Billy from FL

I am black and if Obama was not in the race, I would have supported Edwards, not Clinton.

O.K. she may be 6 points ahead. So what ? She'll pick up 2 or 3 more delegates and we'll be back to the REAL issue. That she should step down at this point.

Hillary is quitting nowhere! The more we have this club of "push Hillary off" and force Obama down the voters throat :The more angry the voters will react by throwing Obama out in all the primaries!!

I am proud of Hillary for being a fighter.

it won't matter. Hillary has her supporters in such a wild frenzy that they will continue to forget all about the issues in november. In their childishness, they will vote for McCain out of spite.

And the Obama supporters are aware that there simply isn't a contrast between Hillary and McCain, so they probably won't vote at all.

I just hope that whoever LOSES the nomination reminds all democrats, in no uncertian terms, that the election in november is about the contrast between a democrat and a republican - not hillary and the rival of hillary's rival.

To be quite straightforward on the matter, the goals of hillary and obama are almost the same - it's just the means of accomplishing them that differ wildly. Hillary's means are very similar to that of McCain, Bush, and every president we've every had - "leave all responsibility to the government, and just go on your merry way." Obama's is to get you informed and give you a voice.

The leadership of the Democratic Party disgusts me. In 2006, we voted in a Senate majority charged with putting a stop to the Iraq war. Instead, they immediately caved in to the Reublicans, despite the fact that Bush has the lowest approval rating of any President since Nixon, and a vast majority of Americans want us out of Iraq now.

Two years later, we have a renegade candidate who has no chance of winning, doing her best to drag down our eventual nominee. Hillary couldn't do a better job on McCain's behalf than if she were the WarMonger himself. And what do the Democratic superdelegates do? Quiver and whine and equivocate…anything but grow a spine and pull the plug on a campaign that is destroying the Party!

Hey Barney! If you think Hillary should drop out, why not say you're voting for Obama?! And PA voters…take a look at the numbers, would you? Hillary is going to lose…so why continue to support her vendetta against our nominee?!!

The ability to find the simple inside what's complicated is one of the most precious gifts of a genius.
Obama has it, Clinton does not.

At least a majority of her supporters have common sense….unless they prefer four more years of Bush compared to almost the identical candidate, different personality.

Obama 08

I'm supposed to support Clinton, given that I am a white male without a full college education in a medium-sized city…right?

Wrong. It gets old seeing Clinton supporters credit Obama's strength in numbers to the black vote or to sexist voters. Obama promises a departure from politics as usual. He's younger and can actually motivate people to raise their voices and demand change. All Clinton has done thus far is anger people.

Let the voting play out until June…whomever is ahead should be the nominee. Michigan and Florida (that includes my vote, folks) should not count. Clinton can't catch up. As Obama said previously, Clinton has every right to stay in the race, but not a very good reason.

If Romney had stayed in the race, I beleive the republican nommine would be undecided, like our democratic candidates. I beleive Romney step down to strenghten the republican party, by getting behind one candidate as soo as possible. Hukabe and McCain weren't no where as competetive and melicious as Obama and Hillary.

After carefully viewing all the tic for tac, I think Hillary has really proved herself to be a person who would go to any length to get you to vore for her. As a youth, Obama has taken us into a new direction in which we have something to look forward to in the government system, how policies are voted and made aware to the American People. Hillary only talked about her experience and husband Bill. I think that Obama should be the President that will bring new ichanges and help the people to get this country back on track. As a Youth Please Stand with me and vote for Obama.

Obam 08

BHO is done, stick a fork in him.

He may win the nomination but he cannot now win the election. He is damaged goods.

If he looses any two of FL, PA, OH, WI, MI he has little hope of winning the electoral college and he's polling behind or even with JSM in all these states before the guns and bitterness comments.

22% of Dem women will not vote for him and now it appears there is a substantial amount of blue collar white Dem men who will not vote for him.

How in the world does he overcome that in the general.

Again, stick a fork in him.

Article makes a good pooint but doesn't make it.

The folly of the Democrats. With either candidate it will be the Superdelegates who decide the nomination.

Not the voting public.

And apparently certainly not the Democrat Party voters in Florida and Michigan.

And this from a bunch who wailed and moaned that voters were disenfranchised in Florida in 2000…

Go figure. Or, suspend your disbelief and go figure.

Hillary should not drop out until the Superdelegates weigh in. And if they don't weigh in until the convention. So be it.

Hopefully they will have the sense not to nominate a person who has no chance of winning in November… (that would be Obama)

Oh no. Hillary would not drop out until she destroys the party then endorse McCain later.

Why can't people let democracy take its course. CNN should edit some of these remarks, they are down right offensive

HILLARY,
GOD DOES NOT WANT YOU TO BE THE PRESIDENT OF
THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!!
How do I Know????????????????

He has Already Told the MAJORITY of people who He has created, MALE and FEMALE who live NORTH, SOUTH, EAST AND WEST of this Country to VOTE for OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!

The People are Hearing God and so are The Superdelegates.

If you go to church alittle more than Easter and Candidate Sunday you will hear HIM too!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT……..YOU GO GOD!!!!!

Yeah, Right! Like that's gonna happen!

This nomination process is going down to the last delegate at the convention - thanks to the Clinton's donkey-like stubborn-ness - how quaint!

Lotsa Luck!

Lets face it people…HRC is behind in the popular vote, pledged delegates, and states won….It's almost impossible to convince the superdelegates that she more electable than Senator Obama. It would be in the best interest on the Democratic party if she gracefully bowed out instead of dragging this out further destroying the chances of Democratic success by making McCain viable in November!

What he is saying SEN. HILLARY ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Pack you bags and go!

HILLARY HAS MORE THAN A SLIGHT LEAD IN PENN!!!!!

I EXPECT THAT SHE WILL WIN BY DOUBLE DIGITS!!!!!!

OBAMA'S BETTER THAN YOU ATTITUDE IS GOING TO COST HIM BIG!!!!

THE FACT IS—- HE HAS NOT WON THE LARGE STATES NEEDED TO WIN THE PRESIDENCY!!!!!

