CLINTON SHOULD GIVE UP WITH HONOR ORTHWISE SHE WILL BECOME RIDICULOS.

"Senator McCain is an extraordinary American," Rice also said of the presumptive Republican nominee. "A really outstanding leader and obviously a great patriot."

Yes, all Republicians do not forgot to mention "patriot" each and every time when they talk about McCain. Can you sense something to expect in the general election? That is the swiftboat hurdle Obama will face if he were the nominee.

Dunb little sheep,following an unknown Obama…

Has everyone forgotten all of Hillary's wrong doings in the Rose Law firm? Also, all of the mysterious going on with the Whitewater escapade and the Mc Doogles going to prison instead of speaking out on the Clintons??????How anyone can trust the Cintons is beyond us. Ask Dick Morris and listen to him…he worked for them for years in the white House…wake up folks…

Well, this PA resident can't wait to vote for Obama so Hillary can take her electoral butt whipping here like a real feminist. Even if Obama loses PA to Hillary by a low single digit spread, he still "wins" because he had almost nothing here to begin with and she had a double digit lead. If Hillary wishes to play "dirty politics" as she's been doing against Obama, then let her take mud thrown in her face when appropriate just like the men. Now there's real equal opportunity between the genders for you.

Obama 08′

I'm sure Hillary will win Pennsylvania by a few points, but not near enough to legitimately stay in the race.. .the question will then be – how graciously will she bow out, or if she even will bow out? Lets hope the superdelegates end it for her if she is not willing.

NEW POLL NUMBERS:
OBAMA UP BY 5 POINTS PLEASE CHECK MSNBC. OBAMA 08!

Stop whining. CNN loves Hilary…all the "experts" are former Clinton people. Wolf would drop to a knee and purpose if Hill Dawg dumped Billy. The only reason she is still in the race is because the media keeps spinning faint possibilities she could win. Every word from Clinton camp makes it to the ticker. The media runs the message of her ads because she doesn't have the money to put it on the air.

I also wish you people would not buy into CNN's exaggeration. Obama has lied a lot himself

Doubtful that there has been any 'shift' away from Clinton, althought CNN would like to think so.

If you build yourself on lies, cheating, conspiracy, and greed, you are eventually doomed to fail. Even if Clintons are clever enough to fool enough Americans and win Dem nomination and general election, they are utmost selfish and dishonest people to me. I lost all respect,once I had, for them. The way they conducted their campaign so far to win the Dem nomination is very unhealthy.

Brian April 8th, 2008 1:08 pm ET

Meanwhile, Obama's voice has been positive, clear and consistent. Vote for real hope and change!
————————————————–

Positive?………………………….You must be one of the YES WE CAN OBAMA Zombies.

Read his racial comments from his book and see how positive they are.

I don't believe this poll, either…

I read that at least some of the
MEDIA IS PART OF THE OBAMA campaign.
That explains it…

Hillary Clinton = George Bush of the democrats!

Lies, cheats, thick headed, pig headed and more…

Sabrina,

What I look for in return for my contributions to the Obama campaign is honesty.

Obama '08

Hillary has more electoral college to date than Obama. Hey superdelegates vote or switch your vote to HILLARY!!!

This should be a good topic to discuss in your situation room. Hillary is already ahead of the electoral college not even including Michigan and Florida.

Wake UP CNN…wake up situation room. wake up Mr. Wold and Mr. Cooper!!!

The poll is ridiculous. You people in the media do exaggerate too much. Bring up the unsure numbers as well.

HA HA

Why does the title include the word "fading?" This is misleading within itself because it draws conclusion. I realize the media is bias towards Obama but do you have to show it in all of your news articles. Also, Jack Cafferty appears as the biggest know it all on TV. He would have more credibility if he was more balanced, instead of all the negative Clinton comments.

Anna, I don't know what imaginary world you live in. I live in Pittsburgh and everyone I know laughs at the idea of Hillary in the Whitehouse. Senator Obama's speech at Soldiers and Sailors was 'sold-out' within an hour.

Can you imagine Clinton debating McCain and he says anything like "Ms. Clinton, you may like imagining you were under sniper fire but I have lived through a real war and know what its about" She'd be finished! If you want a republincan in the Whitehouse vote for Mrs. Bill Clinton.

Angus why are you like so many people who can't let go of the past…Bitter your table for one is ready.

Why has the news not followed-up on her involvement with her husband's pardoning all those criminals

just so you know, you better not trust the polls, my sister and I were both polled and we are Hillary supporters, we both said that we were voting for Obama, and I know of several other people that lie to the pollsters, that's why you guys have been wrong, wrong, wrong all primary season, you watch double digits baby!!.

Chris ~ All you need to do is got to Senator Obama's web site and you will find extensive information about his stand on the issues, his plans, his experience, his history. Have you read his books? Please don't make blanket, empty claims when you have not done any 'background.' As for Hillary's experience to the Rogers out there, it has become quite evident that a lot of her 'experience' has been a figment of her imagination.

Forget about the double digit lead Hillary! On a daily basis, people are switching from Hillary to Obama. Its going to be a very close race. Obama might just win it!

Why is no one reporting that Hilliary really did not win TEXAS. In order to win texas you MUST win the primary as well as the caucus. When you add the primary and caucus results Barack has won more delegates.

Do any of you rabid Obama fans know of Larry Sinclair?

And if you do..do you really think that the Republicans won't eat him alive with that in the fall?

Last time I checked, Hillary hasn't had dealt cocaine.

Obamaniacs insisted on her tax returns.. ok, ya got 'em.
Bosnia, gimme a break? its an old war story.
How many has your grampa told from WWII that change with time?

WAKE UP AND READ!

Where is this poll from? It doesnt seem like it was done in the state of PA…

Please people just consider this. People who live a life of lives have trouble remembering the real truth. Even at John McCain's age, I'd bet he can remember each time he was shot at, for REAL. It would be great to have a woman in the white house, but not this one. If she's nominated, or finds a way to strong arm her way in, get ready for 4 more years like the last 8. Does anyone really want that?

OBAMA!
The "underdog", the unknowing American guy who makes the entire "universe" dream for a new World.
Yes he did it already even he is not yet the president of USA.

OBAMA
OBAMA
OBAMA
OBAMA!!!!

I hope the polls are correct that Obama is gaining on Clinton. Maybe she will shut up about what states she can win because of blue collar, ederly and white men.

How come if anything positive that pertains to Obama, it is always headline in your site but when it comes to HIllary when she received superdelegates from Artkansas is not a headline. When Hillary has more electoral college than Obama is not a headline and not a topic in your situation room for discussion. Thsi is very im[oratnt and crucial topic. CNN is unfair!!!

I hate all this talk about experience when hillary doesn't have that much more…. She was on the arm of Bill Clinton for 8 years, but that doesn't mean anything. The only thing her experience is going to do is handicap her if she is the nominee when McCain shows his experience. What will she have then…"I can lie REALLY WELL!!" That will be her only stump speech. Oh, I forgot.. We know how much Walmart is helping our country and how much unions are killing our country, so We hillary can tout her 6 year stay on the board of Walmart where she spoke AGAINST unions… Good job Hillary supporters.. you really picked a good one.

And I don't care if she knew about Penn's lobbying or not. SHE CHOSE HIM to be on her team.. She teams herself with lots of lobbysists… THESE ARE THE PEOPLE RUINING WASHINGTON. These are the same reason she accepted the largest payout from the health care industry. When you team yourself with individuals like this, they will affect your judgment. Obama has accepted no lobbyist monies and has been a true moralist. He has run a great campaign and will directly be a great president.

Obama 2008… anything else will be the continued demise of our great nation.

Oh and for the Michigan comment: I quote
"it took a Clinton to get the 1st Bush out of the White House and it will take a Clinton to get the 2nd Bush OUT OF THE WHITE HOUSE!"

Go Hillary!

Clinton took out the first bush just to bring another one back in… except for that one, the name was Lewinsky.

The candidiate with more money usually wins. It's a sad fact in American politics. Obama is outspending Clinton on ads by a HUGE margin. Clinton, however, has managed to stay on top. Her ability to overcome his money advantage shows what a strong Democratic candidiate she is. Democrats, don't let money decide our nominee.

SurveyUSA just released has her back up 18 points. at 56 – 38 in Pennsylvania.

Just goes to show that there are so many SHALLOW people in the USA. They are so frigging afraid that a WOMAN would make a great leader. I would rather have Hillary on my side than a Bigoted Obama. He won't even address gay issues and yet his catering to the Gay community. He has an Anti gay man that is part of his campaign. Just goes to show you that he will say anything to get a vote. Just looking out for his own RACE…….

Hillary and Bill donated "charitable funds to themselves". Oh my!
Hillary and Bill lied to Americans about Canada. Canada apoligized
to the Americans. Bill was in Canada at the time the lie was "set up"
Obama won 14 states and Hillary lied to Ohio to win their vote. Fishy?
Hillary is a habitual pathological liar. So is Bill.
America have in the past made heros our of skunks and liars.
Old Politics don't work no mo!!!!!!! no mo, no mo.
Look at Bill's record on Columbian Trade Deal. His support of it!!!! Yes he did!!!!
Hillary wants to support Columbia Trade Deal but it might really hurt
her right now.
Hillary WILL OWE Her Campaign $20 Million if she quits today.
Obama man you go. you go, Man!!!!!
Hillary, Don't you come back no mo, no mo, no mo. Don't you come
back no mo!!!!! We love Obamaman!!!! No matter what!!!!!!!

A recent SurveyUSA poll shows that Clinton leads by 18. If anyone knows anything about election year polling, SurveyUSA is one of the most accurate polling companies out there. I would put far more stock in it than other polls.

"Anna, Pittsburgh April 8th, 2008 1:08 pm ET

I dont believe this poll. My whole community outside of Pittsburgh is supporting Hillary overwhelmingly. I can tell she has deep support all over Pittsburgh which is suppose to be an easy win place for Obama."

That's right Anna, please don't let data get in the way of your belief. GW Bush certainly doesn't.

Geez, why are so many Clintonistas unable to grasp basic math? I think some of you went to college, right?

To Huffington's Huffers, tell obama to do the right thing and just go away. We need a strong leader like Sen. Clinton

If anyone thinks Obama doesn't have lobbyist under his thumb, you are SORELY mistaken.

Did Obamanistas actually know that Obama has donated DOUBLE what any other candidate has to SUPER DELEGATES?

Do your research. I am becoming more and more ashamed of my fellow Americans.

The anger and hatred spewing of Obama supporters.. its disheartening and unnecesary.

NEVER GIVE UP HILLARY !

Chris have you STILL not read Mr. Obama's platform? I thought we had put this "empty suit" discussion to rest ages ago, but it appears that not everyone has learned to read… platforms that is. Let me use small words to respond, Yes we can and Change are slogans, short easily remembered phrases that help identify the candidate (I would list Ms. Clintons as a reference for you but there have been sooo many of them) stump speeches are designed to get you pumped up about the candidate, the technical pages from ANY candidate would put you to sleep (I doubt you remember but one foo the largest complainyts about Mr. obama at the staart of this election is he was boring talked in too much depth about his policies and the issues) if you want that informtion you need to actually do the leg work yourself and look it up it is readily availiable on his web site (as is Ms. Clinton's). So to answer your questions NO he is not planning to change things with a slogan but with a plan… you are expected to do a bit of work and look it up yourself sorry life is not spoon fed to you.

I would like to believe that the Clinton's motives for seeking, or re-seeking as the case may be, the presidency are in the interest of working America. But somehow, their $109 million pot of gold and their rather venonous campaign tactics tell me, power and privilege is the real driver. Let's see what some new blood can do. Hillary (and Bill) stand down and let fate run its course.

ELE (Everybody love everybody) Whether, Sen. Obama or Clinton wins the spot, i'll be voting Democrat in November. Time for a shift in leadership. No one candidate is perfect or will have all the answers, wake up people…God is in Control!

Dear God, Thank you for making a way where there seems to be no way. Please make the "Clintons" go AWAY! Amen

Justin PA

My ADD won't allow me to make it through your manifesto. Next time, could you cut it down to 2 or 3 chapters?

Shame on you CNN for puting a negative spin on Obama catching up to liar Clinton in the polls.
He is winning not becaue he is outspending her, but because her lies are catching to with her.
Even my 5yr old son, knows that is the reason why Obama is catching up to her.
Shame CNN

When he was running for the position he has now, he was in a 4th of July parade. He was smiling and shaking hanbds and telling the people "I can help you, you need jobs here, I can do it. You need lower taxes, I can do it, you need better schools, I can do it, just vote for me and I will get you all on the right track." Well, we voted for him, and what has he done. Let's see, went on book tours, and voted present and set his sights on being president. Well, we heard how you can help us….we are still waiting.

I'm confused. Penn's dealings had nothing to do with Hilary's campaign, but Obama's racist pastor-as you so eloquently put it- is directly related to Obama's campaign? How is that double standard working for you?

Quite frankly, Hilary's narrow lead in PA is a defeat for her. Obama doesn't need to win, he just needs to even the playing field so that Hilary does not win a majority of the state's delegates.

OBAMA IS GOING TO CHANGE IRAQ.
That is about the only thing he can change.
HE WILL GIVE BACK IRAQ TO AL QAEDA.
While we all stay at home to pray with Jeremiah Wright.
ALLAH AQBA !!!!

Obama 08? No, I don't think so…

The Obama supporters on this website are so absolutely negative and seem to be hatemongers. They make the most personal attacks I've ever seen towards a candidiate. All they ever do is attack Sen. Clinton in the most base and nastiest way. If that's what Obama is about, then I say no way Obama. We deserve better than that.

Know what? It ain't advertising money, CNN… it's Hillary's constant lying and negative campaigning.

Americans and Pennsylvanians are realizing that voting for the Clintons means having to put up with another four years of their nonsense.

Meanwhile, Obama's voice has been positive, clear and consistent. Vote for real hope and change!

OBAMA '08!

How can Hillary win the general election when she hasn't and isn't winning the primary election?!
Please Dems stop saying you'll vote McCain if Hillary doesn't win the primary (as though you're holding us hostage).
Vote McCain, then watch your sons and daughters be drafted because you spite Obama!

I dont believe this poll. My whole community outside of Pittsburgh is supporting Hillary overwhelmingly. I can tell she has deep support all over Pittsburgh which is suppose to be an easy win place for Obama.

What would you expect. All the false adds Mr Obama has dumped on penn will no doubt sway some of those who are to lazy to do the research for themself. I think it's just amasing Hillary has done as well as she has concidering how biased the media has been. Mr Obama might be handed the nomination but he'll be distroyed by the republican machine. Anyone voting for the most qualified would not even concider Mr Obama. Lets just hope the remaining primaries get it right and send Mr Obama packing.

I personally think Sen. Clinton is a good candidate. She really shouldn't keep talking about the spending though, because her's is a household name, he has to spend the $ to get his name out. I think she is too good a candidate to have to keep dealing with all the spin!

Um, isn't that what "they" said about NH and Texas?? Polls are not perfect! Polls do not talk but people do–when they vote. The public really needs to possess a healthy skepticism about polls. Really, now how can they project the votes of an entire nation by talking to only a thousand or so people? They do not talk to everyone but instead they take a "sampling" from it. If you really believe they talk to every single person then you are not very smart people. The media is also to blame for this poll stuff b/c they do not do a better job of educating the public.

As for me–I'll not get all giddy or nervous when it comes to polls.

Obama is NOT change w/ the endorsment of Senators Kennedy, Kerry, Daschel, etc. (this is old school politics as usual). Also, Obama lied about fund donations from BIG OIL companies. Per Meet the Press on Sunday, Mr. Russert stated Obama did in fact receive big money from the Big Oil Companies. Who's lieing now?

Hillary's tendency to be 'for something before she was against it' has crossed over to me and many other former supporter. 'I used to be for her but now I'm against her.' We don't need another LIAR in the WH!

What about the SurveyUSA poll that still has Clinton up by 18 points?

its not fair, its not fair not fair not fair, it takes Hillary longer to do her hair. its not fair.

For the record- Hillary did not win Texas. please check your math.

Personally I'm not happy with either party. But as undecided as I'm about voting democrate or republican, one decision I have made is there is no way in the world I'd vote for Clinton. Only candidate running that will tell a lie to cover a lie. It's amazing that the people of this country can't see it.

NEW POLL TODAY

CLINTON +15 IN PENN…

SURVEY USA POLL

I am 52 years old. If Clinton wins, that means in my lifetime, a Bush or Clinton will have occupied the White House for 32 years — enough already!

Obama '08!

REV WRIGHT FOR PRESIDENT! HE TELLS THE TRUTH! GOOD LUCK AMERIKKKA!

Turns out that Health care story about the pregnant lady was actually true for the most part. Of course, we won't hear that on CNN, as they are solidly in the bash hillary camp.
Second, we also won't hear of Obama claiming he has more foriegn policy experience than Hillary or McCain… thats well above any 'I created teh internet' malarky. Yet he said it last night.

