Obama supporters that proclaim racism or lack of education on the part of Hillary supporters if they choose not to support Obama are doing their candidate a disservice. You are guilty of the same closed-mindedness you claim by lumping all of us in the same pile.

I am a college-educated individual capable of independent thought. I generally vote Democratic because I don't like the stance the Republican party in general takes on social issues currently. However, I am more moderate to conservative regarding economic and national security issues, so I haven't always agreed with some of Obama's ideas.

In addition, I'm not really comfortable electing another neophyte to lead this country. In my opinion, Obama just looks like Bush wearing a Democratic suit right now. There are still many months until the election, so I could potentially be convinced to choose Obama, if he surrounds himself with solid individuals. However, the vitriolic attitude of his supporters and some members of his campaign is pushing me, and a lot of others, away.

If she's so electable then why is she losing almost twice as many elections?

""Hillary Clinton’s campaign stepped up its efforts to convince uncommitted members of Congress to back the Illinois senator Friday""

Ooooooooops!

you mean, "New york senator" I hope she is pressing them to join the Illinois Sen.

She can't even get nominated, so how in the world could she possibly be elected??

The woman is a lunatic. She's doing her best to set feminism back 10 years.

illinois senator?

Hillary, you have lost. Get back to work in the Senate and get to work for the Democratic nominee.

DON'T GIVE UP HILLARY, WE YOUR SUPPORTER WILL NEVER GIVE UP ON YOU TILL THE END

HILLARY FOR PRESIDENT (DO OR DIE)

If she hasn't been able to win the nomination by now, or even lead, how can she say she'll win the general election?

Senator Clinton is right, Obama cant be elected. And if Obama becomes the nominee, I urge all Clinton supporters to support McCain or stay at home. Obama is an arrogant disaster waiting to happen.

Thats Fine…i've voted Democrat for the past 10 years and if Obama gets the nominee I will definitely vote REPUBLICAN

She is the best to head the ticket if we want to win in November, otherwise its going to be Gore and Kerry all over again. The democrats keep making the same mistake over and over again. Let's not make it this time around. We really need to win this time.

Time to move ahead Hillary.

Drop out. Polls dont matter you said. Niether does your internal presentation.

This is another of Hillary's bogus aruments. Here is why.
Obama can win those white blue collar voters. When he picks a white running mate that appeals to these voters they will vote for the whole ticket. That person must be someone either a white man or a woman ( to appeal to Hillary's constituancy) that can bridge the gap of mistrust and stereotypes that this segment of America feels toward Obama. Once the name of Clinton disappears from the radar screen and Barack and his running mate start to campaign it will be different.She should wake up.

Seriously?!
Move On…
It's Over Hil- it's over.

Dear God - The only thing missing now is a change in the campaign theme song - are we going to be hearing Helen Reddy do "Angie Baby" - "It's so nice to be insane, no one asks you to explain"…….. I have admired this woman for years but this is just plain silly - the voters have spoken the delegates have been counted and the math doesn't lie. Since I know she's not stupid - the only explanation is loss of sanity.

Stop smiling Obama. Your days are numbered in this race. Love that Hillary, unstoppable.

This woman is crazy!
She has already lost.She doesn't have a crystal ball to know how the general will go.
She is trying to steal the nomination because she feels entitled.
The dems need to stop her already.

Enough Hillary! Enough! By changing the rules would only destroy the democratic party. What is wrong with you?

Oh gawd, enough already!!!!! Hilary, this is the PRIMARY. Those who have voted for you and are strong Democrats, will vote for Obama. No one, unless they're a complete idiot, will vote for McCain. He's just the third term solution for the Bush family. Stop spinning the facts! Stop it, stop it, stop it!!!!

The majority of the Democratic Party has voted for Obama. The superdelegates are all running to him. Do you think they would do that if they didn't think he could get elected?!?! Do you see Edwards anywhere in the game?

As you did with your fuel tax "holiday" pandering you're ignoring the facts. You're ignoring the experts. You're a bright woman, but you are not the expert in all things. Your ego will be your own undoing.

If only the swing states were to matter, as suggested by Clinton backers now, then what was the point in holding primaries throughout the country. You cant change the rules of the game as per your liking.

Where's James Carnville? Haven't heard from him since Monday evening. I wonder what he has to say about Hillary's electability argument.

Clinton is not electable. Here's why… she is condescending, she has demonstrated that her primary interest is sticking to her own agenda rather than listening to the voices of 300+million people, she lies compulsively for political gain, she embellishes her qualifications on almost every issue, and (drum roll please) the people have spoken and they want Obama! I'm not sure what dictionary Hillary uses to define the word "electable" but to put it simply, electable = elected. Obama is leading in that category.

Hillary move on….you are publicly unraveling. It is time to unite the party, not divide it any further. I am disappointed in you.

Primaries have next to nothing to do with general elections.

If a deeply red county has 50,000 voters, but only 10,000 democrats, and Hillary wins those democrats in a primary by 7,500 to 2,500, that is not an argument that Hillary has a much better chance at winning the county in a GE than Obama does.

And these are the kinds of counties Hillary has been pinning her electability argument on.

Meanwhile, Obama wins the blue counties, both in blue states and in red ones, by large margins.

Somebody please call the Apollo Fox Theater "sandman" to take her away!!!

Now that we've seen how truly racist and petty Hillary will be up to her bitter inevitable end, I can say without any hesitation that I will never support this woman under any circumstances. That includes the VP status that she's now angling toward in order to pay off her debts. There really aren't enough words to describe the awfullness of her.

This coming on the heels of comments stating Obama is losing support among white voters sounds close to a statement that she should be the nominee because she's white, Obama is not, and it will take a white person to win the general election.

Unless I'm mistaken, being electable is about getting votes, and Obama appears to be more successful in this regard than Hillary.

I think the Clintons are collectively on their 3rd or 4th deck of race cards played, which is a sad way to seal their legacy.