NONE OF HILLARY'S PEOPLE ARE GOING TO VOTE FOR HIM AFTER EVERYTHING THAT HE HAS DONE DURING THIS RACE!!!

HE SPENDS MILLIONS BUT NEVER REALLY SAYS WHAT HE WILL DO?

HILLARY HAS THE EXPERIENCE AND TENACITY TO FIGHT FOR THIS COUNTRY!!!!

I TRUST HER!

I DO NOT TRUST HIM!!!!

GO HILLARY!!!!!!!

Why can't people leave the lady and her money alone,she has worked hard and no one should be jealous of her.As for Obama he knows how to talk his way out of crap, can't americans see that their country needs a seasoned person to pull them out of the crap they are in.Why put someone who is green and says things taht are offensive and the talk talk his way out. I think you Americans are making another mistake like you did with george bush. so cut the crap and let the lady become the next pres. Also the media is too harsh on her ,you the media is pathetic.

I guess that everyone has realized now… that neither Obama nor Clinton can win the nomination…

It seems to me (average American voter)… that the super delegates do not want to choose a candidate or be responsible if they pick a candidate that ends up losing in November… I am not sure either one of them can deliver!!!

It's not true that it's virtually impossible Hillary can win in the popular vote if Florida and Michigan were counted. In fact, it is likely she would win the popular vote if MI and FL were counted.

I guess that means Obama will be leaving the race pretty soon. Regardless of who's "trailing", the real issue is who can beat McCain in November. And it's not Obama. He has WAY

Yes! Go, Hillary go - as in GET OUT OF THE RACE! We've got to find some peaceful way to end this race and unify behind our nominee in the fall. Dems will be slaughtered otherwise

fair enough, Barney…. but in the interests of electoral transparency and good govt, can we get the names of all persons who attended
closed door fundraisers for both obama and HRC this election campaign? it should be elementary that a closed door fundraiser,
closed to the press, is not open and above board….. so who all was attending the infamous Obama fundraiser in san fran 10 days ago where the bitter comment was made? word is that the Obama campaingn is LIVID that his stupid remarks were posted on
the huff. report…. come on, Barney, you are a good democrat, let's know the names of everyone who has attended the closed door fundraisers for obama AND HRC!!

Hey Hillary, guess who he's talking to?

Thank-you Barney Frank for once again being the voice of reason. Atleast SOMEBODY is thinking of the party, not their narcicistic need for power and popularity!

HIllary should get out today. She is a liar!

When the math proves the inevitable loss of either canidate, that canidate should get behind the winner and work hard to show why the Republican platform is not in the best intrest of the average American Citizen. The new congress might change then too. It's the Congress stupid !!!

Unfortunately, I think Hillary will do the same with Barney Frank's comment as she does with unpaid bills. She won't pay attention.

THANK GOD IT,S COMING OUT FROM THE CLINTONS SIDE ENOUGH IS ENOUGH,THIS WOMAN CALLED HILLARY IS TRYING TO DENIAL THE CHANCES DEMOCRATES HAVE IN THIS ELECTION AND IF THEY MISS IT NOW!!!!!!!!!!! THEY MISS 4EVER.TAKE IT FROM ME

Why we have to wait such long! On April 23rd Obama will drop out
Hillary 08

The latest round of bashings from Clinton/McCain are by misrepresenting and extrapolating upon what Obama said. This is exactly out of the Bush/Rove fearmonger playbook. If the populace cannot see through these misrepresentations; heaven help us as we have become a polarized nation that WILL not listen and communicate with each other. Some example for the world!

Why would superdelgates want Clinton or Obama to drop out? Clinton or Obama can not win the nomination without the superdelgates votes. The problem is the vote, they do not want to vote, they are acting like they do ever day running from problems, not solving problems and doing nothing to solve our countries problems.

A lot of people here seem to have very questionable math skills. Hillary is behind in popular vote by 700,000 without Florida and Michigan. Pennsylvania alone has 4 million voters. She can make up a lot of that 700000 there, then go to Indiana, and Kentucky, and West Virginia, Puerto Rico, lose some in NC and OR, and be a lot closer than you all make it seem. If Florida and Michigan went 55-45 to hillary, that closes the gap. So i fail to see how anyone thinks she has no chance to catch the popular vote. And the popular vote should matter, since the last time the US went against the popular vote, we were left with George Bush instead of Al Gore.

It is a sad day for Americans, when Democrats would rather not vote at all, if their candidate does not get nominiated. Lets get it together people. This is a Republician dream come true. Do you all hate Hillary or Barrack so much, that you are willing to give the Repubs the election on a silver platter? Stop acting like spoiled children, who can't get their own way. If you are a Democrat you should vote with who ever gets the nomination. This is not a popularity contest. This is real.

Right ON!

Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah the fact is Obama can not make it to 2024, no matter how you do the math he doesn't have the delegetes and he has proved to be unelectable in Nov. Why doesn't he get out of the race now, he could become a preacher like Wright and have all these discussions and debates about race, In the meantime we need a president that will stand up and fight for the people and who will govern the country and let Obama the preacher, have his open debates on why whites are racsist and let president Hillary Clinton clean up after Bush.

Hillary is trying to ensure Republican victory in November so she can run again in 2012. She's even adopting Republican talking points. I hope if McCain wins, people see through her power hungry ambition and make sure she gets nowhere near the nomination in 2012.

go to the Slate Delegate tracker…..even if Her Evilness wins 64% of each of the 10 remaining contests, she still can't catch Barack in delegate count….64-36 in North Carolina or Oregon…..don't think so….
si se puede!!!

YEAH Hillary drop out and stop shaming the women if this country!!!

FYI…here in Michigan they just published poll results that say that is Hillary is the Dem against McCain…McCain will take Michigan. If it is Obama against McCain then Obama will take Michigan in November. Interesting since Hillary "won" our primary. I can't remember a time when Michigan voted Republican for President. There are to many union workers here. Wait maybe that's the issue…our "fabulous Governor" is running all the union jobs out of Michigan…maybe we are becoming a red state after all……..