Further, what issues has Obama taken a stand on? Only one I hear about is 'he was against the war from the start'. Well thats nice, but was he there to hear those intelligence briefings from the CIA? no. Did he have any real constituency to answer to? no. So did he essentially take a risk free stand on the issue? yes. If he really didn't support the war, would he vote against its appropriations? no. ok then.

Other than that, all I've heard is this mantra of change and a whole lot of 'I'm torn on this issue and can't decide which way to go'.

So maybe ask him, where does he stand on gun control exaclty? where does he stand military intervention in Iran? Where does he stand on Bush's attendance at the Olympic opening?

Of course, why do I have to ask this? when will the media stop fawning over him and start at least asking some hard questions…

Thank-you, Pennsylvania!

CNN didn't you have this same poll yesterday. I know your salivating for Obama to win, but at least wait till the numbers actually go down again for Clinton.

Women Voters:

I am actually ashamed for you and saddened by your lack of WANTING CHANGE. I expect more from women.. more intelligence and desire to research the truth.

Let's nominate another patriarch to do that same things that have always been done.

Where are Obama's plans?? Hmm..if you look at those he actually has.. they mirror what Sen. Clinton has already introduced.

Oh wait, experience isn't needed for the tough job of President, is it?

GO HILL GO!!

Obama 08!!!!

Hillary Rodham Clinton lied, cried, manipulated her way to loosing a campaign that was all designed for her to win. Now, she wants to soil our candidate who worked hard and tirelessly for every vote he got, with his team.

Everyone who is voting for Obama is for his personality and his hard work.

For the first time in a long time, Younger and older Americans are really feeling good for the same man, and his ideas: Obama and the Idea of Change, and all that he brings with it.

For all of the Hillary supporter: If the President "Bill Clinton" would lie when he was in the White House about Monica. What do you think his wife would do. Lie Too! She can't run her campaign nor her own house whole, "How in the world is she going to run the White House. Come on people wake up! Obama is going to be the nonimee for President.

Hillary Supporters…..

I love reading your comments saying that CNN and the media have a bias against Clinton….. heres the explanation why she is always in the news!

Clinton always seems to get into the news and why is that? The answer is is that she always surrounds herself with morons and says/does dumb things to get herself in the news. If Obama was as careless, the numbers might be different. Pennsyl. people are not idiots…. they have cable and they see her imploding.

Who is this pastor that people talk about? Hmmmmm….. a nobody, compared to her skeletons! The republicans will no doubt tear her apart if she is the nominee…. the only hope is to send someone with little to no experience and background in, because there will be nothing to pick on except his kindergarten work!

Also, Clinton has the name already, just like Rockefeller, Kennedy, etc (the Clinton name should not be lumped in with these names, but for example's sake!). Obama is running against her, her husband, her daughter, and the name.

No wonder he is spending 3 times as much….. he has to put his name out there with ads and a ground game, which costs money! He's running against a well-known name.

Oh yeah… "Chris"…. obviously this counrty needs a change from old Washington politics.

How many jobs did we lose last month?
How much the the Clintons make and how much is unaccounted for? Why did the Clintons file for an extension?
Why is she surrounding herself with people that talk with Columbia about free trade, when she is against it?
Why is Bush bullying Congress to enact free trade with Columbia?
How many laws has the current government/White House broken?

I think we need a change. Obviously we are lagging behind other countries. Obviously there is a problem when we are borrowing money from Mexico and China to just keep running.

Hello all you oblivious people! Please get your head out of the sand and wake up!

Go Hillary!! You are ahead despite being outspend by more than 4 to 1 and despite the incredible media bias against you and in favor of Obama.
This woman can do it all!! She is a truly historic candidiate.
You Go Girl !!!!!!

I rarely see intelligent posts by either camp. But some of you Obama people are truly brainwashed. I love the comments that just say "Yes WE CAN!" … you can what exactly? "CHANGE!" … okay.. please explain..Time 4 Change writes: "Change isn't change until we've change! OBAMA in "08″ " uh… okay.. or you've got the other idiots saying they hate Hillary and Bill. Believe me, if there were no Obama, you'd love the Clintons and direct your hate at McCain. Look, I've no serious qualms with either candidate, but I can't see aligning myself with all these nimrods.

GOD BLESS REV WRIGHT! HES THE BEST! OBAMA 08!

those of you who believe in Hillary must like being lied too. Or you are in the same group as her, the wealthy, hypocritical old stuffed shirts that blow smoke and cant except change. Why do we need another lieing scandle filled politician in the Whitehouse.

Sadly, John Edwards is not still in the race. He is a far better candidate than Clinton or Obama and would have beaten McCain hands down. Now the Democrats must chose between two of the worst candidates since Dukakis. With the war in Iraq, the failing economy and the most serious threat of all, global warming, the thought of another war mongering Republican in the white house is too scary to think about.

It's time for Hillary Clinton to bow out gracefully and not wait until the Democratic Party kicks her out. She is destroying the Party by her stubborness and her over inflated ego. Figures.

OBAMA 08! MORE WHITE CHICKS TO DATE! VIVA OBAMA!

ITS SAD BILL RICHARDSON AND THE AA COMMUNITY BACK STABBED HILLARY HER AND BILL DID SO MUCH TO HELP YOU. OBAMA SUPPORTERS HAVE SO MUCH HATRED.

Why are you only talking about the polls you want to talk about, CNN?

Anyone who watches the polls knows that the LATEST polls show Barack and Clinton DEAD EVEN (45%/45%) in PA!

Obama is trying to BUY the nomination. He has outspent Clinton 4 to 1. I find it amazing that Sen. Clinton has been able to remain so strong despite Obama's vast outspending of her and the media's constant negative attacks on Sen. Clinton. It is a true testament to her strength as a candidiate that she is still leading when Obama has the money and media advantage in this race.

It is just a matter of time until Osama is exposed for his criminal Rezco. Wander how much of his funds are from drug money? Just wait till the repubs break the Larry Sinclair story, that has nothing to do with Hillary. And just remember you little osama worshipping punks, when it does happen, your guy is exsposed for who he really is, the DNC can drop him like a hot potato at ANYTIME. So don't go counting your chips before the cards are all on the table. Also, we Hillary people will vote McCain no matter what, because we care about our country more than anything, unlike you American-Hating, Anti-Christ loving race-card playing mtv watching ghetto criminal, drug heads. Just wait till McCain picks his running mate, he will walk all over your drug head homosexual poor excuse of a candidate. He has too many ties to the enemies of America for the CIA to let him near the office.

If Obama outspends Hillary 4:1 on ads in PA, then any narrowing of the margin between the two means nothing!

Those Obama supporter will feel sorry one day if he becomes the nominee.

When the phone rings at 3:00am will it be from the pregnant woman who cannot get care, a warning about sniper fire or someone asking about more support for NAFTA?

Roger, which country in africa you are from?
I hope it is not Zambia (where we had Chiluba, better orator than Obama and messed up the nation, economically as well as morally) or Zimbabwe (less written more said…the nation is in news at the moment and any reader can read..what Bob Mugable, the old hug has done to once great nation).

i agree with you 100%. Obama is incarnation of Luos of Kenya who went on rampage once they lost (or deprived of) elections in Kenya three months back.

Americans, listen to us africans, and don't be pawn in the hands of "interest groups who want to finish once and for all — ?????"

hillary or McCain for 2008. time will come for muntus and mwenes and yellow brothers and spanish brothers but let muzungus clear the mess created by them.

I find it insane that Hillary supportors think that Obama supportors are rude. You rarely see one of us screaming in all caps or vowing to vote for McCain if our candidate doesn't get the nomination.

It seems to me that her supporters are just as nasty and spiteful as she is. Come on people… Look at what she believes in. Do you think it's anywhere near what McCain stands for? Do you think that is what she'd want her followers to do? Do you think she wants to destroy the Democrat's ability to get in the WH?

Take the blinders off, support your candidate and stop being so nasty!

Obama 08

Thank you to Joe American. We do live in America afterall and not the UK

Buying the Presidency.

I guess that's the best Obama can do.

PA can see through this and we'll see by how much Hillary WINS comes April 22.

Hip Hip Horaay!!!!!!!

Hillary MIGHT still win Pennsylvania, but it won't be a blow out. And thats the end for her. Even just to make some sort of dent in delegates she would need to win by more then Ten points, and a blow out would be 12-15 points. This will not happen.
Obama will then win North Carolina by at least ten points and Finally Hillary will step aside so the healing can begin for the march to November. : )

Nice to see the people of PA are starting to listen. Everyone knows that it is a "machine" state. All the big wigs of the machine with the exception of Sen Casey are backing Hillary because that's the way the machine works.
But the PEOPLE want change.
Go PA!! Show that you can think and vote according to YOUR wishes!

re: nanc April 8th, 2008 12:13 pm ET

My comment was more against the Clinton camp than against older white women.
I was commenting on how the Clintons always move the goalposts to make her campaign look stronger. "If this were the electoral college, Hillary would win. If we only counted the big states…If only white women were allowed to vote…"
Nothing against you and yours. I am proud you are able to see through the whole white v. black, man v. woman thing.

Creative Woody…….what have you been smoking. Hillary will not win in November. GUARANTEED! As long as she keeps talking she will slowly lose her supporters. HER LIES ARE SINKING HER SHIP! BIG TIME! Hey Hillary keep up the lies….your doing a great job of killing your campaign! HA HA!!

WHAT IS THE DEFINTION OF INSANITY-KEEP DOING THE SAME "OLD" THING BUT EXCEPTING A DIFFERENT RESULT. THIS WHAT A VOTE FOR HILLARY CLINTON WOULD BE INSANITY. HER CAMPAIGN HAS BEEN NEGATIVE. WE NEED SOMEONE WITH "NEW" IDEAL WHO WANTS TO MAKE A CHANGE BY NOT USING THE "OLD" YESTERDAY CAMPAIGN MENTALITY.

OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT!

Even if she wins Pennsylvania, she is already defeated. Although Hillary would have you believe that she are not retreating — but in fact she is advancing in another direction. Hillary will be defeated not by Obama, but rather by herself. It would almost be impossible for Hillary to make a comback with "dignity."

Jorge, The last I heard, McCain has one son serving in Iraq and another about to be deployed. Any more stupid comments?

Thank you Joe ! If we elect Clinton a total of 26 years of Bush/Clinton… since when do we have a Monarchy?

Obamacult is doing well in PA?

Obama tied to a hateful racist church….poll numbers go up.

White people should do what the blacks do and vote skin color only.

if you are white and vote for Obama you get exactly what you deserve. Only a moron white would vote for a black nationalist socialist.

OBAMA => No Experience, exits all wars = chaos around the globe
promising everything to everyone will not make anyone happy…

OBAMA => Same racist minister for 20 years, hates white people and jews, hates America.

Obama => Helped direct funds to wife's emplyer as Senator, tripled her salary. Tony Resko, etc.

Obama => Said his opinion was basically just like George Bush in 2004.

Obama => A wannabe…never attended any meeting on subcommittee.

Obama => No economic experience….A fatal error….

I'm can see Hillary Clinton kicking and screaming at the convention like a 5 year old spoiled brat that just dropped her ice cream cone once she finds out that she's not gonna be the nominee.

Obama 08

The Washington Post reported that the hospital story told to Senator Clinton by a Deputy Sheriff is true according to family memebers of the woman who died. Seems like Clinton was not lying after all – how come this doesn't get reported. MSNBC had it on Morning Joe. But you people in the media want everyone to believe the worst about her. For God's sake, her taxes were paid and you still can't stop talking about the returns. What is the problem with their joint return?
Lots of people in this country make money. I hope you all get your Obama and have to live with the consequences.

Roger, Africa – if you feel that way about it, I would not object if you nominate her for president in YOUR country. We sure won't mind. oh, and please take Bush and Bill with her, please.

Hillary outspent in PA.? Where o' where could she get a few million dollars? If she had disclosed her 2007 tax return, we might have the answer. The 110 million dollars earned from 2000 to 2006 is apparently just not available to her campaign. I guess it's Bill's. Also, all the Clinton "charitable" contributions went to the Clinton Foundation, thank you. Very convenient. Stand by your man, HRC. There arebetter models for American women (and Emily's list) to support. America needs a truthful, intellectually honest President: Mr. Obama.

Dems have a compulsive liar and an extreme liberal racist (who also lies) as candidates. As an independent, this party doesn't support anything I stand for.

with enough money… hitler could get elected.

man as an induvidual is smart. people are dumb.

Buying the presidency is not the way to go. That worries me. Obama spending so much, if it were a level $$$ field would he still be in the race. Bus h was the flashy newcomer in 2000 and look what happened there. Please do not vote like a high school election—based on who is "cool" and popular, but who is better suited for the job. Bosnia was a bad one, but she is feeling the heat from the "cool" dude. I still would rather her in there than another unknown. Maybe in four to eight years Obama can prove his worth and make a great president. We just cannot afford to roll the dice on another popular but inexperienced candidate again.

To say that Obama has gained on Clinton because he has outspent her is completely disingenous. If money spent were the key wouldn't Mitt Romney be the Republican nominee?

Throw all the money you want in a campaign. At the end of the day, the American people have to like you and your message must reverbate with the voters.

You know– Hllary puts herself on the line so much more than Obama. I respect that immensely. Why doesn't Obama have the guts to speak out on the Olympics controversy??- Either way? Why doesn't Obama bother to sit down in front of Gen. Petreaus and Crocker and grill them about Iraq like Hillary did this morning? Oh right, he's too busy working the catwalk….

Sheesh.

Put things into perspective, people!

Alright, I've had it up to here with this. NAFTA was a dirty trick pulled on Obama by Hillary and Bill, why isn't that out there???? I demand answers as an American!!!!

I am not going to vote for Obama under any circumstance. He is short-sighted and used by media barons, self-interest groups and cannot see that taking over empty coffers and a number of political issues (war in Iraq, china coming out as a major challenge to american's world leadership, health, jobs, recession, deficit, divided nation, low productivity, high crime and low morals among americans in general and "muntus" in particular….list is endless). If he fails…he gives all the reasons to "muzungus" to say…."See, we told you, muntus cannot manage a nation". He is out to put visible minorities cause backward by 100 years.
time is not ripe. Let Hillary or McCain sort out and face all the problems. I would have loved him to be number two and not face all the challenges. yes, come on, some of my brothers and sisters from africa and asia (muntus and mwenes) will say..it is out turn and we can face challenges..don;t underrate us etc… But I truly wish he goes in oval office and then the music will start…

Hillary and McCain for 2008.

Democrats have two left feet, crossed over each other, and can't seem to stop shoot themselves right in the middle of both of them..

To all the Clinton supporters. Dont bash Obama supporters for the same thing you do. Isnt that…"The pot calling the kettle black"???

Fact: Obama has run a outstanding campaign with very little distruptions. He manages his campaign money effeciently. He believes, as do Millions of Americans, white, black and brown. that it is time for change. We ALL have suffered, that we can be unified in.

It has been duely noted that "you can tell how well a candidate well serve after elected by the way he/she runs his/hers campaign. "

with that said:
Hillary has finacial problems, doesnt pay her bills, campaign has not gone smoothly, she has not on alot of things that matter to all of us been truthful.

Fact: Canadians apologized to Sen Obama for "mistakenly" subsituting his name for Sen Clintons. Goggle it!!!

Fact: Mark Penn did meet with the Columbian Gov on March 31st.
Columbian goverment fires Mark Penn, for his "error in judgement" comment. Had paid him $300,000, in March 2007, to help push this deal through.
Sen. Clinton "demotes" him, alothough he is still very much active within the campaign.
Sen. Clinton claims she has dealt appropiately with this "conflict" of interest.
Accuses Sen Obama of not dealing with his unpaid aide on the Canada NAFTA blunder, cept he ( the aide) didnt do anything. Nothing to be dealt with. Hope you Googled it!!

Now you be the judge

VOTE RESPONSIBLY APRIL 22nd

Jan: "Remember Penn is not over run with black voters."

Wow Jan…I am guessing you are a white woman. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and to feel they way they feel… It's just too bad the way you worded it…Basing your vote on a person because she is a woman or a white woman is wrong…look at her character. My vote shouldn't be based on Obama because he is black man and I am a black woman. I judge by character. No I don't agree with everything Obama stands for, you can only have the perfect candidate in a perfect world. Race and Gender shouldn't play a part in people's decision. Which tells me JAN…YOUR IGNORANCE IS SHOWING. Your parents must to idiots as well.

ROGER – If you live in Africa, no disrespect but you have NO ROOM to talk about us ruining our country. lead us by example please. then maybe your opinion will count. Thank you.

PA wake up and say no to this terrible woman. How can she be a role model to your kids with all this lies?
PA please help us end this madness.
Obama has to win in PA to end this race.