Is this positioning by Mrs. Clinton to vie for the VP position?

Enough of you Clinton. Duh… She is going crazy.

If she is so electable then why isn't she winning?

Can someone please help this woman get into therapy? I have never seen such a blatant case of denial in my life.

Maybe Hillary Clinton should drop out and run as an independent

Just do everyone think of that ?

Melissa MI

She won the big democratic states and the swing states- his victories in red states that vote Republican in November aren't going to matter much in November.

Has the Gimmick Candidate announced she just met with David Blaine and he showed her how to levitate which qualifies her to the nomination yet?

The best proof of racism is that 90 to 95 % of African Americans who were staunch Clinton supporters switched loyalty once there was a Black candidate to vote for.

What is that if NOT racism.

Remember that 90 to 95 % of White people are not voting against Obama.

Hillary has the necessary coalition to win in November. Obama certainly does not. Obama will lose come November. The left wing side of the Democratic Party continues to force loser candidiates (ie: Kerry, Dukakis) on the rest of the party because the liberal left wing fails to see the importance of the blue collar vote. The liberal left has also ignored the importance of the Latino vote and all of the women who support Hillary who are furious at the DNC and Obama (and his hate-filled) supporters and who will either write-in Hillary, stay home or vote McCain in November. Plus there are the Catholics and conservative Democrats who will back McCain now. So Obama does not have a winning coalition. I'm a life-long Democrat and I'm completely fed-up with the Democratic Party.

The 'two-fer' Clintons are pathetic liars.
They cannot tell the "truth from fantasy."
Hillary lies and Bill believes it

Hillary is not more electable. If she were, she would have won the nomination. The people have spoken.

Can a Hillary supporter right now sum it up for me as to why you believe she is more electable than Obama without talking about Obama? Seriously… I really want to know.

The informational content of this story is completing wrong. Who proof reads these articles. Everything pertaining to the article is twisted around. As I from Florida know better who Kendrick Meek is and he does not represent Michigan, he is a local congressman. Once the party focus on unity it does not matter what areas of this country your from. If you are for the party you are for the party. People are treating this as a popularity contest based on useless factors. You should not crry bad economy and because your candidate is not the nominee you vote for McCain who has little to no knowledge of our economy.

She truly is the queen of bullsh..!

Can you say delusional, this lady has lost it.

Maybe not, she is campaigning for 2012. Destroy Obama now and come back in 2012 and win. NO CHANCE LADY, YOU MAKE ME SICK

This is insane! If she was more electable then why is she so far behind in the numbers….every number?

Hillary, Its over please fall back!

If she can't win primaries in her own party how is she going to get Independents and moderate Republicans to vote for her? The reason Rush Limbaugh launched Operation Chaos where Repubs vote for Hillary in the primaries is because he knows she is the easiest to beat.

He should choose Colin Powell as a running mate.

What an unenviable positions the DNC is in. They know Clinton is right in that she's the only potentially electable democratic candidate. They also know the crucifiction that would take place if Obama is not the democratic nominee. A lose/lose situation if I ever saw one.

I wonder if Hilary's power point presentations mention one of the most critical demographics of the race: young people. They have come out to vote for Obama in unprecedent numbers, and if he plays his cards right, they can win the election for the democrats. This is one of the most hopeful outcomes of the race, and most of the media have downplated or buried it. It is a huge story. Why are we only talking about the elderly, blue collar workers and ethnic groups?

Look - at least she is promoting her own strengths and not tearing Obama down. She said she is staying in, so just get used to it, Obama supporters!

I'm an Obama supporter too, but you aren't doing any good by saying negative things about her at this point. As long as she doesn't go negative on Obama, she can stay in until the voting is done.

Hillary supporters-would you still back McCain if she was on the ticket with Obama?

This is exactly what the role of the superdelegate is…not to simply place their vote for the person with the most pledged delegates (any Tom, Dick, or Harriet can do that), but to use their supposed knowledge, experience, and status within the party to decide which candidate has the greater electability.

Freudian slip, CNN??? She may be on to something regarding Obama's electability….we'll have to wait and see…for me, why be so loyal to the Prty whenI feel they are shoving Obama down my throat? I'm going McCain.

Electability starts from To Be Elected. On the first place.
When You can not be elected , making all kind of twists , that You can not be elected.
That what are You talking about?
Ma-am, You are NIOT electable.
Period

Please Hillary, Let it go. I was your supporter, until recently but its time. If you keep doing these things, it will look like you are desperate and it will only divide the party. This election is too important because of the WAR and the fact that the next president will appoint two Supreme Court Justices.

Thank you

Go Hillary!!

If not Hillary….then McCain!!

If Obama gets the nominee….there will be millions of McCain Democrats.

You know, why are you at CNN deleting comments for Hillary???

Duh…because you are biased.

What happened to Hillary's tax holiday? She said experts opinions doesn't matter so why she stopped talking about it? Was that for her target IN audience only?

As I see it, the big hole in Hillary Clinton's argument is that when (and this is really important) the party is united in November and she is rallying her base to vote Democrat, all of those that Hillary says will vote for her will also vote for Barack Obama, right? So what am I missing?

LOL. I certainly hope the memo is for backing the ILLINOIS SENATOR. haha. I think that's what it does inadvertently anyway because of its sheer level of desperation.

Get a grip!!!! Please. Why is she having to go through all of this if she is so electable? I hate her!!!!!

Whose electability? It is over Hillary. Bill and Chelsea wants you to phone home so they can tell you it is over. What part of it is over don't you underdstand.

She ought to have won this contest long time ago if she's more competent and electable than Obama. Power to the people!

I have lots of respect for HRC (albeit Bill), however, what she's saying doesn't add up, if you can win all this so-called important votes why is she still behind. One thing that is certain is this, if by some magic she steals this nomination using back room tactics, the repercussion she herself will not be able to handle, and I'm pretty confident, the democratic party will be torpedoed. It is one thing to win, it is a complete different story to steal. Let her finish the campaign but she should do it positively because if he ends up the nominee (which is almost certain), she has to eat her vomits.