If you willing to vote for McCain, you don't want Hillary in the White House, period. They stand virtually identical on almost all issues, so it's nothing more then a popularity contest to most of you. And to you, Fred the idiot….you sir are a idiot. Republician in sheep's clothing.

Democrat 08′

GET OVER YOURSELVES PEOPLE, OR IT'S 4 MORE YEARS OF BUSH!!

Right ON!

For Jimmy and Hillary supporters, please do not use uppercase letters to write. It is talking down on the reader. This is so true for most of the "narcissistic-histronic" Hillary supporters.

My younger child won several medals in seveal hard-fought races. But my wife tells me that the older child will best respresent our family. So, my wife nags me to take the medals away from the younger child and give it to the older child because he/she is more "representative" of the family!! Wow, what a decision the superdelgates who are not narcissistic would have to make soon!

I SAY HILLARY LEAVE NOW BECAUSE PEOPLE HAVE KNOWN YOU WHERE A LIAR BUT NOT A CONSTANT LIAR GO HOME YOU HAVE NEARLY BROKE THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY

not in June but NOW….

Hillary is already planning for 2012…it's her or the party goes down !!

It amazes me how one sided in coverage CNN and several other news agencies are. Slam Clinton, poor little B Obama….How about asking Obama….how much did Rezko actually finance for you and how much was related to your being elected? Your spiritual advisor makes Bin Lauden look as though they believe the same things, and what about your friendly neighborhood terrorist, Bill Ayers? Your campaign admittedly said you were friendly and on 9-11-01 this fool said he was not sorry for the bombings he started in the US. And he is a professor.. Please, only in a campaign….I believe Obama should get out before he gives this election to McCain.

Interesting coming from a Clinton supporter since she is behind and can't conceivably catch up. I wouldn't vote for Hillary if she were running for mayor! She's a liar and cannot be trusted.

More media misinformation about how unlikely it is that Hillary can catch up in popular vote - she is currenly only 94,000 votes behind Obama and will likely take the lead after Pennsylvania, Yes, Florida and Michigan count - popular votes were certified in those two states and the DNC cannot scrub those although they may not seat the delegates selected as a result of those votes. This still doesn't change the fact that there is a popular vote total that the media is hiding from the public.

The problem with blogs is that they are used, for the most part, by young people who are tech savvy. Keep in mind, there are a lot of people out there who don't blog or watch Youtube. They're not swayed by the polls. Wait and see what the election results are before you call for Sen. Clinton to back out of the race.

If a young African American man were running for Student Body President at a university (pick any), would you tell his opponent, any of his opponents, to back out before the election was over? I don't think so. If anything, you would want to hear more before you made a final decision. Am I wrong?

Hillary yuo haven't proven to the people of this country that you're more electable!

You haven't proven that you understand and have the pulse of the people, you haven't proven that you CAN run a campaign wihtout in-fighting, you haven't proven that deep down inside you're NOT a liar, you haven;t proven that you're NOT an elitist!

Why is it that different media outlets have posted greatly different results for the delegate race? Why ? When I look closely, I see the conservative media giving more delegates to Obama because they think that McCain will beat Obama more easily.

There are still 900 delegates that have not been designated to a certain candidate so that means the choice is still wide open. However, the media and political pundits think they can give their candidate of choice a boast by a wishful posting of possible delegates. And I call that inaccurate reporting. Bias media reporting, again and again. When will it stop? After the damage is done.

The Honorable Mr. Frank–whose secular agenda doesn't represent anyone but those who continue to keep him somehow in office–doesn't represent the millions of Democrats who want to allow this process to go to the convention.

Indeed–there are many Democrats who would have prefered the prior candidates–or who may have changed their minds since their own state's primaries.

Let it go to the convention–if necessary let the delegates decide.

Why should the popular votes count for the Primaries–when they don't count for the general election?

BRAVO! It's time for more HRC supporters to stand up and tell her to take her medicine like a woman. It's long past time to bow out gracefully. Just bow out. We've got to end this circular firing squad, and target McSame.

"It also remains unlikely Clinton can catch Obama in the popular vote, even if the results of the disputed primaries in Florida and Michigan are factored in."?

Are you serious? Whoever posted this article should be immediately fired!!! If MI (given Obama all the uncommitteed) and FL count, winning PA by only 5% will cut the popular vote down to less than 100K. Double digit win in PA will give Clinton the lead. Do the math!

How many times do you need to fudge "news"?

Keep insulting Hillary supporters, Obama ppl! And then if your boy manages to be nominated, watch us NOT vote for you in November… Hillary drops out, we all drop out. Happy election!

America is ready for a woman president, but Hillary is not the one.

YOU ARE DIVIDING US, HILLARY. Stop the dirty campaiging and go home.

HILLARY IS NOT ELECTIBLE AFETR LIEIN ABOUT BOSNIA AND FORGHN POLICY AND COLUMBIA AND NAFTA TRADE DEALS…..THE WOMAN WHO DIED B/C SHE SAID THET SHE DIDNT HAVE INSURANCE, VOTEN FOR THE STATES OF FL AND MI NOT TO COUNT AT THE BEGAINING OF THE PRIMARIES AND WANTING TO RENIG ON IT B/C SHE IS LOOSING ( I LIVE IN fl ) BY THE WAY.., NOT BEING ABLE TO MANAGE HER CAMPAGHN FUNDS AND NOT PAYING EMPLOYEES OF THE CAMPAGHN. HAVING YOU CHIEF STRAGEST MEET WIT COLUMBIA TO DISCUSS TRADE DEALS.. HOW CAN YOU RUN A COUNTRY AND NOT EVEN RUN A CAMPAGHN

HILLARY IS NOT ELECTIBLE

can i just ask the obama supporters one question: if hillary should drop out and clinton CANT win — why is obama even out stumping at all? when mccain was clear to win and huckabee was still in it he didn't stump nearly as much as obama is right now?? so i'm a little puzzled: obama is clearly trying so HARD because he knows that there is a real chance for hillary clinton to make a wonderful comeback and it's really very easy to see why cnn and the other media favor obama — for every clinton supporter on this forum there are 5 clinton haters BRUSH THEM HATERS OFF HILLARY she's a fighter plain and simple she's fighting so hard to get the job she knows she's better qualified to have over obama and she'll fight JUST AS HARD TO get real results for the american people in jan 09

All you Hillary supporters are on something. Hillary WILL NOT win big in PA. She WILL NOT win North Carolina. She got boo'ed at a speech in Pittsburgh.

