Rep. Wu is supporting Obama.

(CNN) - Oregon Rep. David Wu said Thursday he will cast his superdelegate vote for Barack Obama.

"I think we are blessed to have two strong candidates for president," Wu said in a statement released by Obama's campaign. "I am endorsing Barack Obama for president today because I believe that he is best suited to turn the page on this sorry episode in American history. He and I both had the judgment to oppose the Iraq War from the very beginning.

Wu, a five term congressman, is one of the party's nearly 800 superdelegates who will ultimately decide who gets the Democratic presidential nomination. He is the second Oregon superdelegate to endorse Obama ahead of the state's May 20 primary - Rep. Earl Blumenauer endorsed the Illinois senator earlier in the year.

Clinton also has two Oregon superdelegates in her camp - Gov. Ted Kulongoski and Rep. Darlene Hooley.

roy p and all the others like you, why dont you just shut up you idiots. The hand writing in on the wall, he is a winner already, because she cant win, the math is not there, and the SD cannot go against the popular votes, else there will be hell to pay, and I mean there will be HELL TO PAY.

Now a Wu Fan   April 24th, 2008 6:16 pm ET

Good choice Mr. Wu! What took you so long?

Superdelegates....If you don't know who to vote for by now, you have some serious credibility issues. We'll be keeping an eye on you!

Misty   April 24th, 2008 6:10 pm ET

Awesome! David Wu– Perfect Choice in Obama

I hope the Clinton Supporters realize what a caniving, evil, lying person Senator Hillary Clinton is. She has used every sleazy technique to get ahead in Primaries (and is still way behind Senator Obama). The fact that she claims she has popular votes!!! (After she counts Florida and Michigan (Obama's name was not in Michigan) is Ludicrous. Next she can have oly Clinton Supporters vote for her and claim that 100% people love her and she should be the President. Maybe Senator Clinton with her Cheating Husband should move to Timbaktu!!! and leave the good people of USA pick OBAMA for President.

Go Obama ('08, '12)

All,
I am a registered independent. I am thinking about voting for a democrat in November, but if all of this negative campaiging doesn't end soon and I mean real soon, I will have to vote for Mr McCain!

We all should be focusing on healthcare, education for our kids, the economy, millions of people have either lost or getting ready to lose their homes, gas prices out here in California already OVER $4.00 a gallon!

Somebody, anybody, please HELP us ALL! Please STOP the PAIN!
Is anybody listening? George Bush are you listening? Does anybody hear me? Some body, smoebody, please HELP!

WOW...read "Chang Rules, So I Can't Lose" above. When I read the name I figured it was an Obama supporter being sarcastic. I'm completely flabbergasted... Your inability to recognize irony in your comment is exactly what has you mentally crippled to the point that you can support Clinton. The characteristics Clinton has displayed during this campaign are identical to those displayed by the Bush administration during the past 8 years. I have no reason to believe that she, much like McCain, wouldn't yield the same results as Bush on an international scale. One other note...isn't it interesting how the states that Clinton is predicted to win are "crucial" states and how her eventual wins are blown out of proportion; while Obama's states are marginalized? Why isn't there any pressure for Clinton to win North Carolina?

A vote AGAINST Obama   April 24th, 2008 5:45 pm ET

Here we go again. ONE more person deciding what is right for millions. The popular vote no longer counts but it will when these superdelegates are out of their offices sitting on their behinds and wondering what went wrong. REMEMBER OBAMA will be their call.
I am not elderly, I am educated which is why I realize that Hillary is the best canidate. It will break my heart to vote for McCain but I will if Clinton is not on the ticket.

CeeJay   April 24th, 2008 5:45 pm ET

Come on Superdelegates. Close the deal and show Hillary that the American people are ready for change and unity.

Margo Murphy   April 24th, 2008 5:41 pm ET

Bottom line. Senator Obama does not have the experience needed for be President. He is a very young senator w/o an established voting record. His voting record while an Illinois Senator is shaky at best. Who knows what he really believes? Black/white, male/female. Senator Obama does not get my vote. We've had eight years of far right attitudes. I do not think this country needs another 4-8 years of far left attitdues. It's Senator's Clinton or McCain from this long life Democrat.

Joe   April 24th, 2008 5:41 pm ET

PS: To Concerned Democrat: You obvisouly are not from China...you could be SHOT for saying things like that! Oh, that's right...this is America...I sacrificed for 25 years so you my friend could make such an uneducated comment such as that!!!

Todd, Kenosha, WI   April 24th, 2008 5:40 pm ET

Thanks Senator Wu,
The American people that still value the cornerstones of what America was built on such as truth, honesty, integrity appreciate your vote for Senator Obama today. Hillary for the sake of the party, please stop the lies and the tall stories. It is time to bring the party back together to stop this maddness. You are only tearing the party apart further each day YOU allow it to continue. McCain's chance to bring the Country further down the wrong path are increasing exponentially as time goes by.

Thank you David Wu!!!! Let the Hillary supporters put you down – comments about your nationality, your HEAD? If you had come out in support of the duo – Hill and Bill – they would be reaping praise all over you. But because you had the courage to say 'no' to the Clinton political machine, Hillary's supporters will try and discount you for whatever reason. Great to have you aboard the Obama train!!!!!

Yes We Can.

MEG   April 24th, 2008 5:28 pm ET

It is my opinion that these delegates that promise their vote in Nov. can change their minds between now and then. There will be some that will, so who can count on any of them that procmise now?

James, Houston, TX.   April 24th, 2008 5:27 pm ET

Rep. Wu is a Super Delegate ? Whew, In Texas we say, "He's got a Good Head" for Tamales, Maybe ! The lingo is that Hog Heads are used in making tamales.
Obama is getting to the Nut Cutting; It is what it Is !

Terrence W from NC   April 24th, 2008 5:27 pm ET

OBAMA tried to be positive. But Clinton just keeps nagging with her attacks on him, instead of making herself look better.

Who would you like him to do? NOTHING?

Should

He

JUST

TAKE

CRAP

FROM

THE

CLINTONS?

OR defend himself?
And when he depends himself, you say he's going negative. LOL

OBAMA 08, The UN – LIAR!

Paul   April 24th, 2008 5:18 pm ET

We sincerely hope Clinton wins.

There are some delegates who ignore the popular vote.

Hillary has won the states needed for the general election. And if you count Michigan and Florida that in real life must count, then she beats Obama so far by 100,000 votes

Soe please support Hillary if you want a Democrat in the White House

Why?

She is more experienced
She is for the people
She is a fighter

Why not Obama?

He lacks experience
He slammed the people of Pennsylvania
We do not need a president who insults the Americans.

Strongly for Hillary Now

Michael, North Carolina   April 24th, 2008 5:17 pm ET

It's the red, white ,and blue coming at you. The american people are speaking in volumes, and the word is that this race was over a long, long time ago, like after Wisconsin. WHICH WAS A STATE THAT WAS SIMILAR TO PENN. Sen. Obama won that state by 17 points. So this was a state that was considered to be in Sen. Clintons backyard and Sen. Obama won it big time. So it's my opinion that Sen. Clinton should have dropped out after her Wisconsin lost. The race has become to personal and negative and the superdelegates should put a stop to it, and do the right. By giving the nod to Sen. Obama because of his commanding lead he can not be caught in pledged delegates, popular vote, or number of states won.
SEN. OBAMA A REAL AMERICAN HERO.

YES WE CAN
OBAMA/CASEY '08

mike   April 24th, 2008 5:16 pm ET

HEY NY – Actually this endoresment does matter because he is a super delegate. The clinton people have change the goal posts and the requirements for vitory so much that they have forgotten the rules entirely.

Actually he will win in "high electoral states". The democratic machine (people like Rendell, Carvell, Corazine, etc) have pledge to support the democratic no matter who wins, So drop this notion that he can not win big states.

ABC   April 24th, 2008 5:09 pm ET

Wu, you are idiot to make this decision.

Tex-gal   April 24th, 2008 5:08 pm ET

Rep. Wu, and Senator Clinton didn't vote for the ENERGY POLICY ACT 2005, better known as the BUSH/CHENEY 2005 ENERGY BILL, but Obama did, being that his state of Illinois was to profit from it. He campaigns against oil giants, yet he supports them, and yes, he has accepted campaign monies from them and lies about it. All the presidential candidates have accepted contributions, but do not deny it. Research his endorsements, many of the active and former congressmen have ties to big oil companies. OIL INTERESTS ARE CONNECTED TO THE WAR IN IRAQ. He didn't vote for the war in Iraq because he wasn't in the Senate, but he has voted for all it's funding to date. The circumstances after 9/11 were fresh, and Congress was relying on the information from the Dept. of State, Dept. of Defense, etc. at the time the attack on Iraq was up for a vote. This country was literally in panic at the time. Vote for experience and reliability. VOTE FOR HILLARY !!!!!!!!!!!

alice2   April 24th, 2008 5:04 pm ET

GOOD CHOICE. My sentiments exactly. Hillary needs to QUIT. She is running a negative campaign set out to destroy the Dem party.

