From

(CNN) — Barack Obama continues to lead Hillary Clinton in Guam's Democratic caucuses as local party officials work into the early morning tallying votes from Saturday's event.

With 7 out of 19 villages reporting, Obama leads with 497 votes (55.3 percent) to 401 votes for Clinton (44.7 percent).

Guam caucus officials merged some village returns together, reducing the total number of villages from 21 to 19.

When Hillary lost in Iowa, she cried like a baby to invite mercy for herself from New Hampshire, then she reneged on the agreement that Florida and Michigan should not count. This shows how disingenuous Hillary is!
Hillary, please do not cry like a baby if you lose Guam. A person who is presidential does not cry. That is not testicular fortitude! Learn from Obama!

Japray   May 3rd, 2008 1:16 pm ET

alright!!!!!!!! no more head jobs for Bill!!!!!!! lol

Mary   May 3rd, 2008 1:15 pm ET

Hillary sinking ship in Washington,

"Your either with me or against me"

Hillary, that is the wrong way to do politics. Especially when the ECONOMISTS are telling you that you are WRONG about the gas tax!

The sale of Magnequench to China was Billary's fault. STOP blaming others for what YOU did!

Hillary, please stop with the constant BOSNIA SNIPER FIRE!

America has had enough with all the lies!

Oh yesss..   May 3rd, 2008 1:09 pm ET

Look slike our friends at guam know the truth!

OBAMA 08!

That a fake like Obama has made it this far is proof that the dumbing down of America is working.

BBBBBB   May 3rd, 2008 1:09 pm ET

The more I read comments from Hillary supporters, the more it becomes crystal clear why she is leading amongst the least educated in the nation! Soooooo very, very sad

wouter   May 3rd, 2008 1:09 pm ET

The ellection campaign isn't fair I gess.

Obama has to fight two oponents, not one.

The Clintons can present them selves at two places at the same time, Bill and Hillary, Obama has to do it on his own.

Yay Guam   May 3rd, 2008 1:09 pm ET

Regardless of the outcome, I think we can all agree the best part of the Guam result will be — NO EXIT POLLS!

I am so tired of news coverage that implies that only white people's votes count. (I am white myself, by the way.) I also understand the political pros' concern about extrapolating income, age, race, gender, and other patterns to the general election — not that this applies to Guam anyway since they don't vote then.

But try explaining all that to a wide-eyed third or fifth grader (white or black) who is trying to make sense of the coverage to date. They are not getting a good message from this obsession with the "color" of each vote, and which colors are worth more.

I'm refreshed by a contest where we will only know how many votes went to each candidate, and the votes count just as much to the media regardless of who cast them. That's the America I recognize.

Joury   May 3rd, 2008 1:08 pm ET

Anything to cover the stink of the last two months of scandals and downfalls.

IN and NC will show how unelectable Obama is.

Hillary 2008!!!

Dessie   May 3rd, 2008 1:08 pm ET

Guam did as most American did and will do in November. Go guam!

Nick F.   May 3rd, 2008 1:08 pm ET

So many of the posts express condescention towards Guam. "Even Guamians know…" "Who cares about Guam?" Etc. How shameful. The people of Guam are your equals and mine, too.

marianna   May 3rd, 2008 1:08 pm ET

Change, change, change, change.

That's all that's left, change. Only a small change in my pockets.

I'd rather have more doe, not just change.

Hillary 08 – or it's McCain!

kenny cole   May 3rd, 2008 1:07 pm ET

American people are so smart enough to know who they want to put in the oval officeand am very sure is not a LIAR they want and if i can 't trust you i will not vote for you HILLARY CLINTON please drop out of the race

Barack Obama~
YES WE CAN!

Tracy/San Diego   May 3rd, 2008 1:06 pm ET

Where is Obama's momentum when he can barely hold the lead in Guam? Answer, he doesn't have momentum. It is frustrating that the truth about him didn't come out sooner but the media darling was protected by the media. Hillary 08.

Jeanne   May 3rd, 2008 1:06 pm ET

Good for Guam. Let the little guy make a difference for the USA.

BBBBBB   May 3rd, 2008 1:06 pm ET

Lets do this Hillary, we know we can't win this time, so lets damage obama, so you can run again in four years.

vitor   May 3rd, 2008 1:05 pm ET

tax relief is just a temporary solution that in the end isn`t going to resolve the big problem. America have a big oil depedence problem.
obama is correct! America have to find new solutions to energy problem. Not just a relief tax that helps in the polls, but don `t resolve the problem.

Laura zinnger   May 3rd, 2008 1:05 pm ET

We're with you… GO OBAMA.

Philly   May 3rd, 2008 1:04 pm ET

WHO CARES ABOUT GUAM……IT'S NOT EVEN IN AMERICA.

PEOPLE IN INDIANA AND NORTH CAROLINA ARE REAL AMERICANS…..AND WILL VOTE FOR HILLARY.

HILLARY WILL BE PRESIDENT!

Hope in Guam   May 3rd, 2008 1:03 pm ET

Hilary, please surrender and leave with pride.
Obama is too far away to catch.
Yes we Can.

Hillary voters…uneducated people who only like to vote if it's easy. They don't like caucuses.

Tumai   May 3rd, 2008 1:03 pm ET

Go on Obama 08

mollygonz   May 3rd, 2008 1:02 pm ET

Obama did vote for the gas tax break two years ago..two things, gas prices were alot lower then and also he voted against an extension of the first vote because it was not working. He wanted to see if it would work first. It did not. Now he is voting against it. Get is straight. There is nothing wrong with that. Also, all these bent out of shape people who are going to vote republican in the fall if their candidate does not get the nomination need to wake up! Even though I am pro-life, do you females realize that John McCain's administration will most likely take away your choice?? Don't be stupid out of anger. That is just ridiculous. If Obama does not get the nomination, I simply won't vote in the fall…I would never vote for four more years of Bush out of spite. Think beyond yourself.

bss   May 3rd, 2008 1:02 pm ET

tell me again why Guam matters?
Last time I checked they are only useful because we have a military base their, and military votes anyway.
Just another way for the rats to take away the vote from the ordinary American.
Its obvious that the typical person from Guam doesn't relate to the ordinary American.
Anyways, todays latest poll shows Hillary's lead increasing nationally
bye bye Obama

Anna, SW Missouri   May 3rd, 2008 1:02 pm ET

State (and territory) demcratic parties decide if they will have a caucus or primary. It is not the decision of the DNC. Bill Clinton won the 1992 election with the same rules that Barack Obama is now winning. If it were not for these rules, he would never have won the nomination, especially if it had been "winner take all states" as they now think it should be. They certainly didn't complain about the rules back then.

Hillary bragged in Texas about how she went down there in 1972 to help get the vote out, she was a party activist! Now she and her followers complain about how party activists are involved in caucuses.