Keep chipping away at that lead! We need a president who will actually look out for the morals and beliefs for our children. This race honestly ended when she didnt win more delegates in Texas and when she was suppost to win by large margins in order to stay in per her own husbands words. She did neither and unless its a huge win for Clinton in PA this race should be over unless once again Hillary can not do the math and continues to destroy the Democratic party. Anything under a double digit spread will be a win for Obama.

Obama 08

OBAMA Does Not Need to win PA- for God's sake

Hillary can have her PA- but she better have it like 85% win- then only she can beat Obama's delegates

What's so strange with some of us DEMS is we are saying "No Hillary, then it's McCain or "No O'bama, then it's McCain. Are we really DEM's. If so, whomever wins the nod then we should go with them. But most of Hillary supporters say they won't vote for O'bama ( but alot of O'bama's people would vote for Hillary) but instead they will vote for McCain. Seems
to me that it's more hatred and prejuidice then anything. Shame, Shame.

why no mention of the usa survey putting her 18 points ahead as of today? typical CNN.

it's sad to see how people are quick to judge hillary and brand her as a liar. All of you suckers that have never lied in your life or told a wrong tale, cast the first stone.
PLEASE give me a break and you guys need to listen to obama and his big headed wife. l am black, but dont trust him. he want the throne handed to him on a silver platter.
Grow up people and all the funky obama–maniacs talking crap, should go check out their facts. l dont care who wins, but l do care about the economy and healthcare. l know HILLARY will get the job done and she LOVEEEEEEEEEEEEEEES her country unlike the wright loving whinner OBAMA.

Clinton will win by 8 pts. in PA. The confettti will fall , she'll declare victory in vain and now comes NC… it will be a done deal…Obama double digits…more "super " delegates endorse Obama and Hillary camp realizes she still needs to be electable in 2012 and oh! snap her senate career…."better quit while were ahead"…Hill is done.

99% of these comments are a sad commentary on the effect teacher's unions have had on this country…..

As the next primaries come up if Hillary Wins again in all the Big states this will show strong support for winning in the fall against McCain in the main election. Hillary has done a lot for New York as a Senator and has a record of making difficult decisions.

Obama has not won any of the larger major states. He may not be the Best choice for winning in the fall election. This will ultimately play out by the convention.

Obama cannot just show up Present, as President, the way he votes in his state legislation. He does not show the ability to make difficult decisions accept regarding civil right issues. Obama doesn’t even stand up for having all the votes count for Michigan and Florida a simple decision for the rights of all American citizens in this election.

The gap between the great liars is closing. What a sorry couple of candidates. Surely they are not the best the USA has to offer.

Why is PA a crucial state if Hillary has no shot at winning, as the media and Obama supporter are alleging?

Because she does have a shot and her opponents are scared silly that she might actually win.

thank you whites and i as a puerto rican will show the black people WHAT LOYALTY MEANS AND I AND MY FAMILY LIKE MILLIONS OF OTHER PUERTO RICANS AND WHITES WILL VOTE FOR CLINTON, YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES WHO STICK TOGETHER AND YALL DID THAT JUST BECAUSE THE COLOR OF HIS SKIN, AND WHEN HE INJECTED RACE INTO THIS RACE IN SOUTH CAROLINA ACTING LIKE HILLARY DID IT, JUST LIKE IN THE PAST SLAVERY DAYS YALL SOLD YOURSELVES TO THE WHITE MAN. AND HERES A NEWSFLASH FOR YOU WHAT HAS OBAMA SAID THAT HE WILL DO FOR YOU? NOTHING THATS RIGHT, HE'LL JUST BE YOUR TOKEN

Isn't it amazing that everyone seems to forget Obama's lies & mis-speaks and racist learning for 20 years. Like he never heard Wright speech, then he did, once he got caught. And he calls him his mentor, but of course that's forgotten. How he voted wrong by mistake. OOOPS there goes the bomb , didn't mean to push that button. Isn't it a shame that you have to spen 4 times as much money to get your message across. Wonder how fair that is? HMMM. If they were given equal time on the air, who would be ahead. He's a good speaker but check out his voting record in IL also. Words don't get it, actions do.

Chris from San Antonio – Thanks for saying what I wanted to say to Jan the Racist. I love you just for saying it!!

just another illustration of how Americans TYPICALLY vote for the one who spends the most money. It is not the message but the ad campaign that has Obama surging.

Remember, stop voting for the machine! Vote THIRD PARTY to save our country.

Good – Go Obama!!!
Could it have something to do with Hillary's three stories?
How I saved the Norhern Ireland Peace -
How I dodged bullets in Kosovo -
and the new Death and Pregnancy in Ohio -???

Exactly, out with the Bushes and Clintons, and in with some change. America is absolutely sick over the political games that are played in a time when American families are dealing with a failing economy and a never ending war. Just because Hilary wants to change Bushes policies doesn't make her the one for the job. Her sense of entitlement is unbelievable. (The Clintons should be the one's to SAVE the country, scary!) 2/3 of America wants change from the Bush Regime and she sees this a support for her. Well it is definitely not. She says some good things at times, but she also lies at times. OR shoud I say "mispeaks" at times. Obama's message is clear and it is resonating with America. Lets see if enough people in Pennsylvania has been listening with open ears.

It is so sad to watch the news and be able to tell who the news reporters are campaigning for. I can remember when reporters just reported the news, and were not in the business of trying to solicit votes for any one particular candidate–everything is so political. People should just vote their conscience–If you have the mind and the courage, vote your conscience–no one but you will ever no.

Obama is gaining? I didn't realize there were that many cable news "journalists" in Pennsylvania.

Go Hillary!

Roger, Africa-Thank you so much for confirming why Senator Clinton should be our next President.

Go Senator Clinton!

Well, she's still 6 points ahead..don't count her out yet.

He's got stuff in his closets, that I'm sure..be careful America!

"michigan and florida were all about name recognition. they voted for a name they knew and nobody knew obama. OBAMA HAD TO OVERCOME THIS AT THE START OR HE WOULD NOT BE IN THE POSITION HE IS IN"

If the primary was held now, Hillary would not win. Latest polls put her a couple points behind Obama..

Of course Michigan isn't having a do over. But her continued claim of winning Michigan (my state) is a joke. It was before the people got to know Obama, he didn't campaign here and he wasn't even on the ticket like Hillary was. Then to top it off, you can't do write in for candidates in Michigan primarys.

Kind of hard not to win a state when your'e running against yourself.

Chris from San Antonio and all Obama’s delusional supporters:

Most states having significant African American population were won by Obama where African Americans voted for him 80-90% (except NY and NJ). It is a matter of fact. If some points that out how does it become racism?

And how does it work for you guys? You listen to Obama’s “uplifting speeches,” get high, and start dumping trash on the Internet. College-educated people are supposed to be Obama’s core constituents. But looking at these blogs, it looks like either the college education is not helping much in turning them into decent human beings or Obama’s “uplifting speeches” have balanced out all the good that a college education may have brought to them.

CNN, shame on you for posting all the garbage in world on the Internet and not posting reasonable comments.

God Bless America!

I am not voting for Obama and it has nothing to do with his race either. I just happen to believe that the major problems we are having right not has to do with national debt and the war, and I like Hillary Clintons ideas better for fixing them both.

Everyone else seems to see that it is over for Hitlery why can't she? She can't even win mathematically. It's uncertain now what it is exactly she is trying to prove. It's just past her time and DEFINATELY past McCains time. Obama is young and intelligent. He has a young family and has the ability to identify with the greater majority of Americans. It is Obama's time. It's time for change. It's time for hope. It's time to bring the American Dream back to Americans and America. God Bless.

HILLARY SUPPORTERS (those of you who will vote McCain, even if Obama wins nom) – Let me ask this: Why not just REVOTE BUSH into office? You claim it's EXPERIENCE you want in the WH. Bush has been President longer than any of the candidates. If experience matters then vote him back in office.

To most Americans, it matter what a official will DO once in office. What decisions will be made that really affects our lives. I for one liked the CLINTONS, but they have proved over and over to be divisive and the lie quite a bit more than both McCain and Obama. I don't support them on a trust issue more than anything else. I just don't see how voting out of SPITE will bring any improvements in America.

That's pretty sad when white voters "Don't trust Whitey" anymore.
DrFill

If this is really the case, then we all should thank CNN for its tremendous and valuable help given solely to the Obama campaign and biased reporting!

So what if people who work for oil companies donated money to him…..It is not the same as accepting money from lobbyiest! You American's seems to have selective amnesia when it comes to the Clinton and all their scandal past and present. You all are harping on the Rev Wright and Rezko thing because thats all you can bring…….Dont think for one minute that the Republicans wouldn't pull out all the stops to cream HIllary and possibly end her political career as we know it…….Her and her husband, right along with Ed Rendell and Ickes are all career criminals and deserve to be behing bars sharing a cell with Karl Rove.

Marion Jones lies under oath about taking steroids and she gets six months, Bill does the same and he gets pardoned and people pay him to speak……..? So much for Americans having morals and values

Only in America the Clintons would be allowed to run for any public office and still have viability after all the scandal and illegal dealings they brought to their administration…..

The media and these so called Christine condem a man for giving a sermon they disagree with while choosing to ignore the fact that this man scarificed his life for a country that at that time was discriminating agaisnt his people and you have cowards like Bill Clinton, Bush and Cheney who used family connections to get out of being drafted and you all have the nerve to questions someones patriotism……..

For the record with all this hatred and all these people who would rather be broke, with no home and no job and to be drafted in the military then vote for a black man, you will get what you deserve.

For the record John McCain has said that his number one priority is to rebuild the military because enough American's aren't volunteering….If you think the draft wont be reinstated, you wait and see!

. . .More and more voters are actually learning what NAFTA
is, and who is responsible for it. (And it sure as heck isn't Rev. Wright.)

Michael-NYC

that website really looks like a credible news source. Thats called sarcasm.

folks imagine first lady Michalle who loves this country.
and why CNN does not have ticker for washington post's news about Clinton did not lie about hospital story.

Roger Africa,please show me how Hillary has more experience than Obama. Going to cocktail parties as first lady really doen't help one gain meaningful experience. Obama has actually held elected office longer than Clinton. Furthermore Clintons claim of taking care of business as first lady has been debunked. Get a grip on reality and check your facts.

Once again, Obama is using smoke and mirrors, and millions in advertising expenditures, to bamboozle the American public into believing what he says … rather than who he really is … and rather than what he's actually done. And, the scary thing is that millions of Americans are actually believing it! The faces of Obama's audiences have that euphoric vacant look, like you find on the faces of religious congregations who have totally relinquished reason for faith. If you look at old newsreels of nazis listening to Hitler you can also see that euphoric mindless expression.

It's about time that people do their homework vs. letting the press make their decisions for them. The bottom line is that the Clinton's supported NAFTA, which should be a key issue in PA.

Secondly, Rev. Wright's sermon was simply a quote from an interview given by Edward Peck, Former US Chief of Mission in Iraq–who by the way is a white male over 60. His message is this, US foriegn policy is bad and this is why 9/11 happened. Instead of making your decision based on 15 second media segments you should go to youtube and watch the entire version of Rev. Wright's sermon and then listen to interviews given my Edward Peck to form your own decisions.

Then educate yourself on Hillary's past scandals that date back to Arkansas. Hillary will say anything to get votes. When her lies are revealed she spins or downplays them.

Obama 08′.

FOR JAN; wHAT DOES PENN NOT BEING OVER RUN BY AA VOTERS GOT TO DO WITH IT? THERE IS NO BLACK OR WHITE PRICE AT THE GAS PUMPS…..THERE IS NO BLACK OR WHITE CANCER…THERE IS JUST CANCER.. SO I GUESS THAT IF GOD TURNS OUT TO BE BLACK..,…YOU'RE IN TROUBLE!!!!!

This only goes to prove the Public is a lot smarter than the Clintons think.

Clinton will win PA, period, all you Clinton Haters are so funny.

Americans, it's verry simple,

"The smile is the mirror of the soul".

Look at your 3 candidate's smile and you know that
Barack Obama is the only one with a real smile.

He will be respected in the whole world, by cristians and muslims.
.
America, end your wars and try something different, make peace!
When Bush is over America and the world can make a new start.

Now is the time for change!

Obama is the one who can bring that change!

Ted van Tol
The Netherlands.

Americans have a saying " if it aint broke why fix it " I think it is broken now and needs fixing.

How is Obama even competing with Hillary, a much more qualified candidate?

As if it comes as a surprise that men wlll rally around Obama?
In alot of instances, they would rather see ANY man elevated to president over a woman.

The American people are through with smoke screens and rock star candidates.. or are they?

Oh wait, that is why our culture has made reality shows popular.
We are not voting in the next American Idol.. its called The Presidency.

Wake up people!

Obama cannot stand up to the nasty Republicans!

HILLARY 08!

there is not a chance Clinton will win this primary. she has to beat obama with 30 % in all the remaining states to have more pledged delegates than him. the only possibility is if she beat him in the popular vote. The super delegates will decide this either way, and it's going to be extremly difficult for them to vote for her if she hasn't won:

popular vote

states

pledged delegates

This election is over, and I think Clinton should toss in the towel before this creates a larger gap between democrats than it allready has. And a beg you all: stop the mud-slinging on the candidate you don't support. I think Clinton would be a great president. But Obama would be a better one.

There is no reason to vote for Hillary! She lies, she tries to be funny, and doesn't have any timing or humor, Bill lied, Chelsea won't answer tough questions, basically saying "It is none of your business" If you pay close attention, you can see that Hillary is not a honest, genuine person. I'm not saying Obama is perfect by any means, but it really does come down to who would you be most comfortable sitting down and having a beer with, and Obama would be the absoluet front runner.

and get a good VP candidate , somebody like Powell.

OBAMA AND ODINGA

Everyone in the United States has heard of former First Lady Hillary Clinton. Obama has to spend 4 times as much to get his name out there. There are still a lot of people who have never heard him speak and don't know anything about him. The more they know, the more they give him their support and their vote. If it takes 4 times as much, so be it. We supporters are continuing to give what we can when we can. I've contributed $25 a month for about 5 months in a row. I will continue to support his campaign.

This site is so pro Obama.

All politics aside, i really love election time in the US since it puts my alma mater in the national spotlight. Quinnipiac is a really awesome university for those of you who don't know; you should check it out!

ps. GOBAMA!

In my country. This is crazy that Obama is not ready to be president. I don't understand why Hillary is being treated so badly. I think Hillary should be president of the United States of America.

People are seeing more and more that Obama is our only hope for change in this country where everything is so out of whack. For too long we have been headed in the wrong direction and we are all suffering because of it. It is time for change and a new direction. Never before has America been so excited about an election and it is because of the hope and coming together that Obama stands for. We will all stand to benefit when we start working together and quit the political bashing and government control. It is not surprising that those states yet to hold primaries are abadoning Clinton and throwing their support behind Obama. Americans are pretty smart people!

This is great news for the Republicans as the democrats will elect someone that will have a very hard time winning in the General election. Why you may ask?

NOBAMA will ruin the economy by punishing business by raising taxes
NOBAMA will attempt to double the size of government from the taxes received.
NOBAMA base is primarily unemployed that haven't had to pay taxes on a regular basis, and who rely primarily on handouts from government, thankfully the majority of voters work for a living and know the pain of paying taxes.
NOBAMA is a friend of William Ayers
NOBAMA is a friend of Rezko
NOBAMA is a friend of Rev. Wrigth
NOBAMA has NOBAMA Experience, just dreamy speeches with NOBAMA solutions
NOBAMA is just recently for the first time become proud of being an American
NOBAMA will ruin the economy with higher taxes
NOBAMA has shown he is a little light on being a Patriot.
NOBAMA will be yellow and retreat from the many hard fought gains in Iraq.
OSAMA wants NOBAMA to win so he can gain access to oil reserves and have the military might to really go after us in the future.

All I can say as a Republican small businessman that hates the idea of having to layoff my staff if NOBAMA increases my taxes is Mr. and Mrs. NOBAMA bring it on.

We don't need a speechwriter we need a Problem solver and we need a Patriot during this serious time of our history.

If you don't think Osama these are serious times,just ask OSAMA or turn on your nightly news.

Does it have anything to do with huge number of republlicans who switched to dem party "just out of devotion for Obama?" I really don't think anything really changed with the contenders profile within the last one week. As some other blogger pointed out, what is really "fading?" . This is the typical media innuendo aginst Hillary we always complain about. I guess she should just drop out and go as independent in November. This way they cannot claim that she damaged Dem election process.

I hope voters in Pennsylvania wake up and smell what Hillary Clinton is concocting, as she campaigns in your state. She wants to succeed in pulling the wool over your eyes on her real position on NAFTA. I encourage you not to buy into Hillary Clinton's shell game. She has played this game, before on voters in Ohio and Texas. Her senior advisors made big money from Columbia and she says she is against it. These Columbian trade deal revelations and not knowing that Hillary Clinton was a very strong advocate for NAFTA, contrary to what she was telling everyone on the campaign trail, should be an eye opener about Hillary Clinton.

