Never give up, never surrender! I truly admire Sen Clinton, she's tough.

Nancy- as one of your staunchest supporters I am very disappointed.
There is NO WAY that Hillary Clinton will be the nominee- and in your position, you should be pushing for party unity–not more insanity.
The Clinton folks have been insulting you – calling you names and trying to have someone else be Speaker of the House. This is an interesting twist to say the least.

I don't get Pelosi.

One week she's advocating for the party to unite and get behind one candidate and then the next......this!

What the heck? Did the Clinton's get to her, too, with their back door politics?

I had hoped tha Pelosi would be a voice of reason. I guess not.

The countdown continues.....273, 272, 172, 171, 170, 169.........

I have added Lanny Davis to the Clinton Lie and Spin Club roster. Does anyone believe the Clintons are happy with the Indiana results? North Carolina?

As long as it remains a democratic process, played on majority approved existing rules, campaining in the 48 DNC popular mandate is healthy and necessary for our country.

Being a majority 'white' populace, voting for a both black and white extremely articulate and brilliant U.S. Senator - even in our democracy - is no small potatoes affair!

Come together, let us heal, let's rap our minds around it. Hold him accountable. We can, we've done it. We're being given more tools and more of a stage here. We've been supportive.

We can talk. We can write. We can walk. We can confront. We can vote. We can think. We can labor. We do all the time.

Uplifting our representative democracy to more vigorous and enlightening levels, it is happening right now, this is why I am for Barack Obama.

The seemingly nice and good natured fellow is irrefutably inviting all Americans to join him in adding our voice to the discussion of our country is run.

Shall we? Is it real this time? Inspired? Motivated? Will it happen? Do you buy in? While skepticism is okay, cynicism - I dare submit - is not advisable.

I really believe that Hillary Clinton is the stronger candidate against John McCain. Obama is out of touch with the other 3/4 of the population. I am a true democrat, not a liberal. I agree more with McCain than Obama. If Hillary does not get the nomination I will definitely vote for McCain. I feel many Clinton supporters will also vote for McCain. Obama is out of touch with real democrats. The liberals will ruin are party.

I have already left a comment, but it hasn't been posted. I'm a conservative so I'm thinking "media bias". Oh, wait that doesn't exist. Right

Hillary still there only because of Bill and his powerfull friends in the
Democratic party,Obama will beat old MC by 75% of the American vote
never ever in the History of USA running for president have touch peoples
as Obama did last night,all those white old ladys were listening to Obama and thinking only if that was their child,Obama is the BEST/BEST
the guy is real,only real peoples can do what he did last night,in front of WHITE/BLACK/BROWN/WHITE CHOCOLATE/YELLOW as anybody of you want to call the peoples that were listening to him live lastnight
thanks

I read somewhere else that one possible reason for the absolutely inexplicable stance, and lack of action, on the part of all the leaders in the DNC (Pelosi, Dean, etc) is because Hillary has either promised them something, or more likely, threatened them with something, in order to get them to allow her to continue to run.

Given the number of people connected to various Clinton scandals over the years that have outright DIED under suspicious circumstances (do your research), I can't say I'm completely surprised at the thorough emasculation of the DNC by the Clintonista Regime.

These are very, very scary times to be an American.

Thank you, Speaker Pelosi, for not joining the chorus of party "leaders" and the blatantly Obama-biased news media in their intense and obscene pressure on Sen. Clinton to withdraw. She is right to hold her ground. Had it not been for the bias as well as the party screw-up early on in disinfranchising 2 entire states (who should be outraged, by the way) and the riduculous and complicated primary/caucus scenarios, Sen. Clinton would most likely be the nominee, and her supporters know that. We live in a new age, and the DNC better get it's act together before the next election!

She knows that she will be the next vice President Pelosi, she's the one and she support Obama but she don't to tell Clinton I TOLD YOU SO.

Now all you women Hillary supporters can get back in the kitchen and bake cookies for the men.

If King Dean thinks he can keep both the "new comers" and the party base, he'll wake up on Nov. 4th that half of his base is gone. I am taking myself and my relatives out of the Democractic Party, and leave the Party to the far left and "elites". I have voted straight Democractic tickets since 1967m and this year is the final straw that tells me it's time to move on and become an independent. By the way, I will be working feverishly to elect McCain this fall, simplu because in my books, experiences trumps hot air every time.

Two power grabbing women with PMS. Nancy Pelosi needs to spend a night with Rush. Two mouths,with no brains or common sense are better than one. The other one allows Bill Clinton to be with her. Enough said. One candiadate won't respect the flag...male. The other can't respect herself...because she's still with Bill. John McCain is three days older than Christ. What a choice we have in this world. The true leaders can't afford to run. They wouldn't be supported by the status quo anyway. Money talks, good government walks. Sad but true.

Representative Pelosi,

You have been such a major, major disappointment to the Democratic Party , democratic process, and to the House Of Representatives. What on earth have you been smoking? Did you take statistics and math in school. Can you add? Can you read? You have time to make ridiculous ads with Gingrich and yet no time to address the issues of the day. Keep quiet until someone clues you in on the election process of our party.
A very unhappy Californian woman with little regard for Nancy Pelosi.

Rush Limbaugh is a big fat pig who needs pills to tie his shoes. DIE RUSH DIE!!!

this nancy and hillary , they both are stupid

This race is not over until Pastor Hagee says it's over.
Let's forget the primary and have Hagee debate the Catholic scholars regarding his belittling Catholics and peoples of the third world nations.

thank you.

Pelois, you know better than this!!!!!! WHAT ARE YOU AFRAID OF? Will somebody TELL Hillary to step down. She said she will not step down till this party has a nominee. Well we do. She knows it, we all know it, Senator Obama is it. So do what you said you would do Hillary, step down and support the Democratic Nominee, Senator Obama.

