I must agree with Missouri Rep. Emanuel Cleaver about this point. I have been an extremely faithful republican to this point...but...I like what I am seeing in Obama. Hillary on the other hand seems to have a pattern of negative energy following her...we've had enough of that sort of thing lately...we need someone to bring us back up, globally.

no arizona what america deserve is the dumbest leader in the world who fooled 75% of you into upport 4 attacking iraq. and dude usa borrows from bank china ceo's ship jobs to china, and dumb war will end up costing over 2 trillion$ who will pay that ur kids, the empire crumbling, ceo's raking n record salaries you all focus on wrong things, must be public sch system fault.......................

the race will be between mccain and obama.

why?

both of their birthdays add up to the master number '11' and both were born below the 33rd parallel. no u.s. president in history has been born under the 33rd parallel. the 2008 election is more important than you know, and on dec. 21, 2012 we will see why.

To everyone, Please! Please! educate yourself regarding the issues before placing a blog. Criminal offense if you don't agree to Health Insurance proposed by HC??? Educate yourself regarding foreign policy, educational system in this country, War in IraQ; Healthcare Crisis in this country(talk to someone who works in the medical field); and most of all The Economy. These issues are not as simple as you want to think they are. It will require someone who has an understanding based on experience.

I hope Obama can go all the way, he has inspired a whole new generation of voters. Unfortunately some young voters are switching off because of the negativity fom the Hillary camp.

I hope blue-collar America will not jettison change because of Hillary's fear and shock tactics, which is so right-wing, it inevitably weakens the Democrats and strengthens the Republicans.

The Democratic party should rightly be concerned about Hillary's mehods, which is bound to get more desperate and would leave the party fragmented at the Denver convention.

First, this is a free country and we as Americans are entitled to our opinions but when we say that we as Democrats will vote for McCain if Hillary doesn't get the nom then I do see racism rearing it's ugly head. What I hear between the lines are : anyone as long as they are not black. You'll vote for someone who is a warmonger and is an extension of the current administration. Think long and hard the next time you get groceries or fill up your gas tanks or the next time you get sick and realize you can't afford to get sick!!

Idle threats are never good and they can only come back to bite us all where it hurts and that is in our "pocket books!" You can vote for whom you like but think long and hard about your rash actions!! Because I'm sure Senator Obama and his family will be just fine weather they win in November or not but what about the rest of Americans!

Come on, an join the Obama campaign. Your more than welcome to sit and congregate.

TO: kenny cole you had a dream you could spell inauguration

Finally - a Hillary supporter no longer in denial!

Really! This race is not over. You are asking H.R. Clinton to step down when this race has not run its course. I think she still has a good chance to win the democratic race. I am thinking rhR
I'm also pretty sure that I will not vote or vote for McCain, I think there are alot of conserveative democrates that feel the same. Far Left attatudes will not help put this country as the far right made this mess.

I agree with Deana Clinton should go indenpendent she would have my vote and alot of others OBama supporters are in a trance and can't see the real Obama

"Traitor superdelegates," Kathy? What, do you think Hillary is owed a turn as president? Most of her supporters are only voting for her because they hope Bill will pull her strings like Cheney pulls Bush's. Obama is a once-in-a-lifetime leader, whereas Clinton is just more of the same. If Hillary wins the presidency (which she won't, she's behind by too much), she will be the fourth straight president to be either a Bush or a Clinton. The U.S. is turning into a monarchy.

No more 3rd term for repubs.

Obama / Clinton

If Obama wins this I and my whole faimly are outa here abd heading for CANADA i WILL not SURPOT OBAMA

She doesn't need enemies with "supporters" like this. It's a mans world.....such a shame.

Music to my ears, rainbow to my eyes! ; )

I suppose all the Hillary supporters should drop the hallucinogens and face the facts.

Obama 08

I have been trying to come up with a single word that describes both Hillary and Bill and now I finally have it: SMELLY

How nice of you CNN to always print such lovely positive stories about Hillary. Keep up the good work.

I can't believe all the Hillary supporters are saying they will vote McCain if Obama gets the nomination. It is ridiculous that people are voting out of spite... this is not what the country needs!

I hope they all wise up once Hillary steps down and ENDORSES Obama and tells all her supporters to DO THE SAME... because that is exactly what she will do!

14 states.... get your count right... I believe it was 11... And she won the biggest ones there Texas and Ohio. Why should she quit now? The Democrats will not fragment from this, and will be stronger than ever in the fall.

AND TO YOU CHERYL

OBAMA HAS A LOT OF PEOPLE CAMPAINGNING FOR HIM ALSO, THATS HOW MIS INFORMED YOU PEOPLE ARE BECAUSE THE NEWS NETWORK DO NOT COVER THESE OTHER FOLKS, THEY INSTEAD TARGET HILLARY,
MIS INFORMATION WITHOUT REPRESENTATION AT WORK

Umm, Obama did not come up from poverty.

Obama does not need to win Pennsylvania. He just needs to get in the less than 10% margin.

i may be wrong but i thought that if a candidate received less than 15% of the total vote, then ALL of the delegates go to the winner. CONCEIVABLY hillary could take all of Penn's delegates if 86% of the voters went with Hillary. OUCH! that would so hurt the obama maniacs because that would actually put her ahead of Obama in delegate votes. OUCH AGAIN!

Google Frank Giustra, another huge Clinton mess sure to be dug up before November. Start looking at Clinton's past, she and her husband are as crooked as any politicians in History!

Chris

You are correct

HRC needs to win PA by at least 10% - and I think she will get closer to 15% then 10% but I agree – a single digit win for HRC is a moral and math win for BO

A win he will not get with the Trinity Church in Chicago showing all of us here in Chicago and soon across the nation that REV WRIGHT is still in Charge - and the speech and promise to leave are just words

Obama fans say they will NOT vote for Hillary if she wins the nom. Hillary supporters say they will vote for McCain if Obama wins.
I am a Hillary supporter. I will write her in on the ballot. I would never vote for Obama. McCain might make an okay President but I don't think I will be voting for him.

shout up all you orback supporters about hillary? hillary will be a better pres. than obrack? obrack is a fat liar? go away obrack we dont need obrack?

Well first we had a Judas, and now we have a doubting Thomas. Who will be the one to be crucified?

People just do not understand the danger this trend is giving to Obama. Bill was very right, race had come into the contest a while back.

It is very clear that this chap is playing on race as he specifically mentioned that he would vote for Obama if the race was very tight and Obama needed a tie-breaker.
No matter what, this is going to be a race issue and Obama will lose the November election badly.

I see a repeat of the 1952 elections coming up here. He will lose Florida and possibly New York.

Cleaver can as well move out of the Clinton support group as he has stabbed her in the back but know that the consequences are coming in November!

he's right, and everyone knows it

furthermore Cleaver still supports Clinton even though his state said otherwise, and did you just refer to african americans as supporting their own kind!!! Are you a democrat just wondering???

Engawyer,

About Cleaver, I am proud that he has chosen to stand by his convictions and support the Clintons after all they've done or tried to do for the African-American community, which is substantially more than what Barack has done on a Nation wide scale.

What the hell have the Clinton's done for the African American community? That is a fiction. Please name me something Bill Clinton has done for African Americans. I'll start with two things, welfare reform and federal sentencing guidelines. Your turn.

I am so with you jonathan, there is no way I'm voting for a man who has been constructed by the media with little substance. McCain, with all of his faults, is still a better bet. He doesn't align himself with racist bigots and seems to have this country as his priority – unlike the Obamas. I won't vote my party just because the media has given him the divine coverage or he's a democrat.

I'm confused, Billary said at first the one the the required delegates should win. Then she changed it to the one with the most popular votes should win. Then it was the one with the momentum should win. Then it's the superdelegates should vote with the voice of the people. If that doe not work, then forget the voice of the people and get the voice of the credentials committee be heard. If that does not work there's a group of people that can over turn the credentials committee decision to give her victory. Please Billary, do yourself, family and We the People a favor....GO HOME!!!!!!!!

If Hillary wins, there will be a Hill-Billy in the white house...
Welcome back to Dagpatch, Arkansas....

Ivan in Chicago:

The "tactics" Obama has used? What tactics were used? Changing the rules? Role of the superdelegates? I think you have the candidates mixed up.

Christi

its another case of the heart over the mind

Dylan, I agree with you the lady needs a red bull. Billary wake up!!!!!!!!

Let's get real Senator Obama is ahead in every category. According to the WSJ, since the "Super Tuesday" primaries on Feb. 5, Sen. Obama has won commitments from 64 superdelegates and Sen. Clinton has gotten nine. Sen. Obama has a total of 217 superdelegates in his camp while Sen. Clinton has 250, and her margin has been shrinking with each week.

Please stop listening to the lies about disenfranchising the voters. Go to RCP. Even with the votes counted, Senator Clinton is still behind in every category. FL and MI should not count or be split 50%. That is the only fair was to enforce the rules, while allowing the delegates to be seated. Senator Clinton is saying to let the people have their voices heard, while at the same time saying that the elected delegates can switch against the wishes of their states. So is she for the voices being heard or not?

The writing is on the wall and everyone knows it. This is silly. All of you on both sides that say you will vote for McCain need to grow up. Resorting to name calling because you cannot have your way is kindergarten. You are adults, not school kids on the play ground. How about we start acting like adults? These blogs have become the Republican playground and they enjoy pulling our strings. The Democratic Party will be united. For those who would vote for McCain, you obviously haven’t been paying attention to the record voter registrations during this primary. You will be easily replaced and won’t be misses. So please do the Democratic Party and take your self and the two friends you know that think as you do and turn off the light when you leave. The party doesn’t need you.

“True Democrat”

A new ad by Sen. Obama running in Pennsylvania falsely claims that Sen. Obama does not accept money from the oil industry. In the ad, Sen. Obama says, "I'm Barack Obama and I don't take money from oil companies or lobbyists and I won't let them block change anymore."

According to the Center for Responsive Politics, Sen. Obama has received over $160,000 from the oil and gas companies. Two major bundlers for his campaign - George Kaiser and Robert Cavnar – are oil company CEOs. Sen. Obama has accepted money from Exxon, Shell, BP, Chevron and just about every other major oil company. Just last month, Sen. Obama accepted another $8,400 from ExxonMobil, $12,370 from Chevron and $6,500 from British Petroleum

last i checked, obama can not get the necessary 2025 delegates needed to clinch the nomination. Since he is not gonna be able to do this, i would say right here and now that HE needs to drop out of the race and put all of his support behind hillary and the for the good of the party. Lets face it it is a lost cause. he can not possibly win the nomination with the numbers he has or may get in the future. DO THE MATH. Please drop out Obama for the sake of the country. I know you Obamamaniacs want to continue to throw your support behind jim jones, i mean Obama, but please dont do it hes a lost cause. Thank you and have a blessed day.

i would hate to see all of the obrack supporters ? if obrack is nomiee i will vote for john mccain? go hillary o8

Its time the party elders from both camp come out and accept the facts and unite this party. I say this because if it was Barack Obama on the other side (less delegate, less popular vote, and less states), this would have been over long ago. This race is still dragging on because of Hillary's personal ambition, not the democrats and the American people who are so desperately yearning for a change in the white house. At this point, I think Hillary is campaigning for John McCain. Her Strategy is to get McCain elected so she can come back and run again in 2012 but believe it or not, it wont work because her career would be over if her supporters realize her personal goal. The truth is, if John McCain wins in the general election, people will never forgive Hillary for that.

Chris O

any democrat that votes for a republican just because their canidiate did not make it is nothing but a pure ....IDIOT and i hope all the subprime mortagages and economy affect you badly in the next 4 republican years. If you vote for the other party out of spite,just stay home and read your communist manuals

IF ANYTHING I WOULD GO FOR McAIN...

THAT'S RIGHT... DEMOCRAT FOR LIFE... BUT I LOVE THE
CLINTONS MORE...

McAIN IF HILLARY GOES DOWN... 4 SHOOO...

TEXAS WAY BEI B...TOOO PA' LANTE..

TAKE ANOTHER LOOK AT THE POLLS CHERYL...

Well, sometimes its not about winning or losing, but standing up for what you strongly believe in. I rather have a fighter-HC than someone who preaches slogans about HOPE in the White House.