If she was more electable, she would have more votes and pledged delegates.

Haven't we heard this arguement from Hillary before. She obviously doesn't hear the people speaking. Haven't we heard the request for more debates. Because she has limited funds doesn't give her the right to request free air-time. Where's her push for the gas tax holiday or did she realize that pandering didn't work. Obama and Clinton have very similar stance on issues, so Clinton supporters will not vote for Obama? Well if they want to shot themselves in the foot and we can have more of what Bush gave us. No president wil fix all problems, not even the so called experienced Hillary. How much experience did Bill have when he took office. I loved Bill Clinton, he was good for those times and she is not for these times. I am sure Hillary is very smart and should make all woman proud, but lately she's making herself look like a fool.

If Obama is the nominee, then he will lose in November for the election that this is all supposed to be about… For President of the United States, not President of the Democrats. Remember when Kerry lost againt Bush in 2004 when Bush had everything against him and the polls said Kerry would win? Do all these people who vote for Obama just want to win the Democratic Primary and NOT the Presidential Election come Nov 2008? I guess so… It's sad that people will vote against Obama soley because he is African American. But it's equally sad when 90% of the African American Democrats voted for him soley because he is African American. Isn't this supposed to be about who can be the best President, not the color of ones skin or the best speeches? I cannot in good concious vote for someone to bePresident of the United States who would essentially be sent into office with little experience and training wheels to try to handle domestic or world problems to the extreme degree that Bush has made these problems. I will either not vote or will vote for McCain if Hillary is not the nominee or on this ticket. I obviously didn't drink Obama's koolaid.

Hilliary please while you have some dignity left…..its going very quickly. Their is now talk that you can not grasp reality.

i am un-whelmed. who left the gate open? old girl is baaack.

Yeah, I believe that Hillary Clinton is a 'New York' Senator.

Hillary has turned out to be a huge disappointment. Her campaign ugly.
I know a more worthy female candidate will emerge some day, but in the meantime I am happy to support Barack Obama all the way to the White House.

When are you going to remove Roland's rehtoric from the ticker space (Commentary)? Are you trying to hide your ticker?

Point one. A majority of the delegates that voted for Hillary in the primaries will vote for Obama in the general.

Point two: Obama will undoubtably choose a running mate that will broaden his base.

Point three: Would Hillary agree to be Obama's running mate if asked?

She is looney and she wants us to elect her for president. I don't think so right now she is showing signs of being a very unstable person. It is really sad to watch and I wish she would stop. But on the other hand we already know she does not have any self respect nor shame why else would she still be with a man who humiliated her the way her husband did.

It is going to be very difficult for Sen. Obama to win in November. Sen. Obama is not exposed by Republicans yet as he is low profile politician in public for last 3 years.

I am pretty sure that there will be countless skeletons hidden in Sen. Obama's closet.

Sen. HIllary is in public eyes for more then 20 years. She knows who is who and how to takle them.

Hillary will hang around a little longer.
Rezco's defense team rested without calling a single witness… she's waiting to see what comes of it. If he's convicted (and he will be)… will be interesting what he does for a plee!

Once again only way McCain wins if Hillary supporters vote him in. If that happens well it happens. However I am proud to once feel not like an african-american but this time an American. Thanks Mr. Obama, white eiitist, youngvoters, and educated americans.

I hope for once Rev Wrights and Rural hard working white Americans (not all but the ones that represent the old race hatred division) which republicans and now Hillary pander to, do the right thing this time. Give the generation that is not so tainted by the past a chance to make our country a nation for all.

And I am a conservative by most standard.

If she's so electable, why is she losing?

Hillary's true support base is senior citizens. In Indiana, Obama won by 6% all voters age 17-64. Hillary won all voters 65+ by 38%, enough to overtake his winning all other age categories. FL, WVa and Penn are the top 3 in average age of the state population, so we can expect her to win by a huge margin in WVa. This does not mean she is more electable. Democrats cannot win without their AA base (25% of the Democratic vote). The unprecedented number of newly registered voters across the nation are overwhelmingly for Obama.

Superdelegates, it's time to bring the Party together around one candidate–Barack Obama.

Is she still running to become VP on McCain's ticket ??? Wh y is she saying McCain is better then Obama ?? she is truly a republican….

We dont even know who their is on their VP ticket… and we are not even looking at what the republicans are doing.. so give it a break
and if we don't win in November, then run in 2012 woman and try to win that time… and run your campaign…

This woman is crying FOUL!
And bringing feminism a shame by her acts

OK, if she is so electable then why isn't she winning?

People Obama still lied to all Americans look he said in the campaign that he don't want any lobbying so why yesterday he lobby Rep. in the hill?
this is liar he still lied. So this is kind of leader your guy need I don't think
so it still not too late your guy still have chance to vote for the right and real President of the United States. Other thing some body and some old man call Hillary to drop out after IN and NC…..why their didn't call Obama
to drop out after PA, TX and OH? Also, why their didn't call him to drop out
after Rev. Wright hatred comment came out it cause Obama too long to react so this kind of leader your guy need and I don't think so. This is not
my vote, not my leader and is not my President.

"Obama is an arrogant disaster waiting to happen."
AJ, I would say that a person who is loosing an election such as Hillary, and doesn't have a chance to win but won't drop out because she feels she deserves the nominee is ARROGANT.

Omgosh I hope all of you who do vote for McCain if Hillary doesn't win will do so that if he wins you all will pay the price. You will definitely get what you deserve so please by all means vote for McCain. Don't complain either about what happens to this country. You are selfish people who could care less about the future of this country or the future of your children. It's not about the candidate it's about our future! But please by all means go ahead it's your right to do so.

She is right but sadly people are blinded by fear.

