I'm with your guy too....Irene Brown DNC need to count Florida and Michigan if they not count do not let Florida and Michigan vote in general
election with both party.

To show some respect to the party and the voters and your supporters just quit

Irene Brown May 8th, 2008 12:28 pm ET

It is completey un fare not to count delegates from Florida & Michigan. Florida could not hold an elction on time due to the Republicans. There are 50 states in this country. We all pay taxes, we all should be counted. On the Novemeber election we need a democratic Nomineee to beat Mc'cain. We will not go to vote on Novemeber if the delegates from Florida & Michigan are not counted now.

-----------------–

Then all of you have earned the right to shut your mouths if McCain wins and you end up with more taxes, a bloodier Iraq, increased foreclosures, and $7.00/gallon gas.

Instead of you blaming the Democratic nominee, why don't you revolt against your state lawmakers who figured this Democratic race would be over by the time of their scheduled primaries and out of their own conceit, moved up their primary dates.

Gee, Harvey, this isn't the Oscars; you can't just buy Hillary a Best Actress Oscar!

Or can you?

Oops, I meant the polls and I meant the next 4 years. It will be your fault that we have McCain and any economic disaster or international disaster will also rest at your door if you do not exercise your right to vote in November.

WHO CARES?

All your money didn't help Clinton one bit. It is Obama's supporters with pockets wide and deep. Over 1.5 million donors strong.

Wise man!

MR. WEINSTEIN, THANK YOU FOR HAVING A REAL SET OF B#LLS!!!!! YOU HAVE EVERY RIGHT TO FLEX YOUR POLITICAL MUSCLE. DON'T BACK DOWN TO THE OBAMAPHILE HYPOCRITS. THEY HAVE BEEN WHINNING AND BULLYING THEIR WAY INTO WHAT THEY WANT FOR MONTHS NOW!!!!!!! IT'S TIME CLINTON SUPPORTERS STARTED FLEXING RIGHT BACK.

I have always wondered: If Hillary had been ahead of Barack in the primaries would this race had dragged on this long? Let's not forget that Florida and Michigan fully aware of the consequences held their primaries very early. Should they be rewarded for breaking party rules? Harvey should stick to what he is go at, financing films.

Hillary Clinton and her supporters are a mess. They are dividing this country. Hillary Clinton says white and hispanic will not vote for OBAMA but black will vote for her. She still have that slave mentality thinking white man still own black and black can't think for themselves. I am so ashame of the way she runs her campaign. She is a disgrace to this country.

Are you kidding me??? Is this guy another thug like the Clintons???? If you can't win fairly then by all means. Cheat!

Message to Hillary- YOU DID NOT WIN MICHIGAN. YOU WERE THE ONLY ONE ON THE TICKET. IT WAS YOU OR NOBODY. AND HOW DARE YOU LET YOUR THUGS BULLY OTHER PEOPLE IN YOUR PARTY. YOU ARE A DISGRACE TO WOMEN. ALL YOU DO IS LIE, WHINE AND CHEAT.

After all the strong armed tactics she should just be disqualified. This is a true representation of what will happen in the White House under her command. God help us all!

it's his money...he can donate it to whomever he pleases...get over it.

you are just as stupid as the hill-billys.

obama 08

And if you from FL and Michigan don't go to the pools in November if your delegates are not counted now then please just keep your mouths shut for the next 4 months because you will have lost all right to complain, criticize, or suggest anything to or about the government.

If Obama is so strong, then why not go for this ? Hillary has way too many supporters to back down. It needs to go to the end. Also, stories about the Obama supporters and their behavior are starting to surface. This is still democracy and 16,000,000 people will not be told to "go away."

Post this CNN. Lets see if you do.

I would like to know why Hillary's fans have had nothing to say on this issue? On every other blog they post comments but this one nothing. This says quite a bit about this issue when her supporters aren't touching it.

Everyone signed off on the rules, and the rules were known before dates were set. This was obviously done intentionally so the question shouldn't be can we get the votes counted but WHY WAS IT DONE IN THE FIRST PLACE????

Since my last comment is still hung in moderation.......summary:

It's this kind of stuff that divides the party. Are Clinton supporters going to see this as an example of how they need to act in order to unite the party? Very poor judgement Weinstein. This effects the Dem Party as a whole since it was even considered a tactic.

Shame on you Harvey. Instead of trying to buy Hillary the nomination send her some of your money to pay off her campaign debts so she can bow out gracefully. It's time.

Then get out of our party.....the democratic party will not, and should not stand for this nonsense....I, for one, will contribute money just to make sure that this man has no voice....since the rules were not followed, just split the delegates fifty-fifty...PERIOD...any thing else would be UNFAIR to those of us who believe that rules govern our country and our party.

I think this is just Sad on so many levels. I hope it's true that Pelosi told Weinstein "Don't ever threaten me again". This is the kind of thing Obama is trying to change (and that the McCain of 2000 was as well before he turned into a carbon copy of George W. Bush this year). I think Obama has shown with his campaign that you don't need people like Harvey Weinstein to run an effective fund raising campaign and I have a feeling that democratic big wigs like Pelosi, Reid, and Dean understand this. Again, I think Weinstein needs to take a long look at himself and what he has done here and hopefully he will realize the error of his ways.

Plus, I think Clinton is thinking concession right now anyways. She'll continue till the end of the Primaries, but I think in the end she will step aside and throw her support to Obama. Politically, it will gain her a lot of credit with people she has upset in the last year and a half and if that support can bring Obama the election victory in 2008, she will have rebuilt a lot of those bridges she has burned during these campaigns. She's a Clinton and now that Penn is basically out of the picture, she will do the smart thing. She ran a tough race and my hope is we can all come together in the Fall around Obama.

Hillary's supporters are just like her. They use blackmails, tricks and gimmicks. They are shameless.

Birds of the same feather flock together.

If a re-vote will give those voters a legal vote, the sooner it is done,the better!

Boycott Miramax and Project Runway!

Who does he think he is? This is the United States of America. A democracy, where the people's voice is what matters. Harvey... It's time to move to Russia where the politicians are bought and sold.

THats soo disgusting and wrong....... its dispicable....... a true testament to the clinton campaign!

Now for Obama '08

So from the comments I have seen.......he is wrong for putting pressure with his money to have the votes count and that is wrong. People threatening to have riots and violence in the streets if Obama isn't the nominee is right? Oh and let me add.....everyone that doesn't want to vote for Obama is racist. Does that sum it up?

Wonderful!

I have started a campaign against Obama in Florida. I am pressing my relatives not to vote.

Screw Obama one vote at a time.

frank: Could you repost your comment in English? It would be much easier for people to understand you if your comment made at least some level of sense. I'm guessing a Clinton supporter? White, uneducated, and clueless?

Dont worry MI. and FL. your delegate will be seated accordingly, but if you think they are going to simply count the way they were original casted then you are mistaken. No way is Hillary going to get all those delegates with her deceptive azzz!!
out of about 6 or 7 other candidates that agreed to the rules, how come she was the only one on the Mich. ballot, this fact speaks volumes of her intergrity and honesty, she did a low ball sneak move and put her name on that ballot, not surprised though, can't expect the Clintons to play by the rules, look at what she and her coherts are trying now...

Oh Oh, Hillary got heckled yesterday in WV when she tried to continue the fake gas tax crap again, WV can see right thru the pandering just like IN. and NC.and at the Washington Fund Raiser she got heckled by someone with a banner saying "Obliterate Iran- apologize"....This woman is dangerous, PERIOD>

Has it really come down to making threats? Shame on you Weinstein!

Who told this guy that America is for sale?
Send your money to support hungry kids around the world if you don't have any better use for it.

The moderators are Obama supporters and you are violating my rights to be heard. Everytime I post pro-Clintion comments without any swear words and well written you do not post my comments and yet you post all this pro-obama crap. You wimps have no spine what-so-ever and are exactly why this country will go down the tubes if Obama is elected.

So from the comments I have seen.......he is wrong for putting pressure with his money to have the votes count and that is wrong. People threatening to have riots and violence in the streets if Obama isn't the nominee is right? Oh and let me add.....everyone that doesn't want to vote for Obama is racist. Does that sum it up?

Near extortion.

Do not be fooled-there is no difference between the Democrats and the Republicans. The news media controls America. People losing their jobs, homes, lives and money. The media is focusing on race. Unless white Americians have a secret gas pump code, they pay the same $3.99 for gas I am paying.

I think this is just Sad on so many levels. I hope it's true that Pelosi told Weinstein "Don't ever threaten me again". This is the kind of thing Obama is trying to change (and that the McCain of 2000 was as well before he turned into a carbon copy of George W. Bush this year). I think Obama has shown with his campaign that you don't need people like Harvey Weinstein to run an effective fund raising campaign and I have a feeling that democratic big wigs like Pelosi, Reid, and Dean understand this.

So Harvey is trying to buy influence. Gee this sure sounds contrary to Hillarys populist theme. Thugs like these seem to have an unusual amount of control. Three cheers for Nancy Pelosi for standing up to him. It gives me comfort that the highest ranking democrat in our government has some of the same traits as Obama. We can take this country back.

She already showed everybody that pressure does'nt work for her. Re : the famous letter form the big democratic donors.

the clintons had their time .....it is now the american peoples time
get out before you hurt not only your rep but bills too

The Clinton's and some of their Campaign supporters truly represent the Old School Political Mafia. This is an Era that needs to be over. We are not in Iran , Iraq, Russia or China. This is supposed to be America, the Nation to be above the others. We shouldn't be allowing the purchase of Politicians Rep. or Dem. This is why the country is so messed up now, our Politician are being bought by contributions and not working for the better of the People.

To the Obama supporters: hold your breath, Obama will never make it to the white house. He's not electable. Period.

VERY SAD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

It looks like the same old song, if you have money, you have power. If Sen Obama was losing like Hillary is, the superdelegates would have already pushed him out.

They owe Bill & Hillary too much so they are allowing Hillary the opportunity to continue to be negative, weaken the Party Democrats chances to win.

