Go OBAMA!!! You are the best candidate!

I am truly amused by people who blame Hillary for being Divisive. Please, I have followed the electoral process for over 30 years. She is no more divisive than most, Obama on the other hand is extraordinarily divisive, but is a master at not taking any responsibility. He is the one I fear. I do hope that people wake up before its too late

I'm done with democrats and republicans, regardless of who wins the nomination. this entire process has been a freak show with the media as the ringmaster. i'm voting for nader.

Just try and make Clinton drop out of the race and see whats going to happen. If the so called "party elders" try and boot her out of the race because of Obama and his worshippers, many of us Clinton supporters will either vote McCain or not vote at all. I want them to try it!!

There is no way that I can vote for that woman who just manipulates people and is a big liar!

HIllary supporters would rather vote for McCain or any other idiot rather than vote for Barack Obama. It's anyone but him. This should be a sign to the super delegates. If the Democratic party wouldn't pick Hillary, I'm sure there will be retribution and I'm all for it. If they pick Barack Huseein Obama, it will be the Democaratic Party's downfall. The horse will be trumpled again by the elephant!

All you Clinton dimwits who want to vote for McCain is "her highness" is not the Democratic candidate, please do. But don't come crying back with your hat in hand, looking for a handout after you've lost your jobs overseas and your neighbors or brothers (and tax dollars) have been shipped off to support the Iraqi States if America.

I can't decide who disgusts me more: the Clinton supporters who'll never support Obama because he's not a woman, or because he's black; or the Obama supporters who'll never support Clinton because she's not Obama, or because she's a woman.

Get real. I've already taught my five-year-old not to take his Pokemon cards and run away every time his older sister doesn't do exactly what he wants. He's learning that he has to be a 'big boy'. That he needs to learn to cooperate and make the best of less than perfect. That he needs to learn to cooperate.

There's a whole bunch of you that need to learn that, too. If you're so intent on having your own way, and would rather vote for Bush Light than a Democrat if you can't have way, then the next time you think this country is going to crap, don't blame George Bush. Take a good long look in a mirror.

Grow up, Dems. Quit whining and get ready to support whoever will end this Neocon nightmare as quickly as possible. Even if it's not your favorite color or gender.

Add my name to the list of Clinton supporters who will never vote for Obama, Wolf. I've been a democrat all my life from local elections on up, but they've lost my loyalty with their disenfranchising voters, scheming to award delegates to a candidate who didn't win those delegates, and trying to force my candidate to drop out and leave me with no choice of vote. These actions should be seen as the serious threat to our Constitution that they actually are. Why doesn't anyone mention that Rev. Jesse Jackson stayed in the race until Nov.?

I am one of the lifetime democrats that will vote republican if Obama gets the nomination. Here is why: When my sons were teenagers, I repeatedly gave them this advice, "Choose your friends wisely because birds of a feather flock together." Obama's friends are slum lords, and criminals, and preachers of hate. If he can't choose better friends in his personal life, what friendships will he develop as a president?

I agree that the BITTER campaign has hurt the Democrats, Hillary & Bill will be responsible for the McCain victory in November. What side are they on? On THEIR side, of course.

Who cares who had a beer or whiskey, who said what or misspoke? CAN WE PLEASE GET BACK TO THE ISSUES?

The Democratic Leadership deserves all of the worry they get!!! They are almost useless. I have little confidence in Howard Dean, and not much more in Nancy Pelosi.

If the Republicans win, it will be the easiest win in the worst time for the Republicans to win in history.

They will have let Sen Clinton who is so darned despirate to win, ruin the party and they deserve it if they let her.

Hillary is ahead with registered Democrats. Obama takes the popular vote lead with independents and republicans.

Once and for all, say it with me: President Barack Obama.
It is time for all of us oldies to get out of the way for the future.

They should be Obama becoming a liability with all his excuses , lies and where he get's his money from that can be Chek Out on Fact Check. org going back to Jan. 2008.

With people starving all over the world, an unjust war, our economy in the toilet and our educational systems failing our children; isn't it time to get over this petty in fighting and come together for the good of the country??
I am an Obama supporter and think he's made a few mistakes but all and all has run a better campaign and is a better promise for my grandchildren's future. I hope the DNP and the candidates get together and make a decsion that will allow us all to move forward,. It's time to put ego and self interests aside and actually do what's right for our country.

When the campaigns of both of them started I had decided to support whoever our democratic nominee is in the general election. I would have supported Hillary or Barack, but I have had a change of heart.

Hillary and her husband Bill Clinton, have proved to be a very divisive people who don't care about the party, she only cares about herself, and she will destroy anyone who gets in her way.

She seems to feel a sense of entitlement to the office of the presidencey. She is completely out of line in attacking someone who is on the same team as she is. I will never, ever vote for her. If she is the nominee I will most likely not vote at all, because I would not waste my vote on John Mc Cain.

Clinton supports we don't need your vote anyway…we have more than enough support for Obama to be president …so take your vote and shove it….

GO OBAMA!!!!!

Count me in the percentage that would NEVER vote for Hillary.

I can't stand Rush…but he's right…this campaign is Operation Caos. Time for the elders to do their job and pull Billary from this thing before they destroy the party…which may happen when she unleashes her next kitchen sink attack this week.

Just stop it!!! The real issue is that if you're a real democrat and believe in what they stand for on all the issues, then the bottom line is that when it gets right down to it, you're gonna vote democrat; no question. But if you have some beef rather if it's a black man or a woman, then it's clear that "issue #1″ is really your "issue #2."

It's really disappointing to see people saying that "If Hillary doesn't get it, I'm voting for McCain" or that "If Obama doesnt' get it, I'm voting for McCain". How can any intelligent person be willing to vote for someone(i.e. McCain)whose views are exactly opposite of their preferred candidate?

Put aside this bickering and get real: Vote in the best interest of this train wreck economy, our schools, or the TROOPS! A McCain presidency would exasperate all of those problems. Trillions more on a pointless war means havoc for our economy and schools.

If Obama becomes the nominee, I VOTING MCCAIN!

Hillary Clinton is a pathelogical liar!!!! She is much too dangerous to be POTUS!! If anybody missed it, Tim Russert ripped Hillary to shreads yesterday on "Meet the Press." If she ends up screwing Barack out of his hard fought win, then I'm afraid I'll have to sit this election out. Or maybe vote for Nadar.

I am a good Democrat girl. I will vote for the eventual Democratic Nominee, whomever it is. I have to. All Democrats have to! Do we want another third Bush Term, staying 100 years or more in Iraq just because your choice didn't win? You have to stay with your party! People who say they will vote for McCain if they're person doesn't win are just being immature babies. This primary battle is getting pretty nasty though and our party elders and super delegates should be paying attention. It could be that there is irreversible damage being done. I also think that if the super delegates overturn the votes of pledged delegates, popular votes and states won there is going to be real problem Wolf!

When I was growing up, I was told that if you throw a rock at a pack of dogs, the one that gets hit yells the loudest. Sounds like Barack accurately described a lot of people and they are upset that their secret is out. Instead of looking inward to see that there are some things they need to change, they lash out at him for telling the truth openly. Unfortunately sometimes the truth hurts.

Tell me who is happy about the state of America today? Tell me who hasn't had to pray just a little harder about trying to make ends meet or just say thank you for things being as well as they are. Also, what american has not noticed that there are a lot of foreigners coming over to America taking good jobs making good money.

People are acting like he made all this stuff up. He didn't and its the main people that need the help he is trying to give that will continue to stay in the situation they are in.

You can either sit here and be bitter for another 4 years or you can try to be better…. Just do the right thing.

If Hillary were to get the nomination, I don't think I would vote… as hard as that is for me to say. I think Obama truly offers us a chance to come back together. I guess that message just isn't as popular as I thought it was amongst Americans. I truly respect Senator Clinton, but she is indeed a "fighter," but of Republicans more than anything… she's someone you want on your side, but we need a "uniter" to lead us forward, I believe.

All the poll truly shows is that TRUE Democrats will with the party. It just happens that most TRUE Dems are in Obamas corner. I wish people would wake up and look at who will get something accomplished with the United States of America. It is in shambles and Hillary is kicking the pieces off to the side while she tries to get what she THINKS she is entitled to.

Obama '08

AL GORE FOR PRESIDENT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hillary should stay in through the convention — our founding fathers meant for citizens to have the right to vote for the candidate of their choice. If Hill drops out, that would not be possible. These old democrats need to back out and shut up. Let the democratic process continue. If they think Obama can't win because the election process continues, then he shouldn't be the nominee anyway. Count Michigan and Florida as the votes stand, no matter how hard Obama and his reps fight to take them away. That is the American way!
Hillary 2008

Can everyone who is tempted to write "Obama is an empty suit" and offers no plans spend just 2 minutes to google OBAMA BLUEPRINT FOR CHANGE.

I am particularly interested in education and energy policy and was thrilled to see his plans and ieas – right on target.

Bitter, angry, upset, bothered, disenchanted…WHAT is the difference? these folks ARE bitter at the process, bitter because they don't feel like politicians pay attention to them, bitter that for whatever reason we can't be adult about our differences. At this point McCain doesn't have to do any work to divide Democrats, Hillary is doing ALL the work herself. How childish to hang on to a man's every work to validate your candidacy. Shame on you Hillary! my solution? The Republicans should drop McCain and nominate Hillary so Obama can beat her again!

I am disgusted by Clinton, if she wins through her divisive techniques, I am one who will sadly stay home…I can't bring myself to vote Republican, but I WILL NOT support Clinton. By the way, I am a white, well-educated woman, always a democrat, but I am sick and tired of politics as usual….I want to see the change I think Barack Obama can bring to this country. Obama and Gore, or Obama and Edwards, yes, they can count on me, but if Clinton's on the ticket, count me out!

so from what i am reading the clinton supporters are saying if obama wins the primary with more states won, more pledge delicates, and more of the popular vote , they will either not vote or vote for mccain in novemeber! wow it is glad to see that after all the support the african american community has given the democratic party and escpecially the clintons that they would vote mccain then to support the democratic party in novemeber! will the real democreats please stand up for what is right!

Definitely!! I will not vote for Obama if he gets the nomination. I honestly believe he would not be good for the country. I have been a Democrat since I could vote, but I would just go Independent. I just can't see Obam being a good leader. Come back in 10 years when there's some experience!!

Hey, Obama supporters. If Hillary wins stay home-we don't need your votes. He can't even speak without making a mistake or stuttering.

Debra,

He did not say that at all. He said that because of the feeling that no one in Washington is listening to the economic distress and problems, people cling to and focus on ancillary issues such as immigration (or not), religion (or not), etc. Perhaps you should try reading the entire text of what was said instead of believing what you read by the "mainstream" media that provides sound bites only.

