CNN TICKER: BREAKING NEWS: Mikey from Life cereal endorses Obama, even though he "hates everything", CNN experts say this is a "sure sign Obama will be our next President"…more on AC360

It is silly to say you hate Hillary when the truth is anyone who listened to her intimate detailed recollections of being under Sniper fire and then see the videos that show it was the opposite event just would never trust her. How could you honor a person with a vote who just lied boldly to America.

How could such detailed recollections be a MIstake? It was a LIE and an insult to every American who HAS been Under Fire.

Time to start playing taps over the grave of the Clinton dynasty. She's done

Like the rest of American, Reich got tired of watching Hillary tear apart the Democratic party. In the end, either Hillary or Obama will need to go up against McCain and that will not be easy. Instead of watching Hillary getting us fighting one another, why can't we come together as a national party and put our faith behind Obama.

It is the weak and losing individual that must try to smear the leader in order to get back in the race. If Hillary was able to win on her platform, her merits, and her honesty, she would be leading this nomination race instead of being well back.

Wake up Hillary supporters, lets have some unity here as our real opponent is John McCain, not each other.

Way to go Robert.
To Sara Jane from MO: Please explain how he and Richardson are traitors!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Does that mean that anyone who does not agree with you is a traitor????????????????????????????????????
The last I heard we are free to back and vote for whomever we want. For example - I back and vwll vote for Obama - a person who is for change and progress. Am I a traitor???
You back a person who has proven these past months she is a liar, a negative campaigner and someone who wouldn't know the truth if it hit her in the face. Does that make you a traitor in my eyes - no - just a stupid person.

These people are trying to look out for only themselves. They are thinking, mistakenly, that Obama will win and that there could be alot of political benefit and clout in it for themselves. When Obama starts falling apart and whining about having to debate against McCain– there's going to be ALOT of people feeling really stupid.

To quote your puppeteer: "It's just silly season in politics, folks…"

Obama's a hypocritical, back-stabbing rookie and he CAN'T debate!!

Another PLUS for OBAMA. Great. Finally it looks like the right person will be in the White House. BARACK OBAMA, CHANGE WE CAN BELIEVE IN.

Reich is NO FRIEND. Obama is totally unqualified to be President, and Reich should know better than to endorse him.

To quote Kelso from That 70s show…"Ultimate Burn!!!" Ouch Hillary, you got the smack-down again, from another one of your pals! I'd be worried about your daughter Chelsea now, bet she is thinking about endorsing Obama too, since she is fed up with the lies and treachery from her own family. Come on Chelsea, endorse Obama, you can do it! Welcome aboard, Robert Reich!

To Larry Thomas - I agree and pay attention to insider endorsements but I think its important to look more closely. The fact is most of Obama's senior staff have worked for Clinton — all that tells me is; at best Clinton hired well and gave many great training that Obama now calls upon –at worst, it is Clinton's "B" team that now work for Obama - whereas the "A" team of Albright and Rubin stick with Hillary–nobody can argue that our intl and economic policies were far superior under Clinton and these 2 advisors who now strongly support Hillary. I would rather have the original real deal Clinton team than the JV player advised by former (and possibly secondary/lower level or disgruntled?)advisors to the real deal.

Whos calling them FRIENDS, not the Clintons its the media, just because I went to school with someone or worked for someone does not make us close friends. He has never been a friend or he would not be saying these things, he would at least keep his mouth shut. He is someone that they know not a FRIEND. If he was talking about her before the Iowa primary he is just a regular guy that has his own thoughts.

Is there any supporters online who endorsed George Bush for the first two terms? I'd love to hear you tell us what happened because your candidate, now president is the worst in modern history. I don't think I would want endorsements from you guys.

Congrats Senator Obama for three new endorsements today. Thanks Secretary Reich for your support.

Obama 08

Obama thinks the questions are unfair!! "No more debates!"
"Waaaahhhhhh!"

Ready for Bin Laden or the Iranian dwarf?? "Uhhhhh, nooooo."

Mccain will eat this shallow dilletante for lunch.

Don't EVER want to see the HIll-Billys anywhere in gov'r again, but better her than this weakling.

"It out-Herods Herod!"

Earlier, someone said that if Hilliary is President, she will have Bill to help and advise her and he did well in the 90's. Well, the people who advised Bill are now with Obama. It should make you wonder what is about about BILLARY today that people are running away from. hmmmmmm

Hey Reich,

Can you please tell me about Obama's legislative accomplishments, what bills he has brought forth and how many times he has worked "across the aisle".

YOu must be nuts to endorse this elitist. I encourage Obama to run for block captain back in his Chicago neighborhood.

Obama will never be President.

TO SUSAN, PATRICK, Maggie…, STACY….

Your comment prooves that you did not understand that element of democracy. Elections in a democratic country is ACTUALLY NOT ABOUT FREINDSHIPS or CLANS.

Support based on friendship is a characteristique of dictatorship, where the dictator and his friend become a clan based on loyalty.

elections in a democratic country is about the people being free too choose, everyone basing on their consciense., all of it for the good of the whole nation.

THIS HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH LOYALTY BECUZ IT S NOT ABOUT THE CLINTON'S GOOD. iT S ABOUT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE GOOD !

We are in a free country.

ROLLIe : talking about circus, Hillary is a drama queen …and you know im right

I think this is a great endorsement for Obama. But, I am suprised the article doesn't mention that Robert Reich IS NOT A SUPER DELEGATE.

What a well-written endorsement. Those unfamiliar with Obama's policies should now take the time to check them out.

Instead of calling these people Judas' look closer.
Could it be they know the Clintons better than most?
Could it be they have a REASON to not support them?
Could it be they are BRAVE enough to not feel strong armed into supporting them?
Could it be that they have been TURNED OFF by them?