If I were to give advice to Senator Clinton, it would be to drop out of the race as it is now ands register to run as a Indepent just like Sen. Lieberman did and see what happens. Let it be a four way Presidential race for the White House, Obama, Nader, McCain, and Clinton.

I wonder how folks would react if this were to occur?

It seems like all the Obama supporters blow up on anyone who thinks differently or has common sence. Most of all Obama's speaches are demanding you to vote for him and he false to present any real reason why anyone would vote for him. Also, he did not have any plans at all until just a few weeks ago. Plus, the Clintons have enough money and they show no signs of wanting more with plans, that seem to be as good as any and if not better, from the moment she started campaining.

WE THE PEOPLE WILL ELECT THE NEXT PRESIDENT

OF THIS NATION. I DON'T EVEN WANT THE

SUPERDELEGATES ELECTING OBAMA.

Well, what goes around comes around. Pelosi has just revealed who she is (not real) and I am dissappointed that I had been her supporter. Every American and the whole world are watching and waiting for the Democratic party to make a stupid mistake by taking away what belong to Obama to Hillary. Of cause, only a fool will think noting will happen.

i would love deep involved questions and answers on all f the major issues concerning our troubled country. maybe an issue a week to explore and debate . no more spin. no more 6o sec sound bites ,

maybe CNN can go back to being an in depth news team .

peace

I thought that America is a Democracy. So why do they keep telling Hillary Clinton to drop off the nomination race. If she wants to run up to the Convention let her do so. It is her right and her decision. As for dividing the Democratic Party, it will not happen. I have seen other Democratic Party candidates compete bitterly to the end and the Party is still united.

The media reporting is biased in my opinion. There is always mention of the fact that she is being told to step down. They should also mention that there are lots more people who want her to stay in the race. So there - I dare the media to tell both sides of the story all the time.

I do not blame the folks in FL and MI, if they feel outraged for their votes NOT been counted. As always, people who break the rules (that is, typical psychopaths), end up being enraged!!! Is this not how we explain "abuse?" The individual who breaks the rules and is challanged ends up being so outraged that she/he strike out at the person who keeps the rules!! So, let FL and MI strike out; let them keep abusing the system; let them not vote in November–

Pelosi is right "You never know with elections". And, in fact, if MI and FL will be counted as they have to be, many Obamians may face for the first time with.the reality... and not with cheats on Iraq or NAFTA

Why would anyone want to ignore the will of over 15 MILLION voters. Hillary Clinton is their representative in the race. She has won less than 1% less than Obama. That is a LOT of people who will be voting in the general election and, frankly, IF Obama is the nominee, he is going to need every single one of us. This is the first time in history there has been such an outcry of supporters of one candidate for the other to withdraw in a race this close. It's undemocratic and self-serving.

Neutral?

A month ago she was leaning toward Obama. Now it appears she's leaning toward Senator Clinton.

Does she knowing something we don't know?

Oh... Obama supporters... where are ALL those superdelegates you were expecting today? Maybe they know something also.

I am so very tired of Obama, he has caused a lot of problems that had been resolved for many years amoung the blacks and whites. I am a
Democrat and will go with McCaine if Obama wins. I've heard people say that by November we will back Obama, that is not true.

I have never donated or done anything in a campaign before, but feel that Hillary winning and Obama losing is very important for everyone in our country.

A question: Why is the only thing Ombama can say about his white grandparents is that they are raciast?? Did they not raise him and send him to the best schools. What a disappointment he must be for them,

Patti, Oregon

I think Obama is a Chocolatie hero for politics. Some one who is good looking and can speak well who fits in for low budget romantic movies in Hollywood but does not fit in for big budget movies as an action hero. I am for Hillary who is a fighter and strong.

Obama's fundraising speaks volumes for the type of support he has, where is Clinton....in her bank. She can't control her spending, how is she going to balance a budget???

Pelosi is totally an obama supporter. Don't lie about being neutral!

The only way Hillary can win is if it's stolen away from Obama at this point. I honestly can't believe that Hillary and her supporters are still arguing this point. It's mathematically impossible for her to win.

Maybe she should just go back to her Elitist argument again. After all, how dare an Elitist run for the most elite job in the world. We should have a dishwasher or bus boy taking that job instead. Stupid comments are what have dropped Hillary out of contention.

Here is my humble view:

IF Hillary did not have Bill’s help + millions of dollars this campaign would have been over months ago.

Pelosi is turning into the next Hillary.
In a state of suspended belief.

Wow. Nancy Pelosi get a back bone girly. Its called mathematics. Why do so many people in this country rely on hope and pray and 'maybe' this and that. Go on the CNN sliders for the delegates- Clinton would have to win by over 63% for EVERY state, and that was including NC and Guam which she lost. Its impossible. She needs a miracle. But let's be adults- theres no such thing as miracles in politics. Huckabee should know all about that.

She's starting to see the light too...

THAT IS A SWITCH FOR THE OLD PRUNE!!!!!!

I HAVE NO RESPECT FOR THIS WOMAN!!!!!!!

TALK ABOUT A FLIP FLOPPER!!!!!!

HILLARY COULD GET MORE DONE IN HER SLEEP THAN THIS WOMAN!!!!!!

I SAY LET THE SCANDAL BEGIN FOR OBAMA!!!

THERE IS SO MUCH MORE THAT THE MEDIA DOESN'T MENTION!!!

IT WILL COME OUT!!!!!!

WE BACK HILLARY!!!!!!!

Well, who knows what Hillary might have told these "big shots" about Obama? Hillary met with them today, and given the history of the Clintons, you never can tell what she might have said about Obama. Is this what is exciting Pelosi?

give her a break, she's well intentioned

you should let it go on everyone has the right to voice there opinion. an by voting thats there voice. as far as nancy, i have never like her she is also very weak just like obama, if we lose hillary as our next president, we will lose the election, mccain is to experianced for him an he will not defeat mccain in the general. theres to much baggage there, wright, rezko, his earmarks to his wife hospitial in chicago, that weatherman incident, his conection to chicago politics an we all no about them,we got a taste in indiana last night in that border town next to chicago. HE HAS NO EXPERIANCE. what has he done in 3 years. nothing nothing nothing. at least we know hillary will work her heart out for the american people, she loves this country, thats more then obamas wife does.