THE TRUTH HURTS! Glad Barack is upfront. I am bitter. A bitter Pennsylvanian about the fact that people are still backing Hillary. Let 2 real canidates fight it out. Bye Bye Hillary. Your commercials are jokes. Your a joke. Your husband is a joke. Take your jokes out of PA and out of the Country!

OBAMA 08

That is easy to say because if Hillary don't catch up she will start throwing fits so you better be careful how you speak.

Hillarious has given Democrats,women and the entire human race a bad name. But very consistent with the Clinton legacy.Hillary please campaign in Alaska so we can hear tales about you dog-sledding thru Whitewater to get someone to the hospital in Bosnia under sniper fire.It really 'takes a village" to come up with the tales the seem to follow you & Bill.

I believe all factors need to be weighed when selecting the democratic nominee. Within the last 6 weeks Obama has made some significant campaign faux pas. Clinton, because she is a democrat , has not even begun to take the gloves off with respect to attacking Obama's vulnerable aspects. Come fall the republicans will have a lot to exploit and attack with regards to Obama.
it's gonna be interesting come Fall.

All states must be counted and certified as well as Michigan and Florida.

I guess Mr. Frank really is not a Clinton supporter.

If I know anything, I know that Barack Obama will NOT win the election in November!

I do not understand the minds of people who would think he would make a good President!

I'm an Obama supporter, I admit it, won't hide it. With that said, I still believe that the process should be allowed run to the convention.

All of the people need to have a say (except MI and FL, because they didn't follow the rules and their states democratic party leadership won't pay for a do over). Even MI and FL should have a say IF they pony up for a do over, which I don't think will happen.

You break the rules, you pay the price. The DNC made the rules, the candidates agreed, and the states decided to act on their own to change the rules and got held accountable. It's the system at work. It's not perfect, but it's what everyone agreed to so suck it up and deal with it. The candidates don't get a say, the states have to make it right by the DNC rules. Even a 6 year old gets it. If you don't play by the rules, then you don't get to play.

If the world needs to blame someone, blame the FL and MI state democratic party leadership. They are the ones who did this to you, not the candidates or Dean in the DNC. Put blame where it belongs, and hold them accountable for the loss of your vote and voice.

Obama will win the democratic nomination because the voices of the people from the states who played by the rules will be heard.

At long last, A VOICE OF REASON!

Thanks, Barney.

Ya, why bother with this silly little thing called DEMOCRACY and those silly little things called VOTES.

I for one do not want to end up with a weak candidate Dukakis/Kerry hybrid version 2.0

Hillary is the only hope for a Dem in the White House.

Get the facts not the hype!

Her "slash and burn" campaigning only generates animosity. Enough drama- Hillary Go Home!!

I think it is time to "turn off the lights, the party's over" for Sen. Clinton. The longer this primary continues the more damage the Democrats do to themselves and it creates voter fatigue for the November election. We have seen her lead in a state that was supposed to be heavily favored in Sen. Clinton by as much as a 26% lead, now drop to a 4-6% lead. She has an almost impossible chance to run the remaining table of primaries while winning with HUGE margin of victories in the final primaries. Let's look at the wall together at the writing on the wall. Just remember you don't have to go home but you are going to have to leave this nomination process.

I want to know why the Scotsman is reporting that Carter and Gore are already having private talks with Clinton to get her to drop out now? Is it true? And if so, why won't she do it? I'm really, really tired of her pandering.

Go Obama!

Hillarious has given Democrats,women and the entire human race a bad name.

Because of Hillary I really think that the democrats are going to lose. She cuts into their chances everyday that she tears that party down.

Now this is a Hilary supporter Note to all you other Clinton supporters. If Obama would have been in the same position Hilary is in now superdelgates would have been moved to her and the only reason they have not is because they are scared of the clinton's for so long just because he is the former Presdient doesn't mean people owe his wife? Let make the Best decision for the party and vote Barack Obama in the White House

Well, then Hillary needs to leave now, because mathematically, it's impossible for her to catch Obama.

All you people who say african americans are only voting for Obama because of his skin colors are closet racist. I'm an african american in the military and I am voting for Obama because he would not have sent me and my fellow white brothers and sisters out to IRAQ for personal gain. He obvisouly understands how to be diplomatic, that takes experience. Something HRC and McSame don't pratice considering they have all this experience they claim.

So, I say to you all, knock of this SHIGETY.

Is anyone willing to confront Hillary about her husbands $800,000 supporting Columbian trade…while she is against it? This is recent news…and its absolutely invisible in the discussion. Anyone at all willing to ask her a direct question? Until then, the media will be distracted with the stupidity of who feels 'bitter'. Shocking.

I think Barney Frank should drop out. Let it go to the convention and let democracy choose the candidate. Superdelegates can vote on this and if it has to go to a second ballot or beyond, so be it.

Keep it up Dems. You're making the Republicans look more organized every day.

Hillary just got owned by her own supporter!!!

YEAH Hillary drop out and stop shaming the women if this country!!!

Hillary should learn to put the victory of the democrates first.. Breaking up the party and giving easy advantage to John Mccain would do no good.

Be wise and drop out now mama !!!

Obama 4 president '08

Bye bye Obama!!!!

Clinton -08

American Electorates have not learnt to sift issues from attacks, so politicians will continue to exploit this.

Until electorates start sending the signal that they will not tolerate attacks be it from Obama/Clinton/Mccain then we are in for another Bush/Rove politics.

Your votes determine the course America takes.