If so called friends can't support them, shouldnt that say a lot about the Clintons?

Since when does anyone in government do anything because of their conscience? You kids are getting worse with your judgment–where are your parents–sipping lattes with Kennedy, Kerry, Pelosi, Tobin, Cafferty and Dean? They must be having emergency sessions to try and disenfranchise and sabotage the rest of the states since Hilary has had a great week! Keep, looking, panel of disloyalists–you will no doubt sign up Carter when he finishes his meetings with Hamas and the rest of those anti-American dictators! Hilary all the way–from Clinton loyalist! ( also remember the glorious nineties)

But does Reich wear a flag pin and does his pastor love America as much as him? These are the important questions, right Hillary?

WAKE UP AMERICA GOD HAS CHOOSEN A NEW LEADER FOR THIS NATION . AMERICA IS GOING TO CHANGE FOR THE BEST , GO BARRACK , YOU ARE THE CHOOSEN ONE GOD BLESS YOU, MOVE OVER CLINTON AND MCCAIN.

Hillary……….it's over.

Any Democrat who does not vote for a fellow Democrat, should be permanently banned from the party. If an HRC voters for for McCain, they are for now and ever an evil republican, nuf said!

I can't understand why Obama is getting such endorsments after he flips Hillary the bird at North Carolina. It just goes to show how immature and inexperienced he is.

FRIENDS……. HOW MANY OF US HAVE THEM………….

NOT THE CLINTONS….

ANYONE SUPPORTING OBAMA IS ANOTHER JUDAS.
COME ON PEOPLE. EVERYONE IS ALIGNING BEHIND OBAMA, THAT SHOULD TELL YOU SOMETHING ABOUT WHO THE CLINTONS ARE UP TO. OPEN YOUR EYES.

Message for SC Brown:–I went thru the erticle in Chicago Tribune. I grew to admire Obama for all the common man's life he led and feelings he nurtured. If all Obama haters would read it, they would ponder-those who scorned would admire!!! What a simple man!!!

YES WE CAN! YES WE CAN! YES WE CAN!

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

ENOUGH OF YOUR PUT DOWN OF HILLARY SUPPORTERS. WE ARE TWICE A BRIGHT AND KNOW WHAT IS BEST FOR OUR COUNTRY. HILLARY 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

How is this news?

You're right Patrick Peavey it is sad when people who have known you for years have endorsed the other guy. It doesn't call into questions your "friends loyalty" near as much as it call into question your policies. If you notice that is all Reich talks about is policy so don't make it personal.

I think we all agree that endorsements dont change peoples votes however lets also be honest (if such a thing is possible) and also admit that endorsements only "MEAN NOTHING" to the person who didn't get it.

Come on America,
Lets unite and vote for the better future
Vote Barack Obama

So I guess Reich was at the San Francisco Fund Raiser and feels like Obama does. No suprise he supports him then.

Probably better he supports a dishonest, elitist like Obama than Hillary.

KEEP up the good positive work Hillary, only a low life would flip off another candidate and smirk about it.

Hillary supporters are so amusing! Everytime Obama gets an endorsement , they say it doesn't matter or that the person is only vying for a Cabinet position. Jealousy is such an ugly emotion!

So many of Clinton's friends are moving over to Obama..there must be a very good reason…fe.g,,the Bosnia story & years ago she talked down on being a housewife!!

Hillary said she 'mis spoke' about sniper fire because she was 'tired'…..yet runs an ad about 'answering the phone at 3:00 am'………think of what could happen if she 'mis spoke' then!!!! And she 'mis spoke' time and time again……
Hillary needs to admit that it's over and let Obama focus on running against McCain.

Obama is the only choice in 08

i wonder what atrocities the clintons committed during their stay in the white house ?
i mean their friends dont even want them there?
americans should heed this
hillary clinton is unelectable.
Obama 08,12

Hooray for OBAMA! He is clearly the best candidate. …& of course Hillary can stand the heat in the kitchen… the little devil!

OBAMA '08

HRC is so fake can't wait for this to be over.
Obama 08 baby!!

RJUDY - do you think by NOT buying water from them if YOU were in a desert is gonna hurt them? Hmmm? Think about that for a minute and get back to me.

Stop being haters; the Obama will win! Wake up people and smell the coffee!

Those who pay attention know that Reich's endorsement is one of the finer feathers in Obama's feather-laden cap!

Robert Reich is well respected and is a grown-up. He is also a very intelligent man, and will stand up against dirty politics by supporting Obama.

Thank you Secretary Reich, you made an excellent choice.

Obama 08

and just where do you think Obama's crew got their ideas stupid. Remember the first 10 debates, he kept saying I agree with Senator Clinton. He didn't take questions when he gave speechs, because he didn't have answers. He gives good speechs and that's all. He can't answer questions without blaming someone else. Not good enough for me. Still sticks about his MENTOR of 20 years. Not comfortable with that yet. He needs to wait longer and everything gets cleared up before I'll vote for him.

CNN - pse add my comments!

I just cannot understand how african americans can back hrc when they finally have a 'black' candidate running to be the 44th president of the usa…….. where is their sense of what is right? HRC will be just the same old politics as the bush/clinton/bush adminisrations…….. as others have so correctly made the point, the clintons will do whatever it takes to win! why no more q's to the clintons about where they received their millions of usd? from the middle east? from shady deals? they are the masters of shady deals!!!!!!!!!!!! finally, she couldn't take care of her husband while she was in the whitehouse, how she gonna take care of the country? she'll fall asleep from exhaustion and miss the boat!

Why are you not reporting this:

From NBC's Domenico Montanaro
Rep. Betty Sutton (OH-13) endorsed Clinton today, giving the New York senator one more superdelegate. Our superdelegate count now stands at Clinton 260, Obama 235. This also marks Clinton breaking even since Super Tuesday, Feb. 5. In mid-March Clinton had been at a net loss of seven delegates since Feb. 5. Obama has netted 65 delegates since Feb. 5.

