren't disqualified and all were on the ballot they would have never voted in the GOP Primary.

She's already gaining with the fact that the State colleges will be out for summer break, and all of the old timer "Snowbirds" will be back in Mi from Florida.

So she's trying to pull a fast one here, and then will champion it as a big momentum win if she pulled out a rigged win. And if there isn't a vote she will frame it like Obama was blocking a re-vote.

She is desperate and dangerous right now. Even if she doesn't get a re-vote, she's giving John McCain more ammo come the General Election. That could be her plan as well, if she can't win, she'd rather McCain win so she could run again in four years.

Come on up Hillary, we would love to have you be our next president; and I wouldn't miss giving you my vote for the Democratic nomination.

This is not rocket science, the rules were VERY clear. This is the Clinton machine attempting to strong-arm the system to their own favor. They know they will not win within the rules, so they are desperately trying anything they can grasp.

This is not rocket science, the rules were VERY clear. This is the Clinton machine attempting to strong-arm the system to their own favor. They know they will not win within the rules, so they are desperately trying anything the can grasp.

Dnc rules shouldn't matter anyway. Is the Constitution that really matter. Obama should be practice what he preaches. But he does not.
After all all states should count, every vote should be count. It's a constitutional right.

Hillary, no matter how hard you try, the outcome is not up to you. It is up to the voters of Michigan and the state's Democratic comittee. Your presence is trully unnecessary. We understand what is going on. We don't need you to come here and tell us that we are "disenfranchised" voters, because we understand the circumstances, which is between us and Jennifer Granholm. She is at fault for moving the Michigan primary forward and breaking the DNC rules, which you, Dennis Kucinich, Mike Gravel, and Christopher Dodd also broke by remaining on the original ballot. We understand that you are trying very, very hard to somehow have an influence on this outcome and turn this thing around to work in your favor, but really, it is out of your hands.

I think she is adding fuel to the fire. Their legislature has said it is a slim hope. I think we all agree WHY WASTE THE MONEY, FOR A SLIM CHANCE THE DELEGATE COUNT WILL CHANGE?

To those posting angry comments, I want you to think about just how angry you are. Then remember, that things that happened to young black men in the 50’s and 60’s fighting for equal rights, being beaten, hosed down, spit on and publically shamed. Now to those who ABSOLUTELY refuse to understand why Barack did not disown, a man who brought Christ to his life, and who he had experienced in a better light, ask yourself this.

If you are that angry over words, imagine how angry Wright must be considering he felt the PHYSICAL PAIN of racism. What gives you more right to be more angry, than Wright!

I do not agree with Wright, nor do I hate him for his comments, but I understand!

That is what Barack is trying to have you realize. He did not make those comments, but he understands where they come from!

Stop the hate, and start thinking of what you can do to solve the problem!

shameless, nothing less to say, she is gonna pump the disenfranchised card no matter what the consequences. i feel sorry for clinton followers, for while her opponent takes the race issue head on looking very presidential, she is running around stirring the pot. which of these candidates is ruining the ideal of being a democrat.

It seems everyone should do things the way Hillary wants and WHEN she wants it! This was a problem in January why the chaos now?

Besides, is she williing to pay for the re-vote? Why blame Obama? Even if he agrees then there's the pronblem of financing a new election. Let the states deal with this.

Michigan is behind our girl 100%, Obama simply wants us silenced because this doesnt benefit him

yet he wants our votes in Nov? NO WAY!

HILLARY 08′

Why won't Obama let the people vote?

What is he scared of?

Suppressing the voices in Michigan and Florida will not help him in November if he's the Nominee.

That's just not smart politics if you ask me.

If Obama doesn't agree, they should allow the previous votes and delegates to count. This 2 face obama needs to move on…

I'm sorry, they broke the rules. If we don't enforce the rules, we can cast order out the window. Split the delegates down the middle. It will allow the delegates to be seated, but will give the message that the states caused this themselves and examples must be made for future races.