YES..OBAMA IS IN TOUCH WITH THE PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY THAT STRUGGLE TO MAKE A LIVING DAY TO DAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hillary is single-handedly being allowed to tear this party apart— It is absolutley shameful– iF HER NAME WAS NOT CLINTON THIS NOMINATION WOULD HAVE BEEN OVER!

She constantly prays on the fears of the american people all so she can be placed in the most powerful position in this country—

She doesn't care about you or understand where most of us come from!

The countries worries cannot and will not change until the people in Washington change as well and Hillary will not do that— SHE WILL MAINTAIN THE SAME OLD,SAME OLD!

CIINTON IS ONLY AHEAD BECAUSE OF THE STATEMENT OBAMA SAID IN CA. WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN, SHE'S GOING TO KEEP RIDING IT UNTIL THE FOLKS ARE GOING TO REALIZE SHE IS TRYING TO THROW THE KITCHEN SINK. I FEEL HILLARY HAD NO IDEA ABOUT THE COMMON FOLKS, YOU HAVE TO BE COMMON STRUGGLING FOLKS. SHE HAS NEVER BEEN ON FOOD STAMPS, LIVE FROM PAY CHECK TO PAY CHECK, I SORRY HER AND MCCAIN DON'T HAVE A CLUE ABOUT BEING POOR.

I am getting sick and tired of Hillary supporters trying to blackmail the Democratic party. Your constant threats to vote Republican just goes to show the ignorance backing Hillary. Do you really think, in the end, there is much difference between Obama And Clinton? I have no doubt you will jump ship when the time comes, but your terroristic threats won't change my vote.

OK, Obama may be the nominee–I am very sure he will get slashed in the debates against McCain and lose the general election for sure. You may not like Hillary, but she is the only one who can get this country out of the mess.
I don't know what it is about this Obama Craze, he is just "fake". We don't even know his true past and records for sure as he has not been in the media all these years. I trust Hillary much more than him.
Go Hillary!

CIINTON IS ONLY AHEAD BECAUSE OF THE STATEMENT OBAMA SAID IN CA. WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN, SHE'S GOING TO KEEP RIDING IT UNTIL THE FOLKS ARE GOING TO REALIZE SHE IS TRYING TO THROW THE KITCHEN SINK.

SHE HAS NEVER BEEN ON FOOD STAMPS, LIVE FROM PAY CHECK TO PAY CHECK, I SORRY HER AND MCCAIN DON'T HAVE A CLUE ABOUT BEING POOR.

Hillary will not drop out even if PA is lost as she will cling with hopes to get the remaining Super Delegates to her fold. She will fight to the very end even if it means McCain gets the boost.

The happiest person on Earth is the one who does not have a shirt on his back, a home to go to every night or even a job to earn a decent living. She/he does not have to worry about high prices or mortgage payments. Obsama was wrong, deadly wrong and insulting when he used the word BITTER. Many of us are happy and proud of our situation and many will follow soon when we loose our jobs and home.No more mortgage payments!!!!!

Thank you Clintons for making us happy and proud, Hillary will surely make our numbers grow. Obama should stop trying to change our lives with his truth and intergrity. We do not need honest leaders.

I am getting sick and tired of Hillary supporters trying to blackmail the Democratic party. Your constant threats to vote Republican just goes to show the ignorance backing Hillary. Do you really think, in the end, there is much difference between Obama And Clinton? I have no doubt you will jump ship when the time comes, but your terroristic threats won't change my vote.

Clinton will never quit and here is why.
#1: She needs all of you to keep sending her money because she is in debt in her campaign and she wants the people to pay it off for her. So all you people that don't have much money, keep sending your hard earned cash to her while she keeps her millions in the bank.

#2: Hillary and Bill truly believe the WH is theirs and will stop at nothing to get it back. Remember how much they tried to steal from the WH and Air Force One when they left. They are dirty thieves.

#3: Hillary would rather destroy the party than drop out gracefully. Some people see this as, she is a fighter. The truth is, she is a devious and selfish person.

Get lost Hillary, we don't want you or your sexually abusive husband in our White House ever again.

It seems to me that Rep. Barney Frank is saying that it is time for Hillary Clinton to back out….Now….rather than later

Bye bye Obama!!!!

Clinton -08

Let's Hillary keep on going, the longer she hangs around, the better chance she will prove she is better candidate

Hillary is a liar, and "an elitist". that has taken part in the reason
our jobs are gone. gone, jobs are gone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
No thank you to a woman the lies and cheats her way to the
top. I would rather vote for a canine.

Obama just spoke the truth…nice of a politician to do that.

Hillary should go, why is America even considering another Clinton???

Bye Billary

Clinton just boils my blood. She is the absolute worst of the worst.
She can stoop to any low to win, you name it, she will stoop to anything.

Such a liar and hypocrite.

Enough of the same ol dirty horrible politics of the past! Enough already!

You can bet Hillary will stay in to the bitter end — regardless of collateral damage. Her inflated ego and zeal for power are factors that far outweigh doing the right thing.

hillery should get out of this race, so that the democratic party can
focus on the republicans. Obama is the answer to america's problems.
They say he needs more exp. well we got exp. in house now, and look
at the economy, insurance,gas prices, housing problems, war!
They say a lot of things, hillary Clinton bring lies and old democratic polotics
and Bill Clintons back to the white house, its time for some new blood,
and new ways for our country, Obama has surrounded himself with
people from all aspect of government to run this country, it's about
being right the first time when making good sound judgement.

Someone finally is displaying common sense. Sooner better than later to repair the damage that has already been done and to prepare for the general election.
With this being said, if the math is accurate and Hillary cannot overtake the popular vote and the delegate count, then Hillary should leave now.
We will need unity to regain the White House!

Not without Michigan and Florida votes counting.

You can not force Obama on us even if he is the party nominee- we have the right and obligation to vote for the BEST candidate.

That is NOT Obama.

We know you John, why? Because we've seen you for seven years. You are the spitting image of GW, and you know it. You love his war so much that you are chomping at the bit to start another one, with Iran.

We know you John, and it's not a pretty picture.

Berry Obama needs to drop out Now but he will not. He wants to drag the country down and he is doing a good job of it. If he had been white he would already be out of the running long ago.

