I'm getting tired of these "super" delegates whining about not being able to make a choice. The American public has not "been going back and forth" about their support; ever since Sen. Obama took the lead in popular vote and total delegates, he's held it. He also leads in states won, by the way, with an insurmountable majority. The fact that the margin by which he's ahead wavers by a few points every election does NOT indicate a shift in the American public.

Another perspective I haven't seen yet; the demographic split in supporters sounds a lot like the split between Rep & Dem votes in the last presidential election; the Dems won the young, urban votes while the Reps won the older, rural votes. Look at which group Sen. Clinton is leading in; if she wins, the next presidential election will be a repeat of the last. Choosing between Sens. McCain and Clinton is like choosing between McDonalds and Burger King. Same burger, different special sauce, and both are bad for your health.

Let's be pragmatic: Ignorance is the enemy. People with poor or little education vote for Hillary. Why? They are afraid - of Obama's middle name, of his color, of his "inexperience," of his pastor, of what he doesn't wear, among other terrifying items. What greater argument can be made for better education than what we are experiencing in this campaign. Brings to mind elections in banana republics, Eastern Europe, and Africa where fear is always on the ballot.

Good lord how can some numnuts still be undecided. It's people like this who are really to blame for this mess.

Let's make some more non-news, while at the same time, continue to mis-report on, and exagerate Clinton's 'victories'. Also, let's make it seem as though Obama is somehow losing and is unelectable. The American people are obviously so stupid that they'll vote for whomever we convince them to. Morons.

Obama can win NC in the general election. He was tied with Mccain in a recent poll. NC-superdelegates should all endorse Obama. You can see in another article here, that GOP-NC is releasing a stupid attack ad against Obama, that is because they fear a Obama victory, because NC could actually become a democrat state.
Hillary doesnt stand a chance in NC against Mccain. NC-supers should endorse Obama and stand behind him, that way democrats have an even bigger chance to take the state in the general election.

proud white,65 year old lady
we love obama ansd he will win so hop on board

Let's hope Obama doesn't have to face McCain with scars. He is the only one capable of winning the Democratic battle without a lot of controversy. They need to settle Florida and Michigan though but Clinton has no way tp catch Obama in delegates and a remote change to catch Obama in the popular vote even if Florida is included. I just don't see why democrats supporting Clinton don't seem to see that, it's not like their is a big difference between their plans for America. Unless they are Clintonians first before Democratic I just don't get it.

I will not vote for Obama. I am a young black woman (dem) who has not and will not support him. I believe he's the same as the rest of the politicians and the fact that he continues to act and speak as if he isn't is exactly what draws me away from him.
With Hillary, we know what we're getting good or bad. As she has said before, everyone has been through her baggage so we know what we're signing up for. It's an unknown with Obama. After 8 years of Bush I'm not ready for an unknown. We can't take that right now. Too many things concerning his past are supposed to be considered "trivial" when they wouldn't be "trivial" if it were anyone else's past. There's always an excuse, a reason, a speech behind who he knew, what he did, or what he didn't do and that's it. It's glossed over like no big deal.

I also want to know why it's ok for superdelegates in states Hillary has won to change over to Obama. John Lewis here in Atlanta, was PRAISED for switching to Obama b/c his precint supported Obama. He was supposed to do what his people want. So why now is the Gov of Oklahoma endorsing Obama when Hillary won the state? Why did Richardson endorse Obama when Hillary won NM? There's another state where the same thing happened, I think Cali as a matter of fact, where she won HUGE. I'm finding the double standard insane and disappointing as a young black woman who is a part of the future.....Just why can't Obama close the deal and put her away, spending like he is? These are some examples of reasons why. He's not convincing all people of the under 30 gen.

Fence sitters like this guy are allowing this party to splinter and fracture beyond repair. The longer it goes, the less chance of winning.
He could just do the math. Obama's lead is insurmountable unless you want to push the plunger on the Party.

Every person in every state should have their vote counted. Keep the supperdelegates and Howard Dean out of this race until every vote is counted. What's wrong with letting the race go on until June? If your state was at the end of the elction process, I'm sure you would want to vote. I know I would. Let's just see what comes of all of this since a lot is riding this election.

These Supers had better consider more than the Republicans of their state in making their dicidion ALL the MILLIONS that have voted for Obama!

His numbers speak for themselves!! While Hillary's does not, remeber there were a lot of Republicans slipping over to vote for Hillary because they want Hillary to win, they know they can BEAT HEAT DOWN! With all of the negatives that have been done by her and her husband. Just the things that are on you tube alone will crush her. They don't have much of anything on Obama, now they want to use who he knows against him, take out of context his words while giving voice to the needs of the very people that will turn and bite him, these are the very ones that bigots hope to incite against him. they believe them to be uneducated bigots with weak minds that they can pursaude as they will. THe worst thing about this is there are plenty of them, but they fail to understand most people of today are NOT, we on the other hand have progressed and want to understand each other's differences, we do not want to be forced to stay in HATE!!

