As A catholic, I can only speak for my own faith. We are taught that abortion and birth control are forbidden. we should live by the ten commandments, we are not supposed to divorce.
I wonder why the world isn't a better place if everyone who is going to church is clinging to what their priests or preachers are preaching. Before you vote, examine your own conscious, and if you truly believe that you are practicing your faith to the fullest and doing everything you hve heard from your priests or pastors or preachers, then you have the right to judge Senator Obama's relationship with his pastor.
Try to put aside race, gender and vote based on who you think is truly the candidate that is really concerned about the people and where we are going and who is in this just to win.
We are voting for our future and the future of our children, this is too important a decision to be fighting over.

Obama is not responsible of what Rev Wright says, nor do I believe he shares the same views. The problem is he says he is bringing change. He says many of us are caught up in the views of the sixties and he is bringing a new view which will unite. Yet he had this guy as an advisor who is stuck in that radical viewpoint. A lot of us know people, who we are friendly with whose views we may think is a little extreme. It may not stop us from being friendly, but if we were running for anything we would not have this person as an advisor . Obama had to be aware of all of Wright's views, he just took a chance on it not turning on him. Maybe he wanted the support of those who shares Wrights point of view on the QT.

HILLARY JUMPS ON ANY PLAN THAT SHE FEELS WILL GET HER VOTES. SHE TOOK JOHN MCCANES GAS TAX IDEA AND USED IT AS HER OWN. PEOPLE SHOULD SEE THAT IT WILL COST JOBS . SHE PLATFORMS ON JOBS, JOBS, AND MORE JOBS. IF SHE HAD A PLAN OF HER OWN HER BRAINS WOULD EXPLODE. I AM CHANGING MY VOTE TO THE MAN THAT TELLS IT LIKE IT IS "OBAMA" SHARON IN LOUISVILLE

I can't imagine a grown man attending the same church for 20years and not being awared to all the hate that his preacher was preaching. Now i understand Obama , according to him he was listening only to the good preaching and not to the hate preaching,well just like Rev. Wright said ,"Obama is a politician and he will say what politicians say to get elected".Obama is a man with poor judgement and divisive beliefs. If this man hasn't change himself ,how can he change this country.

Barack Obama appears to be taking a line from George Bush in reguard to his opinion on the gas relieve. Like in the Iraq war, "We must stay the course." No gas tax relief. Speaking of the war, Obama was not even in the senate at that time. He really doesn't know for sure how he would VOTE under the same circumstances. He blows a lot of nothing.

Somewhere there is a science that reads peoples expressions and mannerisms that indicates how people process the world around them. As individuals, we "sense" this body language. I see Barack Obama in the photo above as a visionary, looking to the futurem looking for solutions – and I see H Clinton feeling attacked, and with distain, she needs to defend herself. We need wisdom and healing in this country, no more fighting everyone that doesn't agree with us.

Democrats are doomed to loose the elections in November. Unless?All that, thanks to Hillary. No matter what happened she cann't properly win the nomination because the numbers are not on her side Unless it were to be stolen from Obama in which case scenario would definitely turn off most of the Obama's supporters including the Obama strong base; black voters( Democrats strong base too) and young voters. As an Obama supporter, i frankly beleive that Obama has been critically hurt during this longlasting primary due to the recent controversies and to the negative attacks by both campaign.
Either case scenario, democrats will come out with a weak candidates against Jonh Mccain.
Democrarts in Indianna and N.C it's up to you guys to put an end to that.

Jon- What an arrogant post. Most of my friends and coworkers support Clinton. We are all professionals who don't see value in such comments and are quite frankly tired of hearing how Clinton supporters are uneducated. I follow the political process carefully and the more I see of Obama, the more I have fear of his indecisiveness and lofty talk. Most of the posts I read from Obama supporters are immature and offer to the conversation.

No CNN, you cannot conclude that the race is "tightening" merely because of a one-percent fluctuation in the so-called "poll of polls," when the polls themselves are only accurate to within 4 percentage points.

Didn't anyone at CNN every take a course in statistics?

Hillary will lose both Indiana and North Carolina, and then maybe she will do us all a favor and take a bow. Out.

Now Americans are finally beginning to THINK and really LISTEN. And what they're hearing and thinking says HILLARY CLINTON!

Can there be any doubt? Only to the uneducated!

ANY CANDIDATE THAT WOULD SPEND MILLIONS OF THEIR OWN MONEY FOR A JOB THAT ONLY PAYS 400,000 A YEAR TO ME IS EITHER CRAZY OR PLANS ON GETTING IT BACK BY ANY KIND OF MEANS. SO PEOPLE WHO VOTES FOR HILLARY BE CAREFUL. CAUSE IT HAS A REAL BAD SMELL TO IT AND ITS NOT ROSES THAT FOR SURE.
DAVID

I don't care that Obama is black – I care that he's green

CNN IS NOT FAIR WHEN IT CONCERNS POSITIVE COMMENTS TOWARD OBAMA THAT IN ITSELF SHOULD BE A CALL FOR BIAS UNFAIR IMPUT THROUGH TELECOMMINCATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

cnn please post my comments

. . . and a lot of Americans are beginning to wake up to the fact that Obama is nothing more than a snake oil salesman.

And here they come ladies and gentleman the filly "
Flim Fam " and the stud "Yack a Lot" ! What a horse race of monstrous under expectations! Whose nose will slip under the wire of "America will lose " first ? Isn't it exciting! Gives me the hives!

CNN IS NOT FAIR WHEN IT CONCERNS POSITIVE COMMENTS TOWARD OBAMA THAT IN ITSELF SHOULD BE A CALL FOR BIAS UNFAIR IMPUT THOUGHT TELECOMMINCATION!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

when you think about voting for clinton,think about this:
peter paul vs clinton

white gate- bill and his adulterous behavior

travel gate – when the clintons fired several of the people in his administration and gave those jobs to family and friends.

catle gate- when hilliary and bill committed fraud against those small business owners and took their life savings, whenothers invested theire retirement was taken and some of these people committed suicide.

last but not least when 900 hundred files went missing out of the white house when bill was impeached. so all of you hilliary supporters do our research. the clintons are still being investigated for corruption.

The American voters are beginning to see the light - and see right through Obama, the snake oil salesman!

CNN IS NOT FAIR WHEN IT CONCERNS POSITIVE COMMENTS TOWARD OBAMA THAT IN ITSELF SHOULD BE A CALL FOR BIAS FAIR IMPUT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

go hillary

obama obama, you have to be out your mind if you don't think obama will win on tuesday well my vote is for obama.

Why does this not surprise me? I mean, voters gave Bush a second term, and look how that has turned out! I know that change can be scary, but it can also be enlightening, powerful, and downright positive. Let's not repeat the Clinton years, years of partisan gridlock, high price sleepovers and scandals, or the Bush years (McCain). Let's give the brilliant new guy a shot. He can only bring the country up!

Obama, his preacher and his wife have caused more hate between blacks and whites than ever before. He is not uniting us at all, he has created such a divide that it will take years to get over. I rather have four more year of Bush than all this hatred.

Now, can someone tell me who is going negative?

CNN:
You have given new meaning to the words:
"drinking the koolaid"
"in the tank"
"blind faith"
"turning a deaf ear and a blind eye"

"Comments are moderated by CNN, in accordance with CNN COMMENT POLICY and may not appear on this blog until they have been reviewed and deemed appropriate for posting"
The fourth comment from the top must be an inside job or a joke in poor taste?

Character counts. Much more so in the President. If Obama participated in Wright's church for twenty (2) years he can not say that he did not know. Obama is lying and denouncing his spiritual and inspirational leader (as he himself says in his book) just for political expediency. Obama turned against his own for personal gain. Character counts !!

Honkies- how about using some decent language Obama supporter?

Hillary,
just LIES, LIES, LIES

Did hear her speak today. Nothing but lies and promises she can't give. Healthcare. She failed that in 1992. Gas tax. She won't even be president to authorize it. Keep believing in all her empty promises. She gives what she gets….nothing!

IT SO SAD THAT NOW THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE GOING TO BE FORCED TO ELECT AN AFFIRMATIVE ACTION PRESIDENT. WAKE UP AMERICA . WHAT HAPPEN TO THE BEST QUALIFIED PERSON.HAVEN'T WE HAD ENOUGH OF THIS GIMMICK.

Biased, biased, biased!!! Shame on you CNN. You are on the wrong side of history with your Hilary. You have been writing negative stories on Obama even when convention wisdom, demands that there is nothing negative to write home about. You need to back to journalism schools. What a way to finish yourselves. Publish this if you have any decency.

Senator Obama ought not to count his chickens before they hatch. It appears to me that the voters have taken a better look at both candidates and decided that Senator Clinton has the knowledge, the experience, and the toughness to go up against Senator McCain in the fall. What Senator Clinton does not have is a lot of bad friends that can be used in a "swift boat" type ad in the fall. Senator Obama won the caucuses early on because none of the bad stuff was known at the time. Had the voters known then what they know now, he would be out of the race already. Senator Clinton is the best nominee for the Democratic Party and the voters are now acknowledging this fact.

Why won't CNN post my comments
Goodness..

It appear that the public needs to know that Hillary is not letting people know she is a lier..

New lie being told is she was a Colts fan years ago.. She is telling the IN people that she has always been a colts fan, her grandfather took her to the games in IN. Her grand father must have been rich, because he took her all across the country!
Because years ago they were in Baltimore!

If only everyone knew the truth about the Rev. Wright / Clinton plan to defeat Obama. I have listened to the entire Rev. Wright sermon that began all of this controversy. During this sermon. Rev. Wright extolls the virtues of the Clintons. He never mentions Obama. Rev. Wright loves the Clintons. He was their counselor and honored White House guest when Bill was President. Wake up America! Rev. Wright is purposely trying to derail the Obama campaign to elect his hero Hillary Clinton. This shamefull scam that the Clintons and Rev. Wright are perpetrating against an honerable man and potentially great President Obama is possible because the American media are a bunch of sheep who follow Hillary’s cues. A tiny bit of real jounalism would have quickly exposed this devious tactic by the Clintons to have their close confidant play the fool and link his idiocy unfairly to Obama.

I already voted early for Hillary, been making phone calls a month now for Hillary, and have yet to hear very many voters at all for Obama.
He is not trustworthy, never directly answers a question.
Has over played his race card. Is disrespectful of women, has no platform to stand on. Hillary has been fighting her whole life for kids and healthcare, he comes along in this race and takes her healthcare plan but leaves people out and tha makes him the savior?
I don't think so, and North Carolina WILL NOT be so NAIVE as VA, and SC. We're tossing him right out of our oven, like TN!

I just read all about Paul vs. Clinton, if your interested you can google it, because for some reason CNN isnt interested in Clinton campaign fraud or theft. People read this before voting. Not only does she lie, but here is a lawsuit all about the Clinton machine. After reading about this law suit. Go Obama!!

The United States Senate may vote any day on the stealth imposition of what could amount to an $845 BILLION United Nations style global tax on American citizens?

It's called the Global Poverty Act (S.2433), and it is being sponsored by none other than Senator Barack Obama.

According to some conservative sources, this disastrous legislation could eventually force U.S. taxpayers to fork over as much as 0.7 percent of the nation's Gross Domestic Product - or $845,000,000,000.00 - on welfare to third-world countries.

For all you who think that Obama is so great...his only legislation sent $15 million of your tax dollars to the Congo. As for his Reverend, please do not be so stupid to think anyone would hold him responsible for what the Reverend says – we hold him responsible for be irresponsible for exposing his children to such hatred, for condoning racism and anti-american sentiment, for maintaining a personal relationship exhibiting such poor judgment and last, but not least, for not having the balls to take care of the 'problem' a year ago.

If that is the way Senator Obama makes decisions on tough issues – the entire US would be obliterated before it would dawn on him that something was wrong!

Obama is a great guy i am sure but I think the Republican Morons will chew him up and spit him out! We need a tough and experienced candidate to go up against them in November. Hillary is just that candidate! Go Hillary!!!! Maybe Obama in 2016???????

You can't have it both ways. If you're happy with the government we have in Washington, D.C.........................vote for Clinton or McCaine. They've been there close to thirty years apiece.

If you're sick of the politicians in Washington and want a CHANGE, vote for Obama.

We're running out of time and opportunity to finally get this country back for the 'average' people.

Go Obama!!!

Idaho senior gal.

Clinton or Obama? The result is the same...

SOCIALISM here we come.....lets set the tax rate at 68% for the most productive members of our society and give it all to the people that live off taxation.

wow great change

Adios America

I believe Obama has the right plan for the gas tax. He and his campaign advisors listened to top economists. He is also talking from experience. This did not work in Illinois. He voted for a gas tax holiday there and 6 months later, realized it did not work. That is EXPERIENCE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! And experience where it truly impacts our current economic problem. His plan would be for long term resolutions.

So folks complaining about Clinton's gas plan must be those who insist on paying the highest prices possible and go out of their way to do so! This is not about pandering but about giving short term relief where it counts the most. Think about prices of food and commodities on the rise everywhere because the cost of transportation (read: fuel) is going up everywhere.

For Jon, the white male in NC who says almost no one is for HRC, and the few that are are uneducated, etc.

I am a highly educated white male here in Charlotte, employed by the local utility to help run a nuclear reactor. I follow politics quite closely, and I voted for Hillary Clinton. I simply refuse to cast a vote for someone I do not believe, and that is the case with Barack Obama. I am sure a lot of educated people are voting for each candidate, and have their own opinions. I certainly would not call someone uneducated just because they do not vote for my candidate...that would tend to make ME look uneducated by saying it.