Hillary had 12 supporters (out of 30 total) on the DNC and ALL of them voted to strip the delegates from Florida and Michigan. Barack Obama was still pretty unknown then and she was supposed to be crowned!

The lead spokeswoman from the Forida democratic caucus in the House of Representatives pushed the fight to not allow the mail in re-vote. She is a Hillary Clinton Super Delegate. (Except for the fact that she doesn't get to vote. :) . )

Hillary Clinton's campaign manager, Terri McCaulife, former DNC chairman, fought to strip Michigan's delegates in 2000 and 2004 if they moved their primary up before Iowa. His reasoning—rules are rules and it would create caos in the party!

Does anyone see any hypocracy in any of this????

Emmanuel   May 3rd, 2008 1:02 pm ET

Go go go Obama you are really the symbol of unity…you indeed have the capabilities to become the next President of America….your stature.temperament coupled with powerful speechs makes far ahead of the other candidates..the wind of change is blowind so everybody must come on board because Obama is the hope for the future.

CANADIANS4OBAMA   May 3rd, 2008 1:01 pm ET

Obama can also change the canadian future when he wins….
GOOOOOO OBAMA

IPatel   May 3rd, 2008 1:01 pm ET

It's pathetic how the mainstream media is trying to make a big deal out of the Guam primaires just to highlight Obama's gains. Who cares about these 3000 votes. Look into the election debacle Obama faced in the big states that matter (PA, OH, TX and CA).

100% DEMOCRAT   May 3rd, 2008 1:01 pm ET

GUYS, WE MUST ALL VOTE DEMOCRAT, REGARDLESS OF WHO THE NOMINEE IS…PUT YOUR DIFFERENCES ASIDE AND SUPPORT OUR CANDIDATE. BOTH POSITIVE AND NEGATIVE ARGUMENTS CAN BE MADE FOR EITHER CANDIDATE, I GET THAT. BOTTOM LINE IS, EITHER DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES WILL DO A BETTER JOB OF GOVERNING THIS COUNTRY THAN MC CAIN. WE CANNOT AFFORD FOUR MORE YEARS OF THIS!! I ALMOST LOST MY JOB TWICE IN THE LAST YEAR.. SOME PEOPLE I KNOW LOST THEIR HOMES, OTHERS THEIR BUSINESSES… LOOK AROUND YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD AND WITHIN YOUR OWN FAMILIES, WE ARE IN TROUBLE… THANK YOU.

Russell Tunes - Portland, OR   May 3rd, 2008 1:00 pm ET

Only the big states matter right Hillary? Because that's what democracy is all about.

obama,keep your chin up babe,we will get through these primaries and the caucuses that "dont really count" according to clintons. i'm praying for you lets wrap this deal up by tuesday,hillary will be ok she'll get over it.
OH! dont worry bout the terribly racist /fascist fox news media they'll still be talking bout rev wright at your 2nd inauguration 5yrs from now. we love you barack. go guam!

Yeah that's a fair fight. Who's the real fighter.

IN Voter   May 3rd, 2008 12:58 pm ET

Why must we continue with this charade? Hillary lost over a month ago. Just because her ego won't allow her to admit it, why must the rest of the country (read: mostly the mainstream media) indulge her like this?

If Obama had lost 10 races in a row and remained in the race, everyone would be laughing at how foolish she was being.

Chapman   May 3rd, 2008 12:57 pm ET

GOOO-OBAMA!!!!
That's right we'll take the Guam delegates (I'm sure the Clinton campaign has their Guam doesn't matter line ready for the press).
We are counting down the final delegates & OBAMA is our guy!!!
CNN, Faux "news", Msnbc, ABC, & the crux of the MSM are rendering themselves irrelevant for their shameless story lines. We the People are looking for truth & we'll seek it out & live it. This race goes no further than Oregon where Clinton comes face to face with the fact that there will not be enough delegates for her to secure the nomination (even by coup) @ which point she begrudgingly concedes & cites the vast left wing conspiracy as her demise… YES WE CAN!!!

pinky_50   May 3rd, 2008 12:57 pm ET

YES WE CAN!!!

OBAMA 08!!

shawn   May 3rd, 2008 12:57 pm ET

Wow, again Obama wins places that don't matter in the general election. McCain must be really scared. Just wait till more baggage comes out about Obama. Obama's sure can get the far left to vote for him, but again, the voters he NEEDS the swing voters are for Hillary and McCain. I wonder what odds Vegas has on Obama in the general?

Mel   May 3rd, 2008 12:57 pm ET

Then Senator Clinton must have gone to Iraq for the oil also. Now she
wants to dull the impact of that unwise move by offering us a 25cents off
each gallon of gas. What kind of rebate will America receive for the lives lost and the children who will have to grow up not having their parents to support and guide them? We need a wise leader and one who has demonstrated integrity, not just spin.

Jayson   May 3rd, 2008 12:57 pm ET

This is huge news considering the fact that there votes don't matter as long as they choose not to become a state.

Bill, Canada   May 3rd, 2008 12:57 pm ET

Hillary on Gas = The Panderer in Chief!

Paul   May 3rd, 2008 12:56 pm ET

Come on you younger voters. Get out and make a difference. Older voters are too gullible when it comes to politicians. They must be judging from past decisions. I think Obama is authentic and will try to promote real change.

scott byington   May 3rd, 2008 12:56 pm ET

Hmmm do we have caucuses during the actual election? I didn't think so…so I wonder how people think Obama can beat McCain when there are no caucuses. HIllary won the big states and most of what Obama won will go republican anyway….Oh that is right, hope and change, hope and change, hope and change, hope and change, Rev Wright, hope and change, hope and change, "for the first time in my life I'm proud to be a American, hope and change, hope and change, "those little people in small towns like their guns and religion because of the economy", hope and change my butt.

Pamela in Charlotte   May 3rd, 2008 12:55 pm ET

Obama is going to win big in Guam and REALLY BIG in NC! That Hillary person is toast here in NC. Tell 'em I said so!

Ben Heide   May 3rd, 2008 12:55 pm ET

Guam?!?!

Nordo   May 3rd, 2008 12:55 pm ET

I hope Senator Clinton does not let anyone talk her into being Senator Obama's running mate for the sake of Democratic unity. I say let Senator Obama run and give our fellow Democrats their due – fair and square. Then moderate to conservative Democrats will support Senator McCain (Senator Lieberman likes him so he's fine with us) in November. When he has had four years in the presidency, then Senator Clinton will have four more years of experience and be an even stronger candidate and still relatively young (64 compared to Mcain's 76 at that time). Senator Obama, having had his chance and failed in 2008 will be on nobody's short list of candidates for 2012. The leftists in the Democrat party will have been appeased because we "bit the bullet" this year and it will be our turn in 2012 to have a centrist to right of center Democrat run for the White House (Clinton-Bayh). I think we can win the presidency in 2012 without the left wing of the Democratic party, especially after the younger voters registering now enter the workaday world and lose their idealism and become more pragmatic. The coalition backing Senator Obama today is very similar to that of 1968 who wanted "anyone but Humphrey." They were my generation and we were disappointed too – but we got over it. We're older now and still Democrats – just not leftists. When the left wing of our party carries the ball, we always lose (Mondale, Dukakis, and Kerry)

Ricardo Williams   May 3rd, 2008 12:55 pm ET

Bringing back the Clintons to the White House is like dating your ex-boyfriend or ex-girlfriend. We already know what they're about. Who wants to deal with all that emotional abuse and baggage all over again. It is time to bring in the new. Obama for President.
The American people have been abused by Bushes and Clintons for 30 years and everytime it is getting worst. And what about infidelity? Can we trust those people ever again? And the consistent lies about sniper fire?