The super delegates are a bunch of spineless men and women who only panders. There is no reason why they have to wait until the convention or June 3rd. This is not about them I voted for the candidate that I felt would be the right choice, and if they think they can just march in and say this is the most electable person screw them all and the party.

The media and the candidates seem too forget all the states are important not just NY, TX, CAL, PA, Fla or MI. I find it disingenious on any candidate and the media to think that TN, ARK or any other state with less delegates unimportant. If Al Gore had won a small state such as TN. he would have been the next president and guess what Fla. would have been less important. To cherry picks states too win is wrong. And candidates should be held accountable by the voters.

I just don't get where the koolaid brigade thinks that NObama brings America hope and a brighter future! He's a racist, elitist, idiot! Change! For crying out loud – do you goofy dems think he can "change" things single-handedly? If so, the dems are more stupid that I previously thought. He is one person, pandering to you bubble-gum chewers!

Obama does not bring a bright future to America. Look at his radical friends; AYERS/WRIGHT/FARAKHAN/SINCLAIR, etc...

America would be a third world country within a year under Obama.

Hillary or McCain '08!!!!! NEVER OBAMA!!!!

To all the undecided superdelegates, don't be afraid when the time comes to vote for the stronger candidate to run against McCain, Hillary. A lot of superdelegates that have endorsed Obama have gone against the will of their state ex. Kerry, Richardson, Kennedy to name a few. So all this crap of being for the will of the people is just that.........CRAP! We need a candidate with abackbone and it surely is not Obama!

The Clinton Campaign Slogan should read Obama in 08' Clinton 12'

Barack Obama is trying to win the 2008 presidential election and “Billary Clinton” started out along the same path but is now trying to win the 2012 presidential election instead. The fact of the Matter is the Clinton camp knows that Billary has already lost the 2008 Primaries. Mathematically, financially and because she’s fast running out of states which haven’t held their primaries yet we can say geographically, she has already lost the 2008 primaries. The powers to be cannot give her the nomination without causing a split within the Democratic Party and or possibly a Civil War and she knows it . All she has left is to look forward to 2012, where it becomes problematic for the Clintons (Chelsea, Bill and Hillary) is she can’t come back in 2012 and run for president as a Democrat unless one of 2 things happens. The first is that after Obama wins the primaries, if he goes on to win the general election that would make it almost impossible for Billary Clintons to run in 2012 with a sitting Democratic president. Leaving only a remote possibility that Obama as president would have to be the worst president in the history of the United States. He has to be a worst president then Franklin H. Pierce the only sitting president to not have won his party’s nomination the following election year. Franklin H. Pierce coincidentally happens to be the great….great…great….great……great grandfather of the current president George W. Bush, meaning Obama would have to be worst then a legacy of ineptness to give Billary Clintons a chance. As most people know Barack Obama is a highly intelligent Columbia Graduate and a Harvard educated individual The second and more plausible scenario becomes/is what they (the Clintons) are trying to do now. The “he’s not electable” argument forgetting the fact that if he’s not electable is because the Clintons made it so by are trying to make sure Barack Obama is bloodied up enough that he would loose the general election. If that were to happen it would give the Clintons another chance to come back in 2012 with Republican John McCain as president and say I told you I was the more electable one. That alone barring any catastrophic events or revelations from the many dealings of the Clintons past, present and future would make her the de facto Democratic Candidate in 2012. You may be reading this right now wondering why they would go to such length to get back in the White House. To that question I give this answer………………because Billary Clintons feel she’s entitled to be the first Woman president of the United States and she would do anything to make that dream come through. My guess is as soon as Chelsea Clinton turns 35 she too would be running for president, after all she too was in the White House during Bill Clinton’s presidency.

Think whether you want to support a person who's

Husband – brough shame to white house

Husband -lobbied for Dubai in port deal

Husband – promoted NAFTA

Husband- supports CAFTA

Husband -killed her health care plan

husband – praised farrakkhan

husband- invited pastor wright

husband- get money for rhetoric- delivering speeches for foreign countries who then donate to his library

Husband-gave most favored nation state to china without human rights

the candidate did not denouce any off those

And the person

Who took money from terrorists groups -LTTE and islamic group in USA

says all terrorists are not terrorists

Supported PLO

deffendent for Peter Paul case ib california

as a family write off charity from taxes given to their library
OR

a person
Who 's

pastor- Wright said unacceptable things- but denounced by the candidate

neighbor- RETZCO being the neighbor/ raised fund for the candidate

happen to know- ayers

Give charity to the church not for his charitable causes

This guy is a great example of why we have super-delegates to begin with.