So, I suggest you think about your generalizations before you hit SEND next time.

Anyone but Obama for '08

I agree with the comment posted 'GIVE PEACE A CHANCE". Obama continually shows his common sense, professional poise & judgement, and ability to lead us to a new and uplifting time in this, our country, the great U.S. of A. – before it is too late!!!

Hillary is a typical lying politician who claims experience because she "lived" in the White House for 8 years and she is a NYS Senator (who has done absolutely NOTHING for this State; unless you consider higher taxes and loss of jobs something) She outright lied to Cleveland claiming things she did in Buffalo that she did not.

Her joke of the gas tax holiday will save us pennies compared to the millions it will cost us later. You already can't drive down our roads and we drive over bridges in fear of them collasping! Way to go Hillary! ha! Your support of a tax holiday will not prevent the oil companies from rasing their prices anyway.

Fellow Amercians, please open your eyes and uncover your ears. Read between the lines and don't fall for more of the same corrupt political tactics.

VOTE OBAMA!!!!!!!

Nice try, "Abdula". Next time you try to smear Obama by pretending to be a radical African-American, don't make it so obvious.

Hillary is the best canidate for the democratic party. Obama is not seasoned enough, and I still find it very hard to believe that he was not inflluenced by his Pastor. You can not sit through 20 years of radical sermons wtihout agreeing with much of the material. Wake up Obama supporters, he is not what this Country needs. I garauntee that if the primaries were re-done today, Obama would be losing by huge numbers. His popularity is already declined significantly.

Go Hilllary I have been with you since the beginning and will support you all the way to the whitehouse.

How to judge the NC results:

Single-digit BO victory = BO defeat.

A Clinton win is impossible. The black vote will give BO 36-38% outright, so he only needs one out of five non-AA votes to win.

If the margin stays in single digits, the demographics will cast serious doubt on BO's electability.

If Clinton takes IN, and if the NC margin ends up even narrower, say 6 or 7 percent, the dynamics of this race will change dramatically.

THE LATEST CBS/NYTIMES POLLS ON REALCLEARPOLITICS.COM CONDUCTED FROM FRIDAY (4/1) TO SUNDAY (4/3) SHOWS OBAMA BEATING BOTH MCCAIN AND HILLARY CLINTON.

OBAMA 51% MCCAIN 40%

OBAMA 50% CLINTON 38%

For Abdulah Johnson, DC:
Thank you for your racial slams in your comment and exhibiting not only your bias, but an insight into your motivation. It has all too familiar ring from another ardent Obama supporter. It also substantiates CNN's blatant bias for Obama.

For CNN:
Allowing the above mentioned posted slams is extreme and insulting. If it is your desire to become better acquainted with the fervor and outlandish atmosphere of "The Huffington Post"; I salute you and Wolf Blitzer. He made a fine start with his interview of Ariana and the above post fits the bill of hate and bigotry.

If anyone hasn't, as of today, reviewed these three senators voting records and sponsored legislation, what are you waiting on? Are you expecting someone else to do it for you?

Our privelege to vote comes with the responsibility to make an informed decision. Exercise both.

Framing the candidacy as an issue of electability instead of an
expression of the will of the people, as demonstrated by popular vote, is a clever manipulation by the Clinton camp as they knew from the beginning, they could never win the nomination....so, best to start immediately to create doubt in the mind of voters, their chosen candidate, Obama might not be electable? Really..... how low can you go
Clinton?

If the GOP can run a 70+ candidate who is already forgetting his lines....
Mickey Mouse is more electable.

BTW Sue, I forgot to mention...

I remember 9-11 very clearly,... probably more than you. I was ironing my BDU (Battle Dress Uniform) and within minutes of the first plane hitting the WTC.... I was packing my bags getting ready to go to war.....

Giving all her support to Obama who doesn't pander about our country's future

Dear Jon,

Now you know a native North Carolinian with a BA in Political Science who supports Sen. Clinton. I also understand that the Democratic nominee not only has to have the capability to lead this nation but also a plan of action that adresses the important issues. I also understand that the November election is less that 90 days following the Democratic Convention and that the winner must win the most ELECTORAL votes.

Sen Clinton Not only has the capability and the reasonable, workable plan that address our most important issues, but has the voter base to win the majority of the ELECTORAL votes in November.

Obama is a dope and more people are finally starting to see that. He has no leadership skills, and has basically been bringing in the black vote to help him along. If he wasn't black and didn't have the black vote he would have been history long ago. I don't vote for somebody just because of the color of his skin, but obviously a lot of people do.

Isn't it interesting that people have forgotten how underhanded Hillary is? She touted the "dangeous" Bosnia trip years ago, even though it was on the media several times proving she was lying. How much do you want all the Whitewater scandal/Monica Lewinsky to be brought up again, which it WILL be, if she is the nominee? How nice was she to the people who worked in the White House when she was First Lady? She wasn't! Check the facts. Obama is the decent, most honest candidate possible, and he is NOT the typical Washington D.C. political machine, which the Clintons are. Put in the Clintons, and you have the same stuff happening again. And if you don't think the Republicans will come out in force to vote against Hillary, whom they hate, think again! Why do you think they are so much against Obama? He is their big challenge.

I don't think a 1% change is worth the headline stating that the race is tightening. I had more respect for CNN before the primaries. It's difficult to watch now because it is completely obvious that CNN is backing Hillary and the spin is making me dizzy!

Hillary is still behind in NC and now in Indiana. I guess the vorwrs are recognizing her gax tax rebate is riddled with sniper fire.

Does anyone else seem to notice that the pro-Clinton folks on this page seem to be the individuals who can't even put together a complete sentence. They also seem to be the people who make the extreme statements. Of course I am no surprised by this since most of the Clinton base are non-college educated.

Oh, and if you fall for this story about the lead in NC shrinking, then you need to study statistics. A one point fluctuation in a day is not something to get excited about. That's why polls have a margin of error that normally falls from 2-4%. That means that a significant move in the poll would be outside of the margin of error. Does that make sense Clinton supporters?

Come on Hillary!!! It's now up to the people of North Carolina, Indiana, and Oregon to get our country back on track by giving O'bama the decisive message! YOU DO NOT HAVE ENOUGH EXPERIENCE TO BE PRESIDENT! I know many of us believe McCain is a better alternative than O'bama! Please let's do the intelligent thing and get rid of the rock-star style of O'bama! There have been people fainting at his appearances-please!!! I hope the young voters of America know that is not the style that ensures the toughness of making the hard decisions!! We need the person who has stayed on the issues with real ideas throughout the campaign!!! Come on Hillary!!! Let's change the direction of this election this Tuesday!!! O'bama, your good friend Reverend Wright has exposed you as doing things for the sake of political expediency! You are not experienced enough and your rhetoric is not honest and forthright!

Why Obama can't be honest about his relationships with Rev. Wright and Mr. Ayers? Perhaps he is ashamed of Rev. Wright's teachings and Mr. Ayer's beliefs or he embraces same ideals with them but he doesn't want the voters to know about it. We can't tell.

Obama was in the Rev. Wright's church for 20 years and now he says everything Rev. Wright says contradict who he really is fundamentally. Did he misjudged his pastor?

There are always plenty of people speak against the establishments, but when they get the power they usually become the establishment themselves and many cases the later become worse than the previous.

Who Obama really reperesents? African Americans? Elitists? Movements? Is he just a misguided individuals or does he really embraces extreme ideology? Who is he?

We need you to un-tighten the race so we can win this thing on Tuesday Obama. Just keep doing what is positive, stay on the high road an hopefully the people can see throgh these deliberate destrations.

We will help you put an end to politics as usual, and the same games that they play every 4-8 years. With all this talk about the non-issues for the last 4 weeks. The issues are high gas prices, the mortgage crisis, high food prices, the iraq invasion, layoffs from jobs, etc. Good luck on Tuesday Obama.

This isn't about math anymore, its about momentum and shes got it. Obama is loosing in polls for BOTH general election matchups in Florida and Ohio. At this point, it's looking like the DNC might be taking a risk by nominating Obama to go head-to-head with McCain in what should've been an easy election for the Democrats.

It's funny how Hillary changes the tone in her voice to sound empathetic when she tries to talk about the economy- so manipulative. She has never had to worry about meals or gas, folks.

Don't listen to that wolf in sheep's clothing, Hillary campaign is largely funded by oil companies. She even has an oil lobbyist campaigning for her. Hillary works for OIL, not for us.
GAS HOLIDAY = $5 a gallon AFTER the holiday, PERMANENTLY

NO MATTER WHAT SHE SAYS: Hillary cannot be trusted- she sold her sold to SHELL.

That's amazing. Considering how Obama is outspending Clinton by huge amounts of money. Also considering how over 90% of African Americans seem to be voting principally on skin color and not on experience or issues. Given those factors, Obama needs a huge double digit victory in NC otherwise it's a big loss for Obama

Doesn't matter if Obama wins the nomination. He will not win the general. Clinton supporters... if he is nominated switch to independent and write-in Hillary. Let's see how that polls.

This is what "sue" said :
"I remember 9/11 very well, and I haven't forget that the Muslim terroists who enacted the devistation on our country were trained to fly our airlines by our instructors, and apparently they had squeaky clean background in order to receive their pilots' license. Are we really willing to allow another person of Muslim decent, however slight, to have access to our country's most highly guarded military secrets? I think I'd consider that very carefully before I voted."

I originally didn't believe only uneducated people voted for Hillary until I read this post. I Pitty you Sue, especially being a woman myself, I PITTY YOU! Because of people like you the world looks down on the US. Because of you racism still exists.

People this is our country here. This is our future, our children's future.
Vote Obama.

Obama is starting to show his true colors, and I don't mean his skin tone.
Go HRC!!!

laughable, obama wins north carolina by any margin and stays even in indiana, he will gain 10-15 delegates making the margin 150, also increasing his popular lead around 200k. with very few delegates and votes left heading to west virginia and oregon. i'm sorry but to my fellow americans, you are being made fools of, just as the gas tax repeal is bogus, so is this race. it has nothing to do with us and all comes down to money.

My sister and I were laughing just now. We said someday the country will look back on this election and laugh at all of the distractions. It's a good way to remind us how horrible these last 7 years have been.

All Hillary did was visit Bosnia to try and represent her country, and now she's being touted as a liar.

All Barack did was join a church, which would be commendable for any young man, and now he's responsible for everything his pastor has ever said over the last 30 years. No one else has had this much scrutiny.

Dems we need to wake up and smell the coffee, or we'll be fighting in Iran and paying $8.00 a gallon for gas. We're laughing now, but the GOP will have the last laugh.

to abdula johnson,dc
well we all know you are a person of color as many here are but you by far are the most ignorant person ever you do not speak for all people of color you are a fool when pastor wright is put on a space ship and sent to outer space i hope you will be sitting in his lap you fool! get a life

Funny how this is tabulated as a "loss of support" or "race tightening"–as you have pushed all week, CNN–while Obama's statistically significant gains from 20+% down to 9% in PA were virtually ignored and, indeed, rounded up to a 10% loss, despite the laws of mathematics already understood by most 3rd or 4th graders. In other words, you'll do anything to try to give her an edge, however undeserved, inaccurate, or media generated...

People gues what....Neither HC or McCain are presidents so they wont be able to put the tax cuts into law !!!! they are just playing silly games with your mind... and they would still have to get congress and senate in on the idea to too

Think we will see some good results tuesday... i am praying that people are not falling for the fear and war mongering of Clinton and McCain

"You honkies don't get it. You can't stop Obama. Wait until Obama wins the presidency. Blacks will finally get our revenge for slavery. You can't take a strong black women that is why you fear Michelle Obama. Black Power!"

And that is just what scares me about Obama getting in. How many of these nuts are running around out there voting for Obama? Too many, I am afraid. We desperately need Hillary for President, '08!!

For Obama to have gone through this Rev. Wright mess and still hold his head up is a big plus. The sun will once shine on him again. This is poll, Obama will win the two states although with a small margin in Indian.

The Clintons who earned roughly $100,000.000.00 last year are so very worried about gas prices that they want to fire the men and women working on highway tax dollars paid for by the Federal gas tax. They have been and remain slime.

My vote is for Hillary Clinton and this is why:

People are unreasonable, illogical and self-centered.
Love them anyway.

If you do good, people will accuse you of selfish, ulterior motives. Do good anyway.

If you are successful, you will win false friends and true enemies. Succeed anyway.

The good you do today will be forgotten tomorrow.
Do good anyway.

Honesty and frankness make you vulnerable.
Be honest and frank anyway.

The biggest person with the biggest ideas can be shot down by the smallest person with the smallest mind.
Think big anyway.

What you spend years building may be destroyed overnight. Build anyway.

People really need help but may attack if you help them.
Help people anyway.

Give the world the best you have and you might get kicked in the teeth.
Give the world the best you've got anyway.

Hillary Clinton will do good for all of us anyway.

She will be the only candidate to help us get back on our feet and is one of the strongest and smartest women I have become to know.

Hillary Clinton for President...

They are going to HAVE to be on the same ticket. Whomever wins will only win by a slight margin maybe 51% to 49%. One can not disregard 49% of the party who voted for the other person or accept another vice presidential candidate when you have one candidate with 49%(emphasis added)of the vote. Now I would not have the opinion if the difference was 70/30. I believe 60/40 creeps you into that gray area; however 51/49 leaves no room for doubt in my mind that they both need to be on the same ticket. So get ready Hillary or Barrack to bite the bullet and be Vice President. And the Vice President needs to be able to be an active advisor on all the issues.