Inconsistencies in this presentation. This is outrageous…has Clinton been able to win over the black, young & independent votes???. I also think the facts in this piece are twisted, Kendrick Meek is from Florida…this senator needs to get a grip!. Understand that no amount of "political arm-twisting" from Clinton's camp can change "demos" choice.

If Hillary doen't get the nomination….I believe that we will lose the House and the Senate!!!

Destroy the country Obama and Howard Dean and CNN!!

Why don't we get a few more blacks at CNN. Almost everyone that is interviewed is black and biased!!!

Including Donna!!!

Hillary for 2008 and Obama for 2012.
Go Hillary!!! Don't give up.

Neither one of them have the count to be nominated.

It is all up to the Super Deligates.

The voice of the Elite instead of the voice of the People!!

Every Super Delegate should endorse Barack Obama or else the party falls apart.

Bill & Hillary only care about themselves, not the party. She's a Goldwater Girl from way back.

She even looks crazy just look at the picture.

The insults against Hillary and Bill Clinton won't drive them away. It will only drive the voters away who see what the Obama spirit is really like. No hope, no uniting only division, sarcasm, hate and all that is evil.

Keep it up it's working well for you.

I guess the 'universal' health care that Senator Clinton gets as a member of Congress doesn't include mental health and wellness. A PowerPoint presentation? Come on. It's pretty sad that the Clinton campaign bases their whole strategy on the rock-paper-scissors premise.

McCain covers Obama, Obama smashes Clinton, Clinton cuts McCain.

Just because you do not believe Obama is the best candidate does NOT make one a racist… nor does voting for the best candidate mean that one is not a true democrat for NOT voting for the weaker candidate.

Hillary's desperation long since has turned me off. I'm thankful everyday that I'm not part of the democratic party. She is tearing that party apart. What surprises me more than anything though is that the superdelegates are letting this happen. They can easily put a stop to this and begin to try to mend the damage she did and continues to do everyday.

I thought that if Obama loses the general election it would clearly be her fault but now i'm begining to believe it will be the superdelegates fault. She cannot continue to say and do the things she says and does much longer…she's pretty much offended almost every imaginable group save the uneducated whites who she claims is her broad base.

Hillary probably wants to drop out, however she has made so much noise about every vote needing to count, that she needs to stay in so it appears that she really means it.

It ain't over, till the fat lady sings!! That would be Michelle Obama.

I believe in miracles….and I believe in Hillary….

I bet mrs. Clinton will also lose her Senate Seat in the next election, that way she must understand that the American people do speak and understand what she represents (herself and surrogates)

This presidential contest is like soccer. It's not the team that dribbles most that lifts the trophy, but the one that scores more goals. Clinton is nowhere close to have fulfilled any of the elements I have mentioned in this analogy. Obama has made the most impressive dribbles and scored the most goals. How can Clinton come to claim victory. The Clinton dynasty can't bring itself to terms with the fact that a junior senator , a black man could have floored them. Nothing else is keeping her in the race except this.

With all of this fighting once we split the country into 2 pieces those that support Hillary and those that support Barack then will she be able to say that she is the commander and chief and president of all americans? I think not. People think!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

POOR ARGUEMENT:

She won older voters, Obama won Younger voters
She won rural voters, Obama won Urban voters
She won uneducated voters, Obama won well informed voters
She won Democratic states only, he won both democratic and republican states
She won only 16 contests, he won 32 contests
She has less popular votes, he has more
She has huge pledge delegate deficit, he has surplus
She is Broke, He is "Balling"
The List continues….

So, what's her point? Can someone explain

Why is Hillary still in the race? Seriously, I wonder if she's secretly working for McCain to destroy the dem party…

obama 08!!

MSNBC just anounced anthur Supe for Obama! This is a continaul no win situation for Hillary. She should be gracious, step down,aand let Democrats move forwrd to November. Congratulation Sen. Obama - on to the White House!

Hillary, yes I have latinas friends who gave you their vote, and most of them did it because of what the Clintons have done in the past for the latino community; I vote for Obama bacause I'm convinced he will do more and batter -it's a generational thing.

Okay, most of us who respect Hillary's First Lady position, she is making it harder to maintain that respect. This mountain of different reasons Hillary is giving as why she is more electable is getting darn right ridiculous by the minute. Obama has the numbers to support the negatives of everything Hillary says. Right now Hillary has been down and dirty lying about the reason she remains and that's what help her get in the trouble she's in today. God Bless Hillary, but she needs to go now.

I thought Hillary was going to be a gracious loser and think of her backers. Again, as always - she is only thinking about doing anything to win, regardless of who it hurts. Hillary is completely making a fool of herself. And the Democratic Party is allowing her to also make fools of the party itself. Where is the backbone of the party?

Barack is a once in a lifetime candidate. It is the Democratic Party now that I am doubting. Where is the backbone of the party ?

Hillary is so electable that she is losing her own party's primary. Let me get the argument then….Obama is beating her in votes, delegates, and states but we should give her the nomination because she is the one to beat McCain. Brilliant!

Her honesty ratings are below 50%, her negatives are above 60%, she has gone broke managing her poorly run campaign and she is the better candidate. Brilliant!

Hillary had the Clinton machine and democratic party behind her and still she got beat by a candidate that many had not heard of up until 7-8 months ago. Yet somehow she is the better candidate. Brilliant!

Hillary please turn out the lights on your way out.

America needs a Uniter and not a Divider. Obama is reaching out to everyone, and Hillary is zeroing in on this "white only" fight and morphing into modern version of Geoge Wallace.

It makes me sick to see it and THIS is why she should just quit.

Has anyone else noticed that she dropped that whole "gas tax holiday" crap? Haven't heard her mention anything about that since last week. Wonder why? Was it just for pandering? One has to wonder.

"Hillary Clinton’s campaign stepped up its efforts to convince uncommitted members of Congress to back the Illinois senator Friday"

NICELY DONE!

There are hundreds of congressional democrats. She could only get TWELVE to sign her letter?!?!?