Those are very good comments from a leader of Democratic Party. It shows someone uses her brain to think at the moment. I don’t vote for Obama, not because he is an African America people, it is because he is not qualified for this job, being a leader to improve Americans’ life, being a leader to lead America to compete with other countries. I’m working in IT field, it is a comment sense, we can never give a senior position to a person who can only give talks without any proof of his qualification. ‘You cannot give what you don’t have’.

Please super-delegates, use your power to make a correction for what we have got so far, if we can ever expect a president from Democratic Party for another 8 years. You know who you should vote. Everyone should know.

Super-delegates, you know better than we common people, you don’t want to see ‘Clinton loses nomination and Obama loses election’ becomes a reality.

Thank you Ms. Pelosi

the race might not be over, but your ride as speaker is!

OPERATION CHAOS!!!

The will of the people has pretty much spoken and it’s Obama 08. Ms. Pelosi needs to start doing her job along with the rest of Congress and bringing this country to order. Eight years of deplorable leadership has not only weakened our military but has made Americans to question our way of life. I have served in the military and done my duty in Iraq and never thought that other Americans would start using forms of racial profiling when seeing other people. We are all Americans and we must stand united cause if ignorance prevails than everything we cherish will be lost. Why have several key personnel in the present administration have resigned in the last two years? Should we investigate the mistakes that were done by this administration? I say yes for the reason that many fellow Americans are dying in the Middle East and these mistakes must never happen again. To fight for our existence is one thing but to fight for corporate greed is another. Change needs to come and now.

Thank you, Nancy Pelosi!

Hillary or McCain – 2008

Nancy get with the show this race is over so stop dragging your heels .
Those super so called need to get off their ___and move forward we are tired of all this back and forth do what they were put in there to do .NOW
Obama is the winner so why are they wasting the time.

Its disgusting
The only reason Hillary was 2 points ahead was the votes cast by Republicans fallowing the big mouth R.L.
This devision of people is also more media .

You are so wonr Mrs Pelosi. It IS over. plain and simle CLINTON HAS LOST.Get her out NOW!!!

Moot.

This seems more like a respect guilt toward Hillary, as if they feel soory for her and willing to give her time for the heck of if.

Obama/Rendell '08

If you care about substance in a presidential candidate, you're for Hillary Clinton. Listen for substance, people. Don't settle for feel-good rhetoric. We have serious problems in this country and need the most capable person we can get to lead this country.

Don't take my word for it–compare Clinton's and Obama's views on the issues, in their own words, on their own websites. The more knowledgeable, thorough and capable person is clear.

Hillary stays in this fight because she believes what any intelligent person should believe . . . substance matters.

If Obama wins the nominee I will not vote!

I don't like Clinton tactics and never did. Respect for them is dwindling rapidly. If Hillary had the money in her campaign and could run it so she could pay the bills, it might be different. But to keep lending herself money and not paying her bills...that looks REALLY desperate. Mismanagement of funds...in our economic times that's NOT good. I certainly can't trust Hillary with MY tax dollars.

Not sure about Pelosi. She was supposed to get Congress to work hard for Americans, so far nothing still gets done much in Washington for some reason. That's disappointing. But then, there's the Bush factor. Hillary reminds me a lot like Bush. He does what he wants...Hillary would too, regardless of what experts advise. She showed us that when 200 economists said the tax holiday was a bad idea...and Hillary and McCain thought economists don't know anything. I only had Micro and Macroeconomics (2) courses and I knew it would be a bad idea. (and no, I'm not wealthy to afford gas for SUV)

Another case of non-leadership in the Democratic Party!

I think the Obama supporters need to realize, we will never vote for Obama! At one time maybe but after the horrible way hillary and her supporters have been treated, there is no way, I went to real clear politics read the blogs where Obama supporters were calling on us to unite behind him,and at the same time calling us names!

it.is NOT about the partys anymore! It is about our country as a whole!
And that is what WE are fighting for . Never Obama

CLINTON SUPPORTERS :

ANSWER

THIS

PLEASE

If it's important that EVERY vote counts, and it's been determinied that with FL & MI counted, Clinton still trails in popular votes, delegates, states won…… If the DNC and superdelegates wer to side with Clinton on this, would that NOT be discounting the voters (since Obama would still have the most votes WITH Michigan and Florida counted??)

I was just curious how you guys felt about that since the argument seems to be that we want every vote to count. Please explain.

If it's all about making sure votes COUNT, how do they count when the majority vote is overturned?

The urgency of now or later or whatever...

isn't this the same lady that said the superdelagates should announce their support to help bring an end to this? Am I confused? Politics are soooo weird....

Obama has won... the race is over for Hillary. Obama will be the Democratic candidate!

Boy, did she change her tune from a few weeks ago, or what? What kind of threats or extortion must have been used against her?

Now all those Clinton supporters who were demonizing Pelosi in the past can change their tune and start cheering her on!

Thank you Nancy Pelosi. My sentiments Exactly. I still don't understsnd why everybody is in such a hurry to have this race over. Look!!!! Obama can-not win the general election. Many of my friends have expressed their feelings regarding Obama and his circle of friends. They do not trust him. Neither do I. there are a large number of us that are going to the general election polls to vote as a group. If Obama is the nomenee!!! we will be voting for McCain.

Let be real do the math she will not win.

I'm disappointed that Pelosi would take this stance. I read this in disbelief. All this in-party fighting is hurting the Democratic party when it should be focusing on that other party. It's exhausting for both candidates and I'm sick of this spectacle.

It's clearly Obama's game now.