Hillary will pull in the people Barrack can't get and Barrack will pull in the people Hillary can't.

And that's my two cents. So let them fight for President now to see who will head the ticket.

This blog is so full of haters!!!! What's with the "honkie" comment? How can the Obama supporters continue to accuse Clinton of making race an issue when so many of them play the card time & time again! What does 92% of the black vote for Obama tell you? I grew up in Detroit and I have seen people of all races & ethnic backgrounds get along for many, many years......this accusation of the Clinton's playing the race card in a campaign full of racial slurs from Obama supporters simply makes me sick!!!!! Obama has done nothing but divide the races by turning this primary into something that it is not-Black against White!!!! If we are all democrats-why would we not want the strongest candidate to win the primary & kick McCain's *ss in November? I'll tell you why-blacks are lookin at this as a way of proving something to white America-they don't care how it will affect this country-all they care about is getting a black man elected!
God bless Hillary for all of her strenghts & I will pray for Barack that he is able to look deep and stop this racial tension in this country by growing up and facing the music-He is a liar & a divider!!!!

If it was a couple of points difference, I could see it "being a tight race" but Obama has this cow whipped.

No to be too negAtive or anything like that. But I was wondering....
All the bad press that senator Obama got over being a member of the minister J.Wright's church. According to the opponent, this was just such a bad judgment on his part as to desqualify him to be president. What about what president Clinton did on his presidency, he lied to the American people under oath!! and dishonored the While House. Granted he is not the one running but is he considered one of the best politicians and one of the smartest men in the Democratic Party, He finished his time as president without problem. Bad judgement VERY BAD, good president?? well, many peoole say that.......
So, How do you respond Senator Hillary's camp?????

The republicans want Hillary because they can knock her down so easily come the GE. Don't you wonder why the GOP wants Hillary? They are playing those mind tricks again, and she is playing them too. Watch out.

Just because hillary was a spause of a president and talks fast, she thinks she is qualified to be commander in chief. She doesn't get. The math is also against her. But she is having fun at the expence of the American people.Why quit until she is forced.

Affiliations & Judgment–for just one candidate, i guess?
So, let's see...Hillary continues to say EVERY CHANCE she gets that she questions Obamas's "judgement " about staying in his church and that he should be held accountable for his "affiliations". Why isn't someone (maybe YOU, the media) questioning Hillary's close afiliation with a man (her HUSBAND) who's "judgment" of sexually exploiting a young intern was inexcusable (yeah–you're sure for woman–go Hill!ary) and then he LIES under oath about it- when he's President of th U.S He DID both those things and she's still AFFILIATED! Is HER judgment being challenged? Get to the issues and stop the ridiculous distractions–about some media grabbing preacher. We've got a Republican to beat. Clinton–stay on the issues because you may not have stayed "in that pew" but you've stayed and continue to be where it 'stinks'. You have been caught in lies that came out of YOUR MOUTH not an affiliation's. You tand Bill hink you're beyond the rules. Power breeds arrogance–and that breeds a great denial sysytem. You are running a dispicable campaign. I am one white 'older' woman wghose vote you don't have and I know many more who feel the same. We're supportuing a person with character and integrity.

Easley – the governor of North Carolina made a statement on CNN this morning in an interview with Wolf Blitzer that made me almost spit out my coffee. He said that Senator Clinton has a policy on creating jobs that will be better for America.

DO YOUR HOMEWORK, EASLEY – HILLARY'S POLICY FOR CREATING JOBS IS A JOKE!!!!!!! IF YOU WANT A GOOD LAUGH, LOOK AT WHAT SHE HAS DONE FOR UPSTATE NEW YORK!!!

This governor of North Carolina is just like Hillary herself. He'll say anything to get a vote for her.

North Carolina – I sure hope you vote based on facts. As a New Yorker, I can tell you that Hillary is one of the worst senators this state has ever had. Our taxes are at the highest they have ever been, and people are leaving this state in droves because they can't afford the taxes anymore. She won't help to create jobs. Her policies only help companies send jobs overseas.

Obama – '08 !!!

Hello? Republican attack ads against Obama in NC? Remember those? Why would they bother to buy TV time and try to take down Obama if they want him to beat Clinton because she's the easier target?

Something to think about . . . . . . .

Hillary supporters have me worried. They are as scary as the people who voted for Bush again in 2004. I'm wondering what they are thinking.

Abdula – please don't write things like that – I did not enslave your people and you have never been enslaved. Go home and worry about something else. Let's move on. Your comments are what scares the white people into not voting for Obama.

I am not surprised and Obama's lead will narrow even more when they read that the "gas tax" summer relief Obama is now claiming to be a gimmick is something he, himself, pursued in Illinois and voted for: See bleow:

How did Obama vote? Copley News Service March 8, 2000,
Senators Kimberly A. Lightford (D-4th) and Barack Obama (D-13th) said the bill gives customers needed temporary relief from high gas prices. "Gas retailers must post on each pump a statement that indicates that the state tax has been suspended and that this temporary elimination of the tax should be reflected in the price per gallon of gas," said Obama. Obama voted YES>

In November, 2000, a bill came up to eliminate the gas tax. AP, November 15, 2000. Obama was one of the 11 voting no.

THIS IS WHY OBAMA WILL RUN OUT OF GAS LITERALLY. Constant flipflop from Rev. Wright to gas relief if it is politically expedient. Yet, he attacks Hillary who has to respond on being negative. The Obama campaign as someone from Vancouver indicated earlier on this blog is very much the director of negativity in this primary.

Bring it home Indiana and North Carolina as the truth is out there. There is no X-file surrounding Clinton.

I was wondering what was going to happen to give whites in america a reason not to vote for a black man and now every one who is white can thank Rev. Wright for the reason not to. Hillary is as flawed as they come good luck against the vast right wing machine

Hillary Clinton's goose was cooked a long time ago.

The only reason she is still in this race is that she has mismanaged her campaign into a $10 million dollar debt.

Do Americans want a president who can't even manage a campaign?

In Canada they are paying over 4$ a gallon for months and we buy more oil from them than from the Arabs.
You winners that equate this cut with getting milk for your kids cereal make me sick. Your most likly driving gas guzzlers.
Give the world a break and stop this crap about a tax on gas break. These oil co. can eat your lunch enytime they want and nothing you can do until you chang the presidency.
Hillary is pandering and if your available that cheap boy have i AND OFFER FOR YOU AND YOU WON'T EVEN KNOW YOUVE BEEN HAD, ASK hILLARY

Jr.: Go finish school for goodness sake or get a spell checker and a proof reader.

I am amazed

If this gas tax policy is a reflection of Hillary's so-called 35 years experience then she is amazingly idiotic. Where is the experience that she has been touting. She defies all laws of Economics.

I wonder why the college students who support her don't call er bluff on this issue. Pandering for votes.

I wish CNN would not give Bill Clinton so much air time. I like the guy but it is wife who is running not him. It is unfair to Obama to have two Clintons always have air time. I am a democratic but CNN is so pro Hillary !!! It sickens me

abdula, u a black racist

CLINTON IS THE BEST QUALIFIED, we all know this.

If only Obama would drop out. Everything was fine with Hillary being the nominee, and then comes this interloper who all the men liked because "anything is better than a woman" plus lots of racial guilt - and he cannot and will not win the election. He is not qualified at all, nothing to do with race. HE should drop out, not Hillary.

This is what i think:
Democrats are the victims of their own success in registering so many new voters.

People who have never voted before (too lazy, too apathetic, too selfish) do not know the rules, don't understand the process and have ho respect for the sanctity of the right to vote.

All the Obama bloggers continually come from a position of hate, and post misinformation= propagnda, and reveal a lack of understanding of the voting process.

Demands, lies, money, dirty politics and threats will not install Obama. All you are doing is alienating the very voters you will need in Nov if you hope for a democratic victory.

I will be soooo glad when this is over and OBAMA is the nominee.....

Hilary has no experience, except following behind Bill. And telling big fish lies, and drinking beer. We ALL know she doesnt drink beer.

The political pandering needs to stop. I am tired of the news media messing with my intelligence, its shameful on the individuals who actually believe what is being said.

My elementary school age children, who listens to some of this rethoric has even asked me. "Mommy, does that make sense to you?" referring to the dumbness that is swirling around. Of course no is my answer.

If little children can disseminate what is fact from fiction, and you have grown adults who cannot figure it out, then we are in a heap of trouble.

I am still waiting on that answer as to why HRC is deserving to be POTUS. Was it her book "It Takes a Village" ? Cant be that, she doesnt live by experience, her sole child was raised by a nanny.

This country needs a change, good bad or indifferent, it needs to happen,

OBAMA 08'

I saw Bill Clinton talking about what Hillary Clinton has done and can do because of her experience. High gas prices, in a war that she voted for, job overseas etc... I like to know what she has done. It seem that Hilliary and McCain with all that experience they talk about have been unable to do very to prevent in the past so why should we believe that would change. Both voted for the war and Hillary supported NAFTA and I think most American feel that these to issues had a big impact on job and the war. Hillary talks about Health Care and we are no closer now that we were when she started her Health Care Crusade. We have to remember that we are in this war partly because President Bush was given bad information from some of our military leaders. Obama is the one chance we have to make a difference because I don't think he's a part of Washington Politics. I don't think they would allow him to be part of the GOOD OLD BOYS NETWORK.

Zogby?
The same guy who put a poll out a day before super tuesday that had Obama WINNING california by TEN points.

yeah im gonna believe his garbage...

You can do it. Go Hillary.

People, please open your eyes and think for yourselves based not on the lofty Obama rhetoric but the reality of his campaign.

Obama says I'm a good guy vote for me- trust me.
Michelle agrees that Barack is the best.

But Obama has lied already in more ways than the usual politician and has long ago trashed his own higher ground argument with his actions.

if that is how you vote, then you probably voted for Bush.

Nice on the surface does not mean decent to the core.

John why didnt Hillary leave Bill when he cheated on her and lied to all American. Where was her principle then?

Mr. Zogby is a Obama supporter so his polls are impossible because he favors Obama by giving false polls. Do not believe his polls. Obama is not president material. He is like a kid who likes to play with politics. Go Hillary!!!! Obama is fading away since Rev. Wright calls him a big liar. He knows Obama has lied to the public as he is like Rev. Wright who is anti white.

Only people who don't understand the way elections work in the US are still going for Obama.

Our ultimate goal is to win in november and he will NOT win. I dont care what people say, or what people believe – remember democrats, we need those republican votes too and they will NEVER vote for Obama. They just won't and that's the truth. People wish it wouldn't be this way, but it is and if we want to end Bush's era, we must win in november and only Hillary can win

Abdula Johnson, DC May 4th, 2008 4:25 pm ET

You honkies don't get it. You can't stop Obama. Wait until Obama wins the presidency. Blacks will finally get our revenge for slavery. You can't take a strong black women that is why you fear Michelle Obama. Black Power!

Oh my goodness. I am an African American, and racial name calling is wrong. I am hoping this statement is listed by someone playing a joke. You are way out of line. your parents must be disgraced at your racial ignorance.

Funny how the Obama campaign is changing its tone about the NC primary – he had double digit lead going in – why can't he keep it. If the nomination is his – no one has told the American people who keep voting for Hillary and she keeps winning primaries.This nomination isn't over and the Obama campaign should be ashamed of itself trying to shut down democracy. There is a reason why people aren't voting for him despite everyone claiming he has the nomination – and the Obama campaign needs to take notice. I for one am glad Hillary is willing to fight for this country and not roll over and play dead like so many Obamacans want her to do.

Go Hillary 08

I am just going to put this out there. Abdula Johnson your remark was the most uneducated, grotesque, and flat out GHETTO comment I have seen from any Obama supporter. Your language and thought process is one of the main reason why we still have an electoral college, and super delegates casting their final votes.

Geary
(an African American)

When Obama going to step side

Being from Canada where our dollar is almost at Par with the U.S. we are paying $5.00 a gallon out West here in Alberta where oil flows like water..well it did til Haliburton and Cheney came up and bought a ton of oil drilling rights from our Bush twin Ralph Klein.
My point is, Hillary and McCain can say all they want about this Gas Tax Holiday.. it is CONGRESS who will decide NOT Clinton, Not McCain or Obama for that matter. She is spewing forth a bunch of crap to win votes and Obama is right. it will not work
Read Time magazine about her best friend ICKES what a hateful piece of work he is!!! My gosh he makes Wright look like a saint. Time has a article all about this awful creature how this foul mouth , rude, ignorant man can sway Super Delegates is beyond me.. yikes! He LOVES Hillary and she pays him HUGE dollars to work for her.

Hillary Clinton is in this race for one thing HILLARY not you, not the people in New Orleans or everyday people.. for HER.
The reason she has so much power is she has lobbied, pork barrelled and done back room deals for 30 years.. yup as far as dirty politics goes she does out weigh Obama.. by a million tons of dirty deals.
Hillary Clinton is a power hungry woman and will say anything to get elected. For Canada's sake I hope with all my heart Obama will be the next president.
It would be nice to have a neighbour who voted in a man with courage, goodness and a brain!! What were you all thinking in 2004?? Still has us baffled up here.
Our troops are in Afhganistan along side your troops, therefore we also get an opinion.

Go Obama and Peace Out!

Don't believe the polls, the word on the ground is that Hillary is doing great.. Don't be surprised is there is upset...