Hillary is steering the course. Fighting for democracy. Doing what is right. Not allowing herself to be dictated to by the press. She gets things done by thinking outside box, instead of following the established rules. So what if a few rules or laws get broken in the process. She's fighting for us! She won't give up without a battle. She voted to protect us by supporting the War on Terror and to fight the enemy in Iraq so we don't have to fight them here.

THANK GOD the math is not working for her. We don't need anymore BUSH-CLINTON-BUSH-CLINTONs in office.

I am just wondering how, after being caught in making up a story to (the Bosnia story) to re-affirm her commander in chief credentials, Mrs Clinton is still ahead in PA? Do people like to be duped?

I'm for Obama but will vote for Clinton if she gets the nomination: think Supreme Court! As to the Texas caucuses: at my convention, two Clinton delegates stole credentials! I think that the fault was theirs, personally, however, and not a part of the Clinton organization's game plan. Time for some cool heads.

obviously cleaver changed his alliance, for you to headline this the way you did proves lou dobbs poll, which all hillary supporters already knew, you guys are so biased and will "do or say anything" to get your annointed one nominated.

If you want a thermometer reading of hatred in this country you dont have to look too far.

1) Hillary Clinton's stubbornness to let it go for the sake of the democratic party, the sake of preparing a good fight against the republicans.
2) Her supporters who say they'll vote McCain if Obama wins.

Hi
If my prior post about Obama deflating is posted

Let me add

NO MATTER WHAT I WILL NEVER VOTE MCCAIN

HE IS A SELL OUT

AND DESPITE MY WANTING – BADLY – FOR THE OBAMA MOVEMENT TO SELF IMPLODE

HE WILL ABSOLUTELY GET MY VOTE IF HE WINS THE NOD

There is no choice people – we DEMS must vote DEM – the bottom line is the policies are needed and the two candidates agree 10x the amount they disagree - and McCain has sold out to Bush the Neo Cons the Supply Siders and the Exteme insane Chrisitian Right

The McCain of 2000 (2000) was possible –
The McCain of 2008(2008) will never ever get my vote

They're breaking ranks! The floodgates are opening!

Everybody should listen to this man, and those in Pennsylvania should vote for Obama April 22nd. Let's get this thing done so we can move on to the real contest.

FABRICATED NEWS MAKE ME SICK... OOH YEAHHH.. AN AFRICAN AMERICAN POLITICIAN GOING FOR HILLARY....WOOOW

NOW TURNING INTO AN OBAMA SUP. PLEEEASE..
IS THIS THE 4TH, FIF? HOW MANY HAVE DONE THIS?

BELIEVE, HOPE, TRANZAS TRANZAS TRANZAS
NOT IN A MILLION YEARS.

EL LOBO EN DISFRAZZ... KEEP MOVING GIRL...

Obamabots are morons.

The real tragedy here is having to observe the media and several prominent super-delegates attempt to push Senator Clinton out of the race prematurely and wondering what else is going on behind the scenes. After listening to the countless feel good speeches by Mr. Obama–ones that give absolutely no hint of a plan of operation–I fear allowing Mr. Obama into the White House. If we lose the one person who knows what's going on–Senator Clinton–we lose the only viable Democratic candidate. I, and others, will be forced to vote Republican for the first time, and I am not happy with that option.

COME ON GUYS, THIS GUY IS NOT A TRUE HILLARY SUPPORTER!!! HE PROBABLY CHANGED TO SUPPORTING OBAMA LIKE OTHER TRAITOR SUPERDELEGATES.

I tak offense to this. I am from his district. Reverend Cleaver is a die-hard Bill and Hillary Clinton Supporter. He owes a lot to the Clintons. He is not a traitor. He is the one that got Bill Clinton to donate his saxaphone he played on the Arsenio Hall show to the Jazz Musuem in Kansas City. He knows who his friends are and he is completely loyal to his friends.

Eric April 1st, 2008 1:35 pm ET
"Yes, Jonathan I'm witih you! We can't have Obama as president. I know several Clinton supporters who will be voting for McCain if Hillary doesn't get the nomination."

100% true. Obama is the cool guy in the school yard. No serious voter will give him the vote, just the 'looking for excitement' guys.

This is not about race as in Black in White like most of you would like to throw this crap into the Barack/Hillary argument. My problem with Obama is – he is not an original but more of a copycat. A clueless dude en route to the WH is quite scary! If he becomes the leader, he'll turn out to be a puppet of Kennedy, Kerry, etc. and the rest of his endorsers. One journalist said that even recently Barack can't find his way in Capitol Hill, more so in the WH. His candidacy is much too soon. Hillary's statement that McCain is more knowledgeable and electable than Barack is quite true. It is not to underestimate her opponent, she just feels that Barack needs more honing politically.

Dosen't sound like a Hillary supporter to me. And guess what? The election will decide who is the next President; not "supporters" like him. Obama is not a foregone conclusion folks – no matter what the "news" media spin or this "supporter" thinks.

So long as the press continues its lopsided coverage and Obama's supporters continue to not be critical of their own candidate for the sake of OUR country, consent will be manufactured. Obama is is a lifelong politician and lawyer who is as disingenuous as as they come. He is NOT a unifier. He barely has half of his own parties support. He is a savvy, univestigated, eloquent speaker who has commercialized his appeal to a nation of hungry consumers. What about Rezco? He's on trial...no coverage! Obama got a sweetheart, stinky land deal...no coverage! Wright spews racist rhetoric... it was a difference of expression. If a white preacher spoke about blacks that way...Congressional hearing.

Well Well, I don't know about making a sure statement that Obama will win. Listen, everyone and their mama thought the Patriots were going to win the Superbowl...New yorkers supported their New York Giants even though they didn't expect them to win and the media had basically shut out any potential for the Giants to win. But, look what happened okay! Look what happened the last mins of the game, the unforseeable happened!! So just be careful to declare Obama the winner when we haven't even finished the first quarter of the race!!! Don't count Clinton out just yet because every time the media does the unforseeable happens. So Obama better still be looking over his back because Hillary is right there. If the media was a bit fair we would be seeing different headlines.

To the comment above about "Clintonians" voting for McCain. You say we all will. The answer is no we won't. I will vote for my party before I vote for McCain.

He better vote for Obama. His district did. Superdelegates are a sham.

Calling traitors anybody who give an honest answer or the superdelegates who switch side is ridiculous and just plain stupid.

The ones who should be called that way are the supporters from both camps who claim they will vote republicans if the nominee of their choice is not chosen.

The war, the economy, healthcare... C'mon people. Do you remember that those issues will be better attended by any of the two democratic nominees? Are you ready to sacrifice what the next election is really about just because you got some personal grievance issues or because you are just a sore looser?

Are YOU a Dem or are YOU a traitor?

Please everyone stop the hate among the party! Some of these comments I'm reading are ridiculous! Remember this is a Primary, and we need to stick together to get a democrat in the White house in 09. We have to come together folks... Let us not spew hate over another democratic candidate. Clinton supporters remember what the Republicans put the Clintons through, It would be great to see the looks on their faces when there is a DEMOCRATIC President next year. Lets keep our eys on the prize guys lets go!!

benadict aronld

Obviously everyone has every right to vote for whoever they please, but the Democrats would do well to have more people willing to compromise like Cleaver. The Republicans swallowed their pride and nominated McCain, despite being despised by the conservative talking heads. If the Democrats want to win in November, they better find the same sense of unity.

On a side note, I've noticed quite a few Clinton supporters here have written there messages all in caps. Please don't do this. If there's one way to guarantee no one will read your post it's by typing in all capital letters. It's glaring to read and comes off as if you're shouting every word. Message board etiquette, people.

i didnt know obama has bloggers on his pay roll. you guys sound like sales people rather than true supports. shame on you obama

We need to get the guy a hat that says Yes We Can.

This is truly good to hear did he say if Hillary was going to show us her tax return? In all line of business the income data and tax return will show us where they get the money.

Honesty and being Tuthfulness is two keys to Obama's success.

At last a person who can back her and still speak the truth. Never thought I'd live to see it. Carville, Davis and that Niki somebody or other would do well to learn something from this man.

speaking for myself as a middle-aged white guy, I could see myself voting for either McCain or Obama. A little revolution, once in a while, is a good thing. And the Clinton Machine needs to be overthrown. once and for all.

Hillarious!!!!!!!!!!

LOL! There is NO way BO will win...Clinton supporters will vote for McCain before we allow this racist to become our next President. Sorry Michelle, you will NOT live at the White House!

"Jonathan" and all you other "Democrats" for McCain - you're just proving to everyone that you don't give a stitch about real issues - health care, energy, the housing crisis, the economy, the WAR IN IRAQ, getting lobbyists out of Washington, etc etc. You're voting "Clintonian" as if you were loyally (and mindlessly) displaying unwavering support for a sports team. THIS ELECTION IS FAR MORE IMPORTANT THAN THAT. Unless what you're wiling to admit that Hillary and mcCain really do stand for pretty much the same kind of politics (an argument I could agree with) as justification for your McCain vote, you're just being anti-Obama out of sore loser spite. Grow up and think of what's best for the country.

To Sen. Clinton. You go girl. If Obama wins the nomination, I , a hard nosed democrat all my life, will vote for Sen. McCain

by the way.........................Mcsame has no plans to bail out our economy,no plans to help the mortagage crisis...............mmmmm
Seriously ,people would rather endure the same negatives that this country is going through , than to vote for someone that will unite us and put America back in good standing around the world ......take a good deep look at yourselves...any of you that voted for Bush or voted to send this country to war...................wake up America .
OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT....................08

April Fools!

Hello people its the Information Age. You whisper in China and within 30 minutes people will be shouting it in Washington. What a misstep.

I feel sooo sorry for Ken in RI. That is the saddest statement I've ever seen. You sound like you need to see someone regarding all that hatred you hold inside. You should really look into healing yourself. Look at what you would rather happen to the soldiers that are in this horrible war. That to me is just plain SICK!!! And before you go around spreading so much hatred, learn how to spell and write first.

And for all those Hillary supporters, who will vote for McCain, I hope you will remember that when you lose your jobs, home, pensions, etc....

This is why this country will never get any better.

OBAMA 08!!!!!

this supporter should not voice his opinion until the race is over for the nomination, maybe he will keep his mouth shut like most of the people who do not like Hillary. Hillary is a winner and they are afraid she might win,,,,,,,,,,hhhahah,. you will see.......hhhahaha...

Amazing to read all the words of these people who are run by fear of this or failure of that. How did they ever make it as far as they have so ridden down with fear. Hillary Clinton's record as Senator of New York is clear and on the web. Obama's is also on the web. She has worked hard over this 9 years to support a strong economy and to support every aspect of that economy. She has also worked in many other areas that should be of concern to every American. While Senator Obama has good ideas they have not been put into action and tested. So it is with the real stuff of what it will take to run the country that Hillary will bring this country into a new birthing and a well needed one. As far as fear goes it feeds the media. They feed fear to the populace and the fear runs the people so that the people need to be fed hope by a politician. Hope is an internal process so get it we need an effective president and with that hard work we can all have hope. No religion just hard work. Your spiritual life is where your hope is seeded. If everyone gave more intent to their own personal hope fear would have no foothold.

typical... backstabbers are abound. i wonder if it looked good for hillary,would they all jump ship again. need to stick your finger in the air to see which way the wind is blowing...

I will vote for McCain if Obama is the nominee.

Let me remind all of the people that spew venom and say all of these wicked things about the Clintons of a story in my Holy Bible about David slaying Goliath! Go ahead and be nasty if you like to. That's up to you. I'll keep doing the right thing and keep the FAITH! Go Hillary 2008! Also, for those of you who don't know anything about the Holy Bible then I will give you another example you may be familiar with. Remember a couple of months ago when there was no way that the 18-0 New England Patriots could possibly lose to the New York Giants in the Super Bowl? Enough said. Obama people go ahead and keep up your arrogancy and nasty columns. God have mercy on the blind!

Nathan,

You are complaining because there are Super Delegates that are voting for Obama even though their state vote for Clinton? Isn't one of Hillary's main points that Super Delegates can vote for whom they want? Please clarify your statement. . .