Charlotte   May 3rd, 2008 12:55 pm ET

Obama has taken over a million dollars in donations from sub-prime lenders. Citigroup,Washington Mutual,Countrywide,Credit Suisse, Centex and Goldman Sachs. He is beholden to them and their tatics. He talks out of both sides of his mouth. He is a typical politician who will say what he thinks you want to hear. Rev. Wright said it all, Obama is a politician who says what a politician needs to say to win."
Google it folks

kj from Canada   May 3rd, 2008 12:54 pm ET

I lived on Guam for 10 years. They have all the ammenities, the natives are Chamorro and speak their own language but of course speak English perfectly. They pride theirselves on the education system. They are very wise to the pandering of politicians as the USA only wants the island for military purposes and could care less about the citizens.

cole canada   May 3rd, 2008 12:54 pm ET

all you hillary people when this primary started everyone thought it will be hillary that will sweep the primary and win but Obama swept the carpet off her feet now she is the one acting like a victim wake all you people with no brains Obama has proved to the clinton that they are not a power house they just can't take whatevere they want and think no one can stand up to them. One thing i am glad for is that Obama will go down in history win or lose cause he made everyone see the dirt of the clinton.

Norman from Puerto Rico   May 3rd, 2008 12:54 pm ET

Go Guam For Obama…

CONSIDER THIS…..

BUSH H.W. VP 1980—1984

BUSH H.W. PRES. 1988—1892

CLINTON W.J. 1992—2000

BUSH G.W. 2000—2008 (24 YRS 2 FAMILIES)

CLINTON H.R. 2008—2016 (32 YRS 2 FAMILIES)

In a Nation of over 300 million citizens, is this the
best we can do…?

NEPOTISM>>>>>patronage bestowed or favoritism shown on
the basis of family relationship, as in business and
politics:

sjp   May 3rd, 2008 12:52 pm ET

isn't guam just a causus state, do they even have electricity, little states don't count. the clinton backers ignorance toward the majority of americans( which lives in the small states) and americans living abroad is just astounding, i invite any clinton backer who says caususes are dumb or don't count to come to iowa or any other caucus state and see how far they get. also just keep bashing anything outside a large state and see how far it gets her.

Wayne   May 3rd, 2008 12:52 pm ET

Way to go Obama!! I love it when Bill and Hillary go down in flames. Who in the right or left mind would want another 4 years of Bill??

Anna Lee   May 3rd, 2008 12:52 pm ET

I DON'T UNDERSTAND ALL THIS ABOUT THE GAS TAX RELIEF. OBAMA VOTED FOR THIS TAX RELIEF TWO YEARS AGO. NOW HE IS AGAINST IT? WHAT IS POLITICS?

HILLARY CLINTON IS A BRAVE WOMAN. SHE WILL DO A WONDERFUL JOB AS PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES. WHAT IS WITH THE PEOPLE AGAINST HER?

IF SHE DOESN'T GET NOMINATED I WILL CHANGE TO REPUBLICAN.

Emmanuel Bigman   May 3rd, 2008 12:52 pm ET

Go! OBAMA, you are the hope of America. If I was a US citizen, I would give you athousands of votes. I love you so much. There could be no change with Clinton, nor McCain. Obama is the super candidate, I am sure most of super delegates will lign behind you.

kelly WI   May 3rd, 2008 12:51 pm ET

How are they going to proportion Guams 5 delegates.?
they can't vote in the general anyway.
How come Hilarys supporters say Cnn is biased toward Ob and versa'visa? how come every one thought the Clintons were the greatest thing that came down the pike 2 years ago and now hate them? Talk about flip floppers. you knew then what you knew now.
Finally we are finding out what Ob is or isn't.
These polls are just meant to keep you interested. The only poll that is important is the one in Nov. when people can vote in secret and don't have to be afraid of what to tell a pollster now.
Most of these voters now are voting against someone not for someone.
It is Hilarious.!!

vitor   May 3rd, 2008 12:51 pm ET

cnn,
please i saw a poll showing that obama lose suport. that normal, when you see the poll was made 28 -30 april. these days were all reverend wrigth `s speech . i think if you made a poll todaqy the numbers will be better for obama.
obama is going to win guam, and is in total 9 delegates and i hope obama gets 7.

Pam   May 3rd, 2008 12:51 pm ET

How long until Hillary's campaign makes the statement that caucuses don't matter and that Guam is unimportant?

jafus   May 3rd, 2008 12:51 pm ET

All the TV stations are talking about how Hillary won Pennsylvania and gaining ground in North Carolina. But what they are not saying is that Obama ran against Hillary, Bill, Cheslie, the Governor and Mayor in Pennsylvania, plus she still have family there. Bill Clinton has been campaigning in North Carolina almost every day while Obama has to go from Indiana to North Carolina. Counting the odds against him and doing so well shows how strong he is. As far as experience, I am sure Obama is smart enough to select and surround himself with highly experience people. You don't have to know everuthing as long as you are a leader and surround yourself with experience people. Hillary has never been president before and did not have a security clearance so she has not had to make any presidential decisions. By the way I was once a die hard Hillary supporter, but since I've learned who she really is and her motive I will never vote for her.

King in MO   May 3rd, 2008 12:51 pm ET

Shaina   May 3rd, 2008 12:50 pm ET

this is frickin stupid…. hurry up with the results already or just a make a projection! it's 63% reporting… this isn't a big state, CNN is just being stupid… Obama 54% to Clinton 46%

Paula in WI   May 3rd, 2008 12:50 pm ET

Isn't it fascinating that CNN can count all of the states on super tuesday within 3 hours,yet they can't count this tiny island in that amount of time.I'm beginning to believe that just enough tension is being released to stir up new voters for november because I don't believe this contest was this close for this long.It's all a political gimmick created to get people to sign up to vote.Each media channel has their choice for candidates.What happened to true unbiased reporting.Everybodys in it for the promises and the money.Even all the newspapers.It's pathetic.

bob caasey   May 3rd, 2008 12:50 pm ET

The worst divicive channels in the world is FOXNews. Its a shame that Hillarios went there. why din't she leave bill after monika broke out is it poor or good judgement.
Her experince is just over exergerated. what executive position has she ever held in her life.