. . .Senator Obama is always giving brilliant explanations of his plans. If people
continue to ignore him (Ignorant by choice), then he's an empty suit to you, no matter what he says.

I'm for change so I'm for Obama. I don't know how Obama will bring about change, but he says he's for change, I'm for change, so that's good enough for me. But whatever change Obama is for, I am for it because I'm for change, I hope it's not bad change, that wouldn't be good, but I am for good change, whatever that may be, so I'm hoping Obama brings change, good change, not bad change.

Obama in 08, hopefully good change, but even if it's bad change I'm for change!

The media is biased about everything…..until we change how the media thinks and acts only then will change come about. Politics is a vicious negative driving animal and the media plays off of this at every turn……oh wait I mean they run stuff according to how much money is coming in for that air space!!!!!!

Advertisements definitely play a major roll. Clear picture of the issues offered by candidates attracts the people to determine who to vote for. The personality of a candidate and consistency of speeches about what they commit is 'The most important factor' who finally the people shall choose to vote for. By now People have already learnt, race, gender or religeon is not the factor anymore (some media people still trying to highlight these factors unnecessarily).
So, it is not surprising Hillary is loosing her support. It is surprising if still she is holding supports among 'The Women and Olders'. I'm pretty sure, just knowing the few lies she did those she was caught, they will realize all commitments she is making today may become lies once she will be in power.

I'm amazed at America. You people are crazy. Hillary is destroying her own campaign by lying…excuse me "mis-speaking" and making poor decisions (Mark Penn) and what our your reasons for the shift in the polls? "He's outspending her"

Give me a friggin break! Perhaps the voters in PA are starting to see the desperation and crumbling campaign of Hillary.

You people are crazy!!!

Hillary 08′ 12′

If not Hillary, then McCain!

These people are taking the same path as Joe Lieberman. You should stop, take a deep breath, and think about that. You wouldn't want that on your conscience. Just think about voters of Bush.

Haven't you used this headline every day for a week or more? If you can't come up with something new…why not revert back to your old tricks and twist the headlines compared to the subject matter!.!

I think you should actually read a dictionary and get the definition of fading. The article is correct in saying she is fading as her lead has dwindled from double digits or over 20 points to now single digits or about 6 or 7 points. Wont you call that fading or are lets see narrowed, dwindled, shrunk better terms for you????

That just shows that the Pennsyltuckians also are finally seeing her for what she is. A liar, say anything to win, dirty handed politician.
If you Hillary lovers want her involved in politics so bad, take her, we in upstate N.Y. never wanted her to begin with.

Obama will be once in our life time president. He is the person who can united us and will be the greatest president ever in USA.

Obama cheerleaders,
You have to open your eyes. your guy is a fake.
There is nothing in his mind about uniting and bringing together people. Not with his comments of 'typical white person" on one side and his constant justification of his pastors preaching and believes.
We need a President who is going to be proud of this country and people that make this country great.

Haven't you used this headline every day for a week or more? If you can't come up with something new…why not revert back to your old tricks and twist the headlines compared to the subject matter!

MR. OBAMA MAY BE CHIPPING AWAY AT SENATOR
CLINTON'S LEAD, BUT IN THE END, SENATOR CLINTON
WILL WIN. SHE IS THE ONLY TRUE CANDIDATE ABLE TO
LEAD THIS COUNTRY. MR. OBAMA IS NOTHING BUT WORDS,
AND SENATOR MC CAIN IS NOT REALLY ONE TO LEAD.

Liz W.
You are correct!
I urge everyone in Pa to read the FACTCHECK.ORG article on Obamas claim not to take money from lobbiests.
Read it and decide if you accept this claim o f not taking money from lobbiests

Thank you Chris and Roger from Africa – Hillary Clinton should be the next President. CNN, NBC – whose Today Show keeps interviewing Obama (thanks for giving him all the free publicity) before every primary and MSNBC – keep pushing Obama for all they're worth….what kind of stake do they have in this? This is not objective reporting….a man with NO – that means ZERO experience who says nothing more than talk about change and I was against the war – ZERO experience…..would you hire him to run your company with ZERO experience? I think not….why on earth would you hire him to run our country??? He keeps making foolish, novice mistakes….he's a neophyte for heaven's sake. McCain will win if he gets the nomination.

What's soooo wrong with my comments?
Go Hillary!!!!! Undecideds always go for her inthe end!!!!! that should double her lead…..
Hillary supporters…GO AND DONATE TO HER WEB SITE!!!!!!!

. . .It is about time that voters and media outlets realize that
Senator Obama's lead has nothing to do with his race, no matter how much some wish it were true. Can we please stop trying to revive that dead horse.

Outspent? Maybe because Obama has control over his campaign and doesn't overpay out of control managers partying at his expense. His campaign is focused on a goal and not self dealing for personal gain. Obama has money to spend because he has run his campaign so well just like he will run this country.

Read the Clinton Chronicles on Google:

We need an honest President!

ENOUGH SAID!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

These polls do NOT take into account the large number of blue-collar males who've made it clear in Ohio and other states that they DO NOT want to vote for Obama…..

remember that

I think Obama would end up winning Pennsylvania by 49% to 45%. Who would bet?

Obama and his supporters can continue to throw millions more dollars at the voters than Clinton, but it will not change the end result. Americans simply can't be bought. And yes, he may have more funds to be sure he can get every single vote he can muster to the polls, but he still can't manage to get a majority. And those of us that support Clinton won't be silenced. He may have might on his side, but we have right.

CNN, give Hillary a break. It is soooo obvious who you are backing, and these articles regarding Hillary, and how she's falling way behind are not accurate. This is a neck/neck race, but the way your journalists are relaying it, is just subtle influence to not vote for Hillary, because she is losing very badly. I used to respect CNN. I thought it was a neutral, non bias network, but I am very wrong. Stop bullying her! Get a grip, and just report the facts, not the opinions of your journalists!

I am a strong Democrate, Iwill never vote for a radical person to be in the white house! Obama outspends Hillary because of move-on.org and other hate sites, they run the empty suit, Obama and his radical pastor are hypocrites of the worst kind, I have already started to get dems to vote rep in Nov, We will not be bought by the false Obama,like some msm, But then Obama supporters refuse to follow the dots, to who is really behind his campaign! It would be funny, if it wasn't so sad!

CNN continues to distort the polling information. the ARG poll (4/5-6 shows a tie at 45% each and Insider Advantage (4/2) shows Clinton up only 45-42. These are the three most recent polls and CNN picks the one with the largest Clinton lead. Why?

I am an older white woman in Georgia. Sure do hope the older white women in other States wake up. I think many are voting for her just because she is a woman. You better take a good look at her before you vote. Why is Mark Penn any where near her campaign? Why does she want to mandate healthcare insurance and garnish the wages of voters already in financial trouble? Why did she lie on three separate occasions about Bosnia? She wants to increase Government size and spending, but doesn't say how we will pay for it. Does increased taxes sound good to you? I'm sorry, but I do not believe in amnesty for over 12 million illegal immigrants, she does. I never agreed with the war in Iraq, but you can't just pull out. I'm sorry that she and Bill have to survive on $44,000 per day. Hillary cannot be trusted.

Where do CNN get these POLLS. Check others and you will see the difference. CNN has been playing this game all along. That is why Obama has any lead beacuse the MEDIA makes him out to be the winner and some of the voters will always vote for who they think will win.

The number of Obama supporters are certainly strengthening in PA. I live in a conservative area (south central PA) and I'm seeing a huge increase in Obama yard signs and bumpers stickers. In fact, I've seen much more evidence of Obama supporters than Hillary by a ratio of about 3:1 (about 3 yard signs or bumperstickers for Obama compared with signs or bumperstickers for Hil). The Dems I've talked to who say they will support Hillary on the 22nd ALL agree that they will vote for Obama over McCain in the general election, should Obama be the one to win the nomination.

I'm voting for Obama April 22nd.

Once again CNN is an Obama shrill. How sad you silly Obama lovers believe this stuff. The new SUSA poll out this morning shows Clinton ahead of Obama by 18pts! SUSA has been the only accurate poll since the beginning of this primary. Hey did you Obama supporters hear that great little speech he gave on foreign policy yesterday…"I know you guys want me to pick a VP who knows a "bunch" of stuff, wow its reminds me of Bush speak. Oh and the part about how he's better on foreign policy cause he lived in Indonesia as a kid and saw poor people in Africa. Hey I've been to poor countries too! Maybe I can run for President. What a tool he is…this guy is in way over his head and it is starting to show.

Leadership qualities, ability to unite & motivate people, excite the youth (future) of this country, sound judgement, charming personality, a visionary, and full of youth and energy. Sounds like hallmarks of a great president. Time to get behind the winner. The one and only Barack Obama (08).

The strategy from the Obama campaign has been vey clear from the beginning. Use some no-name pollster research to show that Hillary is up by 15-20%. The reality would be more like under 10%. And most of it has been because of her "name recognition". Obama is a great orator and unfortunately nothing more – pure unadulterated words. And then as the election approaches they goad their supporters into believing he is the underdog. America for some reason is always in love iwth the underdog. He has surely benefitted from those labels – "underdog", "change washington", "ne wand improved" (what an oxymoron), "Change we can dream about and believe in" (vs reality that we can achieve). So this helps in the "get out the vote" efforts. Brilliant Strategy or should I say "strategery". And so as the real election date is upon us the true polls are used and the margins are with 3-5% and lo and behold the "comeback" kid did it again!! WooooHooo we are all happy and now lets go and do the "told ya" dance to all those garlic Noses and lets make sure the chickens come back to roost!!

The only score that counts is the final one. Obama chipped away at her leads in Texas and Ohio. But guess what? He still lost. And he's going to lose another big state with alot of electoral votes to Clinton. If the Democrats want to see President McCain, then Obama and Reverend Wright are their men.

As a Canadian very interested in the US presidential nominations, I am sorry to read that we have somehow let an American racist into our country to decry the candidacy of Senator Obama. I respectfully suggest your 'American In Canada"heads back down south him or herself. WE dont like your kind of people tainting our country!!

Liz W…its reported where he got it! From donations! Oh my god you people are ridiculous! Loose with dignity! I mean if you wanna list the lies ok….

Nafta she said she didnt support it! LIES
Bosnia sniper Fire….Lies
Small states dont matter…lies!
She cares about Mi and Fl….Lies
Northern Ireland….lies and this is just from the primaries shall we go back to when she was in office! yeah the 1st clinton got the 1st bush out but he also set the stage for the 2nd Bush lets list why shall we..

Whitewater….
Monica Lewinsky and others…
NAFTA…

do I need to go on! You people better be GLAD that Obama is Hillary's opponent and he decided to take the high road! If it wasnt for that she wouldnt have made it to super tuesday! You all need to realize that! I remember the Clinton years and if it wasnt for the dotcom BOOM there wouldnt be nothing to talk about!!!

Americans are awake this time and won't be fooled. I think they've been misled by crooked politicians one too many times. This time
"It's The Country Stupid".

Hillary has been lying many times and I wonder how her supporters are not getting the facts.

I'll keep trying…
Go Hillary!!!!! Undecideds always go for her inthe end!!!!! that should double her lead…..
Hillary supporters…GO AND DONATE TO HER WEB SITE!!!!!!!

Man Obama, You go!

After all, he is running against a CLINTON. a name who's the very symbol of the democratic party. Clinton during these primaries is like hearing Bush during the republican primaries. The only thing they got going for them is name recognition only.

We don't need another Bush nor do we need another Clinton. America doesn't rotate royal families.

When Hillary loses here in Pa. ,after enjoying a huge lead, she will have to drop out or look awfully foolish. We are not like Ohio. Obama will win this state later this month and again in November.—As we Steeler fans like to say " You can book it"

Pennsylvania will be a big win for Hillary Clinton. The Obama supporters are already trying to lower expectations by saying she has to win by 20% or she loses. I am sure if they were to get only 1% they would try to turn it into a win.

Last week you were citing a poll that had Obama ahead by two. Then your headline should be CLINTON WIDENS LEAD IN PA.

Stand firm Clinton supporters. We are here to stay and we are over 50%of the democratic voters.

In 1992 I was so happy, anticipating 8 years of Bill, 8 of Al Gore and then finally 8 of Hillary.

Why can't she just tell the truth?

Re NAFTA – All my relatives are Canadian and sent me the links to the Toronto Globe & Mail and the Star. It was Hillary's campaign who FIRST contacted the Canadian government with the "wink wink."

Then either a Canadian official or reporter, who was acquainted with the person from Obama's campaign, contacted him requesting a comment. This was on the front page of all the Canadian papers.

Why do our American papers print things over and over again that are not true?

Obama 08

CNN needs to present the facts about Hillary. She only re-titled Penn, not fired him. She had to have known what he was doing in Columbia. Maybe Obama is closing the gap in Pennsylvania not only because of the spending but because people are tired of Hillary's attacks which make her look unappealing.

Her core supporters will be with her all the way to the end of the fight! Nobody can deprive of the people's voting right, not even Obama and his frantic supporters!

well ole hill did it again turned everything around about penn and tried to put the spotlight on obama she says at least she did the right thing by getting rid of penn but obama said nothing about canada wrong she still has penn around she just took him out of the spotlight for now i think she sent penn to tell columbia to cool it till after the election then the media found out so she had to make it look good so she demoted him lie lie lie

I agree with michele from OH. I see the obamites as being a huge problem in this process, constantly creating a huge divide in the democratic party. and I have also noticed that many of these so-called educated people can't spell very well. This is a close race for both candidates, and I for one don't see the problem with deciding the race at the convention. After all, thats what the convention is for!

I have had enough! Obama fans are out of control. Read some of these comments. What are you, A bunch of middle school kids? Grow Up!!

Her core supporters will be with her all the way to the end of the fight! Nobody can deprive of the people's voting right, not even Obama's frantic supporters!

Debra said: Obama's health care plan is flawed because it doesn't cover adults also. Clintons health care plan is much better.
—————————————————————————–
Why couldn't she get the job done during the 8 years she was in charge of Health Care under Bill Clinton's reign, then? You can have the best "plans" in the world, but if you can't get the cooperation of others (being she's such a "fighter" and all – is it any wonder?), it won't do any of us one bit of good.

There is no way Obama is going to win in Penn, When the true polls
come out Penn voters are not that stupid. He can spend all the money he wants, but Hillary will still win.

She is a true a true American and people are going to vote for her
because she is the best to lead this country.

Remember Penn is not over run with black voters.

wow jan,
nice finishing sentence. how racist can you get.

"Two of Obama's bundlers are top executives at oil companies and are listed on his Web site as raising between $50,000 and $100,000 for the presidential hopeful."

This is out of how many million now? What percentage of his campaign contributions does this represent? Besides, are oil company workers not U.S. citizens too?

Mark Penn isn’t the only Hillary Rodham Clinton supporter on the wrong side of the Colombia trade agreement.

The Democratic-leaning advocacy firm the Glover Park Group, former home to Clinton campaign spokesman Howard Wolfson, signed a $40,000 per month contract with the government of Colombia in April of 2007 to promote the very agreement that Clinton now rails against on the presidential campaign trail.

Article from politico.com

The Pennsylvania polls are closer than you think.

The latest Rasmussen Reports telephone survey in Pennsylvania shows Clinton leading Barack Obama by just five percentage points, 47% to 42%. This was taken today……………….

April 8th, 2008 12:24 pm ET
Your comment is awaiting moderation. Of Course, It's for Hillary……..

Go Hillary!!!!! Undecideds always go for her inthe end!!!!! that should double her lead…..
Hillary supporters…GO AND DONATE TO HER WEB SITE!!!!!!!

. . . .This is a good sign that everyone in Pennsylvania is not ignorant.

I would not underestimate the influence Mark Penn has on Hillary.

first Kansas wins the championship and now this…I think it's going to be a good week. Barack Chaulk Jayhawk Go BO.

Man, this is unbelievable. There is a SUSA pool showing Hillary trouncing Golden Boy by 18% but CNN probably has no time to mention it… shameful.

I think that Hillary should be the next president of your country. I don't understand why Obama can even compete with Hillary when he has so little experience. You all look like you are going to end up making a very big mistake if Obama wins.

I am a young, educated, white woman who will vote for Hillary and not for Obama.

THERE ARE WINNERS AND LOSERS; I WOULDN'T AT THIS STAGE PLACE MY BET ON SENATOR HILLARY CLINTON, UNLESS ITS A BET THAT SHE'LL FINISH SECOND.

It is inevitable the polls are going to show the lead closing- it happens in every state for both candidates. As elections grow closer, more undecideds make known their choice.
Hillary's biggest strength will be the undecideds who choose last minute. She has won that group in every state.
The other quesiton would be – how many people were polled in this particular poll. They have shown polls of as few as 300 people in populations of millions. Hardly a good cross section.
Let's just see what happens on 4/22 and let the chips land where they do.
And people- how about sticking to the issue of the article you responded to! This all over the board rambling is silly in an online discussion.