Marshall in Nebraska   April 24th, 2008 5:03 pm ET

CNN — I really hope you cashed the check before you put Hillary's link on your page. What happened to Unbiased.

Charles AZ   April 24th, 2008 4:53 pm ET

Some say Obama cannot win against McCain. From the beginning, the Republicans made it clear by their attacks on Obama, that they want to run against Hillary because her negatives are much higher than Obama's negatives. The Republicans also fear Obama's ability to inspire people in general and to bring in new voters in particular. Hillary neither inspires nor excites people like Obama does.

For these reasons, Obama can win against McCain because the Republicans fear Obama more than Hillary.

IAMWMD   April 24th, 2008 4:48 pm ET

Camp Clinto is running out of time. A few more superdelegates moving towards Obama will lock it up.

There won't be a enough superdelegates left for Camp clinton

avok   April 24th, 2008 4:42 pm ET

First–let me say that Sen. Obama is fantastic. I would be proud to vote for him. Having said that, by building up Obama, I do not denigrate Se. Clinton. "I am most impressed by his call for a new kind of politics." Yet, when i read these postings I am so saddened. I don't think it can be achieved. The pro-Obama postings include a large number of arrogant, mean-spirited, ad hominem attacks on Se. Clinton. To be sure some of the pro-Clinton postings are also disrespectful to Se. Obama. It just seems that the Obama supporters, in greater numbers, have a negative edge–unbecoming of his message. Just based on the tone of the postings, I have to say that I would not be comfortable with the authors. Yet I remain proud of Se. Obama. I mean this as a serious sincere question–why are the so many of the pro-Obama postings so contradictory of his message?

Wonderful!!! I wonder how many more would show their support if the news media would beat the pavement on the 17 million fraud suit in Los Angeles against the Clintons? First Amendment Rights...Frivolous lawsuit...Anti-SLAPP law? What are the next Clionton lies going to be? Bosnia Trip...... The news media would rather crucify a canidate for the words of another than tell the story of the criminal actions of the Clintons. Wake up America, we do not need the Clintons.

mike   April 24th, 2008 4:41 pm ET

Another big SD gain for Obama-he still has momentum and we can see that his Iraq war vote was brave and showed great leadership when other democrats were too scared for their political lives to vote their conscience. To all those Hillary supporters who don't think Obama can take McCain, this is what Hillary wants you to think so that she can try and erode his support. Please don't be fooled by these head games.

Some of us are tired of letting the real issues be swept under the rug. We are ready to help bring this country back to it's greatness & even better because it will be inclusive progress rather than just the usual suspects !

Wow! This is a great thing. He can see that he does not want a Lier and a Cheat back in the White House. There are a lot of questions that the Clintons have not answered and won't answer and they are racist. They have played the race card since this campaign started. They can't see themselves losing to a Black Man and that is a problem for them.

Go Obama Go. I am a 57 year old woman and my husband is 60 and we will be voting for Obama!

Even if we have to write him in we will do just that

You know what is the truth and you can see how the Clintons and their campaign are destroying the Party. Why is it that the rest of the SD's don't see it?

Obama is truthful, honest and trustworthy! The Clintons are nasty bad acting and use to be Republicans and they are Very good friends with McCain. All I have to say is Watergate, Travelgate, Monica, impeachment, the library, etc.

NO WAY   April 24th, 2008 4:08 pm ET

From “Dreams of My Father.” page 229,

“THERE WERE NO CIGAR CHOMPING CRACKERS LIKE BULL CONNOR OUT THERE.” The use of “cracker” was unnecessary and salacious.

“To avoid being mistaken for a sellout, I chose my friends carefully. The more politically active black students. The foreign students. The Chicanos. The Marxist professors and structural feminists.”

From Dreams Of My Father;

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

Obama Loser   April 24th, 2008 4:04 pm ET

Obama will LOSE!

Even if he wins the Democratic nomination, alot of Democrats see Obama for what he truly is. He is a racist and Anti-American. All one has to do is read his books and wallah, all the answers.

Myself and talking to my Democrat friends all said they would not vote for a racist and someone who is Anti-American like Obama. So if there is a choice between the Anti-American Obama and a true red blooded American like McCain, well let's just say ole Dean f-d this one up for the Democrats.

Danny   April 24th, 2008 4:03 pm ET

Mr. Wu you got the Wrong guy boy........please don't vote for him. You know he the liar let read his story first. He lied about NAFTA, lied about relationship with Mr. Rezko, lied about meeting Auchi, lied about not sitting in the church when Rev. Wright preached about vile racial hatred and anti-Americans, lied about his parents receiving scholarship from
Kennedys and lied about being constitutional professor.

Hillary 08 President.

PAY ATTENTION " TOO LATE"", WHEN OBAMA MADE THE SHOULDER BRUSHING MOTION, HE WAS NOT BRUSHING OFF CLINTON SUPPORTERS, BUT RATHER ALL THE INSULTS AND BULL THAT SHE HAS THROWN HIS WAY. NOT ONLY IS CLINTON A SPINNER, BUT HER SUPPORTERS ALSO SEEM DIZZY FROM OVER GYRATING.

Come on CNN, stop being so Pro OBAMA...

Rolling out endorsements after crushing defeats seems so transparent. First it was Judas Bill Richardson after bad losses in TX & OH now its this WU guy after the slaughter in PA.

1.2 Million just endorsed Hillary in PA and those speak louder than MR Wu's or Judas Bills endorsements.

Go Hillary all the way in 08!!!!

Al   April 24th, 2008 3:52 pm ET

For months I have been reading and listening to everything out there. Obviously people are looking for change, either way both candidates represent this, imagine the United States a superpower electing a woman or a black man for president that would be amazing, all of our past presidents have been older (senior) white men. I support Mr.Obama 100% but if he were not running I would have supported J.Edwards.
I do not know if anyone out there has thought of the following but picture this, right now the US economy is in the hole, our dollar is falling at a ridiculous pace due to all the government spending, there is no answer to the housing problem and our enemies are laughing at how we act toward each other.
Mr.Obama has tried not to fall into the same category, but I do agree there comes a time where he has to defend himself.
There has to be a point where we sit back and ask ourselves who we want to represent us out there...Our enemies and those who are unsure of our stability unfortunately come from a different world, they do not view many things the way we do. I don't know about everyone else but I know that one day we will have a woman president I just don't think that given the situation we are in, this is the time or that Clinton is the right choice, people hear her name and remember Bill Clinton’s presidency, fyi he is not running.
Mr. Obama reflects before he speaks, his ideas are full of possibilities; he is a diplomat at heart. That makes me feel sure of his ability to represent my country, face to face, before other nation’s leaders. I believe that he represents change for a better tomorrow.
As a mother and business owner I tend to look to the future...

IT IS ONLY "WHEN" NOT "IF' OBAMA WINS...

No one said it would be easy to break a 20 year quasie monarchy hold on the whitehouse by two families one of which is striving for another 8. Our campaign is not about win at any price, do what ever it takes to win, and if need be, destroy your opponent in the process. Make Promise’s you know you can not keep to win. Real change means just that. A new appraoch, a new fresh set of ideas, a new person, someone who can bring us all together not tear us apart.

Talking points will not change the reality. The rules, the math, the calandar does not lie and can not be changed. Obama will have won more pledged delegates, more states and more votess. He should expect the remaining superdelegates to vote for him accordingly. They will.

Jerri   April 24th, 2008 3:50 pm ET

Good choice. Way to go. Welcome aboard the honest and willing team.

Thank you Congressman Wu! Obama has picked up more superdelegates since PA. More are sure to follow – I believe this was 4 for Obama since PA! Go Obama – my 89 year old father & 63 year old mother-in-law voted for you too!

Vote Hillary   April 24th, 2008 3:45 pm ET

Obama has left us with enough hints as to what he's about and we need to take them before it's too late. He has stated that the reason he's running for president now as opposed to later is because "in eight years from now, 10 years from now, we may still be nice people, but we may be in this orbit where we just don’t remember, we don’t hear people’s voices anymore." That's his quote referring to a discussion that he and his wife had. According to Obama, being a Washington politician will change him. This is not the change we were talking about!