It's plain to see they owe it to her to trash her own party and say in her speech there will be unity! We will have unity only if I win is what she is saying, if not I will make sure no democrat will win.

AT THIS POINT I LAY THE FULL BLAME ON THE REMAINING SUPERDELEGRATES WHO HAVE THE POWER TO END THIS BUT WILL WAIT UNTIL IT IS TOO LATE..........................SAD DAY IN AMERICA

FINALLY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! IT'S ABOUT TIME CLINTON SUPPORTERS STARTED FLEXING THEIR MUSCLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This makes me SICK!!! The votes in Florida and Michigan would have counted if they had FOLLOWED THE RULES!!!! What part of that is so hard for people to understand!!!

I will NEVER vote for a Clinton again!!!!!

Florida and Michigan should have followed the RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Florida and Michigan should have followed the RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Why should the Clinton's and their supporters be allowed to forego the RULES??!!??!! What makes them think they are so special!!!??! Its time for Hillary to sit down so the party can come together. This country can't afford to have McCain as president. We should be fighting the REPUBLICANS, not each other.

A primary reelection should be held in Florida and Michigan. Otherwise, it will be unfair to Hillary, since she has stronger support in large states that is the key for Democrats to win the general election. In fact, the liabilities Obama have had will make him hard to win McCain. Therefore, for the good of the Democrats, it is reasonable to hold a reelection in Florida and Michigan to see who is the real winner. I think anyone who really supports Democrats should support this reelection in Florida and Michigan.

If the people in Florida and Michigan are angry about what their states' governments did with their primaries, then they need to vote those people out of office when they're up for re-election. None of the candidates had anything to do with the decisions made by the state governments. You can't change the rules in the middle of the game just because you're losing Hillary.

I wonder if we as Americans can sue this guy for trying to extort the speaker of the house. This is something that need to be looked onto. seems like he's commiting a crime to me.

Enough is Enough!
I Have been a voting republican for almost 17 years now, and I can tell you me and my wife will be voting for Obama this november. The democrats need to rally behind the candidate that has shown true sability and grit, Sen. Barack has weathered everything that ms. clinton has throughn at him. It is my opinion that Hillary does not care about her political party or she would have run for president last term! It is only now that the public popularity of the republican party is at its lowest, she see's what we all see: "that the next President WILL be a democrat". She is in it for the prestige, the popularity and possibly pave the way for her media sheltered daughter to eventually become another "clinton" president so they all can say that they are the new "Royal" family on america. Further more, hillary acts like she is owed not only the nomination, but, that she is also owed the presidency and she will do EVERYTHING and ANYTHING TO GET IT EVEN IF SHE DESTROYS HER PARTY TO DO IT! Republicans Mit Romney and Huckleby had the decency to to graciously back out for the unity of their party, so that all rublicans could rally around the "nominee" and focus on the true compition that matters!

Well, if Hillary supporters believe every vote should count, then why ask the superdelgates to overturn the elected delegates which is the will of the people. This contridiction does not make sense and is truly undemocratic.

Wow! Harvey Weinstein speaks. Who is he? Hollywood, right? So, who cares?

wow. I can only imagine how bad the corruption is in the republican nomination process – they also have no shame, but are much better at keeping secrets.

Frank, your ignorance shows in your poor spelling, poor grammar, and poor attitude. Sen. Obama has beat. Let go of the racism and hate. You'll feel better. Also, before you try to send Sen. Obama back to where he belongs, remember that unless you are a Native American your people were immigrants. So, where should you go back to?

It's hypocritical. He's such a hypocrite, even in this one statement. It's all well and good if you say "The voices of the voters in Michigan and Florida should be heard", but you can't also say "The superdelegates should ignore the votes cast by the people."

So Pelosi wants superdelegates to pick the candidate that's leading the pledged delegate count. God, how unreasonable!

Wow, this belongs on the front page.

Another example of the "me"-centric universe in which Clinton and her supporters live.

Cut off the funding. Do whatever you want. She won't win and you are handing the presidency to McCain.

Congratulations Weinstein, you are obviously a closet Republican.

Another Clinton attempt to cheat or bend/break the rules.

But what are rules to the Clintons? Marriage vows are not sacred, lying under oath is not sacred, cattle futures, land deals...

For them it has always been win by any means.

Disgusting! People with money who then want power…. all the more reason to vote for Obama.

Pelosi should tell him to take his funds & stick 'em! With Obama running, the power is in the hands of the American people.

IT IS TOO BAD YOU DID NOT PRESSURE NANCY PELOSI TO LEAVE OFFICE...

DO NOT FORGET TO TELL MRS. PELOSI, THAT GARLIC NOSE, THAT OVER 90% OF AFRICAN-AMERICANS ARE FOR BARACK AND
OVER 60% OF WHITE AMERICANS ARE FOR CLINTON PLUS ABOUT 75% OF LATINOS ARE FOR CLINTONS AND 69% OF ASIANS ARE FOR CLINTON....

I hope that the DNC will stand up to this JERK and show him that his money can't buy them!!!!!!!! Another "cry baby" who can't accept defeat.

GO OBAMA

I am beyond disgusted!!! How dare he try and buy this election!!!
This is how Bush stole the election...VERY PATHETIC!!!
You go Obama. You need to step up and go after these crooks!!

It is worth noting that, under McCain Feingold, the total someone can give the DCCC and Congressional canidates combined is less than $100,000 every two years. That is a lot of money to me, but not to a prolific fundraiser like Pelosi. Weinstien reminds me of Dr. Evil demanding $1 million dollars. But in this case, his threat carries even less weight. What a joke.

Just make movies, Harvey.

No worry- the check Clinton would have written for this would have bounced anyway.

Great, now it's blackmail by a friend.

Perhaps this is something that Hillary needs to denounce and repudiate.

Harvey,

You are wasting your time and money, I thought you were a better business man than that. YOUR candidate will NOT win. She is unelectable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Clintons are good at making excuses and doing wrong things. This is a racist way to get rid of OBAMA, who has played fair and square. Has not really attacked Hillary on a lot of her bad dealings in the past. Lets look at whitewater and others as well look at the lies she has spoken in the primaries.
Hillary with this being the last straw you have eliminated yourself from the VP position. OBAMA please choose EDWARDS he is a better person than Hillary Clinton.

Well here comes the strong arm theory since the kitchen sink didn't work so well. If Hillary couldn't buy the American vote for $30 does this guy think he can buy the Super Delegates and the Democratic Party's vote?

Stand firm Nancy like you did earlier this year. You know we are behind you on this AND we know it is going to get very ugly. That's why Super Delegates are afraid to speak out. Can you imagine what a strangle hold she would have on this country if she actually got into office?

America IS NOT FOR SALE Hillary.

the people did vote for who they wanted, their were other local candidates on the FL. ballot and a new tax law or something. However a majority of people in Mich. and FL. did not vote because they KNEW their votes would not count. Grown ups please act like grown-ups and play by the rules what's so hard about that? When she was inevitable and agreed to Mich. and FL. not be seated you didn't hear a word about those two states and believe me Hillary don't give a hoot about Fl. and Mi. until she needed them.

Is that how American Politics works??? I am amazed !! ...

"People should vote for whom they want"

Get a grip on reality! This fat ugly rich white guy is not funding anything he is small time loser! The people and other respectful well off people have been supporting this party for many years! He should be put on trial for even suggesting such a thing! I hope Sen Pelosi smashes him like a bug! She should hold a press conference and invite him to join the GOP if he does not like democracy or he wants to control things through fear! Horrible and the only people you see posting in her supporting him are very overtly racist saying as much in there comments we all knew race would play a role in this but it will not be a major role.

Go Obama 08 Yes We Can

The votes in Florida and Michigan need to be counted. We will lose these states if Obama is the nominee and if the votes are not counted. He has infuriated his supporters there for saying no to the revote and unless the delegates are seated they will go Republican in the fall. I am a life long Democrat and I will leave the party if this is not resolved.

Umm Frank – you need to learn to read and spell – seriously. That gibberish you posted made no sense what so ever. smh

IM SO DISSAPPOINTED!!!

this does not even make me angry, just sad....we are the party, of unity, peace, prosperity, and this is what the Clintons are bringing it down to?

I AM SAD!!!

Pathetic.

Hillary and her campaign have become sleaze balls!

So it is just fine for Obama to buy his candidacy through candy coated promises while fair voting can be called into question? Just what has Senator Obama done that makes people think he actually has any willingness to do anything other than act the way he has? I still am waiting for an answer on any issue you can go to the bank with but instead he spews out all this stuff in such a way he can't be held accountable for anything he says or claims to believe in. A typical lawyer.

THIS NO GOOD BASTARD HAS THE RIGHT TO TRY AND BUY VOTES. HE SHOULD BE PLACED UNDER INVESTIGATION BY THE DNC. HE PRETTY MUCH GOING AGAINST ALL U.S GOVERNMENT POLICY OF BRIBERY. WHATS NEXT YOU GONNA PAY AND PUT A HIT OUT ON SOMEONE.\

SAD DAY FO AMERICA

This is ridicules! This is typical of how Washington and the Clintons have worked in the past. Stiff-arming the people to get their way should not be allowed. Pelosi should be firm and tell him that, “the Democratic Party don’t need your money and we will follow the rules of the DNC!”

That's interesting, but she did change her tune yesterday.

I can see the comment section is over run by Obama nut heads and us Hillary supporters cant get our comments posted.

so I will try again…

Oh..I get it..Its OK for Obama to say African Americans are voting for him and will not vote for her, but Hillary cant say Whites are voting for her? WHAT???

Harvey is a joke. His obnoxious behavior is why Tarrantino movies no longer get nominated for oscars. Holliwood can't stand him and his bullying.

This could backfire on the DNC if Pelosi backs down to Harvey. Or it could be used as a catalyst to get the rest of Holliwood to contribute to drown Harvey out.

Do American's really want Hollywood dictating who the next president is going to be? I can't believe what is going on. If Hillary were to steal the nomination the Republicans would be able to hold this over her head all the way to November.