OBAMA WON IOWA BECAUSE HE BUSSED IN ILLINOIS PEOPLE!

HE'S THE ONE WHO WILL DO ANYTHING TO WIN!

PENNSYLVANIA – DON'T LET THE HOT AIR BALLOON "BAMBOOZLE" YOU FOR YOUR VOTE!

CLINTON 2008!

Those of you who have a problem with the polls, please go to realclearpolitics.com. You will see there that CNN is actually being quite generous because one of the polls actually has Hillary losing to Obama in Pennsylvania. I will just ask that you Pennsylvanians judge the candidates based on their characters. Lying should disqualify Clinton. Not doing research on your stories, should disqualify Clinton. The media will take whatever you give it, and Hillary has done a remarkable giving the news media much fodder. Thanks.

Missouri delivered for Obama, Penn can too.

Obama is outspending Hillary in large part because of the large bundles provided to him by OIL COMPANIES! The truth hurts, I know. Good thing the American people, and PA, are stupid enough to fall for our saviour! Behold the second coming, the messiah has arrived!! And as others including Jesse Jackson have said, if we don't win it will be twice as bad as the Rodney King riots!!!
Obama / Wright 08!!!!!

the kitchen sink appears to have missed Mr. Obama. HRC should just bow out already. if she can't win huge in PA. she can't win anyplace else.

OBAMA 2008

The overall make-up of HRC's support is low income blue collar uneducated whites who look to her as a saviour to get them out of low paying rust belt jobs in PA, and "soccer mom" white women, who support her solely on the fact she is a woman, regardless of her obvious deceit and laughable and weak resume.

This is the basic demographic of the 'Alabama – West VA." portion of this state and the sole reason she has kept the lead so far. The more higher income educated vote in Pitt and Philly will swing to Obama..

That said the numbers still favor her to win but a win by less the 10% is still a failure for HRC and would give Obama the edge…Bottom Line.

I find it astonishing that Obama's supporters are denigrating the "older, white uneducated women" of this country. These women are the ones that raised your ungrateful butts, many times without the help of your daddies. We are the ones who clothed you, fed you, and put your lazy butts through college. Speaking of college, how come the "educated" are graduating with less than stellar grades? How come 53% of college grads cannot find Iraq on a map? How many college grads can balance a checkbook without the help of a calculator?

So, Danny in Pittsburgh…kiss your older, white Mom. Meanwhile, us older, white women will come out in droves to support Hillary JUST BECAUSE OF YOUR DENIGRATING COMMENTS.

why are my comments awaiting moderation cnn when all these liberal idiots write rediculous things in support of there PUPPETS OF CHANGE who offer no real ideas and the ones they do have they only have becuase well were not republican and thats good right WHATS RIGHT IS NOT ALWAYS POPULAR AND WHATS POPULAR IS NOT ALWAYS RIGHT

To me they are both idiots,and so is McCain!! Super Iditos

Its is sad, one of my last comments on CNN,

The arrogance of US media to criticize other country's reporting on any issue when this is the trash and slanted reporting now that has gone on since this campaign started. CNN under TED TURNER at least was a NEWS ORGANIZATION. Now CNN should have a disclaimer ticker running that indicates it is a paid political station…..
The entertainment will be when the 'post analysis' is done on the media coverage………

Change cannot be stopped, with every new President in office there is bound to be change
It scares me when the ONLY criteria for being elected / electable is 'will bring Change!!'
Since the begining of this election cycle, Mr. Obama, other than saying he is 'for change' has said not too much .. about .. WHAT he will change .. or HOW ???
Mr. Obama (and his surrogate's aka supporters) one question for you, How can you change something you dont understand???
You have NO experience of even being close to the White House / you are a rookie in politics … the only reason for your attraction is your 'lack' of having done anything negative. . hey .. you HAVENT done anything ..
Remember .. he who makes no mistakes .. usually makes nothing .. that is you Mr. Obama .. you have made no mistakes .. because in essence you have made nothing .. done nothing ..
You dont know how the system works .. how are you going to change it .. WHAT are you going to change
Are you going to take away a trillion dollar deficit with your slogan ?
Are yiou going to reduce gas prices with your slogan?

and .. CNN .. your bias is showing ..
please try not to become like Fox ..

CHECK OUT THIS CNN NONSENSE FROM THIS ARTICAL!!

"Obama has outspent Hillary Clinton three to one just on television advertising in Pennsylvania. He spent more than $3 million trying to get his name out and his message out to Hillary Clinton's $1 million," said Mark Preston, a CNN political editor.

The Illinois senator has also heavily benefited from the Service Employees International Union, which according to recently filed FEC reports has spent well over $700,000 on get-out-the-vote-efforts there."

——–I mean, anyone with a high school education knows the reason why Hillary is falling in the polls is due to her recent lies (or "mis-speak" for the Hillary fans an CNN) and not anything Obama is doing. I mean really, we give him too much credit.

Hillary, run as long as you want. That's democracy; however, you are going to have to soften up and stop lying in order to regain ground.

Obama must spend more to be recognized,. This is common sense people. The more people get to know him, the more he will chip away at Hillary's lead. Hilary has been running on name recognition alone..that is it.

Bigots be gone!!!

Okay, for weeks now I've heard lots of rumblings about some mysterious deep dark secret about Obama that's going to come out. What is it? If it's so horrendous, bring it to the light of day. We know about Rezko, the whole Wright thing –he's been very upfront about all those things. My guess is it's just another stall tactic to draw out this whole pre-convention process. Instead of making mysterious accusations, and listening to the nuts on Fox News (Nancy, I'm talking to you) , vote your heart for the one who you feel will lead the nation the best. If that candidate doesn't get the nomination, then for heaven's sake, get behind the Dem nominee and help bring the party together.

Anybody by McCain!!

People aren't stupid, especially us Pennsylvanians who will vote for Obama and bring Obama THE PENNSYLVANIA WIN!!!

WE KNOW CNN IS FOR OBOMA…..
SO DO WE BELIVE THE CNN POLE……..NO……….
AND NO TO THE OTHER ONE……..
WHAT WE SHOULD ASK …..THE PERSON TAKINGTHE POLE …….WHO ARE YOU VOTING FOR ???????
THEN WE MIGHT GET A BETTER POLE……..
HANG IN THERE HILL/……….
THEY ARE TRYING TO SCARE THE VOTERS AWAY AGAIN……….

It is not unlikely that Obama will narrow the lead in Pa. Hillary will realize that her days were with her husband's time in the White House.
We the people, in order to form a more perfect union must demand from our politicans. It seems that a certain portion of our people will fall for any thing. It is up to us as a people to educate. if we let the politicans and the news media to educate the Billarys will be in the running come November.. Just look at how the news media and the
politicans want us to beleive that people in middle Pa. will not see through the Billarys and the governor of that state. It not about blue-collar workers or being white. It is about the right of the thing. No one can make me beleive that they are that backwards. If they are, then God help this country. The old way is not the right way this time. It is
the 21st century and if they have not realized by now that we are global,
again, "GOD HELP US".

Hillary supporters…GO AND DONATE TO HER WEB SITE!!!!!!!

…STOP THE MADNESS!…end the war now!

Outspending Billary may be partly responsible for Obama's increasing popularity, however, she is not exactly behaving presidential – merely re-arranging Penn's job title, and comparing the Columbian problem to Obama's Canadian problem. Also, do people know the facts that it was a Clinton aide, not an Obama aide, who spoke to Canadian leaders about trade? CNN, let's get the facts out. Stop protecting Billary!

Everyone is really hacking on Obama and Pastor Wright. Have we forgotten that this same Pastor was invited to the White House to give spiritual support to Bill Clinton when Bill was about to admit to his Lewinski affair.

ELM

Happy packing!

Its time for us to unite against a single candidate and I am pretty sure Hillary will play an important role as either a VP or Senate leader. We need to defeat Bush's thrid term in the form of McCain I mean McBush.

I didn't think Hillary had the money to pay for all the CNN coverage?
Could you at least update your site to show that Obama actually WON TEXAS?
Outdated and biased information will make cnn.com irrelevant.

Chris From San Antonio:

Your comment is so pathetic. When one merely points out the fact that 90% of African Americans in most states are voting for BO, it is racism. You accuse Jan of racism because she stated that the state of Penn is not over run by AA voters – you cal it racism. But hey it is OK if Irreverent "Wrong" comes out and bad-mouths half the world and goes on confirmed racist rants!! That is not racism? Wake up and smell the coffee – It is OK to discuss race. There is nothing racist in pointing out gender or race biases. And if you cannot actively participate or discuss such issues and add anything meaningful to it then do us all a favour by at least not saying something as pathetic as what you said above.

THE TRUTH ABOUT THE OBAMA DEALINGS WITH REZKO

WILL PUT AN END TO OBAMA'S HOPEs AND DREAM SOON.

Go Obama go!!!

Worthington "Wow~ Obama's now serving up Kool-Aid in SIX PACKS! Let is snow, let it snow, let it snow."

Jan "Remember Penn is not over run with black voters."

This show Racism is still alive and why need to bring it more to the light to create solutions. We so sorry about China, but look at our own problems. America Wake UP. . .

Dear Sabrina,
Obama's money is coming from small, first time donors averaging a $95 gift, unlike the money that Hillary gets which is almost entirely from special interest groups. That being said, you were right in that some people weren't going to vote for Hillary anyway, because they probably wouldn't vote at all if Obama weren't running. Obama is offering a chance for everyone to get involved in politics, and that is what these people expect. No more illegal wars or breaks for their special interest buddies or presidential pardons for their pals. All I've ever heard from Democrats in every election is that really want to change the system; well, here he is! Sorry it is not the woman running.
She represents the old Democratic guard, where trying to beat the Republicans at their own game of catering to corporations and lobbyists mixed in with a little (or a lot of) mudslinging is considered the astute approach. Obama represents something different, and everyday more people are realizing that.

Clinton lost this campaign herself, all by herself. Every misstep was due to her own poor judgment, Obama had nothing to do with it.

Wow! The lop-sided coverage, i.e. number of Clinton stories versus McCain and Obama on the Ticker is very evident. Trying to help her pull it out in PA?

CNN
awaiting moderation
what are you afraid of
The truth about Obama will come out

We all know what Hillary stands for. She was her husband's cheerleader, so if you want more foreign interventionism, more NAFTAs, LESS civil liberties, and ANOTHER Washington insider in office, seeking to preserve the status quo, she's your woman.

Hillary's life is not a movie we've just walked in on. We have seen her, we know her, and we don't want her. We know her for what she is — a manipulator, a liar, and someone who will do anything to get the power that she craves.

Boomer = you are a fool. You don't know anything about Pennsylvania. It has some of the finest institutions of higher learning in, not only the country, but the world. Obama is a fraud and a liar. He has an ad about the high oil prices where he says that he doesn't take money from big oil or their pacs. It is illegal for companies to donate to political campaigns, but the took hundreds of thousands of dollars from the executives of big oil. His resume is a blank page. He is so desperate that CBS (part of the Obama network) reported that he is considering "swiftboat" Kerry for his running mate. What a loser.

"Obama supporters in America are not alone in their excitement over this guy. Over here, people agree overwhelmingly that there is something special and magical about Barack Obama.

Yeah Right! I think your just an American Obamabot in disguise trying to make Obama sound good. We aren't all fools!

Hillary '08

Thank you, Chris from San Antonio! My thoughts exactly!!!

(In you response to Jan's comment – "Penn isnt over run by black voters")

Last time I checked…the black vote held as much weight as anyone else's. Talk about bringing race into this!!!!

An american in Canada?…Hillary can be president all she wants in 2009 the election is in 2008! I guess you "mis-spoke"!

Yeah, same thing in OHIO, but she won by 12 points. You can give us one sided polls but the will of the people will prevail. PA is a HILLARY COUNTRY because we believe that she is the one ready to fight for our causes! Ready to lead us in Day One!

The Presidency is not a job for an amateur! In HILLARY we trust!

Use the CNN interactive delegate map and you'll see that unless Hillary wins PA by at least a 60%-40% spread that she is done, unless she can for a 70%-30% split of superdelegates in her favor, which nobody thinks is anywhere near possible, much less probably.

In other words, if Pennsylvania is anywhere near close — which is to say that Obama finishes within 15% of her — it is totally over.

The math doesn't lie, bitter radical feminists and senile Geezers With Wheezers notwithstanding.

This also presumes that Hillary is able to bring North Carolina back into the 10% spread range, which isn't likely either.

Hillary just appointed Elliot Spizer as her new Campaign Manager. It seems he fits right in with her campaign strategy, but most importantly, Elliot is very much like her husband, Bill.

Should Obama win this nomination I can't wait to give my vote to John McCain and leave the Democratic party permanently. BYE BYE DNC!! THANKS MSM!! Good job electing the worst Democratic candidate ever – another election of choosing the worse of two evils – and that choice is easy – McCain.

Clinton '08 or McCain '08 (it's looking the MSM will get their wish and it will be the latter)

Lets put an end to the madness already. Yes we can and yes we will!!
Obama '08

Michele from OH – get your money back and spend it on some tissues.

Obama 08 & 12

I am a white, 61-year-old woman who's solidly supporting Barack Obama. My support for him has absolutely nothing to do with my race and it has absolutely nothing to do with his race. My support for him is based on my belief that he will be the best President of the United States.

I'm sick of the racial stereotypes of who votes for whom because of skin color. We're better than that, Democrats.

Hillary pulled the wool over the Buckeyes in Ohio about Obama and NAFTA.Surely the good people of PA will be able to see through her .How could she not know that her top advisor was working trade deals with Columbia?Send her back to New York!!!

Lets see… one is a liar and the other a empty suit and a liar.
No choice – I'll go with McCain. Really folks – do you want to elect anyone from the Democrats after seeing what a mess they made in Congress and how they run an election?
Thier whole foriegn policy revolves around calling the President a liar – they have nothing substantial beyond that.
Folks think the economy is tough now? Wait until they tax the daylights out of you so they can wrap a goernment program around anything/everything and really make a mess.
Wake up fools

Obama could have knocked Clinton long ago if he has wanted to play dirty. There is more than enough dirt on Clinton, but Obama decided early on that wasn't the kind of campaign he would run. But just because he hasn't brought this up doesn't mean that he doesn't know, or that everyone else doesn't knows…in particular, the Republicans. Clinton chose to run an offensive campaign, Obama, a defensive one. As it turns out, Obama didn't need to run an attack campaign, all he had to do was wait for the media, and Clinton herself, to expose it. Don't think that the media hasn't done the same with Obama, they have scoured for dirt…these is just so little compared to Clinton's.

Last Memo to Hillary: Stop trying to be Storyteller-In-Chief. Mark Penn

Ding-dong the witch is dead!

yayayay one horrible candidate is over coming the other horrible candidate oh wait lets just get rid of both of them for the good of the country

This is a stupid ticker, there have been about a hundred ticker's on this CNN. Move on, it is old news. Why do you put something up after every poll.

Chris from San Antonio -

I have to give you a bit of grief about your post: If only old white women were allowed to vote, Hillary would be winning!!

I happen to be a 57 year old white woman who has been on board with Obama since before day one, actually. I walked and knocked on doors in every kind of neighborhood in Milwaukee to make sure Wisconsin came through once again.

So be careful about what you say about old white women!

Jan/Karen ~ you are both racist. I voted for Obama and I am white, female, and over 55. I want a president who is honest, has integrity, and is intelligent. Karen ~ you need to do your homework. He bought property (legally) from Rezko BEFORE Rezko did his dealings .. do you think everyone who knew Rezko since the second grade should be held accountable? Wright is no more racist than any other older, angry black man, and considering how his generation was treated by a lot of whites, not hard to comprehend. You need to read Roland Martin's article on the whole sermon not just soundbite quotes from Karl Rovian mud-slinger tacticians. And I would like to know what the hell is wrong with the fact that his relatives come from Kenya? His mother was a white woman from Kansas, you uninformated bigot. My relatives are from Germany and Ireland…does that make me less of an American? I think not.

Hillary kept saying how PA is the State that will do ir for her.
Well it looks like the People who vote in PA are doing it and are shifting to Obama.
I really believe its possible Obama can take PA away from Clinton .
Now with the latest lies and Mark Penn resigning and still on Clintons Campaign Staff that was some resignation being demoted and getting paid still to be her consultant instead and lying about Columbia.
Senator Liar is going down in PA and even if she wins it will be a small margin.
Obama Yes We can PA 08

Jan, can you be just a TAD BIT more racist?

all Hillary has to do is cry a little more just before tha primaries and a certain part of her base will come running!

If you can't win a Nomination like Billary says, "By Getting Roughed Up, Then Don't Come On To The Field"!

She's a Liar, When she trades you and your spouses job away, let's see what Penn will be over run with then!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

One more time ..TOO ALL YOU DEMOCRATS THAT ARE THREATENING TO VOTE FOR McCANN IF YOUR PREFERED DEMOCRATIC NOMINEE DOESN'T WIN…YOU ARE NUTS!!! PLAIN AND SIMPLE..AND NOT TOO BRIGHT…

It's the millions of Obama supporters like me, donating $10-100 at a clip, that are financing his campaign unlike Clinton's special interest groups. You Clinton supporters need to quit whining that he is outspending her.

