The Iowa representative announced his support for Obama Wednesday.

WASHINGTON (CNN) – Iowa Rep. Bruce Braley will endorse Illinois Sen. Barack Obama for president Wednesday, the fifth Democratic superdelegate to choose sides in less than 24 hours, an Obama aide confirms to CNN.

Braley, a first-term congressman who represents an eastern district that hugs the Illinois border, had originally backed John Edwards in the race for the Democratic nomination. He joins fellow Iowan and Democratic National Committee member Richard Machacek in publicly declaring his support for Obama this week. Machacek and Kentucky Rep. Ben Chandler both said Tuesday they were backing Obama, while North Carolina Gov. Mike Easley and Missouri Rep. Ike Skelton endorsed New York Sen. Hillary Clinton the same day.

Braley’s decision to support Obama was first reported Wednesday morning by the Des Moines bureau of the Associated Press.

I hope the rest of the super delegates follow suit soon. It'd be nice to know who the nominee is going to be by the end of May.

interested canadian   April 30th, 2008 11:47 am ET

Obama keeps the support coming even in a bad week. This speaks volumes - He is an agent of change and it's time!
People are choosing integrity, truthfulness and someone who will make intelligent decisions after careful deliberation. They are fed up with the say anything to get what you want politics. They are fed up with do what you have to do and fix it later politics. It's time for a change.

Liz Ricketson   April 30th, 2008 11:41 am ET

Thank God there are still people that are willing to do what is right rather than what is easy. It's easy to kick someone when they are down. Obama is the only person in years that really brings something new to the table, Clinton is old school, and is acting like a republican. She lies, where is she not from? I wish she would pick one of those home towns and just go home!

Hella Good   April 30th, 2008 11:41 am ET

Nora from Florida,

The title is correct, and the article states that 5 Super Delegates have backed a candidate in the past 24 hours. 3 for Obama and 2 for Clinton.

Status QuO.   April 30th, 2008 11:35 am ET

I wish people would quit saying it's over for Hillary. Clearly it's not. It's not over, get used to it and get over it.

Herman LA, CA   April 30th, 2008 11:35 am ET

Look the demarcated party knows who they want in the White House and it isn't the Clintons. The Clintons are trying to force their way into the White House, the DNP has viewed the Clintons as devises and can not bring about the change in foreign policy. They are looking forward to working with Barack on his foreign policy to bring the United States back around because the United States need allies in the region. This thing is much larger than the U.S. even though that is one of the DNP to turn this economy around for the people.

Benjamin from Wyoming   April 30th, 2008 11:35 am ET

It's about time that CNN and the other networks faced the music that the superdelegates have all made up their minds quite sometime ago. They have made their choices known to the camapaigns and it's just a matter of time that the stupid melodramatic obsessive compulsive corporate media wake up to the fact that Barack Obama is the candidate with the most super delegate support. Claire McCaskill told Politico that the majority of supers she's talked to on the Hill are committed, and it's just a matter of timing when they will make their choices public. She said that Obama will win more than he loses. Wake up CNN your hunger for melodrama and high ratings is over. End the drama with a bang and start focusing on the fact that he's won.

Cathy   April 30th, 2008 11:33 am ET

Why watching one of the news network on 4/29/08, it was mention that Rev Wright was called to the White House doing the Clinton Administration to counsel the Clintons concerning the Monica era. Is this true?

True Independent, MD   April 30th, 2008 11:30 am ET

Hillary and McCain make promises they most certainly will not be able to keep.
Unfortunately, most Americans will not figure that out until it is too late.

Margaret   April 30th, 2008 11:28 am ET

When will CNN and the rest of the main-stream media begin reporting the Peter Paul case? I've yet to hear it mentioned anywhere. If Wright is an issue surely election fraud is too!!

Jersey Jean   April 30th, 2008 11:28 am ET

Thank you Iowa. I'm 81 years old (and white, Hill supporters, so there). This is a health issue for me. My blood preasure can't take much more of this wretched campaign.

Sean   April 30th, 2008 11:24 am ET

Steve Edwards: You tried to make your case, but showed your ignorance with the Hussein comment. A name is just a name, and for you to refuse to support him due to his name is just laughable.

DoneWithDems   April 30th, 2008 11:24 am ET

Can you say "it don't matter"?

McCain/08

Venus   April 30th, 2008 11:23 am ET

Hillary's supporters should do their math about how many superdelegates Obama has gotten in the past week!

Obama is going to be the next president - so watch Hillary's slow death!

Sean   April 30th, 2008 11:23 am ET

Obama picked up another, US Representative Baron Hill. Should be an interesting day!

Steven, Indianapolis   April 30th, 2008 11:23 am ET

Bravo! The Superdelegates are different from the Clinton supporters.

Obama 08.

clinton   April 30th, 2008 11:21 am ET

It's kinda funny how all of your comments are a repeat of media opinion. Do any of you think for yourselves? It's like your all puppets with the media's voice.