Go Hillary!!!

I just checked on you Abdulla. You're really a white Hillary supporter trying to play the race card. Fess up.

Democrats are the victims of their own success in registering so many new voters.

People who have never voted before (too lazy, too apathetic, too selfish) do not know the rules, don't understand the process and have ho respect for the sanctity of the right to vote.

All the Obama bloggers continually come from a position of hate, and post misinformation= propagnda, and reveal a lack of understanding of the voting process.

Demands, lies, money, dirty politics and threats will not install Obama. All you are doing is alienating the very voters you will need in Nov if you hope for a democratic victory.

I DID

Jon: You are what's wrong with Barry Obama, his supporters and the ultra-left wing of the Democrats. Just because people want to drink beer, shoot guns and go to church, doesn't mean they are "uneducated" or lacking the right to be represented by a strong leader. The sneering, demeaning elitism of Obama and his sycophants is what will make a lot of blue dogs stay away in Nov, or cast a vote for McCain to keep such hugh and mighty academics away from the levers of power.

Obama's trure color is starting to be exposed as he slips in the polls. He is just another politiican who will say anything to get elected, whether it is to Canada with respect to NAFTA or his pretending to distance himself from the militant Rev. Wright.

Obama-In-Trouble "08

THose of you wanting to know more about Hillary's accomplishments, one lately includes the Marine One helicopter to a foreign company.

Some jobs will be in NY.

$10,000 went to Hillary while $20,000 went to Bill.

Oh, never mind her recent concern about transferring intelligence to foreign entities like Bill did with Magnetech in Indiana.

Bill approved that one, Hillary arranged the latest one.

As for "Sue," above, I guess we need to root out all those Muslims and Muslim related people in the military with top secret clearances now too (Sue, you are so un-American!).

THIS IS HOW CNN, FOX NEWS, ABC AND OTHERS MAKE THEIR MONEY. IT WOULD NOT BE GOOD FOR THEM IF THE RACE IS OVER NOW. SO, THEY ARE TRYING TO PROLONG IT BY DESTROYING OBAMA. SHAME ON THEM. CLINTON WILL BE NEXT. SHE SHOULD NOT CELABRATE ABOUT THE BREAK SHE HAS RIGHT NOW.

YES WE WILL!

YES WE WILL!

Hillary 08' 12'

A win is a win
A loss is a loss

We shall see on Tuesday who is winning
and probalby who has WON

The word on the ground is that Hillary's doing great...
Don't believe the polls...

It is very clear that CNN is supporting Clinton over Obama given the continuous emphasis on negative headlines against Obama or retention of these beyond shelf life. Why?

I don't know about the rest of the state, but here in Charlotte it is all about Obama. I am very proud to be voting in the state that is efectively going to seal the deal on getting him the nomination. I have already voted for him in the early voting and my wife will be voting for him on Tuesday.

Yes we Did!!
Obama 08

HILLARY IS DOING THIS FOR EVERYONE, BUT MAINLY THE TRUCK DRIVERS. sorry caps typing is fun.

With truck drivers spending less on fuel she hope it would encourage prices to globally go down or even a little.

With any plan to be successful we need a partnership with all of america. We have to be a team, with each of us slowly working together. We need short term and long term programs to fix these gas prices. Hillary is trying to show us we have options and only if we as a society work together can we overcome this.

Not so fast, CNN. The four most recent polls out: Rasmussen: Obama up 9%; Zogby: Obama up 9%; ARG: Obama up 11%; and Research 2000: Obama up 7% (and the Research 2000 poll is the oldest of the polls). That puts the poll of polls average at 9% still. Almost all of these are underestimating the black vote in NC. The black vote makes up about 34% of the Democratic voters, but, in early voting, blacks are voting in record numbers AND represented about 39% of the early voting. I could be wrong, but I think Obama wins in low double digits.

I think the saddest issue here is that we are willing to accept the division, hate, lies, and stuff as such as real from someone who is running for the highest office in our country.

how can Hillary see to the reporter's eyes and say the bosnia lie, not just once, but at least three times?

how can she justify the dirty tactics? I thought she was from the democratic party?

the real issue here is that the republicans have figure out, that to win something that even the universe is against, _ is to help Hillary now via Rush Limbaugh who has carte blanche to be hateful, and gets away with it to send his troops to vote everywhere for her now adn against her in November.

the GOP, Limbaguh and luckely for him McCain ,and specially Hillary and Bill, have it figure it out, that if they all together knock down Senator Obama by showing clips of terrorists, by sending the message of fear (which by the way is no way different from Bush in the last 8 years) then, the republicans take over so easily that they dont even thave to spend much money or talking convencing people because Hillary has done it.

So really who is the strongest candidate when you truly look at it here:

Senator Obama, he is fighting the establishment of 200 years of politics in this coutry, the biggest political machine in the US (the clintons) and the Republican nominee McCain, the GOP, the far right...
I bet anything soon they will all attack him _
not only has HIllary joined them in the gas issue but soon she will again use smear tactics, all from the Rove book.............

is this what we want again? 4 more years of a woman who is worse than any politician man, and a woman who calls herself democrat yet her actions are louder than what the republicans are actually doing and saying in this campaing? the worst of all, she is such a good liar, and she can see you right in the eyes and tell you a BIG lie and laugh at you and at the lie, and still say I will win.

think about it, think twice, _ chances come once in a life time........... I hope you think of your children and what you want them to inherit..

What the media doesnt publicize, is that ALOT of North Carolinians have already casted their ballot. With that said, I think Obama will run away with North Carolina. Also, why isn't CNN publicizing the fact that Obama just took a small lead in Indiana. I'm beginning to believe that CNN stands for CLINTON NEWS NETWORK!

hey Jon, I just so happens that I am a college graduate as are all 15 people that im taking with me to support Hillary on tuesday. Speak for yourself idiot!

Hillary 08!!

Hillary is best choice to take over the reigns of president .Do you really think she is going to go through all of this just to rip off the american people .I really dont think so she will do what she says and make this country strong again .They did it once and will do it again

Obama o8

Linda

If all church goer were responsible for there pastors, there would be alot of catholics in prison. Someone please tell me Hillary's experience. Any landmark legislation, or anything other then being First Lady. At least Obama is brilliantly smart.

hillary of course...how can there be any doubt...if it is about the economy then for sure we know she will fix it...the clinton era was filled with news of scandals because we had nothing else to worry about...give us back a time when all we have to worry about was whose skirt bill is lifting...

I CANT WAIT FOR TUESDAY 5/6/08 @ 8PM WHEN WOLF ANNOUNCES THE PROJECTED WINNER OF NC AND IN.....HILLARY STATES IT'S GOING TO BE GAME CHANGER UH?.....SO WHEN OBAMA WINS.....WILL SHE DROP OUT OR CRY FOR MORE CONTEST?

As of right now, Clinton would have to obtain 60% of all future primaries AND 60% of the super delegates that are left in order to just break even with Obama. If she gets anywhere beneath 60% in the next two contests, even if she wins by a small margin, that percent will go up. It makes me wonder if Clinton learned math from the same book as Huckabee did.

I got polled for the first time ever on Saturday. It was automated and didn't say but I know it was by Public Policy Polling. Can't wait to see the poll results on Monday. I'm an Obama supporter!

I am a white male from North Carolina. Born and raised. I know almost no one supporting Hillary Clinton. In fact, the handful that are, are uneducated, and know almost nothing about the political process.

Obama wants to " change the world"...does that mean like his pastor????? Better think hard before you vote for this man.
Hillary can do this job waiting and it IS a Big job! Linda

Dear Jr.

Thanks for you opt ad, and convincing me why it is so important to vote for BARACK OBAMA.

See you at the inauguration.

Obama 08

Dear Convinced,

I think you are dilusional. Hillary's demeanor in this campaign has been pathetic.

I will accept the fact that you are not playing with a full deck and that your candidate is a liar. That's why we don't support her.

Obama 08

Obams will NOT win North Carolina by that much if any. I too live in North Carolina and i do not know where these so called polls come from because the did not interview any one i know. Im voting on tuesday for HILLARY and im taking 15 people with me to vote for her also.

Hillary 08!!

Just what polls did you use for your "poll of polls" or maybe you wouldnt care to share with your readers? Incidentally Obama is ahead by 6 points in the head to head national match up with Clinton and two polls – Zogby has Obama up by 9 points in N. Carolina and 3 points in Indiana (May 4th) whilst Rasmussen Reports has Obama up (May 2nd) by 9 points in N. Carolina. Why dont you try some real journalism for a change? Never thought you could outdo Fox, but there you go again!!!

Since the difference is within the margin of error, the headline is just plain wrong - that conclusion cannot be reached.

I am so tired of Obama's rhetorical speeches. This is not to inspire voters to vote based on inspiration. He lacks substance. Why cant his voter supporters accept it. I got to admit that Hillary Clinton does have substance and a clear vision on how to implement solutions in our much needed country and the economy. By the way, I must say that her demeanor through this primary campaign has been very presidential.

What has happened to the standards of the New York Times? You no longer are representative of an outstanding newspaper. You have lost it. I read your presumed Op Ed writers you invited to give their opinion in the 2 states Indiana and North Carolina. Where was their a favorable opinion for Barack Obama? Both writers were Clinton supporters. You call this fair reporting. Where have you gone. Having been a Media Planner for the top agencies in the country, I am not sad that you are no longer a quality newspaper, I am only reviled. Most particularly, your contemptible slants in reporting the current Presidential campaign. I canceled my subscription a year ago. My disappointment with the Times over the years finally prompted me to do so.

Guam once again shows Obama's lack of support among true Democrats who understand the Electoral College process.

Here We Go North Carolina.

Time to show we're a BIG State. Time to show all that education has not gone to our heads. Time to show we have some sense and know our history as Democrats. Time to show that we understand the Electoral College. Time to show we are supporting the Electabl Candidate as our Democratic Nominee. Time to show that we are NOT Lieberman Democrats... who are Independents in disguise.

Time to show our Carolina Blue. Our Governor Easley– who is not worried about his reelection– has supported Clinton. He's right on track and a great leader who is backing our next President.

Time to Vote for Madame President Hillary Rodham Clinton.

P.S. Remember when Gas was $1.46 when Bill and Hillary handed the keys to the White House to Bush?

with cnn that clearly is biast obama does not stand a chance with all the nagative coverage but when it comes to hillarie what about peter paul

Not to worry...Obama will win NC by double digits...the early vote is high and very favorable to Obama.

I'm in Charlotte and he will rack up huge margins in across the state.

I'm an Independent, Obama supporter and I support what Rangel says. The idea that Obama has the same beliefs as his former reverand is just ridiculous especially if you look at the things Obama has done and said over his career. I've sat through Catholic church for almost 20 years ( I'm 31 now and if anyone asks I'm a Cosmic Humanist) but never have taken on the rigid conservative views of the church.

I hope everyone who votes, especially this Tuesday, really understands that in this land of freedom, we all can say negative and stupid things which each individual speaking those words should be accountable, but we should not think that someone else should have to answer for someone elses beliefs or words.

Obama, to me, is a break from the past and a hope that this country, and subsequently the world, will begin to confront its fear to challenge the current dogmas of 'old' politics, religion, and science. To a future that embraces change, not for change's sake, but in the knowlegde that if we don't nothing will change.

Vote Barack Obama!!

Let's judge candidates with their own actions and words, not with what someone else said. For that, I feel Clinton has more to be questioned than Obama: the lie about Bosnia, staying with unfaithful husbandwho costed a lot of our tax money for his impeachment, saying votes in some states are "more equal than others," picking what to be credited for among what her husband did, but ignoring other things (such as NAFTA) that is not convinient for her camparin, her negative sarcasm, and more!

I don't know what's worse, pandering or not listening to the people who know what they are talking about. Do we want her has president? I don't agree with hire an under qualified man over a woman but the vice versa exist people. Obama is just as qualified as Hillary and more qualified then some of the more successful presidents.

I am Native American and I was undecided between Clinton and Obama since they are so similar on the issues.

I was trying to make an informed choice based on whose platform was superior and who would be better able to execute their policies.

Then I read these blogs. The Obama supporters are so filled with hate and uninformed rhetoric that twists the truth- that I decided on Clinton.

If Obama can inspire so much hatred, venom and vicious attacks in his supporters, he CAN NOT BE who he claims to be.

That makes him a liar and a phony- probably closer in beliefs to Wright- than he now pretends to be. That is political posturing.

More republican style dirty tricks from the Clintons?
How low will they go to gain more power?

What about that voter intimidation that Hill-supporters "Women Voting" are doing in N.C.

Do we really desreve 4 more years of this?

Jane in Greensboro

Dear Americans: Our true God, our Universal Creator of all life as expose Pastor Wright and Mr. Obama for whom they are. Pastor Wright whom was exploying his followers and taken their money by teaching them hatred racism and anti American. He was using misfortunes of what happened to the people of the past and pasted history events and wars. About Mr. Obama it took him 20 years to find out what kind of pastor he had. Mr. Obama has a poor comprehension on judging a person .Security is the most important issue for a president of any country. If pastor Wright would had been President of any Country, it would had taken Mr. Obama , (5) Presidential terms to realizes Pastor Wright was not his allies A President must be able to judge another President to see if he is a true allies. This keeps our Country out of wars, knowing who our enemies are and keeping them on check. It is possible Pastor Wright and Mr. Obama is playing us as fools. Pastor Wright’s good acting maybe he is taken a fall for Mr. Obama. So Mr. Obama would have to reject Pastor Wright for his bad behaviors. Even some of his followers are saying he never acted like his doing now.