She doesn't need to "convince uncommitted members of Congress to back the Illinois senator", they have already done so behind closed doors.

I don't understand that you should be on the top ticket - but some how you have lost this race???????????

Oh… I see - wouldn't you know it - FL and MI are behind this!

Now I see why Obama won't talk with these thugs!!!

Obama - you don't owe Hillary crap! Please do not offer her the VP because she is not about change!

It's funny to see the person behind talk about the person in front!

Now… am I letting her play with mind? Plus, she is BROKE! 98% of her donors have already given the max-amount allowed!

I mean - when does the Super Bowl Winer goes to the weaker team?

Don't sports teams play by the rules and the loser is the loser?

If she is so strong - how come she is not the front-runner?

I will be glad to see her dragged off the stage!

So - hey - I get it! Obama has done every thing to win - but hey - let's give it to Hillary because the polls and her supporters say she can beat Mc Cain!!!

I guess she didn't expect this rookie to be where he is!

And to some of Hillary's stupid supporters - let's see you spend your time and money to win at some thing and then have the loser and her supporters try to take it away from you!

Most of you can't handle being cute off by other drivers!

This election won't be like John Kerry - keep dreaming!

Obama will beat Mc Cain - after all - you people act like Mc Cain has been president - also - the Republican Party has more troubles than the Democratic Party - a lot of republicans do not like Mc Cain nor his wife!!!

It's going to be nice to blog with Obama's supporters after Hillary is kicked to the curb!

Hillary will DEFEAT McCain in General Election, her support is HUGE, not only from the base of the Democratic Party but also moderate Republicans. Many Republicans switched party affiliation so they can vote for Hillary Clinton in General Election, especially parents who have children serving in the Middle East.

What makes Senator an ELECTABLE candidate? Lets talk about our Armed Forces and National Security, TWO former JOINT CHIEF OF STAFF endorsed Hillary. Reagan is the other President who received such endorsement but only ONE while Hillary got two. Ranks and files in the military are HEAVILY supporting Hillary. Our men and women in uniform are NOT polled but these are the group of people that MADE Gore lost Florida in 2000 against Bush.

Does anyone have a suggestion for s good liberal candidate to vote for? If Hillary is forced out, I need to look around.

As a liberal for many years, I cannot in good conscience vote for Obama because of his racist and antisemitic friends and organization membership. I see we just heard from Sharpton - remember his anti-jewish remarks?

I suggest a write in campaign for Al Gore.

The DNC and Obama might as well send out email saying "all serious liberals please leave as quickly as possible - go away".

If McCain wins it is Obama's fault - although I am sure there will be the usual whining and blame.

This is getting sad, and anyone who considers themselves a democrat will vote for Obama or not vote at all come November. It is sad, and also kind of funny to me that so many supporters of Hillary are so upset that she cannot win, that they are willing to screw over their own party just to feel better about Hillary being gone. Go ahead, vote for McCain, you'll regret it when the same policies that have been around the last 8 years are still in full effect and the country is not making any progress. Waaahew white people!

-White moderate from Indiana.

What is the sense to have pledges , supers delegates ? and even the primary? What about the popular votes? That is unfair to give the nomination to Hillary just based on the stes won. Does it mean others States not matter?
This Women is crazy and will do anything to steal the nomination…
Congress or DNC don't push American people to the CIVIL WAR…

Go Hillary Go!!! You are the best candidate to win the White House in November… Hopefully people will start realizing it before its to late.

Hillary cannot even garner the nomination of her own party and she's more electable? How about all the so-called votes Hillary received because of Limbaugh's inane Chaos?

Please! Hillary, you have been defeated. Obama isn't the divisive one here, its YOU. I know, I know, you and your supporters BELIEVE that you are entitled to this, that you are owed this, and gosh darn it how dare anyone actually challenge you and GASP actually get more votes and more delegates.

Yes Obama was a newcomer…and Hillary thought she'd have the nomination wrapped up by Super Tuesday, well to me, that tells you that people are sick of Bush's, they are sick of Clinton's, because more people have voted against her. That to me is a very big statement as to just how disliked Hillary really is….

Hillary's campaign has no money….Obama has raised millions, and brought out new, enthusiastic voters who really want change.

I'm sorry Hillary continues with her "well if I can't win no one will" attitude….she and her supporters could really and truly be uniters by backing Obama, but instead, no, its childish whining because Obama "stole" this from Hillary. The only stealing done would done at this point by Hillary, but unfortunately that's what I expect to try and happen because its the Clinton way.

Y.O.U. H.A.V.E. T.U.R.N.E.D. I.N.T.O. A. C.O.M.E.D.I.A.N. L.A.D.Y.

Not even the democrats all around the country themselves elected her, then why should we believe republicans would come and vote her in November?

I'm supporting Hillary regardless of who is the Democrats nominate. She is the best candidiate. Unfortunately, this primary season has been utterly unfair (from Florida and Michigan, to blatant sexism, to unfair proportional system of awarding delegates, to corrupt caucus systems).
I am writing Hillary's name in on my ballot in November if she is not the nominee. She is the best presidential candidiate and I'm sick and tired of the Democratic Party picking the most left-wing candidiate and failing to recognize that we have to nominate a candidiate with a broad coalition in order to win in November and the winning coalition requires blue collar workers. It also requires women. This liberal soccer mom is voting in November for the best qualified candidiate, the one who has experience, has solutions, who can fix our economy and, who is also a woman. So all you misogynistic Democrats (ie: Sens. Kerry and Kennedy), just take note of all the women who write-in Hillary's name in November if she is not our nominee

I think people forget the Blacks in this country are a MINORITY…..so that means you cannot get the most votes, most states won, most popular vote and BE WINNING without getting votes from the MAJORITY!!

So this argument that Obama is not gettting white votes is crazy!!

are you telling me he is winning with just 14% of the society and is this far ahead?!?! get real!!!!!!!!!!!!!