Jim: We don't want the democrats to win if Hillary doesn't get the nomination. What is the matter with you. Are you that dumb? Obama is too dumb to run this country. Oh, he might he might be able to with the help of Kerry, Kennedy, Shriver, Oprah and Richard. And Maybe his anti-american pastor just like him could play a part in it also. Get real. Obama just want to make history and its most of this generation of college students that are so dumb to the fact that he is only using them for the votes. And the white people are just as dumb. Do you think Obama cares about the blacks? Think again. Obama is only for himself and himself only and wants to make history in this country.

This kind of leadership from the Democratic party will make them
lose what should be an easy win in November with Obama.
If this happens, I'm dropping my Demoratic affiliation and registering as an Independent.

Obama '08

Nancy, Hillary should be toast. You are part of the problem as a conservative Democratic leader preventing the progressive change to happen. Hillary is harming the party every minute she continues to run. She was out of money in Pensylvania and now again in Indiana. Thank goodness for her the Clintons profited greatly from their first eight years.

Red Democrats are Republicans voting Democratic for Hillary in the primaries to hurt the Democrats then voting Republican in November. They have nothing to loose as their nominee is already chosen so they want to influence the Democratic party in their favor.

The exit polls say these voters will vote Republican in November. No true Democrat will vote for McCain for any reason. These voters gave Hillary the Republican counties in Indiana. Now Hillary thinks these people will vote for her in November. Nancy are you actually a red Democrat going to vote for McCain if Hillary doesn't get the nomination? If you are a Democrat endorse Obama. Courting fake Red Democrats will not cause them to vote for a Democrat in November.

Pelosi along with the other corrupt, self-serving leaders, both Dem and Rep, need to be swept out. With an Obama presidency will rise a new generation of leaders who will get these folks out of offce and bring America back to the citizens.

The Democrats are so divided that regardless whether Obama or Clinton gets the nod the chances to take over the White House wanes everyday. I voted Obama in the primary and I can tell you I will never vote for Clinton even if she gets the nod. So is Al Gore available maybe he could unify the party and give us a chance for the real change we need!

Nancy, Looks like you are high on something. Finish this race now before HRC blows up Iran and decimates all the children there.

Don't count on winning in November if Obama is the Nominee. Nancy why haven't you Impeached Bush/Cheney?

I take this as a Pelosi endorsement of Hillary. But as the old saying goes, the refrigerator door is closing, and the eggs are getting cold. She can stay in as long as she wants, but the math is going Obama's way. Even if FL and MI delegates are counted, their numbers don't help Hillary. She would have to pull off a major miracle with the supers, as well as in the other primaries, and it ain't gonna happen

It's fairly obvious to me that the Democratic Party (including Obama with his day off today when he could easily barrage the news) are giving Hillary a break and aren't trying to put the final nail in the Coffin. Most likely to slowly lower tensions and not shock clinton supporters with the reality. This could end today, but it would probably leave open many wounds. If Rush's strategy is called Operation Chaos, this one is Operation Unity.

It's not over til it's over.

Remember, it was not the fault of the Florida democratic party that the republicans moved the primaries up. Why should those people be penalized? We need them in the Fall.

She knows if the party heads force Billary out, it might alienate her supporters. If they let Billary die a natural, prolonged, death, however painful for all of us, then maybe her supporters won't be bitter, or at least can't blame the DNC??
Something like that maybe??

Florida and Michigan must count! BARACK OBAMA knows he will lose if they do. He is just a talker with no plan!!!
Hillary 2008

After June 15, we will know who the nominee is. If Clinton is the nominee, Obama will campaign night and day for Hillary. But he would not be VP, Hillary should choose who she wants. Conversely, if Obama is the nominee, Hillary will campaign for Obama wholeheartedly, and will not want to be VP.

California Girl: You are so right. And I believe that Hillary's votes from Lake County were thrown out because even the media was questioning the Mayor there and another Mayor in Indiana disputed the Mayor of Lake Country and did he tell him. She got cheated. How could she have had 58,000 ahead of him then all of a sudden drop down to 18,000. There is not way that could happen. And why weren't the votes counted like the other counties. Even Wolf was questioning this situation. But I say, it will all come back. GO HILLARY AND KEEP GOING. IF YOU DON'T WIN THE NOMINATION YOUR VOTERS SHOULD VOTE MCCAIN TO KNOW OBAMA OUT OF THE PRESIDENCY.

Have you people never seen a football game where the 49ers are behind and in the last 2 minutes, Joe Montana gets the ball down the field to win?

Why are you so afraid to let the process play out? Oh, I know, you think she will either pull off a win, or Florida and Michigan will get counted, or Obama will shoot himself in the foot again, or the superdelegates will vote for the candidate who can win the blue collar vote and the important swing states... Hillary.

Sure, you want her to get out now, and let Obama steal this election with his red state support which won't give him electoral votes in the Fall. Your hatred and fear of a female president is such that you would rather lose against McCain.

Listen People: Hillary will pull something out of her bag a couple of days before the primary. Do not underestimate her – or her awful pundits. Just you watch. There is no end to what she will do.

Sorry Nancy I do not agree with you. There is no way other than a train hitting Obama or he steps off a Cliff. The math is not there and the superdelegates as well as the DNC needs to recgonize Obama's accomplishments. He has gone through a very rough and potentially devistating 6 weeks, and came out strong. Give the man the credit he is due, and listen to and follow the will of the voters.

Nancy Pelosi is an absolute disappointment! She is a flopper.....................

Obama please note this
Tell your people to Stop whining
Hillary 08 or Mc Cain 08

I want to thank Nancy Pelosi for acknowledging that this is not over until it is over. Also, I just read in one of the blogs that African Americans will vote for Senator McCain if we don't give Senator Obama the nomination. Wait a minute, but aren't we supposed to go with the candidate that can win the fall? You see for me, the color of one's skin does not matter one bit. God created us all. That said, I do think that we need to look at the candidates and decide who best can win in the fall. That is the bottom line.