Hey, Char in NC - The votes in MI and FL are not to be counted per the agreement tha Hillary made herself. Too late now. It is just like the dishonest person that Hillary is now showing herself to be that she now somehow thinks those votes should be counted. There is no rational agrument in the world that those votes should count. How can you make an agrument for that if she was the only candidate on the ballot in MI? I think the most interesting think about a lot of news these days are of the people that are endorsing Hillary talking about ending this thing soon. They know she is responsible for the nasty tone of this election and that she has no chance to pull it out without entirely going against the will of the people. They now know that she does not care about the people - just her blind ambition. They want this to end - and know she will not listen to them, so they will be forced to end it for her.

to Reality check #1 if you vote republican then you don't deserve your constitutional rights, the republicans are taking them away in the name of bushism. oops, i'm sorry i forgot (bush's favorite phrase)it is in the name of national security; the lies they use to frighten us into giving up our freedoms to them.

If Obama wins the nomination McCain is going to win the election anyway so what does it matter?

Last I checked neither had enough for the nomination… that tells me it's still a race. If Mich and Florida are counted it would be even closer. This race is by no means over… no matter how bad the Obama camp would like to believe it is. He continues to put his foot in his mouth and HRC gains ground. She would be foolish to drop out…

FIGHT TO THE END HILLARY… NEVER GIVE UP… NEVER SURRENDER!

AFTER THIS IS ALL OVER, THE ONLY REASON OBAMA WILL BE AHEAD IS BECAUCE FLORIDA AND MICHIGAN COULDN'T VOTE! RIGGED DEMOCRATIC PARTY!!!!

Obama the uniter has splintered the party… Humpty Dumpty and all the kings men can not put it together again.

Hillary or NO one!

BE AWARE…REPUBLICANS POSING AS DEMS ON TICKER…DEMS ARE NOT AS DIVIDED AS WE THINK…THEY BENEFIT FROM OUR DIVISION…UNITE DEMS UNITE….
CNN PLEASE POST! MY COMMENTS ARE ALWAYS AWAITING MODERATION AND NEVER GET POSTED.

He's not a Clinton backer, and he doesn't see the big trouble Obama is going to have for November.

Barney Frank should be ashamed of himself for supporting Hillary. I would have thought he would have remained neutral. But he is right about the June deadline to pick the democratic candidate.

I am mad and bitter at HILLARY because I believed her and CANCELED my VECATION to BOSINIA.

I'm sorry but we all know this woman will have to picked up and thrown out of the convention. She will never leave what she believes is rightfully hers. Barak just is the better organizer . She is not a good manager most educated voters will see this. She never thought she would be in this position last year. When she was all but handed the nomination by the MEDIA . So she will stay in just to spite Barak because she spitfull and BITTER. Barak only told the truth . I thank God for this election and If he is the Nominee against JOHN MCCRAZY. This election will finally bring out how truly we as Americans struggle within ourselves to Put the Hurt and Anger we feel toward each other to the Front. You will see the true Color of some Americans when they Finally have to choose between who is right and who is White!!!! I for one believe it will be Good for this Country to stop kidding ourselves about race realtions in this Country and For us to deal with it. Thank God for Obama and the world is watching because they see they good that this man brings out in People. Its so Funny LAST YEAR Barak was the Great Uniter and The Media said he was a Great American Story until he won Iowa !!! Then he was then Labled a Muslim and then A Republican then a Black Racist Christian Know he hates GUN OWNERS and POOR WHITE PEOPLE??

ASK YOURSELVES WHY DOES HE HAVE FIGHT SO HARD FOR THIS NOMINATION. AND THEN YOU WILL UNDERSTAND WHY HE IS WINNING BECAUSE HE IS EVERTHING THEY FEAR. !!!!

A UNITER !!!!

SO VOTE FOR HILLARY OR MCCAIN BUT we the NEW GENERATION WILL NO LONGER LET THE MEDIA AND WASHINGTON SEPERATE US .

OBAMA 08,12

A HONEST MAN WILL NEVER HAVE ANY OTHER !!!!

KING GEORGE To JOHN ADAMS

This contest should end after June 3 if MIchigan and Florida delagates are seated.

I do not think either candidate should drop out early. You never know what new scandal could change events. We may depend on the super delegates to save the democratic party!

Thank you Rep. Frank for a moment–no matter how fleeting-of common sense.

Count all the "VOTES" MI, and FL

For the record, all of you who will vote for McSame if Hickory drops out–DO IT. You were never going to vote for Barack anyway. Don't say that you were because I don't believe it for one second. So vote for more wars, more blind eyes on the economy, coming from a man who has eight homes, a rich Barbie doll wife, and NO, absolutely NO intention of addressing our problems, just his stupid war.

I think McGoo is funny because he spends most of his time, using our tax dollars to posture overseas, then comes back and says "Uh oh, I'd better say something about the economy". Like he says, he doesn't no very much about the economy, so get ready for $8. a gallon gasoline. And this stunt he pulled today about no Federal taxes for gas, yeah right, it's a temporary pacifier until he can get his hands on the war in Iraq and possibly, if he's lucky, Iran.

So vote for Mr. McGoo, you'll get what you deserve.

BE AWARE…REPUBLICANS POSING AS DEMS ON TICKER…DEMS ARE NOT AS DIVIDED AS WE THINK…THEY BENEFIT FROM OUR DIVISION…UNITE DEMS UNITE….

Here is a news flash for the CNN newsroom!!!

When Hillary talked Monday about the Obama' bitter' comments and the people BOOED….THEY WERE BOOING OBAMA NOT HILLARY. Come on CNN, get it right and delete your blatant bias.
Nick

This country doesn't need Mr. Obama at this time. We need someone who is ready to do the job. Mrs. Clinton is the one for this nation and we need her ASAP. Can we trust Mr. Obama?????