Wow, I am amazed that people here think Hillary has the power to change an election. How does she do that by herself? She needs to team up with David Copperfield!

Hillary is unelectable. Obama is the the only choice for me. I can't even stand to see this women's face on tv any more and listen to the poison that comes out of forked tongue mouth of hers.

It is true and probably too late to save the Dem Party this election. As an Ind. I voted for Bush, I had planned to vote for Obama but believe he may have to step aside for Clinton to avoid her scorching the earth under our feet, she is a scorned woman out of control. If elected I fear she is capable of starting WWIII

Bill & Hillary Clinton don't seem to agree on anything.

What's up with that?

Kind of makes you wonder what kind of candidate Hillary would really be?

Diane, Obama is a frumpy, ugly never- been, and never will be!!!

Go Hillary!!!

Becky, there are more of us than there are of you!!

Go Hillary!!!

Count me in that group and I am as blue dog of a democrat as it gets!! I just cannot and will not accept Obama as the nominee and certainly not as the President.

I am so tired of miss hillary getting away with all of her corruption and lies and telling people what they want to hear and doing something different!!! It's called dishonesty!

Barack has not gotten dirty until this new stupidity came out. I can not even believe it. He is the best candidate that has come along in along time.

If Barack gets this stolen from him after bringing so many people into the party I am also done. I will vote for McCain, and your polls you take on the Obama side are not accurate because these new people that have come aboard will not support hillary. I am appalled that she is allowed to even bring attacks when she has so much dirt on her. Wow I am amazed and will be watching what happens not on the news media because they are biased also, but through Baracks website.

I truly do not trust HRC. I hate the thought of the Clintons bac k in the White House. I would definately vote for McCain if she would get the nomination!

The misogynists Elton John spoke of at his concert for Hillary are out in full force here.

I despise both Clinton and Obama, but when November rolls around, almost all of their supporters are going to vote for the Democratic nominee. They're not going to sit home or vote for McCain.

I wish it weren't so, but Democrats WILL suck it up and vote for their candidate in November.

why does the liberal media not follow up or ask the questions that refer to Obama's relationship with terrorist organization "weathermen " responsible for bombings of federal buildings? He has a marxist point of view and the liberal media covers for him. How about reporting and quit editorializing.

Without the base numbers, the percentages alone are almost meaningless.

I have always voted independent in the elections. I wholeheartedly support Barack Obama but if Hillary gets the nomination I will back her as it is the issues that count. Politicians all make mistakes but it is the basic beliefs that count. Ending this war is the way to vote, health care is the way to vote, creating new jobs is the way to vote. I hope Barack wins, but my heart is behind a stronger United States of America and that will not happen if we have four more years of the same ideology.

Without the base numbers, the percentages alone are almost meaningless.

I will never vote for Lying Clinton…and after today, McCain either.

Somewhere in my logic, I felt McCain might have morals. Guess Not. He jumped on the Hillary bandwagon because he knows who he doesn't want in the fall election running against him – Obama!

Gun totin', whiskey drinkin', "I am the only one who feels your pain", elitist Hillary – what a joke!

I think Nader is on the ticket somewhere…

I might vote for him in the fall just to prove a point.

Here we go again! Who's the nastiest of them all in this election? Who's the one who's lied time and time again? By serving as 1st Lady to the Govenor and in the White House does not qualify as experience; as Hillary has laid out. She has one term more as a Senator than he does; but she never served on the state level. She's much of the same and will drive the Democractic Party in the ground because she want to win at whatever cost! People.. wake up and end this thing!

Oh good grief!!!
start playing the violins and mandolins!
The Billary supporters and singing a sad song! If Billary cared about the DNC, she would be out of the race by now. She does not care if the DNC is ruined as long as she goes down with a fight and brings all with her.
Stop cryin' her woes, she says she's tough then let her be tough. poor, poor Billary….there, there
grief!

The DNC should be worried! I promise you if Obama gets the nomination this is one life-long Democrat who will vote for McCain.

To all the voters who will no longer be voters:
Will you all hold your breath until you turn blue, too? Threats like these are childish, as are all these gutter-level comments being tossed back and forth at each other.

If any Democrat chooses to vote for McCain, well, then they weren't a Democrat to begin with. And if they do vote for McCain, please don't listen to them complain when we invade Iran.

Grow up, fools

What a bunch of babies. Why don't you take your toys and go home. Which party do you really want to run the country?

The next president will be Hillary Clinton or John McCain. Obama might buy the Dem nomination but he is not electable in the general.

Obama’s latest ill advised remarks behind closed doors reveal what he really thinks. His words were elitist and racist. This arrogant, mocking, condescending, mean, attacking, uncivil, power hungry ego maniac is not fit to be president of the USA.

The party doesn't matter anymore. It is all about who will be the best president in 08!

We will never vote for Obama. He is great about talking change (to worse?) Words are just words America! Obama will not win, because we will make sure he doesn't.

If not Hillary, then McCain! There is NO other option!

i see people wont vote for obama thats sad really shows that the american people do not want their lives to change just keep it the way it is thats disturbing really. Barack tells the truth and i see some cant handle the truth sad again in the fact we are told to tell the truth at very young ages. But yet instead of hope they want to stay in a war and keep the people in office that really do not care but ok so be it im vorting to change something in america. im 24 years old and see that america is bitter and blames things on everyone else but themselves for getting in the position there in.

I used to be a Democrat. I can confirm that Mr. Blitzer is correct.

Dems will lose in November.

I will not vote for Hillary or McCain… I will do a write-in on the ballot or stay home. I will never put Hillary in office….not now and not 4 years from now… Never. So if Obama losses the Dems will loose and the people of America will loose….I am tired of loosing.

Have any of you read Carl Bernsteins blog yesterday? Maybe youshould. Get over Hillary? She's a frumpy old has-been. She also is the ONE who started throwing the so-called MUD in the first place.
GROW UP PEOPLE!!!! OBAMA '08

IMO, the elders should be worried. One only needs to read the comments on this board. But don't blame the candidates. There is no reason why either Hillary or Obama should drop out the race. Blame the ridiculous nomination process–one that the Democrats created. A system that is not winner-take-all-delegates, and a system that allows superdelegates to vote independently. The democrats created the crazy system, so live with it.

Oh, they're not worried. Keep in mind you're talking about delusional people who still think all they have to do to win this year is say Bush stole the 2000 election. A news flash, Dems: Bush ain't on the ballot!

The question they ought to be asking is this: "How is it that we are on the brink of (if not in) a recession, have an unpopular war with a supporter of that war as the opponent but we're still dead even in the polls?"

The Dems ought to be fifteen points ahead. But not only are they not ahead, they're destroying the party trying to find a nominee. Mark my words, Hillary Clinton is going to make sure Obama doesn't win the general if he gets the nomination.

Do you REALLY think her goal in life was to be a New York Senator? Why should you think that goal – that she had as a child – ever changed?

IF YOU COUNT THE POPULAR VOTE IN FLORIDA, WHERE BOTH CANDIDATES APPEARED ON THE BALLOT, YET NEITHER CAMPAIGNED, IT WOULD BOOST CLINTON'S POPULAR VOTE TOTAL BY OVER 300K, WITHOUT EVEN COUNTING MICHIGAN. IF WE WERE TO COUNT MICHIGAN'S RESULTS, THE POPULAR VOTE WOULD BE NECK AND NECK, SO TELL ME WHY AGAIN HILLARY SHOULD DROP OUT? IF ANYTHING OBAMA SHOULD DROP OUT, HE WILL NEVER WIN THE GENERAL. IF MANY OF THESE REVEALING THINGS HAD COME OUT PRIOR TO EARLY PRIMARY STATES, OBAMA WOULD HAVE BEEN LONG GONE.
GO HILLARY!!!!!!!!! JUST SAY NObama.

I tell you what then people, vote for McCain and get more of the same!!!! That's like cutting your nose off to spite your face. Some of you people in this country vote to emotionally and not logically. Use the common sense God gave you if He gave you any.

Whatever happens to this country from here on out will be you Hillary and McCain supporter's fault!!!!!! Sometimes you ask for what you want and get what you got!!!!!! Don't cry and whine about what you should have done when things go south for you and your family.

OBAMA 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Vote against a LIAR. Vote Obama 08′, no more Clintons!!!!!!!!!

If Hillary doesn't win I'll vote for McCain, and I've never voted anything but democrat. Don't give me crap about Hillary being devisive either. Obama is the one that attended a racist church for 20 years, thinks everyone is small towns is bitter, doesn't understand that you can want a gun to hunt, and attend a church that isn't racist! Obama is devisive…oh, and then makes fun o Hillary because she can take shot of whiskey. Be a man nobama, or I'll vote for the other, but I'd rather vote for Hillary!

obama has the only chance against mccain and the whole world knows it..

lets look at HRC's big voter base, the elderly, they will vote a friendly honest mcCain over a bitter and lying hillary anyday of the week.

HRC claims the experience card over OBama.. well she doesnt have half the experience of McCain

she claims to know more about military dealings than Obama.. well McCain is a war vet and former POW.. how can you contend with that??

right now republican voters are switching over and voting hillary, and she welcomes it with open arms.. McCain doesnt attack hillary, ever wonder why? and all these new voters signing up are mainly supporting Obama, where do you think they will go in November if HRC wins?? they will feel cheated once again by washington fat cats..

please america wake up and make Canada and the world believe in you again

to: Sam, Muncie, Ind.

a few Clinton supporters – think again and stop being lied to Campel Brown, Candy Crowley, Chris Matthews who all are under Obama kool aid drink.

South does not like Obama! Is that clear to everyone!

Yes, that is correct. I am an avid Obama supporter and I will NEVER
vote for a cunning, trickster of a liar. NEVER. I hate that woman.
She can't quit because she and Bill would owe their campaign
$20 M. and have to pay it out of her own pocket. Bill would divorce
her.

A real democrat will vote for the best person for the job. If it isn't Hillary then McCain. Obama wouldn't even be a good dog catcher!!!!

GO HILLARY!!

Is the "dream ticket" the Dems only hope?

Although enthusiastic about Clinton's campaign at the start, I was soon turned off by her divisive tactics. She and Bill both come across as shameless and avaricious.
Her strategy now seems to be to damage Obama beyond repair to reduce his chances of beating McCain.
Obama will prevail and will be the best President this country has had in many, many years.

Face it……
55% or more of Democrats don't like Hillary!
Independents prefer Obama, then McCain, and Hillary last!
Republicans naturally prefer McCain, then Obama, and Hillary last!

It's clear, a large majority of Americans don't like Hillary!!!!

Majority of Democrats like Obama!
Majority of Independents like Obama!
Even alot of Republicans like Obama over their own candidate!