Cincinnati Kid   April 24th, 2008 3:44 pm ET

Roy P... he will win in ALL of the Dem states no matter whether Clinton won them in the primary or not. He will also win the "battleground" states that he won in the primaries. He will have all of the Dems (less the racist), most of the Independents, and many, many Republicans. Look at the numbers... Dems are out-voting the GOP 4-1 +... this is a Democratic year, we WILL have a Democrat president. this year... and it WILL be OBAMA !!! Just start getting used to the idea.

And your surprised why!!   April 24th, 2008 3:44 pm ET

Why is everyone so surprised. The Republicians do not want Clinton to win. McCain can and will beat OBAMA. More Republican tricks.
No surprise here.

AKRON, OHIO OBOMA SUPPORTER   April 24th, 2008 3:39 pm ET

WHY DID HILLARY TAKE OBOMA YES WE CAN AND TRY TO TURN IT TO YES WE WILL. IT'S OBVIOUS THAT SHE COULD NOT THINK OF SOMETHING OF HER OWN. HILLARY IS SICK, SICK OF HER OWN LIES. AND A COPY-CAT ALSO. WE NEED AND HONEST PRESIDENT WHICH IS WHAT OBOMA IS. AND HE IS RIGHT NOT TO DISOWN HIS PASTOR THE SAME PEOPLE YOU PAST GOING UP IS THE SAME PEOPLE YOU PAST ON THE WAY BACK DOWN. HILLARY AND THE MEDIA IS FULL OF IT. JUST LIKE BILL TRIED TO SAY THAT HE DIDN'T SAY THAT THE OBOMA CAMP PLAYED THE RACE CARD ON HIM. THANKS GOD FOR CAMERAS BOTH HE AND HILLARY WERE CAUGHT IN THEIR LIES. THERE IS NOT CLINTON SUPPORTERS OUT THERE THAT CAN DENY THIS, HILLARY AND BILL BOTH ARE LIARS. I DID NOT HAVE SEX WITH THAT WOMAN. HA HA HA OH HOW IS MONICA

OBOMA ALL THE WAY 08

Angel B   April 24th, 2008 3:39 pm ET

Rolling out endorsements after crushing defeats seems so transparent. First it was Judas Bill Richardson after bad losses in TX & OH now its this WU guy after the slaughter in PA.

1.2 Million just endorsed Hillary in PA and those speak louder than MR Wu's or Judas Bills endorsements.

Go Hillary all the way in 08!!!!

And it gets worse.

Mike from Westchester   April 24th, 2008 3:38 pm ET

I just love all the immature Clinton supporter who keep threatening to vote for McCain if they don't get what they want in the primaries. Please grow up.

I do have an idea where all the Clintonite venom comes from. Just ask me about all the disrespectful behavior and bigotted comments I had to put up with campaigning for Senator Obama in Philly. I did not see one instance of Obama supporters abusing Clinton suppoters in the eight days I was there, but plenty from Hillary supporters.

bond   April 24th, 2008 3:37 pm ET

Hillary's momentun is only on TV pundits. They are being lobbied by the Clinton campaign to push positives about her and ignore her negatives.
Watch, do you see how the Bosnia story disappeared quickly? They are still talking about the bitter comment. The good thing is, they don't control who actually votes. Obama will win. That's just a bitter fact. Sorry pundits! You too.

Reelverse   April 24th, 2008 3:37 pm ET

If the rest of the state's delegates are split 50-50 or average 50-50. Obama needs about 100 more superdelegates to clinch the nomination.

ProudIndependent from Indiana   April 24th, 2008 3:35 pm ET

For all you Hillary Supporters, North Carolina and Indiana will be the end of the race. The new Newsweek National poll has Obama opening up a 20% lead. The reality is that despite the spin on the part of the Hillary Clinton campaign, the expectation was that Hillary would blow out Obama in Pennsylvania. That did not happen. Barrack Obama got 45% of the vote in a state that is more than 75% white. He is well positioned for an absolute thumping of Hillary in North Carolina. Hillary needs a lot of superdelegates to defect to her side "NOW." If it doesn't happen now, in 2 weeks, it will be painfully obvious that she is twice as unelectable as Obama. I believe that Obama will obtain more than 65 percent of the NC vote. I might be conservative. However, that would mean that he will get 75 of NC's 115 delegates by proportion. This would net him about 40 delegates. Hillary only had a net gain of 12 in PA. Folks, it is over! The fat lady has sun! The boat has departed the harbor!

M.S. Indiana   April 24th, 2008 3:35 pm ET

Welcome to the Obama camp David Wu, got any friends ??

Whatever   April 24th, 2008 3:35 pm ET

Jeez! Obama can say anything and people will buy it. 1 of the 3 Oregon delegates signs on with him, but you'd think he'd slam-dunked the party nomination the way it's being reported. One second they say let the popular vote decide, the next thing they say let the super delegates do the deed. Both sides are just as guilty as the other on this, but the truth is - this race is still too close to call, so get over it. Noone's in a position to either concede or do their victory dance. Let this thing play out the way it plays out. Anything other than that smacks of dirty politics. That is the democratic way. Calling it before the votes are in doesn't work. That's the sort of thing that put Dubya in the White House.

sele   April 24th, 2008 3:34 pm ET

Clinton would have won in penn due to demographics like we heard.
But if more super delegates are turning to Obama even after he lost in the purported big state we should take a closer look at the man Obama. He sure has something which clinton does not.

Foreign observer   April 24th, 2008 3:33 pm ET

In Wu´s eyes she simply lost her face. Same way this already happend when she was in China.

Its absolutely strange to hear that a tennisplayer who is winning most GAME SETS meaning most points during A tennis game has to be declaired a loser just because It happens to be his or her first time to play in a Wembly Tournament , this is happening right infront of our eyes on CNN as we are watching and following WITH intreste in Democracy of the United States, now The United States Democratic party in Hillary Clinton campain they have a different way of how a winner should be described. You know a long long time a ago a SHORTER SISTER refused to recognise the height of TALLER BROTHER just because SHE was OLDER than HIM this resulted into a family fued and a split . but the brother stayed tall no matter the sisters REFUSAL of accepting his HEIGHT.
think again freinds in Democratic Party,
BARACK means BLESSINGS -IN SWAHILI

we love you man please tell all your friend all over the country to do the same thing. I will be donating 20 everytime Obama gets more Delegate. I have voted since 1996 for Democrate but never involved this much because this guy is Kennedy and Clinton first term Before he become Washingtonian.

Way to go Rep. Wu standing up for the real man, Obama.

He has also give us OBAMA for us to realise how bad the Clintons are.

Roy P   April 24th, 2008 3:26 pm ET

Give it a rest. Obama cannot win in high electoral states. No matter how you word these questions, he cannot win a national election. Winning in republican controlled states does not fool most democratic voters.

Why, on earth, does Obama continue to get (and grab) credit for "voting" against the war in Iraq? Read my lips: HE WASN'T EVEN YET IN THE SENATE IN ORDER TO TAKE THAT VOTE !!!!!!!!!!!!

Burnette   April 24th, 2008 3:22 pm ET

Kim   April 24th, 2008 3:22 pm ET

Hey that's my congressman and for months my family, friends and I have been e-mailing and calling him to ask him to support Obama (as well as many other Oregonians). Glad to see he listens to his constituents!

Alice   April 24th, 2008 3:21 pm ET

Many of you say that it is apparent that Hillary is exaggerating/lying when she claims to have the popular vote, or to have won PA by double digits, or to have turned things around, etc. I beg to differ.

It may be apparent to the well-informed (which includes most of the posters on this board) that she is stretching the truth, but not to the average Joe. Joe sees fleeting headlines, like "HILLARY SAYS SHE IS AHEAD IN THE POPULAR VOTE" or "HILLARY WINS PA BY DOUBLE DIGITS" or "HILLARY RAISES $10 MILLION IN ONE DAY" - and doesn't look any further. After all, if it wasn't true, why would it be a headline? The cumulative effect is to create a sense of momentum for Hillary where none exists.

hillaryskank on myspace   April 24th, 2008 3:21 pm ET

WTG! Obama all the way

And Hillary, it was a single digit win in PA and will do nothing to help you win the primary. Pack up and go home. I will be laughing at you until the day I die (and your troll Carville too)

Janet   April 24th, 2008 3:20 pm ET

Fernando   April 24th, 2008 3:19 pm ET

I really hope that Clinton does not get the democratic nomination.
Do we really want to live in a country that establishes a duel monarchy of Bushes and Clintons? Wake up people, and take a chance on changing the country that we all live in. I'm sure all of you Hilary supporters will argue that Obama does not have the experience to lead this country. I ask you, did our current president have the appropriate amount of experience for you when he led our country to war? Lets all turn a new page in this country's history, elect the first african american president and take the initial step towards diminishing all racial inequalities that continue to plague this country today.