Texas states:

To all of the so called Clinton supporters who say if Obama wins they will vote for McCain. That's fine….go ahead. Your gas bills are high as heck, the economy stinks, mortgages are in the crapper….I could go on and on

Just a reminder Texas, this all happened not only under Bush but also under a democratically controlled do-nothing Congress, there is enough blame for both parties to share!. The major issue is who is working for the people? What a disappointment!

obama would never get my vote i will stay home before i vote for him

hilary 08

Cleaver's congressional district, the 5th here in Missouri, voted in favor of Obama 53/47.

Supporting Clinton is NOT like supporting the losing home team. Your home team – YOUR CONSTITUENTS – voted for Obama.

Cleaver, your constituents are who you REPRESENT – as suggested by your title. You are Missouri's 5th Congressional District's REPRESENTATIVE.

But you have chosen to represent only your interests. "Loyalty trumps everything," you said to Jesse Jackson. And apparently that means your constituents too.

You have likened giving up your support for Clinton like giving up a seat to a stranger. We are not strangers to you. We voted you into your office ... and at a narrower margin than Obama beat Clinton.

I will NOT be voting for you in your re-election bid this November.

WHOOP DEE DOO !!!!

PLEASE don't accuse him of jumping on the band wagon just because he's black....

He's just being straight up..

Obama for President of the United States of America!!!!!

Sounds like a Hillary supporter that is actually in touch with reality.

Hillary Supporters,

Look at the number of Senators who are falling in line for Obama. These Senators have known Hillary longer than Barack – wouldn't it make more sense if they were falling in line for Hillary? Doesn't it make you wonder, if these people work directly with Senator Clinton, why are they choosing Senator Obama? They should know something we don't know...

Clinton will win. We believe America is seeing 'the real' Obama. He is 'too star struck'. This is not what being a president is about. First for Obama, not now. All our family is for Clinton. GO HILLARY!!

Hillary should listern to Cleaver–and go home to Bill. So much of the country is simply tired of her complaining, whining, accusing, and lying (oops, lapse of memory). We're just tired of her. Obama sheds new light on America, a new hope for tomorrow. We don't need "another Clinton to clean up after a Bush". Obama 08.

Cleaver, like most Americans, can easily read the writing on the wall. The only folks who don't seem able to, or willing to, are the members of the Clinton camp. I will be stunned as well if Obama doesn't win the nomination. Conversely I will not be stunned if Clinton tries to do as much damage to Obama as possible. She would rather McCain beat Obama in November... it would make her 2012 bid for the White House that much easier.

Obama might win the Democratic nomination, but I doubt he will be the next president.

This man is not relevant at all. He wants to have the best of the two worlds. He still refers to himself as Clinton supporter but will vote for Obama in the convention. He is a hypocrite and he is doing that for his own good to be relected of course. He can not have the best of the same world.

Sounds like an endorsment to me!

Cleaver is an example for what some other Clinton supporters are afraid to give voice to: he dares to observe that the emperor (or in this case, the empress) has no clothes...and no possibility of winning the nomination over Obama.

that's an opinion and will stay as it

Would a real Democrat (even those that support Hillary) really do the unthinkable and vote for McCain.
I don't people who think like that are really Democrats they are nothing more than Dixiecrats......we can all read between the lines.
A real Democrat would NEVER vote for another 8 years of this!
Are you guys crazy!

Just remember this. When you vote for McCain instead of Obama, or Clinton get ready to take it in the shorts. You will feel it in your pocket book and in your everyday lives. The war in Iraq will go on and on and on and on. If want a combination of Bush and Regan in the White House then vote McCain. Just don't come back on here in 2 years and complain about the condition of our country or the war in Iraq or even a new one.

OBAMA CAN CHEAT AND WIN THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINATION BY SUPPRESSING THE VOTES FROM FLORIDA AND MICHIGAN BUT HOW IS HE GOING TO WIN AGAINST MCCAIN......

( Obama can us some tricks from BUSH campaign in 2000)

This is better than winning the super bowl and going to Disney

It is obvious this guy is (and was ) not a real supporter of Hillary.

He wanted Obama to win from the start.
but he also thought that Hillary (clintons) is/are going to win, one way or another.

When I read all the comments here, I think that this country doesn't have a chance as long as we are calling each other names. How old is the average voter? If we act like five-year-olds in the sand box, we will never make any progress in this country. Vote for whom you want to, don't try to defeat someone else by trickery or name-calling. Start acting like adults, voters. Look up the candidates positions on the issues and vote accordingly.

It is time for the Clintons to go, period.

Cheryl, don't forget that Hillary's campaign is in the red and Obama has raised more money than her. THOSE are some of the reasons she is being outspent!

Imagine that. Another black supporter breaks ranks. Knock me over with a feather. I'll be extremely suprised if Obama is our next president. There are too many Clinton supporters like me who will be voting for McCain if Obama is our nominee.

Dean:
"I keep seeing the same people responding to these blogs – and always the same rhetoric regardless of what story they are responding to. I wonder if any of them are part of one of the three candidate's campaigns?

Wierd…"

I'm inclined to agree. I believe that there are some staff, paid or unpaid, responsible for pushing out campaign talking points on blogs, message boards, etc.

Oh boy you didn't have to be Einstein to figure out why he went to Obama. LOL

Dear Clinton supports,

You lost, get over it.

The next President will likely appoint two supreme court justices. Do you want a Republican making those nominations?

You might want to reconsider Obama before jumping on the McCain band wagon because your favorate lost.

This is just commen sense, and it's needed right now. Nothing against Hillary except this is what she gets, she ran a horrible campaign and clearly has been beat. She has not showed anything to me but how sore of a loser she is. I've said this over and over ...a measure of a man is not in how well he wins but in how gracious he loses.

I know Hillary is a woman but I wouldn't want my children to grow up and be like Hillary. She has been very disappointing as a human being. No one should feel comfortable lying to people who you want to vote for you. She would say anything and that is weakness. It takes a real person to be able to say they were wrong and to take a loss, she can't do either.

All candiates for America

somehtings to ponder.......there will be some clinton supporters who feel that she has been treated unfairly by the press and some democrats and will vote for mccain. also in a matchup with mccain obama will lose the white male vote, the hispanic vote, the white "soccer moms" and will win the black vote and any young people who bother to vote, mccain in a landslide. in a clinton – mccain matchup mccain will win the white male vote, lose the women vote, lose the hispanic vote, and if any blacks still vote she will carry them, oh and those young voters will vote for her. she can beat mccain in a close vote.

"If you are a Hillary supporter and vote for McCain because you don't like Obama, you just chose to send our soldiers to die in Iraq over petty dislikes. You might as well be charged with 1st degree murder.
-Jared"

YES!! Exactly!! When will the "I'll vote for McCain if Hillary loses" IDIOTS wake up and realize this. My friend, you are a genius.

What I don't understand is how could any democrat vote for McCain? I voted for Obama in the Primary, but if for some reason he doesn't win the nomination, I will vote for Clinton. I will not put McCain in office. Obama has flaws as does Clinton, but they will surround themselves with the right people to get the job done. I'm not only voting because of my interests, I'm voting for my kids interests. We cannot have four more years of Bush policy. Any real democrat will vote for our nominee, whether it's Obama or Clinton!

A realistic approach indeed. Too bad the Clintonites can't grasp the inevitable truth.

Mr. Cleaver, you're a honorable person. I'd wish your canidate had such a clear focus. Then, do the stately thing FOR YOUR SO CALLED PARTY.

...AND ALL OF YOU BILLARY SUPPORTERS think of this, who do YOU want picking supreme court judges for (PRO LIFE) the next term? "McCain"

If the answer is Yes, remember... "The last laugh, laughs best!"

Obama 08 & 12

Oh please, Obama has so many ideas compressed in his brain, he can't think straight. Furthermore, I will take Obama any day over someone talking loud just to become president and has nothing to offer the people (Bush).

Obama "08"

Anyone and I mean anyone " uNCLES sAM " ,needs to have their head examined if they would be silly enough to vote for Mcsame ,I guess the people that would vote for Mcsame enjoy having our soldiers killed ,paying a lot more for food and likes to spend all of that extra money you earn buying super high priced gasoline .......well vote for Mcsame and watch your home be pulled out from under you....and that's the reality of that......

Nothing like "jumping the gun!" Can't you wait til
all the votes are counted???
Doesn't sound like you're a very loyal backer there!
Some "friends" make better enemies.

Cheryl is such an idiot. Again she has proven she has no clue. Clinton may win Pennsylvania, and maybe Indiana, but she will still LOSE THE NOMINATION!!!!!

There is plenty of agreement that this race must run its due course. That said, I am confident that a final decision will be made before the convention in August. I aslo feel confident that the voice of the people will be heard and that Barack Obama will be the Democratic candidate and the next President of the United States.

God Bless the United States of America!

This guy might as well join Obama's campaign. How can you be a Clinton supporter but say Obama will win, etc??!!??? It's disappointing...

I am sure I am speaking for many other Clinton supporters in saying, "SHAME ON YOU, REP. CLEAVER".

I suggest looking in the dictionary to find out what the meaing of the word SUPPORT is!!!!!!!!!!!

heart and loyalty says Clinton

Mind says Obama

Hillary Clinton's support divided will not stand.

Loyalty or being bullied

it will be over in 21 days

Obama 08

Hillary is noting more than a fraud...she exaggerates her experience Just like Micheal Brown did for FEMA....Hopefully the next time she's ducking sniper fire its the super delegates wizzing by her head going to OBAMA.

GO OBAMA!!!

Obama is not experienced ,if he is the nomanee this will be a failure of democratic part and they will miss agolden oppurtanity in Nov 08.

OBAMA GET OUT OF THE RACE.

And now Obama is lying in another ad about no oil money-NOT TRUE, says factchecker.com. "No lobbyist money" also not true. So all you people you supposedly hate Hillary for lying, better get off the Obama bandwagon too. He's a smooth talker, but a liar.

To all the hilary supporter if you vote for mccain in the fall you were never a Democrat to Begin with! All we Obama supporter have to say is Good Bye Haters!!!!!!!!!!!!! HA HA HA AH

All you Hillary supporters are not true democrats if you think the best solution besides Hillary is crazy, old, war-hungry McCain. Being that this nation is falling from grace in a speeding manner and you dont want to fix it because your "Sniper-shooting" Hillary will not win is unpatriotic!

You all deserve to have your homes foreclosed.

Obama 08!!!!!

"It' s unffair for the rest of the states not to cast for many candidates as they desire instead of just 2 people.To drop out when other states have not voted is unamerican."

There's nothing unfair about the primaries. Voters can write-in any name they want. Anything could happen between now and the convention. Why are Obama supporters so anxious. If you're really confident of victory, then lighten up. You all sound frantic.

Obama is ahead and more than likely unless something very dramatic happens between now and the convention he will be the nominee but he will never be elected president. The Republicans will tear him apart and rightfully so for staying committed to Rev Wright and his sick,racist,anit-american rhetoric. I at one time considered voting for Obama when I felt that Hillary even though I know the smarter of the two was not going to be able to pull it off. But after these recent revelations of the kind of spirtual leader Obama puts his faith in I would vote for anyone but him. If by some freak chance Obama is elected it will be the beginning of the worst race wars we have ever seen in this country and I believe will eventually lead to the collapse of American life as we know it today. God Help America if He is elected!!!

People like this have no integrity. He's voting for race instead of ability. I hope people will remember him when Hillary wins. Disgusting.

You Obama supporters just don't get it. Hillary is not perfect but Obama is not what he claims to be. We just DON'T like, believe or trust him! I am a Democrat and I will NEVER vote for him. McCain would be better for the US. Obama may get the nomination but he WON'T win the general election. You Obama supporters can start crying in your spiked Kool-Aid right now!

Ken in RI –

don't you have a conscience? you would rather destroy this country out of spite than have Obama win? what is wrong with you?

anybody but McCain in '08

With friends like this..... typical back handed supporter of BHO

I think Rep. Cleaver is right. But, there's still a chance we might be
wrong. Let's see what PA tells us.

I don't expect the Chiefs to beat the Colts either! Obama all the way, our next President!

