This is a story? Although it does look a little weird to see the President chilling on his cell phone!! LOL! But George Bush has vacationed more than ran the country...so we should be used to seeing Presidents on vacation.

Get some rest President Obama!!

THis man just has no clue . If he gets the nomination I think alot of people need their heads examined. I just won't vote..His campaign is getting nasty and they are the first one's to jump on and twist the Clintons for what they say!!!! Go Hillary. She is above all this!

What rock have you been under? You are obviously very, very, uneducated to make ignorant statements like you made. The Clintons are the Sleaze bags of all time, and everyone but you knows it!

I see the ignorant's are out in full force today. News flash: Obama and his wife are already rich; they don't need your donation to vacation. And good on him for taking a few days off. I don't know what it is about this country that people think vacation is a four letter word. Looks like a beautiful spot.

Barack/Barry/whatever,

From a typical white person's perspective you define the term racist. Fortunately when the DNC gives the nomination to a typical white woman. I HOPE you don't act like the typical Black person when that happens. You see deception works for only so long. You'd never have the delegetes if the public had just known the real you, Barry.

Enjoy your vaca, homey, very Presidential I might add.

Hillary is actually making a great showing- considering millions of her votes are not being counted.

And she did this on her own merits- against all the media bias and without all the advantages given to Obama.

Obama is running on affirmative action. No one wants to risk being called a racist by offering an honest opinion of his actions and abilities. All his words and actions are presented in the best possible light. All Hillary's words and actions are twisted and presented in the worst light.

I will write in Hillary. You will be happy because you'll get McCain. The day that the American people have no choice but a man that clearly is racist and unAmerican or McCain will be a sad day for us all.

Wow...I can't believe how hateful these Clinton fanatics are. He's taking a well deserved break with his family. Hillary should probably do the same. She's looking pretty stressed out. But I guess anyone would if they were losing a presidential campaign despite using every dirty trick in the book.

You Clinton supporters are a trip. How did he pay for it? You can't be serious. US Senators earn a six figure salary. He has a wife that makes a six figure salary. I know that Clinton appeals to the less educated but most should be able to figure that out without resorting to "did he spend my $25 contribution on his trip to the US Virgin islands." Get a life.

The democrats in Florida and Michigan will not vote in the general election if their votes are not counted!

A revolt is in the works in both states. No democratic vote should be denied and it is up to the people of these states as to a revote and not Barry Obama.

If he is the democratic nominee, then he has won that title as a cheat!

All votes should be counted! You will be sorry Obama when the democrats from these states do not turn out to vote in November.

Obama, YOU will lose the Presidency and lose our chance as democrats.

Nice to see that Obama is a true faithful and family-man. We need mor emen like this guy in this nation. Any one with a family can understand that Obama is "not" selfish. He has obligations to his "little children" who certainly deserve better. You can spin all that you can; Bill and Hillary have an adult in the same home filled with adultary, lies, and scandals!!! How do you really feel about these Clintons being back in the White (tanished) House?

A well deserved rest. This is a picture of a confident leader.

I get the feeling that as President, Obama won't be paranoid and up at 3:00 am in the morning. He will be confidently sleeping like the rest of America and the free world. Enough said...

It is hard work warding off the personal attacks from a "candidate" who has virtually no chance of winning the nomination, but continues to prolong the contest out of vidictiveness and a sense of entitlement, to the detriment of the people for whom she claims to working. Give the guy a break and let him relax for a couple days. I am going to donate another 100 bucks to pick up his mojito bill.

What person in his or right mind would not think that it is fair that Barack takes a mini vacation to rest and recoup after last week's ups, downs and ups again? For the record....Hillary took her 3 days....Fri thru Sunday!!! Please give the man a break...he is a husband and a father to small children and they deserve some of his time!!!

Hillary is actually ahead.
It is not her fault that the votes in Florida and Michigan are not being counted.

Lets see if Obama would be ahead and hold a RE-VOTE.

Of course no candidate can catch up if the votes in their favor are tossed out and not counted.

Lets not count a few million of Obama's votes and see how far behind he would be.

Obama seems to be doing a good job teaching his supporters to hate. It doesn't matter if Obama wins the primary, he will be out this fall. I use to like him but the media has turned me against him plus the hate and lies that his supporters are spewing.against Hillary. I know some of you think you have found your God, I'm afraid you are worshiping a false God in Obama. . I still have faith that Americans will see the light . One thing about it if Obama gets the nomination he sure can't say he won it fairly. Ask people in Fl. and Mich. Obama is scared of them now–Wait until November.

Helen, you're too slow. The Virgin Islands already had their primary. Obama won it 90%-8%. The governor is a super delegate and Puerto Rico is right next door. Their primary is sometime in June, I think.

I understand it was the Republican controlled Legislature in Florida that decided on the date selected for the primary, if that is true(and I would love to hear more on this) then the Republican party sabotaged the democratic primary, not the DNC. Who set the date in Michigan? Don't you think this changes what is going on?

The funny thing is while he's resting himself, you Obama hating LOSERS are on here having no life but spending countless hours blogging on CNN. Hillary can't do the same b/c she's busying searching for bad Obama pictures on the internet to come up with or some sort of weird Videos!

Hillary supportors can't do math or project into the feature.
Their strong holds
1. Hate anyting having to do with Obama
2. Play the Rev. Wright video over and over and pist off and come blog on CNN
3. Get pist off when Monica's blue dressed is mentioned

Ask them what the delegate count is or what are the upcoming primaries/caucuses, or what are the polls in the remaining state, they wont know!