NOTE TO HOLLYWOOD: THE WHITE HOUSE IS NOT FOR SALE!!!!

Good for him!There are people in the DNC who can't stand the thought of a woman president and have been pushing hard for her to quit. It's about time someone pushed back! I have NEVER in 45 years donated to a candidate until now and I have donated 4 times to Hillary. When I get my stimulus checkm I will donate more because there is NOTHING in this world more important than putting someone in the white House who can help us little people. If she is railroaded out of this thing, then i will switch to republican and support them financially as well because i believe with all of my heart that Obam is destroying this party and will destroy this country if allowed anywhere near our oval office. Of course this won;t get posted because CNN hates Hillary supporters but America neeeds to open her eyes!

On FL & MI…..yes the delegates will be included but RULES are RULES. Both sides agreed to the rules BEFOREHAND. Right? So the only fair way is to split the delegates 50-50.

And whatever Hillary says about disenfranchising the voters as the real reason she is picking on this is a joke. We all know this only has to do with her trying to win. Do I have any proof? YES! Hillary has said on more than one occasion that its ok to ask the PLEDGED Delegates to switch to her side. So there goes this disenfranchising the voters theory. Its just more SNIPER FIRE headed your way by Hillary.

STRONG ARMING the Speaker of the House.....

how REPUBLICAN....

THE TACTICS JUST PLAIN STINK !

GET THE HELL OVER IT... HILLARY SIGNED A DOCUMENT...

YOU BEST BELIEVE, IT THE ROLES WERE REVERSED SHE WOULD BE SCREAMING BLOODY MURDER ABOUT CHANGING THE RULES, MOVING GOALSPOSTS, and EVER-EVOLVING MATH !

Maybe we should boycott his movies...

Excuse me, but his threat is considered political terrorism, I say jail him under the home security act.

FRANK- Your comments exemplify everything that is wrong with America.
You are an ignorant racist fool and THANKFULLY part of a breed or should I say inbreed that is rapidly going extinct but just not fast enough.
Why don't you try for your G.E.D and then maybe some community college it would sure help your grammar and spelling.

I wonder who put this guy up to pressuring Pelosi? (HRC tactics),

This guy should not be allowed any where near Washington. These are exactly the kind of people Obama wants to take out of the equation. I hope MoveOn.org's support can continue to replace these people. Mr. Weinstein and other Clinton financiers, you don't own this country, we do! The American people.

You guys have no idea how people in Michigan and Florida are feeling. We want our voices to be heard just like the rest of the 48-states. Our American flag has 50 stars, NOT 48, I hope the Obama campaign would finally agree with the Re-vote proposal presented previously by both the DNC and the Clinton campaign. And remember, it was Obama's choice to take his name off the ballot in Michigan to appease Iowa so he could win Iowa.

Good for us Harvey, don't let Pelosi nor Feinstein jump ship.

California voted for Hillary.

What do you suppose Teddy Kennedy, John Kerry, Tom Daschle, Bill Richardson, etc. have been up to lately? How many votes do you think their pressure has won for Obama? This is more hypocritical, prejudiced crap. You Obama supporters are sick, and you make me sick.

Another elitist liberal trying to wield power through their checkbook.

tsk tsk

That is POWER POWER POWER. but won't work I hope..

OH LOOK another uneducated white voter for hillary.

frank May 8th, 2008 12:19 pm ET

why this barack hossein osama doesn't get out this race and lets Hillary Clinton handles the whole thing thru novmber, I am sick and tired of this non sense guy with his conterversial pastor who has no recpect and sympathy for american people this is America for god sake not Africa and please call yourself black american not afro americal or else get the hell out of here and go back to where you belong……………….

Harvey sounds like a special interest who thinks he has purchased himself a Congress. Part of Washington as usual that needs to go.

You guys have no idea how people in Michigan and Florida are feeling. We want our voices to be heard just like the rest of the 48-states. Our American flag has 50 stars, NOT 48, I hope the Obama campaign would agree with the Re-vote proposal presented previously by both the DNC and the Clinton campaign. What's Obama afraid of? We just cannot disrefranchise millions in these two states. And remember, it was Obama's choice to take his name off the ballot in Michigan to appease Iowa so he could win Iowa.

Last time I checked...OBAMA has raised more money from the PEOPLE the this selfish IDIOT has....KEEP YOUR MONEY.

It is completey un fare not to count delegates from Florida & Michigan. Florida could not hold an elction on time due to the Republicans. There are 50 states in this country. We all pay taxes, we all should be counted. On the Novemeber election we need a democratic Nomineee to beat Mc'cain. We will not go to vote on Novemeber if the delegates from Florida & Michigan are not counted now.

Bishal, Irene, Christine, Dawn, Kyle, Lynn, Dale, Sam, Corey, Mommy Norma, Rene, Anthony, Zackarre & Adam from Florida

Another reason why America hates Washington...

Both candidates support leaving FL and MI out because of rules violations, and now that Billary DESPIRATELY NEEDS votes to make her campaign have a legitimate shot at getting to the General election, they are all the sudden for it.
where I come from, if you break a rule, you pay for it. They broke the rules, they SHOULD pay for it.

Oh please! How many Obama supporters would vote for McCain if Clinton were the nominee? How many people will stop donating if CLinton were the nominee? It's the SAME THING!

What a shame. No wonder Nancy Pelosi's tone has changed and she wants the voting process to continue even though it is all over now for Clinton.

Your comment is awaiting moderation

Shame on you Harvey Weinstein

This is old news. A group of her supporters also agreed to pay for the revote in Michigan. What is surprising is the Clinton campaign didn't see anything ethically wrong with having her big money supporters finance revotes in Florida and Michigan.

Shame on Nancy Pelosi, thought she had a spine, she should resign if it is true and proven. Her position did abruptly change yesterday....hmmmm

Everyone email her!

Your comment is awaiting moderation.

"Shame on you Harvey Weinstein"

hey harvey use the money to finance her exit strategy
everything that comes out of her mouth now is one lie after another
like she had the power to supend the gas tax
she's not the president now and it looks like she wont be
i guess slick willy lied to her again
in every state she is for something differant what ever people want to here she says it
thats not change thats the same old washington crap
any way she new what the rules were and now she can't face the facts that more people voted against her then for her
next she will want to count american idol votes too
pack it in hill

Weinstein looks like Hill's Jeremiah Wright.

These are Hillary's wild cards. If the votes are counted and delegates are seated as is(which is illegal) will be the greatest upset in democratic history. she says the people voted. Right! and monkeys come flying out of my butt!!! That was not a vote, but a sneaky hillary experiment to see what it would look like if she had ZERO competition. and she still only got 55% of the vote.

With CNN being so pro Clinton, I am surprised that they even ran this story. I guess it ran somewhere else first so it was old news now.

this is all political shennanigans to continue in the same old washington bull, this country is on it's way to becoming a third world country, dominated and ruled by the same old politicians, selling themselves like prostitutes, Italy here i come. go ahead Tonia Harding break his legs!! none of them in washington are honest! they are a bunch of crooks no better than nixon, and let me not even mention the clinton machine and their scams. otherwise they will obliterate me. most i mention white water and the people missing in the case, the colombians, clinton vs. paul ....cry wolf hillary, michigan and florida did not count, but only for you!

a lot of us was wondering what hillary was up to next. now we know
if this atempted bribery is not denounced by hillary. we the people
ought to be screaming bloody muder. and wondering whay the news media is not reporting this. how low can hillary go

This is exactly what I have been saying all along. The Clinton's will do whatever it takes to be back in the White House, even buying an election. How very sad but more importantly, how scary.
We came so close to her winning the Nomination and I know for a fact that if she had won, there would have been no stopping her and Bill and all their corrupt behavior.
Even now she won't bow out gracefully. Why? Well, she needs to have her supporters keep sending her their hard earned money so she can pay herself back the $11.4 million she loaned her campaign. I also am willing to bet she is in far more debt than this amount so she needs your money folks. Go ahead, sent it to her so she and Bill can keep their millions in the bank.

Save your $$$ Harvey, the DNC does not need your donation, stick to making second rate movies where you belong. Obama has $40M in the bank, the people of America will make up the difference that you are threatening to withhold. Your out of the loop Harvey, just a regular citizen now like the rest of us..lol

Buying an election Nice.

Gee, I wonder if the Democratic Party can possibly survive without this loser's contributions. Let's see now. Barack Obama has raised about $150 million from everyday people. When will people like Harvey Weinstein realize that he's no longer relevant. Shouldn't he focus on trying to put out great movies, instead of another "Fatal Attraction" film starring Hillary Clinton.

This is exactly the case Senator Obama is making – the old washington politics in action – and why naational priorities are not being met, for example, education, national security, defense, energy, economic, infrastructure, etc.

So much Fraud and corruption even in the US which is supposed to be a developed nation. For power, people go to any extent. Clintons have so much connection in the white house that they can completely overturn the people's decision to meet their personal agenda which is POWER POWER POWER.

Just because, she is behind Obama in delegates, she wants to change the rules. Why should rules be changed for her? because she is a Clinton.

Could Obama have got the rules changed if he were running behind Clinton in delegates?

Another Clinton thug. Sigh.

An interesting concept. Harvey is so loaded that he thinks he can buy the nomination for Hilary, while Hillary is having to loan her own campaign $11.4 million (which of course rounds up to $20 milion in Hillary dollars....).

Is there a reason that educated whites are supporting Obama?

Does not bother any of you Obama supporters that peoples votes will be taken away from them. Mr. Weinstein has every right to expect the democratic party to have everyones votes count expecially since he is funding the party. He is not buying anything. The right to have ones vote count the last time I looked is FREE – THIS IS AMERICA REMEMBER. If the shoe were on the other foot all of you would be crying racist. You are hyprocriates. Good for Mr. Weinstein to expect fairness in this Country.

people wil do anything thing to win ......since Hillary can't fairly beat Obama she has to resort to racial tactis to get support from people.......that 's a person who doesn't give a good hoot about the democratic party ./........it's over Hill .