A.M. Saqib   April 24th, 2008 3:18 pm ET

Thank you God, that your Superdelagates are hearing you !!!!!

Sam   April 24th, 2008 3:16 pm ET

The math is the following.
Here you got a mad fat cat chasing a smart rat. The rat has a trajectory along the recatangular hyperbola x^{2}-y^{2}=1 and the cat along the line y=x. Plot the graph to see that these two equations does not have a solution, else "0=1", which i think Hillary believes to be true.
This is a problem for Hillary, if she can solve it i will vote for here. You got a 30 feet oily pole. A mad monkey is trying to climb up the pole. At every hop it jumps up by 5 ft and then slips down by 3 ft. How many hops are needed to climb up.

Now bring along some of your superdelegate friends.

OBAMA 2008

kiki   April 24th, 2008 3:15 pm ET

The careful research of the vote/delegates and primary/caucus history of this campaign clearly shows that irregularities and totally undemocratic situations exist. For example, Sen Obama received 320 delegates from a total of 390,238 caucus votes. This translates in 0.0082 delegates per vote. On the other hand Clinton and Obama receive about 0.0010 delegate per primary vote. It means that every caucus vote is worth 8 times more than each primary vote. Totally unfair and non-democratic.
Maybe the "super delegates" should should think about this and bring fairness to the process, the idea of "super delegates" is to correct for these problems, it may or not be very democratic but the caucuses are even less democratic and make no sense since a few activists dominate the "smoke filled" caucus rooms….
CNN you never publish my contributions Why?

Franky   April 24th, 2008 3:15 pm ET

"He and I both had the judgment to oppose the Iraq War from the very beginning."

Ohhh yeah, the Iraq war, huh? Hmmmm, you know, since the Dems like to talk A LOT about how the economy is bad because in some part of the Iraq war, then I wonder who also is to blame??? The Dems or the Reps???? One of the biggest mysteries....

Emily   April 24th, 2008 3:14 pm ET

To: To Late

If this election is GIVEN to Hillary, She will LOSE in November!
There are many you will vote for McCain. I find it very odd that the media is only saying which voting block Barack needs in order to win in November. Get this, Hillary can not win without the Black vote. Trust me......WE Will STAY HOME!

Democrats for McCain......

Peter in Canada   April 24th, 2008 3:14 pm ET

For John Smith 2:01 PM
You are absolutely spot on the mark!!!
I as well have a similar background and it is impossible for her to win the nomination or the General Election it's just that simple.
What some people are forgetting is that all of her perceived margins of victory are within the 40% Democratic base (excluding democratic black voters and new swing voters). Hillary wins that base on a 60/40 split to Obama. However, that 40% is only 20% in a general election so that all her margins decrease by 50%. Obama on the other hand, carries a NET 15% margin among blacks and swing voters (let alone young new voters) that she cannot enjoy unless she is the LEGITIMATE nominee!
At this point in time it is absolutely impossible to be seen by any reasonable person as the legitimate nominee, let alone by blacks and swing voters or the youth vote.

LAD   April 24th, 2008 3:14 pm ET

Way to go...Rep David Wu!

marie   April 24th, 2008 3:14 pm ET

Over the next 2 weeks, We'll probably see a flood of Superdelegates committing to Obama. The math is just not there for Hillary & it's going to make the SD's look politically ridiculous throwing their vote to a loser.

J   April 24th, 2008 3:14 pm ET

Another superdelegate chooses hope over fear!

Hillary, won't you join us? We need your endorsement too!

OCA   April 24th, 2008 3:13 pm ET

No one said it would be easy to break a 20 year quasie monarchy hold on the whitehouse by two families one of which is striving for another 8. Our campaign is not about win at any price, do what ever it takes to win, and if need be, destroy your opponent in the process. Make Promise’s you know you can not keep to win. Real change means just that. A new appraoch, a new fresh set of ideas, a new person, someone who can bring us all together not tear us apart. MY TOP 10 REASONS WHY IT IS ONLY "WHEN" NOT "IF' OBAMA WINS:

10. Obama has won more delegates, more states and more votes

9. Obama as well as the Clintons signed up and agreed on the rules up front.

8. The Clinton strategy appears to be "if you can't win change the rules" WRONG! The rules, the math, the calendar do not lie. She has a few more weeks and a few more contests left. Even though the math does not look good, she has the right, just as Huckaberry did to continue on until Obama has 2025 delegates. (Even though that would mean she would need to win over 80%)

7. Hillary Clinton claims experience is her key attribute, the camapign to date is not a very good reflection of her managent skills. In spite of a incredible lead on every level a year ago, with all the backing she is now trying to re position herself as the anti estblishment candidate!

6. She spent more on her top advisors that she has fired than Obama has on his whole staff

5. Destroying the oposition may have workd in the past its not either change or for that matter a solution for how we go forward

4. Hillary polorises she does not bring people together. if her negative rating goes much lower it will be lower than Bush's!

3. Sooner or later Hillary and Bill must decide is it all about them (win at any cost) or about the will of the party.

2. We live in a republic not a monachy. Do we want 28 years and two families in the whitehouse? Is that change?

1. Talking points will not change the reality. The rules, the math, the calandar does not lie and can not be changed. Obama will have won more pledged delegates, more states and more votess. He should expect the remaining superdelegates to vote for him accordingly. They will.

David D Kollie   April 24th, 2008 3:11 pm ET

A Demoncratic system of governance does not obligue anyone to vote for a candidate becuase of impacts that candidate's spouse has made in past administration.

It is system which allow voters to choose capable and competant Americans to exercise their candidancies and capabilities in the White House.

Obama is demonstrating such capability and competancy throughtout his campaign that why he's getting such endorsement regardless of the criticism against him being an elite and out of touch.

Obama's campaign has not owe and is not owing. His campaign is able to rally people from every race to gather together in support of one cause.

This is what other supperdelegates are seeing in Obama that is why they are going after him with endorsement.

James Carville is naive in his understanding of demoncracy therefore he wants for all Bill Clintons in 1992 to 2000 to support Hillary Clinton.

Susan MO   April 24th, 2008 3:09 pm ET

Another delegate making a mistake. They are not thinking about how Obama rudely spoke to the people of Pennsylvania. Does that say Pennsylvania is not important??

Wake up Super delegates!

Strong for Hillary :)

NickSanDiego   April 24th, 2008 3:08 pm ET

LOL Hillary people saying that this endorsement doesn't matter.( he is a superd...oh nevermind!!! LOL

I am NOT going to explain how it works AGAIN!

You Can't make this stuff up folks LOL

May   April 24th, 2008 3:07 pm ET

Congratulations Wu. True leadership is about good judgement. Hillary has shown over and over again that she has bad judgement. She is more motivated by selfishness rather than the interest of the country.

For Hillary in Denver   April 24th, 2008 3:07 pm ET

It's funny that whenever a superdelegate endorese Obama it gets a whole section devoted to it. However, I know that many superdelegates have come out recently for Hillary. Where's the special section on them?

Andrew in OR   April 24th, 2008 3:02 pm ET

Clinton is going to get stomped in all the urban areas. Her best bet in the Coast where we have a huge number of Seniors. Wu did the right thing as Portland (as well as Eugene and Salem) are going to go for Obama by large margins. At a rally here in Eugene he filled the largest indoor arena in the city. Bill and Chelsea had a hard time filling a high school gym. Oregon is an educated state and do not like being lied to.

Newman   April 24th, 2008 3:00 pm ET

Never owned a business.
Been in public office for a very short time.

You know, maybe I should question myself, Obama sound perfect!

Amazing people... READ!!!

Status QuO.   April 24th, 2008 2:59 pm ET

Good for Obama. However, did they have to use the tiniest font avaiable at the end of the story to mention Hillary's superdelegates???

Lance   April 24th, 2008 2:58 pm ET

Am I the only one who thinks it takes zero courage to oppose the Iraq war when you are a State senator. I mean I ooposed the Iraq war from the start but because i didnt do anything significant to stop it can I actually claim the high road.