Paul Lennon   April 30th, 2008 11:18 am ET

I hear these supers are lined up on both sides already.
The candidates pick the right time to roll them out.
I also hear Hillary got 2/3's sured up and will be the nominee
after the rest of the states votes, and she is leading the total vote
Go HILLARY

kai joe   April 30th, 2008 11:17 am ET

It is time for superdelegates and all politicians who feel responsibility for America to stand up and endorse Obama.
The battle between Barack and Hillary is not a battle between to Democrats but it is a battle between future and past, between the new way and the old establishment, between peace and war, between honesty and defamation, between modernization and regression.
Hillary is not honest and has been doing everything only to win. She hasn't achieved anything and hasn't accomplished any intentions in her 8 years of being so called "first lady". She hasn't done anything against Bill's ugly affairs; instead she was silent only because she knew that she would politically have gone down if she had divorced.
Nobody speaks about such things now but in the main election if she faced the McCain campaign, the Republicans would eliminate her.
To all Obama supporters:
don't get impatient and disappointed please. Why should you be? It is the new ugly trick from Clintons to make you feel so. Why don't you think of gaining 25% within 4 weeks? Why do you think of 9% margin of Hillary’s result? Hillary wants American people to think she is the underdog and victim on one hand and on the other side she plays the role of strong lady who eliminates Iran. Don’t be tapped into her tactics.
The advantage of Hillary is only her unscrupulous way to make politics, without any moral and any regards .the media wants such a person. And unfortunately a more considerable minority of American people consider this ability as an essential talent for a politician like Hillary to box through in politics.
What has to be done now:
-Obama shouldn't repeat frequently that "he is not a perfect man and not a perfect president"
-Obama has to be very offensive against Hillary’s abuse of fears and against Clinton’s dynasty.
- Tactics have to be to persuade people that Hillary will never be a good president because of Clinton's past and all her and his affairs.
-Tactics shouldn't be to focus on Hillary's present tactics and her fight for the future office in white house.tacticts have to focus on her unfairness and on her lies in order to remind people of her inabilities and her scandals and affairs.
-Tactics have to focus to persuade democrats not to make their greatest historic mistakes about losing Obama forever. After Martin Luther King, Obama is the only Politician with honesty and transparency and with clean hands.

-Obama has to be very offensive and focus on McCain.

Obama is the next president

Leslie-Washington   April 30th, 2008 11:17 am ET

The vote of superdelegates are not cast in stone, they can withdraw their vote anytime they wanted all the way to the convention floor. The job of superdelegates is to elect someone who CAN win the general election, I can candidly say if Obama is the nominee for the Democratic Party, McCain will be the next President.

Godwin   April 30th, 2008 11:16 am ET

I wish the Dems will review this their superdeligate style of choosing a candidate. It makes the voters feel like they're not important. This is democracy - government of the people, for the people and by the people! Can we just let the people choose the candidates???

Leslie-Washington   April 30th, 2008 11:15 am ET

Obama is such a pathological liar, the ONLY truth he said yesterday during press conference Wright don't have any concern for him or his campaign. If Wright is egocentric, Obama top him in that department.

What do you know about Obama? Why did Wright say, "he say what he has to say, he's a politician". It means Obama was pandering and lying to the American people.

Marine   April 30th, 2008 11:15 am ET

Obama only ignored his pastor after he became controversial, prior to that it was all lovey dovey.

Kel from Auburn, AL   April 30th, 2008 11:14 am ET

Welcome Aboard! This train is leaving and going all the way to the white house!

Venus   April 30th, 2008 11:14 am ET

Thank you sir! Way to go Obama!

Just stay focus - this race is over with for Hillary - but it's fun to see the slow march of her death!

Word is out that one of her supporters set up the Press-Conf - and she invited Rev. Wright -

Think about it - why would the news-media give so much time to cover Rev. Wright on Monday? And Sunday?

Warren Blackwell   April 30th, 2008 11:13 am ET

MARCIA, EXACTLY .

Dusacre   April 30th, 2008 11:13 am ET

If half of the remaining super delegates goes for each candidate, then guest who will win this nomination?

Terry   April 30th, 2008 11:12 am ET

Let's get this over, Go Obama. I will campaign NY to get rid of Clinton.

Obama 08

Good judgement

Nora   April 30th, 2008 11:09 am ET

It`s over for Hillary. Undereducated folks - it`s not about you - it`s about her ego. Remember dirty fights in 93-2000 White House ?

OBAMA is our future. World is laughing at Hillary and Mc Bush.

A Mama 4 Obama   April 30th, 2008 11:07 am ET

Time for Hillary "Rotten" Clinton to get on the "Midnight Train to Bosnia.

God said he'll make your enemies your foot stool.

Obama stay strong, you have a lot of supporters.

Go Obama!