Only when Obama gets an endorsement does CNN report it! How is that for a double standard. Wake up folks, the media is trying to herd you towards Obama.

Reich is an avowed Socialist, and his endorsement is one she does NOT need! His support of Osama speaks volumes!

Who really cares who endorses who? Politicians are looking for new jobs in the new administration. Right now it looks like it is going to be Obama so "Let's all jump on his band wagon." Clinton has been leading in INdiana by 16% points and in Kentucky by over 25 points.
Let us all get our chance to cast our vote for President.

What are we recycling endorsements now? Old news.
Nice try by Obama campaign.

Who won last Tuesday debate. The ABC - own (!) Poll says:

Sen. Barack Obama 45,602
Sen. Hillary Clinton 17,155
It was a tie 5,457

BOER

If he has been critical of Hillary's campain since Iowa, why is this news now?

CNN you disgust me. Obama has had a few more days of bad press. It looks like CNN is trying to smooth it over for Obama today.

WE SEE THROUGH YOUR BIAS CNN!!! I'VE STOPPED WATCHING YOUR REPORTING AND I'VE BEEN A LIFELONG VIEWER.

Why does everyone think 'Cling' and 'Bitter' are bad words. I'm bitter about Bush, this war, what its doing to our economy, the price of gas, and the jobs that are outsourced to other countries or to illegal immigrants. I've voted based on economic promises in the past and found that nothing ever seems to change. It makes me bitter everytime I think about it. So you know what I do, I cling to my core beliefs and vote based on issues I may have a better chance of affecting. Abortion is a religious issue. Gun ownership and how it is managed is a specific stongly held personal issue that I would much base my vote on then broad complicated economic problems that nobody can put their finger on or ever solve. The fact that Obama can speak to that means he does understand. If Hillary hasn't expirienced that, as she says, she isn't listening to us. Thank you Reich for ending your silence.

Oh, and as far as James Carville is concerned. Well, here's a nobody who ran one campaign in 1992 and is still riding that for all it's worth. He's just nothing but a has-been. His wife has done more than he has. He's funny, at times, and mostly just plain annoying. His comments hang around as much as a fart in a strong wind.

So many of their friends, former advisers, and ex-cabinet members overwhelmingly going against them speaks volumes about the Clintons! There must be so much more bad stuff that we don't know about them…

Just another rat in Obama's ship, you all going to be sorry if Obama gets the nomination, but I'm sure you allready have a job with him, (in Illinois). Clowns!!!!
HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT 2009!!!!!

Build it and they will come! One by one, they will come! Changes are great for the American Nation and people. We must evolve and embrace changes. We must be inclusive, this land is for all, a gift from our people to all of humanity, not just the chosen few and the entitled. Sincerely, Lake Hart, a Native American Writer.

Susan MO,

Who are you rooting for? You seem to be talking from all sides of your mouth…
Make it clear….Obama, Clinton or McSame?

This is great. Here is a man of sound convictions, and has a monumental record of knowing America. If he can see thru Hillarys campaing of slash and burn, the Super Delegate are seeing the same. Thank you Mr. Reich, on you considered opinion!

Thank you Rena.

I agree that it appears that many people are resentful because of the skin color..this is the part that makes me sick. It is so obvious that Obama is a better candidate than Hillary. But, no matter what, he won't get the credit from some Americans because of his skin color, but people are afraid to admit it. They are to cowardly to admit that truth.

Obama 08

NEWS FLASH for all the Obamaniacs who keep calling Hillary a liar. Obama is guilty of lying too. The only differnece is he has a teflon lie shield that surrounds him. People are blinded by whatever they like about him and they can't see him for what he really is. A politician. They are politicians, it's what they do. If you really believe he's that different you need to wake up. Too many pots and kettles calling each other black here.

He is such a sucker.

How come CNN always published and makeing it a headline everytime Obama receives support or recommendation. But if Hilalry receives recommendation and support like this, it is not a headline.

The media was and is always really unfair to Hillary.

Obama is the most irresponsibvle and most degrading candidate I've seen.

Obama mocked the Pennsylvannians and all American. Wake up America!!!! As demeaning as Obama so goes Wright and Rezco.

These supprters doe not think anymore that is same as every elections since Bush won the white house. I think this is happenning again. Shame on you.

That those who have worked more closely with the Clintons are the ones that are endorsing Obama tells a lot about Obama's preparadeness, capability and electability, for the office of the President of the United States against Hilary's

How is it that Hillary lied to the American people about being shot at.
Listen to how vivid her stories were of it. It wasn't a mistake it was a complete fabrication.

The republicans will trot out Mccains war hero pictures and videos and say:
"The CLINTONS lie about being shot at to impress you, I don,t have to lie about it." It is an insult to every American who has ever been and today is in "Harms Way" for her to lie about it for political gain.

She owes the country and every dead soldier an apology and the true explanation of why she did it. Of course she does not have that kind of courage. Does She?
Why isn't the liberal media more outraged?

one has to think…Why is it that some of the people who worked directly with, and know the Clinton's the best are jumping ship? You can maybe call one or two a traitor or opportunist, but there has been a steady stream of former Clinton democrats that have supported Obama.

I'm not sayin….I'm just sayin.

I'm an Obama supporter, but I will ABSOLUTELY vote for Clinton if she were to eek out the nomination. A vote for McCain is a vote against your own self interests as Americans. Though admirable in his service to this country, why is no one calling him on pandering the the conservative agenda as he decided to run for president? I used to to like the guy, he just seems quite disingenuous to me.

cry me a river……

Clintonaddicts need to wake up from their cold sweats. Hillary is an addiction that leads to destruction. Its sad that out of all the great women in our country the best we could do for a real legit shot, was Billary?
& to Bill, shame on you for calling any one young or old, who does not VOTE for your wife that you betrayed, dumb or not smart!!!!!!