She'll lose by double digits and her camp will spin it like always.

I remember 9/11 very well, and I haven't forget that the Muslim terroists who enacted the devistation on our country were trained to fly our airlines by our instructors, and apparently they had squeaky clean background in order to receive their pilots' license. Are we really willing to allow another person of Muslim decent, however slight, to have access to our country's most highly guarded military secrets? I think I'd consider that very carefully before I voted.

Now that Obama- who was running an Honest Abe campaign- has revealed that he is just like every other politician- slicker even than most. Hillary Clinton should be able to easily regain her momentum.

Obama is just playing dirty poltics while pretending to do otherwise:

First he overplayed the race card for his own political gain in this primary.

Then he went negative and misleading on his attacks on Hillary.

Then he divided people by race, age, gender, demographics, income and education.

Then he lied about his close relationship and fondness for Wright and his own awareness of Wright's politics.

And finally, he sold out his own beliefs by disavowing his Rev. (Wright)

The problem with Democrats is that Obama can't win McCain, and Hillary is hard to overcome Obama, unless Obama steps down.

8 percent is not down from 9 percent. There is no statistically significant difference between these two results and there is no statistically significant difference between 8 and 10. The proper headline should be "Data shows nothing that is statistically significant. This would never be published in a reputable journal. It is only in MSM do we see this trash reporting. It is misleading and serves no purpose then to make money from ad revenues.

Disgusting!! Why did Obama not leave the church after hearing such sermons!!!
1. We are still awaiting other clips of such "fiery" sermons as out of a mans 20 years of being a pastor all the press as been able to find are just 2mins of snippets.
2. I guess all Catholics are pedophile" apologist as I havent heard of the catholic church or any other Catholic legislator being castigated or even leaving the catholic church following the news of series of events of priest abusing their members, which I think cant even be equated with the Rev Wright issue. American media as sank to the depth of institutionalise racism. Disgusting!!!

Does anyone really care which liberal is ahead

GIVE PEACE A CHANCE. VOTE OBAMA 08.

ENOUGH OF THE BUSH ERAS. ENOUGH OF THE CLINTONS.

STEP OUTSIDE THE BOX, PEOPLE. JUST BECAUSE HIS NAME ISN'T BUSH OR CLINTON DOESN'T MEAN YOU CAN'T BELIEVE IN HIM AND HIS HOPE FOR AMERICA'S FUTURE, HIS PLANS TO HELP THE AMERICAN PEOPLE.

Borack Obama. Singing His Sermon. He start's off with the same: (I have a Dream). Then I have a Nightmare. The MInd of a Child. Who want's to be King.. He's living a Science Fiction Movie. ..

Your caption is incorrect...it should read Clinton gaining...She is going to win NC!!!

the republicans are trying their best to get a win for clinton they know she is the weakest candidate, hannity AGAIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! has rev wright on fox its his last ditch stand, to discredit obama, if obama wanted to he could discredit clinton so easily, the republicans will anyway if they have to, obama is sticking to his principals of uniting not deviding , superdelegates, dont let the republicans get away with this, clinton is hanging on like grim death, put her out now ,america and the rest of the world is sick of the nonsense, of course cnn wont publish this , but its worth a try,

So if you show this story enough, does that make it true?

If we just had 1 more day. Oh, we do!!!!!!!!!!!

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

Senator Obama should run next time and support Senator Clinton.
He just needs more experience.

NC is neutral ground unlike Philadelphia, New York, Arkansas, Illinois and Hawai. Whoever carries NC should win the nomination.

Go Hillary people are getting smart and seeing what Obama is a mouth for the rich and to heck with the working people of the U. S. A. he will be right back backing his pastor if he is elected. DON'T TRUST HIM.

Way to go Senator Clinton. I am hoping that you will win North Carolina as well as Indiana. I support you 100% and can't wait to see you in the White House as our President. GO HILLARY 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Here is Zogby on Indiana as of today:

Zogby 05/02 – 05/03 559 LV 41 43 Obama +2.0

Rural blue collar white america better wake up the Clintons will treat you just like the Bush did by sending your jobs over seas..don't be dumb you don't need a college degree to know who the right choice is....GO OBAMA!

The reason the race is tightening in NC is because Hillary has Bill hitting every white, rural county. I was particularly struck by the vision of him pointing his finger in a condescending way at an audience made up of white men while he was campaigning in "Whiteville" NC. Bill is race baiting in a very subtle way. But it's out there for anyone with half a brain to see. She can't win this thing without him. But then again, she wouldn't even be in it were it not for him. Their lust for power is downright frightening.

Geeez.... HRC sounds EXACTLY like George Bush. HRC thinks she can just toss a meatless bone to us little people while she goes on Fox News to tell O'reilly what she really thinks. "God bless us rich people...."

This "little person" will never vote for HRC.

Depends on the poll but at least you've got the directions right – other polls have it down from the 15% he had a couple weeks ago to 7% a few days ago and now it's dropping again.

Hey delegates, I know Obama has the most popular vote, I know he has more delegates, I know he won more states. BUT PICK ME I'M BETTER

It's too bad that Hillary won't just bow out...each day that this drags on is just another day that the Republicans are going to gain ground on whoever wins from the Democratic side. This country can't afford the 4 more years of Bush-like foreign policy and one sided free trade that McCain will bring.

Woot Hillary

Hopefully she gets the nomination

WOW CNN so Obamas lead in your poll goes from 7 to 8 in NC and you say he is losing support? Did Hillary teach you guys math? Like her belief she can still win the nomination when it is impossible without overturning the will of the people. Like her 9.3% victory in PA was double digits like you reported. How about acting like a responsible journalism network and stop acting like a Hillary surrogate for a change. But I am sure this will be awaiting moderation for the next two days so I am probably wasting my time. But hey, it's worth a try.

Did anyone really think that Obama would win by 34% in North Carolina. Once Hillary started campaigning in NC, the percentage was going to go down. This is a close race. TV News commentators set up false expectations. When Hillary was up big in PA and Obama started campaigning, the race was going to tighten. I have a suggestion for CNN, MSNBC and FOX News. Why don't you just shut up about the polls especially polls over a week ahead of a primary? All that matters is what happens on election day.

Your comment is awaiting moderation.
Obama's a poster child for the "conscientious objectors" of the world. What a cry baby. Business as usual, I see with negative attacks on a lady. Has he no sense of decency? — the only change he will bring is nothing. Business as usual. I hope the voters in NC and IN wake up and smell the roses.

This is absolutely positive.... down, down, down is where Obama needs to be!

CNN e dont trust your polls anymore.The good people of NC and IND are going to put you and your Hillary to shame for your bias and whinning
OBAMA 08

This is all proof that negative campaigning does work. It's a shame that so many people buy into it. It's a shame that we are not big enough to respond negatively to negative campaigning and positively to campaigning around the issues. It's the same as when two kids are fighting on the playground. Nobody really cares or stops to think, what the heck are these two people fighting about and why am I standing here enjoying the show? Rather, they join into the experience of it and start chanting "fight, fight, fight..." So what can be said of those who enjoy watching the fight? We need campaigns that don't believe you should win at all costs. And we need surrogates and supporters that don't feel a hunger and thirst for seeing others personally attacked and hearing all the lies, half truths, and distortions that go along with it. Even more that being disappointed about the negativity of the campaigns, it's even more depressing knowing there are so many of my fellow Americans buying into it and feeding off of it. At the beginning of this circus, I checked nearly every day and I admit I got swep into the madness too; but now I watch the news or check the internet news about half as what I used to. Well, I'm not chanting "fight, fight, fight..." anymore. I'm going home, turning off the TV, tuning out the campaigns, and going to spend more time with my family. Though I will check from time to time. But a reasonable person can only be expected to handle so much vomit. Good day my friends and enjoy your fighting and bickering. I hope it teaches you to love your children more.

The end will justify the means. No matter how tight cnn speculates that race is in North Carolina, one thing is obvious and certain that the whole exercise will be rounded off after Obama's victory in INDIANA and NORTH CAROLINA on tuesday.

When the dust is settled, who gets the nomination? She that trails in pledged delegates, popular votes and number of states won. Claims that she can win the big states is a mere fluke. Any democratic nominee can win New york and California and so on.

Superdelegates should rally behind Barack Obama so that unhealthy contests will come to an end.

Chris!

no, Barak will finish the game right at NC.
Go Obama!

The gas tax is nothing but fluff and political pandering. What is much more critical is the sleazy conspiracy between the Clintons,Rev. Wright and the news media. I have listened to the Rev. Wright speech that sparked this manufactured controversy. Guess what I heard. The Rev. Wright gushes with love for the Clintons. Don't believe it? Listen to the speech. Rrev. Wright Loves the Clintons! The speech never mentions Obama once. Rev. Wright was a confidant of the Clintons during the Bill Presidency and he still loves and supports them This whole Rev. Wright contoversy is a plot by the Clintons,Wright and the media to discredit Obama. If the truth comes out. Rev. Wright would become a Clinton controversy as it indeed should be.

How exactly is a 9 point lead shrinking to an 8 point lead considered "tightening". Grow up CNN, it's obvious to anyone with an IQ you are pro-Hillary because the more drawn out this primary is, the better your ratings are...

So people really don't see that clinton's gas tax plan reveals how shortsighted she will be? that this plan helps oil companies more than it helps us? that the gas tax is used to fund our infrastructure improvements and without it we lose a whole lotta jobs and our roads begin to fall apart? that we save a mere $30 at the cost of jobs and infrastructure? is it really worth it? I would much rather plan for the long term solution rather than the quick fix that digs our whole deeper. keep funding those oil companies hillary, god help us all if you or mcbush get into the whitehouse

If Barack Obama is the weaker candidate than Hillary Clinton, and the Republicans want to win in November, would they not be happier running against a weaker candidate? Would they not be pushing for Obama to win the Democratic nomination rather than the obvious push for Hillary?
You see, this is the kind of politics that takes advantage of the less educated, the less discerning.. This is the game that politicians play... Abrakadabra....

And Hillary's 10 % win was really 9.3 so what is really the difference.

Barack Obama WILL WIN North Carolina and I don't care what the margin is..Hillary is done. She just hasn't accepted it yet.

Did hear her speak today. Nothing but lies and promises she can't give. Healthcare. She failed that in 1992. Gas tax. She won't even be president to authorize it. Keep believing in all her empty promises. She gives what she gets....nothing!

The picture says Obama gaining in NC. Correction need for the caption under the picture..

Nice JOb Hillary- from being down 34 points... wasn't it Obama's camp– all up in arms when he raised his percent in PA.? Give it Obama people... she is the one... It's a good day to be a democrate... a good year... aye.

I do not understand what is happening here, When Clinton went into PA She had a 20 point lead she won by 9.3 points.
Obama started in NC with a 15 point lead and the pols show he is down to 7 points.
Why is every acting as if this is the end of the line for Obama?
The pols do not take into account or pols the new or young voters.
Ane every one seems to forget OBAMA started as the under dog in this race. Hillary is the one who shoud be winning, actually she was expected to get the nomimation before the race even started.
OBAMA do not have to win any more states because she cannot beat him in delegates or Popular votes.
She can only win if the super deligates GIVE, and I mean GIVE the nomination to her,
There are lots of people out here waiting and watching to see this happen. If thay decide she is more electable than he is i hope they are able to go to the poles in November and garantee a win because many of us will not VOTE.

CNN, you need to correct your statement under the Obama/Clinton pictures. It should read: "A new CNN 'Poll of Polls' shows Clinton gaining in North Carolina".

Shows, how biased CNN is towards Obama.

NO TO OBAMA!

Clinton '08

He's got NC in the bag. The media is trying to pretend it's close. This nomination is over.

By the way, Zogby has Obama leading by 2 in Indiana today.

Obama continues to prove beyond any shadow of doubt that he is out of touch with most voters here in North Carolina. He is losing support by the day here in my town.

I drive a truck for a living and my wife commutes 35 miles to work. A gas tax holiday this summer would definitely help me and my family. Obama voted for a gas tax holiday THREE times in Illinois. WHy the flip flop now Obama? Obama reminds me of flip flopper John Kerry. No wonder that elite Left Wing Dem endorsed Barry.

American wake up , Hillary is willing to kill every one just to be a president.like she sent your children to be killed in Iraq 30,000 killed and wounded as well cost you trillions of USD .she will serve serve those whom gave her the million lobbyist and special intress.next day she will forget you wake up. dont trust some one whom make politics from the most holy quastion your children life

God will decide you is gonna lead america.let His will be done.

Even the hardest Barack followers are starting to see that this wannabe is all STYLE and no SUBSTANCE!!!!!

Only a real idiot can't see through your LIES Obama – you are only deceiving the gullable!!!!

HILLARY IT IS OVER HAVE BILL DO THE THE MATH FOR YOU AND HE CAN TELL YOU IT IS OVER " NO WE BETTER NOT HAVE BILL DO THE MATH DONT KNOW IF HE CAN TELL THE TRUTH TAKE A LOOK AT THIS POLL Gallup Daily: Obama 49%, Clinton 45% NEW May 4, 2008
Gallup Poll Daily tracking shows 49% of Democratic voters nationwide preferring Barack Obama for the party’s presidential nomination, while 45% prefer Hillary Clinton.

When Obama runs for re-election in 2012 will he still be calling for CHANGE?

Oh well, looks like America is making another huge mistake by allowing HRC a chance at this office. Why oh why can't people get their heads out of the sand.