Griff   May 3rd, 2008 12:50 pm ET

OBAMA MAMA   May 3rd, 2008 12:48 pm ET

Thank you Guam for bringing a few more delegates into the insurmountable lead held by our Democratic party candidate for President Barack Obama! No way Hillary get the nod unless aliens come down to earth and take Barack away to their planet where of course many of the deluded Hillary supporters already have homes and condos.

Uhm, what does everyone have against caucus states? Are they not as intelligent or something? Do their votes not matter in the grand scheme of things or something? All this crying about Hillary winning the big states is foolish. Most are states a democrat will win in November no matter what. New York? California? Pennsylvania? Those are states made for democrats no matter who the candidate is. The only real battleground state she's won is Ohio and had her NAFTA loving advisor been brought to task there instead of the mis-information on Obama and Canada, she would have lost her credit there as well. Both ran good campaigns, well, mostly. But the winner is Obama. You would rather ignore democracy and just hand the election of Hillary because she was supposed to have won in the first place?

So what….it's guam…..Don't they eat like mice over there? Anyway, it's pointless because neither Guam nor Puerto Rico can vote in the general election.

Obama fans just run your mouth and make comments,dont' you all have anything better to do with your time? you are all going to shut up when Hiliary is nominated and will be President of the United States, Hiliary supporters are too intiligent to put stupid comments on the blog

brown   May 3rd, 2008 12:42 pm ET

QUESTION FOR ANYONE….. Are we all ok with this? Hillary is going to go to the "superdelegates" and say this, "guys I know Obama won more delegates, I know Obama won more states, I know he has more popular votes but I'm better than him".

Please answer me somebody with a yes or no and maybe a little comment, are people ok with that position????

Joe Brock   May 3rd, 2008 12:42 pm ET

Obama continue to win contests dispite Fox News 24 hrs negative attack, Rev. Wright, Elite remark, etc… Super Delegate and Indian ..take notes… then said hello to your next President.

jujub   May 3rd, 2008 12:42 pm ET

Hillary winning big states has nothing to do with who will win in November. The Democratic candidate for president will win in November unless you McCain lover's want four more years of debt, war, recession, high gas prices, bridges falling down, etc.

Barack has won 30 contests out of 45 contests…3 to 1 over Hillary. Barack is ahead in popular votes by 500,000, not counting his overwhelming majority of wins in caucases. Barack is ahead in pledged delegates, which is what this primary is about…the one who wins the most pledged delegates gets the nomination.

So, all you Hillary folks need a reality check…your candidate has already lost the election.

dwho   May 3rd, 2008 12:41 pm ET

Change, Change, Change and change.
First presidential candidate to relie on the American people for campaign funding.
First presidential candidate to deny LOBBYISTS' campaign funding.
First presidential candidate to speak to the hearts of people from all states and races to take part in primaries and caucuses.

WHen will the truth come out about Hillary and Bill re: The PAUL case showing that the Clinton took money from him.. The judges have held that Clinton cannot be deposed before the election. WHAT IS ALL THAT ABOUT? WHY IS THE MEDIA NOT WALKING ABOUT THIS? IS OUR GOVT AND MEDIA AND JUDGES CONTROLLED BY THOSE IN POWER THAT WANT TO SWAY AN ELECTION THEIR WAY?

I GUESS IF YOU CAN'T BUY YOUR WAY YOU DESTROY THE OPPONENT AT ALL COSTS. WAKE UP AMERICA

R. Smith   May 3rd, 2008 12:41 pm ET

Just saw your footage on Guam primary and we're amazed and dissapointed in your lack of research. You showed pictures of islanders in Yap, not Guam, on the beach waving at an airplane. Please be accurate. (try googling Guam and find out about 5-star hotels and a thriving international business community.

marianna   May 3rd, 2008 12:41 pm ET

Go Obama, go, soon you'll have 500 votes in Guam, or 55% and you"ll score a win of another small population, like Alaska (75% or 302 votes), or Maine (60% or 2079 votes). What a sweeping landslide victory!

Go Obama, go – to Guam or Indonesia – and don't come back

Sinno   May 3rd, 2008 12:40 pm ET

I'm not an american, but I want Obama to be the president of USA, cause he seems to be the person who can stop US mistakes, and once again show the world a good side of America. Whole world is watching you guys, I mean you Americans, don't make a mistake this time… we all the rest of the world hade Enough of Bush policy, it is time for change. YES YOU CAN!!!YES YOU CAN!!!YES YOU CAN!!!

Yet another undemocratic caucus. It's no coincidence that Obama wins caucuses. Most workng Americans with lives do not have time to sit at a caucus all day. All states and US territories should have primaries and it should be winner take all. Then we wouldn't be in this mess. The Democrats have a terrible primary system.

oladayo akinniyi   May 3rd, 2008 12:30 pm ET

George Sneed   May 3rd, 2008 12:30 pm ET

Obama needs to win all three of the next contests and then maybe Hillary will throw in the towel. Go Obama

pauleywanna   May 3rd, 2008 12:30 pm ET

Offering Guam residents full US Citizenship
Offering the US a gas tax holiday

Hillary can't do these two things by herself! Pure political
pandering of the most shameless sort! She would need
to introduce bills and get them through Congress and past
the President's desk for these two things to happen. Wake
up, folks.

Chris   May 3rd, 2008 12:30 pm ET

VJ. The General Election polls are grossly misleading. The polls are being taken when there are 2 democratic candidates. Imagine if there were 2 republican candidates, the polls will be very different. Once we get a nominee, we will be able to see the accuracy of the polls for general election. By then, most democrats will rally with the nominee, regardless of Hillary or Obama.

Carolyn   May 3rd, 2008 12:29 pm ET

Drew Melbourne   May 3rd, 2008 12:29 pm ET

A little historical perspective: In 1960, there were Democratic primary contests in only 16 states. Among those, Kennedy competed in 8, enough to secure him the majority of the pledged delegates. From there, it was on to the Los Angeles democratic convention where party bosses — the super delegates of their day — made up the delegations from 34 other states, and back room deals sealed his nomination.

By comparison, the Democratic primary race of 2008 is the model of true democracy. I believe this is the first time that a Democractic race has extended (and remained competitive) through every state and territory. With this many states, of course the candidates will have to be somewhat deliberative with their resource allocation. Let's just be grateful that we live in a country and a time where every Democratic voter gets their say.

Unless you live in the Michigan or Florida.

That said, I'm for Barack all the way.

Nelson Masha   May 3rd, 2008 12:29 pm ET

Its my hope that Guam will be for Obama by the end of the day. And on tuesday it will be up to NC and Indiana to make that needed difference in this election, once for all; this is a chance for life time for Indiana to actually decide this election to vote in large number for Obama, and that after few hours will force Billary Clinton to step aside, so the democratic party, and the American people unite and focus on the general election in November.