What a frickin joke. Now we now why our country is going down the toilet. Pelosi needs to go along with Hill.

If this is true, all I have to say for you Hillary and her supporters is this is a new low. I never thought you could go lower but you have officially found yourself in league with the most corrupt politicians of our time. The sad thing is that I once had respect for you and would have voted for you still if you somehow stole the nomination from Obama. Now, if you go down that road, I will be another of the millions of Obama supporters who will not vote for you.

My understanding is that even if the votes from Florida & Michigan are counted as is, it won't help Clinton. Pelosi should just tell the man NO! and tell Billary to drop out of the race. It's over. Try again in 4 years.

This is what politics is all about. The people with the money are the ones actually making the decisions. That is why the system needs to be change. Do not think for a moment that Hillary or anyone else that has been in politcs for any significant time will take the high road. They "owe" too many people/corporations and they will not write policies that will harm them.

What a disgrace!!!!

Clinton's GOONIES are out doing her dirty WORK and she's stands by and plays the innocent victim over and over.

This just proves how low Sen. Clinton's will stoop. She has so much dirty on her hands and yet she turns a deaf ear and blind eyes to it all. How convenient.

This is why the Clintons are turning people off. When your losing and you start pulling these types of political tactics, it just makes Sen. Obama's case for him when it comes to the "SAME OLD AND TIRED WASHINGTON POLITICS". The Clintons just DON'T GET IT, Americans are SICK of these games and want to end the Clinton era of the Washington "status quo".

Sen. Clinton continues to ignore the voices of the people across this country. She refuses to listen to top economists when it came to her "tax holiday", even when her own staffers say it's just a "political gimmick, they know it will never work" AND she refuses to face the fact that she's LOST despite the reality of the numbers. This is EXACTLY the same Republican behavior the our current President exhibits!! Sen. Clinton has been campaigning more like a Republican than a Democrat. She claimed just this morning that "if the Democratic Party followed the rules of the Republican Party she would have won indiana by a bigger margin! What!! Is she crazy?

We are NOT the Republican Party WE ARE THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY!!! She needs to start remembering which PARTY she's representing. Maybe she's confused on which party she is running under. When she made the statement that Sen. John McCain would make a great VP, that just blew my mind! To even utter such a suggestion is like shooting yourself in the foot yet again!

The Clinton era is quickly coming to an END. They KNOW it, They've KNOWN it for some time AND They have been told this fact by the people that surround them. I mean come on, the look on both Bill and Chelsea's face when she was talking in Indiana was ALL TO CLEAR. They know the writing is on the wall. She's just in TOO MUCH DEBT to get out NOW. She can't afford to get out, that's the only reason she's begging for money and loaning rather than donating her own money to her campaign. If she were honestly and truly "committed" to her campaign, she would have DONATED the $11.4 million rather than LOAN it to her campaign. Sen. Clinton is going to bill all her supporters for her loans. Where else is the money going to come from? The DNC isn't going to pay her LOANS!!

Political scum. This is the type of behavior and corruption you can expect to run rampant, (or continue to run rampant I should say) if Hillary the cackling hag is able to buy this nomination.

Good idea, Harvey, but guess what! No one cares about you and your big donor monies.

Barack Obama has inspired enough new small donors to cover your loss. Go take a hike.

"buy Clinton more time" The operative word here is "buy." He is trying to "buy" the White House for Hillary. I am so sick of the corruption in this country. Big Money and Corporate Interests rule here in the Corporate States of America.

trust the clintonz who will do anything to win now they are using their surrogates and donors to blackmail and threaten the speaker SHAME ON U HILLARY

If you think you have seen a demonstration before...

Go ahead and try to pull this......

you will have the biggest march in history..........

all Americans will come together and stand up to Washington, there is no way we will stand for this, you do NOT buy an election.....

The Clintons and their supporters are theives

I can guarantee there will be loads on Hillary supporters commenting on here condoning this. This is simply unacceptable. They said that they are working on a way to seat the delegates but you have people threatening the DNC. Why would anyone think this is acceptable? Why?

Not that it makes a difference...
But most of us here in the EU find this election hilarious!!

You have Obama, who is winning the nomination FAIRLY, but isnt being recognised as the winner!!

And Clinton, becoming more desperate everyday, who has somehow managed to convince herself that she has a chance of wining!
Thing is... A lot of you actually BELIEVE her!! =]

It sure does make good T.V.

Go for it Pelosi! Hillary is worth it. She should get the votes which has earned.

Why do people think Hillary will blow Obama out in Michigan? Demographically it fits Obama and even when she was the only person on the ballot in February, Hillary only got 55% of the vote. I agree we should try to find a way to count the voices of people in both Florida and Michigan but I fail to see it being a huge difference maker in the overall results.

How much more crooked can the Clinton machine be? Trying to force the superdelegates to steal the election is just wrong and borderline criminal. I am now afriad of what a Clinton presidency would be. this is why I am very glad Obama leads in all catagories and will be our next President.

And there are still some out there that wonder why so many people have joined Barack's campaign to change the way politics are conducted?! He is trying to extort the Speaker of theHouse – how freking bold and crazy is this? This is not one of your hollywood movies that you can direct as you see fit! Lets see if Hillary or her campaign denounces this sleazy manipulation of our political system.

This is sickening....Thank God that Nancy Pelosy did not cave in.
I cannot help but think if the shoe was on the other foot Senator Clinton would be stating "rules are rules and have to be followed"
If this "gentleman" is her top supporter and she is having to pay millions of dollars to her campaign that doesn't say too much for this man!! Let him take his money. Real demograts and not those with agendas will see rules are for a reason and Senator Clinton and Senator Obama both agreed to these rules before this race ever started they should be enforced.
There are so many new people who joined the Democratic party if they see plays like this and crooked offers being accepted we can say good bye to them.

Truly Truly disturbing. Harvey Weinstein is ridiculous.
He spent the entire 1990's basically buying Oscars (with Disney's $$) for the crap movies Miramax was pumping out and now he is going to try and buy himself a president. What a douche bag.

This is exactly what Obama is talking about–OLD BACK ROOM POLITICS. What makes Hillary so sure she will win both states? This is the same egotistic attitude that has her in the mess she's in now. This is absolutely pathetic and I'm sure she is ready to embrace anyone who will "Buy and Steal" this election for her! KEEP YOUR MONEY, LOSER!!

Figures, seriously is anyone surprised by Clinton and her minions! And this is what "white" Americans want....I don't think so!

wow, what's next, Harvey? If you don't stop people from downloading stuff off the internet, I'll stop giving you money. And if you don't start giving movie studios more tax breaks, I'm not going to give you money. This is the exact opposite of lobbyists giving money to congress to get their way, he's withholding money instead. This is, of course, his business if he wants to stop contributing to the party, to make this kind of threat sounds like bullying to me. I hope Pelosi doesn't give in to his threats. If she does, this just enforces my belief that Washington can be bought and exactly why we need change.

We all know the history of the Clintons when people try to stand in their way, i.e. Vince Foster. But this time, no one is buying the scare tactics. That is why she is trying to stay in as long as she can.

THIS IS SO SAD IF ITs TRUE!! Now I see why Nancy P. has changed her position. SAD DAY IN AMERICA

why this barack hossein osama doesn't get out this race and lets Hillary Clinton handles the whole thing thru novmber, I am sick and tired of this non sense guy with his conterversial pastor who has no recpect and sympathy for american people this is America for god sake not Africa and please call yourself black american not afro americal or else get the hell out of here and go back to where you belong...................

here we go again! I am a Florida voter. I voted knowing that my vote would not count, because of the idiots in government of my State. Rules are Rules and Florida as well as Michigan did not follow them. It is not the party's fault! The blame would lay at the feet of those who decided to hold our primaries before the requested date. And Hillary should know better. She read the rules and signed off on them. Talk about a whiner. But we should known she would be one from the way she cried to get sympathy votes in NH. Shame on you Hillary. I used to love the Clintons, but little by little we are beginning to see their true colors.

These people are just treating I don't think they are going to leave the party. we need to start talking to all the Hillary surpporter and getting them on our side

Go Obama!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I would not be suprised..

Almost unbelievably this continues to get worse! I'm finally beginning to see that there isn't anything that the Clinton Camp won't try to get this primary to end in their favor. I was thinking and hoping that there was some form of ethics left within Billary somewhere; now I see that it's their way or the highway, and that they'll bulldoze through whatever and whomever they deem necessary to get what they feel they're entitled to. It's as if their previous threat to Pelosi earlier this year wasn't brash enough. Billary and their Camp make Chicago politics look upright. Scary, scary stuff.

Why don't "Keep your money Harvey" and others actually read the rules? A fair and timely vote could have been organized weeks ago, and the Party leadership knows that. Voters in Florida and Michigan, as well as Clinton supporters across the country would like to know why they haven't done so!

who the hell does this man think he is, is he trying to buy the vote with money he might be joking some one needs to tell this guy go to hell and put his money up his A*ss. Nancy is not going to fall for this crap.

This makes me sick to the stomach! This is what makes Obama look so much better. Washington politics is all about money, connections and white hall impudence. Controll and manipulation is all that the Washington politicians think of! What about the American people? Do they matter! This reaks of bad politics like those found in Zimbabwe! No better. Had this happened by the Obama camp, we would have had Fox news and CNN forking out blasphemous headlines...but it is a Clinton...they never lose! What a shame !

This stinks to high heaven! Threats of withholding money unless the DNC and Pelosi change the democratic rules to put Clinton in the White is the typical approach of well funded elitists who put their interests ahead of all the American people who aren't like them, RICH.

Don't sell us out Ms. Pelosi!!!

I'm not sure what to call this, but I find it highly improper when a supporter attempts to buy off a politician to changer her position.

Weinstein and the others should be ashamed of themselves.

Good for Pelosi for standing up for herself. I hope Clinton has the courage to contact these supporters and demand they stop their improper behavior.