DEMOCRATS IN 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I remain amazed at some of these comments of posters, national media and others. Thank God we live in America - one person, one vote. So with that backdrop, the person who has "electability" is the person who has the most votes. HRC hopes that "hard-working Americans, white Americans" can't count. (My mouth is still hanging open. I can't believe she said it(1) and that no one is taking her to task for this racist pandering (2). Let's see - most popular votes, most pledged delegate votes, most states won, and closing in on most superdelegates won. If Mr. Obama loses the general election, it would be because racist, spiteful, unpatriotic, vitriolic people who DARE to call themselves Democratis will have handed the election to McCain. This large scale hatred of Obama, fueld by Hillary and Bill Clinton for the last year, will certainly do this country in. Never in a million years did HRC think she wasn't going to be crowned the nominee a scant 6 months ago. That kind of arrogance is not needed AGAIN in our white house. What Obama's campaign has done is unparallelled. People who never thought about being part of the political process in this country have picked up their hope and decided that this man is worth it. It's about character and leadrship - not experience, not electability, not who can beat John McCain. And no one person runs a country. I'm confident Obama will surround himself with intelligent, honest, patriotic people to staff his administration. Next it's up to you as a voter to elect local and statewide individuals who represent your for the good of the country. that's how you change America. Anything else is just plain silly.

NO!! back Senator Obama, it was the negativity that put obstacles before him Obama can overcome these obstacles. We Obama supporters is going to throw ourselves out there like never before to get him elected to the President of the United States of America. Obama also fit in beter to have peace talks with the enemy because he is a minority. Minority's seems to bore well with these people beter than the usual. Remember Jessica Jackson getting the hostage released. I not a Jessica Jackson fan but he was able to do good deeds in that and other things.

I think its time to bring in a consultant in on the behavior of Senator Clinton, it is pointless for her to continue to press on just to damage the Democratic Party. The math has caught up to Hillary its time to end the song, so that Obama can get ready to beat McCain.

Melissa, MI:

Look forward. Obama is the nominee long before today. That's not the issue. Issue is– can he win in November? I've serious doubt. Look at NC. 63% of the total votes Obama got is from African Americans while they are only 30% of total votes. Do you think whites will sit duck in November? What is the guarantee that they will vote for Obama? I don't see much. You may not like her but she and Edwards are smarter than you think. That's why she is more electable but losing.

How do you measure electability?

This woman needs a medic checkup.
She's now introducing the Rush Limbaugh game!
That's nuts!
That's nuts!

Well, time to close the / that Clinton Book.
Best regards from Holland.

Okay what else do you have in your bag of tricks Senator Clinton?

So for all the people writing that it should be given to Clinton, what do you tell your children….If you win a competition, it can be taken away from you and given to someone else just because.

THE PEOPLE WHO WANT TO MAKE THIS AN ISSUE OF SEXISM OR RACISM ARE SMALL MINDED AND HURTING AMERICA.

THE MAIN REASON HILLARY LOST IS A VERY POORLY RAN CAMPAIGN. AND AT TIMES SHE JUST ISN'T VERY LIKIBLE, AND TURNS PEOPLE OFF.

Hillary don't give up, If your not on the ticket we will write you in.

NEVER OBAMA

Here we go again. It ain't over till its over!. give her a chance - she has worked so hard. It is not the 'economy stupid' its EXPERIENCE.
Like her or not, do you want a neophyte trying to run the country.
And some of the Super Delegates who supported Hillary, are leaving like rats - to be on the 'winning' side, not knowing the outcome yet.
Ah, Politicians. And again, half the population has voted for her.

Patricia

Her argument that she has a "broader coalition- referring to "hard working americans, white americans" is just the beginning. By the time she is over- she will be using the N$@@&! word.

The clinton era is over as far as the Democratic movement goes. The best she can do is to bow out gracefully after winning Oregon. If she doesn't, could someone please call her at "3 AM" and tell her its over?

Enough already!

I've heard charges of media bias from both Clinton's and Obama's camps. Yet here's something I notice today: There was a news article yesterday about Hillary counting on "white voters" to make her electible. That story ran, one time, no followup, and today it's out of the Ticker. A few weeks ago Barack made some vague comment about voters being 'bitter' (I say it was vague because it really did not make sense - the words that he actually said, that is. Of course we had no shortage of people *telling* us what he meant). That story grew legs and lasted and lasted and lasted! One day I counted and nine of the ten stories listed in the Ticker were about that one "news" item. Relentless coverage! (of course it was fed by Sen. Clinton HERSELF, who kept bringing it up and MAKING it into a story). Sen. Obama has not "played the race card" on Hillary today - as he could well do - so this story, about a comment that is WAY more offensive than the bitter comment, has now gone away.

Does that seem a little one-sided to anyone else?

@ "thoughts on racism"

- 90% of black people didn't start voting for Obama until the Clintons shot themselves in the foot in SC. Who turned on who?

- "You people" didn't have a problem when 90% of blacks were voting for Bill Clinton.

- 100% of white people have be voting for white men for the last few centuries or so.

- If a legit Latino candidate rises, 90% of Latino's will vote for that person.

I respect and support Hillary's right to make this argument to the super delegates. This approach is preferred to making attacks against the Democratic opponent. I supported Hillary in the primary and I will support Obama in November if he is the nominee and I believe that he will be. We need to unite and not buy into the media hype that Hillary supporters will not support Obama. All of my friends and family who supported Hillary are prepared to support Obama.

IF HILLARY HAS NO SHOT TO GET THIS NOMINATION
WHY OBAMA IS STILL CAMPAINING

I want to hear more about that great gas tax holday plan. It worked so well in IN.

With comments like this from AJ "And if Obama becomes the nominee, I urge all Clinton supporters to support McCain or stay at home." Shows your loyalty to the party AJ.

You would rather have the economy worsen, the war continue and the world starve just because your candidate is losing? What happen to the majority rules or the voter have spoken?