Her political pandering has done enough damage, look what she is talking – Gas holiday, ashort term vision just to win primary and that is at all cost stupidify the voters in all manners; just like persuading young kids using sweet and chocolate. Lets end this entitlement status of Hilllary clinton and be Americans that really whats at stake.

Incoming Sniper Fire   May 3rd, 2008 12:29 pm ET

John   May 3rd, 2008 12:29 pm ET

My family and I voted early for Obama in North Carolina.

Yes we can. Obama 08.

Cheryl   May 3rd, 2008 12:29 pm ET

You who call for Clinton to leave the race are so biased and closed minded. Hasn't it occurred to you that the DNC set the dates of the elections and the National Convention and since neither candidate will reach the magic number, both are more than entitled to stay. If this is dragging on it's their fault. Next time schedule 13 weeks with 4 states voting per week and DO NOT SCHEDULE THE CONVENTION IN AUGUST.

How can they complain about a battle all the way to the convention when they set the date. Almost every member of the rules and bylaws committee that did the scheduling and rules are super-delegates.

NOT TO MENTION the fact that because this race is still going we have registered millions of new democratic voters.

I say let the race run it's course – anything can happen. The super-delegates have a commitment to consider all facts in whom they will vote for, the least of which is how their home state voted. Too much has happened since the early primaries.

The system will be tested to the last second and we will finally see that drastic changes are needed to make it fair for all voters and candidates.

Clinton has shown herself to be able to stand the pressure, I am not so confident in Obama. Yes, she did question why she seemed to get the first questions but she has never hedged or faltered over her answers. Obama does not seem to have the experience to pull this off. And this is why I believe we need, with the world in the shape it is in, the absolute most experience democratic president possibly and that is just not Obama, not in 2008 – maybe in 2016. He has alot to learn and one is to stop throwing a fit when he gets questions he does not like. He cannot do this to world leaders, he can't leave a conference and whine about the questions they threw at him. I do not believe he is mature or experienced enough yet to be president.

NOT YET COMMITED   May 3rd, 2008 12:29 pm ET

Shame…. May 3rd, 2008 12:13 pm ET said…………
That’s great news for Hillary.

Now she can parachute into Guam Capital to claim ‘Mission Accomplished’ right before she tells the natives how her Daddy rowed in a tiny boat all the way from America to pick coconuts and spend time with the natives.

I hear she promised full US Citizenship for the natives; if this was so important why didn’t her husband do this when he was President? Oh, that doesn’t matter because the Clintons are brand new each and every day because Hillary is like a cat, many lives and many lies.

Hillary Clinton, Do and Say Anything ‘08

LOL…LOL……….

Shannon   May 3rd, 2008 12:28 pm ET

proving Hillary's point, he can win Guam, she can win California and New York. The politics of hope and change is one sleazy business, and hopefully people will wake up before it's to late. The fake video circulated about the Clinton campaign is just another example of Obama saying one thing and doing another. He is a joke, and he will do anything to win!

Greg   May 3rd, 2008 12:28 pm ET

Guam still has 5 super delegates and the Chair that Obama endorsed in Guam (who is a Super) is winning in a landslide.

susan   May 3rd, 2008 12:28 pm ET

Hillary is making people believe that she is about to win NC and Indiana,is her way of getting people to vote for her, it's not true she is loosing , too bad people believe this woman (politics as usual). you American people please stop this woman, don't let her destroy you, the whole world is looking at you getting fooled again as four years ago when you ended up re-electing George B. despite what he did to you and the rest of the world. NC and Indiana, you have the power to do so tuesday coming. Please remember the more the prymaries are going on the more the democratic party is hurting and the difficult the healinmg and uniting will be.

My Opinion   May 3rd, 2008 12:27 pm ET

How long is CNN going to show on their politics front page that Obama is losing support in the polls. This is old news, this just shows their basis towards his rival.

Campbell Brown on CNN election center and Lou Dobbs are too obvious. Lou Dobbs calls his self an independent, but underneath; he's a self righteous republican.

Chris   May 3rd, 2008 12:27 pm ET

You know what is interesting. If the media and Hillary are accusing of Obama of staying in the church, half of the Congress should be sacked because they belonged to the Catholic church – using the same logic. Hillary said, she would have got up and left but surprisingly Rev. Wright was called in to advice Bill and HIllary during Bill's affairs and he was given a reception by the Clinton. Even in the most desperate times, have you heard Obama bring this up. This is the type of President I want.

Clintons are hypocrites. We need Hope.. We need clean politics and we need Obama.

A Realist   May 3rd, 2008 12:27 pm ET

I can't believe that all these voters are still voting for Obama! OPEN UP YOUR EYES!! I had a feeling that he is an elitist even before it was talked about. If he is elected, he definitely will work for the educated, and the rich. He looks down on the poor and the less educated, do we really want that? A charismatic speaker is all he is, don't be fooled! He is such a fake. WAKE UP AMERICA!!

Nora, FLORIDA   May 3rd, 2008 12:26 pm ET

HIllary Clinton ROCKS!

I'm sure Obama will use Guam to say he's still viable, bummer they can't vote in the general election for him while MI & FL will finally have their voices heard and vote for Hillary Clinton or McCain.

Bitter Islander   May 3rd, 2008 12:26 pm ET

This woman's pandering knows no limits! I was watching yet another Clinton political advertisement, waiting for her to start talking about meeting with a single mother in Agana, or Dededo who needed healthcare but none was available. Or how she will make the military presence there as strong as it was before her husband all but closed the military infrastructure during his administration. Hafa Adai also means goodbye Mrs Clinton, please don't come back!

Obama '08

Mike in CA   May 3rd, 2008 12:24 pm ET

I'm sure if Obama wins Guam, Clinton will just use it as another "example" of her argument that activists like MoveOn must be flooding into these caucuses to intimidate her supporters (because clearly Clinton supporters are so easily-intimidated?).

VJ   May 3rd, 2008 12:24 pm ET

Obama can't win in General election in November,mainly the polls show that Hillary is strong with Mccain in November. How any one can say that Hillary ignore small states. She is the one asking every vote should be counted and Obama is the one who doesn't want to count Michigan and Florida voters as Hillary is always doing better in bigger states. So, Obama supporters pl. stop saying she doesn't care small states.

Go Hillary'08. Clintons embraced values with all sectors of the America in the past, including African Americans, which makes us to believe, you are the best fit to be our president.

MikeT   May 3rd, 2008 12:23 pm ET

Not for long

10 of 21 precincts in; Obama clings to 6% lead

10 island municipalities have been accounted for as of 1:50am Sunday, with Obama garnering 719 votes (53%), leading Clinton's 629 votes (47%). Pilar Lujan is the leading vote-getter for the Democratic Party of Guam chairperson seat with 682 votes.

sam-MA   May 3rd, 2008 12:21 pm ET

Clinton must drop out right away. There is no chance whatsoever for her to become the nominee. Neither can she win in November general election against McCain should she "bulldozer" her way through the nomination.