It's clear that he doesn't have much interest in either Obama or Clinton as individuals. He's looking at the November results for the party as a whole and for his state in particular. He'll weigh that against the results in his state's primary.

We could do worse than to just let the 700 super-delegates make the choice, based on their reading of the entire primary season.

Obama is the best choice for America today. Hillary is a distant second, and the worst possible choice is John Mc Cain. If it was possible I will choose Reagan over McCain any day. This Country and the future is more important than color and gender.

I believe this super-delegate process will end poorly for the Democratic party. Half the party will not be happy.

I also think half of the unhappy half will just not show up at the polls. We cannot win that way.

I also believe the Democrat’s system will change four years from now and we will eliminate this caucus process. That also includes the super-delegates. It does seem a bit unfair allowing elected officials to choose, overriding the public vote. These are not citizens, they are elected officials representing citizens who make under the table deals all the time.

I can see more states paired up on the Super Tuesdays so so that we end this early on in the season. There have been too many debates, too many weeks of primaries stretched out and that is not fair to those who voted way back in the beginning. I can see no more than 90 days to pair down the states and come up with a winner.

The current process is not fair to those states on the end of the spectrum either.

And finally, John McCain is given a free ride for ever it seems. I think we need to be fighting this battle between parties not within a party at this point in time.

I'll make it easy for you pal. Switch parties and support McCain that way you won't waste your juice.

This guy is going to endorse Obama. It's too obvious. Obama 08!!

The truth hurts, and this superdelegate spoke the truth.

One thing is for SURE Obama won't General Election and all the endorsement he has gotten so far didn’t take him anywhere. Hillary is a very energized candidate and will withstand any thing thrown to her unlike Obama who is arrogant and thinks that he is untouchable and indivisible. Going to Harvard or Columbia doesn’t guarantee been a leader. He is not leader may be intellectual and smart based on the level his intelligence was measured for. But if you listen to Hillary, you can see and hear command, leadership, kindness, knowledgeable and one who cares for others.

Me looking and listening to Obama last night, he come across someone who says, whether you like it or not I have made, I careless about you. He is only winning black votes majority and other groups doesn’t trust him and he doesn’t answer any question clearly always has way.

One thing for the DNC to do is to nominate Hillary and White house is theirs. My friends who are supporter of Obama are switching over to Hillary and know that Obama can’t win General Election come November. If you guys would remember Al Gore and John Kerry won popular votes and electoral vote but never the ones that matters. Another thing that North Carolina people should put into consideration is Catholics’ put Bush in White House but last night 68% voted for Hillary.

Common' Sir! Please keep your eye on the prize. We need to WIN the White House and we'll need a fighter who can stand up to the Reps. From your years of experience, you know they have something special cooked up for Obama. Repubs. want Hillary out because they know they'll beat Obama in the Fall.

Hillary 08!

Sparring sounds good for boxers. Legitimate competition is great for many sports and good to develop skills. If the procedure is done responsibily issues could be defined even fine tunedJUST TO BE A BLOODY FIGHT FROM ANY CANDICATE IS A WASTE OF VALUABLE TIME AND ENERGY NEEDED FOR MORE IMPORTANT THINGS.

Dude, seriously? Having difficulty voting foe a black man?

That's right, I said it.

I like him, he's honest, and he knows that Obama will be the likely nominee, Clinton will be the vice president, I believe they will eventually join on the same ticket.

He is such a Hillary supporter!

Hillary is not killing the party............it's you with all your hatefulness. Your lucky you don't land in court with what you have been saying. Where you there, do you know the true facts, or are you following the lead of being a big liar like Obama! Get real or get lost!

Obama: brings America hope and a brighter future. In general, young and educated, older and more educated, and progressive minded people will embrace Obama. I voted for the Clinton's in the past, but this is about the future. If this was a race between Colin and Hillary, I will vote for the democratic candidate without considering gender or color. I voted for Charlie Crist, and I am a registered democrat. Read his biography. Gov. Tanner's endorsement is consistent with the popular/majority vote, overall delegate count, and most primary wins. Democracy still means majority win!