We all would like to have our candidate win but that's not possible and if you vote for McCain in the fall your not only hurting the party but think about it your hurting yourself.

It's time for the superdelegates to listen to their heads instead of their hearts. Hillary is the obvious choice if Dems want to win in November. It's such a no brainer.

I'll vote for Obama in November, but I'm starting to think he'll lose. Not because he's not the best candidate (because he is), but because this country is still filled with far too many racists. You people still can't accept a black man in the White House, and you're going to suffer four more years of Republican crap because of your bigotry. Enjoy it.

Five bucks says CNN doesn't have the cajones to post this.

The Obama-bots seem to forget one thing. Yes, the democratic party is favouring Obama more. However, the USA isn't all democrats!!!! You need to appeal to everybody. Haven't the democrats learned that a liberal democrat CAN'T win?!

Hillary appeals to those white blue color democrats who will vote republican. Just ask Dukakis, Gore, and Kerry. I don't care how much of a delegate lead Obama has. It means NOTHING if he can't win in November.

McCain 08
Hillary 12

Just stop and think for a minute Obama-bots. Do you want to favour a good looking, smooth talking democrat now? OR would you rather have a strong democrat in the White House this January??

If Hillary succeeds in her campaign to steal the nomination from the person who has won it fair and square, she will alienate the African-American constituancy. The African-American's who support Obama will not vote for a person that stole the nomination from the first black person that had the opportunity to get this far. So she may have the blue collar workers and the seniors but she can not win without the African-Americans!!! Think about that Hill-Bill!!!

You are done Ms. Even the supers have desserted you. Just go home.

Those elites in the party think that they are smarter then general party members. People already decide who is more electable.

Kerr was a bad candidate from the start. He was too stuffy and stiff to ever win a general election with blue collar voters. The democrats can unite behind Obama once he has the nomination. The current national polls of swing states do not mean anything right now because they still have to choose between two candidates as a hypothetical.

Once McCain and Obama get into the debates, Democrats will see that a vote for McCain is Bush III and will get behind Obama.

If Hillary gets the nomination from super delegates, all of those new voters brought in by Obama will stay at home this fall. If you thought the increase was large for primaries, wait till the general and Obama will bring in a whole new group of voters.

Tom from ST.Louis:

As an educated person I am sure you are aware that the anonymity of the Internet brings out the worst in people and I would counter that a rude spiteful pro Clinton post can be found to match every rude spiteful pro Obama post. Everyone just needs to calm down. This race has been emotionally charged for everyone and if the Democrats want to retake the White House they need to work together because neither candidate can win if we all vote McSame out of spite.

It's time to brush off the hard feelings and get a little maturity and look deep inside our selves at what is best for our country and it's reputation. Don't cut of your nose to spite your face, it's simply not becoming.

To the UNINFORMED, supposedly "educated" Obama Cult Followers:

SUPERDELEGATES are INDEPENDENT, they will endorse who they think CAN win in GENERAL ELECTION for the PARTY. They do NOT follow popular votes or pledged delegates. Superdelegates was CREATED not to make a MISTAKE like George McGovern who was chosen by students and ultra liberals, the same thing these "educated" and ultra liberals are doing now.

Obama is a SURE SHOT LOSER in General Election against McCain.

I guess if you can win the votes of the people, you can always try to persuade the Washington elite to overturn their votes.

FOR ALL OF YOU I'LL VOTE FOR MCCAIN AKA MCBUSH IFHILLARY DOES NOT WIN THE LAST TIME I CHCKED THEY WERE NOT TAKING 71 YEAR OLDS IN THE MILITARY OLD SOLDIERS MY NOT DIE RIGHT AWAY BUT THEY SHOULD FADE AWAY. WAR IS A YOUNG MANS GAME YOU HAVE TO STICK AND MOVE YOU CAN'T BE AN OLD STICK IN THE MUD SLOW, HALF BLIND TO NEW IDEARS, NO WAY WE NEED A YOUNG FRESH VIGOROUS COMMANDER IN CHEIF AND BOY THATS NOT MCCAIN AKA MCBUSH (YES OBAMA CAN)11111

I think it's HILARIOUS when the Obamanuts scream racism at anybody at this point. LOL! Barack himself admitted before he repudiated his formerly beloved uncle Reverend Wright that what Wright said wasn't unusual in black churches, and we whites should try to understand the "culture." Sorry, I have no interest in understanding a culture of hate.

Scream racism until your faces fall off. It just doesn't hold power anymore. Stick your cries of racism where the sun don't shine, and please don't subject your children to RACIST Sunday sermons in typical African-American churches.

If James McDougal had not died before he was able to testify against Sen. Clinton in the Watergate scandal, we would not be reading such an article. Why? Because she would probably be in jail.

The superdelegates need to end this before Sen. Clinton loses what little mind she has left. As long as they hold out, she will think there is a chance that enough of them are as crooked as she is and disregard the outcome of the election and give it to her.

AJ…….grow up……the competition is different come nov…….CA, NY, IL, will get the democratic nod……..we have not won OH or FL in the last two elections but she thinks that she will deliver those states………..well Obama has about four states that voted republican last election that she can't delivery ……NC…..SC……Virgina, and alot of southern states……..so we will see………I would love to see an Obama/Mc Cain debate come fall……..
Go democrats Obama/ Hillary supporter

Hilliary is a supper delegate we need her vote and support.I hope she is not committed yet.Hilliary don't worry they VP is for you,just drop out as uncommitted supper delegate we need your endorsement .Thanks in advance

In Nov the Clinton supporters do not have to vote for McCain- unless you believe he is the best candidate.

You can request an absentee ballot and write in Hillary Clinton. That way you get to vote for the best candidate and have your vote count.

Smart American People,
BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY! If someone like Obama only worked in government for 3 years and tried to be the president, WHAT A JOKE!
The world is laughing at us. America is really lost.

The only person can get American Image back is Hillary Clinton! The world will respect America again.