Dawn   May 3rd, 2008 12:20 pm ET

At least Guam has the good sense to know a fake when they see one. I wish that Indiana and North Carolina would see through her lies. The media certainly isn't revealing what they know to be true about Hillary……she doesn't really mind dividing the country down the middle, even if it costs the democrats the election. She is a republican when it suits her (Bill O'Reilly) and a bleeding heart liberal when that helps her cause (gun slingin, whiskey drinkin good ole boy). Go Guam! Go Obama!

Chris   May 3rd, 2008 12:20 pm ET

The divisive politics she has been plying HAVE NOT been highlighted on the news nearly enough. I hope voters see through her anything to win scams. She is running like a republican!

Reelverse   May 3rd, 2008 12:20 pm ET

If primaries keep breaking even, I figure Obama needs about 90 more superdelegates.

Interesting race.

Mary   May 3rd, 2008 12:20 pm ET

Why are you so way behind in the count?

a p   May 3rd, 2008 12:20 pm ET

EVERYONE:

I just heard both Hillary and Obama speak last night, and to tell you the truth, either one of them will make a fine president — much better than McCain. So let us not give the republicans more weapons to turn against our candidates — let's pull for either of them to represent us in November, because we need the democratic party– OUR party– to be on top again and help the economy, end these senseless wars, help our nation and the environment. The bottom line, isn't that what we care about ?Let us join together against this mess the republicans have driven us into. Vote democratic, be patriotic, do it for your country. Be mature and responsible. STOP ATTACKING the candidates.

chris   May 3rd, 2008 12:19 pm ET

If you Hillarites, talk about caucuses and pooh them which I expect you to do, that's Hillary fault. She knows she could have won if she had a back-up plan, but NO, she ignored the caucuses and small states. Voters won't forget that, and you and Hillary should Never ignore one single voter or election system IF you want to win.

NO TO HILLARY   May 3rd, 2008 12:19 pm ET

LOL yeah Rick ClintonNewsNetwork is all about positive news for Obama. WAAAAAH Hillary supporters.

joe   May 3rd, 2008 12:19 pm ET

Hillary will fail miserably! I would call America to see through this woman. She is about to sell our goverment to foreign goverments. What a pathetic power hungry woman!

Mario   May 3rd, 2008 12:18 pm ET

Hillay care about power only. Look at paul vs clinton google it . So to all Nc and IN be sure you pick the right candidate, don't be fool this time let's this over ..To start the second round with McCain..

Eddie   May 3rd, 2008 12:18 pm ET

Agree with Bill's last sentence above — Indiana and NC can bring this damage to the (Demogratic) Party to an end.

Jan from Boca Raton   May 3rd, 2008 12:18 pm ET

Hey, Bill

I haven't heard Obama utter one word about Guam, so does that mean he really cares?
.

Every Single poll shows if Obama is the Nominee, McCain will
win the election.

LETS ALL REMEMBER WHO THE ANTI AMERICAN IS????

alexa   May 3rd, 2008 12:17 pm ET

The DNC doesn't care about Florida and Michigan. Their mantra is "we don't want to count their votes because they obviously voted the wrong way". Guam cannot vote in the presidential election yet the DNC will not count Florida and Michigan.

Kathy in Oregon   May 3rd, 2008 12:17 pm ET

Hey Bill — calm down.

Hillary is NOT dividing the party. Some voters simply choose to support a candidate who is QUALIFIED (a.k.a experienced) enough for the most important "job" in our country.

I think it's the Obama supporters who have carelessly voted for a man who is NOT yet ready for priime time. He is clueless. And I don't know if I could vote for him.

God help our country if Obama wins….things could go from bad to worse very quickly.

Antony   May 3rd, 2008 12:17 pm ET

This is just a dead news. The game for Pledged delegates, Popular votes and numbers of states won is over! Hillary can not win Obama on any of those rules again in this Primary.
I would not be surprised if she is still running after Jan 21st 2009 when Obama' s term as President of United states starts

angelina st paul mn   May 3rd, 2008 12:17 pm ET

CNN please report the facts, you dont have to show that you support billarys, however, just try to be somewhat journalistic and real if not follow the facts which hrere are \the numbers:
188 to 105…that's 64% to 36%.

I wouldn't call that a small lead.

also your misleading title "Polls show Obama losing support," whihc has been at the top of the list is not true……….. but you keep it there at the top of the list while you ignore Paul vs. clinton (the fraud of the century). Not even Al Capone could pull that one.

AJ - North Carolina   May 3rd, 2008 12:16 pm ET

Hey Bill – I voted early for Hillary here in North Carolina! =)

YES SHE CAN!!!! HILLARY 2008

tefta   May 3rd, 2008 12:16 pm ET

According to KUAM in Guam – 10 villages in – Obama 719 (53%) – Clinton 629 – (47%)

Democrats Unify   May 3rd, 2008 12:16 pm ET

All democrats, it's time to unify and unite the party against John McCain. I know there are some Hillary supporters that are disappointed, but even Obama supporters would be disappointed if he was behind in the delegate count & states won. However, my point is, we need to unite. We know it's mathematically impossible for Sen. Clinton to win the nomination. If we are honest with ourselves, all states that Sen. Clinton won, the so called big states are democratic states, there is no way NY, CA, NJ or states like that will go republican, and Sen. Obama did not loose by a huge margin. However, Sen. Obama has won even the so called red states, the smaller states in huge margin, these are the states that will help us have a democrat as the next president. I request everyone to unite, and vote for Obama. If we are honest with ourselves, go to CNN delegate counter, and play around with the delegate mapping and u will find out that even if 25% of the superdelegates vote for Obama he will be the nominee, but Sen. Clinton needs more than 75% of the remaining superdelegates. We the people have already decided, and that's why Sen. Obama has won more states, more pledged delegates. Well, you may say MI & FL are not counted, again if we are honest, Sen. Clinton herself said that they won't count when she began this campaign, and in MI Obama's name was not even on the ballot. So, to be fair, we need to support whoever the nominee is. It looks like Sen. Obama will be the nominee, and he has a new vision for our nation, he thinks about the future of the country, not just this generation, but more generations to come. God Bless America. Please Vote Democrat in November.

Rick   May 3rd, 2008 12:16 pm ET

Can you legally post the results of a vote before the voting polls close? It's just another way for CNN to back their candidate with favorable coverage.

Hillary wants voting rights for Guam?
After she loses today, lets see if we EVER hear her say that again.

I have never, ever seen a candidate go from state to state and pander so openly and unashamedly promising each group all that she has to offer and keep getting away with it.

I really wish Obama DID play the game more and create a list of all the promises she has made to all the people she's met, never to mention them again once she has left town.