The polls showed people without a collage degree and the old voters mostly supported Hillary.
So its fair to say:
No wonder some people DONT GET IT or SEE IT they lack knowledge therefore they are easily led kinda like cattle on a farm.
It's fair to say 'YA CANT TEACH OLD DOGS NEW TRICKS' thats why Hillary can Lie Lie Lie and these 'old dogs' will still vote for her cuz they want the same 'old politics'
Its the same 'old politics' why Gas is through the roof now $4/gal, your children will go to WAR in Iran (HILLARY SAID IT), the lobbyist and special interest groups will control the white house cuz the 'old politics' candidate (Hillary) is bought and you will lose your homes and your jobs shipped overseas!
Dont Come Crying!
No More Drama Vote Obama!!

By the official Democratic Primary rules Clinton has been mathematically knocked out of this race. The only way Hillary can be the nominee is by changing the rules in midstream. The Clinton campaign wants the rules changed and is betting on the DNC giving in to them. The Obama campaign wants the rules left alone.

Since when is it an option to change the rules in the middle of an election? That is something we hear of in other corrupt countries around the world, not in the United States of America. The Clintons are more than will to lower our election standards to the countries we've been against for so long. This is over, let's get on with it.

People have yet to see the true skin of Obama. I admit that he is very charismatic and very appealing in his speaches. However, I can't vote for him for he has a hidden agenda. Especially, when his wife made a comment that she is finally proud to be American. Wasn't she proud to be an American all this time that she'd been here in the US enjoying all the perks that came with it. Finally, at least with Hillary, she got the nerve to accept her mistake without minimizing i.e. making explanation and/or excuses unlike Obama........More power Hillary – make America prosper again.

Why are some folks still supporting Hillary? Fear. People fear change and they are clinging to the familar. Life was decent when Bill was in office, and they think if we can just put a Clinton back in office it will be decent again. But, no ground is gained in moving backwards. We as Americans need to take a deep breath, face our fear and move forward. We have a person who can lead us to do just that in Obama. I implore you and the remaining supers to get behind him, show the public that we can and will turn this country around; that we can't let fear guide us. This is still the home of the brave and its time we show our courage and send a clear message to the old Washington insiders we deserve and demand change!
OBAMA 08!

As for the super delegates, they know what they can do with their vote...one guess.

You got your 15 minutes – now make up your mind.

Obama's supporters seem more emotional.

This isn't good for anyone. Make a decision and do it quickly. It's time we unite behind a Democrat and start fighting John McCain. I would much rather call him a "dirty, rotten Politician" than one of my own.

Hillary kills th party......but Obama kills the Nation. Do not give your support to Mr. Obama he the liar......read his record when he still in college. Look he lied about being racially ambush and made up a life magazine story in his book "DREAMS FROM MY FATHER", lied about his
parents receiving scholarship from the Kennedys, lied about being constitutional professor, lied about not sitting in the church when Rev. Wright preached vile racial hatred and anti-Americans, lied about relationship with Mr. Rezko and lied about NAFTA.

Hillary 08 President.

i am a citizen of Nc and i know for a fact that many people in my area are not going to vote for obama because of his background, race, and plans for the country. I support clinton and hope she can have a good win in nc

BHO cant even anwer direct questions. that means he is not prepared and obviously not qualified to run for president. It's so simple..he doesn't have experience. Why vote for him. We dont need a president like that.

Hillary 08

Hillary is the smart choice for anyone,that's include superdelegate 2. superdelegate,don't make a mistake to endose someone like Obama who can not win the general election against McCain in the fall. Hillary is the smart choice and the only choice to take back the white house. Go Hillary 08!

That's the problem with these superdelegates. Do they realize that it ultimately hurts the country, the voters and the democratic party ? The maths (even with HRC's spin) is clear.

I agree. Obama should see this as a blessing in disguise, a rehearsal for the reality show in fall. It can't get any dirtier than a very desperate Hillary. When she is done with helping him rehearse, he will be ready for the Oscars in Nov!

Fence sitting 101.
Do you want lies or truth?
That's the bottom line.
Hillary has waaayyyyyy to much dirty laundry.
She is not strong. She is weak. She stayed with her philandering hubby so she could ride his soiled coat tails to the white house.
Admiration for this? I don't think so.
Read your history folks. Check out the blue dress. Check out Jennifer Flowers. Check out Whitewater. Check out Impeachment for lying Bill.
Shrillary backed him up. She is s sell out and a liar.

May knock him out...Thats everything that is wrong with these idiots called SD.

I think Obama & Clinton should start blasting Mccain Now. Ease up on each other. He's sitting back smilin' his butt off while the democrats beat up on each other with petty "you said the wrong word" and the media runs with it . How childish can you be?
McCain is NOT a war hero. He IS a war monger
He Bobed women & children from 30 thousand feet . He did not see the enemies eyes until they saved his butt by pulling him out of a pond.
Then gave him special treatment because his daddy was an admiral.