Obama has won us over! “Whether we’re from red states or blue states, we feel in our gut the lack of honesty, rigor, and common sense in our policy debates, and dislike what appears to be a continuous menu of false or cramped choices.” (Men, Women, Young, Old, rich, poor, Latinos, Blacks & Whites, Asians & Native Americans, Straight, Gay, Democrats, Republicans and Independents) Hence-“we sense-correctly-that the nation’s most significant challenges are being ignored, and that if we don’t change course SOON, we may be the first generation in a very longtime that leaves behind a weaker and more fractures America than the one we inherited.”- Barack Obama

Stop your banter Susan, Its time you Clintonistas to join the Wining Campaign! say it with loud Susan (YES WE CAN). And tell some of your friends to knock that dirt off your shoulder too.

Obama Baby 08

My, my. I always thought there was one Judas, and one Judas only

you guys crying about this guy going for obama wake up and smell the roses. you guy dont rember the clintons and how they put nafta on us. thats one of the reasons penn. ,mich,ohio.,ind., ill. have lost jobs. she is two face ,she tells you what you want to hear an does something else.

For all those Hillary supporters out there… This is the guy whose economic policies produced the prosperity of the Clinton years that Hillary is now taking credit for. If he is backing Obama, Hillary has no more basis to claim she is better. Her "experience" and "economic acumen" have just jumped ship… Maybe she can cackle a little louder now ???

The more the media and Obama supporters push Obama down our throats, the more us Clinton supporters are willing to vote for McCain in the fall. Remember Obamabots, Obama only has half of the support of the democratic party. The other half is going to Clinton. If she does not get the nomination, then we will show you exactly how we feel about your Obama.

What is it, exactly, that makes the Clinton camp and supporters cling to the belief that the nomination is her God-given right, given that Obama has won the popular vote, more states and more delegates, more people view him as trustworthy, and he is ahead in the polls?

The honesty, clarity, intelligence, focus and eloquence Obama brings to this election is refreshing. It is in stark contrast to the games that Hillary plays. Some of our best former political leaders are those with some of the least formal "Washington experience", and some of the most disasterous administrations have significant experience. Washington experience does not translate into a good presidency.

Go Obama!

People use traitor as if he's endorsing a Republican, lol. When Clinton finally does drop out I hope all her supports can regain some perspective.

This endorsement was pretty harsh. He noted specific policy issues that he thinks Obama has a better case around. That's something most endorsers haven't been doing.

I thought America is a free country. Are HRC supporters saying "you must vote for the wife because you worked with Bill" I don't get it. I like Bill Clinton, but I'm votting Obama. This is the kind of mentality that's turning people off. I respect Reich for his choice and making that choice based on who has the better policy for the nation. I, like Reich, think the Office is much bigger than friendship.

Better for Hillary to remember all the judas in her party. It's funny how loyalty doesn't belong to democrats, which is why they will keep on loosing, Imagine why would he think Obama is better after wed. debate is a mystery unless Sorros has made him an offer he coudn't refuse, that's very possible. The 90's were the best years in the history of the USA why would you turn your back on the Clintons. United we stand belongs to republicans and divided we fall belongs to the dems. that's why they are bound to loose. Time for a third party just to weed out the hipocrites. or loose with Obama and his nutty supporters.

Good!!! OBAMA 08′, NO MORE CLINTONS!!!!

Barack Obama has the strength of characrter and ideas to make an excellent president. Hillary Clinton has big name recognition thanks to her husband. I don't think that gives her any sort of experience or edge on anyone running, much less someone who is intelligent, thoughtful, and caring.
If all people can find to fault the man with is that some of the people in his live have made mistakes, then he is hardly an elitist. Or, if so, than aren't we all? I have members in my own family I am not proud of and wouldn't want to be held responsible for some of their decisions. Still, I would not disown or stop caring for them, or trying to work together with them to get something good accomplished.

I have noticed most people that are NOT for Obama denote his RACE! WOW, America wake up to the inter demons, we all know there are people that use race as there monitor for every facet of their life, this is still very, very SAD. Vote on the issues I have lost my job because of downsizing If he can help with NEW ideas God help him. I see why the secret service gave him security from DAY ONE!

HRC is done, put a stake in her. Good BYE Barack is the man, with the plan. And 100 millon people can't be wrong. Down with Bush, step aside HRC. Lets roll over McBush JR. Obama 08

known the Clintons since "college"…

man….. that's "GOTTA" HURT !!!!!!!

I think Hillary will make a great state leader. Hillary for Governor of New York.

This man is in deep trouble; they will call him a traitor. The Clintons think anybody who served in Bill's administration owes them, there are several superdelegates who are struggling with their conscience. They know the right candidate is Obama but for some reason are struggling to come out.

Now she is making news of Obama's complaint about the lines of questioning during Wednesday's debate. Who was the first to complain about debate questions? Now she understands that if you want to go to the White House you have to face tougher questions at a debate. What a hypocricy! Everybody knows Barack Obama was not complaining of "tougher questions" as Hillary did some few weeks ago; the complain is about the relevance of those question to the american people.

PEOPLE OF PA, if you take time to listen to OBAMA u'll know he's the best person for the job, CLINTON isn't bad either but she didn;t show me that she can take decisions when the day will come, we need to be united as americans, plz let's end these issues and vote for OBAMA.

we can if we listen

I could respect what Reich did were it not for the timing. Had he waited until the primaries were over I could accept that he was simply following his conscience. But to do it now when it hurts Hillary the most makes him in my eyes a Judas.

Hmmmmm, I don't have the slightest idea who this guy is.