Hillary cannot win the Primary!
So she definetely cannot win the General Election, with majority of Demcorats, Independents, and Republicans against her!

If Hillary, were to get the primary nomination handed to her by Superdelegates, then that is just giving McCain the Presidency!!!!

45% of Democrats might not like it, but Obama is the Winner! Plus he is the only person that can beat McCain! So that 45% of Democrats need to wake up now and put their support behind Obama, so tha we don't end up with another Republican like Bush in the Whitehouse again!!!

As most of you already know, Barack Obama has gotten himself into another controversy regarding his apparent arrogance and apathy towards regular Americans. In a private and well shrouded fundraiser amongst the rich elite of San Francisco, and in the mansion of Pakistan native and ardently Muslim millionaire Sohaib Abbasi (CEO of Informatica), Obama was recorded saying: “You go into these small towns in Pennsylvania and, like a lot of small towns in the Midwest, the jobs have been gone now for 25 years and nothing’s replaced them. And they fell through the Clinton administration, and the Bush administration, and each successive administration has said that somehow these communities are going to regenerate and they have not. And it’s not surprising then they get bitter, they cling to guns or religion or antipathy to people who aren’t like them or anti-immigrant sentiment or anti-trade sentiment as a way to explain their frustrations.” In the same speech, Obama is also recorded as saying that: “When people tell me they’ve all stressed about racial discord, well, you know, try slavery for a while,” obviously playing on the sentiments of these highly affluent (White and Arab) people who would basically presume that if you have dark skin in America you must therefore be connected in some way to slavery, although, as we all know, this is CLEARLY not the case.

Another racist remark from Obama! Shame on you!!!

Sorry, no self-respecting democrat could vote for mccain – those saying they wouldn't vote for obama or clinton but would stray from the party are just throwing a temper tantrum. they'll eventually come to their senses and support the dem candidate.

Actually, I DO believe the 90s can come back.

Why? If a President believes that you can and MUST balance the budget, provide Health Care for everyone, and get OUT of Iraq…if a President Believes that you can and MUST heal the US relationship with the world…

I will take STRONG conviction over hope any day of the week.

(I hope things might change) Obama supporters
(I Believe things MUST Change and Not in November, BUT TODAY) Clinton supporters.

Hillary 08

If Obama lose the democratic nominee, its his own fault. He exposed his true self. Arrogant and Elitist.

Hillary is a lying sh-t disturber and she needs to bow out NOW.
Pennsylvania can help, I hope.

Mendoza nomination process has not ended! Obama is not the officialy nominee, yet! As for me and other democratics I know, if Obama is the nominee we will be voting for McCain.

Let it be clear to all of the Obama supporter in this blog – no Obama EVER!

The fact of the matter is that a large number of Obama voters would not vote at all if it comes down to Clinton and McCain. They have not taken this responsibility serious before, so I have to believe they really dont care about a "good candidate" just the first "black canidate".

I'm a true democrat, and to those people who said they would vote for McCain just to get revenge on Obama (or Clinton) then shame on you. Look, I'm an Obama supporter and I do hope that Obama wins the nomination, but if Clinton wins, then I'm going to back her candidacy. They both have very similar opinions on many of the issues and they both want to end the war in Iraq. So in my opinion, whoever the democratic nominee is (hopefully Obama) the party will need to unite and fight John McCain in the general election so we can take back the White House, and make sure that we can repair our relationships, build and fix our economy, finally bring our troops home, and finally lead America like we did back in World War II.

If the media were fair they would really run the story on the attacks and mocking of his very oppponet Hillary;

It is sad and disappointing that the media has come down hard on Hillary but to be condescending is something else.

How dare he. Shame on OBAMA. A hipocrit is always a hipocrit….Different kind of politician. NO He is the most scary of all. he is underminding not only his life but his family's for the continuous llies and deceitful thing he says and does. Factcheck had it right. let the people know the truth. Cnn that is your very problem. Sexism is alive and well.

Hillary will prevail Rise Rise Rise People will see through Obama and it will be soon rather than later. Mark my words Women for Hillary….White typical people for Hillary, AA for Obama, how can you win in the General Election LOL

what i do not understand is if obama wins the primary with more states won, more of the popular vote, and more pledge delicates then what is the issue? he played by the rules and would have earn the nonmination fair and square. if clinton had won the same then as a democrat i would support her! so get a grip democrats and lets win in novemeber!

CNN is completely slanted and biased in favor of Hillary Clinton. Whatever happened to objective reporting?

Wolf,
Clinton has herd from the people of Pennsylvania, now when will you get it.

Is this a lead way to justify giving Hillary the dem. nomination???????

I DO NOT want Obama as our president. No thank you.

I think the term "Dem elders" in the subject line of this thread is rather elitist.

Obama, if anyone else said the things you did and did the things you have done with your voting record and church, they would be out by now.

Jim:

Have you just realized that CNN is an Obama's Properganda Net Work? They've become pathetic – I stopped watching CNN completely.

McCain 08!

80% Of Americans don't support Obama!

Hillary is McCain's golden girl. Anything she does reflects positively on him the longer she stays in the race. If she gets the nomination, McCain will win – We just can't afford this.

If Obama wins the nominations i will either not vote or vote for McCain.

Of course I would never vote for Obama. I don't know that America would still be America if he spent four years in office. He is not a patriotic American and has no knowledge of how to run a country. Go Hillary!!

mary April 14th, 2008 4:32 pm ET

I am from Michigan and apparently my vote wasn't good enough for the Democrats in January soooooo it won't be good in November. McCain you just got another vote!!!!

Good mary that puts him at 14 votes for the GE……..nationwide.

Voting down party lines is stupid.

If Obama Wins This country is lost. It will be another 4 years of miss statements and promises that will not be kept..This country needs a leader and Obama is not the one .

What an interesting race this year. The democrat candidates are a pair of nut-jobs and the republican candidate is a liberal.

Clinton supporters include quite a numberof racists – pure, and simple.

Obama should run as an independent and kick both McCain and Billary to the curb!

Another lifelong Democrat that will vote for McCain over Obama…

Lets get on with this…the writings on the wall. Why are we wasting time? If we stop following Clinton around w/ cameras then the bickering stops.

Easy.

Not now, not ever, no way, NOBAMA. For only the "Wright" reasons!!!!!!

I will never vote for Obama! There is just to much that we really don't know about him. What I read and see, I do not trust! His name was mentioned to day in the Rezko trial. There is a relationship between Obama, Rezko and Auchi, and there is more to come.

The Obamanation groupies need to go back and read the article. 26% more votes will be lost if Obama is the dem on the ticket with McCain. At this time, it is down to the best of three evils and at least with Hillary or McCain, I know what I will get. Obama has to many skeletons in his closet to trust him not counting the latest dribble from his mouth. He should go back to Chicago.

OJ,

I know exactly what you mean, they do it:

"BECAUSE THEY CAN"!

Is it too early to start forming our strategy for taking the Whitehouse back from mcCain in 2012?

I would never vote for a candidate who says words behind closed doors that are insulting and allude to bigotry.

Not to mention allowing supporters to laugh in the backround without stopping them.

Obama will never win in the general election.

I think like an altercation on the playground, we need to see who started it and why. Then the two "kids" need to sit down in a room together with an impartial mediator and agree on the rules for their future peaceful interactions.

If Hillary steals the nomination, I'm writing in OBAMA.

He's the only chance we've got.

Go Hillary!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It is clear that Hillary's supporters are uneducated. You have no scruples…and all of you should move to the deep south. Get a life!

Please Pennsylvania: End the drama, vote Obama!

Just a bunch of hype…

"Real democrats" are not traitors by threatening to vote for McCain if Hillary is not nominated.

All theatrics – spare me the insults and threats Clinton fans.

RSP April 14th, 2008 1:27 pm ET

Why does CNN.com publish 90% pro-Obama comments? Are you trying to influence the voters? Is this the moderators' personal bias? Or are Obama supporters college kids supported by mom and dad with too much time on their hands, so they simply blog pro-obama drivel all day long?

CNN, and MSNBC has become Obama's Properganda net work.

Well it sounds like it's the Clintonistas who are bitter. LOL!

WHY CNN WHY DO YOU DELETE THE TRUE OBAMA STATEMENTS TAKEN FROM HIS BOOK “Dreams of My Father.”

Obama Lost my Vote …

Hillary is the Only one who can win the Republican

CNN is a joke, why are you moderating truthful statements and deleting them?

in times when you can't trust the government, people turn to issues and comforts that they can depend on. Period. Any other interpretation is a failure of comprehension.

Real democrats will vote for whoever the nominee will be. For those who will vote for McBush, may McBush send your son and grandson-if you will have any to an endless, meaningless war!

if obama wins and the hardcore clintonians vote for mcshame, theyre just voting for more years of their sons and daughters to be fighting in that ever so avoidable iraq war and hundreds or thousands of more lives to be lost

Hillary and McCain are right Obama cannot be trusted. CNN, MSMBC continues to help him by promoting Obama. If Hillary made this comments you all would talk about it day and night.

Obama did not come out swinging.

ITS NOT ABOUT DEMS OR REPUBS ITS ABOUT AMERICAS FUTURE. LOOK HOW MCLOSE THIS RACE IS AND HILLARY IS BEING OUT SPENT 4-1 OR MORE.

FIGHT ON HILLARY

obama isn't out of the woods on the Rezko trial.. It will probably be after the nomination but what goes around, comes around.

Gerald,
No real Democrats will vote for their party's nominee. It is pretty obvious who that is going to be.

Obama 2008

If Hillary quits now and stops lying, she may have a chance in running again in 2016.

Lets face it. Not matter what happens on Tuesday, Hillary has already lost. There is no way in heaven, she will get 10 points margin, let alone 15 or 20. That in itself, should open the eyes of the super delegates.

Quit Now Hillary – Run again in 2016.

the dnc can see that obama can't win the big states against hillary, let alone mccain in november. every time this wind bag opens his mouth he seems to be insulting someone. obama is to controversial, with rezko, auchi, ayers, rev. wright, and his wife. the swift boaters, and republicans have alot to work with from obamas friends. looks like 4 more years of republican rule if he gets the nomination.

if hillary steals this , i will vote for McCain…but that's a big if…

I fault no one but Howard Dean and the DNC. If Clinton was leading in the delegate count and popular vote the racist elite such as Gov Rendell and others in the Democratic party would be calling for Obama's head.

Obama O8

Well, tell Hillary to stop it

SHe is the one making all the uproar

l am areal demo and l will vote OBAMA period

His wife hates whites too?

Michelle Obama:

"There was no doubt in my mind that as a member of the black community, I am obligated to this community and will utilize all of my present and future resources to benefit the black community first and foremost."