Just Miss   April 24th, 2008 2:57 pm ET

Yes – Only 298 delegates to go.....Let's get this nomination and move on :) I am done with debates between Clinton and Obama. I know where both of them stand and I don't need to hear them debate any longer.....Let's go get McCain and win the White House back...

lynette   April 24th, 2008 2:57 pm ET

The joke is on you...hee hee when Obama wins the nomination! Americans will unite, just keep on watching...it's coming, it's coming in 40 days!

eddie n. powellnye   April 24th, 2008 2:56 pm ET

IT IS ABOUT TIME FOR THOSE THAT CALL THEMSELVES HONEST POLITICANS TO GET ON THE TRAIN. IT IS NOT GOING TO BE LONG NOW BEFORE THE TRAIN LEAVES THE STATION. I THINK WU'S ENDORSEMENT IS A PROPER ENDING TO THE CARVILLE MOB. PERSONALLY SPEAKING, THIS THING SHOULD HAVE BEEN OVER WITH 3 WEKS AGO. IT WOULD HAVE BEEN FAIR AFTER THE MATH
WAS DONE. MATH DON'T LIE, PEOPLE DO. HRC LIED AND PILED ON TOP OF THAT LIE. i JUST CAN'T UNDERSTAND WHY, WHEN ALL THE WORLD KNOWS, SHE IS ALLOWED TO GET AWAY WITH GETTING HER ADULT KID TO LIE ALSO. HER KID WAS OLD ENOUGH TO KNOW GUN FIRE AND CONTINUED TO LIE. BILL AND HIS OFF THE WALL COMMENTS AND EAR PULLING HAS GOTTEN THE DEMS IN A HARD TO DEFEND POSITION. ONE THING I CAN SAY, WU LIKE MYSELF KNOW THAT MCBUSH AND THE REPUBLICAN PARTY GOT A UPHILL BATTLE WHEN IT COMES TO MR. OBAMA. THE 527S BETTER TAKE NOTICE TO WHAT THEIR HOUSE HAS BUILD OVER THE MANY YEARS OF LYING LIKE THE BILLARYS. A WISE MAN ONCE SAID - ' A . WU BUILT WITH A LIE BURNS WITH A LIE'. I NEVER HAD ANY APPLICATION FOR THAT SAYING UNTIL NOW. THE 'HOUSE OF CLINTONS' IS FALLING AND
WU IS JUST SOME MORE FUEL TO THE FIRE.

candoo   April 24th, 2008 2:54 pm ET

Obama supporters are always the first to jump on the blogging bandwagon, in droves. Why is that? Could it be that you have something to prove? You can talk all you want and say anything you want but the truth of the matter is, those of us who support Hillary Clinton don't really care what you think of her.

We will see what happens in August, won't we?

Even if he takes the nomination unfairly (because he is standing in the way of the florida and michigan voters being heard) Obama will not be our next president.

Hillary Clinton is by far the strongest candidate in this race.
But if not HIllary, then Mccain. You can count on that.

Obama is the one   April 24th, 2008 2:54 pm ET

Rep. Wu – welcome aboard. Good to see another strong democrat stand up and say he's tired of Hillary's negative, divisive politics.

Just one of many Oregonians who "get it" and will let the rest of the nation know that Oregon is "Obama Country" on May 20.

syed nusrath   April 24th, 2008 2:52 pm ET

Good news, Happy news, Joyous news. A bold step in right direction. Hillary is not Clinton. She has come this far only because of Bill Clinton. I bet Monica is getting jeolous. Hillary Rodhom would not have gotten even one State. Obama is the man of this century as Bill Clinton was the man of 20th century. There comes a great man from every nation every race every religion at least once. This time it is no one but Obama.

Tom   April 24th, 2008 2:52 pm ET

So.............what is this guy "clinging" to Mr. Richardson? Possibly an unrealistic belief that the guy he's supporting can actually get to the White House? Maybe race? I guess when you're on Obama's side, everybody has to cling to something............

Rob   April 24th, 2008 2:51 pm ET

I love watching Hillary Haters whine like its gonna make a bit of difference..her win in PA means nothing. And to all the Hillary supporters still talking that "we'll vote McCain" trash. Do you think for one minute that Obama supporters will support Hillary??...

Getting tired of this   April 24th, 2008 2:50 pm ET

To NY (comment at 1:29) and all others who respond to these stories that are so nicely coming int at a rate of 1 or 2 per day, there is a difference between ENDORSMENTS and SUPER DELEGATE COMMITMENTS.

Yes, endorsements don't count for much. Super D's on the other hand count for more than anything else right now.

let wait and see how she will lose handily in oregon all i pray is for people to open their eyes and see the true colour of hrc she and her family cant stop the change that americans want, someone that says loybist represent the real american, then i wonder how some fools are still voting for her when if she get elected lobyist cant allow the univ health care, gas price, etc.. to happen, and some fools are still voting for her. since the history of all the president that lobyist represent have any thing change. open ur eyes hillary fools.

They (SD) are finally making choices. Maybe they will all come out of where they are hidding and decide, NOW, who they are endorsing. We really need to end this thing before it is at a point where either one stand a chance against McCain in Nov.

Thank you David!!!

Oregon is for Obama!

Richard   April 24th, 2008 2:45 pm ET

Who cares.!

Go Hillary 2008!

Emeka, Florida   April 24th, 2008 2:45 pm ET

For all i care, Hillary is on an ego trip. Obama already has an unsurmountable lead in pledged delegates. Even if she wins the remaining 9 contests, she'll still be behind in the delegate count. People all forget that even the Super delegates can change their minds, and i see no way Clinton can win this fairly.
Its better the Superdelegates come together now and salvage any hopes left for the Democratic party.

Woman Of Color   April 24th, 2008 2:44 pm ET

Thank you Wu!

Obama for President!

Yes we can!   April 24th, 2008 2:43 pm ET

Oh Wolf, please have John do the magic board today.....so the clinton campaign can see that right now if you include the votes from these states, he still leads with over 100,000 in the popular vote (florida obama count and the uncommitted michigan count) and with NC coming and he'll probably will half of the remaining states, she will still be behind…..her camaign staff needs to tell her this, so she can come up with another strategy to "steal" the nomination…..

Peter from Oregon   April 24th, 2008 2:41 pm ET

Rick in Oregon

If you drive around any population base in Oregon (I live in Portland) you will literally see 100 Obama yard signs and bumper stickers to 1 for Clinton. Call it a "yard poll" but the sentiment here is strongly for Obama.

Mike   April 24th, 2008 2:41 pm ET

I have gathered some numbers based on the democratic primary to show what will happen in November if Obama is the nominee.

The democratic primary is different as it shares delegates based on percentage but in the general election it is winner takes all in each state. Each state won is that many delegates to winning the overall count. So if we treat the democratic primary just like the general election this is what we are looking at against McCain.

I have taken each state that has won by Obama or Clinton and given all the delegates of that state to the majority winner. I even gave Obama all the upcoming states and made him the winner giving him the delegates from them. I did not include Florida or Michigan to avoid any argument. This includes Guam and others that are counted in the democratic primary. This is only actually won states and future states given to Obama:

Obama won 37 "states"
Hillary won 17 "states"

However in a general election setting:

Obama delegate count: 1486
Hillary delegate count: 1750

If you count Florida and Michigan which Hillary won and polls show that even if Obama campaigned in those states Hillary would have won them at that time:

Obama delegate count: 1486
Hillary delegate count: 2118

If we gave Florida to Obama and Michigan to Hillary as polls suggest a primary today would give them:

Obama delegate count: 1692
Hillary delegate count: 1907

The bottom line is that Hillary has won in a general election model based on primaries of the democratic party and even giving Obama all the next primary states coming up. The reason Hillary won is she won all the big states practically? These states are historically won by the Republican party as to why Bush beat Kerry in 2004. Therefore if Obama cannot win the big states that Republicans tend to win he has no chance against McCain in the general election. Hillary has the only chance of being a democratic president in 2008.

So do you want a Republican in office or do you want a Democrat? The choice is clear who is more electable in November.

wolfsbane   April 24th, 2008 2:41 pm ET

The tide's not Turning, that's a TIDAL WAVE. Go Obama!

Yes we can!   April 24th, 2008 2:41 pm ET

The clinton campaign needs to stop crying foul with Michigan and Florida....people do the math....right now if you include the votes from these states, he still leads with over 100,000 in the popular vote and with NC coming and he'll probably will half of the remaining states, she will still be behind.....her camaign staff needs to tell her this, so she can come up with another strategy to "steal" the nomination.....

People like you and comments like yours are exactly why this country has lost its status in the global interaction. Poor judgement on your part but I guess poor judgement is what most Clinton supports have in common.