Cynthia   April 30th, 2008 11:07 am ET

Congratulations Senator Obama and his supporters. We love it.

Marcia   April 30th, 2008 11:06 am ET

What is hurting Obama is cable news constant coverage of the so-called "controversies," which no one cares about. The American people want to discuss and solve the issues. Barack wants to discuss and solve the issues. Hillary Clinton and CNN only care about their ratings.

Michigan for Obama   April 30th, 2008 11:06 am ET

I wish the Clinton supporters would look - with an open mind - at Hillary and Bill e.g. where is their money coming from, their relationships with lobbyists, campaign tactics, etc. that will affect her Presidency if she/they were to become elected. Go back in history and take an honest and objective close look at the first Clinton White House which was riddled with scandal after scandal.

P.S. Rev. Wright: I felt bad that Obama had to take such a strong stand against Rev. Wright - the opposing campaigns and media would not let this go for what it is…a retired minister with very different and offensive point of views…he reminded me of my dear late father who would also say very outrageous things that I totally rejected…but I certainly couldn't reject my Dad and fortunately no one was demanding that I did.

White 60 year old woman for Obama…and from Michigan

Nora, FLORIDA   April 30th, 2008 11:05 am ET

CNN you counted wrong. Your title says he added 3 in 24hours and then your article says 5 in 24 hours. Which is it? Hope this is not a peek at how the count will be in the General election because once again, it will show that votes are being counted.

cheekbrown   April 30th, 2008 11:05 am ET

Obama is NOT damaged goods. He is proving beyond all doubt that he can take a punch, get up, and continue the fight until he is victorious. Haters beware.

We are living in a time that will be remembered for centuries forward.

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

Steve Edwards   April 30th, 2008 11:05 am ET

Obama gets the nomination and I'm either NOT voting, or switching sides…like about 25% of the Dems will do. WHY? Because as a Democrat, I do NOT trust this guy as far as I could throw him. The LAST thing this country needs is someone named Hussein to be president, and after his personal, close ties with Rev. Wright….it's apparant that Obama is a very angry person. This country will go through HELL if he's elected, and we can't take much more. Hillary is a WINNER, just like Bill was. Obama keeps talking about change…change to WHAT? How about changing back to the way it was in the 90's..peace and prosperity for all…under Bill Clinton.

Helene   April 30th, 2008 11:05 am ET

Yes. Obama is the best candidate and I support him enthusiastically more than ever !

karen   April 30th, 2008 11:04 am ET

Sooooo proud of Obama!!! He did something above and beyond his very own personal feelings and did what was best for this country!!! We have NOT seen this in either Clinton or McCain. They come from such wealth that they are all consummed with themselves. Obama grew up like the rest of us and will do what is BEST for all in America. Listen to him! He loves this country for it has given him and he loves the American people–So does Michelle!!!!

sam   April 30th, 2008 11:04 am ET

Obama supporters what are you on this guy has bad baggage on his side No OBUMMER HERE NO THANKS

Unshrub   April 30th, 2008 11:03 am ET

Why are we promoting those who make bad decisions? Almost everyone agrees the Iraqi war was a bad decision; so now people want to promote McCain or Hillary so they can fix the problem. Remember, they are the reason we are in this war, they are part of the problem. I say kick them out and vote for the only person whom had the foresight not to go into Iraq in the first place. WAKE UP PEOPLE, BEFORE IT”S TOO LATE!

VOTE OBAMA

Big Tex   April 30th, 2008 11:02 am ET

Its over Hell-ary, Lie-ary, Bill-ary. You can't win the nomination and that means you will never be the next President of the United States. You can go duck hunting with Cheney and Bush come January 09. Oh! by the way, don't forget to duck! Some people can't shoot straight.

Obama 08 12.

Glenn   April 30th, 2008 11:02 am ET

"The party's over….Good night lady!" Obama is only 297 deleagates away from nomination!

Clinton the panderer   April 30th, 2008 11:02 am ET

is she running for Queen or President? All the promises she makes are hollow. This isn't a monarchy. We are about to dump King George and we don't need another person in the white house thinking they can do what ever they want and promising everything that will be impossible to deliver.

chris   April 30th, 2008 10:58 am ET

Thank God another superdelegate coming to his senses. They should all just decide so this primary can end.

Steeve   April 30th, 2008 10:57 am ET

If Obama can ignore is pastor for 20 years, he can easily ignore the people of the USA for 4 years…

carlo   April 30th, 2008 10:57 am ET

Pay attention people:

Sure Clinton is geting supers, and that's okay. Just remember this: Obama is getting superdelegates after a loss and after the Rev. Wright scandal. If he can get supers to commit now, doesn't that say that he will probably get more later?

edna   April 30th, 2008 10:56 am ET

If all the delegates would stop being cowards, this will end, because according to the DNC rules, Hillary id done, fried to a crisp. I commend all the supers have courage, not the spineless ones..Go Obama

susie   April 30th, 2008 10:54 am ET

Obama divorced his rev. yesterday for anti- american tatics, will he divorce Michelle too? Michelle thinks America is MEAN and she is not proud of our country.