This is Hillary's doing… or the DNC for making the process so long

Well if the DNC had allowed Florida and Michigan to vote, this would not be happening. Senator Clinton would be the winner. Leave it to the DNC to come up with stupid penalties like not allowing states to vote. Let's just move to a dictatorship.

The dem elders are getting what they deserve for letting Hillary Clinton continue in this race. If this were opposite and Obama had lost 11 in a row and Clinton had the most delegates it would be over. Clinton is always the one to go in the gutter first and drag Obama with her.

If you really want Clinton or Obama, and then you vote for McCain in a swing state, you're a moron, and I have a bridge in Brooklyn to sell you.

They should be worried!!! The democrat elders will be voting for McCain if Obama gets the nominee…Post this CNN!!

Go Hillary…if not then McCain!!

A helium balloon does not fly forever. Obama’s balloon will definitely not last through November. Hoping it will burst soon so we don’t all have regret his loss in November.

Why is this viewed as a negative issue? None of us are bound to vote for our chosen political party. True Americans will vote for the candidate they feel with do the most good (or least harm), regardless of party.
To believe that all Democrats must walk in lock-step is ridiculous!

I definitely will never, ever, vote for Obama, NEVER!
I will not vote for McCain either, a write in or no vote at all is a no vote either way for the Dems.
I have left the party and have registered as a independent, the reason, the FL and MI debacle!

If Clinton wins I'll vote McCain.

Couldn't stand her husband, and she is worse.

No one in this world is a true Democrat or Republican. We all believe things on both sides of the spectrum. Though I was raised Republican, I consider myself Democrat.

If HRC wins the nomination, I refuse to vote. Yes that means that I'm casting my vote by default for McCain. I'm ok with that. Barack is my candidate and more close to my own upbringing then any other candidate.

I am from Michigan and apparently my vote wasn't good enough for the Democrats in January soooooo it won't be good in November. McCain you just got another vote!!!!

The only way to end this is a joint ticket. People say they'd never go for it, but in the end a chance to have the most historical ticket in all of American History along with the blooming hate toward the Iraq war, it will be a winner.
I'm an avid Clinton supporter, who has long hated Obama, but will bow down to the joint ticket.
Either or on top will do. They're in the White House done and done.

Sounds like he pulling one of his tricks to bamboozle the American voters.

Obama:

From Dreams Of My Father;
“I learned to slip back and forth between my black and white worlds,” he wrote in “Dreams.” “One of those tricks I had learned: People were satisfied so long as you were courteous and smiled and made no sudden moves. They were more than satisfied; they were relieved — such a pleasant surprise to find a well-mannered young black man who didn't seem angry all the time.”

Real democrats will vote for Hillary, period.

GO HILARY YOU ARE THE BEST

Obama cannot be trusted. I will never vote for Obama.

I choose not to vote in Nov. This is all because of Obama. Obama cannot win the general election

Like my students said to me, "Obama has found a clever way to pull the race card!" He has also let it be known that "people should be voting their color."

Cue hysterical Republican-Clinton trolls screaming "OBAMA IS TEARING THE PARTY APART!" a claim which, given that far more of her supporters are planning to defect to McCain if Obama is nominated than vice versa, is gutsy to say the least.

28 years of Bush – Clinton era………Is this what americans want?

I hope it does help McCain.

If Hillary wins the Dem nomination, polls show she will beat McCain.

If Obama wins the Dem nomination, polls show he will lose to McCain.

Seems like a pretty clear choice for Superdelegates, designed to pick the stronger candidate — this is a pretty convincing argument here.

And CNN aint making this any better.

""BUT LIFE WAS ALOT BETTER""

I just laugh at people who support Hillary because they fondly recall the 1990s and think they can be brought back.

2008 isn't 1992. Jobs and factories that have already been outsourced aren't going to come back again…too much capital has been invested in India and elsewhere. The best you could hope for is that outsourcing is curtailed going forward, but what's already been outsourced is simply gone.

First of all Barack Obama is no better than his Pastor is, his mentor and guidance. Obama in my book is nothing but a young Senator looking to go somewhere fast, he has NO Experience, he has NO Plans, and in 4 years with Obama in the White House we will be NO better than what we are now. Charm, Charisma, and Lies will get you NO where, and finally the American People are seeing him for how he truly is, and maybe so should everyone. Obama and his followers act like he is "God", I divorced a man for the same reason's. Obama thinks he can tell lies about forms he filled out years ago, Plagerize, and now call Pennsylvania's "Bitter", and have no account for it. I seen the speech, I heard how Obama implied it, and it is this exact reason why I would NOT VOTE for OBAMA. He is to carefree with his choice of words, he is to quick to respond in a negelegent manor when something arises, and this makes a very skitzy President in my book. On the other hand I look at Hillary who yes has been through it all, maybe she and Bill have done some stupid things, but all in all, America was safe, it was prosprosus, and "We The People" meant something. Have a great day

If Obama wins I vote McCAin!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Billary seeths bitter. I for one am a Democrat that will never vote for her. Won't vote for McAncient, but refuse to vote for that lying slimebag.

At least Senator Clinton and her campaign are still in touch enough to know people who boo her aren't her supporters. If you believe in democracy at some point you should start listening to the people. Unless of course the supper delegates know better. Talk about condescending.

Maybe folks are catching on that neither Party represents middle America.They both pander to Elites.

What I don't understand are the undecided voters. Who the hell are these people? How after all this campaigning, you're still undecided? These are supposed to be the people that will decide the nomination? We are certainly doomed!!!!

Stupidity is in the democratic party. This could have easily been solved if they would have allowed Florida and Michigan to vote and let the people decide. They argue about rules not followed, now they want to shut down Hillary? Barack isn't man enough to stand up and allow these two states to vote but he is willing to compromise on delegates? I am from Ohio, and if they don't allow those two states to vote, regardless of who wins, I will vote republican.

Hillary 08 or Mc Cain 08

I am an Obama supporter and I will truly have a hard time casting my vote for Hillary. I believe she is sn intelligent woman, but do not think she will be able to get anything accomplished .I believe she is divisive. This is the first election that i have seen so many young people involved in politics, they are our future, I know the Clinton supporters call them young, uneducated individuals but it should show that at least they are more interested in politics than video games, This election is THEIR future. And their future is my future. I would hate to see these voters disenfranchised. I find McCain to be an honest man but cannot see myself voting for war,tax breaks for the wealthy, no universal healthcare etc.Dem's should unite if they have this same philosophy.

What do you expect from AMERICANS when Obama does not monitor his own prejudices before he speaks. The recent exposure of his friends (Rezko, Ayers and Wright) have given Americans a closer view of the man they call OBAMA>
Obama refused to alloe Michigan their re-vote YET says he is a Uniter ( but only if the wind blows his way!)
Check out the aol article today by Justin Paulette on Michelle Obama's comments and you'll see what the White House would look like with Barry , multi-million dollar, Michelle and the girls at the Helm!

It's OK , Oregon will put her away on may 20th , and there will be plenty of time to heal.

FRED . MATH DONT MEAN —-. OUR COUNTRY NEEDS TO WORRY ABOUT A LEADER THAT IS QUALIFIED ENOUGH TO RUN IT. YOU THING S.D. ARE GOING TO GO TO A CANIDATE THAT HAS NO TRACK RECORD OR ANY KNOW HOW AROUND THE WHITEHOUSE. GIVE ME A BREAK. THAT LEAVES O.B. OUT. HRC IS OUR ONLY PRAYER, AND HAS KNOWLEDGE AROUND THE WHITEHOUSE POLICIES.

The Hillary supporters should stop using "uppercase" letters to talk to others on this blog. They are as inconsiderate and insulting as their candidate. Please you rich people should stop shouting at us, the little people. Thank you. Vote for 8 more years of a disgraceful administration, the Clintons!!!

l am Obama supporter l became Obama supporter after Edward droped out and l wiil not support Hillary if she becomes the nominie she is a lier power hungry,and they were in the white house for 8 years .if she did not do anything good for America during that time what makes you thin she wiil it.NAFTA, COLUMBIA TRADE AND WATERGATE.there are suppose to retire and enjoy deal monies

I am one who will probably vote for McCain if Obama is the candidate. I'm a "moderate" and feel that McCain is a shorter distance to the right of Clinton than Obama is to the left.

Count me as a Hillary supporter who will vote for McCain – no matter what, if Obama wins the Democratic nomination. Many Independent voters who normally lean Democrat will do the same. Hispanic and Asian voters also. Obama can not win, especially now. This is in large part due to his overzealous and rude supporters who arrogantly think that Obama can win without Hillary supporters. If the Obama campaign does not practice what it allegedly preaches, a Republican will win the White House once again.

Hillary of McCain for President. Keep the snobs out of the White House.

Good thing there are so many fewer Clinton supporters.

I am a lifelong Demoocrat who can say flatly that I will not vote for Obama.
I saw the previous story where he mocked Hillary for "taking a shot" at a bar. And he says he is going to run a different campaign. He is going to change politics! What a lie! He is as bad or worse. What is the point of talking about what Hillary drank that day? If Obama cannot stop attacking Hillary Clinton, how can he say he will work with Republicans or foreign dignitaries?
He addresses groups with a sterotype. What, Senator Obama, is a "typical white person"? You referred to "typical white people" when you were diparaging your own grandmother. What else do you think of small town Americans besides that they are bitter, cling to guns, count on religion only when in times of need and are bigots? A person who feels the way BO does about groups of people and who stereotypes them is dangerous and certainly thinks he is better than others.
NObama!

This poll just goes to show that it would be better for the party if Hillary got the nom, at least we wouldn't lose as many voters than we would if Obama got the nom, The only way to unify the party is for them to run on the same ticket, the same way Kennedy and Johnson did.

Obama- boy does he sound anti-American or what?

“As I’ve said about the flag pin, I don’t want to be perceived as taking sides,”
Obama said. “There are a lot of people in the world to whom the American flag is a
symbol of oppression. And the anthem itself conveys a war-like message. You know,
the bombs bursting in air and all. It should be swapped for something less parochial
and less bellicose. I like the song ‘I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing.’ If that were
our anthem, then I might salute it.”

This is not the first poll to show that Clinton supports would not Obama. Wake up fellow democrates and get out of the Obama spell! We really do not know this guy. Don't vote on charisma but vote for substance! We are voting for our President…not a rock star!

Go Hillary! Keep fighting!

Democtrat Elders deserve what they are getting. For once, they had a chance to win the general election with near certainty, and they allowed the Clintons ruin things AGAIN.

I am a Republican. I am waiting for Obama to get the nomination, and then I will vote for him. There are thousands of people like me in America. What does the Democratic Party do? They alienate people like me because they don't have the spine to stand up to the Clintons.