Please. Please. Make. It. Stop. As a loyal Democrat I have begun to conclude that our party elders are a bunch of idiots. The Republicans seem to have the brains when it comes to politics. Too bad they're so dang evil.

Obama Kool-aid drinkers you better suck up b/c many Clinton supporters are tired of your antics (by the way how many liberal elite whites live in black neighborhoods?) Just curious?

Clinton or McCain but never little o

If Rush Slimeball is supporting obama, that in itself should put Hillary on top! Wasn't Slimeball recently in trouble for drugs? Maybe he is friends with obama's friend Larry Sinclair.

I agree with Pelosi... A Win is a Win! Even Obama has said this a few weeks ago thinking that he might pull a small victory in Pennsylvania. Also, I think we all have short term memory cause didn't we all expect Obama to win North Carolina anyway by like 25 points? Why is this such a big deal for him to win another red republican state cause the republicans are going to win North Carolina in the general election anyway. Winning Ohio and Pennsylvania for the democrats are much bigger wins than winning North Carolina!

FreshAir: She lost her mind as soon as she found out that Obama's campaign manager schemed the votes in Lake County to try and run Hillary out of the race. But it didn't work. And its not going to work. Black Barack may not win the nomination after all. I read where the superdelegates advised the DNC they would vote for who they want. They also stated they would vote for who they believe is electable to beat McCain and that lets ObamaOsama out. You better wake up. The voters in the battleground state are not going to vote for Obama. They didn't like him to begin with. If Hillary don't get the nomination all those voters should vote for McCain only. We need someone with brains in the white house not a dictator.

And yall want THIS party to usher in national healthcare???

BHAAahaaHAHAAaaa

How about Governor Janet Napolitano from out here in Arizona? If Pelosi wants to give a woman a crack at the White House, Napolitano could make a great VP!

That would be far better than supporting Hillary's incredulous endeavors.

Our state hasn't voted yet and I'm actively involved in the Get Out The Vote efforts here, but I would still be glad to see the race over with Obama as our nominee before the Kentucky primary.

Nancy Pelosi's daughter is a Hillary supporter. Nancy doesn't want to PO her daughter, it will make for uncomfortable holiday dinners.

Pelosi, you are really a piece of work. Make up your mind who you support and stop trying to fake us out. First you hate her (Hillary) then you love her. You are not making sense at all.

Hillary or John McCain 08

Why lie to the American public, it's your job to follow these campaigns. Typical, this is what needs to be changed in Washington.

Nancy is doing exactly what she is supposed to be doing and saying when it comes to dealing with/handling a personality like Hillary "Never Listens To Anyone Else" Clinton or haven't you folks been paying full attention to the woman who said "I'm not going to throw my lot in with the economists" and who has no problem "obliterating Iran" yet can't take the time to read a crucial NIE prior to the Iraq war making the biggest blunder of her political career?

Hillary listens to NO ONE but Hillary period. While some equate her stubborness as this great strength it is also showing to be her greatest weakness as well. anyone who believes they knew better and more than everyone in the room 24/7 is heading for fall. Whether Sen. Clinton can grasp, admit and/or accept that she cannot control every aspect of how this nomination process is being participated on both sides remains to be seen. Nancy Pelosi is wise enough to realize that all she can do is move out of the way and keep her eye on the prize of the Democratic Party as a whole.

Pelosi and Hillary. Go GIRL POWER!!!
When Pelosi was made House Speaker, I felt it was a great victory for "my" party. But so far, she seems completely ineffectual as a leader.
With a House majority, where's the "change"? Why are we still fighting a war in Iraq? What's with the economy? Sure, we can all blame Bush. But we have a Democratic controlled Congress. With or without Obama (or Hillary), something has to change with politics-as-usual.

Please stop the bleeding in the democratic party! Hillary Clinton has stabbed the Demotratic party in the back too many times, has gone and voted just like the republicans and has lied about the gas cuts. she cannot do anything while bush is still in office neither can mccain. obama has been the only one that has told the truth to the people. lets get back on the issues. hillary lost really in indiana if the republicans that voted for her hadn't she would have lost that election. lets get real.she is destroying the democratic party and trying to destroy obama in the process.

I am happy that Obama wants to seat the delegates in MI.

This is what I have learned this year about our elective process:

Spin- The act of making an issue more important than what it is, or downplaying a critical component of that issue. It's the act of exagerating a lessor factor of an argument, while covering up the main issue of that argument. In short, it's the act of DECEIVING the intended audience in a way to influence their opinion of that issue.

Fighter- A candidate who will lie, cheat, and slander their opponent to gain an advantage.

MSM – People who support candidates on both sides, but who are SUPPOSED to be unbiased enough about how they report the news to the point where the listening audience should not have a good idea on what side of the issue they stand on.

Pundits- Propaganda agents of politicians who use the dishonest tool of spin to fool / influence an ignorant, short attention spanned audience.

In short, if our electorate was a well informed one, spin would be of no use and would be considered dishonest. It only works because the public is ignorant or uninterested.

Perhaps Nancy missed the spin the Clinton people were trying to sell before May 6th–how Hillary and Billary would easily overcome Barack Obama in Indiana and how Obama's lead in North Carolina would be cut to single digits! Well, the Clintons barely eeeeeked it out in Indiana and lost big time in North Carolina!

Madam Speaker; techinically and mathematically it is over; but 'Clinton' is like 'Huckebe' of Republican party. But your point well taken, she has the right to continue and the voters of the remaining states have right to vote.

June 3, 2008 is not that far, the only favor she can do until June 3, 2008 that she better stop talking negative about 'Obama' as he is going to be the nominee for sure.

April: If Obama is so popular why can't he win the battleground states? I can tell you why. Because they don't want him as president. Do I have to say more? What person i n their right mind would vote for a candidate who belonged to an anti-american church for 20 years unless they are in the same category. Is that you? He has the worst reputation of friends for a candidate that ran for office in this country. I hope if he gets the nomination all the voters from all the battleground state vote for McCain so we have someone with intelligence in the white house and not a lame brain.