Tell Hillary to drop out and let Obama get ready for November… She is just divising the party… If you don't stop her we will definitely lose in November.
Medias please be fair to all the candidates… You spend time talking only about Obam's negativity… What about Clinton's? you spend less time on her lies, Mark penn, donors list,Black water… and so one…
You are just misleading poor Americans… All the Word is watching us…
I think it’s a given that if Obama says anything that America has not heard from an African American before, let alone one running for president, he’s going to have to “explain” and “opologize”. As for Hillary she would drown her twin to be president.

Some people on these blogs are so ready to be upset they don't read the entire article. They see the headlines and decide they need to twist off on somebody.

This is what Rep. Frank said

"the Democratic race should not continue past the last two primaries on June 3 and said one of the candidates should even consider getting out "sooner" if it seems inconceivable he or she could win the nomination."

On June 3rd the voting "Is Over" so everyone will have a chance to speak. You can tell he sees to writing on wall but, says waiting for the voting to end is reasonable but going to the convention floor for a fight is not.

Actually, if you were to count the FL and MI as is and the remaining states hold to form (how they are currently polling), Senator Clinton will remain behind in Votes, Delegates and States.

Look for the Fl and MI delegates to be seated after the next three primaries are completed.

Billy - If you think the only reason blacks are voting for Obama is because he is black also then you sir are an idiot. If he was white and Hillary was black, I would still vote for him before I would ever vote for Hillary. For you to make it seem like the only reason we (blacks) vote is based off of a color shows how ignorant you are. You might want to choose another argument to persuade the super delegates. Obama isn't just winning off of black votes I do believe there are a couple of white people voting for him as well.

Step aside Billalary and give America a chance to move forward.

Barney Frank once again is a voice of reason. This man has had my respect and admiration for a long time. I respect and admire many Clinton supporters. This one speaks the truth and she needs to LISTEN.

The super-delegateds need to back Obama now if they want to end this mess. Hillary is feeding into the Republicans to destroy our nominee. They need to stop her NOW by making it clear she will not win and get on with fighting McCain instead of helping him. It is clear she is not going to win. She is staying to ruin Obama so she can run in 2012. She will stop at NOTHING.

Added to my previous comment where I thought I was unkind and harse to Barney…..I love you but I am scarred by what Richardson did to Hillary. I was wrong to take out my anger at you. Sorry! But I remain a Hillary supporter. Hope you accept my apology.

This is want Bill Clinton should have said months ago.
Hillary back off and wait for another day.
What super delegates and media are not saying, in no political history has someone trailled so much and lost so much and continued to hang on.
12 losses in a rrow, behind all indicators: money, votes,appeal,unity,
you name it and continues to stick around. There must be something wrong right there !!!
Where are the party custodians ?!!!

Yes please, she must drop out…somebody wake me up when this HRC nightmare is over. Hope it's sooner than later.

Barney just go sit on it,no dont,you might enjoy it too much.

I agree. This thing is destroying the democratic party. Whoever is behind should drop out. Simple as that. It's time for us to stand behind one democratic candidate. The republicans are happy that we're fighting eachother.
When the Votes from MI., and FL. are counted Hillary will be our candidate

Billy from FL - You imply that it is wrong for 99% of Blacks (it's actually less than that) to vote for Obama, but it's okay for them to vote for Clinton.

That makes no sense.

I am now going to hack ur IP adress and then we'll see how's advice will count!!!

Why HIllary is still in the race? She sould drop out now.

Let the process play itself out and let all votes be counted. And use the superdeagates. That's what the superdelagates are there for.

I have been confused anyway….
Every news station for a month has been adding up numbers and saying that there is no way she can catch up to him, even if she wins PA. So why are they dragging this out. Her acts and lies are destroying the Dem. party and herself.

to
Knowledge is Power
you definatly don't have eother or you would not be backing mcbush

Before all this bitter talk, Hillary herself had said that the "Average American" is going around looking for "someone to blame."

So now that the economy is bad, according to Clinton, the average American is going around blaming immigrants.

"There are signs of festering intolerance even among Democratic audiences, noticeably in Iowa, which has seen a surge of Latino immigration in recent years. The Democratic candidates are uniformly in favor of comprehensive immigration reform, including a path to citizenship for those who have entered the country illegally. But they receive sharp — pointed — applause when they say illegals should "have to speak English" before becoming citizens. When I asked Hillary Clinton about that, she said she'd noticed it too and added, "During the 1990s, I cannot remember being asked about immigration… Why? Because the economy was working… And average Americans didn't have to go around looking for someone to blame."

Al least some one in her campaign can tell her the truth… lol

billy from Fl April 15th, 2008 12:21 pm ET

SUPER DELIGATES DO THE RIGHT THING, IF YOU DON'T PUT
HILLARY AS THE NOMINEE< WE ARE GOING TO LOOSE

Hmm… Billy, if we are going to 'loose,' how do we tight?

Travis, do you have a clue?? He's saying let the people decide! After the last primary has been held, the one lagging should drop out. The people have spoken (and I know FL and MI didn't but Hillary was okay with them not being included when she didn't need them). If it continues after the last primary–then the "people" may not be the ones deciding.

I honestly could care less if the Democratic party destroys itself. I'm not registered republican or democrat but was fully prepared to vote democratic this year. However, if Billary steals the nomination i would rather vote for mickey mouse.

Hillary should be forced to get out after Pennsylvania no matter weather she wins or loses.
Senator McCain is getting a free ride and Clinton is hurting the Democratic Party with her continued negative attacks on Obama.
Barney Franks is correct but again waiting till June is not gonna happen their will be alot of pressure to get Hillary out now.

Hillary do us all a favor and dropout.

How can Hillary even continue with all the baggage she carries with her now.

We want Change not more of the same old greedy power hungry Clintons.

I am very bitter at Clinton for dividing the Party and acting like a Republican.
Obama 08

You are focusing on the wrong person. The one ruining the chances of a Democratic win is Barak Obama. No person of sound mind, Democrat or Republican will accept this candidate from the left wing of the Democratic party. He is too divisive and using Karl Rove tactics to suppress the vote of the people. If anyone needs to bow out it is Barak not Clinton.