Hillary 08 or Mc Cain 08

I think the democratic leadership is right to be concerned, but only as a contingency, there's still no direct evidence that the party won't come together and in the meantime they're getting the bulk of the news coverage which most agree plays to their advantage.

Regarding the geniuses who continue to bring up one campaign or the other's talking points in an effort to "prove" that one candidate is right or wrong about how people from rural PA feel, let's face it – if you're not from rural PA you don't know whether Obama's "bitter" comment was accurate or whether it will resonate with voters. I wish CNN was better at not posting these nonconstructive comments.

If Obama wins I will vote for McCain

The 'Elitist' mind set that everyone is so happy to place on Obama is so, misdirected.
An Elistist is someone like HRC who basically thought she was entitled to the nomination just because of who she is.
Prior to the start of the Primaries she basically was a shoe in to win in everyone eyes and POLL.
She felt she was entitled to win this election all the way to the WH.
However when she was slapped into reality in Iowa and subsequently the other States she lost, what did she do? She start to throw mud.
She has the attitude that if I can't have It, I be dammned if a first term Senator from IL will take this from me.
So, if the Hillary supports don't vote for Obama hey the next 4 or 8 years of the same of Bush Policies are on them.
The next 4 or 8 years of the War in Iraq is on them.
The next 4 or 8 years of this economy is on them.
The next 4 or 8 years of no Health Care is on them.

So, if you ask me you HRC and for that matter the Mcain folks too need to focus on what you want in the next 4 or 8 years. Otherwise you think it hard now as they say you ain't seen nothing yet!!!

Hillary all the way in 2008, I will not vote for Obama or McCain maybe Al Gore will decide to run again since the election was stolen from him in the first place. We do not need another election where the supreme court or the super delegates decide who wins. This is enough to make me an independent.

to Hillary supporters:

Get with the program. If you want the war to continue vote McCain. For those of you to lazy to do research, Obama has twice as much legislative experience then Hillary, more 5 times as much experience as a public servant, and has built his organization from the ground up. You people hang off Hillary's every word likes she's deserves to be president. Reality Check Obama wasn't degrading small towns. We the entire text. Seems to me all you know of is one sentence out of three paragraph answer he gave. But no matter what happens Hillary or Obama, McCain should not be President. Why because of the War.

so the democratic leadership didnt look under the hood before they made their choice for the party…once again the democrats implode and put a republican in the white house. you have to give the republican credit for being smart. they made their nominee the only guy that would take a vote from a democrat. i should know. he is getting my vote if obama is the democratic nominee..

YES WOLF I WORRY ABOUT THE PARTY I HAVE TWO THAT ARE IN THEIR 30′S AND HAS NEVER REGISTER TO VOTE UNTIL THIS YEAR. THEY ARE FOR OBAMA . THEY SAID IF THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY MAKES HILLARY CLINTON THE NOMINEE THEY WOULD NEVER VOTE AGAIN

OBAMA'S FLIP ON ABORTION

As strong and consistent abortion foes, Sen. Robert P. Casey Jr. and former congressman Timothy J. Roemer are anomalies in a Democratic Party that has overwhelmingly advocated abortion rights. Yet both are backing Sen. Barack Obama, whom one conservative blogger dubbed "the most pro-abortion candidate ever."

As firmly as Casey (Pa.) and Roemer (Ind.) have adhered to their opposition, Obama has never supported a single measure that would curtail access to abortion — even under controversial circumstances. But Casey and Roemer have chosen to ignore Obama's legislative record, and are promoting the Democratic presidential candidate to their antiabortion allies as someone who could achieve a new consensus on the issue.

To all you Obama supporters, blame it on the media, We would not feel this way, if it had not been for the apparent media bias for Obama .I will never vote for Obama,

Charlotte Whitton once said: "A woman has to work twice as hard as a man to be thought half as good. Luckily this is not too difficult."

That said, I hope Hillary does not cave into this kind of mounting pressure to quit…we women in male-dominated industries understand that this is just the process of advancement.

I honestly FEEL, right now, that if Hillary were the nominee I would vote for McCain

but I also realize that, by November, I am likely to change my mind and vote Democrat no matter who the nominee is – holding my nose if I have to

Everyone is saying that the longer this goes on, the better it is for the Democratic Party and the winning candidate will be tried and tested. I'm not buying that argument, the Democratic party have three sides as I see it; those for Hillary, those for Barack and those that don't like either and have yet to choose. Whoever gets the nomination, I feel that the losing side will do everything in their power to show that the other people picked the wrong candidate.

Bush and his way of thinking has brain washed up so much that we don't even know it. His whole political philosophy has been about if you're not for me then you're against me and that is the road that I see this party headed down.

Well, I'm an independent, and I was always planning on voting for McCain if Obama didn't get the nomination…even back when Obama and Clinton were still warm and fuzzy and "honored to be sharing the stage" with each other and whatnot.

And I'll still be voting for McCain if Obama doesn't get the nomination even after the people in this poll unite behind whichever one wins the nod because they are the Democrat.

I don't remotely think that McCain will be Bush's third term…I like McCain (although his willingness to jump on this Obama elite thing is disappointing).

All that matters to me is no more Bush White Houses and no more Clinton White Houses.

That is Priority One.

Just listen to someone, like Janie, in NC. She is "bitter" as Obama has clearly stated, and blinded by all the Hillary/Bill lies to this nation. Why/ because Janie is a woman, and is "clining" to gender; she wants a "woman" president even though she ahs her husband have tanished the "good names of women. The truth hurts Janie, Obama does not need your vote!

I will say a decade of the Rosary to Perpetual Help for people like Janie who need some real emotional growth!!

THIS SWITCHING PARTY LINES WAS ENCOURAGE BY BARACK OBAMA. HIS STYLE OF HATE, HATE, HATE, AND BIAS. HE STARTED IT AND WE WILL END HIS PLIGHT.,

Bitter Bickering is getting old! The Billary Dynasty should just accept that they are not going to win. Thank you Billary for such a gift. Obama will win after all. Obama/08

Hillary does not seem to sound or act presidential and this
could translate that she needs to lead people through negative responses. The fact that after reading, the bad stuff she is not very likeable . Barack is not perfect, he is willing tobuild the type of America
where All people a hope . This goes against general Idea of Afflency,
So Many people who Identify with Hillary have a problem with Barack
followers.But In two weeks the storm will cease.

they should be worried. how long does this have to go on?

we can all thank the democratic leadership for handing the election to the republicans on a silver platter.

unbelievable.

If Hillary wins, I am voting for no one. It will just prove to me that my reasons for being disenchanted with the politics of our country have been justified all along, and that big money, special interests and dirty politics will always triumph over the voice of the people.

It is not just ok to not go to the polls in November. Send a message to Clinton and vote for McCain! If Hillary had any self respect or dignity she would have gracefuly conceeded a long time ago. When she and the superdelegates cheat Obama, they are going to lose in the end.

IF NOT OBAMA PLEASE VOTE MCCAIN!

and this from the party that will unite America? How can any one beleive that Senator Clinton or Senator Obama will unite America when neither can unite the Democratic party. Look at the majority of these comments and find two things in common – Hatred or plain ignorance. I mean some people actually still beleive President Bush "stole" the election in 2000 and keep posting as such. Come on America – WAKE UP, we are ALL Americans and should conduct ourselves as such. Try rational thought for a change, instead of hatred

DEBRA. O.B. SUPPORTERS THINK HE IS THE SECOND COMING AND HIS — IS MADE OF GOLD. THEY ARE YOUNG AND VERY IMATURE . THEY ONLY SEE GLAMOUR, ROCK VIDEO'S AND SOMEONE THAT LOWERS THEIR SELF TO THEIR MORTALITY. O.B. IS NOTHING BUT A CHILD HIMSELF.AMERICA WILL WAKE UP WHEN WE HAVE ANOTHER 9II OR WORST. THAN IT WILL BE TO LATE.

No Wolf, this is the best thing that ever happened to the Democratic Party. The Democratic Leadership Council overlords are being purged from the party one after another. Billary is about to join Lieberman as "leaders without followers."

I am calling on the voters of New York to launch a Hillary recall so she can be replaced with a Democrat.

Meanwhile, Obama is bringing in a new generation of young voters and millions of previously discouraged bitter non-voters who will comprise a new progressive Democratic Party.

The Democrats doomed whomever their eventual nominee is when they decided the voters of Florida and Michigan could be ignored. Rather than punish the Super Delegates (some of whom had a say in moving the primary) they chose to disenfranchise millions. So I find it highly amusing that the "elders" are only now becoming worried.

If Obama wins – I will either not vote – or vote for McCain.

It is not the word bitter, it is his remarks about them clinging to guns, religion, racism. He was inferring they only do that because they are bitter. It showed his true feelings about how he perceives the blue collar workers, as bible thumping, gun toting, racists.

Alrighty then…what's the purpose of writing an article tand pointing out the "worries" of "Dem elders" without actually 1) identifying the worries, and 2) identifying the Dem elders who are worried?

You should change from cnn to dnn .Democratic news network. Thats all you ever show. You even make it so obvious. It's a shame the voters don't get unbiased news from you people. If both sides of the issues were ever told– the poor liberals would never win another election.

Wolf, Really, asking Rep. Clyburn for his objective analysis on Clinton/Obama? This is the same gentleman who went ignored his promise of neutrality to the Dem. Party before the South Carolina primary and called both Clintons racists. Of all the people you can get to come on your show, how you do always manage to find the most partisan anti-Clinton operatives?

The party elders are just starting to worry? After several months of Clinton providing anti-Obama fodder for the republicans they've finally figured out this is damaging? What happened to the line of the spineless party leaders that the sniping was making them stronger candidates? The belief that Democrats always manage to defeat themselves is not incorrect. So who's got the proverbial b—s to put an end to it?

If Obama wins, I will vote for McCain.

Lilarose– that is the kind of thinking that has this country were it is. REAL SMART

If the Democrats fail to win the presidency, I think the person who loses the Democratic nomination will forever be known as the person who caused the party to lose when it was considered impossible to lose.

Democrats everywhere will be very angry with the person losing the nomination. I think their national appeal will be lost forever because many will think that individual put themselves ahead of the party.

I am not surprised that many of Clinton supporters will end up supporting McCain. After all she does the dirty work for him …

Oh Hillary is an angel. yea right. GET REAL!!!!!!!!

I'm sure it's just a coincidence that the difference in the number of Clinton voters who would support McCain is approximately equal to the difference in the amount of women who support her over Obama. Because… you know, women aren't vindictive at all, and they certainly don't hold grudges, do they? What's that saying again, hell hath no fury?