Obama "08!!!!!!!!

Everyone needds to stop putting in 2009 on there posts. The election is held in November 2008. Maybe Clinton has something up her sleeve to take the Presidency in 2009?

It is really sad that a man who blatantly lies about so many things would be moving ahead. I though Pennsylvania was smarter than that and would see through him. He was quoted on factcheck.com indicating that "Obama has accepted more than $213,000 from individuals who work for companies in the oil and gas industry and their spouses.

Two of Obama's bundlers are top executives at oil companies and are listed on his Web site as raising between $50,000 and $100,000 for the presidential hopeful. How does this work for our economy, one lie after another. How many people would not have voted for Obama had they known then what they know now.

This along with his Rev. Wright and Rev. Manning issues and other lies about building up education in his home state, one lie after another and covering it up. He has the money, boy where did he get all of that money. I wonder how he got it all. Did anyone ever think about that?

Ok Hillary, let's let the people vote. But what are you going to do when they DON'T vote for you?? Oh, right, you are a "fighter" and will try to overturn the popular vote and the delegate vote because you think the people want you more. Please, Hillary, get a clue!!

ELECTIONWATCHER—When you are up 20 points and that lead shrinks like it has, I would consider that 'FADING'. What do you call it?

Of course, he's got the backing of just about every lazy, pot-smoking, self-righteous, irresponsible college age idiot. It's easy for them to identify with Obama, he's basically one of them. God forbid this man is elected – he will destroy us from the inside out. Then again, that's how most great powers evantually fall. Over liberalizion is the decline of Western mankind. All you progressives need to lose your white guilt, this man's agenda has nothing in it for your well being.War-mongering, yes! Fear mongering, yes! These are a facts of life! Stop him by all means possible.

CNN Your bias reports with those phony polls reporting Hillary R. Clinton losing ground in Penn is bogas, just like most of your reporting these days.

Your Obama, baby is going down all the way and back to Chicago where he belongs.

Take Note CNN:

Hillary R. Clinton, President of America 2009-2012

IF Clintons win the White House I am moving to Columbia.

Of course Obama is chipping away at Clintons, he has millions and milions more than Clinton and McCain, and where is all this money coming from and what do they expect in return????? Also all you people who say I was going to vote for Clinton but not because of this or that ———— you were not going to vote for her anyway. You just like knocking her.

Obama's message resonates very well with Pa voters:
"I DO NOT TAKE MONEY FROM LOBBYESTS".
Many voters see lobbyests as a reason the federal government does not put "WE THE PEOPLE" first.
Pa is considered a microcosism of the nations voters:
Heavy population centers on the east and west ends that lean democratic. A vast mid-section that leans republican.
Pa. tends to vote for concrete issues, not polarizing fad-issues.
We don't care much about race or gender.
WE WANT THE JOB DONE.

cnn,pls its being reported on huff post that john mccain got physical with a fellow congressman,its being reported that he has a bad temper but we need to know how bad pls can you pls confirm the story,i am an undecided voter and i really need to know thanks

It is funny how the Obama people talk about how he the winner. He doesn't have the delegates to win so how is he the winner. Something for Obamaians to think about. Big states have more super delegates than small states. Huh! makes the super delegates almost like electoral votes in a way. Big state more delegates, small states less, so if Obama doesn't have enough to win,, maybe he is the loser,,

For Hillary to be so tough…you supporters of her sure can whine! Face it! CNN IS RIGHT! if you had an almost 20 point lead down to a single digit point lead…the lead is fading! Especially in a proportional system like ours! Clinton is the reason why Pa is even a story! If she didnt make this a do or die state for both of them this wouldnt even be on the ticker! Clinton is the one setting all of these standards and then at the end can't meet them! Clinton is the one that threw the kitchen sink and that ripped a hole in her closet!! This is no one's fault but Hillary's! Hillary is treated like ANY INCUMBENT in a race! Had she not started this race as such she would NOT be in this position! Pride is always before the fall…accept it!

Hillary: Where are you going.
Penn: Just have to take a day off, vacation of some sort.
Hillary: Where
Penn: In Colombia
Hillary: But i need you, we are in the middle of a campaign.
Penn: Just need to get some sun.
Hillary: All right. Keep in touch.

Does anyone in his right state of mind think that the top adviser can go on a trip to Colombia, without Clinton knowing where he went. Seriously. Please! Wake up! I still can not believe someone can trust anything HRC says.

Hopefully Obama can pull out an upset win in PA and end this race. Clinton and her supporters of course will back the party nominee. Unless of course they think that Hillary Clinton is more important than the rest of the Democratic Party.

It is astounding to me what mean and hateful things come from the supporters of the Hope & Change candidate – Obama.

I thought hate speech was reserved for the right wing? Perhaps all these "new voters" that are turning out for Obama come from that hate-filled camp. Perhaps that's why they are trying to destroy the Democratic party with their hate and anger and fear.

Obama says, "We are the change we seek." So – is the change we seek to all become venomous haters?

I won't vote for that!

OBAMA WILL NEVER WIN IN NOVEMBER!!!! NEVER!!! NEVER!!!NEVER!!!!

Jan – what a horribly racist comment!! I am a white woman and will definitely be voting for Obama. He is the face of the future for this country and yes he will win. I am not a Hillary hater but she can't tell the truth to save her campaign. Obviously you can vote however you chose – BUT think about it – if Hillary is so dishonest now when she is trying to be the dem nominee – what will she be like if she actually wins. As a citizen of the US i am not willing to take that change of ANOTHER 4 years of lies!!!

Obama is buying the votes !! Don't you people get it ?? Read the story clearly . . . he's outspending Hillary big time . . . buying tv and radio spots . . . and SELLING HIMSELF !! That's it ! He's nothing more than a product. What's making me sick is sitting back and watching the American public – the ones who are naive enough at least – fall for sales tactic . . .

Garry, Little Rock, Are you really from Little Rock or are you sirtting behind a BIG Rock?

You're from Arkansas and don't know the lying Clintons?

Are you Garry Clinton?

Hillary arrogance, lying, mismangemant of her campaign and kevlar pant suits are PULLING her down.

By the way Pinocchio says Hillary is a "BIG LIAR" and he NOSE about that that ! lol

Hillary should advertise for her availability to speak across our
poor country and Dubai. She can share the stage with Ann Coulter.
Two of the most hated women in America. Hillary said she "would"
vote for the Columbian Trade Deal, "If" If what? Clintons donations
went to Clintons own Foundation! Obama won 14 states but then
did not win Ohio. Something fishy there????

She will win Pennsylvania with double digits. People from Pennsylvania know that she's the best candidate running in the ticket that can turn around the economy, with her husband's help. America needs them both. Go Hillary '08.

Obama flip flop on when he would get America out of Iraq. He, also, flip-flop on the gun issue. Doesn't anyone do any research for themselves anymore?

It is so sad to read how many of you believe everything in the media. My vote is for Hillary and I believe she will win Pennsylvania. Some of the tag lines used here are quite funny – "educated voter…woman…" Who cares. Just because you are "educated" you think your opinion outshines other opinions. I do not understand why so many of you have to list your credentials in order to give an opinion. I am personally voting on the issues at hand. I like Hillary's health plan (I work in healthcare) and I like her plan to help children. And, why is Hillary a liar and Obama just exaggerated – NAFTA, etc. Hmm…

Creative Woody- How can Penn's dealings have nothing to do with Hillary? R U loco. Yes I am a Obama supporter, but I also have a mind. I am will not stick to "Obama" and just refuse to see his short comings. We would all be better served to the same. Hate gets us nowhere. But I am sure you will not give it a 2nd thought and continue on your wreckless tirade.

Clintons days in this race are numbered. It' s a fairy tale. It's just a dream bad dream. Take your losses and go now or over whelming humiliation will follow suit.

Bravo for Pennsylvania! Keep listenening and learning what a scam artist she really is. Speaking as a middle aged femal, I hope that the women in Pa aren't voting for her because she is a woman. The problem with Sen. Clinton is that she is the WRONG WOMAN.

Obama has no real advantage.He is self-serving in his way of spending campaign raised money.He is outspending Clinton 4-1 and not having a rock solid advantage.Obama carelessly spends money in effort of his political gain ,despite the democratic party advising not to .He has regard only for himself .
As far as the polls are concerned.The have proven wrong in Ohio and Texas and they will once more.PA will vote for Hillary by over 10 %.

Keep it up Mr. Obama, I am sure PA will end this on the 22nd and NC will be the straw that broke the queens back.

Sandra, you are correct. She is a pathological liar and cannot be rehabilitated.

I detect racial slurs in many of the pro Hillary comments. My favorite: Pennsylvania is not OVERRUN with blacks! It is obvious that her constituancy is made up largely of uneducated white people, some of whom are bigots. I have heard that Pennsylvania consists of Pittsburgh, Philadelphia and Alabama. Food for thought!

Why don't some of you people wake up before it is to late, do your research, check out all the lies from obama, Resco, Wright, Kenyan relations, There are several proven lies in his book about him self he rather embelished it to make himself look better in the public eye, He was the one who talked to canada,you can talk to any news sorce and check it out, and Hillarys story about the pregnant woman was true,go to Washington Post and check it out, the aunt ot the lady confirmed it. Come on people quit following obama like a bunch of cult groupies before it is to late.

Change isn't change until we've change!

OBAMA in "08″

You know…this is disgusting. Since last night, apparently superstar liar with the big mouth wife knows everything in the world. I will not vote for him under any circumstances, and would rather have Hillary. If she does not get it , you Obama groupies need to realize the fact that Obama will lose, because we had in the Raleigh area last night party jumpers to vote for McCain to the tune of 450 and growing daily. So, while you guys do you on line contribution thru trumped up donators-let McCain win.

The only reason Hillary ever starts out strong is because of name recognition. As you can see, once more people meet Obama and hear what he has to say they quickly abandon Clinton. When I say quickly I literally mean quickly, look at the timespan between these polls.

Many of you are too arrogant to review all candidates and make an objective opinion about them. If you did, you would see that Obama is clearly the candidate that embodies change and has the mindset this country needs to deal with our problems.

George W. Bush put off health care, social security, he barely scratched the surface on energy independence, all while starting off with one hell of an approval rating, an incredible surplus, and the boom in housing. Only a complete moron could f— that up, and look what happened.

McCain used to be a great guy, and if elected would hopefully turn his back on the warmongers that are trying to get him elected but in the world of old politics, people put loyalty above morality. This is why Richardson endorsed Obama, morality should always triumph over loyalty. McCain is too loyal to the Republican brand name and while he used to be moderate, has now embraced help from the neo-conservatives that elected Bush.

Clinton has not put much effort into this campaign. She started with inevitability which allowed enough people to ignore her and look at those running against her. She greatly underestimated how dependant she would be on her big financial backers and has fallen so much in love with her own money that she is unwilling to spend any of her own money. That 5 million dollar LOAN has to get paid back. As reported by politico, she has millions of dollars worth of bills she still needs to pay back. She cannot win the nomination so she is in it to pay off her debts, not in it til the end. Don't be fooled by the media's attempt to make this thing look close. The need for ratings overpowers the need for unbiased, objective reporting.

She has run a negative campaign because VP is still a win in her book. The only way Obama can heal the wounds left from her campaign is to bring her in. How else are her supporters supposed to vote for Obama if she has caused them to hate him so much? But don't tell that to you guys, you just care about who read the script that someone should not have written.

Remember, being a moderate independant is the ideal way to deal with politics. Politicians pay great attention to them. The liberal and the conservative are simply pocket votes that a candidate earns by default. The moderate independant swings the election.

If Billary is that good of a candidate, she will be outspending Obama 10 to 1! Obama is the underdog here and have proven time after time that he is a much better candidate to be the President of the United States!!
But, the fat lady is paying Mark Penn $10 million dollars a month to talk to Colombians in cutting free trade deals and basically mismanaging her campaign.

If Billary can't manage her campaign, you can't trust her with the presidency…there is sooo many Baggage and Lies and Half Truths that comes with the Clintons!

PA: SAY NO TO BILLARY AND PUT AN END TO HER MISERY!!!!

Obama supporters in America are not alone in their excitement over this guy. Over here, people agree overwhelmingly that there is something special and magical about Barack Obama.
We simply don't know what it is but we know it 's something good for America and its image abroad.

That is all! Learn to count Delegates. Or try remedial math!

Why has there been little talk about Senator Clinton's ex pastor that was convicted of molesting a 7 year old girl?

Listen, I know some are insulted by saying Clinton supporters are less educated. But that is what the polls are saying, not Obama supporters. That those with less than a college degree support Hillary.

Also, most of these same Hillary supporters watch FOX news and have actually suggested to others to watch FOX. That show is not even credible. So how educated of a suggestion is that to watch FOX? Pretty dumb to me.

Come on Hillary, pull ahead!
If we can't see McCain / Rice '08…

It'd be nice to see you get Impeached

If she can dodge sniper fire she can raly from a dip. Wait she can't dodge sniper fire.

What is so wrong with being VP?
Barack Obama could agree to run with Hillary and be the vice president so that he will have 4-8 years to gain additional experience and then run for president and have 4-8 years making his idea’s become a reality? He could potentially have 16 years to make a difference. What is so wrong with being VP? Why drag this on for so long?

Even if she wins all the remaining contests 60% to 40%, I have done the math,she will still trail the guy and the fact remains that she wont even perform that magic.

And she knows it. So why the heck is this woman dividing the party by hanging on to nothing?

Howard Dean please for the sake of success for the party in November,please take a stand on the remaining superdelegates to endorse the people's choice so the party can move ahead.

She knows she is down and by hanging on,she expects to drag the guy down with her but she is JOKING.

OBAMA THE NEW FACE OF AMERICA.

That's not what the SUSA polls say…the one that has been most accurate to date.

Hillary's up 18 points…consistent with past polling.

Pennsylvania is clearly going towards Hillary.
But we'll see.

We will only hear more about Ayers, Rezko, and Wright if Obama is nominated. Don't think that McCain's campaign isn't getting prepared.

Please wake up and vote for Hillary!

"Jan April 8th, 2008 11:16 am ET

There is no way Obama is going to win in Penn, When the true polls
come out Penn voters are not that stupid. He can spend all the money he wants, but Hillary will still win.

She is a true a true American and people are going to vote for her
because she is the best to lead this country.

Remember Penn is not over run with black voters."

Jan, WOW….WOW….was going to comment on this but now i'm just flabergasted. It's ignorance like yours that is unfortunately going to destroy this country eventually. You're so typical of the Billary supporters….based on absolutely nothing but you know you need to support her and her lies, deviousness and cunning.

Btw, i live in PA….not black and very much for Obama. So maybe i'm the only white person in PA that feels that way but i highly doubt it.

Finally!! PA is seeing this lying woman for who she really is. Hillary has known and worked with Penn for the same time that Obama has been going to Rev.Wright's church and she wants us to believe that she didn't know what this man was up to.. It looks like two birds of a feather!!!

Also… Can someone please tell why is it that when Hillary is in trouble she turns around and points her finger at Obama even when it doesn't have anything to do with him.

Obama '08

Please have a heart and a brain….
Vote for Hillary

Its not about the polls its about the turnout, if Obama is within 5 points of Hillary in the polls, he just might pull this off.

P.S. I haven't seen this much of self destructive behaviour (in Hillarys campaign) since the Britney Spears. How do you lose a 20 point lead?

Obama supporters will do or say anything to try and discourage people from voting for Clinton. What are they afraid of?. Probably the fact that she would make a much better president. She sees the big picture and she takes all views into consideration. She will bring this country back to where it needs to be and help us to get back on the road to peace and prosperity. She has a Social conscious that Obama only talks about. and social conscious is the reason why people become democrates.

Is her lead really getting smaller or are people just using early voting and not answering pollsters. The same trend happened in Texas and in Ohio, Hillary won both, remember!

Everywhere he goes he starts to win people over! He will be a great leader. Just look at how well he has run his campaign. If his campaign was like Hillary's he would have been knocked out of this race a long time ago.

Obama 08!

Buy the election??? To make this statement, you must first consider who he is getting all of his money from – the average person. Last month his AVERAGE donation was only $99. Buying an election with the average American's money is fine. In fact, it is a wonderfully welcome change.

I live in Philly, and the out-spending is obvious. An Obama TV ad seems to appear more often than a Geico commercial. Still, I don't think Clinton's lead has narrowed as much as these polls show. Polls showed a similar narrowing during the California primary (some even predicted an Obama win).

After reading ALL the above comments, I have to say that I am very disappointed in Hillary. I am a black woman who REALLY wanted her to win, voted for her in NY. I wish we could redo the primary…

Anyway, good luck to Obama, and even though I am a hardcore Hillary fan, I WILL NOT VOTE McCAIN during the general elections, I Will vote Democratic, whoever it may be.