Everyone in the policitic arena is a longtime friend of the former president. Who cares.

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

To… Mike in Texas

Obama has done the walk in a more direct and personal area. Look back at what he did for a small community in Chicago which indeed made Chicago thrive even more.. There are alot you can find and see if you do the research. Come on over and visit the obama website. Check out the life and such he has done and really get to know the Obama family before you judge them.. We supporters may be harsh at times but the same can be said for many of the Clinton supporters.

Obama 08

The clintons can't understand why people are not laying a red carpet for them all the way from New York to white house.
What is wrong with these people,,, they need to get real. And if Hillary doesn't watch it, she may lose Bills vote. lol

Are you Obama people saying that you are not loyal to anyone? My goodness, what will Barrack do when you all desert him for McCain because he is not ahead in the polls at the general?

WE NEED TO UNITE AS DEMOCRATS, WE CAN'T AFFORD TO HAVE MCCAIN WIN BECAUSE OUR FAVORED CANDIDATE DIDN'T GET THE NOMINATION. IF YOU LOOK AT HILLARY/BARACK POLICIES, YOU WILL SEE THEY ARE EXACTLY THE SAME

To Susan:

The only way in which it may not matter is that Obama almost has the nomination sewed up as it is. And if you are really making your decision based on the 'spin room' rather than researching further into the matter than it doesn't sound like you are open- minded to find out the truth to begin with.

Also, the majority of people understand that what Obama said is true and does not reflect on his belief that these small towns are also resilient and ready for hope and change as much as the rest of us,

Karen in Cape Cod-

So what you're saying is that Hillary Clinton has rats on her ship?

Get real, he is not & has not been afriend to the Clinton's for years. He left the Clinton administration & wrote a book blasting the Clinton's. When he says "my friend" in regards to either Clinton, he is doing the truth a great disservice. You are doing the same even referring to him as a Clinton friend. He's been sucking up to Obama for some time now.
Just another Judas in the pack

First of all jt, you are an idiot. Get some spelling and grammar lessons.

It speaks volumes for the distrust the Clintons have created. Friends and former advisors, cabinet members, you name it…they don't support the lies anymore. Time for Hillary to go away.

I really hope that the Clinton sees which kind of mess she did with the party. Now, she put Obama in a terrible position with her unusful questions and she put herself also in a very bad situation. First: I have never heard anyone who lived their religion for a Pastor, Priest or whatever… I need to understand…. this pastor made horrible comments, but if he did something criminal wasn't arrested? so…Obama has to pay for the stupidity of the Pastor….I don't get it….so all Catholics who didn't leave the church after the sex scandal had to be punished.?..why Americans don't send like Napoleaon this Pastor to Sant"elena ? ahahahah
I understand if the supporter change vote or endorsment….when it is too much is too much.

He has an obligation to choose who he believes is the best Candidate, and he made his choice…so respect his decision.

2 A.
"Here's something else that's exciting, John Edwards was wearing an Obama pin last night on the Colbert report!"

THE LINK?!!

This endorsement, together with NUNN's and BOREN's is a consequence of the outrageous attitude of HILLARY, in complicity with
the ABC moderators, during Tuesday's debate. This was the last straw for made such personalities abandon their intention to
THIS WAS THE LAST STRW FOR MADE SUCH PERSONALITIES TO SKIP THEIR INTENTION TO STAY NEUTRAL, AND A SLEW OF SUPERDELEGATES WILL FOLLOW.

Anyway, Hillary has no more chances with superdelegates after she
acknowledged that OBAMA is electable !!

TOM BOER

Now wait, Susan of MO-

First you say:

This does not matter.

"Obama has already hurt himself with his critical remarks to the people of Pennsylvania.

And, he does not want anymore debates.

He lost our vote a long time ago for being so critical.

It does not matter anymore who endorses him

Now Strongely for Hillary Clinton."

Then you say:

"Coming from Someone who 'KNOW" them.
CLINTON your are done

OBAMA 08."

Does this mean that you are jumping the Clintonmachine and boarding the Obama Train…? Welcome Aboard, girlfriend!!!!!!!!!

Welcome! I see Sam Nunn and David Boren also came out in support of Sen. Obama.

C'mon Sen. Clinton… the fat lady has been singing and singing and singing and… she's getting REALLY tired.

The die is cast, the nominee is OBAMA, HIP HIP HIP………

Men of goodwill are joining the Obama train. Welcome on board Reich.

It's more likely John Edwards was wearing a breast cancer pin last night in support of his wife - who by the way, said Hillary's healthcare plan was far superior to Obama's and nearly identical to that which Edwards had proposed. Quit dreaming and look at substance - GO HILLARY!!!

tes, and obama is the one that talks the talk, so why back him?

Where's Patty from, … CA, NY, FL.. and everywhere else she claims shes from.. After the hatchet job on Wednesday night, I am surprised there aren't more. Unless they are waiting to slowly trickle out all weekend up to the primary here in PA..

GO OBAMA!!

ALL ABOARD! ALL ABOARD! ALL BOARD!
TRAIN LEAVING THE STATON LAST CALL FOR HILLARY SUPPORTER TO JUMP ON
OBAMA ALL THE WAY

So Robert had heard something NO ONE ELSE has heard. It would be nice that the ELETISTS let us in on the plan.

Explain to me how Clinton friends and colleagues see something to make them support her opponent, but Clinton supporters seem blind as a bat and easily duped?

Obama '08

Finally! A voice of reason! Thank you, Reich, for coming forth to support the candidate you think will best serve the country over the one who is a friend. If only all Americans could look at the facts without bias, we just might be able to move forward with the election process!

TO SANDY - THEN HILLARY MUST BE WORTH A LOT!!!!
THANKS FOR THE PLUG!!!!!

GO HILLARY!