Quite frankly I'm shocked. If you'd rather not vote, that's one thing. But to vote for the candidate whose positions are completely opposite to yours instead of the candidate whose positions are relatively the same is so ridiculously childish and petty. People would rather have 4 more years of Bush, 4 more years of our soldiers dying, just for what? Spite? Un-f**cking-believable.

Obama will when the nomination but will loose the general. He offers nothing but an empty suit full of worhtless, elitist rhetoric. The far left is so desparate to counter the Bush years that they are out of touch with reality. Can you say McGovern?

If Obama gets the nomination I'm not voting for McCain, but I'm not voting for Obama either

Wolf, the democratic party is ill advisedly making McCain a very viable option. At the rate Hillary is going, I think it is not out of place to question if she is running for the democratic nomination or McCains vice presidential candidate, because the tones appear to similar. Obama on the other hand appears to be fasly becoming more of Hillry with his shame on you out bursts. The democrats had better check where they are headed because they appear headed for a hunting trip with Dick Cheney, and it can hurt big time. Only two months ago, I wouldn't have had any problems about voting for any of the two candidates, but today I will sit it out than vote for Hillary and I am getting fairly tired of Obama but McCain certainly will never be an option. I still want to vote but that is if the democrats permit me to.

The Democratic Leadership is just plain awful. No wonder we have a tought time winning against the Republicans that advocate for a costly war for no reason. They should sit down with both candidates and force them to be on the same ticket. Hillary has to attack hard because she is behind and of course she will do anything to win. And some times Obama is the one to start it but Hillary hits him back hard and that is what the media focuses on. ALL POLITICIANS WILL DO ANYTHING TO WIN! If they didnt they would never be elected. Both are polling considerable amts of votes and that is why they both need to be on the ticket to win.

Well, CNN, you did it again. Why not print some of the Obama negatives? Is it right that you do not give people unbiased information regarding our presidential candidates? Obama, his wife, his pastor are all racists.

You know what? I have always been proud of my country. I worked as a Peace Corps volunteer in Lithuania; I taught English in China for eight months, I volunteer my time to help others. I am not rich, I came from a very poor family. However, I'm happy and proud that I am an American.

Shame on those people who grew up in a family that could educate them in the best schools, etc.

While Hillary clings to her illusion of being Prez, the democrat party officials are looking like whimps. Meanwhile McCain runs basically unopposed until …..well….. July or August?

Hillary won't give up. She is totally willing and able to destroy Obama's chances in November. She has made Carl Rove look like a lamb while Her Lioness rages to anyone who shows up to listen. Time to tell her to go home and get some therapy to get over her obsession.

OoooooBBbbbbbbAAaaaaaaMMmmmAaaaaaa

If Hillary is the nominee – I will give up and completely turn off politics. I will NOT vote for her. I was so disappointed in 2000 and 2004, if she steals this nomination, I can not let myself care anymore.

OBAMA IS NOT PRESIDENTIAL MATERIAL. HOW CAN YOU VOTE FOR HIM FOR PRESIDENT? MAYBE VP.

PEOPLE, IF YOU DON'T WANT MCCAIN TO BE PRESIDENT, YOU BETTER GET HILLARY AS THE NOMINEE.

I think the Dems elders start worrying too late. They should have starred worrying sooner and acted sooner before this COMPETITION turned to FEUDF that Hillary started. I see that still many SUPERDELEGATES ARE UNDECIDED. WHAT ARE THEY WAITING FOR?? this exactly is the core issue. Dems elders need to convience these Superdelegates to ACT NOW!!!. be free to give whomever you want to give your vote…but act now..

Maybe once Obama has a plan for solving any real issue, I'd consider voting for him. Right now he's just got a lot of ideas but no way to realize them. I'm a lifelong Democrat but refuse to vote for someone who I think has no ability to get anything done.

Alas, I support Clinton only by default. I originally supported the best Democratic candidate – John Edwards.

Wow..
Is this what the world has come to? I guess there are no true Democratics anymore!!!!!!!!! The fact that people can switch party lines so easily is troublesome!!!!!!

I'm truly starting to believe that people's biggest problems with the other democratic canidate don't stem directly from the canidate but rather from their supporters. I for one am an Obama supporter. However, I would most likely vote for Clinton if that's what it came down to.

It's the Hillary supporters that I find so disgusting, including those who work for her. They don't seem to open their minds to anything that doesn't come from her mouth. I don't know if that's how they percieve Obama supporters, but I've heard some pretty nasty stuff said about us and vice versa. I'm sure once we have a common enemy, things will cool down. Just, as of now, I hate the thought of being a part of the Hillary crowd. They come off so ignorant and fearful sometimes.

It seems perfectly logical to me that such a high percentage of Clinton's supporters say they will back McCain rather than Obama, if Clinton does not get the nomination. She has consistently maintained that McCain is the only viable alternative to her. Between her relentless attacks and her claims of victimization, it is no wonder that her supporters are so put off on Obama. Her campaign is truly, unfortunately, the campaign to end all campaigns. Read the Carl Bernstein blog on MSNBC's website. It really hits the nail on the head.

THE POPULAR VOTES AND PLEDGED DELEGATES SPEAK FOR ITSELF….THE PEOPLE HAVE ALREADY CHOSEN THE DEMOCRATIC NOMINNEE: BARACK OBAMA…LET'S RALLY BEHIND HIM AND BRING BACK PEACE, PROSPERITY TO THIS COUNTRY….AND BRING MY MAN HOME FROM IRAQ!!!!!

I my self am ready for a change in the White House. And that change is for Obama. Come on America Do you want 8 years of Clinton and then back to Jed Brush and then we can do another 8 years of Clinton because Chelsea Clinton will be of age. is that what you people want ? Come on Ombama speaks the truth and you Crucify him , And then there Is Hillary who can llie to the people and you think thats good . If that what you want then by all means put the Clintons and the Brushes back in the
white House and dont be Bitter about it and Stay the on the same road has is now. I myself want to see some change hear so I am Obama all the way to the White House.

The democratic leaders have plenty to worry about. I'm on of the percents who will not support Obama if he should win the nomination. I have not voted for any republican in 30 years but will happily do so if Obama is the nominee. And those of you who believe that things will be pulled together by the GE, you are dreamers. The hatred on both sides of the Clinton/Obama fence wont go away.

This has hardened so many supporters against the other candidate. If the Democratic elders think this will go away after a nominee is chosen, they are blind. At this point, the only viable solution left will be to have both candidates on the ticket together, regardless of who is on top of the ticket. That will be the only way the white voters who will not vote for Obama because of his race AND the large numbers of new voters (especially the youth vote) and the most reliable Democratic voting block (the African American vote) will join together to elect a Democratic President. If this does not happen, one side of supporters will be very bitter (our term of the day) and we stand the chance of a lot of revenge voting ,or no voting at all. THIS IS THE REALITY FOLKS! I am an Obama supporter, but I also have to look at the reality of the situtaion. These candidates will be so bloodied going int othe Fall, there is no other way.

Stupid Democrats…it's not enough to polarize all negotiations on capital hill between the DEM and GOP,.

Now they've managed to polarize their own party!!!

Between the DLC and DNC's constant "mispeaks, trips, fumbles, and flat out ignorance–and the throat slitting of the two leading candidates—too bad all we have is McCain to go up against them–because it should be a cake walk.

We really need a third option!! I cannot believe this is really all the talent we can muster for the 2008 Presidential race?

How come we vote for a guy who we not trust??? The presidential job is not for Mr rhetoric with emptied promises.

I have a different problem. I can decide which one I like less. There is absolutely nothing solid about either. I guess Obama would have a slight edge as he reminds me of one of my favorite literary characters.
Alfred E. Neumann of MAD magazine fame.
"What? Me worry?" – Obama E. Neumann

Clinton has just as much right as an American to run for President as that bigot obama! Only an obama fan would ever suggest that millions of people should not get to vote for who is to be their next president. You didn't hear them saying this dribble when obama was behind in the polls early on. I think you would have to be an idiot to vote for someone who had the balls to run for president after only one year as a senator. If he didn't know he wasn't qualified for the job- the public should have. Clinton supporters know it! This is why washington is such a mess. Hillary you are the only intellegent choice for president. We all love you!

McCain is a loose canon. He is forgetful, uninformed on issues he is not interested in, like the economy.This along with his overpowering history as an unrelenting hawk is out of touch with what Americans want in a president.
From the Democratic perspective I believe this primary fight has strenghthened both candidates and particlular Barack Obama, the likely nominee. He is a far better candidate than he was just a few short months ago.The fight has been a good boot camp for the general election in the fall.
Despite these pollsnow, the two sides in this Democratic primary will undoubtedly make nice as much as they say otherwise now, against a common foe: the prospect of a Bush III adminstration. Who would have predicted the recent McCain -Mitt love fest was possible?There is simply too much at stake here.

If the media would stick to covering the issues and refused to repeat "junk news" over and over again 24/7 , the whole of the American public would benefit. "Just say no" to media feeding frenzies!

David Davidson

This race has gotten negative, and both candidates are guilty of it. I was happier when it was a love-fest like at the LA debate, too bad we can't go back to that now, Democrats.

I will not and cannot vote for that woman

I WRITE IN CAPITAL LETTERS BECAUSE I LIKE TO YELL TO GET PEOPLE TO HEAR ME RATHER THAN HAVING ANYTHING SUBSTANTIAL TO SAY.

Go ahead, voter for McCain people and watch America go further down the tubes. You're the same idiots that put W in charge for 8 years. Thanks a lot for that.

They are worried, but won't speak out their prefference for one of the two. Why don't they just pledge and end the whole problem? Maybe they don't want to take the risk of pledging the candidate that will eventually loose. Elders you have the sollution but just don't want to execute. So in the end the whole party will be hurt. Show some courage and speak out!

I can't vote for HRC.

She lies all the time, and she has shown she is willing to stoop to anything to win the nomination. Her brand of politics sickens me.

I don't know that I would be able to pull the lever for McCain, but as an independent it is certainly an option. Either way – staying home or voting McCain – the dems are looking to be very divided come November unless this race resolves itself soon. If it drags on until the convention, you can guarantee a Republican win.

Here is the major problem with this election cycle. If Senator Clinton is successful in destroying Senator Obama it will set voter participation back 20 or 30 years. Right now the youth of the nation are excited and starting to participate as they have not since JFK. If the cynical politics of Senator Clinton work, the youth and many other new voters will withdraw from political participation once again. That is the threat here.

if hillary wins,i will vote for mccain

I am an Independent who will be voting for Barack Obama when he wins the Democratic nomination.

If there were some crazy scenario that unfolded that allowed Hillary Clinton to win the Democratic nomination, not only would I support John McCain, I would probably join the McCain campaign and contribute my time to helping him win.