Careful what you wish for Hilllary! Those are NOT Hicks who don't know who you are out there. THIS time since the vote WILL count the INFORMED people who didn't waste their time voteing for nothing will come out and you WILL Lose!

Go Ahead… I DARE YA!

Here's a Solution for America, Hillary: You go home!

Obama doesn't want the Michigan votes counted. He wants to continue to disenfranchise the state.

Isn't is obvious? Obama doesn't believe in democracy unless it's in his interest.

Ha Ha way to go Hillary!!!

This girl is SMART…let the people know who is holding up the process

What on earth is the matter with the Clintons.
There are rules and procedures in place and people that determine how the process is supposed to go on from this point. She needs to step back and let the DNC handle it. I am so sick of her bashing Senator Obama every time she opens her mouth.

Enough is enough – the American people are sick of it!

Take note Obama and Obama fans…Michigan is likely to decide this election and is now listed as a Toss-up…ignore them to your peril. And again if Michigan or Florida has an approved do-over primary or caucus before June 10…it is within the rules and considered valid. People should read the rules before claiming someone is breaking them.

Obama is a LIAR ! He lied about,

1. He said all his church talked about was Jesus, then admitted that he had been present when the Anti-American statements were made.

2. He said he rejected the statements but yet wont disown them (Maybe not a spoken but livin a lie)

3. He lied when he said his campaign is made up of $25, $50 & $100 contributors – Oh, then he remembered the $150,00 Louis Rezko gave him. But then he lied about that too because it was actually $250,000 – that we know of.

4. He lied when he said he would not require pre-conditions and meet with Dictator Leaders such as Rual Castro AND in the very next breath proceeded to YES, Outline PRECONDITIONS !

5. He lies everyday he refuses to wear a US FLAG Lapel pin even !

Bottom line is he has NO CREDABILITY TO BE PRESIDENT and he changes his story almost Daily now. America has caught on and Obama is FINISHED. HELLO MADAME PRESIDENT CLINTON !!

Amazing! Winning by any means necessary,,, unbelievable. There were rules,,,,, they both signed off on the rules. Why doesn't Hillary just chill and accept defeat. If this scenario were turned around and she was ahead in pledged delegates by only 1, she would be calling for Barack to conceded the entire nomination. She just can't accept that people 'the majority" don't want her. Imagine that!

As much as I would love to be able to show support for my candidate and have Obama win Michigan in a fair election, I don't believe it is in the best interest of our democracy. The DNC gave rules to follow, whether they are fair or not, and Michigan knew what it was getting into when it moved it's Primary up. And so did the candidates! HRC and Obama both agreed to strip our state of our delegates. Now we should be following the consequences put forth. End of story.

Watch Michigan go to a Republican in the general election.

once a cheat, always a cheat. It's too bad that I have to work, otherwise, I would be in her face for being such a two-faced liar.

This lady is truly a monster….Michigan BROKE THE RULES and were aware of that…Now we'r hearing words of "private talk" and "private funded"…..Lady you TRULY will do anything to win and you have no scruples!

Here she goes throwing her weight around. This is exactly why I changed my mind and voted for Obama. She is so darn pushy in everything. Sometimes you have to know when to hold 'em and know when to fold 'em.

Obama 08

Just step aside Hillary. Face reality, look at the numbers even with Michigan included, your chances of stealing this nomination by pandering to superdelegates are slim to none. Hasn't the party been through enough crap? Let's get behind Obama and focus on defeating bomb bomb bomb Iran McCain for the good of all mankind.

Wow, taking time away from Pennsylvania to go to Michigan. It's not gonna work. If Florida decided not to do a re-vote (IT'S FLORIDA!!!!) then there's no way Michigan will.

I think we all know why Obama is afraid to let Michigan and Florida re-vote. If we just took the Michigan and Florida votes as is, Clinton would be in the lead now by 20 delegates!

HILLARY ALL THE WAY!!!