LOVE, FROM CHICAGO!!!!!!!!!!

Keith from Adam county Indiana   April 30th, 2008 10:53 am ET

When it comes to make the right call, Mr. Obama proved he is more qualified than Mr. McCain and Mrs. Clinton. Today all the economist are giving Mr. Obama credits for making the right call and stand against suspending the Federal gas tax as proposed by his opponents. I don’t want any $25 gas credit over the whole summer when we need to fix our roads and our bridges. Thank you Mr. Obama for making the right call and we are with you, and thank you to Mr. Braley for joining the winning team. I hope the news media will pay much attention and inform the public the way they suppose to.

Emeka, Florida   April 30th, 2008 10:53 am ET

The candidate's stance on this Gas tax stuff should be a reflection of how they reason. Once again, Obama has shown brilliance and smartness in opposing the gas tax holiday. Isnt this sound judgement? Judgement to go against the war in Iraq, and now judgement to say what's best for America.
The Superdelegates should not only consider who is capable of winning, but also consider who is better to solve our problems.

Shirley-Ohio   April 30th, 2008 10:52 am ET

You've just joined the winning team good move.

Peg   April 30th, 2008 10:52 am ET

Jay,

You want to see "damaged goods" just nominate Hillary (and Bill) as your candidate. Republicans can't wait to run against them, they have accumulated all sorts of negative date since the Clintons have left the White House. They all salivate when they think of using it.

Damaged goods, you ain't seen "damaged" goods until you see all the negatives the Clintons bring to the table. They're in the past, move forward.

Glenn   April 30th, 2008 10:52 am ET

Obama only needs 297 delegates! Tick Tock Tick Tock! Hillary is running out of time, money and delegates. So sad!

I am glad to see this. The media has focused negatively on Senator Obama for the last two months and yet he still manages to maintain a calm persona. Maybe Sean Hannity and O'reilly can put Pastor Wright to bed now. Keep your head up Senator Obama - help is defintely on the way. The devil may have meant if for bad, but God is working it out for your good.

Texas vet, I can't believe you would say "hope is hype." What is wrong with you? Hope is what we all need and want in order to succeed and live in this country. Hope is a unifier. Hope is a positive dream. Hope helps us out of deep depression. Hope is our salvation. How dare you say such a thing. I feel sorry for you.

Vote, Hope, Vote Obama!

bub   April 30th, 2008 10:49 am ET

The text shows the new declarations for candidates by super delegates breaking evenly, but you headline it as delegates breaking for Obama. CNN isn't spinning for Obama as clearly as MSCBC, but you really should offer him a pillow and be sure he's comfortable - again.

Torry   April 30th, 2008 10:47 am ET

CNN You failed to mention Clinton picked up a super delegate this morning from AFL-CIO President .I wonder if Rev Wright is a superdelegate and if he is still going to endorse Obama .Maybe they can go down in the basement of the same Chicago Church and pray like they did last year before he announced his candidacy.It amazes me how Obama thru this guy under the bus in a hurry .

Tom   April 30th, 2008 10:47 am ET

Every time I see a superdelegate decide to back Obama based on character, experience, ability to unite, spirituality, view of the future, lack of negativity, decision making or ability to change things, I think of a good friend committing suicide based on hypocrisy. These folks are attempting to drive the democratic party to political suicide in November based on the outright hypocrisy of the Obama campaign.

AC   April 30th, 2008 10:47 am ET

right source   April 30th, 2008 10:46 am ET

If the democratic presidential nominee is not selected in the proper manner, the democratic party will still suffer. If the superdelegates should choose and not the proper vote, I know several groups of people who will vote republic.
I will vote for Obama in the May 6 primaries, but if Clinton wins the democratic nominee in the right manner I will vote for her in November. If not, who knows.
North Carolina loves Obama!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Get over it all you self-centered egotists. Unite as Democrats or live with the guilt forever that you had the chance to save America and your pettiness doomed us to McBush, a conservative Supreme Court and the final downfall of the US as we know it.

You "my candidate, or nothing" folks disgust me. I put you in the same category as most Repubs - "me,me, me, me - the world revolves around me". Shame on you all!!!

Fred   April 30th, 2008 10:44 am ET

Well I guess even Superdelegates are perfect either. Personnel y I don't see why anyone in their right mind would endorse this man. Again rather or not he sunk the ship of his former pastor, he still backed him up for 20 years. Come on its very easy math. Then yesterday he dumps on him.
Come on knowing what this man was like as long as he has tells us the American public what he is like. I don't trust this man. Hey and any new endorsement by a Senator or Congress person from this point on shouldn't be trusted either. Good by to them also as far as I am concerned. They must remember this will all come back around and bite them in the butt as well. I thank this whole minister thing and the church he preached out of tells us alot about the man for Change ( Obama ) Obama don't you thank you have to change also.