Doesn't really matter though, because if Hillary were to prevail for the Democratic nomination McCain would run away with the election. There is absolutely no way the Democratic party could contend under such circumstances.

Janie – Seriously??? If Obama was half as arrogant as HRC, it would be a stretch. She has shown her true side, which is "it's all about me and my right to be president". But, most who support her can't see that, they line up right behind her for their entitlements. I will probably vote Dem either way, since I think McBush will finish W's job of ending our country as we know it. But I would like to vote for the best of the Dems, and right now HRC doesn't even qualify as a Dem, nevermind a good one.

The numbers say it all… Hillary can at least have a chance to beat McCain where Obama won't. Read the numbers… more of Hillary's supporters like McCain over Obama.

Including this independant. If not Hillary, McCain.
No Obama.

McCain is a Republican moderate who will win many Democrats over. I can see Obam winning over some frustrated Republicans. I can't see Clinton winning over anyone from across the aisle. She is really the Republicans favorite candidate because she creates a great deal of antipathy from her opposition.

Senator McCain is to old, too cranky and too hidebound to be a good President. His day came and went after the Bush money machine stole the nomination from him years ago.

If you read between the lines one can tell Carter, Gore, Pelosi and Dean will choose for Obama! If Clinton goes on dividing the party they will do it verry soon in an attempt to end the nomination in Obama's favor!

Republican bloggers are posing as democrat saying they won't for the other dem. candidate if theirs don't win the nomination. Only a fool will fall for that. Watch out democrats, the republican machine is out to get you.

What's sad is, Hillary is still in this fight because she believes that Obama has certain problems that would render him unelectable… but Hillary is not and never has been even remotely electable herself. Even if what she said was true (and who knows, it may be), she's still not a viable alternative or a solution to the problem. The Republicans have YEARS of dirt stored up on Clinton, and she's incredibly unpopular in many states in the country. The Republicans aren't terribly excited about John McCain as a candidate, so he wouldn't do much to get them to the polls… but they'd show up in a HUGE way just to vote against Hillary.

So Hillary is dragging down our own candidate who even has any chance against McCain. Instead of spending his time and campaign cash going after McCain, Obama has to spend it fighting off her attacks instead… all because she has an ambition that was dead-born from the start.

they are going to keep killing each other and pave the way for McCain to cruise to the White House

I'd like to modestly suggest that all those offended by Mr. Obama's comments explain what exactly they found offensive. Obama simply stated something that many people, both rural and urban, have noticed: that small-town America is bitter, and when they are bitter, all they've got left are their traditions, their guns, their religion — so they cling to it with all they've got because all the change happening around them is happening at their expense.

I know Mrs. Clinton is intelligent enough to understand the nuance contained therein. I also know that she is exploiting this supposed misstatement for political gain. Those of you who are either foolish or ill-informed enough to buy into the political rhetoric without first examining, then dissecting, everything Obama said in-context would do well not to vote; the last time the voters of the United States voted with their guts rather than their hearts, they voted for George W. Bush.

The Clintons look only for themselves. Their humility is wrong and their " anti-racism" is fake. Deeply they think that Obama should not bee president alone because he is black. Deeply they don't care about the poor. They only care about their agenda and their personal career plans. They think they are entitled to govern again. They are fake and hypocrites. This includes their daughter. They should be stopped from destroying the democratic chances to restore faith in America as a great Nation.
The Clinton don't really care if the Republicans win in November.
Stop Hillary and Bill!
Go Obama!

Everyone relax, take a deep breath, and smile.

I truly believe that because Hillary has been more negative than Obama, she will lose more votes if the time came and she was nominated. I also believe that Obama has the abilityto bring people together and he will get the democrats the white house. No doubt! i think the longer we see him, get toknow him and see the kind of work he has done and he plans to do, we will come together and support him. We will rally around someone who makes mistakes, silly ones, like using the wrong word, much quicker than we would around someone who lies! Besides, we are not a dictatorship, enough Bush/ clinton/bush no need to use the white house as a revolving door. No thanks! I would personallystay home and not vote for Hillary! I don't believe her enough to vote for her. I also do not agree with Mccain enough to vote for him. I guess I won't vote in Nov if Hillary is the democratic nominee.

Michelle Obama to the rescue!

"We live in isolation, and because of that isolation we fear one another.

Because Barack Obama is the only person in this race who understands that. That before we can work on the problems we have to fix our souls. Our souls are broken in this nation.

Barack will never allow you to go back to your lives as usual; uninvolved, uninformed."

Interesting comeback for her about his mistake about rural America!

The party elders should be deeply worried – the Democratic party will be in deep cow manure if this doesn't hurry and end. Senator Clinton is not only throwing the kitchen sink but the outhouse as well at him. Most Obama supporters will be hard-pressed to vote for her if the super delegates give it to her for any reason other than the fact that she wins in popular vote, pledged delegates and superdelegates.

hey debra, that was probably one of the dumbest comments I have ever read. At no point did Barack say anything about racism. The problem you have is you believe media spin and campaign rhetoric rather than the truth. You have just proven why nothing ever gets done in washington.

RELAX ELDERS LET THIS PLAY OUT

My wife's dad lost his job to NAFTA. He was one of the lucky ones. He got a low-paying job with the town, driving heavy equipment. He's not particularly religious, but he did go hunting to put food on the table for years. He's retired now, and to this day, he is unbelievably bitter. He tried to follow the American Dream. All he wanted to do was work hard and provide a comfortable (not elegant) life for his family. One thing you do not do in his house is mention the name Clinton. He is incredibly bitter about Bill and his NAFTA program. Most of the town is like that. Sorry to use such strong language in your presence, Hillary, but people are bitter. And they believe in their hearts that they have your husband to thank for that. You may be riding on his coat tails in an attempt to get to the White House, but his coat tails are tattered. They may wind up tripping you.

I wonder how accurate these polls are and if it is the right time to ask people. I personally think that the Democrats will pull together, regardless of which candidate wins. I support Hillary Clinton, but I will vote to Obama if he gets the nomination. Both

We can only thank Hillary for destroying the democratic party. She'll do or say anything to win. She even said that herself. Good luck 08.

wolf,
they should be worried. the clintons have made a pact with themselves and possibly the republicans, that if she is not the nominee, Hillary will do everything she can to destroy the party that she thinks "owes" her loyalty. Why do you think all the republicans are so nice too her, voting for her in primaries?

But at the end of the day if these so-called Hillary democrats votes for McCain, they too are quilty of bloodstained hands. Our sons and daughters will continue to sacrificed. Obviously, Hillary doesn't mind that since she voted for the war anyhow.
As for myself, I only trust Sen Obama with getting our troops out of harm's way.

on April 23rd the Supers need to come together and drive a stake through this evil, delusional, mentally-ill, and megalomaniacal witch's heart……..end this madness puh-leez and let's get back to reclaiming the United States.

si se puede!

If Obama gets the nomination..I refuse to vote..liar, racist on his staff whom he bows down to and condescending. Hasn't 7 years of that been enough already??

I simply will not vote for this man…America made some stupid choices electing Bush, and it is beginning to look like they just haven't learned their lesson yet. Go ahead put a novice in who has NO experience doing anything but making pretty feel good speeches..which won't help in getting our men and women out of Iraq and this god awful war!

Wolf, I think you realize why this is. Us Hillary fans feel like we have been deserted. To us there is a clear bias against Hillary by the media. For me and other Clinton fans I talk to, this is one of the main reasons we're very much against Obama. We don't feel he has been challenged enough and we feel he has been getting a free ride. There are plenty of negatives about Obama that your network has not touched upon. The more and more the media continues this bias against Hillary the more and more likely we will vote for McCain. This is coming from someone who despises the Bush Adminstration, voted for Gore and Kerry.

I am very worried as well sure don't want more of the same with another Republican and don't want to be in Iraq for 100 yrs but if Clinton doesnt get the nomination I will not vote for Obama I will vote Independent.

I guess it's a good thing there are fewer Clinton supporters out there!

Seriously-

I used to be Hillary Supporter…Now I am supporting McCain

cant take this fight forever…

If the party elders are so deeply worried, then so many of them should not be supporting the inexperienced, unqualified Senator Obama.

He is a first term Senator and he has spent almost all of his time in the Senate running for President.

He has no executive experience and has failed to use his subcommittee chairmanship in any worthwhile way.

He has no military background and has made little effort to learn about the military or the true situation in Iraq or the situation in Afghanistan.

When it has been convenient for him, he has said that words matter, but he has often ignored or made excuses for the words of his spouse and the words of his spiritual adviser.

Yes, the party elders should be worried.

Scorched Earth campaigns tedn to do this…

THIS is what they were worried about… that after 10 more contests.. the only thing that would happen is that the party would be more divided, while zero gain or loss in the actual competiton…

THANKS, HILLARY…

I always believed you would take the party down with you rather than exit gracefully.

The Dem. elders should go back to sleep and let the democratic porcess work. I cannot imagine anyone exiting the race until clear winner is chosen. I think it is time to vote these Dem. elders out of office

Simple! Let Obama drop out of the race!

HILLARY/Edwards 2008!

The democrats should blame themselves for this situation.
The leading democrats and the media prematurely took sides and forced the decision on the voters and this made the voters "bitter" for the other candidate…..

Debra you keep spewing hateful lies almost as well as Sen Clinton! perhaps you should go work for her campaign and stay off the boards stick to issues and relevant things and stop spreading more lies!!! It is just sick that she has supporters out there who like here lie when the truth would do better!

Go Obama 08 Yes We Can!!

American will unite and become the land of hope and opportunity again!

IREALLY THINK THAT ALL THIS BACK AND FORTH WILLULTIMATELY HELP MCAIN,I THINK THE CLINTONS GANG ARE DOUNG EVERY THING TO HAVE HER WIN,IT SEEMS TO ME THAT HILARY CARES LESS FOR THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY THAN HER WALK TO THE OVAL OFFICE,WITH ALL COST.I HOPE THAT SHE REALIZE THAT WE EDICATED VOTERS CARE ONLY FOR WHAT IS BEST FOR THE COUNTRY.

That poll is truly distorted, I believe that there are more than 32 percent that wouldn't vote for Hillary, just based on the Anti-Hillary groups out here in Dallas. We feel betrayed by her and want our votes back. Even is she is merely offered the janitor position in the White House, then I wont be voting Dem in Nov. She is not to be trusted at all! I will never vote for Hillary!!!!

We feel the majority of America is upset over Obama's critical & rude remark to the people of Pennsylvania…….and we should be. We DO NOT need a president who slams the people. This is NOT good for a president.