One reason Obama is a strong contender in NC is lack of msm coverage of his connections & actions: is no word of Khalidi & Said fund raisers, his pro-gun control stance record, numerous lies about his funding, father, and purported cousin Odinga, and only limited coverage of Rezko, Wright, NAFTA, etc. (This bubble will burst come the general). A second reason is our schools have a strong apologist tenor towards racial injustices and dismisses gender inequality as though it doesn't exist: it's evil to be racist, but perfectly fine to be sexist. Polygamist cults that rape little girls aren't seen as institutions of slavery in America but "lifestyle choices". Clinton has a strong record on human rights issues around the globe, Obama has none. I hope Parker will consider this when he chooses.

I've noticed that Sen Obama's Superdelegates ALWAYS mentions that he can unite the party while Sen Clinton supporters mention she can handle the deficit. Another insight on who cares about the PEOPLE in a democratic party. Maybe Clinton supporters think that she can win the general election without uniting the party???? She won't be able to fix any deficit if she can't WIN the general without unity... I'm not a Superdelegate so, I would hope that they're wise enough to note that little fact.

Why are you such a coward, oh I know you want to make sure you back the right person, well you better jump on the Obama train now or you won't be one of the supers who came out when it would make a diffference and President Obama will no doubt remember that.

wE HERE IN NC WILL PAY OUR ELECTED LEADERS BACK THSI FALL IF THEY DO NOT FOLLOW THE PEOPLE'S WILL. THOSE THAT HAVE ALREADY GOT SOME ON THE OBAMA TRAIN. THE REST CAN WAIT IF THEY WANT TO. THEY WILL BE LEFT AT THE STATION (REPUBLICAN AND DEMOCRATS). MARK THESE WORDS THAT IS WHAT IS ON THE GRAPEVINE. WE ARE SICK AND TRIED. JESSIE HELMS AND THAT CREW ARE GONE WITH THE WIND. THIS IS A NEW DAY AND NEW CENTURY. WE WANT CHANGE AT THE TOP. WE KNOW WE CAN CHANGE OUR BOTTOM. HRC AND HER CREW ARE NOT PART OF THE FORMATION OF THIS MORE PERFECT UNION OF FOR THE PEOPLE AND BY THE PEOPLE.

Hillary CANNOT win the nomination, period!, it is too late now.Let's talk about electability, who is more electable the guy who won twice as many states as her, won more delegates and more popular votes? or her, gimme a break.

Please Mr Parker! Do the right thing for the party and vote for Hillary. it is becoming more clear each day that Obama will not win in the general election. He can not win the big states even with his4 to1 dollar advantage. Do not let our party nominate yet again another super Liberal who is seen as snide, out of touch and rightly or wrongly seen as less than patriotic. wE HAVE BEEN DOWN THAT PATH TOO MANY TIMES BEFORE. Stop Obama before he destroys any chance that we may still have to beat McCain. The hard core Hillary supporters will not end up voting for Obama.

CLINTON GO HOME (and take your stupid wife with you)!

Why have people vote when you guys are the going to decide who the nominee is going to be. Stupid! if this election is stolen, the people will not sit back and accept this. Expect backlash.

PLEASE SPELL LIAR CORRECTLY IF YOU ARE AN OBAMA SUPPORTER, you're suppose to be the smart ones. HA. Check again about who is the liar, like, didn't hear Wrights speech but then later admitted he did. AND a few other ones. They are politicians, they all lie. They say what you want to hear, that's why they need experience so you can judge which are lies and which aren't. He is smart, he's waiting to see which way the wind blows and who will be able to win in Nov. Sorry, but don't think Obama can do it in Nov. Things are just now coming out about him, and people are worried that they don't know that much about him. His books are all about his father, but what about his mother and his grandparents who raised him. He wasn't on welfare, he went to an elite school in Hawaii.

I think the superdelegates have a right to wait and see how the candidates fair in the next contests especially if it is their State. Of course, it would be great if some would make up their minds from last night's primary in Pennsylvania. But I can certainly understand their hesitancy. I don't believe that these superdelegates should be bullied in any way. I believe that is how Senator Obama's camp has worked in the past (and who knows still might be). That is their tactic and I think it is pretty disgraceful if you ask me. Just let these superdelegates make up their own minds based on their OWN opinion of whoever candidate they believe is the stronger one in which to give them their endorsement. Just leave them alone already. They have a tough choice to make enough as it is. GO HILLARY 08!!!!!!