KG   April 30th, 2008 10:44 am ET

Bitterness   April 30th, 2008 10:43 am ET

Kim and Susan - Get over your egos, and actually educate yourselves on the issues, and ACTUAL experience. Hillary's 20 years of being first lady doesn't really count as actual experience; especially when she didn't have security clearance. Clueless women.

Linda   April 30th, 2008 10:43 am ET

I wonder how much the Clinton campaign is paying Pastor Wright to come out. Remember, he was invited to the White House during Billy Boy
's troubling time with Monica!!!!!!!!!!

Joe   April 30th, 2008 10:43 am ET

If Obama ever becomes President he better NEVER invite Rev. Wright to the White House. That man does not belong to enter our public house as a guest after hearing those hateful comments.

ys   April 30th, 2008 10:42 am ET

Obama is over. It will be a sad race in the fall if he is the nominee. And CNN's reporting is highly biased, irresponsibly boosting McCain by promoting unelectable Obama.

Max from NY   April 30th, 2008 10:42 am ET

Way to go Barack! America is in love with you, boy. Crash HER neck in NC and Indiana and let's focus on McBush.. Thank you, Iowa!

HEIDI   April 30th, 2008 10:41 am ET

THANK YOU….LATEST NUMBERS LOOKS LIKE THIS

Obama -1491 pledge + 236 superdelegates = 1727

Clinton -1589 pledge + 257 superdelegates= 1589

Difference equals Obama is still ahead despite his critics and the extra drama.

I would like to know why the the left-elite congress, why didn't they endorse a man like Mayor Nutter. could it be because he has integrity, morals and refuses to be manipulated, They needed someone(Obama) who they could control, who shares their we hate our mean, lazy country. I dont think I like this new change they want to throw at us.

no longer a democrate,

bigben   April 30th, 2008 10:39 am ET

Lets not get stupid. hillary won pa not the loser obama.

danny   April 30th, 2008 10:38 am ET

In response to all the "negative" and "Bosnia" complaints on Hillary: To say that Obama hasn't had a negative campaign and hasn't invented stories to make him look better is beyond ignorant. Look up AttackTimeline about all of the Obama campaigns negatives and look up Obama embellishing his record and about how his parents met, the Kennedy's involvement (or not), his spiritual awakening from an article that never existed, him saying he was a Professor, etc. He has done a lot of things way worse than HIllary that isn't covered because Obama does a great job pulling the wool over people's faces. If there's one thing that makes him a better "politician" than Clinton and McCain, it's that.

Brattt   April 30th, 2008 10:38 am ET

Clinton, the loser, will be out of the race on May 7… 289 superdelagates will support Barack on that day despite the results in Indiana and WILL SHOW THE DOOR to HRC … The END IS coming, guys.. We are so happy!

the superdelegates are truly showing their wisdom. no wonder they are called superdelegates

dian   April 30th, 2008 10:37 am ET

It's the right thing to do. We will see changes for the better. Obama makes decisions that are good for the country. Look at what freezing gas taxes would do to many jobs. It's a no brainer who is more honest. We don't want others to lose their jobs just so we can be comfortable for only a few months. It hurts to see others suffer when they lose their jobs. Obama 08″

Good for you Braley!

Doug, DC   April 30th, 2008 10:37 am ET

Hello, are you excusing Ms. Sniper Fire Clinton of her creations/LIES??

Y'all Hillary supporters are laughable!!

htp   April 30th, 2008 10:37 am ET

The real important issue is that people starts to see the real Obama. He is not the "above all" politicians. He is a very calculated politician. To move up so fast in a short period of time explains all. He took advantages of people along the way, Rev. Wright is one of them therefore he can not denounce him. Just wait and see, there will be more Rev. Wright. "What goes around, comes around. "

Letha, Sioux Falls, SD   April 30th, 2008 10:36 am ET

He's just a new age political with to much negative in his house. By his own reverend's terms, is he left-brained or is he Wright brained? I really don't want to find out after he is in the White House.

Richard   April 30th, 2008 10:36 am ET

How can any american citizen support a candidate who has ANY kind of connection with a man who said the USA deserved the 9/11 attacks ? It is simply principle over politics.

Lou   April 30th, 2008 10:36 am ET

Please folks, let's keep this civil. No need to attack HRC. I am an indepedent for Obama but he doesn't stand a chance unless the Dems can come together. Over the last 2 days HRC has gained 2 superdelegates to Obama's 3. This has been a long tough haul for both of these candidates and while I think it is over, HRC has adjusted and shown backbone that is commendable. I still can't cast a ballot for her and it is due to policy issues and approach to governing. I also do not respect Bill but in fairness he is not running.

May God Bless and keep our great country

Marilynn, Wilmington, NC   April 30th, 2008 10:36 am ET

Amen.