This goes to show how weak the DNC heads are money is not all Hill have already sold her soul and Pelosi, no wonder people are relunctant for a woman president they are too week, they bow to pressure. If Clinton and her wealthy cronies special interest think for a second that they can use there money to get this nomination to go there way they have another guess coming.

Whatever you are destined for you will have to get and Barak was destined to be president. Put that in your pike and smoke it.

Obama 08-12.

Set of theives you all are.

I will not vote for a Democrat if the report is true. Hollywood buying the access with their filthy money will be a great story for the Dems.

I call for all Democrat supporters to voice our distain on this practice. Write your letters to blogs, to media, and to Pelosi, tell them we will not vote for a Dem if Pelosi indeed cave to the pressure.

Ok, now I am really going to puke.
So Hillary has her "people" making threats?
MI and FL BROKE THE RULES that Hillary supported in the beginning! They are paying the consequences for breaking those rules!
Now that she is desperate for votes, she swings back on her words just so she can benefit. How lame and shameful! No self-respect

So what did Hillbilly promise him to make veiled threats to public officials? The Clinton's scare me.

another example of "Old Washington backroom deals'" between the rich and famous – its disgusting and anti-democractic. Is it hard to see why Senator Obama is the best candidate??

SAD!!!!!!!

Terrible!

A Clinton supporter threatens the speaker to get what he wants...shows what kind of people Clinton has behind her.

Wow! Really Harvey? Extortion?

Shame on you Harvey Weinstein.

Lobby, Lobby, Lobbyist. Buying votes and going against the will of the American people.

This gets right to the heart of how corrupt the Clintons and their backers really are.

he is full of it another clinton arm strong hold
stick to your job nancy put him in his place

Just another example of how lobbyists think they can control our government! I understand Hillary's side of this issue, but she agreed to the rules too. I am just frustrated that she wants to change them now. You can not change the rules in the middle of the game. It is unfair.

Attempted EXTORTION...pure and simple.

Isn't this blackmail?

Thought that was against the law?

Harvey, why not give the money to Hillary to retire her debt and gracefully exit !!

Obama – candidate for 50 st... er... 48 states!!!

Yeah, ignore Mi and Fla. Yall democrats are so dang smart!!!!

Pelosi don't do it! We don't need the money of big time lobbyist and corporate big wigs!

Look at the Obama campaign! We can do it without all of their money!

Yes We Can. And We Are.
Obama 2008 and 2012

I think he is right on!!!!! If the American people had known all the information they know now, Obama would not even be ahead.
No state should not be able to have their votes count, no matter what.
Is Pelosi jealous of Clinton or something, does she want to be President. Typical women jealous of women stuff if you ask me.

Why should Obama be denied what he has earned fairly, just because Clinton and her supporters feel that she is entitled to be president, because she is riding off the coat tails of her husband. Why didn't Hillary protest or even file a law suit against the DNC a year and half ago before signing that form stating that the votes and delegates would not count or be seated at the convention, this question should be answered and explained by Hillary to her supporters, why she signed and sit by and allowed it and never spoke up before for those voters and delegates, until now only because she needs those delegates in order to try to compete with Obama now. How come when she was in the leader spot those votes & delegates didn't matter but , now they are so deserving of being heard. She says in front of cameras that she will support the Dem candidate who wins but that only apply if shes the winner!!!!!!!!

grrrrrr.

Way to stand up to the bullies Pelosi. The American people are behind you.

OBAMA 08

The democratic party get more democratic. Think about cuba communism while you think about someone forcing the speaker of the house.

More dirty tricks from the Hillary camp. Question: If she cared so much about the party and truly wanted the best for the country, wouldn't the best be for her to concede at this point. The democratics needs to start campagning for the general election. What's going on? Please stop the nonsense and let's see Obama to the white house.

Let him cut them off .... its about time big money quit having these kind of influences..... time for public broadcasting (debates) and public campaign funds to cover it all. Get rid of these "vote buyers".

We don't care that Obama is Black, but we care very much that he is Green!.....We need her experience to get us out of the mess Bush has made. We'll write her in if need be, like many others will.

Before you threaten to vote Republican, Democrats, there is another way! Vote third party, and before you say it's a wasted vote remember that the Republicans started out as a third party.

Once again, the Clinton campaign is trying to pull another shrewed act...
Just another example of what normally goes on the Washington....More of the same old politics!!!

We need the man of change!!!....Obama 08!!!

This is becoming more and more corupt. Sounds just like a Clinton campaign not to mention Presidency.

Who needs him?

Every one else is doing the same. Even I said I wouldn't support the party if Hillary gets the nod.

Go figure... the rich wanting to keep the rich in power? If she bends, she sould resign for having no backbone. And he should be banned for political parties! If he is doing this now, what has he done to "buy" what he wanted in the past and will "buy" in the future. What happened to, by the people for the people? Go to hel...

Post my first comments CNN, they are NOT outrageous, they are the truth.

The Clintons will do anything to get what they want. Have they no shame? Of course not, they have sniper fire.

Ahhh...now this underhanded and duplicitous excuse-for-a-producer wants to use blackmail so that Hillary can will at all costs. This person should be condemned by all proud Democrats!

BLACKMAIL AND EXTORTION. THE CLINTON CAMP WILL STOP AT NOTHING IN ORDER TO STEAL THE NOMINEE. THIS IS A DANGEROUS PRACTICE, AS THE ORDINARY AMERICAN CITIZEN IS BEING SCREWED BY THE MONEY BAGS. SOMEONE SHOULD TELL WEINSTEIN TO TAKE A HIKE WITH HIS FILTHY MONEY.

Billionaires are for Billary, and Obama is called an elitist!

This does not surprise me. He is a skunk. This is what they mean when they say Money buys influence.
Walt Reed

Threatening to withhold contributions sounds like the old politics of arm-twisting. Some things apparently never change. What is different is hearing about it close to the time when it actually occurred (or is alleged to have occurred).

Regardless of what many posters may think of CNN (and no, I did not get a request from CNN to post this), there is a genuine public service to informing us of these kinds of backroom dealings. We need to know, because it tells us more about the kind of potential administration we might be dealing with, were the candidate in question to be nominated and elected.

This is the kind of story we need more of, because it tells more about ethics than just reporting the race for superdelegates. There is something sophomoric about focusing on these individuals who can do whatever they want to do, when they want to do it, so far as casiting a vote goes, up to the time they cast their ballots on the floor of the Democratic National Convention in Denver late in August.

Thank you, CNN!

These Clinton supporters are getting selfish and delusional. And Democratic office holders are getting angry, because donors have to keep giving to the Clinton and Obama campaigns, and they can't raise any money.

It's time to be positive and accept the inevitable. Support Obama, the Democratic nominee, and see what role Hillary Clinton might have in an Obama administration. VP? Cabinet post? Let them work it out and move on to challenging John McCain, who would be a disaster for the country.

If the supers do their job, threats like this will be a mute point. For the good of the party and this country, it's time the superdelegates removed the fence polls from their backsides and do what they were chosen to do – make a decision. They can put an end to this, but fearing repercussions, they won't do that. I think they need to look at the fact that their fear of making a decision brings their re-electability into question. Who wants a politician that can’t make a decision even with most of the facts already in and a clear choice to be made? If they can't take a little criticism for their choices, then they should not be in politics.

I think Harvey Weinstein should be thrown in jail for what is effectively an attempted bribe.

Typical. Exactly why the Clintons get no sympathy from me. What a bunch of losers!

Huh, you mean politicians are influenced by money? Who knew?! Shocking that it's a Clinton supporter. Walk away Nancy – look at the money Obama raised online from small supporters...the money appears to be there, don't get bullied.

I think Sources should keep innuendo to yourself. I agree with Pelosi, what harm can it do to Obama if Obama is winning. He should be very happy to have the fight go on. If he still wins, he is the better candidate, if he loses, he should'nt have been there in the first place. and the Democratic Party will have the strongest candidate.

Obama supporter

The BULLYING, BLACKMAILING and THREATENING method – the next phase in the Clinton election tactic.

Mr. Weinstein should remember that a great many of those who patronize his films are the very folks who support Obama's candidacy. If he wants to create a backlash against him by threatening the Speaker in this manner, then by all means continue to cary water for Sen. Clinton's campaign. I think it is the feigned altruism over voter disenfranchisement that is the most bothersome component of the Clinton argument to seat the Florida and Michigan delegates. Where was her fervor when the decision was being made and she was agreeing to exclude those states from her campaign. Incredible!

Let's see.......can't win the popular vote, can't win enough delegates, can't win enough of the states, can't win the caucuses, so that leaves the best chance at wining is.......EXTORTION!

It's so sad how these special interests have the parties by the balls, Obama can change the face of politics, he's raised so much that these money threats are falling on deaf ears, thank god. Once in a life time chance present, I truly hope Mr. Obama wins.

Today's Meyer Lansky?

By hook or by crook she will be the President!

Integrity is what I want in my President.

I imagine threatening Nancy Pelosi is not the brightest idea. And she told him off like she should have.

Why is this news? Of course the supporters of any candidate will press to have their candidate get whatever support they can. Of course they will use every thing in their power for their candidate. Let me guess the Obama supporters will cry foul and the Hillary supporters will say that she SHOULD win because they trust her more and Obama is a Terrible person. Sheesh folks get over yourselves.

get out of here old man, there is no revote partner

It is going to get ugly out there. Like McCain said it's difficult to watch the Democratic race now. "My heart goes out to them."

McCain / Romney 08!

GOOD FOR HIM! SOMEONE NEEDS TO CHALLENGE PELOSI! SHE'S THE WORST OF THE WORST. FURTHER, IT'S NOT UP TO HER WHETHER OBAMA AND CLINTON END UP ON THE SAME TICKET. WHO DOES SHE THINK SHE IS? IN ADDITION, IT MUST BE UNCONSTITUTIONAL FOR THE DEMOCRATS TO DISALLOW ANY STATE VOTES DURING A MAJOR PRIMARY FOR A PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION. IT'S ALL STUPID. THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY IS SO SCREWED UP; IT'S PITIFUL THAT ADULTS MAKE SUCH RIDICULOUS AND STUPID DECISIONS AND RULES! THEY ALL ACT LIKE THEY'RE IN HIGH SCHOOL.