Ken in RI:

You're so intelligent, great mindset…… "Trole."

Clinton supporter's… oh nevermind, whats the use. Keep on believing her lies.

Ken in RI:

You're so intelligent, great mindset...... Troll.

Clinton supporter's... oh nevermind, whats the use. Keep on believing her lies.

Hillary
superdelegates go against the people

I AGREE OBAMA WILL NEVER BE PRESIDENT.

Any politician who is willing to be honest like this has my respect.

The reason Hillary supporters will not vote for Obama has nothing to do with their similar positions. It has everything to do with not putting a sham and a fraud in the White House whose ineptitude in there will cost us the Senate and the House in two years. The Hillary haters love to talk of her lies, but you excuse every untruth that comes out of your candidate's mouth. What about the story today of the "old political machine" that put Obama in the US Senate? What about the lies about the Kennedy family? What about his most recent lies about his relationship with Wright–that had Wright not been about to retire and had he not apologized for his offensive remarks, Obama would have felt uncomfortable remaining with the church. How could the media have missed THAT apology? Was the reverend "about to retire" for 20 years? It's not about what Reverend Wright said...it's about all the lies and changes in stories from Obama that came after it. He made a speech on race and has not done one thing about it since using it to squirm out of a political nightmare. The people who keep excusing him are the ones who need to wake up.

come on hillary's supporters,let's endorse barack obama!!!
the game is over.

Y'know, I have no horse in this race – I'm Canadian – but I gotta say that voting for McCain "by the millions" because you can't handle your candidate losing the election is, ummm, childish? Moronic? Spiteful? Shooting yourself in the foot? Throwing the bathwater out with the baby? Pick a term, embrace it, then grow up!

Oh, and this story is priceless LOL.

Whatever. I'm still for Hillary. Second choice McCain. Never, ever for Obama. He's just the "Audacity of Hype".....nothing more.

Hillary or McCain – 2008

This is the begining of the end my friends... or at least it should be. I don't forsee Hillary having enough delegates even if Florida and Michigan are allowed to seat their delegates after NC and IN... If her own supporters who have contributed tons of money to her campaign are starting to waiver, it's all over but the crying. It would be a shame for the Democratic party if she is so self-centered that she continues the fight after the mathematical impossibility of winning is reached. If she sabbatoges Obama's chances to win against Mcain by beating the dead horse, I certainly hope that the American Public realizes that this woman cared about noone but herself and that will be her legacy.. which, by the way, should be completely seperate from the legacy of her Husband.

I remember one thing that Obama said that holds a lot of intergrity. He said that as president, he did not want to be surrounded by people that would just agree with him just because he was the president, but that he wanted to be surrounded by people who was not afraid to tell him no. A true supporter and a true friend will tell you the truth. A person that goes on letting you believe a lie is not looking out for your best interest. So this man is no a traitor, he is honest. But I also understand why Hillary is staying in, she has high hopes that Obama will fall or that she can talk the superdelagates into voting for her. But I hope she has the good judgement to know that it is not okay to win at any cost.

Hillary lied and continues to down play her part in Bosnia. Is that honestly what you want from a president? To brag about what they had done, be proven to be wrong, then dismiss their lie without a second thought?

8 years of that would be wonderful, wouldn't it?

So he wins the nomination. The left wing extremists of the Democratic Party have been taking careful aim at their own for so long they are a Three Stooges co-starring Annie Oakley movie.

The 28% that makes up the moderates say they will vote for McCain. Slice and dice the numbers anyway you like, he loses in the General Election without Hillary.

Will we do that for spite? Sure. It's always fun to watch the kids squirm when their guy loses on American Ido..

But first, we do it for patriotism. The country is more important than the party. Obama doesn't have the judgement or the character to lead. Better the devil we know.

It's a shame nobody realizes the importance of success in Iraq. The health care, gas prices, wall street, Medicare, social security, prescription drug prices are all problems that have been around for decades and consistantly getting worse. The politicians do nothing but lie and make promises they can't keep. You get rid of all of them and put some poor people in charge with good sence and this country will get turned around. I have no faith in any of them to fix any of the problems the are constantly discussed every year. Hillary or Obama can;t be trusted and McCain wont get much changed due to all the up hill battles he will face in congress. All our problems should have been fixed decades ago. Drill for more oil here and build new refineries. Jail the people stopping this from getting done. Win the war on terror and don't tuck and run. A superpower does not do that. Quit giving billions of tax apyers dollars to foreign countries for there problems and use it to fix our own. Then give a little.

I bet he'll get a three AM call from a very irate Bill, Hill, or Chelsea and pay for this remark! While he's got them on the phone, maybe he could ask about those tax returns!

haha! Happy Apr 1st!

it is just a lie today!

APRIL FROM TX. You should be proud a woman is going for president. Your just another one of those Clinton Haters.Dont put the cart before the horse O.B. supporters. It will come down to the end and the Super Deligates will vote the best for our country.It wont be O.B. He's to much of a greenhorn ,and a closed book. America dosn't know anything about him, except what he tells you.There is an old saying in this country. WHAT YOU DONT KNOW WONT HURT YOU. THINK ABOUT IT.

Cleaver obviously is a man used to talking common sense and it must be a struggle to have to repeat the mantra dictated by the Clinton campaign when he knows in honesty that she should drop out rather than carry this to the convention after she has been beaten at the polls and in terms of pledged delegates.

Response to Kevin from RI:
You are so full of ignorance it is appalling. With fools & racists like you, our great America cannot prosper. These are the kind of rhetoric one would expect out of McCain/FoxNews supporters. What a shame!

All Democrats/Independants/Republicans with a strong sense of patriotism & love for your country:
Please do not fall for these ridiculous rhetorics. Obama, just like Clinton, loves his country more than Bush & McCain. Loving your country does not mean you bombard anyone and everyone that disagree with you and run an exhorbitant deficit just to entertain yourself. Loving your country means that you bring people together for a common purpose, i.e. ensure our kids have a bright future living together.

Let all the states, (including Florida and Michigan) be heard and all the votes be counted. Is a caucusing "voting" or just part of a "Political Machine" that was rigged by frightened youngsters who see change at any cost . . .

Would not real change be to elect the first woman after 70,000 years of male dominated politics. Sexism is more pervasive than racism.

Let all the votes be counted and not repeat the disaster of 2000!

Oh . . . BTW I'm a man.

What we have seen during this campaign is the dirtiest schemes and backstabbing in any campaign run, But the foulest thing I have seen is the lack of loyalty from the supporters of the candidates. One minute they are for their candidate, next they are switching sides.
THEN, the populas has the nerve to talk about candidates " Flip flopping on issues" It goes to show you whats happening in our government, No loyalty to the people, no loyaly to our soldiers, no loyalty to America. ORDER OF THE DAY, GREED, GREED, AND MORE GREED. Someone answer me a question, If the oil companies used the 40 billion they recieved in profits and put it towards gas prices, How much do you think a gallon of gas would cost???
A smart man once asked! "HOW MUCH IS TO MUCH?" HOW MUCH IS ENOUGH? When a man makes $50,000 a year and lives comfortably, why does another man need $20,000,000 a year??? if all of the people who are multi-millionairs would share even a little bit of their money, we would not have poverty in the United States.
I guess it all falls under loyalty to ones country!!! BUT, Who has it? Am I the only one? and I am poorer then the poor! all I can do is prey for my country and prey for the people. I am a vet. I would like Richardson to go on T.V. and explain loyalty!

this is the problem with your idea! this is not a contest of poor democrats ver rich or more well off democrats this is about people coming together and building a better USA for all of us. were we can all be happy and raise are children in a safe place. your comment posted is the problem with many democrats, we have got to come together and unify in a very big way and get rid of this built up hate that all started in the fist Clinton term will bill Clinton split this country down the middle and then GW came in and only widen the chasm. Hillary is not known for building bridges she is good at burning them down.! Obama started with nothing and has came to a point were he is taken over the lead from someone whom handed it to her on a silver platter bought for by lobbyist in Washington the same people who take money from the hard working American people. yes the wal-mart democrats.

Anybody but McCain in '08.

We don't want another Bush term.

now is the time of healing Democrat 08

TO ALL THE HILLARY BACKERS THREATENING TO VOTE FOR MCCAIN:

Aren't all you people talking about voting for McCain if Hillary doesn't get the nomination just cutting off your noses to spite your faces?? If you don't like Obama, do you really think that McCain is going to be better? Listen up!! HILLARY HERSELF SAID THIS IS A BAD IDEA. I listened to her giving a stump speech in Pennsylvania over the weekend – she answered a question from the crowd. She basically repeated my first sentence, almost verbatim.

Don't be spiteful, and screw the rest of the country if Hillary doesn't win the nomination (Obama voters too, if the tables turn that way,). YOUR CANDIDATE doesn't even approve of this behavior. It's immature and selfish, and, additionally, doesn't accomplish anything except possibly four more years of Bushisms at best, and world annihilation at worst (ok – I'm being melodramatic, but McCain's foreign policy gaffes are killing me as this is supposed to be his "area")....If you love this country and you are a Democrat, please don't vote out of a petty place, but a humanitarian one, a place of thoughtfulness for the whole country...

If all these young people would do their research into what the Clintons really accomplised instead of researching all the personal and bad things that was a right wing conspiracy and very unfair. They would find that we had a budget surplus, good jobs, affordable college, and low gas prices. The Clintons cleaned it up once and they can do it again. Isn't this want everybody wants. Think about it.
The media has protrayed Hillary like she is the worst person. The people that actually know her say she is nothing like that. All candidates embellish their experience. This includes Obama. He has told several untruths and the media has let it go, but with the Clintons they let nothing go. Obama will never win the general because he has played the race card to his convience too many times.

This is always the headlines! Anything to make supporters of Clinton and FUTURE voters think their vote is wasted! This is not true and a shame that the Obama supporters, the sold out Media and the "Endorsers" have pushed this to a point of influencing the vote and the race. The fact is that it is Clinton, not Obama, that stands the best chance to win in the General Elction. It is not only about delegate counts or polls in the Democrat nomination, but state by state red/blue in a General Election. And when this is considered, and should be, as nothing will change this, she beats him in the General Election. And that is what we care about. Pennsylvania, Indiana, North Caroilna vote Hillary Clinton. And the rest of the states and Puerto Rico keep voting for Clinton. If not, another Republican in office, and that you can count on! And she is still the most qualified candidate. GO HILLARY CLINTON, all the way to the White House!

I have been reading comments from Obama supporters on the topic
"Thousands have gathered at a Chicago church to honor the Reverend Jeremiah Wright "

and many comments were against Hillary Clinton and attacking her and I don^t simply understand the connection between Hillary and reverend ...

THIS IS GOING TO BE THE FUTURE OF AMERICA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Cleaver. What a fitting name. That chopping sound you hear is Hillary's campaing being cut down... TIMMMMMBERRRRR!!

Well said MP! I'm tired of Clinton talking about FL and MI, like she didn't know their votes wouldn't count. If she was so worried she wouldn't have agreed their votes wouldn't count months ago, but another case of trying to change the rules in the middle of the game. You people in FL and MI are really falling for her crap. She NEEDS your vote now that's why she's fighting for it. CNN keep playing that video you have on file of her saying FL and MI votes wouldn't count the same way you played those Jerimiah Wright snipits. Let's be fair and balanced, right!

He's clearly in Obama's court so no big surprise. They all say that.

It is now news when a Clinton supporter doesn't dance the Hillary-spin.

CHERYL-Have you been watching how those poll numbers get closer as people meet Sen. Obama in EVERY state? He has to spend twice as much since he is running against name recognition.

AMERICA for something better: OBAMA

America ready for HILLARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Women make up a majority of Democrat party. Black is only one of minority group.
Hillary won all major primaries, and with women and Hispanic votes, Hillary should be the nominee.

If Obama gets the nomination there is no way he will win in the general election. But I really don't believe that will happen. Vote Clinton and elect a person ready to be president. We cannot trust our country to Obama.

PLEASE REPORT THE NEWS, INSTEAD OF BIASED GARBAGE!!!

OBAMA JUST WON TEXAS!