Americans must be in a trance. First they vote for Bush twice and now they want Obama? I disagree that she needs to win big in PA. A win is a win. Even if she does win, the left-wing media will somehwow try to turn it around and make it seem as though it was a win for Obama. The pro-Obama media has been controlling the primaries thus far and that is the reason Obama is where he is today.

Re:

election watcher April 8th, 2008 11:26 am ET
I'm neutral on this election, but sick and tired of biased reporting. The front page link said Clinton is "fading", but she still holds the lead in PA, which isn't exactly fading? Stop trying to tell readers how to think and simply report the facts.

I believe CNN used the word fading appropriately:

"fading: attenuation: weakening in force or intensity"

I can give you some sources if you'd like, but I think most of us know the definition of fading without a dictionary.

Hillary is no victim here. She lied and is getting what she deserves. The distrust of the voters. Plain and simple.

yeah well Obama had erased Hillary's lead in NH and had a 10 point lead but look what happened. POLLS MEAN NOTHING people. When will you learn. Only trust the final results.

Obama Nation:

You need to read the Gergen story in regards to Penn and Obama's Nafta… get the real story!!!

I hope that Clinton starts questioning Obama about some very questionable things going on… Gergen hinted at some stuff that has not been reported… Everyone needs to know who they are voting for… If Clinton loses everyone needs to thank her for preparing Obama for the general… Republicans will be out to destroy whoever the Democrat nominee is… I think all of the information needs to be put out there good or bad!!!

You may categorize Obama followers as that portion of the population that fail to take responsibiltiy for their own actions. Lemmings. —- they can all go to the sea of Obama's mythical magical change and drown. Blub blub blub Thanks Obama for not dropping out and 'not' changing the party for the next four years.. BEcause you didn't drop out looks like the Reps get 'er again.

Has anyone been paying attention to the latest information concerning Obama's friend, terrorist William Ayers? Watch Fox news at 9:00 evenings. Obama has had a long, friendly relationship with Ayers who admits to bombing the Pentagon and other places in America. Ayers said he wishes he had done more bombing!! Do you really want a president who chooses to be friends with people like terrorist Ayers, corrupt Tony Rezko, and racist Jeremiah Wright? Every Dem I know has said that if Obama wins the nomination, they will vote for McCain in November. So will I, because Obama is seriously lacking in judgment and character.

what's behind the shift? not just obama spending on ad campaigns, its clinton coming apart at the seams. she lies and embellishes everything and her campaign peeps are constantly being called into questioning and "resigning". she is horrible, and her husband was too. at least he was a talented orator.

I find it truly offensive that people here in this blog refer to Clinton supporters as "less educated". I support Hillary Clinton, and I graduated college over 11 years ago with a master's in education. I certainly don't consider myself "less educated", and I bet there are thousands of others who are sick and tired of Obama supporters being so rude. How is it appropriate to be so disrespectful to people just because they don't support the candidate that you do? For a candidate who says that he can unite the country, his supporters sure are proving otherwise!

Hillary sure has a bad judgement …

Why does she always surround herself with men who cheat, lie, and sneak around on her?

Ok, so maybe condoning her acceptances of Bill's indiscretions is forgivable but come on, she should have given Mark Penn the boot out of the campaign! Instead she only tells the public that he no longer can use his "chief strategist" name tag.

The Clinton's are very afraid what kind of damage Mark Penn could do to them their relationship went sour.

The troops will come back from Iraq when the time is right no matter who is prestident.
It's amazing how many military experts sit here and spout off inane posts.
Hillary gave her charity money to herself in the CFF. She is staying in to beg for donations so she dosen't have to spend her OWN money to pay off her campaign debts. When have you ever heard of the Clintons spending there own money. They've lived off the tax payers for 40 years. Pretty nice public housing right?
Watch your taxes go up with either of them.
Keep the Bush tax cuts.
Protect the country.
I don't listen or watch the Left stream Media. I see CBS is trying to join up with CNN. Not getting good ratings I guess. I can see why. Still won't watch CNN etc. They certainly don't influence me as I can think for myself.
Congress approval rating still lower than Bushes. History will tell.
McCain 08

It might not just be the money, it also may have something to do with her inability to tell the truth.

===

As for the "eminence" of Clinton become the nominee?

Based on current poll data, if campaigning were to stop and all primaries go today, Clinton would need about 80% of the superdelegates remaining to vote for her to win.

Fat chance.

… and history has shown this primary season that the more time Obama has to campaign, the better he does (and the inverse is true about Clinton, it might have something to do with the fact that the truth eventually DOES come out) …

The American people supporting Barack Obama are outspending Hillary Clinton!! We are the ones contributing to this campaign and I believe it is all money well spent if we end up with the right leader in the White House……Barack Obama.

If Hillary is a fraud then Obama is a demon.

Any poll published by CNN is pure propaganda to bolster Obama. Its unreliable. The polls taken on the streets with ordinary people we meet in the streets across the towns and cities suggests Hillary is getting a 60 percent favorable response out of every one hundred.

Obama thinks he can buy the pollsters, CNN , tv journalists…who cares…tons of suckers in America willing to throw their hard earned dollars at a candidate that in all honesty, will not be able to improve their lives.

It looks like the victory at Penn would be insignificant (In terms of delegates) for Hillary. She needs to win very big in Penn to even suggest that she has any hope. I guess she should just wind up and save what ever positive image she may still have.

Hey Less Media More Issues…

Obama still trails the Clintons in name recognition – it's common for the underdog to outspend – he has a lot of folks he needs to reach with his message. Clinton is a household word – and all the familiarity that goes with it. Obama isn't trying to "buy" the election – he's trying to get his name and his message out.

The question is Whats Behind the Shift?

It is not the Money So Perhaps it is the CHANGE!!

I agree… CNN is so hostile towards Clinton.
In example, they're making such a big deal over the misinterpreted stories told by Hillary.
What about the time when the Canadian government exposed that letter stating that Obama was just preaching about getting rid of NAFTA so that he can obtain votes. He could be doing the same on his medicare policy or even the situation on Iraq.
Honestly how can we trust Obama with what he says when after he says something, he goes behind the cameras and states what he said was just for public popularity.
and McCain is just a psychotic old man that speaks so easily of going to war in Iraq for 50-100 years.
Why doesn't that man send his own children if he's so deteremined in giving Iraq "freedom".

I personally resent your remark about how Obama is creaping up on Clintons lead because he has out spent her. Thats just BULL. Clinton cannot even run a decent campaign, how is she going to run our very precious country?…..WE, PA citizens, can judge the truth for ourselves. Hillary Clinton is an underhanded politician, smooth and savy, knows just how to "spin" a tale..tall tales too. Hillary Clinton and I bet even Bill Clinton knew all along that Mark Penn was hired last March 2007 to plan a stragedy to get the Columbian Trade act through congress. So BULL she didnt know..and BULL she did the right thing. Quit insulting our integerity!!!!

Vote responsibly April 22nd

Looks like a majority of ‘white women’ will vote for Hillary, no matter what. I guess they did not find the Bosnia story as insulting as I did. But again, I do not lie.

I agree Derick if not Hillary, then McCain.. WE need experience in the WH .. Hillary can run again in 4 yrs and Obama will be proven not to be electable..organize now..Dem Congress will keep McCain in check…organize now DEMS for Hillary

This is one "older" Southern white woman that has been firmly behind and supporting Obama since December. I will continue to support him and I have been a life long Republican.

So, please don't think all of us older white women cannot think for ourselves. Some of us have built and lived our own lives and do not have to live vicariously thru Hillary.

Wow you really are creative. As a voter i am honest about my candidates flaws and strengths. Sure clinton is perfect even though she is consistently lying even Canada said Obama's stance was the same with them and publicly. Obama's Pastor was Obama's Pastor Clintons Bosnia Lie is her own lie. Obama is taking hits for everyone around him while Clinton only has to defend her consistent lies. It's okay america is tired of being lied to. We will take back this country.

I don't think the polls are dropping for Mrs Clinton because of Money so much as her continued lies and mismanagement of her campaign. If Mark Penn is any indication of the people she choses to put in top positions do we want her running the country? Her campaign has been a disaster sense super tuesday.

I am SO TIRED of CNN constantly praising Obama and consistantly putting down Clinton. It has been obvious from the start that the news media in this country has been lopsisded in it's coverage of this election.
I guess the media likes a candiate with a racist for a minster and ties to a slum lord not mention everything else that is starting to come out.
Hopefully Pennsylvanians will see the light..unlike so many other states who voted race only!
America is failing miserably and this constant praising of Obama is getting really old.
And it is obvious that CNN usually only lets what they want in on here…mostly Obama fans putting Climnton down.

How someone can put:

"OBAMA'S PASTOR IS A RACIST!!"

and

"PENN'S DEALINGS HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH CLINTON'S CAMPAIGN!!"

in the same comment without seeing the irony is beyond me.

election watcher:
When Hillary held a 20 point lead less than a month ago, having only a 6 point lead is DEFINITELY fading.
What would you like the headline to have said? "Clinton increases her lead to 6 points, up from 20″?

I mis-voted on that Iraq war becasue I was sleep deprived….afterall I am human…and the sources for my healthcare story about the lady that died in ohio were not credible bla bla bla Its only a matter of time before we the people of this great nation get a great President who is honest and not just power hungry. Its obvious that hilary will do and say anything to get elected.

NO NO NO NO, Hillary said this morning she "would" support
the Columbian Trade Deal "IF"????? "IF" "IF" NO if's Hillary
is contemplating supporting the Columbian Trade Deal. NO
NO to Hillary. These trade deals, like Nafta, are won by votes
from people like Hillary and McCain and will do more harm than
good to the American people and jobs. Our country lost 80,000
jobs in March. When is this nonsense going to STOP????????

She is losing because she lied about Bosnia, NAFTA and the pregnant mother dying. Her own mother said that she will do anything and say anything to win. Too bad for her that the American people are not buying it this time. Time for Dems to unite and end this thing so Barack can face McCain and restore hope to our great nation.

As the lead narrows, so do Hillary's chances. She NEEDS to win PA by at least a double digit margin to even consider competing in this race. Then again, she NEEDED to win Texas but lost. As we have all seen, she's willing to change the rules.

Anything to win. Anything to be president

"it took a Clinton to get the 1st Bush out of the White House and it will take a Clinton to get the 2nd Bush OUT OF THE WHITE HOUSE!"

Go Hillary!

History has taught us that these polls don't mean anything. What a shame that all of that money that Obama has spent is wasted and could have been donated to charity's instead.

They stated on Morning Joe that the story regarding the pregant girl being turned away by the hospital and later dieing turned out to be correct. The family stated that she had originally gone to a different hospital where she was turned away. Nice of you Obama supporters who were criticising her in the nastiest of ways yesterday to admitt your error in judgement. Was this a mis- spoke or a lie. Incidently, there was a guy who died at the hospital where Michelle Obama worked as a result of being turned away also. Obama's health care plan is flawed because it doesn't cover adults also. Clintons health care plan is much better.

Well Pennsylvania now knows the truth about Hillary……and more Hillary bad news of the last few days will trickle down to them in the next few days. Imagine, I spoke to someone on Friday who was still undecided did NOT know about Hillary’s LIE about Bosnia nor Hillary’s NAFTA / CAFTA scandals.

Just going down Hillary’s top people makes you wonder about her campaign and the unethical activities that went on by them in the past and during the campaign
- Mark Penn – lobbyist – trade scandal

- Wolfsan – – lobbyist

- Carville – should be fired for his remarks on Bill Richardson

- Bill Clinton (spoke negatively about race, negative campaigning, scandals…….)

- G Ferraro (spoke negatively about race)

- Ed Rendell (spoke negatively about race)

- Hillary (Bosnia, Ireland, NAFTA, HillaryCare in ‘90s, loves lobbyists, bad campaign)

Going … Going… GONE!

Hillary should take her wayward husband and what is left of her family – her daughter that campaigns for her, but picks and chooses which questions she will answer (remind you of anyone?), and go.

So far, she has been the best thing that McCain could hope to get! Hillary, way to go!. Now just go.

Obama doesn't have to win Penn. All he has to do is make it close so that she doesn't gain much in the delegate count. If they split a tight race it only support Obama.

Jan-
"Remember Penn is not over run with black voters."

Hey Jan…. NEITHR WERE IOWA OR WISCONSIN… BWAAAAAA HAHAHA!

But thanks for letting us know why YOU vote the way you do…

ESCUSE ME…. WASN'T THE CANADIAN GOVERNMENT ACTUALLY TALKING ABOUT THE CLINTON CAMPAIGN IN REFERENCE TO THE FORK-TONGUED NAFTA ISSUE ?

Bill seriously. I can't vote for a woman who needed to lie about her foreign policy experience. She traveled and had tea in 80 countries as a First Lady. Given that, my travel agent traveled to more places and should be elected for President? Hillary can't be trusted. She lied about her experience.

ALL YOU HILARY SUPPORTERS, AGAIN ANOTHER DECEPTION, SHE MAKES YOU THINK SHE FIRED PENN? YEAH RIGHT, HE IS STILL ON HER CAMPAIGN. SHE WILL DECEIVE THE COUNTRY JUST LIKE SHE HAS USED THIS CAMPAIGN TO LIE TO US!
WATCH OUT, YOU CAN ONLY GET THE SIGNALS NOW. AND WHY DOES SHE ATTACK OBAMA WHEN SHE IS UNDER FIRE? HE DOES NOT DO THE SAME TO HER? OBAMA IS AN EXEMPLARY LEADER!

Jan, BLACK voters have NOTHING to do with the shrinking lead for Hillary, DID YOU READ THE STORY!!!!!!!!!!!! It stated SHE was losing ground with MEN—it's truly RACISTS like you that continue to place the race card, Americans are soooo over that. If you support Hillary, than I respect that, I don't respect your attempt to denigrate the african american voters. So please READ the full article before you post. I am african american and SUPPORTED Hillary until she started with the DIRTY politics and LIES,.

Clinton voters, get use to the following terms, and names. Whitewater, Vince Foster, Filegate, Travelgate, Frank Giustra, and Mark Penn. These are just a few of the things that the republicans can bring up to eliminate Hillary in November. The "under fire" Bosnia landing and the that women's health care story are just the tip of the iceberg of the Clinton house of lies. How she convinced Ohio that she didn't want NAFTA was mind blowing! If Pennsylvania falls for the same, and votes her through, we could get these folks back in the whitehouse. The same whitehouse we spent millions of senate hearing dollars to try and impeach them! (of all things, for lying)..

How can you say it is because Obama has out spent her? Do you REALLY think her pitiful actions and deceptions has had something to do with her PLUMMET?

If she's losing points in PA, and is being outspent 3 to 1 by the Obama campaign, why doesn't Hillary use some of her $109 million income to boost her campaign when it needs it the most?

We can only hope that the MALES in Pennsylvania will Man Up ; unlike the Govenor and Mayors of Phillie and Pittsburgh , and vote for what is right….not what their wives tell them to do…. Seems like there are mostly women at Hillary Rallies….while………a good cross section at Obama Rallies. PLease all voters in PA. lets end this Hillary nonsense…she has had more than enough opportunites to have won this thing long ago…………please lets end all the money being spent and encouraging selfish motives and end the torture !!!!

QUESTION:

Will one of OBAMA's supporters name 5 things that would make him a better President than Clinton? Please don't say UNITE & CHANGE. Leave out lies because there's not a difference.

Jan,

Your comments are typical of Hillary supporters:

"She is a true a true American and people are going to vote for her
because she is the best to lead this country."

So you are impying then that Obama is not a true American and that he shouldnt be trusted. Fearmongering and slander at its best. Good job!

"Remember Penn is not over run with black voters."

You make black voters sound life a plauge or infestation, likening them to roaches or rats. Your true colors shine through!

"…when the 'true' polls come out…" Clinton will be in the lead. "…when Penn is not 'over run [sic] with black voters…" Clinton will be in the lead. When, when, when…STOP! Just stop already! Clinton is not electable! Nobody trusts her. United States voters want to feel confident about their president again. Obama will bring back that confidence.

election watcher: maybe if you actually read the article, you'd see that it discusses a decline in her lead in polling in PA over the last few weeks. I can't see how "fading" would not be an accurate term to describe it… If you're going to trumpet wild "media bias" claims, at least read the article

Go, O, Go!!!

Wow Jan. You could have summed your entire comment up by just stating "I'm a racist".

I am so so greatful that he is catching up in PA. That's really shows the Super Delgates he can make it thru PRESSURE!!! There is no way any clinton supporter can denied that unless they are in a DREAM WORLD like Ms Clinton ex- first lady!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also check out all the PA people leaving comments. They are really changing there mind about her NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES WE CAN AND YES WE WILL!!!!