Saturday Senator Obama had 49% and Senator Clinton had 42%. If he has 50% today to her same 42% I would say he is up instead of down.

It is NOT Obama gaining- it is Clinton. Was the error on purpose?

CNN really is in the bed now with clinton. Thet really want this election to never end. Corporate media. The worst thing to happen to our democracy. Other than Hillary Clinton.

Obama was a fad. He should withdraw. He cannot win

Obama will never loose my support. Sen Clinton, aka: The Clinton, misleading, pandering, liar machine will NEVER have my support.

Senator Clinton is the most focused, intelligent, experienced, well rounded, and grounded canidate for president. Time is showing she is the right person for president. Obama cannot tell me he's been in church with someone for 20 years and doesn't buy into or share his racist, hateful beliefs. I don't buy that at all.

Think Hillary effect...Obama will win by double digits...Dont deceive yourself

You can't stop her, you can only hope to contain her!

Hillary 08!

Pro Obama CNN once again has a misleading headline. Headline says "Obama gaining in N.C." but the article correctly states that Obama is not gaining but is in fact losing ground.

Tightening?CNN is so biased in favour of Clinton!

has CNN become clintons private cheer leading company ????
why CNN does not post peoples comments??

It will be okay Barack!

CNN, talk about Peter Paul vs. Clinton

The polls are reflecting Clinton's bold faced lie to the voters about the gas holiday, something she knows is dead in the water and will never happen. regardless, she is using it to get a last minute shift in votes coming her direction and away from Obama. By the time the voters figure out she conned them, it will be too late, she will already have their primary vote in her column.

If they don't give the Nominee to you Hillary

I am so happy to see that people are starting to really wonder if Obama and his "pretty" speeches are enough to get this country back on track..

GO HILLARY !

The main topic Sunday morning on CBC & BBC was Obama & Wright. Obama is already being compared to Bush as a total incompetent. His lack of experience & good judgment is already being questioned outside the USA borders.

Too little, too late for the wicked witch to change things now. With an unfavorable opinion among a majority, and also a majority feel she is not trustworthy, Hillary is actually the one who is "unelectable" this fall!
If the Democrats have a chance, it is with Obama. McCain would beat
either candidate if the election were held today!

Excellent interview of Clinton on ABC this morning....questions all came from persons in the audience!!!

Go Hillary!

America......open your eyes and minds. MS. Clinton has experience, yes, the same old politics we have been getting fed for the last few decades! Who do you think taught her? The same old school that taught President Bush....

Obama '08

Take a look around, It seems like everyone is trying to give Hillary hope of winning, but the truth to the matter is people still don't trust Hillary.

What do you expect when CNN and all of the media has Rev. Wright in their front page. Unfortunately some less educated persons are buying what the media is selling. In the last two weeks the headlines have been Rev. Wright. The media is doing disservice to Sen. Obama and the American people. Still, Sen. Obama will prevail in NC.

Gosh, when Barack closed gaps, all the pundits were everywhere. Hillary is getting close, and there's no spin. There is a real sense that the media does not want Hillary to win. Tough! She is, and she will.

She cannot get more than 42 percent of the vote.

Stop spinning it like you did in PA with Obama.

Why is CNN so pro Hiliary?
1 percent is within the margin of error. Still you guys make it a headline. Nothing will help her though. I guess you guys want it going as long as it can possibly go . In the end it will be Obama and he will be in White house in Jan 09.

GO OBAMA !!!!

If Obama loos, it will be a big loose for not only America, but also the world. Suppose Clinton get the nomination, what will happen if Mcain will choose Rice as Vp?It could be the end for Hilarry.
I'm from Holland and i Hope that Obama will win.

Holland 4 Obama!!!!

8 points is still a pretty big gap. Especially considering the huge deal the media and the Clinton campaign made over her 9 point win in Pa. If Obama wins by 8 he still won pretty decisively.

Why vote for Hillary – another Bush? Destroy Iran??? Give me a break. Negotiate before killing – please!!!
OBAMA 08

The fact that all the major US media outfits are seemingly counter-Obama is just testament to the ardent prejudice that's being propagated against his candidacy. Obama still thrives despite such unfairness,and this is nothing short of a miracle!I think Obama shall do much better come tuesday.

I think the superdelegates need to start making up their minds in this race for the nomination.
I also think that the senators in states that have already held their caucuses and primaries should pledge their vote for the winner of that state.
I need to see that the popular vote matters at least at the state level.

Obama will win in N.C. it doesn't matter by how much. Tic,tic,tic for the NY Sen,

I hope CNN can explain which poll exactly changed since yesterday to result in a gain for Clinton?? Zogby was both on saturday and sunday 9 points up for Obama and there were no other new polls!

CNN what a misleading headline ….one point is insignificant..the poll mirrors Zogby which has OBAMA up 9… The headilne should read OBAMA maintains lead in NC…come on lets be fair…..

Hillary for god's sake,
DROP OUT !!!!!!!

In this democrat campaign there is still the question, how do you give the democrat nomination to the loser. I don't think there is anybody out there would approve of their expected job promotion given to someone just because.

The caption for the picture is incorrect based on the text of the article – Obama is ahead in North Carolina, but NOT gaining.

What is going on CNN???? Are you trying to be the defining influence on the race??? I've never seen you leave an article up as long as you left your Write article up, and only to replace it with this current one? Maybe everyone is right this has become the Clinton News Network. I'm changing news providers you guys have obviously lost perspective.

Obama will win in NC hands down. So the race is tightening. She's just as well as finished. He may even win in Indiana. Then she's really history.

GO OBAMA!!

um Hello CNN???? The caption under the photo doesn't match what this article is about!!!!!!!!!!!! Get with it! Shotty journalsim throughout this entire election for both candidates!!

God....Why can't they realise hillary rodham clinton CAN'T WIN ?????
Be smart people.......

Is now the best time to bring up the fact that Obama overpolls in the pre-election day polls, and Hillary usually wins late deciders

And the recent Zogby polling has Obama leading in Indiana.

OH and by the way, Your headder is Incorrect. Obama is losing support in NC, not gaining. ArticLe disputes The title .....

the comment under the image is incorrect. it should be clinton gaining in north carolina... not obama

MOMENTUM! I love it

1. Clinton
2. McCain
never: Obama

I think Hillary will win both states.......

As an American living overseas, it is interesting to watch how the US media is playing a part in bringing down Obama every chance it gets. What power you are displaying!!!!

A correction; CNN to be consistent with the text the caption in the Obama and Clinton photographs should read "loosing" instead "gaining"

CNN get over yourself. Your banner headlines are so biased. How many ways can you come up with to bash Obama...?

Go Obama...

I know this won't get posted...its my 10 attempt but obviously the "moderators" are for CLINTON and don't want to hear real opinons.

no matter how many states, pledged delegates or super-delegates Obama wins. This whole thing will come back to bite Obama in the tail end in the general election. Even with the primaries popular vote in his pocket . the general puplic will likely vote republican in the presidential election, If Obama is the nomenee.

CNN, You will make a story out of anything. What is up with having these polls every single day. Before Pennsylvania polls were released approximately once a week, now it is every day. STOP with the polls. You are making the county look schizophrenic. No one changes there opinion that often unless they are out of there mind or have no capabilty of thinking for themselves. The media has replace the American population's brain with the mindless, non-issue topics of the day, Rev. Wright, small town bitterness, Sniper Fire, etc.

Hit him hard! This guy is fake and ridiculous! We need to stop the racism this guy is spreading.

Go Hillary

North Carolina, don't be buffaloed into thinking Hillary cares one bit about you! She's the do anything, say anything to get elected candidate. Think about it!

The late deciders will go to Hillary Clinton. She will win North Carolina. Senator Obama has shown judgment does matter and his judgment is poor at best!

We don't need a divisive president whose wife and minister degrade our country. Obama is not fit to lead our country.

HILLARY 08!

Obama just got endorsement from The Charlotte Observer in NC
i sure wish CNN would not be quite so obvious in their wish for Hillary to make this closer. I guess you guys just want this to drag out so you can get more viewers. Obama remains ahead in popular vote, delegate vote and state count.....Please report the news more accurately and fairly or you will lose this viewer.

Have you heard of margin of error? A shift of one point, from 9 to 8 points, is hardly indicative of a "tightening" race. We really do not need more "horse race" journalism, inventing stories that are not there. The result should come about as voters make up their minds, free of undue influence as to whether a candidate is gaining or losing, and by a difference if 1 point!

Senator Obama's job is to win NC regardless of margins and Senator Clinton's job is to win NC to show she has momentum after PA win so she can continue her argument to the superdelegates. If she wins both NC & IN then she has the momentum, but if Obama wins NC & IN then he can close the deal. And if he only wins only NC then let the games continue for 6 more weeks. I can't wait for Tuesday.

Thank you for the update.

Getting close? Whatever! Clinton said it best, a win is a win, and Obama will win North Carolina! What is she doing on the back of a truck? What an insult! I am originally from North Carolina and we are not Hillbillies! Wow it amazes me, the uneducated people that vote for her! She is like a chameleon, Next she will be spitting tabacco and claiming she grew it on her family's farm!.

CNN is now CON. Cable Opininion Network. Please give the news and I will make my opinion.

It seems wright saga has played out. The major beneficiary is the media as media is gonna get attention from eevryone and hence generate more revenue. I hope and pray for a day when media stops twisting truth and talk honestly without taking things out of context. Peter Paul VS Hillary Clinton is in court... no reporting. I doubt if this comment would make its way to the opinions expressed by readers.

They are both probably running much harder now that they realize that if you come in second you get euthanized.

Listen party elders my republican friends had already started circulating articles on the internets about who would Americans like to be their first lady, the people they wouldn't want parading the Whitehouse if he's elected and Obama who seem to have distance himself from Rev Wright will most definately apologize to the man and bring him back to the white house.Democrats strategist has to be proactive and be ready.

It doesn't matter how much she 'narrows the gap' or even wins the presidence, Hillary has done herself and the country a disservice by her lying and cheating, her below the belt remarks and horrible and misleading attack ads. She has forever ruined her reputation for being principled, if ever she had one and she will have taken the country with her. What kind of a win is that? Oh yes, a win is a win.

Am i the only one, that has noticed that Obama cannot look People
in the face when talking to them,such as with Tim Russert this morning?

Reba

your use of the term "poll of polls" cracks me & my family up – i've got over 30 relatives living in NC & 22 of them are registered democrats the rest are independents & not one of them were ever polled – they are all for OBAMA!

Democrat's are Finished in November.. All this tells me, is they are comitting Suicide... Go Hillary do you're best...

Polls again CNN. With your bias reporting which favours the Clinton. I can bet if you had a poll on your viewer 6 out of 10 people will not watch or doubt your reporting after this election is over. Bias Bias and down right unfair.

Of course is tightening, Hillary now has a clear message, "its the economy stupid". Sen. Obama has had problems now with his message, especially in rural America. This is not over folks... Hillary should have lost by double-digits in Guam, yet she lost by 7 votes, this is big, this is really big... a win or a lose by less than 10 points in N.C. will be a disaster for Sen. Obama.

Rise Hillary Rise!

Is Hillary putting on some weight? Looks like it.

Why not stop reporting on insignificant changes in ridiculous polls and talk about Paul vs Clinton. I can't imagine why a one point difference is more important than a large-scale campaign finance scandal.

I certainly hope North Carolina votes for Hillary- its all in their hands now. Hillary is the strongest candidate and she has proven it. She will win against John McCain. Go Hillary.

Hold your hats Obama supporters, tuesday will be dark & stormy for your guy BHO. Guam was a HUGE indicator as to how NC / IN will shape up. His lead has diminished and his days are numbered. Superdelegates are you watching this race? What once was is no more! He is not the guy we thought he was, it's time you change your vote to HRC for President!
If you want to Whitehouse back you need to act now!

Perhaps some people are getting a fresh look at tha slick Snake Oil salesman from IL?

Go North Carolina!! Give Hillary all of your support.

Two words for Clinton ....Bradley Effect
She is in for a shock

Hillary wins by 9 points...it's a blow-out
Obama leads by 8 points ..He's hang on for dear life!

What happened to objective reporting morons???

for all those who think that the peter paul thing is real go to factcheck.com it is an internet hoax. I looked it up because of you all and it is a pieced together to make a new story. Really CNN should report on this.

LOL.....I'm in NC right now and I saw a poll and its showing Obama up by 11points........I working on getting new voters......LOL....CNN lets get real......

We almost got to the point that anyone with half a brain
can become president, plus, why we always talk about caracter ?
when we know that to be a senator, you have to compromise all the time,
When is the last time that a senator was elected President

Closing in! Seems as if this might be a real sqeaker too. The superdelegates are watching these last few very closely. I'm hoping for a Hillary win here and Indiana. Wouldn't that be great!!!

And by awaiting moderation in terms of posting coments do you mean, rejecting comments that clearly blast CNN for bias delivering of political news.

Tuesday= the turning point in the race

GO HILLARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

CNN: also report that Obama is up by 1 in Indiana as of today.

I would like to know why Rev. Wright's picture is plastered on the homepage of CNN. This is old news and old news is no news at all!

Why is it that the uneducated seem to buy hillary's snake oil ?

Nothing new.

Obama will take N. Carolina.

The heading below the pics is incorrect should state Clinton narrowing the gap.

Here's a news flash: Obama is still going to win North Carolina and by double digits, too. Honestly, CNN, your spin is beginning to reveal itself.