DELEGATE COUNT 99- OBAMA, 94 CLINTON

SHE DIDN'T WIN TEXAS AND YOU PEOPLE NEED TO REPORT THE TRUTH.

To: Ken in RI

No, you aren't a trool (I think you meant trole), but you are a person who cannot spell. And, by the way, tap the caps lock key for us please.

I think when someone in his position makes a comment like this it means something. Its different if Obama's supporters are counting her out or the Republicans but when her own campaign is ruling out a win for her, it means a lot.

Obama Richardson 08!!!

I am 100% for Obama, but if Hillary would win the nomination, I would be 100% behind her.

We can not let a Republican select new members of the Supreme Court!

Someone said recently that politics was a contact sport. Wait! That someone was Bill Clinton! Did he mean that for everyone or he mean his wife's campaign was free to throw the punches but no one else?

The only way Hillary can justify her inflated Resume is to claim that her husband had his mind somewhere else. Can't have it both ways, Hillary...

To hear her tell it, Hillary has even more foreign policy experience than even Queen Elizabeth!!

Finally someone out of the Clinton Camp Telling the TRUTH so rare this is! Clinton will try to make up a lie about how he was taken out of context while they we taking incoming fire? ha ha Obama 08

Hey CHERYL April 1st, 2008 1:22 pm ET,

You know what's even more funnier? Since you wrote your comment, new polls out in Pa., say that Clinton is only 5 points ahead. LOL!! Now that's funny.

Obama might not win Pa., but he'll compete. He might not win Indiana but it'll be close. Picture that, Oabam losing by 5 points or less in states that HRC has to win by large amounts. He's going to SMOKE Clinton in NC!!

It's over Cheryl, get with the winning team!!

OBAMA 2008

The democrats are deluded if they think red state voters will put a woman or an Aftican-American in the White House. John McCain became the de facto president-elect the moment he took the GOP nomination and the democrats narrowed their field of viable candidates to Clinton and Obama.

Clinton is not going to be my President!!! I will vote for McCain before I see that happen!!!!! And look now, even her own supporters are predicting against her!!!!

Go Home Clinton!! Just drop out!! It is so tacky for a husband and wife both to be President anyway!!! Just like it was tacky for a father and son to be President and you see the ruination that this country is in because of it!!

Hillary you have had your day in the sun when you were having tea parties as First Lady!! Give someone else a chance to show what they can do!!!

OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT!!!!! '08

TO ALL CLINTON'S SUPPORTERS:
I SEE A MOVEMENT STARTING AND WE ALL SHOULD BE PART OF THIS REVOLUTION IF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY GO FOR THE BIAS MEDIA'S WISHES AND GIVE THE NOMINATION TO OBAMA WE ALL SHOULD BOYCOTT THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IN NOVEMBER AND GO FOR McCAIN. NOT SEAT AT HOME AND WATCH. WE HAVE TO BE PART OF THIS AND MAKE CLEAR WE, AMERICANS ARE SMARTER THAT THE MEDIA AND THE BIG GUYS OF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY THINK. OUR FOUNDER FATHERS FOUGHT HARD TO GIVE US, THE PEOPLE ,THE RIGHT TO DECIDE WHAT IS RIGHT FOR US. ALL I CAN THINK AND SEE FROM OBAMA IS THAT HE IS A LIAR, THE WIFE HAS NEVER BEEN PROUD OF BEING AN AMERICAN UNTIL HER HUSBAND BECAME A PRESIDENTIAL CONTENDER, HIS SPIRITUAL ADVISER IS A RACIST MAN WHO SPREAD HATE. THEY SAY WELL EDUCATED PEOPLE IS WITH OBAMA, I DISAGREE, I AM WELL EDUCATED PERSON BUT I AM NOT LIBERAL AS OBAMA IS. HE WAS VOTED THE MOST LIBERAL SENATOR AND YOU DO NOT SEE THE MAJOR NETWORKS TALKING ABOUT IT. GO "NORMAL AMERICAN PEOPLE" LIKE MYSELF AND LET'S TURN THIS THINK AROUND. START BY TURNING OFF YOUR TV's. I LOVE YOU ALL AND BE STRONG JUST LIKE HILLARY HAS BEEN. LET'S NOT GIVE IT UP.

Uh Oh, Representative Cleaver is gonna get a call from "Rocky" (as Hillary is calling herself in Philadelphia) and it will likely be "heated" (as was her converations with Lewis, Dodd, and Richardson when they defected from her to Obama). Rocky's trainer might be next, slugging her while she is on the stool between rounds. Couldn't happen to a nicer fibber.

I'd rather have a liar or a warmonger than someone who doesn't know if he is black or white!!

If any of the other supporters of the otherside votes for MCcain they deserve 4 more years of suffering and war so if you vote just cause of despite you, ur kids, the elders and education be tortured for another 4 years.

Emmanuel Cleaver= keeping it 100% real! thank you!

Half of you i'm going to switch the McCaine most likly never voted and never will. Go have another beer. Who says one can't change thier mind.

OBAMA FOR AMERICA!!!

If your a democrat act like one and vote for a democrat. ENOUGH with the if this person wins I'll vote republican. If you want change then prove it. Stop acting like spoiled children who didn't get there way.

Cleaver is claiming to be a Clinton supporter, but it is clear from his comments he is obviously an Obama supporter at this point.

It's still anyone's race.

Why can't the media allow the democratic process to unfold without such biased reporting? I cannot remember a presidential campaign, prior to this one, where one candidates' supporters were attempting to bully another candidate into stepping down. Most undemocratic.

She's good at dodging sniper fire.

Not so good at dodging friendly fire.

OBAMA 08

Say whatever you like, all your Obama supporters, the truth is that a woman will be the President of United States of America in Nov. 2008. History is written into the book of destiny including all future events. You can believe and you can ignore, but it does not change the outcome. I share this knowing with you all, so that it can save you some inner struggle eventually. Yes, no one can alter the fate of America and Hillary is a part of it, Obama, the catalyst.

Of course he's right, no matter what happens in Pennsylvania and the other states ... and speaking of the call for primary do-overs, Ohio Dems should call for a do-over since voters in the Buckeye State were snookered by Hillary's NAFTA lies and tales of her "experience" ducking sniper fire overseas. Oh brother.
Enough talk about Michigan and Florida. Nobody has been disenfranchised! We should never see or hear that word again because those two states created their own messes. Sorry Hillary, you didn't "win" those states fair and square. Why spend another penny on primaries in those states. Give the money to charity and so this nation some good.
As Carl Bernstein noted in a brutally honest commentary a couple of weeks back published right here on cnn.com, Hillary is a "serial liar." She's simply not fit to be our president. Or even the Democratic nominee.

Finally, somebody in Camp Clinton who know's how to count. Can't wait till the Clintons are sent home, this time for good. They are bad for the Democratic Party, bad for the White House and Bad for America. They will say absolutley anything to get elected, even lie (or make mis-statements).

He will announce support in mid-April.

she cant and wont win
obama 08

FINALLY-A HILLARY SUPPORTER WHO ENGAGES HIS BRAIN AND NOT JUST HIS EMOTIONS!!!

TO "INTERESTING"-IT'S NOT THE BEER OR THE BACON THAT DRAWS THEM TO DO THIS IN CANADA.

IT'S A SAFE HAVEN FROM THE "CLINTON MAFIA."

(WHICH REMINDS ME–HAS ANYONE SEEN RICHARDSON LATELY??!!!)

I think anyone for Hillary and against Obama is just deep down racism. The person might not want to admit to it and maybe doesn't even want to admit it to themselves. But all these other reasons they come up with are so not true or so not worthy or anything. When you look at how dirty and horrid Clinton had played and how the Clintons have always played there is no reason to suppor her. For those who say they are going to not vote for Obama if he gets the nomination, I say Good Bye!!!! Obama can bring Republicans and Independents over to our side and you will not be missed. We don't want dirty players at all in our party so you might as well vote for the dirty side. Hillary can't even get most of the Democrats to like her. She sure will not be able to sway a republican or a independent to vote for her. She is for the good of our party. She has cast a black cloud over it.

OBAMA / CLEAVER 08/09
A combination of sensible people

Poor Billary...quit while you are ahead Rocky!! Takes a smart man to tell you what you already know!

Star Crazy,

Obama 2008

Hey,

Maybe Hillary can become a commentator on Fox. She looked real confortable on there with Greta

This is for all the people who are supporting Hilliary and making comments that you would vote for McCain instead of Obama in the general election remember one thing.... this election is important not only for your current lives but also future Americans (future sons, daughters etc.) so make a sound decision on facts and not your hearts!! Don't let personally feelings affect your way of life!!

Bravo Jonathan! I am with you, If Hillary does not get the nomination, I am voting for the Republican nominee.

can a democrat explain this to me:

if we raise taxes to a point where around 35-50% of all income goes to the government, how can do nothing but harm the mortgage market further?

i feel if either dem. is elected and try to force their health care plans without years of planning, this nation will be forced into the ground further by a sheer lack of income to pay off the HORRIBLE debt situation we have now...

americans mostly blame someone other than themselves... last i checked, you made yourself have a ton of debt, so deal with it...

Too funny...

Someone telling the truth pisses of the HRC backers. No wonder Hillary is their candidate.

What's even funnier...

Anyone who says anything that sounds even the least bit critical of Hillary, secretly loves and backs Obama.

Btw, I don't think all Hillary supporters are morons... just the vast majority of them that post on these forums!

And... regardless of who you back... if your post is in all caps... You are an idiot!

NOOBAMA 08

Hillary or McCain all the way!

An Indep.? OMG are you a moron or just a republican?
Consider the WH HANDED to McCain wow.
Think, that's all we have to ask of people, start thinking.

People, do you want Bush back in there via McCain? No, Ok then rally behind your party and vote Obama. The reason Gore didn't win is because of those that just didn't/don't think. You are not going to jump ship and vote for McCain if Clinton is out so please stop with these ridiculous empty threats. Stop insulting your fellow Dems and think; about what you want, what you need and who can more likely get that for you. If you are a Dem, you are one for a reason.

Years and years in Wash. does not a good politician make. Like Michael Reagan said, he was there when his father made a number of decisions and agreements, does that make him a suitable candidate? No, please people just think about it. Obama is a smart man, an accomplished and educated man with world experience and integrity. What else do you need? Just calm down and think.

"If Hillary doesn't win, I'll vote McCain."

So what you're saying is, if given a pack of M&M's plain (Clinton), a pack of M&M's peanut (Obama), or a box of rocks (McCain), you'd rather eat a box of rocks. Got it.

How any true Democrat can find McCain palatable defies logic, common sense, and prescient conviction.

A Clinton supporter who can add and subtract? Didn't know they existed.

All of you – please consider these:

1. OBAMA was right on on the Iraq war. He called it with 100% accuracy. before it even began and against public opinion. This is called "presidential" good Judgment.

2. OBAMA has relentlessly discussed his concerns about taking our eyes off Afghanistan and Pakistan and our army being stretched out and wasted on Iraq. This is EXACTLY what Bush's aides discusssed with Bush last week – something OBAMA has been saying for many years now. This is called "presidential" good judgment.

3. OBAMA's proposed economic plan included an overhaul of Federal regulations when it came to dealing with banks, brokers, etc. This is EXACTLY the recommendation of Paulson this week. This is called "presidential" good judgment.

4. HILLARY – once a liar – ALWAYS a liar. How can ANYBODY believe ANYTHING that comes out of this woman's mouth after the Bosnia "misstatements". This is NOT presidential judgment.

People – please get a grip. Hillary's OWN people are obviously already. I'd say most of them are – by now – Obama supporters in the closet.

Just watch OBAMA run away with this Presidency. Just watch.....

Thank you Lord!

The band is getting louder. All she needs is a Bob Dole stage fall moment, and that would wrap up her campaign.

She was leading in early Pennsylvania by 30 POINTS, then 25,20,15,10, and NOW 5 POINTS.

It would not surprise me if OBAMA WINS IT. Everyone said he can not but by looking at polls she is giving up ground fast.

Better run fast Billary the sniper fire is coming in quick!