Barack Obama Get Use To IT!!!!

it's good to see both candidates fighting so hard. it shows the determination this party really has. we have a beautiful opportunity to change this country for the better. lets stop squabbling over pointless nuancese between these candidates. vote for who you think will be best now and move on. all that matters is that one of the two win in novemeber.

DEMOCRAT 08!

Please fellow democrats lets put our egos away and unite under one candidate to prevent august catastrophy and the republicans from stealing ths one again from us.

He is catching up because voters would prefer the change of a Obama; a fresh suit with honest intentions over Hillary; a pantsuit chock full of lies. Had she been forthright with voters, she would have had more support. But she chose to deceive and to lie. It is the ultimate insult to me as a voter.

Jan Obama voter are not only black watch out.

???? Buy the election, no that's what Clinton tried to do when she and her friends said they would pay for a revote in Michigan. He raised more so he can spend more, plain and simple.

Please end this fiasco Pennsylvania by casting your vote for the inevitable
next president Barack Obama. Help spare us from having to listen to any more desperate pleas from Ms. Clinton….

Jan I don't know how old you are so I don't know how much knowledge you have, but there are more white voters in the US than any other race. And also Obama doesn't have the lead because of blacks voters only. Every nationality votes for him. Not all blacks are voting for him either some are Hillary supporters. Don't you watch the news. And IF Hillary wins PA she still has to win the other states also to have a chance at the nomination. But I think she's douting whether she will win or not. Her trump card now is to get the illegal votes from FL and MI.

Once again, when are people going to LEARN that POLLS DON'T MEAN ANYTHING?! Regardless, Hillary WILL win Pennsylvania by a much LARGER margin than people are anticipating.

She will be the next Democratic nominee, no doubt about it. All the Obama supporters KNOWS that this is TRUE! The superdelegates are going to elect someone who is ELECTABLE in November.

Anyone who thinks otherwise is naive and foolish.

Hillary 08′ 12′

If not Hillary, then McCain!

Better duck Obama, the whole house is comming at you now!!!!!!!! But like Ohio, will prob hit the eye of the storm next Friday…look out here come the Clintons right at you!!! You wont know what hit you and you will have no time to respond, lie or not, it is irrelevant…if you can beat the Clintons and withstand their onslaught, you will get my vote in November….but then again, The Clintons Always Win! no matter what the cost.

Yes we can!

It matters a lot when you get to know this guy, he knows what is about to and he is prepare in the fight for change ahead of him.

When you listen to his message and you get to compare his words vesus Hillary's, you know Obama is real.

Surely, the race in Pennsylvania will be very close, because Hillary's has nothing new to offer. She is running her campaign on name recognition not on messages.

HILLARY HAS NO PLAN TO CHANGE WASHINGTON STYLE OF BUSINESS AS USUAL. WASHINGTON POLITIC IS ALL SHE KNOWS AND TO PROVE IT, SHE HAS some WASHINGTON LOBBYIEST SURROUND HER.

Penns lead will be very tight soon, but Obama will not win Pennsylvenia.

All hail the QUEEN, bow down to your queen of america.

Hil-lie-ary is a plain old washington liar. I saw this last year and decided to give my vote to Obama, not the queen of America.

She is a very bad person for this country, she is in bed with the super rich and has NO CLUE about my daily struggles, piss off lady. Nobody wants to hear your voice anymore. Go retire and enjoy your 109 million dollars from China.( no wonder you stayed with billy boy)

I don't hate her, more like lothe her, and her lies.

"But Clinton continues to remain strong with her core voting bloc of older voters and white women"

Which just shows how many women out there will vote for a person just because she is a woman and for no other reason. Girl power, I guess.

Hillary's creditability is showing.

Polls mean nothing as long as 10% are undecided…. North Carolina had 39% undecided…

The bottomline is ALL of the candidates have lobbyists working for them… that means OBAMA as well… when he makes cracks about not taking money from an Oil Company (which no candidate can do) or lobbyists… he is stretching the truth…

Obama is no different from any of the other candidates… Start looking at the issues and facts… stop looking for reasons to not like either candidate…

If you look at their track record… Obama voted the same way Clinton did in the Senate… In IL he really did not do much except vote over 150 times as present… both candidates do not fair well when it comes to judgement… both have questionable pasts and seem to say whatever it takes to get votes in every state… there really is not a whole lot of difference except for experience…

The good thing about this primary is that all of you are starting to see how little experience Obama has… my question for America are you ready to elect another Bush??? I am not talking about McCain I am talking about someone with very little political experience!!!

On April 22nd Pennsylvania can make history in this Country and Give the Winning vote to Obama, sending away this nightmare called HillBill. We the people are so tired of them. Please vote Obama and help your Country.

So, the author of this article can find no other reason(s) why Sen. Obama is doing well in Pennsylvania? I'm done here…

Seriously … if Barack Obama is the very BEST the democrats can do … it's a sad day for the party. I can't vote for a guy whose foreign policy experience includes where he went to grammar school.

I laugh at these polls – every day there is a new one. Can I say that I have NEVER been asked to participate in one of these polls?

I live in PA. Her lead is slipping because of her own campaign. Right after Ohio I said that people should not confuse PA with Ohio or Philadelhia with Cleveland (or Columbus). Very, very different communities. The more we see of Sen. Clinton, the less we are buying what she is trying to sell! It's not just the cities either…it's in the 'burbs and spreading quickly to the rural areas. Her base here is really the 55 and over crowd…and she's even losing some ground there.

If Sen. Clinton wins PA, it will be by just a few points. Depending on how the delegates are divided, Sen. Obama is very likely to earn more delegates.

OBAMA will win PA and be declared the Nominee. End of Story

If Pennsylvanians really worry about ntheir economic growth . they will wisen up to like Obama despite their known white superirity issues.

Hillary has come out as an unreliable politician who changes like a chameleon to fit the political landscape.
I think PA may well be the state that will put an end to Hillary's rocky style race

God speed, Barack Obama…

The writting is on the wall. Just save yourself and quit now. Save what ever reputation you have left. Just be a gracious loser!

I'm neutral on this election, but sick and tired of biased reporting. The front page link said Clinton is "fading", but she still holds the lead in PA, which isn't exactly fading? Stop trying to tell readers how to think and simply report the facts.

Please folks,

Just google…..Obama Nafta Canada Truth…………

Maybe now you folks will believe that Sen. Clinton is not capable of telling the truth!

Sen. Clinton will do or say anything, to propell her family back into the White House! When this happens, Hillary, Bill, and Chelsea, will each be able to sell their overpriced speeches, making $52million or
more each. Can you begin to imagine what their networth will be over the next four years. While the American Economy is "going to h*ll in a handbasket?

Please PA voters, don't let them fool you into voting for them like they did to your Ohioans counterparts.

The problem is that Hillary needs a BIG win in Pennsylvania to really affect the math in the race. A five or six point victory for her is statistically insignificant. She can win all the states from here to the Convention (highly unlikely) by such slim margins and still be well behind. Obama however needs a win to push her completely out of the race.

Obama, 2008 we want you to win Pennsylvanian

Thanks to the Effort of CNN for Mr. Obama just like how they slandered Al Gore and suppported Bush!!!!! If anybody says anything about Sen Obama its deemed as a racial comment. What about all those negative things that CNN is saying about Sen Clinton? and will anybody be able to critic anything he does?

Wow~ Obama's now serving up Kool-Aid in SIX PACKS! Let is snow, let it snow, let it snow.

PLEASE LISTEN: clinton ahead 20%, then Obama goes into the state and meets the people–then its obama. michigan and florida were all about name recognition. they voted for a name they knew and nobody knew obama. OBAMA HAD TO OVERCOME THIS AT THE START OR HE WOULD NOT BE IN THE POSITION HE IS IN. If they had the vote in California now, he would win. CLUE OR WHAT??? I said in the beginning of all this, i really hope everyone gets to know hillary.

Ofcourse the poll surely will close in as much as Hillary keepon lying and using old politics tactic….it is only the uneducated old white women that will support her because they live in a box……

He's outspending her 3 to 1 – I think its much more than that. The Pittsburgh television and radio stations are completely flooded with his commercials and sound bites. I can't stand to watch our local stations or listen to the radio anymore. He is EVERYWHERE here. Obama is trying to shove himself down our throats. Enough already.

Go away! Please. His commercials and sound bites say nothing about policy; its all about chanting for change. Please stop – I can't stand it anymore.

Obama is outspending HRC because he has the funds to do so. His campaign has also registered tons of new and first time voters that have not been counted or polled yet. PA is going to be much closer than these polls are predicting. He has gotten key union backers and has not done anything pitiful (like bowling on Ellen, dodging sniper fire on Leno, more 3am ads, ….)

Jan: "Remember Penn is not over run with black voters."

You might want to hide your overt racism better if you are gonna support Hillary.

creative woody,
Are you capable of cognitive thought?
Just another mouthpiece for Wolfson and Penn, like all the Hillary supporters. Have an original thought you people, thanks so much.

She's being outspent by the 'underdog' — Interesting that Clinton was castigated for the money she was raising before the run and no one cares about how Obama is outspending her wildly. There should be a limit on these things: Obama's trying to buy the election.

DEMS STICK TOGETHER!

All Dems need to unite so we can get the troops out of Iraq.

VOTE DEMS FOR THE WHITE HOUSE!

Angus McDugan – You're absolutely right, but we'll never hear about it. Things like that require investigative journalism and major news networks don't do that kind of stuff any more. They leave it to independent organizations and then cite their stories in their own coverage. If you want that kind of info on candidates, you gotta look it up for yourself… it's unfortunate, huh?

Hillary's used her past experience to her advantage like that, knowing that the major networks won't look it up and they haven't! CBS had footage of her Bosnia trip, but noone looked for it until SINBAD (of all people) said something about it.

For the rest of the info, you gotta wait til opposing political campaigns look it up themselves and even then, you gotta check their information too! Serious analysis and fact checking is a thing of the past.

If there is any mercy in this world Obama will win in November. No more war, No more lies. Enough already. Clinton is O.K. I guess. I would love to see a woman in the White House. Just not her. She lies and has shady dealings. Just like Penn. He is still a part of her team. Just hiding behind her now. She has turned herself into a walking joke.

Creative Woody, you hit it right on the head. Clinton is like that zombie you keep hacking with an axe that just won't go away.

Thing is though, she just doesn't have any money to spend. Obama does, so he's going all out in an attempt to finally shut her out for good. The polls have been narrowing for months, and as long as she continues to make herself look bad, he'll continue to capitalize on it.

She can predict "twists & turns" and say that "Penn won't matter" and compare herself to Rocky Balboa or a basketball team or whatever she wants. At the end of primary season, when the dust settles, Obama will be our Democratic nominee for president, and go on to win the general election.

Wake up and smell the roses – they're really fabulous.

Obama 08!

Senator Clinton, you're done. You've lost. Face facts and step aside graciously, save your party the damage of a major fight.

Remember, folks, all that money he's spending on advertising comes from other Americans who support him and want to get the word out. Woo hoo! Way to go!

Obama '08!

Why is Penn still working for the Hillary campaign if he was supposedly fired? He is prepping her for the PA debates right now. So get ready for more dirt and distraction.

"Hillary Clinton; get elected or lie trying."

Stop trying to say she is behind when she is actually in the lead, just because the news media wants a black man in office to ruin this country does not mean the rest of us want it. Quit shoving him down our throats!!!!!!!!!

If Hillary can't run a good campaign, with dignity and success, however would she Hope to run against the Republicans and win?

Time to bow out Hillary. At this point you are a punch line to a bad joke.

I am so so greatful that he is catching up in PA. That's really shows the Super Delgates he can make it thru PRESSURE!!! There is no way any clinton supporter can denied that unless they are in a DREAM WORLD like Ms Clinton ex- first lady!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Also check out all the PA people leaving comments. They are really changing there mind about her NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES WE CAN AND YES WE WILL!!!!

I can give you another reason, Pennsylvanian voters are starting to learn about what a fraud Hillary is!!!

Older voters. White women. And the less educated (left out of this report).

Rather than bash this constituency…I'd like to appeal to it. Your BEST INTERESTS are not reflected by Hillary Clinton.

Don't let the fear of something new hurt your ability to understand that "new" often means BETTER. Barack Obama is interested in what you have to say AFTER the election is over. It's been the way he's conducted business in over 20 years of politics.

Don't be afraid to reach for something MORE than you already have. The country needs to move in a new direction. You can help the country do that…by being brave enough to stand up for something–someone–better.

~

Obama will end up cutting her lead from 20 points down to 1 or 2 … in the end he may technically lose but this would be considered a huge win!

I also believe that if Clinton can't win by at least 10 points then she should drop out of the race as this would show her inability to win when given a huge points advantage.

As for why she will only win by 1 – 3 points or maybe even lose this state…

LIES … yes Clinton's amazing habit of getting caught in her own lies and then trying to blame everyone around her (or bad mouth Obama) does not only look very unpresidential but it also makes Obama who has taken the high road almost at every chance look very presidential.

The other spin off from Clinton's lies is that Obama looks like the change this country needs.

As for Obama out spending Clinton… he is not out spending her, it is the 1 million plus people who have donated to Obama that are out spending her!

It is no longer a campaign but a movement of change…

How accurate are these polls? Wasn't it yesterday they said it was a 7-pt lead, now it's 6 pts? Did they make a bunch of phone calls last night? I think these daily poll updates are misleading and a waste of hard drive space.

Hillary's campaign theme is "Get elected and LIE trying."

Gergen was very critical of Obama last night. I want to know the
truth about Canada Nafta trick Hillary and Bill pulled on Obama
the eve of the Ohio elections. No time for Obama to defend himself.
Bill and Hillary knew EXACTLY what they were doing and they knew
the precise timing, hours before Ohio Primaries. Hillary won Ohio
by lying. Obama had 14 wins before Ohio. Something fishy about
that story, MR.Gergen???
The Clintons "CHARITABLE DONATION" went to their OWN FOUNDATION. So, what about how much Clinton's care about the
poor?
Hillary can't quit now. She needs the campaign money to keep
coming in. If she quit now, she would owe more than $20 Million
of her own MONEY????

Here it comes… the Obama Express. Make way!
Yes, we can. Yes, we can. Yes, we can.

To all the Clinton supporters who whine about CNN not covering your candidate, have a look at this ticker history. 5 McCain articles, 8 Clinton articles (including one on a new ad, her bowling, the olympics and a basketball game – real pithy issues), and one for Obama – this one. She doesn't need to fundraise as much. Her name just draws time.

Right – it's just the money, of course! Nothing else, just the fact that poor Hillary Clinton can't afford, with her incredible personal wealth, to spend enough money in PA.

Obama also hasn't lied repeatedly in the past several weeks or been forced to fire anyone from his campaign for helping Colombia negotiate a trade deal that Obama is against. Has it ever occurred to you, Mrs. Clinton, that maybe part of the reason his stock is rising is because yours is sinking? Or maybe that the American people care about the truth?

There is no way Obama is going to win in Penn, When the true polls
come out Penn voters are not that stupid. He can spend all the money he wants, but Hillary will still win.

She is a true a true American and people are going to vote for her
because she is the best to lead this country.

Remember Penn is not over run with black voters.

Hillary is lying because of her boldfaced lies: "A bold-faced (or barefaced) lie is a lie told when it is obvious to all concerned that it is a lie. For example, the child with chocolate all over her face who denies having eaten the cake is a bold-faced liar. The adjective "bold-faced" indicates that no attempt has been made to hide the fact that it is a lie."

She did this with her support for NAFTA, her Bosnia story, and more. She has lost all credibility with me as a voter.

The world is watching the downfall of the American Empire. If something is not done – MAJOR CHANGE – on the international stage – it will only continue to fall.

I for one am very happy Obama is doing so well, and I know from watching international news I am not alone.

Americans – don't shoot yourself in the foot by electing another Republican.

Buying the presidency.

Hopefully in 2 weekd

PA will see through all the lies !

And let her mis-managed efforts RIP!

Gogo informed electorate.

George Bush is an idiot, and those sheep who follow him anywhere with the blood of American soliders over their heads are idiots, too.

Lieberman is a puppet, and does not care about America.

The politics of fear will no longer work with Americans.

From the article: "But Clinton continues to remain strong with her core voting bloc of older voters and white women"

Too bad there are more people out there than just old white women. I can just see the new talking point/spin:
If only old white women were allowed to vote, Hillary would be winning!!

Seems to me she should have been chipped away along time ago. She's like a never ending nightmare.

Worse than a bad hangover!

Go away woman.

The margin will narrow as long as Hillary keeps talking. Why has the news not followed-up on her involvement with her husband's pardoning all those criminals.

WHY IS CNN ALWAYS SO CRITICAL OF OBAMA??!!
CLINTON STILL LEADS IN PA!!
CLINTON IS AN UNDERDOG FIGHTER WHO WILL WIN IN NOVEMBER!!
OBAMA'S PASTOR IS A RACIST!!
PENN'S DEALINGS HAD NOTHING TO DO WITH CLINTON'S CAMPAIGN!!

Did I get them all Hillary supporters?
