GO GOVERNOR ED RANDELL! Casey was defeated by Randell big time before so who cares???? He is one of the roster of traitors like Kerry, Kennedy & Richardson! Sore loosers!

PA is already a HILLARY country, Obama, you are just wasting your time & effort! Focus on small Republican states! Never on big blue states!

GO HILLARY, the fighter, winner of big blue states & winner of this election!

No one has mentioned that the reason why Rendell is behind Sen. Clinton is the he owes her big. When he ran for the governor position, he received funding from, “Hsu” under Sen. Clinton’s help. Now he has to pay Clinton back for the hookup. Go check for yourselves.

Hillary has been a good candidate for president. Unfortunately for her, Barack Obama is not only a better one but our chance for a country that is truly by and for the people. It is time, Hillary. Go graciously.

It is time for all Democrats that we get behind our candidate. I say after the North Carolina and Indiana primaries that if Obama has and 100+ lead the Superdelagates should end this.

AT 3AM I would rather have some one who will wait 20 years for his pastor to retire for telling the truth to justify staying put to answer the phone. I wonder how many 3AM calls Obama would miss in the time being.

Hilary wants 800 super delegates a mere 0.0004% of the eligible American voters to chose her as a presidential candidate against the American voters democratic will. How democratic is that?

I am afraid if this goes on much longer that the democratic party is going to be destroyed over the Clinton's being willing to do anything to get into power. When you have millionaire's threatening over the Super delegates this is getting bad.

Finally people realized Hillary has more PA's backings due to her coattailing the name Clinton! I am also very afraid if it is she who should pick up the phone at 3 am sleep-deprived and misspoke.

he is probably trying to get at Gov. Rendell. Stupid step if you ask me.

Good for Senator Casey! He is just one more example of a good man coming out and showing support to say to the public that Senator Obama does not share the radical views of his ex pastor and is serious about bringing people of all walks of life, religions, etc into the political process. I'm certain Senator Obama is proud to have his endorsement.

This contest can be OVER if the PA. voters and more PA. superdelagates will vote and support Obama. PA. voters know that republicans are cross voting and keeping Clinton in the race. Which is keeping her hopes alive.

Now it is time for Clintons and their supporters to attack Mr. Casy, becasue he chose Obama over them. In their world, America mean Clintons and Clintons mean America and so whoever chooses any other path is Judas.

I too, was made aware of the California lawsuit against Hillary and I'm wondering what effect it will have on her campaign. It's set for trial in April, so we should see a different look on her face once the media gets it's teeth in to it.

This endorsement will have no impact on the primary. Obama doesn't appeal to Penn. Democrats. Casey endorsing Obama after losing to Rendell just looks like sour grapes, and one last chance to thumb his nose at Rendell. Nobody is going to take it seriously.

... and the gap begins to close. I predict Hillary will win PA by no more than 7 points. In fact, I bet Obama nets more delegate out of NC than Hillary will from PA.

And don't tell Bill and Hillary to go home. If Obama can ever become president. Then the U.S will become so crippled and so messed up just like Iraq. If anyone should go home it should be Obama. He should step down so America can be made great again. We don't need him to wreck it further.

In reviewing Obama's performance, the feelings is only word, copy other people's word, and closed eyes to make false statements to personal attack... I am wondering this is the American moral, and the president of USA for the behavior should be like that?

By: Scott

Scott — Fri, 28 Mar 2008 13:37:37 +0000

Why does the Democratic party schedule primaries into the Summer if these states are not allowed to have their input into the party nominee decision. Let everyone have their say!

If Barack Obama is the presumptive nominee shouldn't he be clearly winning all states. He just lost two pretty big ones and he's about to lose one more really big one.

Remember when Huckabee (just before dropping out) was still taking 25-30% of the vote in republican primaries from McCain... people questioned McCain. If McCain is the presumptive nominee why is he losing 25-30% of the state to another candidate?

Okay. So why is Obama losing entire states (swing states!) to his opponent? Maybe because the voters are deciding this race – not the media.

If we let the media decide this race as they are trying with their continued Hillary-bashing, then we are not ourselves justice. The media wants Obama in the race because he's different, something new, a good story. But he wouldn't be a good President.

Unfortunately for Dems, he'll never make it that far. He may be leading in the general polls now, but once the GOP gets a hold of him it'll be President McCain. Rezko, Wright, zero experience... Hillary is being nice on these issues! Wait until the real opponent gets a chance to sound off!

Obama would lose Ohio and Florida, which would all but seal the GOP win. He might even lose PA.

The Dem party leaders should recognize Obama's vulnerability with these key character issues versus the GOP. And they should recognize his inability to carry the (big) swing states versus McCain.