Thank you Rep. Cleaver! Well said by the honorable gentleman from Missouri. You won't be the only person stunned if Senator Obama does not win the nomination and go on to become POTUS. James Carville and the Clinton “spin doctors” will have a hissy fit with this comment for sure. All right, who's next to throw in their endorsement for the Obama's the People's Choice for the White House contest?

To: Ken in RI

I hope you make more sense in person than what you posted. Next time try spell check. It can be a good thing!!

Jonathan April 1st, 2008 1:19 pm ET

OBAMA WILL NOT WIN, BECAUSE MYSELF AND ALL THE OTHER CLINTONIANS WILL MAKE SURE HE DOESN'T. WE WILL VOTE MCCAIN BY THE MILLIONS. WE WILL VOTE AGAINST THE PAMPOUS MEDIA DARLING. NOW THE MEDIA WILL HAVE TO COVER FOUR YEARS OF MCCAIN.

CLINTONIANS FOR MCCAIN!!!!!!!!!

Typical blathering by another Clinton supporter. Go ahead and vote for McCain. Higher income independents like me will get a huge tax break under McCain while schmucks like you lose your job to China under the Republicans. Voting out of spite will cost you more than you care to acknowledge. And, it really makes you look petty and stupid. Stop acting like a 12 year old!

But, really, go ahead. Prove your point. Seriously, some Clinton supporters have single digit IQs.

He's Right!!

Al, actually you will find that she needs to carry the remaining states by 24% margins to even have a change of winning.

This is a minor point of semantics, but it's incorrect to refer to the interview as having been done for "Canadian public radio". it was done for the CBC, which is a national broadcaster and run by the government. It's only public insofar as our tax dollars go to support its radio and TV operations, but it's not public in the same way as NPR is.

Hillary has less experience in public office than Obama. He has been an ELECTED public servant almost twice as long as she has....He was elected into the Illinois Senate in 1996 while Hillary was still first lady going on "dangerous" missions to Bosnia and Northern Ireland. For some reason, the media is not reporting on this subject. They are also not reporting on the fact that Hillary has been trumpeting her 35 years of experience....she graduated from Yale Law School 35 YEARS AGO!!! Just like she always does, Hillary is bending the truth so it works better for her. I wonder if they had to move her graduation inside because of sniper fire?

This guys too smart to be a Clinton supporter, or a member of U.S. Government.
Must be a plant.
DrFill

I do think that a lot of people have seen Hillary's true colors...

The only reason that they don't want to publicly REJECT AND DENOUNCE her is because they don't want to be seen as haters which, actually, they are not but instead people who love this country and want to elect a talented[once in a life time] young Barack Obama!

If the nomination should go to a broker convention, then I am quite sure a lot of these superdelegates who pledged their supports for Hillary earlier will switch sides and hang onto the Obama wegon! –this is becoming very clear by the day.

Hillary and her people know that after PA, there will be nothing left for her to win!

All of those voting fot Barack or Hillary are Democrats. If your candidate does not win why would you vote for the enemy aka McCain? It doesn't make sense. In the end don't all of us democrats want that same thing? McCain doesn't want what we want...why would you Clintonians vote for him if Barack wins...be smarter people...please! Di you want more ouf our young men and women going to war just because Hillary didn't win?

OBAMA '08

Obama is a leader of today who wants real change, hillary wants what she thinks is her's by ways of being first lady. This is 2008 all americans feel they have an actual say and they sayyyyyy Obama!

I am a Canadian and it turns my stomach to watch Lou Dobbsand his attitude towards Obama! I wonder what he will say now since its one of Clintons backers thats saying Obama will win.

Now would be a GREAT time to start becoming gracious winners!!!
The Hillary bashing needs to stop in order to afford her & her supporters the dignity & respect they deserve for playing their part in building a stronger candidate in Obama. A job well done & a campaign hard fought.
Any other year Hillary would have been the shoe in & would make a fine President. I just don't think many People expected Obama would be this once in a lifetime candidate that he's turned out to be. There have been gaffes & blunders & embellishments on both sides, but at the end of the day Obama just ran a better campaign. He should be commended & rewarded with the nomination & Hillary & her supporters can hold their heads high knowing they did their best.

Obama will not win the general. His ego will pull him and the Democratic party down. His speech with its manipulative diversion to race was just another con.

Play the blame game, and don't take resposibility is the con that has trapped blacks for years. Read something honestly helpful:
"Come On People: On the Path from Victims to Victors" by Bill Cosby and Alvin F. Poussaint.

Hillary or McCain 08!

Jonathan April 1st, 2008 1:19 pm ET

OBAMA WILL NOT WIN, BECAUSE MYSELF AND ALL THE OTHER CLINTONIANS WILL MAKE SURE HE DOESN'T. WE WILL VOTE MCCAIN BY THE MILLIONS. WE WILL VOTE AGAINST THE PAMPOUS MEDIA DARLING. NOW THE MEDIA WILL HAVE TO COVER FOUR YEARS OF MCCAIN.

CLINTONIANS FOR MCCAIN!!!!!!!!!

How STUPID!!!!!!!!!!!

Whatever happened to the democratic party that was soooo proud of both of it candidates? The democratic party that existed, what, three months ago? It still exists, but unfortunately the only voices that get ratings are those of the lunatic hardliners supporting each candidate. Of course, it was obviously much easier for Clinton supporters to say they liked Obama when Hillary was inevitable, now that Obama is starting to look like the inevitable winner, they don't like him soooo much; nor are they sooo proud of they're party and what "it says" about America that we are sooo open-minded and wonderful that we might nominate an African-American, or a Woman. Largest, most open-minded, and diverse democracy in the world is called India. yeah, thats right

It is such a shame that spineless people like Cleaver represent this nation on anything. No backbone no loyalty all he has is his personal interest.

Obama does not need to win Pennsylvania. He just needs to get in the less than 10% margin. That in itself will show how flawed Hillary's strategy is. Imagine, if this was reversed and Hillary were to be one who was leading and Obama losing 14 states in a row. I am sure Hillary's supporters would have called Obama to quit long time ago and for the interest of the country and the party, I believe Obama would have quit long time ago.

Hillary is a fraud and a selfish lady. Time to move on Hillary.

UNITED DEMOCRATS FOR MCCAIN!!!

Believe it or not, but if my boy didn't make this far or let alone have a chance, I wouldn't not care about this election....I mean, what else hasn't change??? Exactly, nothing...

Moveon.Org lost the election for Gore and for Kerry.

Now these radicals will lose the election for Obama.

Way to go, people

Who in their right mind would vote for John McSame. Haven't you received the memo that dusty old white men in Washington are out of style. The era of fear politics is about to be over. It's time for new blood, the establishment has done enough damage.

Well there you have at least one Hillary supporter that seems to understand math.

Obama '08

Hillary people will come around. It seems like their argument is nothing more than "mccain will crush/steamroll/pwn obama", and it just doesn't really make any sense.

HA HA HE HE
sssswwwwweeee eeeeeettttt!!!!!!!!

AMERICA FOR MCCAIN!!!

Cleaver's just stating the obvious truth. She has to carry the remaining states by roughly 15% to even have a chance at winning. Just not gonna happen.

Everyone knows the truth that Hillary would not win the nomination. So why can't people say it out.

To all the haters i know there's nothing OBAMA can do or say that will make you vote for him but we will invite you to the INAGURATION

Hey Cheryl, I am so sorry but I have to get you on this one. YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK IS FUNNY,

HILLARY HAS HER HUSBAND (not to mention, former President of the United States), HER DAUGHTER, AND HER HUSBAND CAMPAIGNING FOR HER SIMULTANEOUSLY ALL ACROSS THE COUNTRY AND SHE STILL CAN'T WIN!!!

JHR Arizona

I have to agree with you!!! I think the problem is we have to choose out of these three.

I take solace in knowing that we still have the house and the senate to help guide this country

I keep seeing the same people responding to these blogs – and always the same rhetoric regardless of what story they are responding to. I wonder if any of them are part of one of the three candidate's campaigns?

Wierd...

In Hillary's camp, it takes guts to say the obvious truth.

I hope this will inspire other supporters to 'call a blade a blade'

There is no need to continue, Dear Hillary.

i think that more and more there are black superdelegates throwing their support to Obama even though they know that the race is way to close to call. It sends a evry bad message and is nt in keeping with Michelle obama's want for everyone to just get along. it lokks like they gravitate that way simply because of race. Its a shame too. So now this guy was probably confrinted by his own people who reminded him of where he came from and that he is supposed to be loyal to the black community. these people try very hard to get ahead in life, to livethe Americna drea and then their own kind call them names (uncle tom0 and shoot them in the foot. yea its sad and its a shame.

Don't be surprised if this guy meets with an "accident." you know, like many other of the clinton crime family "friends."

Clintonians voting for McCain is exactly what the problem with a lot of the polarizing that the Clinton's stimulate among the voters. She did not go after McCain they (Bill too) went after Obama. This is why her negative rating is so high. People do not like nor want that type of rhetoric. For that reason alone people are reluctant to vote for her.

COME ON GUYS, THIS GUY IS NOT A TRUE HILLARY SUPPORTER!!! HE PROBABLY CHANGED TO SUPPORTING OBAMA LIKE OTHER TRAITOR SUPERDELEGATES.

Clinon or McCain 08!

Hard working men of America need representation.

Those of us that have been labeled "Wal-Mart" democrats, we have a voice.

We can kick the butts of the "starbuck" Obama radical elites.

VOTE for Hillary Clinton.

Take back this country from the children and the radicals.

No, Mr. Cleaver. Having a "supporter" like you is the "tragedy of tragedies." This may go down in recent history as one of the really cunning hatchet jobs by a so-called "friend." With friends like you, Senator Clinton doesn't need enemies.

Wow, that was surprisingly honest.

Clinton supporters frequently belittle Obama supporters, calling them star struck (not a very good way to get moderates, btw). But it seems like it is the Clintonites that are the ones who are blinded- they are so in love with the Clintons they think they can live in the past, that this will suddenly become the 1990's. Sometimes it seems like they are voting based on Bill, not Hillary. We don't need a third term of Bush, and we don't need a third term of Clinton. We need someone honest, hardworking, and willing to take responsibility rather than laying blame.

Nice to see not all Hillary's supporters are brainwashed.

"Sorry, I think it will be either Clinton or McCain, too many have had second and third thoughts about Obama, and I'm one of them. At first I just thought he needed more experience but since just a few things have come out, I don;t think he would be good for America, his campaign has been about race and that's not what the issues should be about, it should be for ALL Americans. He nicely turned the preachers hate speeches into blaming everyone else for the preachers racism." JJ

well JJ sorry you don't understand that on the campaign trail both candidates still talk about the issues. Its the media that has been bringing the race issue up time and again. And if you would actually read the transcripts from Wright's sermons you would see that they aren't as bad as you would think. He said some stupid things get over it. And once again Obama is not Wright. Obama conducts himself in fine matter and has been shown to be racist. COME TO THINK OF IT....HOW COULD HE BE. He's half WHITE. He has the distinct advantage of seeing both sides from a unique perspective.

'Not Here" the answer to your question was answered by OB many times before. His Quote,"There is no problem with good ideas, but good ideas go to the senate to die" Remember that. I think you really want to vote for Barack, but are trying to find faults with him. Come on, Vote Obama, you'll feel better..

Obama for President, The Leader of a New Generation.... I can't wait until the Air is clean again...

About Cleaver, I am proud that he has chosen to stand by his convictions and support the Clintons after all they've done or tried to do for the African-American community, which is substantially more than what Barack has done on a Nation wide scale.

Cleaver has chosen honor and principle over race. And that's hard in this election because Barack is just so plain like-able and electable.

But to back peddle during the contest and aid the other side by airing his opinion as to Hillary's chances is more culpable than merely watching your favorite team on television while internally harboring the views that they will likely lose. He has to know that.

Hopefully, the Clintons memories are not that long, when Cleaver comes calling in the future. But I think they will remember.

Mayor, you need to go on record to correct this slip up -help Hillary (or whomever you back) by showing full faith in her and encouraging rather than discouraging people to vote for her; and then stay out of this one.

As the student left the event, the former first daughter also said she doesn't think people should "vote for or against my mother because of my father.

More dumb rhetoric from the Clinton camp. Shame on the Clintons for throwing their daughter under the bus. Its obvious she is in over her head.