HILARY CLINTON NEEDS TO LEAVE FOR THE GOOD OF THE PARTY SHE FOUGHT A GOOD FIGHT JUST GIVE WE WANT CHANGE IN THE NATION AND SINCE SHE IS TO OLD TO SPELL CHANGE SHE NEED TO LEAVE SO BARACK CAN GO AHEAD AND WIPE THE FLOOR WITH REPUBLICAN JHON MCCAIN IN NOVEMBER

GoHillary   May 3rd, 2008 12:14 pm ET

Hillary actually visited Guam has Obama? No

james   May 3rd, 2008 12:14 pm ET

I am a white blue color worker and I am voting for obama. He is speaking to our children about books and studying hard as Hillary showed them how to go to bars and drink. Simple example smart choice. Obama all the way here in Indiana!

chris   May 3rd, 2008 12:14 pm ET

GO GUAM! If any one knows about tides and turning them you do. Go Obama.

Did Wright hurt Obama??? Will PaulvClinton.com hurt Billary???
Either you are with her or you are on the winning team!!!

Justin Nelson   May 3rd, 2008 12:13 pm ET

HILLARY SHOULD DROP OUT!!!!!!!!

Shame....   May 3rd, 2008 12:13 pm ET

That’s great news for Hillary.

Now she can parachute into Guam Capital to claim ‘Mission Accomplished’ right before she tells the natives how her Daddy rowed in a tiny boat all the way from America to pick coconuts and spend time with the natives.

I hear she promised full US Citizenship for the natives; if this was so important why didn’t her husband do this when he was President? Oh, that doesn’t matter because the Clintons are brand new each and every day because Hillary is like a cat, many lives and many lies.

Hillary Clinton, Do and Say Anything ‘08

Justin Nelson   May 3rd, 2008 12:12 pm ET

NICE WEB SITE!

Yes Joe - Raleigh, NC.   May 3rd, 2008 12:12 pm ET

So is Obama going to use this to say that the tide is turning? A small island on the other side of the world which hasn't heard about Rev. Wright and all of his anti-American rhetoric? Obama has an office there and has his half-sister from Hawaii campaigning there.

jmfbsl@triad.rr.com   May 3rd, 2008 12:12 pm ET

What are the Guam delegate split rules?, i.e. how is the third delegate allocated?

John Farmer

I like Hillary but lets get real.   May 3rd, 2008 12:12 pm ET

If Senator Obama wins, I will support him. Especially after the experts
say that his gas tax plan is the best. After all, Rev. Wright won't be standing at the gas pump when we are filling up our tanks at $7.00 a
gallon.

Dee Garrett   May 3rd, 2008 12:12 pm ET

Why are the Clinton Supporters still complaining about Media bias, when in fact for the past 2months they have been attacking Obama? Stop the crying Clinton Supporters it'll all be over soon and Obama can move from the Soft Republican(Clinton) to the actual Republican( McCain).

Obama 2008

Bill   May 3rd, 2008 12:11 pm ET

Hillary doesn't care about Guam…Her mantra is, SCREW EM…..What did they ever do for me?????

Hillary shows her real side all to often and it is completely careless of her to pick and choose her support. Not enough has been made of her dividing our country and people into who she cares about and who she doesn't. It looks like Guam isn't going to take her crap. Too bad the 50 states cant follow Guam's lead…..

Indiana and North Carolina, it is up to you to end this misery that Hillary is making our Country go through..

Remy   May 3rd, 2008 12:11 pm ET

- Obama should treat Elitiste and Wrigth Remarks just as he forcefully did when he was Attaked abt HOPE ……….
- He has the necessary fortitude !
- He was inspinring abt Hope , he can certainly developp a similar inspiring way abt elitist and Wright .

– Been the Front Runner , you Obama should always Be Fired Up ..( No matter what )..Best way to defend yourself is ( to Inspire Big, uppon her Negative Attaks , Ok ? )

- Barack , you know how to do it .
- Obama do this thing.
-Just do it

BringBackTheKennedy's   May 3rd, 2008 12:10 pm ET

To put it in simple terms, we need to bring back Camelot. An administration similar to the leadership of the Kennedy administration would be good for the US. Barack is our best chance of this. He is stern and a man of his convictions. Stephen Colbert thinks Michelle is like Jackie O and I agree.

An administration with strong family values as the Obama's is crucial to turning this country around. I will admit, I did vote W in '04 and that was a mistake. We need someone to moderate this country, not throw it all the way to the left or right and regain the power and respect his country once had in the world.

Good Luck to the Obama Campaign!
and to those of you in IN and NC…Don't be stupid on Tuesday.

angelina st paul mn   May 3rd, 2008 12:10 pm ET

I am surprised this is eevn news…………… i am sure it will get rounded if it has not yet by cnn.and blitzer, who has crown billary already.

Lynn D   May 3rd, 2008 12:09 pm ET

Is the Guam primary a caucus state? I thought so. Is the general election done in caucus style? No. I didn't think so. Nothing further needs to be said.

JN   May 3rd, 2008 12:08 pm ET

Go Obama, go go Obama!!!!

lvq from WA   May 3rd, 2008 12:08 pm ET

I hope HRC wins in Guam. It's funny how everyone says how Obama is for change. Really how much change can Obama do in the first four years in office if he is elected. Everything he wants change will have to go thru the house and senate before he even sees anything?

It will take him four years just to figure out who's who. Oh wait a minute, thats right, he'll have all those clinton traders working for him now. Makes you wonder… those are the same advisors who were advising the clintons. They helped the HRC in the past giving her advice how do you think she made her decisions, she counted on her advisors and they all failed her.

busterdog   May 3rd, 2008 12:05 pm ET

Who says the people of Guam aren't smart! It may only be a few delegates gained here but everyone counts. Gee, with 4 delegates up for grabs and Obama leading, would Hillary call that "gaining momentum?" Hopefully the people of North Carolina and Indiana will be equally as smart and support Obama…our best chance for change, truthfulness, sincereity, honesty and positive leadership. It's time for no more of the same old crap and it will take someone "new" and "refreshing" to make that happen. Yes we can!

Kathy   May 3rd, 2008 12:05 pm ET

Oh common..it does not matter if Obama wins Guan or Guam or whatever the name is..

Hillary won big states…

Tom   May 3rd, 2008 12:05 pm ET

Caucases do not count!! Only states that Hillary won count!!

jimbo   May 3rd, 2008 12:05 pm ET

who cares… no, I don't say that because I think if Obama is leading it doesn't matter. I am saying this because we all know the caucuses are stupid and undemocratic. FACT. If it wasn't for caucuses Hillary would have put this away a long, long time ago.

and this they call a democracy… shame

HAPPY MARIE CHANTAL   May 3rd, 2008 12:04 pm ET

How pathetic has this gotten

were down to Guam

Guam

90% of the people in this country couldn't find it on a map or come within

1000 miles

Mark   May 3rd, 2008 11:59 am ET

If you're a Hillary fan then Guam won't count… She doesn't believe in Caucuses… unless she was winning more of them… I hope it all ends this tuesday but i have a fear they will split. If Hillary wins by 9% it's a landslide but if Obama wins by 9% it's to close to call… go figure.