I really think its time for a change no longer recycling same names at the white house. Let the tussle be over. At least with the current results, it is evident that Obama cuts across racial divide and appears more generally acceptable by his numerous wins in several states. Despite Clinton's vantage point right from the beginning of this race, Obama over took her and is now in lead. This shows his viability for the white house.

I think the DNC should end the super dummy's after the nominee is decided. It seems that like the attention there getting, it's probably a lot more attention then they get at home.

Alpha, Beta and Gamma
Say 'Goodbye Obama'

Each heard loud and clear voice
Hillary is THE sane choice

Theta, Kappa and Pi
Obama,its a humble goodbye

Come hail, storm, rain or dew
Hillary, keep your march to Penn. Avenue

Leadership is about making tough decisions, this should be easy for you considering the situations you face as a Governor. Step up and be a leader, choose one or the other it's that simple. We all know exactly what each stand for by now. The SD's need to stop letting this party go into the tank because they are too scared to demonstrate decisive leadership.

The super-delegates should not be rushed into a decision they might later regret. The purpose of the super-delegates is to INDEPENDENT of the primary process – to make up their minds in accordance with what they feel would be best for the country, party, etc. Those individuals who initially backed Hillary and later "changed their minds" because of "how their district voted" shouldn't be eligible for any "profile in courage" awards anytime soon.

He should vote as the people he represents do. Simple.

It ain't Hillary that's killing the party – with 90% of the African American vote, I believe we can say that the party splitter is Obama and he's doing it down racial lines.
He won the far left caucuses where only the farthest left 10% of the party even bothers to show up. Other than that, he's a loser. He outspends 3 and 4 to 1 and doesn't close. I want a President who accomplishes 100% of the goal with 25% of the money instead of Obama's 0% of the goal with 100% of the money.
Folks just want to make themselves feel better by saying they back the African American because somehow that proves that they're not racists. If you choose him as your nominee, it's going to be a sad day because once he hits the big court, he's going to get his buttocks handed to him on a platter. Between he and his supporters arrogance and sarcasm, he's alienated over 50% of Hillary supporters. Throw in religious independents and all of the Republicans and, well, you can count. The biggest mistake you make is thinking that the nomination is the end game.

just do the right thing and endorse Obama the next great Progressive
Democratic President of the United States

All of this "changing-minds" stuff is for weak people. Wimp.

I wish the superdelegates would just cast their votes and be done with it. If you are for Hillary say so, If you are for Obama say so. The superdelegates that are holding out seem to have no backbone. They are elected officials who should be able to make a decision and stick by it, but instead they stand not for the people, but for themselves; what if I vote and people get angry, what if I vote and lose my next election, what if; what if; what if. Voters we should look at the superdelegates from each of our states and make a conscious decision that if they cannot vote then they are not worthy of our vote. Get them out of office and get someone in that can make a decision. Why would anyone in a position such as the superdelegates stand by and watch their party self destruct because they are self centered. I have lost all hope in the party, in the elected officials and the way we as democrats are fighting, in the people who I thought had a common interest. If you love Hillary that is o.k., but stop with the hate, If your are for Obama that is o.k. but stop with the hate. What makes any of us any better if we act in the same manner that we say we despise. Let's be Christians and act Christ like and make good sound decisions for our families, nation and ourselves. God Bless!!!!!

LET'S GET RID OF HILLARY IN NORTH CAROLINA AND HER EXCESS CLINTON BAGGAGE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THIS WHOLE THING IS SO CHILDISH AND RIDICULOUS!!!!!!!!

SHE IS MEAN – I WOULD NOT WANT HER TO REPRESENT OUR COUNTRY TO THE REST OF THE WORLD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Undecided, undecided undecided... WHYYYYYYYYYYYYY?..by now all superdelegates heard enough debates, speeches, pools and pools of pools to make up their mind. Those that are still not able to decide DON'T QUALIFY TO BE A SUPERDELEGATE AND SHOULD LOOSE THEIR STATUS- PERIODE!!

Pennsylvania You ROCK!

California Loves you!!!!

Hillary all the Way!

By the time they make up their minds there won't be a Democratic party to support. All this in-party fighting is destroying it.

I just posted over on MSNBC's First Read about this: I feel like Howard Dean is swinging at a piñata filled with superdelegate "candy", but he's not actually BUSTING it open, just leaking out the candy, and Obama's always the first one under it. Hilly's like the fat kid who has to dig through the pile to get a Tootsie Roll. She's gotten, what, 5 SDs since February? Howie needs to crack it so we can all go in for cake and presents. Do we get a Goodie Bag?

(PS – How come a lot of my comments sit in "moderation" and never get posted? I'd like to think it's 'cause I'm such a firebrand... haha, yeah right. And how come people who say "How come you never post me?" always get posted when they say that? You guys are sure jokers...)