Right now, Obama is like Tiger Woods playing the back 9 on Sunday with a 5 stroke lead. Match over.

I love this man, he tells it like it is !

I just LOVE Coach Dungy!

OBAMA 08!

After attending the Texas Senatorial convention this past Saturday, I can not, under any circumstances, vote for Obama. The majority of his supporters acted like total idiots. Rude, pushy, smart-mouthed, uninformed, & not interested in any other aspect of the convention other than casting a vote for Obama and leaving. I was totally disappointed in their actions. And I'm still very suspicious of how some of their precinct chairs calculated the numbers. it was a real eye opener.

If you are a Hillary supporter and vote for McCain because you don't like Obama, you just chose to send our soldiers to die in Iraq over petty dislikes. You might as well be charged with 1st degree murder.

Deana – If Clinton ran as an Independent, she's hand McCain the presidency.

MP

I could'nt have spoken your words any better. The nail was hit on the head several times. The frailties of these Clintonites show clearly on these blogs daily. Instead of attempting to embrace a man that is undoubtly more intelligent, charismatic, patriotic, caring, and presidential than we've had in definitely 8 years, they speak of placing John Wayne McCain in out of bitterness and hatred. Makes you wonder about some people and their true values. There has never been a 1st term president to go into office with any real experience to be president. So why do we always hear about not enough experience. How about judgement.

May God help us in uniting this party after the storm!!! DEM 089-no matter whose name is on the ballot as long as it has a D in front

Billary couldn't pay her healthcare bills because, according to her delusional socialist plan, healthcare is free for everyone in America.

Not the last time I ckecked on my healthcare bill, which rightfully so, as a true american who did not believe in handouts, rightfully paid in FULL!

All I need is reducing my healthcare cost, which Obama plans offer, which Billary desperately needs...since she can loan her campaign $5 million dollars, but stingy enough not to pay her healthcare bill.

Billary, healthcare in america is not free, pay your bill and your campaign debts and do us all a favor by heeding to your supporters advice and DROOOOOOOOOP OUT!

jonathan - you're an IDIOT . .

it's because of people like you that we had to endure 2 terms of Bush and now you're willing to endure 1-2 terms of McCain just because you're an Obama hater. is your pea brain so small that you couldn't objectively see that Clinton is not even an ok leader ?? she's not her husband even though she is a LIAR like him but at least he made the right call when it came to afghanistan and iraq

open your mind dude . . . it's over - vote Obama '08

Hillary is tragic, like Lady Macbeth

blindly greedy for power

a false humanitarian

such poor judgement

she can't see she has already LOST!

She can't figure out how to get off her own insane merry-go-round.

A vote for Obama is a vote for the GOP come the general election...remember that all you Obama fools!

Why do all these politicians go to Canada and start talking the truth?

Is it the beer or the bacon?

Obama will not win because Hillarys supporters will not vote for him.

OBAMA SUPPORTERS ARE VERY WORRY ABOUT THE RESULTS OF THE PRIMARY ELECTION IN PA, AND SO THEY ARE GETTING PEOPLE TO PRESSURE CLINTON TO DROP OUT OF THE RACE BEFORE THE PRIMARY.

To all of the so called Clinton supporters who say if Obama wins they will vote for McCain. That's fine....go ahead.

Your gas bills are high as heck, the economy stinks, mortgages are in the crapper....I could go on and on....

So you choose McCain over Obama considering all of those factors in clear mind and spirit – by all means vote for him. Just don't vote for McCain because Obama is half black. All these candidates are liars, so that shouldn't make or break your decision either.

Democrat '08 – Support our party no matter who wins!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Left Wing of the Democratic Party has done it again, snatched Defeat out of the jaws of Victory.

Wow, this guy is crazy. If you support a candidate you should root for them. What the heck?

After all the vote on the remain are counted including Florida and Michigan, the superdelegates will see who is the best candidate to win in November
When the elections for the nominee are over, I will enjoy see the delegates that now go for Obama change their mind and go back to Hillary 08

Democracts for Mc Cain

If an other black Clinton supporter said this, I will be convienced.

. . .Its good to see a level headed Clinton supporter not afraid to come forward. He knows that this is business, not personal. Its about who
is best for the country as a whole. Clinton has shown that she is willing to use too many divide and conquer tactics. (pitting races against each other?) That is not true leadership.

The fact that so many Clinton supporters are willing to vote for McCain instead of Obama speaks volumes of their (the McCain defectors, not ALL Hillary supporters!!) complete lack of understanding or sense.

If you pay attention to the issues and their stances, any intelligent or reasonable person would agree that Hillary and Obama are incredibly similar in most respects, and I would be glad to have either at the helm of this country. To go from Hillary to McCain is nothing but an idiotic, reactionary step. I'll say it again: If you are really having a hard time deciding between two incredibly disparate forces as Hillary and McCain, you are an unprincipled moron and nothing more. I would encourage you to stay home on election day and read a book for the first time in your life.

News sources likes this shameful entertainment-peddler known as "CNN" have turned this into a Jerry Springer-like debacle where race and gender have been played up in the place of real issues. The American public is being taken advantage of and modified by the whims and will of this bottom-line-oriented sham.

I AM A HILLARY SUPPORTER GO HILLARY ALL THE WAY IF YOU OBAMA CULTISTS STEAL THIS FROM HER WE WILL SINK YOU BY VOTING FOR MCCAIN BECAUSE EVEN THOUGH HILLARY AND OBAMA HAVE VIRTUALLY IDENTICAL POLISY POSITIONS AND PLANS FOR THEIR ADMINISTRAYSHUNS WE HATE OBAMA HUSSAIN SO MUCH WE WILL VOTE FOR MCCAIN AND WHEN OUR SONS AND DAUGHTRS ARE DRAFTED INTO MCCAINS PAN ISLAMIC WARS AND DIE IN THE DESERTS OF THE MIDDLE EAST WE WILL SMILE PROUDLY BECAUYSE THEY WILL BE DEAD BUT WE HAVE DEFENDED HILLARYS HONOR AND THE MEDIA WILL COVER OBAMAS DEFEET

GO HILLARY ALLL THE WAY!!!11!1!1 08

PS I AM NOT A TROLE

hillary,... the race is over.. the rest is a show for the party....we all know that she wants to exit her head high.

To the poster who said the Democrats did nothing for her: yeah. She didn't get committe chairmanships and the entire party didn't follow her down the path to defeat in 1994. They gave her money to win a NY Senate seat.

If that's your idea of 'not doing anything,' I hope you remember to not vote, particularly for an opportunist whose only in this position because her husband was.

IM WONDERING HOW UGLY ITS GOING TO GET WHEN HER AND HER SUPPORTERS COME TO GRIPS WITH THIS? SHE DOESNT SEEM TO KNOW WHERE THE HIGH ROAD IS!

Kudos on your candor and honesty Mr. Cleaver!
My wife heard the interview and was very impressed. Now watch out for the long knives!

Poor Hillary. I wonder who the poor soul will be trying to convince her that it's basically over. It's pretty clear that what Bill says isn't exactly reliable. Maybe Chelsea is the Democrats best hope for a graceful exit.

Cleaver sounds more like a uniter than a divider of the democrat party and that's a good thing. It is important that all democrats stand united.

Obama is up on delegate votes but not far. The problem is that he is raised by a white racist and mentored by a black racist so what product of a person does that produce?

People are easily swayed by moving speeches and mild mannerism. Hitler was a prime example of this. Not saying Obama is Hitler but the methods of swaying people are exact.

The issue with Obama is that he has a number of race issues himself. I suspect most of his supporters have not read his two books and seen the psychology he really has. Those books act as a confessional of his character. His drug use, racism, denial, and embracement of Islam when things were hard for him.

However no matter what gets exposed to him the media just cuddles him and tells Obama it is ok, we will ignore it. Any other candidate with the numerous voting, insider trading, racism, anti-American issues Obama has would be out long ago.

I am so sick of Clinton supporters hating on the youth vote!

Your envy is palpable....GET OVER IT!

The Youth of America like Obama over Hillary and this time WE are actually voting..HA..HA!

No wonder you want to vote for 72 year old 100-years in Iragq McCain...because you old Clintonistas won't be around for that disaster, so your spiteful and immature losing ways will lead the country to disaster...FOR WHAT???

Because Hillary didn't get what she DESERVED???
Are you kidding me??

You claim the youth are star struck...at least we have done our homework and aren't just voting because we like someone's last name or their husband.....

TO:Jonathan April 1st, 2008 1:19 pm ET
YOU DO THAT JONATHAN, YOU AN ALL YOUR CLINTONONIANS AS YOU PROMISE WILL VOTE MCCAIN. THAT'S WHAT WE EXPECT FROM COWARDS WHO DON'T WANT CHANGE BECAUSE ALL YOU SEE IS A BLACK MAN IN THE WHITE HOUSE!!!

DEMOCRATS O8

Finally it is nice to see a clinton supporter with good Math Skills. Give it up Hillary you full me once shame on you, twice shame on Me it ain't going to happen.

Obama 08

LIBERALS FOR MCCAIN!!!

I understand Hillary staying in the race through the June 3rd primaries, but hopefully things will have been decided by then. Her only hope in winning is if Obama stumbles or her attacks so weaken him in the eyes of Democrats and the nation that he would seem unelectable.
My dearest hope, as an Obama supporter, is that the good people of Pennsylvania decide to be the deciding factor in the race by going for Obama. That would end this long and arduous campaign.
I can't understand the working people choosing Hillary over Obama, when she has been a dhild of privilege in Lake Forest, ill., while Obama has come up the hard way from poverty, has fought for the rights of working Americans on the S Side of Chicago, and understands, as Hillary never can, the plight of the underprivileged in this country.

Obviously not a Clinton backer! Your headline is childishly incorrect. You need a fact checker. All blacks want Obama to win because of the racism card that Obama plays. He will never be president. Too much bad baggage from cocaine to lies on Nafta to Wright to mediocre whites to blunt nosed Italians. Obama is a militant racist and more will come out from his cocaine days at Columbia.

It will be McCain in the end. Only the press wants Obama.

This truth Shall set you free

But it is not about Race. Then what is it about. Making History. At what expense. Obama is not a Mainstream African-American. Those of you who think he is are totally confused. Examine his record or lack of it and that tells you he is not Mainstream. He may win the nomination but will lose the election. McCain will steamroll this novice politician in November.

As for Obama winning against McCain no way.
I as a Hillary supporter will not vote for Obama, due to the tactics that Obama and his supporters have used, trying to short circuit the primary season. Wanting to proclaim Obama the winner by fiat, and trying to change the rules and role of the superdelegates.

I think the race will be decided First week of June for sure, no need to go to convention.

'Obama' needs time to face head on with 'McCain' and sooner that is, better it will be.

A.M.
Houston, Texas

Again, Clinton supporters using all CAPS and bad grammar to get their point across. One of them is even referring to Clinton supporters as CLINTONIANS. That's scary. I believe we're all AMERICANS looking for a sensible, postive, and yes, charismatic, leader.

Hilllary, Bill and their supporters are not going to be satisfied until the Democratic party is torn to shreds!!!

I've been formulating this thought in my mind for awhile...I believe that they're "closet" Republicans!!!! I think they're staying in this doomed campaign of theirs to wreak as much havoc as they can prior to the Democratic Convention so that whoever the nominee is (presumably Senator Obama) will be so weakened by all the nastiness and controversy that's transpired, it will be a cakewalk for the Republican nominee in the General Election come November. That's what I think!

If Obama doesn't win, the country loses. We either have a liar in the White House, or a Warmonger.

You choose.

Obama 08

Glad at last one Clinton supporter has a grip on reality.

Sounds to me like this is one very confused person. Who does he support? And why?

Yes, Jonathan I'm witih you! We can't have Obama as president. I know several Clinton supporters who will be voting for McCain if Hillary doesn't get the nomination.

I wish we could be unified now and play clean political Game.Let not be selfish ... Think about winning against Mccain in November

Independents for McCain!