I am convinced more than ever that Obama is the person to lead our country.

You will see his Judgement is in tact. He will be proven right on this tax holiday (election gimmick) that would eventually cost the consumer more money.

Belle   April 30th, 2008 10:36 am ET

For you that tout Obama handles Crises….

Lest you forget, he was the CAUSE of the two major crises you talk about.

We don't need a president that creates crises…Bush has managed to create enough for two lifetimes.

Who really cares about these endoresments? I never heard of most of these people anyway. I wonder how many people are feeling sorry for OBama and the predictament that Wright has put him in and will jump in to endorse him. Let the people vote and let the other politicians just SHUT UP!

Larry   April 30th, 2008 10:34 am ET

These super delegates who choose to support Obama will do so at their own risk. Because there is no way that man is going to win the General Election. There are too many questions about his integrity and his agenda at this point.

AZM   April 30th, 2008 10:34 am ET

LOL… kind of like investing in ENRON at this point…

Can't wait to see Wright's response to Obama's disloyalty!

joann   April 30th, 2008 10:34 am ET

Looks like no one cares who Obama is or how his ratings are dropping among the "people". We don't count here. They just don't care who gets in they just don't seem to want Hillary who is the best prepared candidate to run against Mccain. If they keep defecting to Obama no matter what he does, then I vote Mccain. I see sexism here but I know that doesn't count!! It's ok that 90% of blacks are voting Obama - that's not racism though. Huh, double standard.

Obama will tear down the walls that has been holding America back since JFK….We need a President that will hold dialogue with the rest of the world…Someone who will say that America is still willing to help not just countries with oil, but other countries with basic problems like better medicine, food etc….Obama is the one….

Obama and his supporters sicken me. He cant win in the fall and it will give me great pleasure to cross party lines and vote for McCain. Obama is all fairy tales and ego, and his supporters are worse. I would urge all Clinton supporters to do what it takes to beat Obama in the fall if he is the nominee. The only kind of hope that Obama instills in me is the hope that he and all of his supporters disappear!

Isn't it interesting that whatever Hillary is doing is important but that same issue isn't important when it comes to Obama. If Hillary had the scrutiny that Obama has (and we all knows she has a lot to answer about ) she would have dropped out by now. Make her answer the questions about Mark Penn, Columbia, NAFTA and Peter Paul, the $800,000 taken from lobbyist, who the donaters are to the library, etc.. Even with the media bias and the racism Obama is still on top. And Julie a delegate count is a delegate. All of you people who try to minimize Obama's success, like Hillary says a win is a win.
And a loss is a loss.

Ed   April 30th, 2008 10:32 am ET

When did either Obama or Cliton get 2025 delegates? Isn't that the finish line set up by the party? I have never heard of a race being over until one contestant crossess the finnish line.

It turns out the woman who organized Reverend Jeremiah Wright's event at the National Press Club, Monday, is a Hillary Clinton supporter.

I have come to the conclusion that the democrats serving in congress that back obama are really closet republicans. They pick obama because they want McCAin to win. How come he loses all match up with McCain and Hillary beats McCAin by a wide margin. Just can't understand it, but as I said these republicans have fooled us all into thinking they are Democrats.

Jeff   April 30th, 2008 10:31 am ET

Nice, even with all the negative ad campaign of Hillary "shot at by a sniper" Clinton, people are still seeing through her deceit and backing the only candidate with morals.

I am not sure if it is her age setting in and the memory starting to become a problem: shot at by snipers, having been supported by the same big oil companies that she now wants to go after, mysterious pregnant women, and oh yes, her undeniable support of NAFTA. Maybe she is just actually bitter, and who wouldn't be, I mean she must lose her mind everytime she hears the name Monica. Whatever the reason, how do so many of you continue to reward negative politics?

Put an end to negative campaigning, send a message that you must win on your own merits, using integrity and decency and by building a platform based on your moral structure, NOT on what is convenient politics for the moment. Vote for change in 08, not more of the same. We have a govt in office right now that is there because they were better at smearing the democrats, better at deceit and now with Billary, you propose to reward the same tactics that four and eight years ago you condemned………………..hypocrites!!!

danny   April 30th, 2008 10:31 am ET

They both received three superdelegates in two days. Hillary also picked up Mike George from PA, which I guess CNN has decided not to report on because it gives Obama the headline.

CNN has truly turned into the CLINTON Machine.

CNN exploits negativity to further divide this country whether polically, racially or socially.

CNN deflects CHANGE or POPULOUS sentiments through biased commentators and subject matter to which to report to the WORLD

CNN partnered with HANITY & COLMES has turned the American political forum into a circus for the entire world to mock

CNN is sucking the enthusiastic interest and motivation out of American youths now have with regards to politics

stage   April 30th, 2008 10:29 am ET

How long shall we discuss Rev. Wright?