Marcella McEwing   May 3rd, 2008 11:59 am ET

I must be realy stupid. I have been under the impression that Hilary or McCain could not possibly be president if elected, this summer. So please tell me how they can have a gas holiday to help my pocketbook this summer? Obama makes the most sense in the long range planning which he can do if elected in November.

Lorna, NY   May 3rd, 2008 11:59 am ET

Go Barak…Let's close this deal!

Sliv   May 3rd, 2008 11:58 am ET

That's more than a 10% lead. Hillary's lead in PA was less than 10%, down from polls touting a 20% lead, and you all called it huge!

You are so into discounting smaller contests and using large ones as momentum busters for Obama. How are you going to play 31 contest wins for Obama vs. 15 for Clinton? Only the 15 are important states?

Keep the results coming. Go Obama

Angela Butler   May 3rd, 2008 11:58 am ET

Dear sirs,
I am writting to you because I believe that this president race is TOTALLY unfair! Mr.Obama, has a lead not due to his experience, of which he has none, but souly because Oparh winfrey swore she would buy his president place with whatever she had to give!!!! I
totally agree that he( Obama) would not be where he is if he was white! Mrs. Clinton has 18 years of experience, she has proved over and over again that she is FOR the people. A gas tax break, YES, Obama NO???? Some thing so small yet would mean alot to the american people and yet Obama doesn't even want to do that, So what will happen when it comes to something large????
We the people have the right to have a leader that is for us and not for themselves! We need a
LEADER NOT A EGO!!!!

Sincerly ,
Angela Butler

Ade, Memphis   May 3rd, 2008 11:57 am ET

Even Guamites know that it is time for a change.
It is time to turn off the TV, disregard media's biased reporting, and schemes. It is time to look at each candidate thoroughly by ourselves, and base our judgments on our guts, and not on the idiotic analysis from CNN, MSNBC, "Fallacy" News etc

Guam Voter   May 3rd, 2008 11:57 am ET

. . . The word in Washington is that there are only a about 100 seats
left on the Obama train, so next week every delegate will be scrambling
to endorse Senator Obama.

Yes We Can

Jonas   May 3rd, 2008 11:56 am ET

Looks like Hillary is sneaking up on Obama. You guys have to remember shes considred the "come back kid"..

Just Politics   May 3rd, 2008 11:56 am ET

And the headline will read Obama favored to carry Guam wins just another caucus state by narrow margin. And if a tree falls in Guam will anyone know it?

Apparently Hillary though it was important enough to pour campaign money that she doesn't have into that caucus state. A win is a win right Hillbag?

Tony, Wilton, ME   May 3rd, 2008 11:56 am ET

Since Obama is leading, Guam will be of little consequence. Were Hillary leading – it would be yet another sign of Hillary's electability ignoring that Guam residents have no vote in the general elections.

Katherine   May 3rd, 2008 11:55 am ET

Mike Cairo, NY   May 3rd, 2008 11:55 am ET

Guam, where the minimum wage laws don't apply to US citizens thanks to Nancy Pelosi. Now they are in the spotlight, bring up this issue!

Jenny   May 3rd, 2008 11:54 am ET

I am so sad about the way the media has taken sides with Rev. Wright issue. I have never seen a whole President of America lying on TV than Mr Bush has and yet nobody questions him about it. Now listen to what John McCann said that the Iraq war was for purely oil. I think the American people are smart enough not to destroy a candidate whose aim is to bridge the divide in the america and the world. Look the world is tired of these lies by Senator Clinton and John McCann about this. The media has a role to play for America to get a better person for president than somebody who will further divide America and the world.

Michael   May 3rd, 2008 11:54 am ET

Good :D

Cowboy Jack   May 3rd, 2008 11:54 am ET

WOW, 4 whole delegates at stake…. i wonder if Obama outspent Hillary here too?

Charlotte   May 3rd, 2008 11:54 am ET

Democrats are still on opposite sides of at about 50/50 give or take. We are in a battle of the century…

faye   May 3rd, 2008 11:54 am ET

Guam knows it is time for change, and Obama is the one to do just that.

Jona, Denver, CO   May 3rd, 2008 11:53 am ET

You guys are a little behind, Guam Pacific Daily News now reporting Obama at 719 votes (53.3%) after 10 districts counted; Clinton at 629 (47.7%).

Makes we wonder why it takes 9 hours to count 1348 ballots LOL

LeeJ   May 3rd, 2008 11:49 am ET

Fresh questions are being raised in the wake of Hillary's much-publicized comments questioning why Bush failed to stop Chinese investors from moving Magnequench to China and closing the Northwest Indiana plant.

If the sale of the company to Chinese investors was going to jeopardize national security, why did President Bill Clinton's administration approve it in 1995?

Says Hillary…….
"Magnequench made the sophisticated magnets needed to guided "smart bombs." Today, bomb-makers have to buy the magnets from the Chinese."

Kevin Griffis, Indiana spokesman for U.S. Sen. Barack Obama, said Hillary Clinton's comments about Magnequench were part of "Washington game-playing" in which "people are willing to say anything to win an election."

Can we get beyond sound bites and REALLY vote on issues??

Alex   May 3rd, 2008 11:47 am ET

I hope N. Carolinians and the Hoosiers are as smart and perceptive as the citizens of Guam. (Dont know what they are called.)
I never thought that my feelings for someone could turn from sympathy and pity (The Monica Lewinsky scandal) to utter disgust, in the space of a few years but there you have it.

Ken   May 3rd, 2008 11:46 am ET

That is great!

No, report on Peter Paul vs. Clinton.

Sure   May 3rd, 2008 11:45 am ET

Too bad they don't count in November.

Charlotte   May 3rd, 2008 11:44 am ET

You can google anything, it does not have to be true! I cannot believe what can be put on youtube. Larry Sinclair is right up there with PaulvClinton. If the Obama-bots want to continue their blog of lies so can the Clintionites….The lies are plentiful on some google sites..

chepsy   May 3rd, 2008 11:44 am ET

ok, so its still within the same margin expressed in your last blog titled "Early Guam returns show slight Obama lead"…but…hmm… slight lead or not? :D

Way to go Obama. People of all walks of life understand you and Believe in your ability. We won't let Rev Wright, and Hilary McCain Clinton stop you. We need our bridges to be safe. I drive on them everyday. I don't want to die at the poor judgments of Hilary and McCain. Our bridges collapse once and we have a lot of work to be done in keeping them safe. What about creating jobs? What will happen when we have no money to maintain our bridges? The Answer -jobs are lost.

Go Obama!

Ken Austin, TX   May 3rd, 2008 11:39 am ET

Nice job Barack! Let's reverse this "momentum". Hillary is disfavored even amongst U.S. territories.