This shows the Clinton's aren't running the show as they wish they could.

Thank you to those who disengage that power machine.

Buh bye Hillary.

Don't be BITTER Hillary lovers, if people WHO KNOW HER are jumping ship…

It's not too late to back the FUTURE of the Democratic party, Barack Obama!

Geez…how much money are these schmucks being paid to try and drive out the best candidate — Hillary? Obama is a ticking time bomb of unknowns, and the slanted media coverage is all too happy to please their right-wing ownership by shoving him down everyone's throats.

This is not a threat, it is a fact. I WILL NOT VOTE FOR OBAMA NO WAY NO HOW. I will write Hillary in if she is not the nominee. I'm sick of a bunch of racists and misogynists trying to push this empty suit. Excuse my bitter @$$ now…I'm going home to cling to my guns, religion and antipathy.

The most important thing is to end the Bush era and policies. Clinton people unite behind our nominee as I am sure he would if she won the nomination. It was hers to win and her campaign's arrogance lost her a 30 point national lead. It is not her time. The first woman president will be an inspirational leader who doesn't have a husband who was perceived as an advantage who turned out to be an albatros.

As an Independent who voted Republican the last two elections…and third party candidate for multiple local elections….I used to hear the rhetoric from the Democrats…and wonder what type of punch they were drinking from.

No matter the endorsement, no matter the well thought out and articulated argument, no matter the facts……………………………………………………………Clinton Fanatics are the worst and most insatiable. I will personally vote for any Democrat that wins the nomination this year.

I prefer Obama, but I can vote for Hilary. I can't vote for a Republican candidate beating the war drum on Iran already, who admits ignorance on the Economy, and then suggests that it has shown great growth over the last 7 1/2 years.

But you friggen Clinton Fanatics are making it really hard for me to take your party at all seriously.

Don't need them? Where did I hear that before? Oh! Now I remember. Hillary telling Bill to screw them when talking about southern white voters who did not sit on command. You don't need them. Bring back any memories? Seems to be the phrase of the Clinton followers as well. I am a typical white baby boomer who is leanning more and more towards Obama.

Hillary supporters are hilarious. "He's just jumping on the bandwagon now because Obama has taken the lead and he is angling for a cabinet post!! Besides, he basically endorsed him a year ago so this isn't really news!!"

Anything contradictory there??

Obama is a good man, person, and will be fair to all people. I am so proud of him. God Bless Obama.

SURE MR. REICH, AND WHEN OBAMA IS DONE WITH YOU TOO, HE WILL WAVE YOU SOMETHING TOO……..BUT IT WON'T BE THE AMERICAN FLAG………..IT WILL BE HIS MIDDLE FINGER!

As a McCain supporter - this is amusing. Those that support HRC say Reichis a judas and that Obama is a liar. Those that support Obama - welcome him with open arms. Says something about the two campaigns.

BTW - while all of the HRC crew is throwing stones - note this - just because the Paul vs. Clinton case doesn't come up until after the next set of primaries - it will be more than fodder for McCain to sink your political machine in the Fall…..that is….if you manage to STEAL the nomination from Obama. Paul vs. Clinton - it is twisted and doesn't look good for the Clintons.
Sorry - CNN - know you don't want to investigate the Paul vs. Clinton case until after you have won HRC the nomination. Sorry for jumping the gun.

Mc Cain 08

More men of goodwill are waiting to join the Obama express train.Welcom on board Reich.

This is what I'm talking about. We already knew Reich was an Obama supporter. This Clinton supporter will not vote for Obama in November if Hillary is Not on the ticket. The way Hillary has been portrayed in the media and all over the internet, will doom Mr. Obama. I guarentee that.

.
Obama is phony, wake up American.
GO HILLARY!!!

Ouch!!!!

The fat lady keeps singing but Bill and Hill must be deaf.

LOL

Traitor? Why, because after thoughtful and careful deliberation he felt that Obama was a better choice. That's treasonous? Are those Hillary supports who are spouting this nonsense REALLY that dense? I understand your feelings being hurt, but come on…try to cut back on your hateful hyperbole. It isn't going to help your candidate to behave like a spoiled child everytime someone from BILL Clinton's administration backs Obama.

It's good to see so many democrats finally seeing the Clintons for what they are… The Republicans have known this for 15 years… a little slow coming around but glad to see you've done it.

Down with the Royal Family!

Robert Reich is highly respected.

Hillary supporters

Like Bill Richardson,
This is somebody who knew Hillary for decades

GET A CLUE !!!!

These are people that know Senator Clinton and her Husband better than 99% of us that are leaving comments on all the news websites. This has to tell you something if they are not supporting Senator Clinton.

I trust the judgement of these folks and they are people that have been involved in politics for awhile now. They know something that we don't know.

OBAMA 08

How creepy is it that the 2008 Clinton supporters are beginning to sound more and more like the 2004 Bush supporters.

Can "Sarajane from PA" and other Hillary supporters honestly tell me how any American would want to return an "Impeached Family and President" back to the White House?

I have and will always be a great admirer of the Clintons. But I love my nation above all that the Clintons would ever offer– good economy–?

Integrity + strong moral values –> Solutions that are blessed for a nation.

I do not think Hillary meets the above profile!

No, Reich isn't a traitor. These guys take this seriously, know the candidates better than we do, and support based on what they think is best for the country. It's time to wrap this thing up and they know it.

One more washed up politician bucking for a cabinet post job.

Did you hear that? Obama's solutions for social security strike him as more sensible. A lot of Clinton supporters charge that Obama doesn't offer solutions. He does. Check his website.