Big money no longer rules the Dem party. It's over a million small donors like me that dominate now.

YES WE CAN.
Obama..08

oh yea. A primary bankrolled by super wealthy Clinton supporters doesnt sound legit to me.

Wow, this is incredible. How corrupt.

No one should pressure Hillary to quit. Every vote counts. FLA and MI should count. When every state has finished voting , then is over. It's the way democracy works. The party is divided and calling for Hillary to quit, is not helping. If they do that to Obama , there would be demonstration sagainst it. and calling racism. Let's be fair and balance. We are hurting the party.

and just who is harvey weinstein...?
he can take is money....
...this proves same that money does all the talking in this election and any election.
I'm nauseated by this whole process...enough not to vote for any one come November

And he can buy Hillary's way to the White House by threatening Ms. Pelosi, that's shameful!

This is exactly why people like Obama as much as we do – because he is not part of the democrat elite or Washington insiders.

He will be the voice of the people – not the voice of insiders like Hillary is.

This is exactly what obama is talking about! Same old dirty politics. Trying to buy an election. Pelosi needs to have a spine. Have some principles and don't fall to this deal. I see now why Pelosi says the race must go on. Pelosi can be bought too. The Obama camp needs to watch their back because the rug is going to be jerked out from under their feet. Remember this is the Clintons......people have died that knew too much about them. Wake up people.....

Thats all they can do. Fear mongering, threaten..

CLINTONS CAN NEVER WIN FAIRLY!

After having lost with such a big difference, Obama is leading in every aspect except clinton imaginary lead. This clearly states she is selfish for the position. Superdelegates just let her go home ..

Mmm... extortion.

There's another "tion" word that this rings of...

DESPERATION.

Stop Crying Hillary Supporters, This race is over. You can't act like Bush just cause you all lost. Have some dignity and support Obama now, while there is a chance you all might look good to public ( normal people who are suffering everyday) once a gain.

It's kinda funny to see a lot of Hillary's supporters act like her!

This race is over! Maybe Harvey is doing this to save face!

Anyway – it's time for us to come together and get behind Obama!

It's time to heal and get ready to beat Mc Cain and his supporters!

Keep going Hillary! Yes, this race is over but the last primary is June 3, 2008 and every vote we get will be a blessing! While you are at it – turn your attention to Mc Cain!

Obama supporters – let's pull back our attacks from Hillary and Bill Clinton – we are still in the same party and we will need the Clintons and their supporters to beat Mc Cain!

See? This is the kind of backdoor politics that the Clintons thrive on. These are not the kind of people we want in the white house.

Can you say "special interests"?

Is this democracy?
We all know that Hillary can not win the nomination and now money is what is matter. Is Harvey Weinstein the person who decides who should win the Democratic nomination?
This is called self-destruction, the Republicans must be loving this...

you know, this sounds a bit like blackmail to me.

I hope Americans wake up and see what kind of person Clinton is. This is the type of people that are trying to put her in power, because obviously Clinton will be doing favors for him. Again, Clinton is trying to buy her way into the White House. She is revolting...I bet if America could vote again, it would be very different. I still don't know how a politician can lie over and over about something such as the sniper fire incident. If she can lie so freely about that, what else is she lying about? Obviously the tax break on gas is a load of it...But she doesn't want to listen to experts.

Please people wake up and let's end this already!

Boycott Weinstein...

Good for Speaker Pelosi standing her ground and principles on not letting Mr. Weinstein intimidate her with his demands. I cannot believe the arrogance of this person after reading the article.
Can we please just put the Michigan and Florida "re-vote" behind us because both Senator Clinton and O'Bama understood the rules the DNC made months ago and the both of them agreed to it. Of course now that Senator Clinton is not going to be the nominee and she has known this for months, she wants to change the rules. I admire Politicians like Speaker Pelosi who are not influenced by a person's "status" in this country.....

If this is true, I must be very sorry for the democratic party.

this is a good example of who's really in charge... Clinton, and her supporters are everything that America is not about.. and now her next to last trick is out right race card. Pelosi, more than ever must now prove herself to the American people... and vote her convictions, if it is Obama, or Clinton she should do it now. Weinstein, will lose when the Clinton machine meets its timely death, it is clear that he is a great part of their machine and must be destroyed.

Clinton superdelegates getting Obama's autograph says something! Why is this guy pulling this stunt. I think Pelosi needs to borrow one of Hillary's soo called jewels. Hillary=Mafia

It's expected, of Hllary's group and her contributors they are trying to pull out all of the stops...this is just palin exstortion, no matter how you spin it is what it is EXSTORTION....

When I read things like this, I feel that the Democratic nomination is "for sale". Either Hillary will buy the nomination for herself, with her millions now and "pay herself back " when she's the President or she'll have people like Weinsein buy it for her. This corruption in the Democratic Party will cause people like me, who have never voted Republican in the past, to actually vote Republican in the Fall if the will of the people is overturned by back room politics.

The Democrats should learn that the more they try to take Obama through the trenches the more they push me as a REPUBLICAN to Vote for A Democrat this year. I'm only 37 years Old and I WISH OBAMA was a REPUBLICAN. I'm Proud to call myself OBAMACAN;
Joh McCain is a TRUE REPULICAN but he is OLD. This is the time to turn the country to the NEW GENERATION and OBAMA represents ALL PEOPLE OF THE NEW GENERATION. PELOSI LET YOUR FAT CATS GO. YOu CAN FINANE your Party on The RULE OF LARGE NUMBERS THE WAY OBAMA HAS CONDUCTED HIS CAMPAIGN

Harvey – save your money. You'll want to donate it to the next president, Barack Obama.

With as much cash flow that Obama will have, I don't believe your contribution will have such an influence.

Other states broke the rules too but were not punished: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20080506104818AAkNz94&show=7

A lot of her supporters are willing to "finance" a revote, most notably Carville and Rendell. I wonder if her supporters are financing the results as well.

If Pelosi "embraces" this now she's no better than the rest of the dirty politicians out there. It's this kind of back room politics that convinces me even more that we need a change in Washington and that change is not going to come from Clinton.

This is scary stuff.
Rich people trying to buy the Speaker of the House of Representatives so a State vote counts?

If true, this is a scandal of greater magnitude that even Teapot Dome. We are not talking about money to a secretary of the interior for oil lands, this is about money to subvert the 3rd in line to the Presidency about counting State votes.

This is a HUGE SCANDAL. How dare someone even attempt this!

Harvey, keep your money! We don't need someone who thinks they can overcome all existing rules and all previous agreements by threatening the Speaker! Get lost!

Hillary previously agreed, just like everyone else, that the primaries in Florida and Michigan were not going to count.

Pelosi needs to show this guy the door.

This really sucks! Threats of withholding money unless the DNC and Pelosi change the democratic rules to favor Clinton is the typical approach of well funded lobbists who put their interests ahead of the American people.

Don't do it Pelosi!!!

America with his freedom... Who was tell me in America there is democracy ????????? Yep Democracy by Juifs

Typical of the Clinton platform...bully, bully, bully.

oh the irony. who is elite again?

I hate to say this. But the only Democrat who is capable of running a successful campaign without losing his moral principals is Obama.

Both DNC and Clintons have made too many wrong decisions, display questionable ethics, feed us with endless spins and blame everyone else but their weaknesses.

In all, they still continue to exhibit very poor management and leadership skills.

I am so disturbe by Pelosi frequent comments that Obama and Hillary ticket cannot work,what is wrong on that.?Those words promote division within the party

Pelosi has no inclination to be FAIR, she's more interested in PANDERING to Obama supporters

And judging from Pelosi's comments yesterday she has succumbed to this pressure, shame on you Pelosi. It is done, Michigan and Florida were simply beauty contests.

Yep. Typical Clinton tactics.

this is getting ugly...HRC again trying to buy her vote. Give up HRC! Florida and Michigan voting early way your way of stopping Obama from his winning streak. infact you were fine with not counting them earlier. EXPOSE that CNN!! Now that you are losing they all of a sudden matter? GIVE AMERICA A BREAK

Even if they get what they want, it won't help her. She's done.

sorry what I meant to say is that Barack can give money to the Democratic Party..this trick by Harvey isn't going to work but nice try though!!! NOT

I think Pelosi has changed her tone. I think she realizes that Obama cannot win the General Election with all the Combined information that links him to an extreme radical left.

Democrats like me will not vote for him based on that alone...Additionally, he has no credentials...Go Figure!!!

Democrats voting for Obama are going to be the Demise of the Party if they don't wake up

and who is he to overturn the popular voters of this great nation except a elitist with deep pockets who has economic interes in making sure Clinton wins..why..could it mean more money in his pocket surely not in the best interest of the nation.

nice. And they say Obama is an elitist. Clinton's backers are trying to bully her into presidency. That shows the character of Clinton's supporters. Figures.

Throw Pelosi, Ted Kennedy, Kerry, Richardson, Dean, Oprah and CNN to the hogs. They are all nothing but pig slop!!!

Yes I've seen this before, what did they call it?

Oh yes, EXTORTION!!!

it's funny how clinton supporters claim that it's obama's fault for this whole michigan and florida thing. he played by the rules and removed his name from the ballot in mi, and did not campaign in both states. hillary broke party rules and left her name on the ballot. it's easy to win when you're the only one on the ballot, and people voted for you because your husband was a president. you can't bully your own party to change the rules and i think pelosi was right for not taking your crap. if you stayed off the ballot in michigan and didn't threaten the DNC in the first place, there would have been a revote. it's too late in the game to let these states count when it would waste valuable time in the GE. split the delegates 50/50 and call it a day.

Ummmm.. I thought bribery and threats were illigal in America.?
I think perhaps I will boycot this man's movies....