Clinton cannot win North Carolina. Clinton cannot win Indiana, Clinton cannot win the Nomination. Unite for the General Election democrats. You have your candidate.

Obama 08

Obama" Candidate Wins that Louisiana Special Election

well well well...doesn't this look familiar? CNN trying to make news out of nothing. A one point change in the polls in well within any statistical margin. They did this with the polls in Penn too. Wouldn't be surprised if nothing changes come voting time. CNN is desperate for news again.

Excuse me? I recall seeing a series of three polls on the CNN polling map last night showing him with an average 7 point lead. So how is this race "tightening," exactly?

Stop trying to make this exciting, CNN; the race is effectively over. NC will be an easy win for Obama.

Its no wonder his polls have dipped with the wall to wall race baiting coverage by your network. However, I am confident he will win the state just as the democrat did in Louisanna despite the race baiting. CNN should be ashamed.

Obama can't win in the GE – the democrats are surrendering their chances to reclaim the White House out of pride for their golden boy.

If we want to win we will need to all get behind Hillary now. Or, we can lose the GE and hopefully Hillary will run in 2012.

Whats this, Obama down ONE PERCENT and its news? Isnt that within the margin of error? Yes, it is. CNN is the Clinton News Network.

Americans don't have a time to gamble by chosing president candidate that they don't really know.
Hillary Clinton is the right '08 US president.

The polls are not always right. OBAMA will win the nomination. Hillary needs to stop planting racist seeds because she will have to figure out how to undo all of those once OBAMA gets the nomination. It's sad that she hates to lose. She is doing a world of harm to the Democratic Party. It's sad that we are being done in by one of our own. Bow out gracefully Hillary. You need that NY job.

--------------------------–
CNN blog moderators why are you not posting these links defending Sen. Clinton from the rumors and lies being spread on this website? You have posted several links that are upholding these rumors and lies but refuse to acknowledge the truthful ones. Shame on you!!
Are you a volunteer for the Obama Campaign?

Hello American People!

Well, it seems that really the tide is turning for American people who Really Love and Take Care about our country, the United States of America!!!

God Bless America!!!

CNN blog moderators. Why do you not post my links defending the Clintons?

There's so many way to make look positive for HRC but she she's the one needing a K.O. in the remaining primaries.

The winds of CHANGE are blowing...its going to be very interesting to see which way the wind blows....ITS DEFINITELY BLOWING DEMOCRATICS WAY!!!

This is so exciting..Keep it going Indiana and North Carolina!!!

Would someone end this circus! So freakin tired of the joke and spectacle it has become.

wolf...get off the rev. wright. let's hear about the economy, the two wars, iran, health car, anything, but the rev. who has nothing to do with what effects americans. PLEASE ADRESS THE ISSUES!!

Excuse me...."abundantly."

I just sent in a comment and the racist channel just swallowed it up. Great freedom of speach Communist News Network (CNN).

OBAMA 08 &12

I hope everyone heard that Hillary can't name ONE economist that agrees with her Gas Tax plan.....although the oil companies agree........

DON'T BELIEVE THE HILLARY HYPE!!!!!

Obama is in trouble. He stated on Meet the Press today the following quote:

He said, "Israel is an ally of ours, it's the most important ally we have in the region and there is no doubt that we would act forcefully and appropriately on any attack against Iran, nuclear or otherwise"

It is a freudian slip and he is a wolf in sheep clothing set to destroy Israel and the U. S.

Zogby has him still at 9points ahead....like they had him yesterday. Bottom line is, he is still ahead enough to win. He also went up in the polls one point from Saturday to Sunday in Indiana according to the Zogby poll.

Go Obama!

Yea, and the CNN polls had Obama within 5 in PA

Indiana and North Carolina voters go get a copy of globe and read the secrets of hilary........... you wont believe what you see and hear about her

One point is statistically insignificant...the Headline is misleading

In southern states, polls have consistently underestimated Obama's votes, because they have not sufficiently weighted young people and AA.

why dont the voters just pick up a copy of GLOBE and find out the real story about hilary and her closely guarded secrets about her in closet girlfriends.............
get the globe magazine at your local grocery and gas convience stores.

Barack "WHINING" Obama

Go Hillary keep on truckin... You will win NC & Indiana
The American people are waking up to the lies and side winding, fork tongue Obama.

Hillary Clinton says anything and do anything to get vote! The only thing on the Clintons's agenda is to win at any cost, including their own integrity!

Hillary Clinton MAKES REPUBLICANS SMILE EAR-TO-EAR for her POINTLESS race and tear down Democratic Party.

She could beat the pants off obama and the MSM and his crazy butt supporters would say obama won.....

CNN what a misleading headline ....one point is insignificant..the poll mirrors Zogby which has OBAMA up 9... The headilne should read OBAMA maintains lead in NC...come on lets be fair.....

The black voters are majority in NC, Obama is the president of the blacks. It's the truth and not the racism.

For the life of me, I cannot work out how anybody could honestly consider Obama as President of the US.

He doesn't even look the part – he's more like a basketball player in a suit. All that's missing is the BLING!

Trying hard to keep Clinton's hopes alive for one more miserable week, eh, CNN?

Please check the caption to the picture with this post. It says the complete opposite. Clinton is gaining, not Obama.

Go Hillary! We'll support you all the way!

The picture's caption is mistitled. It should read Clinton, not Obama.

Very disappointed with CNN, my favorite news station for continuing to magnify the Wright issue. There are more important issue than Wright. CNN is falling into Wright's trap by giving him media coverage.

Be fair and move on!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

CNN you are not being fair on Obama. Are you part of Clinton's campaign team? Very bad of you!

The polls go up the polls go down lets see what happens tuesday!

Go Obama 08 Yes We Can

Voters know Obama is all talk and no solutions!

You don't want a Comment.. you want Praise for the Idiot Obama.

Solutions for America. Not hype.

wow a 1 point change overnight...is that even a statistically significant change? this is not news. this is biased reporting.

I have already voted for Clinton this past week – I love that we can vote early. NC is going to be closer than you all think – I'm hoping Hillary will take it by, say, 7 votes! LOL

Hillary will win this one, along with Indiana... They are Her's for the taking. Go Hillary Super Jet.

If Hillary manages to pull off an upset in North Carolina, not saying this will happen, but if she does, she will win the nomination.

CNN-ClintonNewsNetwork

Wow.. is this all CNN have for News. For a News organization that Claims to be the "Best" in News. Can you give us anything else?

is the net work news media getting paid to keep wright story alive

yeah right....she wish she can narrow it...lol

hey,but CNN,why is it that every time I come around here, I only see news about Clinton?? are you trying to tell us that its only Clinton in this race??

how about you tell us about how she called economists that are against her gas tax holiday elitists??
here.."I'm not going to put my lot in with economists"... Clinton added....."this mindset where elite opinion is always on the side of doing things that really disadvantage the vast majority of Americans."

hope you publish this

and btw, im starting to doubt your polls

Who cares? This race is over and the media is just trying to get ratings. Clinton could win by ten points in NC and still lose the over all primary race. The Dems just need to get together and start backing their pack leader and concentrate on Nov. Obama is the D's man.

Vote for Hillary to save the democratic party. Vote for Obama to give the presidency to McCain.

Hillary needs to win the remaining 9 contests by an average of 70%. In early March her super delegate advantage was 56 – today it's 20. CNN's breathless pandering for Hillary aside, the 2008 Democratic Presidential nominee is Barack Obama. He will go on to beat the clueless warmonger by double-digits, even if McCain does choose Hillary as his running mate.

Is a 1% decrease really a story? That's still well within the margin of error, and it could've just been a polling inconsistency.

Come on home North Carolina! Together we can do it for Hillary!!!

Come on NC....don't be fooled by the Clinton's. Obama is our future and our truth! Barack doesn't just tell you what you want to hear he tells you like it is....if this country is to get fixed then we need to be done with the Bush's AND the Clinton's.

OBAMA for our FUTURE!

are you people serious? headline "narrowing". small print 9% to 8%????!?

i will be voting for mccain ,if clinton steals this nomination from obama.not that i want another republican president,but,i'd rather have a numbskull in office ,rather than a president who lies over and over,just to get elected.i was deeply inspired by obama,and registered as an independent to vote for him,after taking a hiatus from bogus elections, [the last time i voted was when ross perot ran in '92] ,that only put the same old negative politicians back in the wh year after year.why do people keep putting do-nothing politicians in the highest office of our land?keep your $28 ,hillary.i don't sell my vote to anyone.

What about the Indianna polls that show Obama slightly edging Clinton despite the rough week he's had. Folks go to RelclearPolitics.com for unbiased election info/polls. CNN is just disappointing at this point and its becoming a pattern especially the last few days before major primaries.

I don't need hope and change. I need job and bread. It seems Obama 's supporter cannot get the sittuation that this country in right now. Hope and change cannot help your bill.

It is interesting that in Indiana the latest poll shows Obama up by 2 and there is no mention of that on CNN.

This is the same bunk that everyone was saying about Obama and Pennsylvania and look how it ended up. Polls are just that, polls, and anyone who banks on them being the truth are naive. What matters is how people vote on election day.

I wish the lead ducking lady would just amitt she can't win.

Why don't you print the eloquent article in the Charlotte Observer supporting Barack Obama or Tom Hanks' endorsement?

Don't worry. CNN and it's biased and the Billary Hillbillies (closet racists) are trying to steal this for Hillary but the youth shall set us free!!

Obama 08

Me and my wife voted yesterday, lot's of Obama support at the polls

The tightening of the race in NC proves that voters can be duped. Hillary Clinton is a fraud. She is insulting people's intelligence with her gas tax holiday scheme; she is endorsed by leaders of what she termed "the vast right-wing conspiracy." She has no commitment or even attachment to truth, candor, and principle.

If Hillary wins the Democratic nomination, then we Democrats deserve to be defeated and the country deserves what it gets.

I am confused (really I'm not, I think CNN is). Can you please make up your mind. One heading says the race is tightening, then one says Obama is gaining. If you didn't know, that is a contradiction. Obama is in the lead so he has to be losing ground if the race is tightening.

Regardless, a win is a win just as Clinton's was in Pennsylvania and Obama will win North Carolina.

Obama will take NC!

Don't make too much of the polls. Obama will win by double digits.

3 days and counting of rev. wright being on the front page of cnn politics.

On the most crucial weekend, no less.

Who paid you to work for Clinton, CNN?

Just watched a clip from another news program where Obama's campaign manager Axlerod says.......yes he has take hundreds of thousands of dollars from pacs and lobbyists but......he wants to stop doing that........Hello more hypocracy it's sickening!

HHMM, maybe people in NC don't like Wright's insane rhetoric . . . or possibly it's that they fear Obama was referring to some of them with the clinging to guns and religion" business. Lots of guns and religion in NC. Also, LOTS of people smart enough to realize that Hillary Clinton is the best choice in this race.

A win is a win!

My question is to CNN is , if Rev Wrights picture should be held on the Politics page, then why isn't John Hagee's picture there... Or Peter Paul. One says Katrina happened because of Homosexuals and he's Mccain's pastor the other well he was robbed by the Clinton.. No it's not a rumour there's is enough evidence for a trial... It's just that the judge who was apointed by Bill Clinton himself moved the case after November Election. You know the same way the media never reported about Mccains "affair" with a lobbyist AFTER the fact that he was nominated the Rep nominee.

Well of course she is gaining groud. CNN won't give us fair and balanced news. They spend 24/7 bashing Obama and they dance with joy when the poll numbers change. History will show that the news media stole the election from Obama and stole our only chance to change America. I hope you are proud of yourself CNN execs. You "win the battle" but "loose the war" for the future of America. Shame on you.

Obama will prevail. NC is tired of old politics. We know that we need someone who really "feels our pain" and means it.
Hillary, stop pandering!

Obama '08!
.

Hope polls are right this time. I hope Obama will take more.

Time to update.....Hillary gains 2 more delegates in Pennsylvania primary....

why is wolf blitzer being so biased against obama?he brings up the rev.wright ,everyday.that horse is dead,so quit beating it,please!

It was 7 a couple of days ago, then 9 and now 8. Is that tightening? I would say that is a consistent lead for Obama...

Music to a lot of ears! The Immature One has demonstrated his poor judgment and lack of experience over and over again. It finally seems to be coming back to bite him.

Here she comes. On your track, ready to go and smack you back.

Senator Obama, who is your Mommy or Daddy!

It's Clinton.

Hillary 2008

Why does CNN feel it necessary to put so many items about Hilary? What happen to being the news source for ALL? It is so obvious CNN is in love with Hilary. You are always reporting on Polls, but then say they really don't matter – I guess you and Hilary have a lot in common.

I guess CNN wants another Clinton in the white house – better start prepping Chelsea now, she'll be running next....

How can you have a headline that says the race is tightening in North Carolina when the change in the poll is only 1% with a margin of eroor significantly greater than that? This is exactly the kind of media reporting that distorts the news, and why Obama has such a strong following to get at the truth.

Polls are wrong. Because in the next two days to come, more and more peoples will have a chance to watch be google what is coming in november for both Clinton's like the trial with Paul vs Clinton... Hope ths will be posted cnn thanks

with the bradly effect and the trend of undecided to brake 2-1 for clinton this is within 1 or 2 % points

Just a note to CNN: Maybe if you would take Rev. Wright's picture OFF the political page and let the ISSUES take the headlines?
Barack Obama will be the nominee despite all this junk.
I don't recall Hillary's picture arriving in Bosina staying on your front page very long. Something is amiss here.