Nice try Barney, but see, Snobama cannot win. Take that and put it your Kerry Sandwich slightly flavored with your Dukakis sauce covered by a Mr. Snob, if you don't 'cling" to me then you are a racist, bigot who prays and honors the 2nd amendment but who cares about protecting our borders and who cares that trade deals are favorable to the American workers.

We don't give a rat's behind what the so-called "party elites think" we the people are the boss and we say Florida and Michigan must count! So do me a favor, get lost!

Char NC: You really think that counting the "popular vote" in MI is legitimate? With Barack's name not even on the ballot? (yes, he and Edwards followed the "spirit" of the DNC ruling as well as the "letter" of it… while Hillary "pulled a Clinton"… AGAIN). Many of Obama's supporters switched over to the Republican ballot, since they knew the Dem. primary was not going to count… How can that primary be considered legit??

Hillary, of course, has done ANOTHER one of her "180's" on this issue: she originally agreed to abide by the party's decision, but now she is clamoring to get those delegates back-door'ed in.

Are you simply BLIND to her flip-flopping like that? Does that not REGISTER with you??

==mcNuts likes to run against the liars…==

It is good to see Frank send a public message to Hillary despite his strong support.

There is [practically] no way Hillary can catch up with Obama at this point. She is still in the race because she is hoping a very serious scandal breaks out that will force him to quit. This would have to be a very serious legal or ethical matter, not things like 'bitter' or wright.

Hillary it is not going to happen. Take the little bit of dignity that is left and go home.

There is something called a roll call ballot at something called a convention. If Obama wants the nomination, let him win this ballot. Otherwise, let him and his supporters stop the nonstop whining.

Or don't they think he can last for the long haul? Because if he cannot stand up to Hillary until Denver, how is he going to stand up to McCain until November? Maybe his supporters don't have as much faith as they pretend.

Because of their proficiency in the art of lies, deceit, exaggeration, secrecy and their skilful practice of slandering, twisting and turning the truth to appear as lies, the Clintons in the eyes of most Canadians are the opposite of what we see in the great majority of Americans. The world and Canada are behind you to choose Senator Obama as your next president. He will restore the world’s respect and admiration for America. The great people of Pennsylvania can move to catalyze the early demise of the Clintons. We are watching and praying for you, Mr Obama and your dedicated team. God Bless America and Canada

billy from Fl what does black votes have to do with HRC dropping out of the race. Obama can't win with just black votes. It is clear that Obama has many supporters of all ethnicities. People, HRC should begin to think about the possibility that she will not be the nominee. If she loves her party she will not be the destroyer of it. Clinton has a chance to become a major leader in the party if she takes the high road.

The real reason why HRC didn't fair well during this Democratic Race is because she was ill-prepared. She was the elitist. She knew she was eventual nominee, and here came Barak Obama. Just like JFK he is what our country needs and even if it is for only 4 years it is something fresh and new.

People stop tearing down these two individuals and be real.

Bet Franks is saying that now so he can talk agains her in June. Her time is up and her tactics are week.

I believe that the reason Hillary won't pull out is because its a win-win for her.

if some major negative news comes out about Obama, she has an outside chance of coming close in the popular vote and getting enough super-delegates to win the nomination.

If Obama stays ahead, she can continue to damage him so he can't win the general election and she'll be able to run in 2012.

It's all about what's best for Hillary.

Barney Frank , is directly telling Hillary to heat off the road. men you guys can see that guys are starting to see her dead end

Hillary already knows that she won't be the nominee, but her strategy is to make sure that Obama does not win the GE.

If he does, then she won't ever be president, but if he loses then she can sit back and say "I told you so" and she may have a chance in 2012.

Hillary is obviously campaigning for 2012

Mrs Clinton (Billary, to the Clinton haters) is the only chance for the Democrats to win the presidency. Mr Barack Hussien Obama will be chewed up, swallowed and regurgitated by the Replubicans. He has certainly given them plenty of ammunition. He will never be President, only in his dreams. Cnn, you will pay an awful price for supporting BHO. I used to respect your people, but no longer. You are so biased. I always thought reporters were to appear neutral at all costs. I know you will not display this, but I really dont care.

Hey!! Nobody knows the math. Only Hillary's supporters know the math.

Carter doesn't know it. Richardson doesn't know it. Barney Frank doesn't know it. Nancy Pelosi doesn't know it. Howard Dean doesn't know it. Those supers who switched from HRC to Obama don't know it.

I mean what do these folks know anyway, huh? They have only spent their entire lives being politicians and dealing with things like these. They are all biased against the Clintons. The entire world is against the Clintons. It's all a big conspiracy to keep one of the most powerful and rich Democrats out of the White House. Not fair. Naaah, naaah, naaah. Uh-huh. They're the underdogs.

Only the Clinton supporters know the math. Hillary will win. She will, she will, she will. See?? I said it thrice. Can anyone top that?? NOW do you believe me when I say that she will win??

Will too, will too, will too.

Barney Franks should have resigned 20 yrs ago. Quit screwing the the American People via the U.S. Govt. namely the House ! Leave the Driving to US ! Barney Franks has been sitting on his "DEAD CAN" since McCain first came on the Scene, and this is all He Offer.

Who would be beter suited in the White House, Bill Clinton or Michelle Obama, Yo Mama ?

Why should the voting process be cut short for the Democratic party.
Jesse jackson stayed in the Race until November when he had no chance of winning the nomination. Hillary and Obama have a right to be heard at the National Convention and their delegates earned the right to select the candidate.

This is a nomination process not a coronation. So Frank and all you Gloom and Doom Democrats stay out of the electoral process.

By the way get the Fla and Michigan voters into the mix too.

Then we will see Whether the Orator from illinois has enough votes to win the nomination.

I say Clinton should context the nomination at the convention and destroy the party. Democrats across this country have it coming for not voting for her!!! How dare they spit in the face of inevitablity! How dare they feel bitter about the recession! How dare they question her integrity! How dare they choose complex truths over the very latest in political memes!

Hillary CANNOT WIN the majority of pledged delegates even WITH Florida an Michigan.

Unless:
a) supers goes against the will of the voters
b) pledg