Seems like Hillary is the Huckabee of the Democrats. Sure, stay in the race and let people vote for you even though there is now way to catch up or honesly win the nomination. We all know this but you continue to "let the people vote" however, I bet I know what you would say if the tables were turned and Obama was saying these things. Hopefully in June you'll come out and respectfully let Obama take the nomination and then maybe let people respect you once again for doing the right thing.

If you believe Obama will be the winner, don't you think it is time to endorse him officially??? duhhhhhhhhhhh

Its no longer a Hillary thing, or an obama thing. Its a numbers thing. the numbers say Obama. The Democrats have voted Obama. You dont have to take it personally, but people do.

I wager not many Hillary supporters want John Mcain in the white house...the only ones who do are Republicans who crossed over in hopes to cause chaos in the democratic party

Frank

Mark said: "if hillary doesn't win in pennsylvania, it's time to stick her with a fork and see if she's done!"

...wait a minute, isn't that what they said before she "won" Texas?, lol.

She'll be campaigning as long as she wants to campaign. Fact is this thing is decided already, we just have to wait for her to admit it.

Cheryl.... ummm... are you sane??

So switch! What are you waiting for. Go switch to Obama!

WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN DUDE ?

Wow, even Clinton's professional supports are waking up!

And we are surprised because? Is this really news?

He said before that he's likely choose whomever his district supports.

Perhaps others should take the same position? By this I am referring to Kennedy, Richardson, Kerry - all of whom are representatives from constituencies who support Hillary Clinton.

Obama's camp wants to flip-flop on this issue whenever convenient for their purpose. Sounds like politics as usual for this puppet of Kennedy-Kerry Democrats. HOW IS THIS "CHANGE"? It's not.

And look at HRC's meeting with her husband's worst enemy, Richard Mellon Scaife. Bet James Carville must have loved the interview with Mellon Scaife. What does he call HRC for taking sides with her husband's worst enemy.

Well Cleaver,better get the smelling salts ready,because there is no way the people will vote for a lightweight like Obama given the desperate problems facing our country.McCain will wipe the floor with Obama.Oh, and as far as being a Clinton supporter,how phoney-baloney is that!

The writing is on the wall.....

I think everyone knows that Barack Obama will be the winner of the democratic primary UNLESS the Clintons can turn enough superdeligates to hand it to Hillary.

It's the only reason Hillary is refusing to drop out. She's counting on having the superdelegates go against the people of this country to "select" a person who didn't actually win an election.

Superdelegates or Supreme Court. She's not unlike George Bush in this respect, is she?

Wow....did he say that he would support the losing candidate even though he knows they are going to lose. Good for him. I can tell you if a ship was sinking...I wouldn't sit there, I would jump ship. The captain is the only person who is suppose to stay.

That was probably the best comments from an official I've read in a while. Real talk!

Yes, finally someone in Hills camp sees the light of day!!!

Hillary's myth of over throwning Obama is just that a MYTH!

We've seen it already in the polls that her backers are not loyal to her...Not the way Obama's backers are loyal to him and his principles!

THIS MAN IS SYAING WHAT MANY HILLARY BACKERS KNOW AND ARE AFRAID TO SAY FOR FEAR OF GETTING HER WRATH!

HILLARY YOU'RE SINGLEHANDEDLY BRINGINING THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY DOWN!!!!! IF YOU REALLY CARE ABOUT THIS COUNTRY GIVE IT UP AND SUPPORT OBAMA SO THE DEMOCRATS CAN WIN IN NOVEMBER!!!!

I HAVE A FEELING A LOT OF CLINTON SUPPORTERS THINKS THE SAME WAY

At least one Clinton backers sees the truth.

Nice to see Hillary's own people are starting to come to their senses if not very slowly.

I hope it's not too little too late.
I'm afraid the Clintons and their supporters have already given away the White House to McCain.

YOU KNOW WHAT I THINK IS FUNNY?

OBAMA IS OUT SPENDING HILLARY 2TO 1 IN ALL STATES YET HILLARY IS WAY AHEAD IN PENNSYLVANIA AND INDIANA!!!!!!!

THANK YOU PEOPLE FOR NOT FALLING FOR THE LIES!!!

8 YEARS AGO I LIVED IN MICHIGAN AND RAN 2 BUSINESSES IN INDIANA (GOSHEN AND MISHAWAKA) THESE ARE SOME HARD WORKING PATRIOTIC AMERICANS THAT ARE SMART AND THEY KNOW WHO CAN CHANGE THIS COUNTRY!!!!!

I WONDER WHAT THE OBAMA SUPPORTERS WILL SAY WHEN HILLARY WINS BOTH OF THESE AND POSSIBLY NORTH CAROLINA?

OBAMAS LIES AND WRIGHT CONTROVERSY HAVE HURT HIM IN THESE STATES AS WELL!!!!!!!

THIS IS WHY I AM VOTING FOR HILLARY!!!!!!

WOW,

Anytime a Hillary supporter comes out and says that he'd be surprised if Obama is not the next President of the United States, it goes to show you just how much confidence Hillary supporters have in her.

This isn't no false accusations or made up stories by Obama supporters, this is actually a full fledged Clinton supporter who has doubts that she can win the nomination more or less the general election. I still feel she should stay in because she is still close enough to create doubt in voters minds but after all the primaries and caucauses are over, if she still doesn't have enough delegates, enough of the popular vote then she should then, and only then graciously bow out and throw her support (genuinely) behind Barack Obama.

I appreciate Missouri Rep. Emanuel Cleaver honesty. It is very realistic and he is thinking of the Party first and what is more realistic!!!

Thank you Missouri Rep. Emanuel Cleaver!!!

Clinton might as well just write him off of her list–clearly he doesn't want to be the only black professional on record not supporting Obama. He's giving Clinton a not so sublte warning that in a covention split decision–he's voting for Obama.

LOL, hilary needs to go down fast.

Obama may win but the Clinton war machine will snatch the candy out of Obama's hand. You know democrats do like us in power they just say that to get our vote!

Residing in Connecticut, I honestly don't know anything about Congressman Cleaver, but I do respect a man who tells it like is.

Finally someone from the Clinton camp is facing reality....

Hillary,

Please pay your healthcare bills on time. Do I need to remind you that under your plan its a crime not to pay your healthcare bills? What a mess your campaign is in. Goodluck with running an entire country.

Writing is on the wall. Hillary Clinton will never be the nominee, or the president of the United States. EVER. Get used to it folks. Esepcially all you Clinton supporters who refuse to acknowledge the truth of the situation and stick your heads in the sand like confused,. dumbfounded ostrichs.

Very good! That's the begining of the end for Clintons,,, I expect all 300 'super' delegates to support Obama by the end of April!!

Max

For the Hillary democrats, voting for McCain is a viable option- they are an older, more conservative, and now a disenfranchised-by-their- own party demographic.

For Obama supporters, voting for McCain is an idle threat- they are a younger, more radical and star-struck demographic.

I wish that the Clinton camp would listen to what their own supporters are saying. Now is the best time to graciously withdraw from the race and avoid political suicide.

OBAMA WILL NOT WIN, BECAUSE MYSELF AND ALL THE OTHER CLINTONIANS WILL MAKE SURE HE DOESN'T. WE WILL VOTE MCCAIN BY THE MILLIONS. WE WILL VOTE AGAINST THE PAMPOUS MEDIA DARLING. NOW THE MEDIA WILL HAVE TO COVER FOUR YEARS OF MCCAIN.

CLINTONIANS FOR MCCAIN!!!!!!!!!

We should let this thing run to its logical end, prior to the convention.
There should be no question as to who could have, would have been the candidate of choice for the Democratic Party. People on both sides of the argument should stop whining, and do something positive.

This is a problem that's about to take care of itself. Hillary has been keeping a deep dark secret that's about to come to light. Her campaign is financially bankrupt. She no longer has the funds to continue for any length of time. She may have the will to continue, but money talks. No money? No campaign. Are you a Hillary backer? Quit whining about CNN and superdelegates, and Michigan and Florida, and sniper fire, and Chelsea getting asked inapropriate questions, and put your money where your mouth is. Send money, or watch your candidate pull out due to financial problems.

Now that's what I call straight talk. The Kansas City Chiefs comment was right on the money. We all know she can't win. At least he's standing by his candidate (until she sits down).

Sorry, I think it will be either Clinton or McCain, too many have had second and third thoughts about Obama, and I'm one of them. At first I just thought he needed more experience but since just a few things have come out, I don;t think he would be good for America, his campaign has been about race and that's not what the issues should be about, it should be for ALL Americans. He nicely turned the preachers hate speeches into blaming everyone else for the preachers racism.

I love this guy!!! At least some folks in the Clinton camp have common sense.

OBAMA 08

if hillary doesn't win in pennsylvania, it's time to stick her with a fork and see if she's done!

ANOTHER TRAITOR

Clinton backer saying Obama will win......... Priceless.

Vote Democrat '08

Let's get these Repub's out!

Call it whatever you want, I'll just call it inevitability!

Hillary supporters meet your destiny!

Obama 08!

The writing is on the wall. Come June, Hillary will end her campaign and endorse Obama.

This is the first time I've heard a hillary person come to grips with reality. Of course Obama will win! Mr. Cleaver has proved to me that SOME hillary people aren't in a dreamworld! GET A GRIP EVERYONE!

Can't wait to see how Lou Dobbs spins this one. He keeps complaining that it's only Obama supporters calling for Hillary to get out of the race, well this isn't quite a call, but it's close enough.

OUCH! That one hurts.

And now the superdelegates are starting to see the light!

Obama, Clinton and McCain out of a "Country of 300 million people this is the best we have to offer" Ny dream is to have a real leader! These are all products of big politics "The Washington Party" and all they want is for the Govt to have more Power.

The American People have turned into worms they deserve these three, all the same.

The debt, the dollar, the jobs, Govt controls Wall Strreet, The federal reserve, what a joke they made the mess now they are going to lead it??

Wake up America you are Surfs

I say it again, I think Clinton should show the Democratic Party the same respect they have shown her, pull a Lieberman leave the party and run independent. You would see some freaked out scared people then. I so think she could pull it off, she would have my vote. Forget the Democratic Party Hillary what have they done for you lately, GO INDEPENDENT!!!!

Its good to see someone on the Clinton side can actually do the math. I applaud you for standing behind Clinton and yet knowing that it may be inevitable for you to switch to help unite the democratic party.

Obama 08

I think Obama needs to address race issue once again, to his supporters this time.

Obama does not win my vote for sure. He is on the senator floor for three years now and pretty much not having any proposal that he claims he would do if he was president. How could we know he would do them, when he had the chance to do them for three years and done nothing?

Obama is waiting on you, but don't push Hillary cuz so many have dropped out which is unffair you know.

Hillary supporters can anyone call John Edward to come back and put his name on the ballot as the race for White House is still wide open? Every state most count and candidate most not drop out until the last state votes.

It' s unffair for the rest of the states not to cast for many candidates as they desire instead of just 2 people.To drop out when other
states have not voted is unamerican.

Very very unffair. Come to think of it why should they drop out and many state have not haven't vote?

The chicken candidates whom have dropped out makes people focus on only 2 candidate instead of leaving open for many choices which would have more interesting.

YOU THINK !!!

Do all you Hillary supporters think she is for democracy? Honestly? She could care less about the voters rights. She accepted the fact those two states would not count if and when they broke the rules. When she was ahead on delegates her stance was all about the delegate lead. Now she is crying foul again saying she has the right to change the pledge delegate vote. What? Every vote should count?..Unless it is a vote against her. Every Clinton supporter is screaming about how unfair their canidate is being treated. She is treated that way because she is dishonest, and negative. Obama has no choice but to defend himself. "Shame on you Barak Obama"..? Is she serious? The funny thing about that line was, what Obama said about her in Ohio and Nafta turned out to be true. It has nothing to do with the fact she is a woman. I was going to vote for her. She is negative. She thinks the American people are idiots. The spin she puts on everything, the lies, the misstatements ect……Everyone just didn't wake up one morning and say to themselves, "lets all be against Hillary" She did this to herself. Her campaign is a mess. Lets talk about healthcare. Under her plan she would be charged with a criminal offense for not paying her healthcare bills for her campaign. How can she say every american must pay for healthcare than not pay her own bills? Wake up!

SMART MAN