Nancy you finnally got it right

No matter what we think the only person who knows what is right is Hillary. I personally support her and know this is very difficult decision because she truly has the best interest of the country at heart. Our country need to look at reality and realize the Republicans have us where they want us. The party is split into and will not be able to win in November because neither Obama or Clinton supporters will support each other if one or the other loses the bid.

Yes the remaining state will vote but they do not have enough collective delegates to make a difference. Florida and Michigan will be seated and that will be resolved probably by the end of the month .

But none of that matters, the super delegates will decide now .

Please stop the bleeding in the democratic party! Hillary Clinton has stabbed the Demotratic party in the back too many times, has gone and voted just like the republicans and has lied about the gas cuts. she cannot do anything while bush is still in office neither can mccain. obama has been the only one that has told the truth to the people. lets get back on the issues. hillary lost really in indiana if the republicans that voted for her hadn't she would have lost that election. lets get real.she is destroying the democratic party and trying to destroy obama in the process.

Pelosi is doing the right thing. Hillary has put her heart into her campaign. She needs to make her own choice. Let hope that Hillary will do the right thing for the Party...

Pelosi must know something bad about Obama for her to want Clinton to stay in.

If Obama is elected without counting Fl. and Mich. he will never overcome the bitterness of those who have been disinfranchised. He will loose Fl. and Mich. in November and will never be able to accomplish anything as President. He wants a new kind of politics where only 48 states count. I don't know that we need this kind of politics. I know he didn't make the rules but he did stop the re=vote in these two states. Then he talks about not being decisive.

It is obvious Barack Obama is the clear winner AND that Hillary has total disregard she is doing nothing but hurting the Democratic Party. None of the cries for her to bow out gracefully is getting through her thick skull or her supporters. I am sickened every time I hear her demand the Michigan votes be counted in her favor when Barack was not even on the ballot. I live in Michigan and did not vote because the votes would not be considered. I personally know at least 100 fellow Democrats here in Michigan…not one of them is for Hillary. In the beginning, I was one who said I would be happy with whoever won the nomination, but that soon changed when I witnessed her cutthroat behavior during the debates giving ammunition to the Republicans.

I am a single white mother who has a son serving his second tour in Iraq and have a daughter with a chronic illness. I lost my job last July, ran out of unemployment in February, now receiving food stamps, have no medical insurance, am filing for bankruptcy and waiting for foreclosure. For every job I have applied for, I am told my resume is one out of over one hundred. This country needs change and Barack Obama is the man to do it, but every day Hillary is out on her high horse is another day for more votes for McCain. If we get four more years of Bush by McCain winning the election, Hillary will be totally to blame. It is time for Hillary Clinton to get out of the Democrat race…NOW before it’s too late.

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

I smell a conspiracy.

Why wont this woman ever shut her mouth???
Let the candidates work this out !!!

Please ask her why she is underperforming at her job.

Pelosi, you've got to be kidding me!

As for Rush, i heard a good one from RR, Rush's plan for Republicans to vote for Hillary is just a way to mask the fact that Republicans are leaving the party because they failed them. maybe he is smart?

There aren't any magical numbers that are going to provide a national "win" for Hillary. Yet, as long as Hillary's got money to keep "loaning" to her campaign & enough of a dwindling voter base to lap at her feet, her ego will not allow her to withdraw.

If it did, it would make her a rational person. And, she continues to prove that she is far from rational.

Shame on you Nancy Pelosi! Stop commenting with your heart. We are living in a scientific world now. Let the reason govern your thought not your heart.

Pelosi HATES Hillary. She's being diplomatic.

Let the elections go on until Hillary is BANKRUPT of money and moral values

Our American flag has 50 stars, NOT 48. Millions of people's voices in both Michigan and Florida need to be heard. They cannot be disenfranchised. When both the DNC and the Hillary campaign proposed the revote in those two states, the Obama campaign purposely delayed the process and then rejected the proposal. Have a RE-VOTE in Michigan and Florida!!!

CA Chris: I have to laugh at you. Obama is going to run this country like Kenya. He will become a dictator like congress never seen before and its people like you that would vote for an anti-american like him. All he wants is power. Change? The only change he knows is the change in his pocket and the word hope is he hope's to become president. Obama had this planned before he became a senator.

What ever happened to the all the changes she was going to make in her first 100 days in office? Yea, that didn't happen also. Just like Hillary can never win in November.

Hillary is unelectable.

Why do so many political analysts, unlike Nancy Pelosi now agree that Obama will be the Nominee? Unless, Nancy Pelosi, who I have trusted thus far, is working some deals that could positively affect both Hillary and Democrat candidates for legislative positions.

Dear Hillary Supporters-
It is time for us to mend the wounds of the Democratic party and unite. Bitterness and resentment will not help us win the White House.
Thank you.

Why are Obama fans so nervous? IT ISN'T OVER Obama doesn't have 2025 maybe there worried something really interesting about Obama might come out hmm News Flash Obama WONT,CANT,WILL NOT beat Mcain!! Vote Hillary Vote Smart,COUNT THE VOTES! Do not disenfranchise Florida and Michagan we will go Mcain this fall if we are not counted!

HRC is the stronger general election candidate. The votes she received in Florida and Michigan should be credited to her. Obama is all rhetoric and ironically has worse baggage now than HRC.

A win is not a win, Nancy. This isn't some kind of baseball game, this is the future of the United States on the line.

Saying a win is a win is disenfranchising the 220,000+ more votes that Obama had over Clinton in NC, especially when compared to the 15,000 that Clinton only had over Obama in Indiana. A win is not a win when the popular vote is on the line, Nancy.

Dear Obama and Clinton supporters,

The race is over and no, the winner is not Obama.