Just cast the vote for Obama and end the the Hill-thrill ride....

Agree with everything David Parker said regarding the state of play at the moment, Obama needs to prove himself and Cliton just needs to keep racking up those wins to put preasure on all of the numbers that are floating out there.

Unfortunately, the delegate count is rapidly becoming a moot point. I am a Democrat and Clinton supporter but I see our party throwing away the November election again! Thanks to stupid decisions by Howard Dean and the other Democratic powerbrokers making stupid rules the party hierarchy has doomed the candidate for president to defeat whomever it may be.

If Obama wins the nomination I and most of my friends will vote for McCain and I understand that will be the case for some Obama people if Clinton wins and in either case that will give the presidency to the Republicans. It is too late to mend the divide between the Obama and Clinton supporters. The party has polarized its own members, a big mistake. If, as many people say, Obama is the choice then all his baggage will come to light because the Republicans are experts at showing the worst of their opponent. Clinton is the only one with a chance of winning over McCain and the only one capable of taking away some of McCains support but that will not be enough if the Obama supporters vote Republican.

John McCain might as well pack his bags and his wife can start picking out furniture for their new home in the White House thanks to the incompetence of the Democratic leadership.

CLINTON WILL WIN!!!!

DO YOU THINK THAT H.R. CLINTON IS RUNNING FOR THE CANDIDANCY SO SHE CAN TOUGHEN UP OBAMA, THEN YOU ARE ALL DREAMING IN TECHNICOLOR.

SHE IS IN TO THE END TO WIN AND WIN SHE WILL.

AND YOU PEOPLE THAT KEEP WANTING TO BRING UP BOSNIA,

SO WHAT, IS THAT ALL YOU HAVE TO HOLD HER ACCOUNTABLE FOR BECAUSE SHE EMBELLISHED AN INCIDENT, THAT DOES NOT MEAN SHE LIED...

THERE WERE COMBATANTS IN THE HILLS AND SNIPER FIRE WAS HAPPENING DAYS BEFORE SHE ARRIVED AND IT ALL GOT JELLED IN THE RETELLING (((SO WHAT)))

SHE WILL WIN STATES WHERE IT IS IMPORTANT AND WHERE THERE ARE NOT 90% RACIST.

My point exactly, Obama will not win in November. He may inspire, but he can't get the job done. I don't trust his judgement at all. He never showed any, in 20 years with that church. He has not denounced that churchs basic principles, which are anti-american, anti-white,anti-jew etc. I'm not just talking about his mentor Rev. Wright, the whole churchs philosophy.

I wish these super delegates could stop lying and justifying Hillary actions by saying it helps him.This dirty,slum,and disinformation politics helps no one.It will only be good win the SD grow a backbone like the republican party and end this.

FOR GOD SAKE – Just do the RIGHT THING for your state and for our COUNTRY Dave!!!!

With faith, Obama forces march on to Waterloo!

Hiliary Clinton beat Barack Obama by 8 points in Pennsylvania. She obviously connected with the voters there. From Indiana, the Obama campaign asked for $100. Though a sacrifice, for the next two weeks, we must wage the war against Hiliary, Bill, and McCain. Come hell or high water, the People’s Revolution must succeed. Because she has loads of bills, a campaign that is broke, and her contributors are dried up, Hiliary doesn't have a prayer. “These are the times that try men’s souls.” Superdelegates need to pay Hiliary a visit to remind her how she’s tearing up the party. But, they probably still don’t have the moral backbone. Meanwhile, faith keeps us going: “But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” (Hebrews 11:6)

The bottom line, Barack Obama? You need to get into general election mode and attack McCain! Attack Clinton for her mistakes too, especially her incendiary, cowboy Iran rhetoric and other foreign policy blunders. Ordinary people want you to stop playing it “too cool!” Stand up to the disconnected media! Tell ordinary people why you love America. On the economic side in Indiana and North Carolina, go grocery shopping! Indiana is hers to lose, and North Carolina is yours to lose! So connect, have faith, and we'll make up the difference because May 6th is our Waterloo!

this is a no-brainer.
1. the math makes it IMPOSSIBLE for the Evil Witch from Scranton/wherever to catch up.
2. she is HATED by almost 60% of the American people.

fair and square,si se puede!!! puh-leez, get this over with.

Obama supporters, why do you all keep running everybody down, I dont think 'where are your brains' comments are going to make them jump to Obama, I hope the SD read these blogs.

Hopefully you can cast who you are supporting before they come to the Carolinas and hopefully it will be for Obama.