I think some of your reporting lacks substance and simply misleading. First of all, the methodology by which you come up with the margin separating Sens Obama and Clinton is not appropriate because you are averaging polls that were collected using different sampling frames and which have different margins of errors. Second, even if we are to concede that this margin is acurate, there is nothing suggesting that the race is tightening. If I recall correctly, Sen Obama's lead has been between 8 and 10 for much of the post-Pensylvenia primary. Substentively, a 1 0r 2 point(s) difference is pretty insignifcant. So while the race might have tightened right after the last primary (when Obama's lead srunk from 15 to 8-10), it has stabilized for much of the past week. Thus, headlines such as "Race is tightening in North Carolina" just a few days before crucial primaries are old news at best or simply misleading.

Eric M.

cant belive ind. and north carl. are willing to sell ther souls for a pack of lies.

Keep the race going so America can find out the truth on Barack Obama who is playing "Lawyer Games" by telling "Lawyer Truth" to Americans. Obama is Chicago Politics which is just as mean and nasty as anything the Clintons can put out. I want to hear what kind of change and how to pay for it. Give America Specifics!

Hillary says she is appling for the job of president.

Question: WHAT EMPLOYEE WOULD HIRE YOU or ME WHEN YOU HAVE LIED ON YOU APPLICATION?

Your polls are not reliable. If OB is leading by 8 lets add the +4% point margin of error. So now that makes him leading by 12%.

All we want is a win. We will take it with 2 point or 1 point.

when obama takes nc,tuesday ,it will be all over for hillary,i hope .i'm getting sick of this race ,and the way hillary panders.i'm beginning to think the clinton machine is going to steal this election from obama.if and when that happens,this nation will be in big trouble,because i'll never vote ,again.i was going to use my stimulus check,to donate to obama ,when or if he gets the nomination.i thought it would be the best way to really make a change ,in this country.cnn ?why do you keep bringing up rev.wright ,everyday?obama has done what he had to do ,but you keep putting it in front of our faces.are you trying to influence voters?i'm either voting for obama ,or i'm voting against hillary.we can not afford anymore liars in the wh.i'd rather stay in iraq for a 100 years than vote for another liar like george bush.

Obama! Obama! Obama! You have gone through a lot of obstacles more than any other candidate. God will give you a resounding success and bless America with unity and prosperity!

if the democratic candidates want to help in health care programs why don't they make a proposal to lower the age limit for social security and medi-care & medi-caide. If they want to help the economy and job problem why not start major programs and build factories to promote solar power inititives. Utilities and oil companies already take most of people's paychecks.

I WILL VOTE AGAINST OBAMA IN NOVEMBER

REGARDLESS

Here's the true facts.
Obama will lose the white vote 62% to 37%. With over 1.5 million people expected to vote, and with the white vote making up almost two thirds of the expected vote, this equates to 620,000 to Obama's 370,000 votes. A difference of 250,000 votes. Hillary will lose the black vote 10% to 90%. With the black turn out expected to be 33% of the overall vote, this equates to 450,000 to Hillary's 50,000. A difference of 400,000 votes. The hispanic vote makes up a very small percentage of the expected vote. With that being said, Obama will win N.C by about 150,000 votes which is 10% of the expected turn out. Depending on how the hispanic vote break Obama will win by 8 to 10 points. You can take that to the bank.

Zogby has it at 10% - up from Friday. They also show he is up another percentage point in IN.

The math will prevail and Obama will be the nominee-regardless of all these now meaningless primaries. All this excitement is just media hype and campaign spin. The Queen of Entitlement cannot catch up with Senator Obama, no matter how nasty she gets, how pandering she becomes, how fretfully her husband pleads, how many empty promises she makes (gas tax b.s.). She does not have enough states left to catch the Democratic nominee for president, Barrack Obama. Hillary and Bill should start working on speeches to help to elect Obama over McCain.

I hope this signals the end of the Clintons McCain Coalition. With the beating Obama took in the press over issues not pertaining to his policies but more so to personal issues, Clinton should have been beating him comfortably. However the truth be told that the American people are forgiving and still believes Obama is capable of leading the country out of its present state. It is change we can believe in.

OBAMA TRUE COLORS ARE SHOWING NOW....

I VOTED FOR HIM AND WANT MY VOTE BACK NOW THAT I KNOW

I WANT TO CHANGE MY VOTE TO HILLARY!!!!!

it's just too funny hillary complained to the media about being biased to Obama and now the media is now pro hillary and just keep attacking Obama, get off the Jeremia Wright story, why do you all keep bringing up this issue. I think deep down you all don't want to see an african american win the election. I can tell you this if Hillary wins the nomination she can forget about my family going out to vote.

Obama criticizes Hillary's gas tax reduction proposal, but what is his proposal? He never has one-just votes "present" as he did over 100 times. After he's been President for four years, he'll still be calling for "change" but with no idea of what to change into.

I am a Hillary supporter but if his lead went from 9 points to 8 points, that is NOT a narrowing of his lead given the fact that polls are not that accurate.

did u see today's poll? obama 48 and clinton 37 and 8 undecided. obama is leading in Indiana. i know what CNN is saying. CNN actually lost its credibility. the most distrusted name in news.

Well Obama was expected to win Guam by a landslide, but he only
by 7 votes(not 7%) Voters are starting to realize that Obama
cannot beat McCain in the election.

It seems really funny that every time Obama does or says somthing
wrong they blame Clinton.

You Obama need to get a grip, Obama is burying himself and
Hillary has nothing to do with it.

She should be going after him more, especially that he is anti american.

REMEMBER IT WAS 7 VOTES IN GUAM NOT 7%, YOU PEOPLE NEED
TO LEARN HOW TO COUNT, BUT THAT IS THE MENTALITY OF THE
OBAMA PEOPLE>

This is just another example of the media running their stupid polls and putting it on 24 hours a day to make news. I hope the American people wake up and read about this Hillary Billary. The Clintons are the most corrupt people in Washington. Do we really need an ex president in the White house that was impeached. Why does the media try to run the elctions. Could it be that it is own by the conglomerates that are ruining our country. Report news, stop speculating and let the voters vote. Report about Hillary's lawsuit going on right now in CA. Paul vs Clinton. This shows you how dangerous this lady really is. I hope the voters come to their senses.

CNN is terrible. This is not news. You have been showing the same thicker for two weeks. You really want this race to continue

North Carolina and Indiana voters will consider that Hillary supported NAFTA until she started running for President (read her book); that she lied about her foreign experience and ducking sniper fire in Bosnia (many times); that she lied about being instrumental in negotiating peace in Northern Ireland (she went to a tea); that she lied about guiding the State Childrens' Health Insurance Program through the Senate (something the sponsors, Edward Kennedy and Orin Hatch, refute); that she tops the Senate in Earmarks and will not release the list of the corporations those earmarks will benefit; that she sat on the board of WalMart, claiming to be instrumental in improving the rights of women, when in fact WalMart is anti-women; that she sold her soul to the likes of Rupert Murdock and Richard Mellon-Scaife, who accused her husband of murder; that she still has not released her 2007 Income Tax Returns. Wake Up Clinton Supporters! There is NO integrity there.

"What experience and history teach is this: That people and governments have neve learned anything from history."

Quote by: Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Philosopher (1770-1831)

Some voters today are still afraid of change and moving into a new direction. Even the above quote, early in time, proves this.

People who divide, either with RACE or FAITHS, keep this and other very negative issues at bay.

Great and Impressive thinkers try to teach those willing to succeed for the future, are sometimes critized in doing so.

This is why, media of all scenarios, thrive on negatives and people who are not knowledgable of what it takes to improve, in reality, situations that have/still are thrush upon them.

As we head for another generation of change, we must learn from history, in the making now, to project the positive clearly of these changes. The internet has been, in some degree, a means of connecting with the smalle planet earth, but has developed into a negative outlet for those willing to continue divisions and separation of those not willing to improve the nation and world.

Senator Obama, even with his faults (like all of us), is truly trying to connect. Loyality to this country and what he has acheived, even through diversity, has shown this direction. Maybe he doesn't wear the flag pin, neither do The Clintons, McCain, or millions of other people. Are they disloyal to this country?

When we look into the history and division, the Clintons and McCain type of people continue to show themselves to be. We can see the underworld of deception and the continuation of the type of government we say we don't want.

Therefore, the above THOUGHT, still holds true today!

If everyone would tell the true story about Obamas ties with tony rosco.Obama took his campaign money people were sending him and using it to buy some land and a big house without paying taxes ripping the American public off.. why doesnt the media bring this out into the open? Obama is a big liar ..American public better wake up to the fact we cant trust this man!!!! I know this is what u werent asking but im tired of his lies and deceptions . The people in the white house better rethink who they want in the white house cause Obama isnt going to do them any favors. as far as the polls go i truely hope Clinton gets it she is the best we could have for a president..

With all the help she is getting from the media, she is supposed to do much better. Otherwise, she would have serious problems in November if she is the nominee.
Obama is really good!!!

No empty promises. 10 years ago is not today; what we do today will have effects in years from now. Do we want scandals, impeachment all over again in the whitehouse and less focus on the serious things for the country now?

I'm not an Obama supporter but CNN this is getting ridiculous. Is the reason you are so obviously supporting Clinton that the continued fight helps your ratings?? Where are the headlines that the governor of NC and Bill Clinton opposed the gas tax holiday (the governor of NC just several weeks ago)? What about the oil lobbyist working for Clinton out rallying the tax holiday? Your headlines seem to be just pushing her momentum along when fact should not always support it.
Like I said I'm not an Obama supporter but I think the American public deserves better than this. I'm tired of the lies and deceit of the Clintons and the media pushing it along. Unfortunately I'm left wasting a vote for Ron Paul this election cycle.

CNN ....WHAT DOES IT MATTER IF THE RACE IS TIGHTENING, OBAMA IS GOING TO WIN!!!

This race has become more about marketing and advertisement for your (CNN) pockets. So, keeping this race in the news benefits YOU!! The American people (Dems) are being fooled due to mis-direction of topic.

President Obama, keep hitting your 'FREE THROWS!' She's going to keep fouling and CNN has swallowed their whistle.

Clinton is not winning, Jeremiah Wright just founded a new party. Obama is battling several fronts simultaneously, and McCain will probably win the whole thing.

CNN- How come you are not talking about Cazayoux win in LA?....Remember he was the one that Rep. said would be defeated b/c of his ties to Obama. Once again the voters have spoken!!!! And the Dem. take a seat that was held by Rep. for nearly 30 years

Obama did an excellent job on Meet the Press this morning. He was relaxed and very presidential....

Obama is victim of CNN bias

goog lord, CNN, you stil have rev wright up there....this is trully unfair, a picture of april 27th, with april 27th news, and videos....cmon....dont you think this is unfair....and will this piture be up ntil monday night, or tuesday morning?

That's amazing. Considering how Obama is outspending Clinton by huge amounts of money. Also considering how over 90% of African Americans seem to be voting principally on skin color and not on experience or issues. Given those factors, Obama needs a huge double digit victory in NC otherwise it's a big loss for Obama.

She could take it!
Sweet!

wolf is campaigning fr hillary.he is obsessed with wright. i wonder why he might as well employ him. liv it wolf u r a idiot.

SMART NC Voters will vote for Obama.....we have seen the way Hillary has run her campaign..... full of lies, negative ads, and trying to DIVIDE and DESTROY the Democractic Party.
Obama/Edwards08

Why do you guys (CNN) keep doing this with the polls? We know that Obama is going to win in NC, but saying that Hillary might have a chance when she doesn't makes no since at all. I wonder why Obama didn't get the same press in PA?

I think the words under the picture should say " A new CNN Poll of Polls shows Clinton gaining in North Carolina" since Obama's lead is down from 9 to 8 percent.

I hope the nice people of the beautiful state North Carolina vote for Hillary Clinton.

She is experienced, for the people, and a fighter.

Hillary 08

Oh and one more thing...will you be asking why CLINTON can't close the deal???

Shame on you CNN. No matter what you do, Hillary will not get the nomination at this point. The superdelegates know better that giving Hillary the nomination will destroy the party for a long time.

Let Barak win or lose like others. By the way, you and your media friends report about Barak losing the votes of those uneducated blue colar people. Is Hillary winning the African American and young votes?

CNN, I'm not sure what the point of this story is. Really, can you tell me? Obama will win NC by double digits and I mean real double digits not 9.3...lol...He may also win IN....now if he wins both, will the media finally admit to the American electorate that CLINTON HAS ALREADY LOST????

Finally Mr Obama electvility is a huge issue, too many contraversial issues with out answers, we can not lose this time again

What is the percentage of UNDECIDEDS????

If it is 8%...then NC might become a tie, like Guam....there are 500 spoiled ballots in the largest village of Guam...so Clinton could wind up winning in the recount!

Nice of CNN to leave rev. Wright's pic as the lead story all weekend. Another example of the media making the decsion of who will be elected!

Zogby has him at 9 yesterday and today. You guys are bad at analysis grasping at anything for a headline.

Also Zogby has Obama over Clinton in Indiana now by 3.

This is it, make no mistake where we are.

Remind me again why we are supposed to put anything into these polls???

you go obama

wake up americans and see who hil-billy really is. she is sly, rich, overbearing, deceitful, mad,.....

obama, 08

Gonna be a very exciting day on Tuesday.

Clinton wants to talk about voting records?

WHO VOTED FOR THE WAR? BILLARY DID.

OBAMA 08

HRC=LIAR

GET OUT THE VOTE FOR OBAMA!!!!!!!!!