Obama, I have been aboard your train even before your announced that you were running for president! And I love ya, "Yes, we can"!
Yalivee

I remember this guy on the Colbert Report when asked around Easter that he'd prefer the chocolate bunny over the vanilla chick. I'm pretty sure that was a prelude to this.

thank you Sandy you are correct about the right and also about Clinton attacks on Obama. They do so becuase they fear him, they know that the people are behind him and they also know this is a good man, they know he is not doing this for personal reasons but for the people,
clinton, rush limbaugh, mccain, and ann coulter, lou dobbs, hendy and the rest of individuals who make a living of teaching hate , intolerance, lies, manipulation, division and all the human toxic stuff, are but that toxic…and our country and our children, us and our future deserve a chance and deserve better than what we have been receiving……………no more ..time has come for a big turn and good start, even if it is difficult…………….. yes we the american people we all can, and we will overcome and have a good president…………

Obama 08

Here you have a man who knows the Clintons and choose Senator Obama. Now, since we have people who actually know trhe Clintons but choose Senator OBAMA there is something to be said….

Please, don't let Senator Clinton scare tactic hurt America..

We need true change.

OBAMA 08

Susan/MO, Karen in Cape Cod and Anne Marie/NYC now who's sounding "BITTER"??!!!!!

Hillary is Done!!

I't's still time to get on the TRAINE!!!!

I have a great amount of respect for Mr. Reich and while I was already an Obama supporter I hope more individuals like him speak up so this can end and we can focus on exposing John McCain for what he really is.

"His plans for reforming Social Security and health care have a better chance of succeeding," Reich continued. "His approaches to the housing crisis and the failures of our financial markets are sounder than hers. His ideas for improving our public schools and confronting the problems of poverty and inequality are more coherent and compelling. He has put forward the more enlightened foreign policy and the more thoughtful plan for controlling global warming

These are people who know because they have spent time talking to Obama and have heard his ideas which is something no one is doing in this campaign becasue we are all busy attacking each other. I also read today in Newsweek that Obama has the best defense plan, he was telling the Senate before the election that the United States was attacking the wrong Country and that the terrorist were in Pakistan and Afganistan but they wouldn't listen to a Jr Senator. Please people open yoru ears and get the tabloid bull crap that the Clinton camp has been slinging out of you minds before it's too late. She has poisoned this campaign and McSame will be in the Whitehouse cleaning his gun getting ready for war because he has alzheimers and can remember who were fighting.

YES WE CAN!

Time for Hillary to get out of the way.

White women for Obama!!!

Great news; and two other superdelegates also have decided for Obama today. Logical! in a few months we will all realize that there was no Bittergate, only a SNIPERGATE

Put on your seat belts, we will be hearing another "Judas" & traitor call from the Clinton's camp very soon.

Seriously how delusional are some of you Hillary supporters?

Hillary should start a third party. The other two is bought,and paid for.

———–

Are you seriously saying that Hillary is not bought and paid for? That has to be the funniest/dumbest thing I've read in a long time.

Why is it that Clinton supporters think that every former friend that is endorsing Obama is only doing so because there must be some kind of promise of a Cabinet position?

If these people are friends of the Clintons already, wouldn't they be MORE likely to get a Cabinet position from her, therefore being more to their interest to endorse her?

It just doesn't make sense. These people are truly voting their conscience. And as insiders, I take their endorsement very seriously.

Yep! All Hillary does is lie, lie, and lie. Ya'll are so crazy you keep saying all he does is talk and give good speeches. Well isn’t' that what all of them are doing right now? Hillary is talking and lying her way threw this race; McCain is going around telling his life history. Soooooooo what is your point. At least Obama is talking, inspiring, giving people hope while giving the best foreign policy to ever hit the white house.

Why don't you guys really admit the truth this is about this man color? It is not about where he came from, what you don't know about him, you can't trust him, or his experience. You just don't like the idea he doesn't have the right color; if this was a white man with Obama's profile Hillary would have been out of this race. Bottom line you rather spite your face and vote for a woman who happens to be white than to vote for a black man who has everything we need in him to be a great president. It's even sadder that we have resulted to this type of behavior with the state our country is in; obviously America is not hurting to bad financially or care about our soldiers to vote McCain in just because you don't want a black man in. Remember he and Hillary policies are practically the same. So, what makes them so different, I'll say it again he is black. It's really sad!!!!!!!!!

Loyalty? Yes, he's being loyal to his country and the American people by supporting change.

This man's opinion means nothing, Hillary introduced all those issues he sites long before any of them did. This is yet ANOTHER example of a former Clinton appointee(Richardson) and now Reich(shorty) who cashed in on Clinton and now THINK they are going to cash in on Obama. I would'nt buy water from these two guys if I was in the middle of the desert.

Hillary Supporters its time to face facts! Unless Hillary makes some sort of back door deal at the convention, which I'm sure shes trying to do…there is no way she can win I mean steal the nomination. I am happy the congential liar is out! Do you really want Emperor and Empress Clinton running this country for the next fifty years?

I think it's compelling that two of Bill Clinton's former Cabinet have endorsed Obama.

Barack Obama is by far the best candidate we have going. I am very conservative. I love my Republican party but however I want to see the United States of America strong and on top again. The best person to do that is BARACK OBAMA. OBAMA '08

Totally irrelevant! He is not well known nationally at all. He isn't even a super-delegate.

The Clintons got steamboat willie to crack the whip, so if you carry the cross differently then Hillary; you'll leave with scars on your back. As if people need to know she'll bomb Tehran and leave it in cinders beacuse some nut case over there speaks like a rabit sports fan against his rival. She proves she has no diplomacy skills, and when she hears the annual fireworks on the fourth of July, she'll blow up the planet trying to dodge the sparklers.

Let's see - I want to make sure I understand this.

He has more states, but her's are more important.
He has more newspaper endorsements, but that doesn't matter.
Since Super Tuesday, he has netted 70% of the superdelegates, but they don't count.
A number of former Clinton Administration officials have made the couragous move to support Obama, but they are simply disloyal.
He has more voters, volunteers, and donors, but they are all simply misguided.