Then what does this whole argument from Jason say about how democrats have voted the past 30 years... you are equally responsible for poor judgement, so stop sounding ilke you are better... we are AMERICANS you elitist snobs.

Jay   April 24th, 2008 2:40 pm ET

Obama is going to let a lot of people down when he does not win. He has made so many under the table deals that its sad.

Carl   April 24th, 2008 2:39 pm ET

Also, I'd like to add many of you saying stuff like...

"We thank you for your support" or "you have joined us..."

I'm sorry, but OBAMA is running for pres, not any of you people. You can't even distinguish yourselves from Obama, so GET OVER YOURSELVES.

Vince Los Angeles, CA   April 24th, 2008 2:38 pm ET

While Hillary runs around screeching lies about how she is "ahead in the popular vote", Obama has picked up 3 Superdelgates in the last 24 hours. Despite every effort on Hillary's part to draw Obama into a knife fight, he has run an clean, organized, efficient, POSITIVE campaign. If Hillary gets the nomination it will be a sad commentary on how many uninformed, uneducated, ignorant people decide how America is governed.

Carl   April 24th, 2008 2:38 pm ET

Please, Obama supporters, explain to me why you choose him using his policies only.

I doubt many of you know what I'm talking about anyway, so prove me wrong.

skylark   April 24th, 2008 2:38 pm ET

Not all old people are Clinton supporters. Some of us care about the future. Some of us remember the horrible scandals and humiliation the Clintons put us through. Some of us remember being a laughing stock in the world because of them. Some of us know it was not strength for Hillary to stay with Bill when his multiple affairs were disclosed. It was weakness. Or maybe she just wanted to keep riding his soiled coat tails to the presidency. I am 69 years old. I remember everything. So does the GOP. And do not think they will be as retiscent as Mr Obama to drag out all the dirty laundry. There is much much more of it. Corrupt is a nice word.

Jason - KY   April 24th, 2008 2:38 pm ET

I guess you are new to this country or to politics. The war started two years before he became a Senator. What cave have you been living in for the last decade?

Josephine   April 24th, 2008 2:37 pm ET

Welcome aboard Rep.WU,You made an excelent choice.

The kind of politics that the desperate Clinton's are playing is so much like the Republicans.

Hillary should let the Republicans do their own dirty work for them selves.

After all of the low tactics that they are using, should she gets the nomination, it's going to be (PRESIDENT Mc CAINE)

joseph   April 24th, 2008 2:34 pm ET

The media have to stop playing this kind of politics. It seems there're supporting hillary otherwise how can they say that she won with 10%.Who is doing that mathematics? For GODS sake that is not 10%. Meanwhile i bow for Rep. WU!!!

mrpaust   April 24th, 2008 2:34 pm ET

Wu is an enlightened Democrat. By which we mean one who cares more about the health of his Party than propping up a family Dynasty that is drawing its last breath from the tired politics of yesterday.

OBAMA 08!!!

Herman A. Nkwate   April 24th, 2008 2:34 pm ET

Obama needs just about 290 delegates to close the deal. So the remaining super delegates better join him. If not when he is finally President, he will not smile back at them. No place for Clinton's supper delegates in Obama's government.

Jason - KY   April 24th, 2008 2:34 pm ET

Through your written words you are showing your dislike towards people that don't look like you. Were I'm from we call that a character flaw, you might want to work on that.

patrick b   April 24th, 2008 2:33 pm ET

"Great to hear you opposed the war, Wu. . .now, why don't you ask your boy why he did nothing to stop it once he was in the Senate. Oh, that's right, he was busy running for president. What a guy." While Hillary backed Bush all the way? Funny coming from a Hillary supporter.

Johnny   April 24th, 2008 2:33 pm ET

I'm glad there are people who are not swayed by the Hillary camp's negative spin. It makes me laugh how she can do something and turn around and accuse Obama of the same thing. He could have opened a can of worms with regards to the Whitewater scandal or any of her convicted felons, but nope, he's taking the high road.
She's willing to say and do anything to win no matter the cost. She'll take Obama's messages of "yes we can" and "change", etc and act as if it was her idea. She'll lie about things she's said and done and weasel out of it with words like "I mispoke". Who says that? She lied. I would have had so much respect for her if she just admitted it. It was the last straw for me.

Last year I was looking forward to Hillary being the first woman president. Now, through her own actions I hope that she never gets the chance. Go Obama!!!

D   April 24th, 2008 2:33 pm ET

I am a new voter, of hispanic decent, female over 35 if you listen to the polls I’m supposed to be a Clinton voter but unlike some people I actually have a mind of my own and one thing is very clear to me, If barack obama was the one who had no chance of catching up in the pledged delegates, who had lost most states, who had no chance of catching up in the popular votes but tried to add Florida and Michigan to justify being able to lie to voters and say he is winning, I can guarantee you that he would have been laughed and ridiculed out of town and his political career would have been over. Yet, because it is hillary Clinton doing all of this it seems to be ok, it seems to be allowed which is very disappointing to a new voter like myself.
Why are the democratic leaders so afraid of the Clintons? Why is the press so afraid of the Clintons? I expected to see headlines saying “hillary Clinton lying again” I expected to see a letter from the DNC clearly stating that the rules of the democratic party is that the candidate is elected based on the delegates and also making it clear that florida and michigan’s votes cannot be used to try to manipulate and lie to voters. Yet nothing from the DNC and the press is playing along with the Clintons and helping them to propagate this lie. I am very disappointed and plan to stay home if the candidacy is handed over to the Clintons.

ShannonL   April 24th, 2008 2:32 pm ET

I love it. The closer Obama gets to the nomination, the closer McCain gets to the White House.

He's not ready. He is going to get ripped apart.

Kenneth M   April 24th, 2008 2:32 pm ET

WU-HU! THAT IS THE WAY TO DO IT. SLOW AND STEADY. HILLARY IS GOING DOWN IN LURCHES. OBAMA IS GROWING STEADY.

California Lady   April 24th, 2008 2:31 pm ET

I am a huge Obama supporter because I truly believe that he will be the best President that this country has ever seen.
I am amazed though, that people continue to vote for Hillary when they know she can not catch Obama in Delegates or the popular vote or States won so far.
I heard an interesting comment from a Pundit on the news yesterday saying that the only way she can win is by destroying Senator Obama and making this race really ugly.
I wouldn't put these kind of tactics past them. If anyone saw Bill Richardson and James Carville on Larry King last night, well, Bill Richardson said it best when he said that the Clinton's think the throne is theirs and will do anything to take it back because they think they are entitled.
James Carville is a snake and gets away with comments about Obama running and hiding from debates and running from wanting Floriday and Michigan to re-vote. I can't believe the media don't call him on this or allow Obama supporters to respond.
Obama does not run from debates and he will seat the delegates from those two States but it must be done in a fair way.
Believe me, Hillary certainly would not want them counted if she had lost the votes. She is so transparent in hos devious and what a liar she is.
She is only staying in this race because her campaign is so much in debt, so keep sending her your hard earned money foolish people while she leaves her millions in the bank. Wake up Ameria

He dosen't have her husband-Bill Clinton!
He dosen't have her Daugther!
He dosen't have The Machine behind him!
He is more of a Blue collar worker then her (109 Mil!)
He only has Keith Oberman and Maddox trying not to spin every fart and bupp!
He not a white person over 60 years old!
He did not win the big states!
Why does he need to put her away?
SHE IS THE BIG DOG IN THE FIGHT!
SHE IS THE ONE BEST FOR THE JOB!

THE FACT THAT HE IS GOOD SPEAKER AND CAN CAPTIVATE AN AUDIANCE DOES NOT IMPRESS ME MUCH. THERE HAVE BEEN PEOPLE IN THE PAST THAT HAVE UNFORTUNATLY DONE THE SAME AND THE WORLD SUFFERED FOR IT. QUESTIONS NEED TO BE ANSWERED ABOUT SEN. OBAMA NOW, NOT WHEN IT'S TO LATE. HIS FIRST FUND RAISER WAS GIVEN BY A MAN WHO 'S ORGANISATION TOOK CREDIT FOR BOMBING HIS OWN COUNTRY AND HE WAS QUOTED AS SAYING HE WISHED THEY'D DONE MORE. HE IS INDEPTED TO SYRIAN BORN AND RAISED TONY REZKO RE HIS HOUSE DEAL A MAN CHARGED WITH AMONGS OTHER THINGS MONEY LAUDERING.( I'D CHECK HIS CAMAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS) THROW IN REV WRIGHT AND FARRAKAN AND YOU HAVE TO WONDER IS THIS JUST COINSIDENCE OR A PATERN.