Both Obama and Wright are egomaniacs seeking and demanding center stage.
Do we want the presidency to be that stage?

They will dominate the American debate.

Go OBAMA The end is coming for Hillary look out after NC then you will see the new superdelegate go for Obma do the math no way they will over ride the will on the people"" DO THE MATH IF HILLARY WON ALL BY 70% STILL DO THE MATH AFTER NC SHE WILL HAVE TO WIN ALL BY 80 %

Geez   April 30th, 2008 10:29 am ET

I am still waiting on Al Gore's endorsement - Gore is the kiss of death - whoever he does not endorse will be the nominee…

Jeff, Boston MA   April 30th, 2008 10:28 am ET

This race is kinda confusing. Obama has been beating McCain in head to head polls for months. Finally, Clinton has a good head to head showing, and everyone thinks it is the "sign".

A) It is one poll
B) Why wasn't it a sign when Obama continually beat him in head to head matchups.

Now, Clinton is claiming total popular votes(including FL and MI, I might add) won. Just a few weeks ago, she said that wasn't what was important. Can you say it with me, HYPOCRITE!

And finally, Obama has been getting superdelegates left and right, and no one comments. Why doesn't someone with some pull and some guts step up and admit this thing is over, and ask Hillary to end it?

If Hillary thinks staying in this race could hurt her in the future, she would bail.

End this, and let's move on to the general election.

georgia   April 30th, 2008 10:28 am ET

Truth shall prevail. No more poli-Tricks-cians .NAFTA gave the expected short-term economic boost in the 90's .We are still paying for it (with W's help) & will continue to lose jobs til corporations are made to answer for seeking cheap labor in India,Phillipnes, Mexico ,China,etc. while forcing americans to lose jobs but still pay escalating prices for the products & services. That certainly is not looking after the interests of average americans. But we're supposed to be grateful to the Clintons & Bushes as they & their cronies have been the only americans capitalizing on the drain on the country.

Liz   April 30th, 2008 10:28 am ET

The movement continues. Obama now needs about 287 more total delegates and he wins the nomination.

Hillary CANNOT win then elected delegate count at this time. Elected delegates are what wins elections. Just think of Al Gore who won the popular vote but lost the elected delegate count to Bush.

The race is essentially, its being played off as close by the media to increase their ratings.

Hillary supporters, please start supporting your democratic nominee. He will win fair race although hillary had all the advantage in the beginning.

Mandy   April 30th, 2008 10:28 am ET

I'll stay tuned :)

Amy R.   April 30th, 2008 10:28 am ET

Superdelegates are smart. They can see through the hypocrisy of Hillary pandering regarding gas prices.

Hillary fails to mention not disclosing the Clinton library donations from Middle East OPEC oil nations like Saudia Arabia, Kuwait and UAW. I want full disclosure from any candidate that wants the job of President. So what is Hillary and Bill hiding about the Clinton library donations?

A REAL DEMOCRAT   April 30th, 2008 10:28 am ET

Go Obama! The superdelegates are not stupid and they know what they're doing! They actually know these candidates personally and are choosing Obama…says something about Clinton, doesn't it?

Brian from Fort Mill, S.C.   April 30th, 2008 10:27 am ET

It looks as if Obama is losing the battle (Rev. Wright), and winning the war (superdelegates). He used to be behind by about 100 superdelegates, and now he's behind by about 20. And he's closing the gap every day.

An American in Canada   April 30th, 2008 10:27 am ET

It is almost as if they already have these confirmation and are waiting to announce another superdelegates each time there is negative news about Obama.

Obama's campaign is just to obvious.

First, getting Rev. Wright to be outrageous

Thus giving Obama an opportunity to denounce Rev. Wright and pretend to be outraged about his statements which have been aired in the last 6 to 8 months…..

Please American take a good luck at the man behind the curtains…
He is just a wizard….

I could have guessed   April 30th, 2008 10:27 am ET

I hear Hillary went negitive again. who could have guessed that. A lieing person such as her has a lot of room to talk, I guess next she will be on her soap box preaching grim and gloom as all the old timers do. Scare Mongers Clintons and the Old Washington Status Quo please go crawl back under your rock and let change happen….

Tim from Ohio   April 30th, 2008 10:27 am ET

I looked up Iowa Rep. Bruce Braley and was shocked to learn that he is white. Since Nobama and Rev. Wright are racists, I'm suprised that any white person would still support him. There has to be a payoff there in the works.

rehoboth ng   April 30th, 2008 10:27 am ET

I know when the storm is over,Barrack Obama will still be standing.Despite all he has gone through recently,many do understand that he is in a better position than Hillary to fulfill the American dream. Welcome on board Congressman Braley.

Marguerite, NYC   April 30th, 2008 10:27 am ET

Thank you Rep. Braley for having the courage to be the first to come out after the controversey and back the next POTUS - Sen. Obama - YES WE CAN!