Big Whippee Who Ha!! Barack Obama can give some of his money we pledged to him.. Harvey, SHUT UP AND GO AWAY!!! and please mind your own business...here we go again..a Clinton supporter now changing the rules..ain't that a laugh.talk about buying an election!!!!

Isn't that extortion? Why isn't this guy going to jail?

More Clintonian underhandedness

Are we supposed to want these people running our country? (bullying or buying their way without regard to what is right for America)

Way to go, if you cannot get people to vote for you, just buy the nomination....

Given that Obama has raised a) more money, from b) more sources that any Democrat in history....so what. Just another Clintonite clinging to the throne.

Sorry investor, I guess...

That's right Hillary. Show America how much integrity you have by using your ultra-rich elitist friends to strongarm and threaten elected officials. Let's turn America into the Soviet Union. How could someone not respect you? (sarcasm...lots of it. Boy, she's pathetic...)

If you cant beat them threaten them, right Hillary.

More blackmail from the Clinton supporters. Didn't they try this a few months ago? He's not being quite so veiled this time though...

Great! Now she has her wealthy bully supporters making threats to the Democrats if they don't support her in trying to "bamboozle" this election.

Now it seems a bit peculiar that Pelosi is backing down on her once direct statment of the superdelagates voting with the popular vote.

I guess there one thing that speaks louder than the voters. The sound of the Wealthy financial backers of our "elected" officials threatening to cut them off.

This stinks! This is why we need Obama...our goverment can not continue to be bullied and manipulated by the likes of this type of power hungry people.

This is despicable. I hope Nancy doesn't give in to pressure from the Clinton campaign and they're underhanded tactics.

Oh yes,

also she voted for the Bush tax cuts.

Good for him...it is about time someone used some of their clout!! Obama has had all the media clout for over a year.

Get them where it hurts...money!!

GO HILLARY!!

Look at that photo of this guy ... Is that Lex Luther ? One of Clinton's Mafia friends for sure ...

Keep you money, buddy, and take a hike !

Of all the nerve!!!!

So tell me what's the difference in George Bush stealing an election and you buying an election. If this happens the Dems just may as well fold up because their entire existence is done.

he must have lost his mind

Hillary voted for:

The war
The patrot act (twice)
Judge Robertson
Judge Alito
Irans army to be called a terrorist organization

If that is not a Republican I don't know what is.

You see this is why we support Obama. He plays by the rules and he is whipping that behind. Hillary support are just using old political influence $$$ to buy her more time. If the Whipping was reversed they would have already thrown Obama under the Bus and backed back over him again. The Rules are the Rules beside Hillary supported the rules in the beginning.

Hmmm.......bullying tactics....backroom threats....it is a great day for American democracy!

He should pull his contrbutions I have I am from Florida and will not Contribute unless our votes are counted

So they have turned to blackmail now.What is next ?Taking family members hostage?They are working on seating the Fla and Mich delegates but the Clinton campaign demand for it to be be unfairly and in a way that only benefits her.

Obama is the one who refused a re-vote. Obama wants to win at all cost to the party and the country..

Meanwhile, Bill Clinton promises he will hold his breath until the superdelegates choose his wife as the nominee.

That would explain the red face, at least...

your big bucks cannot overturn the will of the people.obama raised money in 5,20 25,50 from across the nation and build a strong empire,so you as an individual cannot overturn the people's choice

I say to everyone out there. Howard Dean and the DNC have cheated everyone of their votes who voted for Hillary. This is not some stupid football game. By not allowing Michigan and Florida to be counted and not allowing all Americans votes to be heard they have in effect robbed you of your chance to have Hillary elected. While I can understand punishing the seating of the delegates I do not agree that the popular vote of ALL Americans should not be heard. I for one will be voting for McCain in November as a means to teach the DNC a lesson about letting every persons vote be heard. Bottom line. We all know that if Florida and Michigan were counted then the race would still be up to either candidate. I urge you to teach the DNC a lesson and vote for McCain.

Her administration will be worse than the current. I can't believe that they are blackmailing the speaker of the house.

Whats the problem with her leaning towards Obama?
She is a super D and has the right to pick whomever she wants.

The shame is that she has to hide her preference because of the backlash of Clintons supporters.

That to me says the Clintons have waaay to much power that needs to be kept in check.

After over 16 years of the White House being in the hands of monied special interests, it is time for a change. Come on Nancy, call Billary on her extortion and tell her to pound sand.

More arm twisting from the Clinton camp. Too bad it's over.

So its either make it so Hillary has a better chance at winning the nomination or I'm cutting you off? Hmm. It seems the will of the American people isn't a major concern but the will of Hillary's people is what matters most. I'm sure all of her deep pocket donors stand to benefit a great deal if she gets the nomination and later elected. Same old Washington politics at work.

Doesn't this creep understand, it's the people that have funded the Obama campaign, millions of them.

Obama and the democratic party no longer need to pander to creeps like this. Pelosi was right to tell this creep toa take a flying leap. No one can BUY the presidency, not even the Clinton's.

Not this time. Not any longer.

And why would a rich jerk like you pay for changing rules that everybody agreed upon befor ethe game starts?, probably because it might work out for Billary's benefit, and it's probably in your interest to have her in the office so she can be your puppet, that will also mean that a rich jerk like you want to change what millions of americans voted for, to hell with democracy and welcome to a third world corruption mentality. Mr,.. Whatever, your deep pockets won't change what americans believe in, Change. Mr. Whever, Democracy doesn't need your money, it needs TRUTH, and that's what billary lacks.
In fact, i'm going to donate $50 to Obama's campaign right.
Obama, 08, 12

Florida and Michigan both have a right to revote this is America and all votes should be counted you can not have a convention with 48 states Last Time I looked we had 50 states

About the revote thing, in fairness to all if Obama side has not weighed in their votes (where they missed out on voting), then there shall be a re-opening contest again.

But I also agree that America shall not ignore the voices of these 2 states. After all, it is 50 not 48, made of America.

Obama shall step out to support such move, and not keeping silent.

A vote for change is always there. If both are genuine good leaders, their voices shall be heard.

The world always believe Democrats hold the better masterplan for America and this world.

Stop generating hatred by dis-engaging direct confrontation at this time. You have fought for the freedom of Iraq and Afghan. It is time to withdraw and let the present government handle it.

We truly respect and support America for their great sacrifices.

About the loss of war funds, I hope the World Bank can do something about it apart from Iraq oil revenues. The world has to give something back to America anyway so that their reasons are being appreciated.

This guy is utterly ridiculous. The entire Clinton Campaign are a bunch of losers that will do anything, even at all costs, to win. Pelosi should smash this threat, and take control of the party before things get out of hand.

Florida and Michigan were too stupid to follow the rules. It's amazing that no one ever thought about the consequences of the rules when they were made, and agreed upon. It's only when things do not work out that people pay attention. Did Clinton, Michigan, and stupid Florida think the DNC were joking?

Mr. Weinstein, please stick to moviemaking and out of politics.

You can try to "slow the flow of donations" to the DNC, but it won't work. If you had clout like that as Hillary's supporter, her campaign coffers would be overflowing, but they're not. You are old-school.

Obama has no problem bankrolling his campaign with donations from the little people. When Obama is declared the nominee, the DNC will also benefit from their support.

Turn the page.

Hopefully the DNC will stay strong and show that money can't buy votes.

Another jerk from Clintons camp..

I smell corruption. Clearly Clinton can't win but then again super delegates are saying she has a chance??? Is this a democracy or dictatorship because the majority has already voted for Obama. But then again you can always take it away like Bush did to Gore . This is insane.

Nope, money doesn't influence policy at all in America ... in the words of the 70's generation: tell him to take his money and shove it!

GOOD, they all need to back off!

know we know the type of corruption that is going on. He knows they will not be able to buy Sen. Obama so they want Sen. Clinton as President then you will have the same old politics in Washinton, nothing will change.

Wow, I didn't know the Dems put the Presidency up for sale. Well is guess we are all a bunch of capitalists anyway. They should sell it on Ebay and make it a fair sale.

And this is what's wrong with the election process today..........

WELL I SAY GOOD RIDDENS.... HILIARY IS JUST LIKE A REPUBLICAN.... BUYING THE ELECTION.... WE DO NOT NEED ANYMORE HANGING CHADS... MICHIGAN AND FLORIDA SHOULD NOT COUNT THE STATES AND HILIARY BROKE THE RULES SO THEY SHOULD NOT BE ALLOWED IN THE PRIMARY, HE ONLY PERSONS TO BLAME ARE THEIR REPUBLICAN GOVERNORS AND OFFICIAL AND YES HILIIARY, IF SHE WOULD HAVE OBEYED THE RULES THIS MESS WOULD NOT HAVE HAPPENED.

PUT THE BLAME WHERE IT BELONGS... THE GOVERNORS, ELECTED OFFICIALS AND HILIARY CLINTON......

THE BEST SOLUTION IS TO SPLIT THE DELEGATES STRAIGHT DOWN THE MIDDLE, ANYTHING ELSE IS DUMB RATIONALE.

Finally! Someone with some sense.

COUNT OUR VOTES NOW, OR COUNT US OUT IN NOVEMBER!

FLORIDIANS ARE HOLDING FUNDS UNTIL WE ARE RECOGNIZE!

Hey Harvey, go back to the movies, and leave the politics to those who know what's going on.

OMG now he wants to BUY Billary the votes..they are soooo ridiculous!!! WHAT DO YOU PEOPLE NOT UNDERSTAND???????THEY BROKE THE RULES!!no it's not the peoples fault..but it's their fearless leaders that broke the rules!! BLAME THEM!!!! and get over it!!! she's already LOST!!!! She didn't give a crap when she thought she was going to runaway with the nomination, now that she's crashing and burning OHHH LET THEM COUNT!!! PLEASE Hillary go the hell away!

he can keep his money are you serious you way or the higway then i ll go on the very higway

pelosi for vp

Back off... please

fat slob, who needs him. if nancy caves she should be put in the stocks and little children should throw pies at her.

GOOD JOB hARVEY,WIPE OUT OBAMA FROM THIS PRIMARY.