Monica   April 24th, 2008 2:07 pm ET

No Jim they are finally making a decision based on fact. Her win in PA did not give her enough to overtake his numbers of pledged delegates. Her win in PA was not a big win. She threw plenty at him and it did not bring him down enough for her to take over. PA only proved that she has no chance.
Your comment about him buying him. Why would you say that? Because he is raising lots of money. Hillary raised and spent more money than him consistently in this contest until he started winning contest after contest. That is when he started making significantly more money then her. So how did the shoe in spend so much and still lose?

Peter from Oregon   April 24th, 2008 2:06 pm ET

Rep Wu – Thank you for echoing the overwhelming call of your constituancy here in Oregon.

The steady momentum of super delegates to Obama has not made the news. That is without doubt the truth.
However it seems prcisely the point that shoud be making the news. Come to think of it. It is the only argument Clinton has for staying in the race and that is to get the attention of the superdelegates. YET IT IS NOT MAKING THE NEWS.
Do you know WHY.

IT WILL NOT BE BENEFICIAL TO BARRACK OBAMA> So let us BELITTLE it.

Wayne   April 24th, 2008 2:06 pm ET

I ran the calculation using CNNs very own numbers. Hillary got 54.6% of the vote and Obama got 45.3%..the difference is 9.3%. The TRUTH is Hillary got a single digit victory. 6 weeks ago BEFORE J. Wright and Bitter gate she was up by 20%. Obama winds up losing by just 9% and CNN and Clinton are spinning it into some sort of monumental victory. I knew she would do this. She is dishonest but it doesnt change the fact that Obama will be the nominee.

I noticed John King wanted to make it seem like Obama only gets black votes. Not true. If he only got black votes he would get no more than 8% of the vote. THe truth is under 50 you vote Obama..over 50, Clinton. Its a generational, not racial divide.

W PA   April 24th, 2008 2:05 pm ET

Clinton and her campain are in denial...no other explanation... if the shoe was on the other foot, she would have made sure Obama was out after the 11 straight wins. As for the endorsements, they say it does nothing however, the delegates are in his camp and that's what counts...

Bubba   April 24th, 2008 2:05 pm ET

Seth (FL)   April 24th, 2008 2:04 pm ET

Excellent!

Now, if only older white voters could just come to terms with a black man in office, Obama could actually deliver that knockout punch.

As long as we have white people afraid to vote for a black man (and afraid to admit their racial bias in exit polling), it will be a much tougher summer for Obama than it ought to be.

By the way, I am white, without a college education, and am not affluent. I still support Obama because he represents CHANGE. I'll take sound judgment and the ability to unite over political experience ANY DAY.

OBAMA 2008

jaci in oregon   April 24th, 2008 2:04 pm ET

BILLY, you have your candidates mixed up. obama is the brown gentleman who wants the jobs BACK IN america. the old white guy is the one who will continue supporting his big-business buddies by outsourcing jobs... the white-collar workers are next, and it's already starting!

Bring it on   April 24th, 2008 2:04 pm ET

WARNING Hilary there is a SUNAMI coming you might want to run to the hills.

Roger B from Portland, OR   April 24th, 2008 2:04 pm ET

Go Wu! You the man!

Ron   April 24th, 2008 2:03 pm ET

PERSONALLY I HOPE THAT EIGHTER CLINTON OR THE REPUBLICAN PARTY ENLIGHTEN THE PEOPLE OF THE USA. REGARDING OBAMA. THE FACT THAT HE IS GOOD SPEAKER AND CAN CAPTIVATE AN AUDIANCE DOES NOT IMPRESS ME MUCH. THERE HAVE BEEN PEOPLE IN THE PAST THAT HAVE UNFORTUNATLY DONE THE SAME AND THE WORLD SUFFERED FOR IT. QUESTIONS NEED TO BE ANSWERED ABOUT SEN. OBAMA NOW, NOT WHEN IT'S TO LATE. HIS FIRST FUND RAISER WAS GIVEN BY A MAN WHO 'S ORGANISATION TOOK CREDIT FOR BOMBING HIS OWN COUNTRY AND HE WAS QUOTED AS SAYING HE WISHED THEY'D DONE MORE. HE IS INDEPTED TO SYRIAN BORN AND RAISED TONY REZKO RE HIS HOUSE DEAL A MAN CHARGED WITH AMONGS OTHER THINGS MONEY LAUDERING.( I'D CHECK HIS CAMAIGN CONTRIBUTIONS) THROW IN REV WRIGHT AND FARRAKAN AND YOU HAVE TO WONDER IS THIS JUST COINSIDENCE OR A PATERN. HOW DOES A REASONABLY INTELIGENT PERSON MIGRATE TO THESE TYPE OF PEOPLE

JM   April 24th, 2008 2:03 pm ET

I prefer Hillary but I also want a democrat president, I don't think that Obama will win against McCain. The sad part about Obama winning beating Clinton , is that once Obama loses against McCain, theres is no going back......

sandy   April 24th, 2008 2:03 pm ET

I don't know how anyone can say CNN is favoring Obama when I see a plea from Hillary for money as soon as you log on to this CNN political page. Whats up with that? Did she pay for it or are you in her debt also. I thought she was out of money, or is that more of her lies.

D in NM   April 24th, 2008 2:03 pm ET

Lets see Obama's popular vote when voters stay home in November..
All Aboard!!

Bridgette   April 24th, 2008 2:03 pm ET

If she is not counting caucus states just say she is the nominee she has down played every state he has won. What is the like 30+ states and the people in those states they are just going to what say oh its okay that you said we didn't matter we will vote for you. Even the states that he has lost he has always been gracious and thanked the people who has supported them their.

She is a nasty person and right now even if some of the states that she has won he is ahead of her in the polls now. Because the more she stays in this race she is showing her true self and her true colors. And you know what it is not pretty.

MM/FL   April 24th, 2008 2:03 pm ET

Billy,
I think you are confused. Let me help you!
Rep. Wu endorsed Obama, not Hillary!!!!!!!!!!

John, London, England   April 24th, 2008 2:02 pm ET

Great news! Now, come on, all the other superdelegates: for the good of your party, the US and the world, get off the fence and back the winner There is no point in holding out in the hope of favors from a Clinton administration – it just isn't going to happen!

Dale Wise   April 24th, 2008 2:02 pm ET

>>quote: Billy April 24th, 2008 1:30 pm ET
>>Does he think Obama will outsourse more to China?

Wow, what a surprise – blatant racism coming through in Clinton supporters' statements. Who would have known?

D in NM   April 24th, 2008 2:02 pm ET

BOO to Mr. WU; short statured and short sighted. Is he not watching the news and does he not see that OBAMA voted to allow Oregon's land to be "pilaged" by the oil and gas industry? Mr. Wu is unifocused with just the war on his mind; what about the economy, the national security, the environment, green jobs, healthcare and education. Thats what is so wrong with these superdelegates for Obama; they are mezmerized and not living in American reality! McCain and the epubs are creating all types of Willie Horton style smear ads on Obama . McCain and the repubmachine will Crush Obama..
also, can we say the word"sexist!!!, Mr Wu??...

ROB HUNTER   April 24th, 2008 2:02 pm ET

They won't take this away from us. There will be No voting irregularieties when it comes to the superdelegates. No machines to breakdown like they did in Philly. No voters to turn away. Hillary can't run and she can't hide. The funny business is about to be shut DOWN!!!!!!

OBAMA 08 – 12

Dave in NJ   April 24th, 2008 2:01 pm ET

Way to go Wu. More supers should be as brave, instead of being intimidated by the Clintons. As for Billy, your comment was sad, perhaps Hillary can use it in her attack of the superdelegates that have steadily been joining team Obama, since Tues. of this week. That is after she won PA. WOW They are politically smart, they will join the team now in droves.

Boomer   April 24th, 2008 2:01 pm ET

Does this mean Obama has won? Does it? Huh? Huh??

jaci in oregon   April 24th, 2008 2:01 pm ET

yaaaaaaayyyyyy, oregon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

obama will crush hillary here; well, in the portland area, not so sure about some of our very RED rural areas. but even they have to see now how badly the repubs have messed up their lives and livelihoods.

a vote for a repub is a vote against american citizens!!!

John Smith   April 24th, 2008 2:01 pm ET

As someone in statistics and probability, and an active supporter of Hillary, I have come to conclude that Hillary simply cannot get this nomination. Her chances decrease after each major vote, including PA. Therefore, I can no longer waste my vote or money on Hillary. I care more about the party than the individual. To vote for Hillary is to vote for a major "split" in the democractic party. My conscience will not allow me do so!!!