The winner is McCain! Mark my word. We've lost the race regardless of who the top "nominee" is. Clinton can't take the nomination away, otherwise Obama supporters will be so disillusioned to never vote again.., and Obama can't win the racist, older, moderate type liberals.

So congratulations the democratic party!

Sad to believe we've lost again!
Get your Kleenex boxes ready because America is about to prove (for the 2nd time) that we are the biggest idiots in the world.

God Bless America, George Bush, and the oil companies!

Technically....she's correct....as long as Hillary doesn't go viscous on Obama the cycle should be completed. It's not over until one of them gets 2025 delegates votes.

Huh. KIM has an excellent point.

Option 6: Seat FL & MI based on the elections that have taken place.
(Obama does not get MI 55 uncommitted).

Good for Pelosi. A win is a win. However, my intuition is that Lake County threw away a lot of the Clinton ballots trying to get her out of the race so Obama could get the nomination. She was winning by 58,000 so how could it possibly drop that much and why did it take that long to count the ballots. There is an old saying that whatever you do will come back to haunt you. And I believe that Obama's campaign had a hand in it. She should go on because there are more states yet to conquer and she might just win Puerto Rico and Kentucky. I don't like underhanded tricks but that Mayor of Lake County is involved in this situation.

Is this one smoking crack with Hillary and Bill. Instead of trying to convince Hillary to quit cause she has no chance, she is doing the opposite. Does she want a unified democratic party? then Hillary must GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!
NOWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!
PLEASEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!!

Pelosi. Reid, and Dean have made their bed. Now they will watch the presidency go to McCain. The far left continues not to find the middle solution. I predict after this derailment Hillary will be back in 2012.

It is just a way for Clinton to exit gracefully.....She knows it we know it......I hope Hillary knows it......Let;s all unite and go after McBush!!!!

Maybe the DNC will finally admit that Obama cannot win the general!! He only has the black vote now. Go ask all those whites in Iowa, Wisc, Minn, etc, etc if they would vote for this guy again. The answer is NO WAY>>>>> now we know what he is all about. Hillary was right when she said just words. The guy doesn't have a clue what to do as President!!
Go Hillary, we support you!

This one needs to go, too. Obama's fundraising machine is now the most powerful weapon in American politics. So, Obama will be a powerful president, sweeping congress clean of the GOP, backing like-minded Dems and Independents, and signing into law every piece of legislation he proposes. Pelosi, give Obama the line item veto!

I hope there is no game playing. Because I will NEVER vote for Hillary. My support is strictly Barack.

she is still like BARACK OBAMA.

Wake up Nancy and smell the coffee. The race was over long time ago.

Enough with the whining from Florida and Michigan. If their own state party wasn't so greedy for the limelight their votes would have counted at the proper time. Either change the messy system or live with it.

What the heck is this about? When did Nancy lose her mind?

Hillary is a fighter till the end. Take it to the convention and count all states/ votes, including Florida and Michigan. This is the American way.
Hillary 08

Nancy Pelosi has lost her mind. No wonder there are 2 women running against her here in San Francisco in the upcoming election. When we voted her in Nov. '06 we thought we were getting someone with backbone and common sense. We have gotten neither from this woman. She must be subscribing to the NEW MATH that the Clintons have come up with. Why are we surprised? She lets herself be bullied by Bush and now by Clinton. They are all in it together. Pelosi lost my vote when she took impeachment off the table. Sad but true.

I voted for Hillary and, being in Florida, my vote apparently isn't worth two cents. Does that make sense to Nancy Pelosi and Howard Dean? How about replacing Howard Dean as head of the Democratic party? What has he done but cause confusion and ill will? It seems like the only way a voter can be counted in Florida is if she/he votes republican. I'm fed up! Mary K. McCormick

Hillary is done.

pelosi has only one thing on her mind in elections. to make sure that maxine watters stays in congress so she won't be the dumbest of all congresswomen.

cnn??? c'mon, play fair. do some real reporting,

If HRC drops out, all the new registration for new democrats in the remaining states stops. They want her to continue for the party.

Get real...ever heard of the MORE the merrier...

Stay in this as long as you can Hillary! Bloody Barack as much as possible so he loses in November. That way you can run in 2012!

Never. Give. Up.

Remember, this isn't about "we the people," it's about you!

HILLARY 2012!!!!!!!

All you Dumb-o-rat blowhards, on here, drinking the same kool-aid....

realize that Rush Limbaugh is a GENIUS! deal with it bit.ches!

She out to be ashamed, she made this mess with Howard Dean. Democrats, make her fix it.

Hillary waiting after Gore, after Kerry, why encourage Barack to run after Hillary was declared? The first viable female and then black person? This destroyed the party, not all this bickering amongst the voters.

The DNC is to blame for this mess, and like 2000 and 2004, we need to win back the government, to pay our bills. Hope is not enough, get it together people.

Nancy Pelosi is as delusional as Hillary Clinton. The contest is over. I wish someone in the party had some balls and would inform Hillary that she should get the heck out of town. Howard Dean is about as spineless as they come. If the Democrats want to win this November, someone in the party needs to show a little LEADERSHIP. Man, what a ridiculous bunch of people.

We will never cease til the last delegate has been seated in FL & MI! We will not let an amateur inexperienced intern run this country!
We will not allow any pundits to distract us from our goal!
We will respect Nany Pelosi's view, she is fair & she understand the logic of this election!
We will support the smart, electable choice- HILLARY!

WOW, did the Clintons have an all night drinking party at the White House with all the superdelegates in the 1990s and got some incrimating photos of these people. I don't understand why they won't be truthful about her chances of winning.

C'mon Nancy, don't be so wishy washy. We're not dumb. Well, wait, some of us are. Never mind.

Well the way I read this is Hillary's little meeting today with the DNC, deals were made and Hillary is in the bag as the nominee. People you better face it.....the SD are going for Hill. I know the math doesn't work, but they will make it work for Hillary as the nominee.

Don't you just love the american way......voters decide and poloticans take it away......