Perhaps it's time for all the Obama doubters to take a fresh look. Ignore the distractions - focus on the leader and his platform. There's room for all of you on the Obama Express - YES THERE IS!!!!!!!

This is a major endoresement, Reich is not a politician nor super delegate and has nothing to gain politically, he was one of the masterminds of the Clinton admin…he is well respected by both parties and has one of the foremost econonic minds in the country. I think he and fellows such as David Gergen are growing increasingly impatient with the Clinton's sideshow….when will Bill just shut up already, and for God sakes, stop pimping Chelsea out!!! She is painfully uncomfortable out there and I feel for her….Some MOM!

This endorsement should prove that Obama is a deep thinker and smart and intellectual in the right way. I'll bet Hillary and Bill are really mad over this.

Thank you Mr. Reich for making the right choice!

Do the mindless Hillary supporters ever stop and wonder why those, who know her best (Reich, Richardson) will NOT support her?
Wake up. Hillary is over. Obama will drag the Dems down.
You tried.

Its only going to get worse!! The Dems will eventually destroy each other and Mc Cain will win!!! Mc Cain '08
Sorry Dems, but this is a brokered nomination no matter what way its spun. Brokered nominations ALWAYS FAIL. Try again in 2012.

Since thing such as the price of gas, getting tough on oil companies, raising the standards of fuel economy, etc. I decided to do a little research.

What cars do the candidates drive? Fortunately, all three get credit for driving American makes. What strikes me as a little surprising is that out of the three, Obama (who you could say is the most liberal out of the bunch) drives the biggest car with the biggest engine and with the worst fuel milage.

Obama - Chrysler 300c V8 (fuel economy 15/23)
Clinton - Mercury Mariner Hybrid (fuel economy 34/30)
McCain - Cadillac CTS V6 (fuel economy 16/25)

Thought that was interesting.

Clintons are too dishoest to go back to the White House

Here's something else that's exciting, John Edwards was wearing an Obama pin last night on the Colbert report!

Great News !

Long time friends of the Clinton's know what is REAL and I am so glad they are making the right choice to back the best candidate to effect real change for the American people in Washington.

I know there are more and hope they will do the same.

It's time for REAL change in Washington, it's tiem for Barack Obama for president !

These so called moderators are as biased as their network. Why the new twist to old news. It implies a frindship? He supported Obama way back, why the re-hash?

of course it matters! Robert Reich, Bill Richardson, Sam Nunn. These are some of the brightest minds in our country who recognize the power of a unified country. Elitist? Dont you think it is a good thing for the President to be smarter than average Joe (unlike the last 8 years). BTW don't forget their is only one person in this country powerful enought to unite the Republican party and that is Hillary herself. They want her to win the primary because they will come out of the wood work to defeat her.

This guy has known Hillary Clinton since Obama was in first grade. He served under Bill Clinton and his disillusionment with her is significant because it shows that she's gone beyond the point which loyal friends can tolerate keeping quiet.

I think Obama has got endorsements from some of the most educated and well informed politicians to date.This says a lot about how efficient Obama will be when he is president.

What policies? Everything I've heard from Obama is very vague, always referring back to "change" and "changing the way Washington works", but anything even slightly specific seems to echo Hillary's ideas and then watered down so they are non-committal. Isn't that the way Washington works?

FYI :- I've never met anybody who wanted to support a looser or a lier in my over 40 years of age, keep it coming people coz we're closing this game sortly………. try again in 2012 Hilary and hopefully u will be too old since you cannot remember a thing now at 60, 60 + 4 = 64

I admit he is absolutely right when he said
"Although Hillary Clinton has offered solid and sensible policy proposals, Obama's strike me as even more so," Reich wrote on his blog. He served as the Secretary of Labor from 1993-1997 and is currently a professor at Brandeis University.
"His plans for reforming Social Security and health care have a better chance of succeeding," Reich continued. "His approaches to the housing crisis and the failures of our financial markets are sounder than hers. His ideas for improving our public schools and confronting the problems of poverty and inequality are more coherent and compelling. He has put forward the more enlightened foreign policy and the more thoughtful plan for controlling global warming."

Which Clinton is Running for Office?

Has anyone noticed that today Bill Clinton is campaigning in 6 places today, while Hillary is doing so in 2 places. And on Saturday Bill Clinton is campaigning in 4 places and Hillary in 2. Obama is campainging in 3 places on Friday and 5 places on Saturday, and Michelle is campaigning on Friday? The schedule is on the ABC Website. Point is, which Clinton is really running? And, will it be the same in the White House regarding Trade policy, etc.?? These questions need to be raised.

Could it be that former Clinton administrators are worring about this?

How could anyone back Obama;constantly twists words to meet his own selfish motives.I guess that he backs Obama's Minister who preaches God Dam America in his sermons.Hillary is more honest than either of them.

To Susan, (first blog)
THIS DOES MATTER. More and more are jumping on the bus with Obama, because they see how Hillary is tearing down the Democratic party! How dare you say Obama is critical? That is so opposite! This man has only tried to defend himself against the lies of Hillary's dirty campaign! Give me a break! Her campaign is a waste of time at this point….Goodbye Hillary! And thank you to Reich!

Yes we can! Obama 08

I just don't understand why the Clintons feel that everyone that worked under their cabinet should endorse them. Those who wish to endorese him have the right to do so. Clinton supporters are so wrapped around thier own world. GET OVER IT.
Obama 08

Now thats making a statement…. Hope hes not harshly judged as Richardson was… We welcome your support Reich and thank you for making a solid and sound decision.

Obama 08

Anybody can turn out policies that sound good, but without the experience to carry them out it doesn't mean much. And that sums up Obama — an untested man who just sounds good!