It's Over!!!   April 30th, 2008 10:26 am ET

Another superdelegate for Obama! I understand people feel very strongly about their candidates. I pray for Senator Obama every day. But it is time for Clinton supporters to face the facts. Senator Obama will win at least half of the remaining state delegates. Come June he will have the states, the popular vote and he will need less than 100 votes to secure the nomination. Hillary Clinton can't win the election because she is not a nominee. The DNC will pressure the Super D's to "unite" the party and the Hillary camp will implode.

Whether you like it or not Senator Obama is the democratic nominee. HRC said herself that his policies are a lot closer to hers than John McCain's. We have a record number of democrats registering in almost every state. If we stick together we can win! For God's sake look at the issues! There is no way we can fix the economy, healthcare or anything else if we continue to spend billions of dollars on this war. To Hillary supporters thinking of deflecting remember that the next generation will suffer much more than we have if there is 8 more years of the Bush administration. (Look at McCain's healthcare plan!) Do not betray our children to prove a point.

carolinas   April 30th, 2008 10:26 am ET

Happy to see the support from superdelegates. Specially now, Obama needs all his democratic members support to bring a "CHANGE" in many areas to restore economic prosperity, world's peace and unity among all nations to root out hate and violence.

OBAMA 2008…!!!!

jeffrey   April 30th, 2008 10:26 am ET

Evelyn Jewell   April 30th, 2008 10:26 am ET

Why suddenly Obama, refutes what Rev. Wright preaches? Why did Obama & his family stay in Rev. Wrights' church for twenty years?

Obama seems to have double standards, for special occasions, when he needs to promote himself.

Obama as the Democratic nominee, will surely lose many Democrats, to Mc Cain.

Voters are not naive! Obama's speech about Rev. Wright, is to fool voters again. He's trying to promote himself , to the WHITE HOUSE.

Sam   April 30th, 2008 10:26 am ET

brag on   April 30th, 2008 10:25 am ET

It took America and the typically slow media, 5 days at the most to discern Rev Wright's character, to know his political positions and to understand his agenda.

What does it say about Barack Obama's judgement, that he was unable to make the discernment in 20 years time?

And Obama brags about his judgement.

Beverly   April 30th, 2008 10:25 am ET

Obama is getting closer to the nomination now. He just needs a few more to win this thing.

COUNT DOWN: TOTAL of 287 delegates remaining to get the nomination!!!

How many will Obama get for Indiana & NC?

Obama The Inevitable, Chicago, IL   April 30th, 2008 10:25 am ET

Now with the Rev. Wright situation effectively behind him, the superdelegates will be flooding out for Barack whether he loses in Indiana or not. He is on his way and there is nothing that's going to stop him!

Foreign observer   April 30th, 2008 10:24 am ET

This guy understands that America needs a uniter, not a fighter. A fighter in the White House will cause the world to fight back and to fight American interests. A tough Hillary fighting policy will isolate the US again.

JBY   April 30th, 2008 10:24 am ET

Twice, Barack Obama has faced the people of the United States dealing with crisis.
Twice, Barack Obama has shown the people of the United States that he can handle crisis eliquently and diplomatically in a timely fashion.
It astounds me that Hillary Clinton and her supporters have given her the title, "fighter". When faced with questions about her character or integrity she does one of two things:
1. cackles directly at the camera or
2. has her husband lecture the media about "politics of pile on"

Leaders lead by example. Superdelegates know this. Hillary has had ample opportunity to answer questions about Mark Penn, Columbia, NAFTA and Peter Paul. She chooses not too…
John Kerry did the same thing.
And we ALL know what happened to John Kerry.

I'm not surprised, another first-term guy. as in inexperienced. Obama gets alot of the new elite congressman and women. He must be part of Obamas friends? the far left,radical arrogant intellectuals. who joins with Pelosi to try and put MR.AND MRS WE HATE AMERICA in the white house.

OR maybe Braley needed the 19,000 to pay off his credit cards?
Obama buys the SD

I hope when he does that Hillary and Lou Dobbs join together and start a new party. because for all the dirt Hillary takes we KNOW she is NOT ANTI-AMERICA!!!~

I observe CNN everyday, Now I think, Its just Hillary coverage. No more Obama. Obama will be on TV only if it is on Wright or Some thing to pull him down. Common you guys, Behave atleast like an educated people.
Only way is to solve the issue, just let Hillary go home. Otherwise, The country will be divided like in old days.

This must make the queen furious!!!!!! Even after all of this Wright stuff, the super D's can still see through the bull. Obama will be the Nom in June, the math is against the queen. I am really hoping that next week will be the nail in her campaign. She will only futher divide us if this thing countines. But history has shown us how low the queen can go, so I hope Obama is ready for anything from her camp. Please IN, vote for Obama. You alone have this power to finially stop the queen's attack on the poor and uneducated who do not know better about how she really is.