Overall, I also concluded that "folks" in small towns and states are "smarter and more educated" than folks in the BIG states!! Hillary is from NY–

NY, PA, FL, CA etc. (except TX), continue to amaze us! Just look at the "wisdom" of the smaller states– Indianna, NC, Iowa etc.– . Left to them, this madness would have been over with before now!!

It's time for these Superdelegates to step up to the plate and get Hillary out of the game before she and/or Bill gaffe themselves another 1/2 dozen times!
The Clinton's have been absolutely PATHETIC throughout this campaign! They cannot possibly run the country when they can't even run the campaign that was supposed to be a "coronation".

sabrina01   April 24th, 2008 1:59 pm ET

Ok if Obama loses the next five races by ten points that will give him about 66 delegates and Clinton 80 and he'll have 2025 on the fifth state.........IT IS OVER

no bandwagon   April 24th, 2008 1:59 pm ET

Some of us will never jump on a bandwagon.

We know where that leads.

Just look at Italy and Germany in the 1930s when they blindly followed their charismatic leaders who inspired the youth with talk of hope and promises of change.

I love my country. NO to Obama.

This is a presidential election- not an audition for American Idol.

vic nashville,Tn   April 24th, 2008 1:59 pm ET

Shame on you CNN
There is news About Obama’s Adviser he told about white color voters and New Gallup tracking poll Why CNN not posting these news

End is coming   April 24th, 2008 1:59 pm ET

Remaining delegates for Obama (2024-1724 = 300)...
Hillary still needs more than 450.
This race is almost decided

Yes we can

truth_hurts   April 24th, 2008 1:59 pm ET

should hillary win the nomination she will get my support even though i am for obama, However, i will not give her one red cent of my money, not after i heard the clintons made 100 million, look this is the deal hillary if you want the nomination bad enough.. do a mitt romney and take a bite of your own money, with barack is different, he and michelle only made close to a million in income. americans don't let the clinton machine use you, at first she started with her big corp donations, but noow she is playing obamas game with the small donors, at least he deserves it for being a good sport. and i will encourage all democrats to come together regarldless of how dirty the clintons played, just to get our troops back and end this war, thats what's important here not our egos.

he loses Penn.... gains three Superdelegates and 42 supporters who did support Edwards.

A fantastic week for him.

The 9 point Penn. loss doesn't affect the campaign at all.

She can't win.

I wonder   April 24th, 2008 1:48 pm ET

Where what are all these endorsers going to do when Obama does not get the Presidency if he is the nominee. Obama will never beat McCain. By the time November comes around he will be toast.

Jodie a white gal from Idaho   April 24th, 2008 1:47 pm ET

Lynda   April 24th, 2008 1:45 pm ET

This is a smart move by another superdelegate!

It's a good thing that he his not counting the popular vote in the same manner as Hillary.

Boy she lies, and now she is trying to put her
"Voo-Doo" math on the front pages.

It pleases me that the congressman from my state, the one that represents my district, actually listened to his voters. Oregon by the way, regardless of Clintons efforts here will vote Obama. Regardless of any polls that may come in, the people here in my district have made their voice very clear by a margin of +19 in favor of Obama.

We won't be coming back.

All the superdelegates can not change the minds of the silent majority who will speak in NOV if the nomination is given to Obama.

Gov. of OK., 3 Congressman in NC and one in Oregon. Not to mention one last week in IN.

The tide is turning. The coalition is building.

Thats 3 new superdelegates for Obama to 1 new superdelagate for Hillary since the PA primary. Doesn't look like the tide is turning in your favor Hillary.

Michael Lorton, Virginia   April 24th, 2008 1:37 pm ET

A penny here.....a penny there........and in the end you will have a significant amount of delegates.........it is almost like the political delegates are "sliently sneaking away" slowly to support Obama.

uc   April 24th, 2008 1:37 pm ET

I just want to clearify that MSnbc morning Jeo and co Jeo's are just election gossipers who, have no work than to sit on the couch and try to witch obama.

I dont like them

Barack the Vote in RI   April 24th, 2008 1:37 pm ET

.....and many more will follow. At last, the superdelegates are stepping up. Let's FINALLY send this lying, cheating, manipulative, desperate "woman" back to AR/DC/NY/PA or where ever she claims she's from this week. Haven't we had enough.

Florida For Obama   April 24th, 2008 1:36 pm ET

3 of 4 superdelegates to commit post-Pennsylvania have gone to Obama.

In other words, Pennsylvania hasn't changed the dynamics of the race at all.

He sees that if you are 'bought' by the special interest and lobbyist you have NO control because you are being controlled ($800,000.00)
Hint hint sounds like Hillary did not oppose the war!

Gallup Poll Daily tracking shows a narrowing of the gap in Democratic nomination preferences between Barack Obama (49%) and Hillary Clinton (44%), with Obama maintaining an advantage in the first results to include some post-Pennsylvania primary interviewing.

What does the United States call other countries who change their rules in the middle of an election to favor a particular canidate. Corrupt. That is exactly what Hillary Clinton and her team want to do. Change the rules in the middle of an election. According to the official rules this election is finished and Obama is the winner. Therefore, no more need for another debate so they can team up on Obama 3 to 1 again.

I know Hillary won't quit until she is knocked out all the way, so Obama please knock her out. Give her a good solid knock out punch that lands her sprawling on the ground. Then give her a couple of good kicks to make sure she doesn't get back up. We're getting sick of her and her buddies nasty mouths.

How strange these people going for Obama the day after he loses another big key state that will determine the election outcome in November.

Is Obama buying these people?

Jee wiz, they just keep coming over to the Obama camp. Isn't this like his tenth this week alone. Wonder why??????????

Billy   April 24th, 2008 1:30 pm ET

Does he think Obama will outsourse more to China?

Accountant Guy   April 24th, 2008 1:30 pm ET

Thank You David Wu, you are a very wise and informed man! It looks like the superdelegates are starting to see through all of the lies and back the best candidate. Keep up the good work Barack.

Obama '08

Cynthia   April 24th, 2008 1:30 pm ET

Congratulations Senator Obama. Thanks to Rep. Wu for the endorsement from all the people who believe in Senator Obama.

NY   April 24th, 2008 1:29 pm ET

Representative Wu, if you have notice in the past none of the endorsement matters!!!!!!!!!

Billy   April 24th, 2008 1:29 pm ET

Does he think Obama will outsource more to China?

Stacy Clarks, TX   April 24th, 2008 1:28 pm ET

WELCOME TO THE WINNING SIDE SIR!!!!

PS: I wish people will sto saying Obama should have put this away!!

HE DID WHEN HE WON 11 STRAIGHT CONTESTS!! AND PICKED UP SO MUCH DELEGATES THAT IT IS MATHEMATICALLY IMPOSSIBLE FOR HER TO WIN (imagine if the roles were swtiched, there will be LOTS of pressure for Obama to drop out)

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

Jordan - San Marcos TX   April 24th, 2008 1:28 pm ET

I hope a sense of urgency about the future of the Democratic party propels more supers do to the same very quickly.

Nancy   April 24th, 2008 1:28 pm ET

Thank you Rep. Wu, You are a very smart man

O8AMA

John Smith   April 24th, 2008 1:28 pm ET

I guess "folks" in small towns and states are "smarter and more educated" than folks in the BIG states!! Hillary is from NY–

NY, PA, FL, CA etc. (except TX), continue to amaze us! Just look at the "wisdom" of the smaller states– Indianna, NC, Iowa etc.– . Left to them, this madness would have been over with before now!!

Johnson   April 24th, 2008 1:27 pm ET

Watch the Hillary supporters show up and be like "THIS IS NEWS??" CNN is so biased!! they only cover Obama and not Clinton.

I think Obama was right when he said people were bitter. He was probably referring to Clinton supporters who are bitter because their candidate is losing.

Niky   April 24th, 2008 1:27 pm ET

Go Obama!

MSL   April 24th, 2008 1:27 pm ET

Excellent, thank you Rep. Wu!

OBAMA '08!!!!!!!!!!

Lawrence   April 24th, 2008 1:27 pm ET

And yet another Super for Obama. Lets keep them coming because it is time to end this race and send the Clintons packing.

Dylan   April 24th, 2008 1:27 pm ET

Welcome aboard Rep. Wu!

Obama has now picked up more superdelegates since Hillary's "big win" in PA.... what does that tell you about what party leaders are thinking?

Independent   April 24th, 2008 1:26 pm ET

Woo-hoo! Or should I say Wu-hoo!

Welcome to the team.