Think about this America

NOW FOR HILLARY CLINTON

Why can't Obama just take credit for what he said. He is trying hard to make us believe he was talking about people being bitter and turned to faith and hunting. Thats not what he said. He said people are bitter and cling to religion and guns, and become bigots. This behind closed doors to a laughing crowd. Its disgusting how his supporters and his campaign have spun this to make this Clinton or McCain's problem. Obama does come across as arrogant and condesending. His attacks on Hillary today are sad, as he has also taken photo ops in bars and bowling alley's.

I am tired of the Obama campaign and his supporters destroying the democratic party with their false message of hope and change, when its obvious that there is a lot a hate from this camp.

How dare he attack Hillary and distort he stances on trade. She has been forthwright on this subject and people should not be stupid.

The media is doing us a disjustice by not focusing on the fact that Obama called millions of americans bigots. This is typical of the Obama campaign and the media to try and pin this on Clinton. Also, the Annie Oakley comment is sexist and wrong.

The number of voters for McCain will be higher.
I was a democrat. Not any more. They have become a party of trivial issues, and by choosing Kerry last time and Obama this time their only consideration is just to get the power ( moveon.org party,..)

Go McCain 08…

Thats fine for McCain. I certainly i ntend to vote for him if Obama is the Dem. winner. We dont need him. Be afraid, be very afraid. He needs to go to his beloved Kenya where they need him.

This is totally right. McCain's huge fundraising disadvantage almost doesn' t matter because the dems are blasting each other for him.

Note how McCain never criticizes Clinton, only Obama. Why? Because he knows if he can help take Obama out now, then he'll have an easier time beating the snot out of Hillary in the fall.

Get real folks. Choose our only choice. Obama 08!

Debra, you're ignorant. Listen to the entirety of his comments and backdrop them against what he says on a daily basis. Go to Huffingtonpost and read what one of the people who was actually there thought of his comments in context. And then listen to the real people in small towns in Pennsylvania and across the country who are awakening to the realization that Obama actually understands us and is willing to fight for us.

Instead of casting Obama as a bigot, educate yourself.

Has anyone noticed that there is a "World Wants Obama" website?

He has already improved attitudes toward American; where it had deteriorated under the Bush administration.

He is better for America and for our relationships globally.

Obama 2008!

Time magazine ran a cartoon a while back showing John McCain being sworn in with Clinton and Obama sitting on the sidelines. Hillary's comment was "It was my turn, kid." That sums this mess up in a nutshell.

Obama, if you can read this, DROP OUT! Do the party a favor. Besides, how can you claim to unite when your statements have done nothing but divide and generalize?

If Obama wins the nom, my vote is going to Nader OR I am writing Hillary in.

If McBush wins in November, blame it on Hillary's poor imitation of Huckabee and staying in the race long after it was mathematically over. She should have dropped out after she got landslided in Virginia, but instead she stayed in to split the party.

The curious thing is that some senior Dems continue to support her even though it is clearly Obama who is brining many new voters in to the Democratic party, and Hillary isn't attracting any of them. In fact, she'll lose her core consituency over the next four years due to the natural causes that take the very elderly.

It should worry the Democratic party – many of the Obama supporters (myself included) support Obama not only because we feel he would be the best leader for our great country, but also because we are tired of the same old same old. Hilary Clinton represents the status quo in Washington just as much as John McCain does … more of the same.

If it is between Clinton and McCain – I'm not sure I would bother voting….. I certainly wouldn't vote for McCain just to spite Clinton, as I've heard many say they would do … that to me just makes absolutely no sense. But I'm not sure I could bring myself to vote for Hilary Clinton either, as she represents everything that is wrong with Washington just as much as John McCain does.

Just goes to show that people are NOT looking at policies but that this is more of a "beauty contest" than the election for a president. But once the furor dies and the DNC has a candidate things will change… either way it will not be the dems or repubs who decide this election it will be us independants.. and maybe someone should ask US which way we will go…

Well good I am glad they are getting worried you know why here is the real reason! with Sen Clinton they know exactly what they will get, What ever they pay her for. With Sen Obama they do not have that much control or him he is supported and working for it seems more and more each day the American people as a whole not just one group of well off people or poor people but all of us and if he is able to gain the support of the people he will be able to push through and change many things in the government and give power back to the people. If the senior leaders could get rid of Obama and keep HRC they would, but they can't because he is being supported by the people and to do so now at this late time int he game would mean the DNC would fall either way. There only shot is to come on board also and help shape this change in a way that works for all us us and is respectful of all are independent ideas and beliefs.

Go Obama 08 Yes We Can!!

If they were really worried about Clinton supporters, the DNC would seat (either with revotes or as is) FL & MI. Unlike a lot of Obama supporters the Clinton supporters think it is only a fair process if voters in all 50 states have a chance to have their votes count. We are old enough to remember the travesty of FL in 2000 — we didn't like it then, we do not like it now. If FL & MI are seated in a meaningful way & Obama wins the nomination, most Clinton supporters will come back to the fold. Obama supporters, on the other hand, care more about the captain than the team.

Mr. Blitzer, thanks to you and CNN, by supporting Hillary Clinton, you have helped her bring down the democratic party for her friends the republicans.

They're just starting to worry now??

Gee, way to be on the ball you twits!

We're well past the point that Hillary's doomed futile campaign should have been shut down. Everyone should know better to count on her or her blind supporters to do the right thing and support Obama. Did it not strike you that Hillary's shameful attack on Obama was almost the exact same as McCain's?

Let's check her income taxes again, I bet there's a payroll check in there from the National Republican Party.

Way to go go, NDP, you managed to find a way to lose again. Impressive.

I have truly enjoyed the Dem competition, and I believe it has made both candidates better prepared for the next step. I also, believe that Hillary's negative campaign tatics, her issues with the truth, her display of lacking leadership in her campaign, and her "I" will win at all costs (forget about everyone else) attitude has cost her the election. The super deligates see her ethical flaws, and the voters have developed such strong negative feelings for the oposition that they may have rendered each other as unelectable.

The elders of the Democratic Party have something to worry about. This race is getting real dirty and the media is just feeding into the DIRT. This situation really saddens me and many others. The superdelegates need to try and end this madness, because this is getting out of hand. It looks like this race is going to destroy the party and I feel no pain for that because NOW I KNOW JUST WHERE THE PEOPLE REALLY STAND IN THESE AMERICAS.

Oh good grief, Dean, Brazile and CNN worry every time their guy gets a bump. You guys are as wimpy as your candidate.

Wow, that 16 versus 26%. I like that. Think CNN and MSNBC are going to get a clue?

I can understand why many people don't like John McCain. After all he supports the war in Iraq. A war too many people don't have the stomach for anymore. But he is the only candidate in this race who can say he will work with both parties and can actually back it up. After all he is the only candidate who clearly shows a history of working with Democrats to get things accomplished for the American people. Neither Clinton or Obama can claim that. And clearly neither one has the experience that McCain has. You might not like McCain's stance on the war but he clearly will be someone, if elected, who works with both sides and gets things done.
So Hillary and Barack can go on bickering and having their little childish high school catfight because it helps McCain get closer to becoming what this country needs, and that is a true leader, a negotiator, and someone who is strong enough to stand up for all of us and not just their special little cliques. Trust me, Hillary cares not a whit about your pathetic little life or your problems. Once she gets your vote she'll forgot about you as is you don't even exist. And Obama has not a shred of credentials that are even worth considering as Presidential quality.

Well what do you expect? When two people continuously throw mud at each other… jump on each other at every turn… while at the same time say they want to unite the country when they can't unite their own party… this is what happens.

The election will be handed to McCain because of the bad blood that will be left from this primary! Both Senators…. Obama and Clinton should be ashamed… but I doubt they are

IF OBAMA WINS I PROMISE I WILL VOTE FOR MCCAIN, BECAUSE THERE MAY HAVE BEEN ALOT OF ISSUES GOING ON WITH BILL IN THE WH BUT LIFE WAS ALOT BETTER. WITH OBAMA REV WRIGHT NAFTA I BELIVE THERE IS SOMETHING REAL FISHY ABOUT OBAMA. I HAVE MET ALOT OF SMOOTH TALKERS IN MY TIME AND OVER TIME THEY NEVER AMOUNTED TO MUCH OF ANYTHING.

What the dem officials need to do is put an end to this, cause it is really hurting the campaign, and Hilliary is not stopping it is a do or die in her eyes, so please put this to rest.

I will never vote for Hillary. After this whole bitterness mess . I would rather not vote at all then watch her in office. Now she has McCain talking about not going at her and just focusing on trying to get Obama out of the race cause he wants to run against Hillary seals it for me. I will never vote for Hillary. Period.

OK, Dems

You have LOST me as a voter!

I truly can't stand this crap.

I suggest that Hillary and Barack go back to WORK at their day jobs as SENATORS. It has been almost two years since this charade began!

I am NOT going to vote in Oregon's primary and I am NOT going to vote in November….

Not for anyone!

Too much, too much, too much!

I am one of those who will never vote for Obama if he wins the nomination of my party and I have told the DNC that fact. Obama demeans Hillary and shows arrogance. Now, he has 40 million dollars in his campaign chest and he can throw everything at her. I believe that if the early states had known about Rev. Wright and had heard Obama's put down of small town voters earlier, they would never have voted for him. It is a shame that this man is almost ready to win this contest. We Democrats are about ready to blow this general election again. Let Florida and Michigan seat the delegates they elected. Surely they are as Democratic as those caucuses.

Those democratic elders should ask Clinton to drop out the. The odds are really against her; just look at the math.

These polls are seldom accurate. Have to wait til the votes are counted — and then pray that they weren't altered, a la the 2000 election putting
Bush in office instead of Gore.

Don't worry Wolf, as soon as Pelosi, Reed, Gore, and Edwards have a public meeting / rally about the democratic nominee, this will not stick. The party will be united by November, mark my words sir!

And there are convervative republicans out there like me that don't like or trust either one of them.

If Billary, and her ClintRovian tactics, can't win she won't bat an eye taking the Peoples Party down with her!

Once a Republican always a Republican!

McSame Clinton in 2008…………………………………..for more of the same.

obama didn't just say that you are bitter. He said that when the going gets rough you become a racist, "antipathy to people who aren't like them or anti-immigrant sentiment" or that you "cling "to guns or religion". only when the going gets rough. I don't expect the Obama fans to get this. They have closed their ears and brains off to what this bigot says a long time ago. They transfer his inflamatory remarks off onto McCain or Clinton even though there was a responsibility ontheir part to reject his comments and to respond to his inflamatory blurting that he did behind closed doors and behind peoples backs.. I love it.really, just reading the obama supporters comments. They try to justify his biggot comments by saying that they are bitter people. How far will they go to support this bigot?