It has officially began..........

BTW in stores now:

How to steal a Democratic nomination by Billary Clinton

This is ridiculous!!!

this is old news cnn. but i think he should follow through with his threaght.doesnt matter if obama wins , i will vote for mccain, which i am sur was the medias plan all along, because obama is the weaker canidate.

That god for Harvey Weinstein. Wise man!

Unbelievable. Glad this is getting coverage in the MSM. This is exactly the sort of "buying of the gov't" and "old politics" which Senator Obama righteously wants to end.

That does it. Screw them. If this does not show the world just what type of people the Clinton and some of her supporters are capable of I don't know what does. Can't win the election? Just buy it! Just who is the elitist in this campaign? First she borrows her camaign money twice, but will ask her supporters to pay her back. Now they are trying to bully the campagn with money. If the DNC does not tell them where to go, I will become the first registerd Republican in my families history. I was for some sort of compromise, but not more. They broke the rules of which they signed. Let them eat the copies of those rules.
Super Delegates, you have to put an end to this now! To kkkkk with her feelings.

I know BUYING elections is an old tradition, but W.T.H.!!!!

This is flat out black mail! "Do what I want or I won't pay you anymore". You don't own the DNC Weinstein! I expect this sort of crap from the GOP!

Hey Pelosi, you want to see "Disenfrancisement"! Go ahead with the revotes in Mich and Fla! Confirm for the rest of the country that the DNC's rules don't mean anything and that you CAN be bought!

If this happens, I'm done! England here I come.

Sad... and Very Hollywood. I guess we know now who runs this country... gas companies, banks and special interest groups... the win at all cost is going to cost hard-working Americans... Very sad.

...and all of this would clearly happen....if Obama was in Hillary's position

I wish him luck Pelosi has made her hatred for Hillary Clinton quite apparent. Pelosi is the most do nothing speaker we have had in my lifetime and she's getting involved in electoral politics? I wish Senator Clinton would dump the Democrats and go Independent. The Democratic leadership has treated her shamefully. I'm jumping parties and voting straight ticket Republican if Obama is the nominee and urge all Clinton supporters to do the same. Give the leadership the thumbs down!

I am sick n tired of this woman and her delusional supporters.

The most negative campaigning ina democratic primary. Thanks Hillary. We need no more republicans on this side.

It's his money.

Is he hired or called upon by Rush Limbaugh? Who would need this kind of donors, given millions of new Obam's donors?

Good. Maybe some moderate Republican's might give the Democratic nominee a more serious second look.

"We have been strong supporters of the DCCC," the fundraisers wrote to Pelosi. "We therefore urge you to clarify your position on superdelegates and reflect in your comments a more open view to the optional independent actions of each of the delegates at the National Convention in August."

Go choke yourself Weinstein.

I use to work for Weinstein's company. He is one of the biggest bully's in the business. I have not doubt that he threatened Pelosi. What's the matter Harvey, your candidate cant not win on her own? The people now run the democratic party with almost 2 million donors. We don't need you or your tactics any longer. BYE BYE

Supporting McCain in the national is one thing, why would Clinton supporters want to make the Democrats lose Congressional seats if Clinton doesn't get the nomination? And who thinks that intimidating Pelosi actually works?! I hope Pelosi sends him running with his tail between his legs.

This actually explains a lot-although it is disturbing. It explains Hill's comments about crushing Iran. It also highlights how power and influence are always tied to money.

So ,now that democracy doesn't work the Clinton campaign will try extortion and black mail.Sad and growing sadder by the minute.

I tell you, between Hillary Clinton and her croonies, do all they know how to do is bully people?! They all are like bullies you want to take out back and just smack them with a 2X4.

the voters as a whole matter and not this lunatic of a guy. The Democratic party is slowly becoming what I hate so much about the Republican party. Regardless of what happens I'm switching to independent.

Hillary had support by large money people she will "owe something to to when elected" Barack get small donations from average Americans.

Another fat cat trying to buy Clinton the nomination. Go figure. I guess motto ought to be, 'rules are rules unless they hurt me'. Ms. Inevitable has turned ought to be Ms. Irrelevant.

Hang in there Hillary Clinton. The Democratic Party wants you to bow out of the race, and as soon as you do – they're going to count Florida and Michigan, whose numbers would have allowed you to catch up. Then, they'll look like the good guys all around.

We're Americans Hillary. Play to the end. The Democratic Party is known for their underhandedness. That's why they lose every four years – expect when your husband was in office. I'm now an Independent because of this.

Voice for a fairer America.

This is really getting ridiculus. Superdelegates please end this drama. It is getting worse by the day when people are trying to buy and threaten the democratic leaders. Shameful.

geeeeez bribery

These type of idots are all over the places that is why US and world has incompetent leaders.

Vote for BARACK OBAMA.

another failed attempt by hillary and her buddies to intimidate super delegates and buy the white house!!!! what a shame, super delegates ought to stop this woman and her wealthy cronies from threatning the party anymore!!!

This are the kind of people who need to be cleaned out of the white house by Obama, Lobysist

Obama '08

I'm with Harvey Weinstein on this one......100%!

Go Hillary!

Hillary or McCain – 2008

And the Democrats should show some backbone and tell him to take his money elsewhere.

Blackmail for Hillary? This looks bad..

What a Bully ! Yep, typical Washington Politics, disgusting.

Such a surprise that a Clinton Supporter is 'threatening' someone! Couldn't expect that... could we?

Weinstein is a pure sleaze ball!

That figures, when will people wake up. This is the dirtiest family ever in politics. The Clintons should be republicans since they use all of their tactics.

Hey Obama peeps, this would be someone the queen would have rewarded with a cabinet position. Thanks goodness she did not get the nod from us voters!!! Way to go america!!!! We do not want to queen here!!!

GREAT THE FAT CATS ARE TRYIN TO BUY THE NOMINATION HOW GREAT

The elite are at it again... These folks are no better than the people that back Bush. She's a pawn.

This explains the 'Oblitergate'... lol

I can honestly say that I would never vote for this person.

Man I wish I had a friend that could buy me 2 elections in 2 very expensive states and not be categorized as an elitist! I guess all "Blue collar" down to earth, whiskey drinking, gun toting, underdogs have one or 2 of those in their pocket.

It just keeps getting funnier! Late night TV writers couldn't come up with stuff this good!

Wow what a style of speach... hum looks like Hillary .. no wander why he is on her side instead of the democratic party...

These are the Clinton "kool-aid" drinkers who are living in lala land. They've contributed soo much to a loosing campaign that they want to win at all cost so they can get the shady contracts (just like Huliburton) to repay their loans.

Well it's too late now. The train is left the station.

how ridiculous is this sorry excuse for a american women?? She should be ashamed of herself for trying to pit whites against black to create a racial divide. At this point, I pray to god that Hillary supporters hear her repeated divisive comments and start jumping ship. We has democrats stand up for something that Hillary no longer believes in. There isn't any semblance of dignity in this women. The only way she knows how to campaign is to try to tear down Obama and the democratic party. I would respectfully urge clinton supporters who are my fellow democrats to do what's good for our party and give Obama a chance. His policies are 95% the same as clintons and he seems to be a more genuine person.

thank you

Oh, I don't like where all this is going... Our party is heading towards disaster!
Superdelegates / Al Gore need to step in before it gets ugly and McBush cruises to a 3rd Bush Term....

As an Obama supporter, I don't even want to get into this... Just stop it for the sake of the party!!! Please!

Politics as usual. If you support Clinton, you support people like this.

"Weinstein also suggested that if Democratic leaders "did not fix" the Florida and Michigan problem, powerful Democrats may abandon the eventual party nominee in favor of Sen. John McCain"

Democrats who do this are acting like children. Come on...if your candidate doesn't get the nod, you're going to give Bush a 3rd term? Either juvenile actions or empty threats.

Let's come together and end the Republican mismanagement!

Blackmail is not the way to win an election. It's called a democracy for a reason, even if your candidate doesn't get the nomination.

Another politics of old, bully tactic. Shameful.

So now the Clinton campaign is resorting to blackmail!!!! ARE WE GOING TO TAKE THIS!!!!!!!!!! I THOUGHT HER CAMPAIGN COULDN'T STOOP ANY LOWER!!!!!!

Obama Richardson 2008

The truth is finally coming out.

What a shame!!!!

BULL GO OBAMA

A government held hostage...McCain is looking better and better.

Not surprising at all! All she can do now is try to smear him! And that has already started. The Clintons are risking losing a lot more than just the nomination, they are going to lose all of their respect, dignity, trust, admiration. Oh... I think they already lost those things.

DROP OUT NOW BILLARY!!!!!!!!!

OBAMA 08 !

OBAMAMABO

Speaking as someone who grew up in the business and knows first-hand, ask anyone in entertainment what kind of a jerk Weinstein is

This is EXACTLY why we don't want the Clinton machine back.

Clintons follow the rules? You're joking me. Same Washington crap as usual.

And Harvey, instead of cutting off the Democrats (Clinton) cashflow, how about cutting back on the Twinkies!

What a pig!
And this is democracy, Clinton style?

Looks like a typical Clinton supporter....eyes closed and clueless.

Okay, last month they wanted to seat the delegates "as is". Now that they realize she would still be a good 100 delegates behind, they want a re-vote. If I were them, I wouldn't push this action. They may get a surprise they did not expect.

What's Hillary's stance on lobbyists, again?

spoken like a true liberal..Who says you can't buy a democrat

Powerful media moguls trying to change the outcome of an election. Who does he think he is, William Randolph Hearst?

I won't be seeing another Weinstein movie for awhile.

People with money who then want power.... all the more reason to vote for Obama.

Pelosi should tell him to take his funds & stick 'em! With Obama running, the power is in the hands of the American people.

it's a shame

That's just great. I beleive they call that extortion? Send that retard to jail.

Hmm. A big contributor is using his leverage as a donor to push for a special interest.

It appears that a Hillary Presidency would make Bush's look like paradise.