Pelosi can be so cool sometimes. A win is a win, darn it!

Rush Limbaugh says today he supports Obama because he thinks McBush will beat him. Yeah Right! Rush did not graduate college ( like most hillary supporters), but he must have took psychology 101. Rush's attempt at child psychology is pathetic. He says he wants Obama to get the nomination, yet he spends hours every day on the radio telling his listeners to cross over and vote for Hillary in the primaries. Rush also demands every day that Florida and Michigans Hillary votes be counted. WHY? Because in truth. Rush is scared to death that Obama will sweep the election and break the grip on power that the very wealthy elite have held for decades.

To all, let look at the map which OBAMA wins. Without the overwhelming support from his black buddy, can he secure the victory last night? No one can get 91%-6% win without considering something else? Please do not blindly give the US to s.o without experience. HOPE and DREAM cannot give you foods and security. WAKE UP AMERICANS

Nancy Pelosi is a brain dead Washington politician. This is part of the elder-party's ploy to seem fair to both candidates, when they have been on the Obama band wagon for several months now.

If white women want a woman in the white house so badly Obama could always choose Pelosi as his running mate. I'd vote for her.

ill seed from allhiphop.com........hahahaha.......now we know Obama has drawn alot of people into politics.......

Ok Democratic Party, don't think you will be able to turn your backs on the Black community and expect the favor to not be returned in November. We can vote McCain, if the Democratic party doesn't value our support. Just like there are racist whites who will never vote for Obama, there are blacks who will be REALLY pissed off if he wins and is not given the nomination because Clinton convinced "superdelegates" that he can't win.

Without us, Mrs. Clinton can't win either.

Everyone keeps saying she should drop out.

I guess WEST VIRGINIA, KENTUCKY, OREGON, MONTANA, and SOUTH DAKOTA don't have any more right to be counted than do FLORIDA and MICHIGAN?

I would support a Pelosi-Limbaugh ticket – any chance of that?

Nancy Pelosi knows it's not over until someone that Hillary will listen to will tell her it's over. Everyone knows the superdelegates will make that decision but I believe they are waiting until the right Hillary supporter will tell her before he or she defects to Obama. I want to see Hillary bow out gracefully and with dignity,

As long as there are primaries scheduled, why shouldn't this go on?
If it becomes a charade, the party bigwigs are the ones to blame for dragging out the process until June. They made up the timetable.

You are right Madam Speaker.... the race is not over. Hillary wants more knock-out punches and we are absolutly prepared to give to her ein teh upcoming primaries... using the same blue punching gloves she had in one of her speeches.

... and MADAM SPEAKER THAK U FOR UR SERVICE TO OUR COUNTRY!!!

I think Obama supporters are the rudest people I have ever met, especially the ones on this CNN blog.

I believe that every Democrat should be able to make an informed decision and then the superdelegates can decide as well. Pushing people to quit is not a Democratic virtue.

THESE SUPPORTERS ARE NOT DEMOCRATs AND DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE PARTY.

It is poor f\orm to push her out before anyone has a chance to heal the party. Her speeches from now on out can only provide further strength to the Democratic Party, but it won't be possible if the Obama campaign chooses poor form in doing it, especially before all votes have been decided.

I want her to continue!! Hillary Clinton is the person for me and the strength of this country. I am ashamed to call my self a democrat after the disloyalty this party has shown her. If Obama wins the nomination I will be voting for McCain and will change my party preference to independent. I can not vote or support a man who claims he has the experience and love to run this country when he can’t even manage to speak about or state what he really stands for. Nothing but complete and utter ignorance on his part and I for one do not trust him nor believe in him, despite what others are saying not all educated voters are voting for him. I am a proud and educated Latina who is choosing NOT to vote or support him.

Thanks Nancy! You have proven to all of us that you are fair!!! Let the battle end in 3 weeks, let's seat all the votes from MI & FL & see hwo's on top! HILLARY is a fighter, do we honestly think she will just surrender easily? Big mistake Obamacans, we're happy we took Indiana from you!

Clinton needs to drop out if she wants to ever win any public office again. At this rate she'll be lucky to be elected a township supervisor.

Nancy, are you letting Hillary's bulldog personality run the office
of the DNC. This is getting absolutely ridiculous. Afraid to lose
a friend or afraid of the Clintons wrath of God.??? The DNC
is "afraid of Hilldog.

Nancy Pelosi is an idiot as well!.......She knows this race is over and that if the superdelgates overturn the will of the people then we will have a Thrid Bush Term.

hillary has expired

Nancy just wants Hillary to make up her own mind...and at the same time make the right decision. To do both would give Hillary some dignity back..Lord knows she lost alot during these past 2 yrs.

Obama 08

Umm Hillary can not win... I personally will not vote for her and I havent been polled.. Be careful on what you think you know. The Clinton's name is taboo in my family. With NAFTA and Globalization it sent my family in turmoil.. She cant beat Obama what makes you think she could beat McCain? Get real and think people...

Obama 08/09

Some people feel Pelosi has not done her job.
And they believe it should be over for her too.

OMI God ! Where Have YOU Been Pelosi??? Hillary is Done ... Obama will be Our Nominee... You are Living in Disneyland... I HOPE AND PRAY YOU NEVER RUN FOR PRESIDENT EITHER, GOD HELP US.... GET WITH THE PROGRAM AND START SUPPORTING OBAMA... YOU AND HILLARY ARE CREATING BAD ROLE MODELS FOR WOMEN, MOTHERS DAUGHTERS AND GRANDAUGHTERS.... SHAME ON YOU FOR THIS STATEMENT! OBAMA SUPPORTER 08

Why does Pelosi seem to suprise people always? This makes me like her even more

Obama '08

We need some real leadership within the party. This is ridiculous.

- When asked whether she could see any path to victory for Senator Clinton, Pelosi said "You never know in elections." -

Yes you do know, it's called counting votes.

Its over..................Obama 08