Hey, guys...have you heard the news.....Obama has picked up more superdelegates today. Check out Obama's website with the announcement. It appears the superdelegates that were for Edwards have gone to Obama's side! Yea, that ought to tick Hill off....

Obviously, Rep Tanner (from TN) is failing to adhere to or showing gross disregard of Sen Clinton’s voting record in the senate...when he said that " she can work with others to return to fiscal sanity." Sen Clinton has her own views of the world and how it should be... and will never compromise those rigid views for anything. Clearly, she has demonstrated that attitude in this primary that things should go her WAY OR NO WAY. I will never vote for her. I will have a better use of my time on the general elections day than to vote for either Sen. Clinton or McBush. They are the epitome of the well establishments of Washington... The same people who with all their (Washington) experience have failed the American people over and over again. So why can’t we give a new person like Obama a chance? If Pres Bush was given a shot to the presidency then anyone should be.

Gallup Daily: Obama 50%, Clinton 42% Nationally NEW April 23, 2008
Barack Obama now leads Hillary Clinton by 8 percentage points among national Democratic voters, 50% to 42%. This includes interviewing Tuesday night as the returns of the Pennsylvania primary were coming in, but it is too soon to know what, if any, impact that election may have on national preferences. WILL THIS HELP?

Hillary in PA showed that Obama's ability to win a general election is questionable.

Hillary's ability is not questionable. SHE IS UNQUESTIONABLY UNELECTABLE.

Sorry Obama supporters, but Hillary has this. Before you jump on me, let me give you the reasons the superdelegates will ultimately choose Hillary Clinton over Obama.

1. She delivers when necessary. All the big states, except one have gone to her.

2. Obama wins caucuses, but not democratic only primaries.

3. He has not been fully vetted. One more scandal and he is done. As it is, all his scandals have played into black issues, thereby alienating the white men that ultimately vote.

4. He is a niche campaigner. Sure, he can deliver the black vote, but that is only 13%, and he can deliver the young vote, but even last night that failed because they did not show up.

5. He tried to buy the election, and the one thing about this cycle is that money is not talking effectively. Look at John McCain as the perfect example of broke, but the nominee.

6. He can't think on his feet. The last debate proved that. It made him look worse when he complained about it afterward.

So, it's not personal, it's politics. Obama can't win the nation in November.

Trying to play both sides, eh, Mr. Parker?
We all know Billary is toast. Why all this talk about her comeback in PA? She started out in PA with a freak_in 25 point lead!
Please end the madness, endorse Obama and let's start preparing for the inevitable battle in November!

Obama 08 & 12

Obama has no one to blame but himself. He need to knock her out in N.C and Indiana and stop this MADNESS.

I know it hard for a black man to hit hard at a white woman, but we are giving you permission to knock her out.

The tide is turning for Hillary … Oh no it’s a Tsunami to wash her away.

Go away Hillary!!! You will not have Rendell and Strickland in N.C and Indiana. What will you do?

Barack Obama 08

To the NC superdelegate: Sir, do you honestly feel that Obama can lead this country? Do you honestly feel that Obama can beat McCain?

The Republican party will chew him up and spit him out.

Please do what is right for America and endorse Hillary!

Hillary or McCain 08!

Obama should be looking for a VP. and making it VERY VERYclear to the super-delegates that should Hillary with the help of the supers steal the nomination then he Will declare and run FOR PRESIDENT as an independent Democrat and completely destroy any chance of a Clinton Whitehouse win.

Get off the fence superdelegate cowards. Grow a pair.

Come to momma Mr. Parker...in essence come toward Hillary.

SUPPORT SENATOR CLINTON!!!!!!

NObama will not be electable in the General.

Go Hillary!!!!

Is he indirectly giving his vote to Obama? He is saying that alittle sparring with Hillary won't hurt Obama but will be some good training for him in the fall. Who says Obama will be there in the fall? It will definitely be Clinton going against McCain in November so Obama does not need any training. If anything, its Clinton who is practicing on Obama for her fight against McCain.

Endorse Hillary Clinton. It'll be worth your while. Our country will benefit from it.

Just decide already!! 4/5ths of the states already voted, millions already decided, it can't be that difficult!!!

Seriously – any superdelegate who can't decide by the time everyone has voted needs to be replaced, and preferably shot. Stop torturing the dems!!!

Cowards Cowards Cowards! They have had there minds made up since super Tuesday I would like to see an investigation into how much money they have invested in the media companies that are making a fortune off this garbage!

Go Obama 08 Yes We Can

Just more BS from a SD.. Make your choice and end this thing before Hillary kills the party. Do not give your support to a lier. Where are your brains....... Obama 08

gov, spit it out already or are you just trying to see who will win, then jump on the bandwagon?