GO HILLARY! YOU ARE REAL GOLD, YOU SHINE NO MATTER WHAT!

CNN, PLEASE POST THIS!!!!

Here's what I don't get. People who are supporting Hillary and claim to be Democrats say they will vote for McCain or stay home if Obama is the candidate. Why in the world would you vote for someone you absolutely know will continue the policies of the current administration if you claim to be a Democrat?! Obama's views are quite similar to Hillary's and their experience is also fairly similar (she was First Lady, not President - big difference). The only remaining explanation is race.

The main difference for me in this primary season has been attitude. Hillary has been very negative and willing to throw her own party members under the bus for the sake of a nomination. It makes me wonder what she would do in the White House. We already have a President who disregards the will of the people when making decisions and it seems Hillary would do the same.

You need to decide whether you will continue to support the ideals of the Democratic party by voting for the final nominee in November, or sulk and allow the Republicans to continue their destruction just because you didn't get your way. Same goes for Obama supporters claiming they won't support Hillary. This is really what her campaign has done to the party - reduced everyone to "my side - your side" politics, when we're all on the same side!

This me be a revelation to some but, "hard working" does not necessarily equal "white" americans.

WOW, WOW, WOW I hope someone is checking her blood pressure. She looks tired, and stressed. I really have lost respect for the way she has campaigned against her fellow democrat, and the undertone or rather overtone on some of her latest comments, but I'm seriously starting to wonder if she is physically ok? She is spinning like a whirling dirvish, enough to give anyone a headache, elevated BP, or make them somewhat dizzy. I think all Obama supporters like myself should just be very very quiet, and let her finish whatever she is doing. We need to all need to come together as democrats and all the name calling and gloating really does not help either side. (Yes i'm talking to you too Sharon from Minn). Please someone explain why in pursuit of her win she would turn down getting 10 extra delegates over Obama in MI because she wanted 73 instead of 69. That is only a 4 delegate difference. That does not jive with her concern for their voices being heard in MI. Just wondering??

Wow, I'm convinced she wants to destroy the party. This is not right for her to continue on like this. Someone need to put a stop to her games. She is trying to get into white america's head. In a sense, they don't realize she is putting them down.

Interesting that she would be the nominee using the Republican rules. She would be the nominee had Florida and Michigan been counted. And still Obama supporters come onto this blog and call her names and act like she is some kind of monster.

Obama supporters have turned me and many others to the McCain camp.

For those of you who are saying you will vote for McCain if Obama gets the nomination, I just want to share with you the same message Donna Brazil so succinctly put it in her response to a bunch of Clinton supporters sending threatening e mails to supers saying they will vote for John McCain:

So I believe you're ready to not only destroy Roe versus Wade, voting rights, civil liberties and civil rights. Perhaps adding trillions more to the deficits through non-stop tax cuts to the wealthy and 100 more years in Iraq. Yes, please join Rush and McCain asap. The train has left. Catch it.""

To vote for a man who will continue the failed policies of GW Bush because your feelings are hurt or you think it is unfair your candidate did not get the nomination, then I say "GET OVER IT" The state of our country is a much bigger issue than any one person's hurt feelings. Sheesh. We all need to act like grown ups and get over it.

Look at all the Republicans on here pretending to be Democrats. I'm talking about those of you who say you"ll vote for McCain in the fall over Obama. You're just like Clinton, republicans in disguise. Go ahead, take your little ballots and vote for the party that has turned America into a third world country. Vote for the five-dollar-a-gallon-of-gas party. The lie-your-way-into-an-illegal-war party. The party of the worthless dollar. You'll lose with McCain, just like you've lost with Clinton. You losers deserve each other.

Why does the media not take up HIllary Clinton's comments on "uncolleged voters being her main supporters"? They jumped all over Barack Obama's "Bitter" comments when all he said was the truth.
Dont the voters that supported Clinton even flinch that she should make such comment………I would if I had voted for her.

From an Outside observer
Les

I am really tired of hearing people say "He can't win in the general elections". There is a big difference between "He can't win" and "I don't want him to win". Do you really think Hillary stands a chance in the general election if Obama supporters take the same stand that Hillary supporters are taking now? Ask yourself that question. Both candidates can easily win the generals if they had the full backing of the democratic party. If you are really voting for what Hillary stands for (and not the person Hillary), how can you stomach voting for McCain?

She is Arrogant!

Talk about playing the Race card to divide the Democratic Party!!!!

I say, let her continue to campaign…..Perhaps the women that follow or support her will truly get the BIG PICTURE!!!

McCain looks better every day…………………………….

Look at the numbers–in all categories. Look at the polls that suggest approximately 60% of the public does not trust her.

Look at how many HRC backers have switched to Obama. How many Obama backers have switched to HRC?

I don't understand how she is able to make a case that she is more electable.

They say let her finish the race and according to the numbers, whether or not she gets FL and MI, in effect, the race is over, isn't it?

If Senator Clinton would change and run as an independent, she would be our next president.

One of the main reasons I won't vote for Obama is the meanness, nasty, down right cruel comments from his supporters regarding Senator Clinton. Other reasons include he is not at qualified, he is arrogant, both he and his wife ooze a sense of entitlement, plus their radical beliefs. He can come across as the nice guy since his supporters do all the back stabbing for him.

I repeat . . . If Senator Clinton would change and run as an independent, she would be our next president.

I have voted since 1970……..first Presidential election in 1972. This feeble excuse by Hillary Supporters to the Super Delegates about unelectibility is RIDICULUS. REP. Schultz ( which is my last name ) is even nuttier. We should not let a bunch of disappointed supporters add anymore fuel to this. Rep Schultz where were you when these rules, which candidate agreed to, were being voted on?? You should be ashamed of cramming your candidate down our throats ……after the fact!!!! How weak are you as a congress person.?? You had better put things back into perspective or I fear you will be a soccer mom sooner than you might like. It is hard to win against a tidal wave young lady. Think about the rest of us not your new career. SELFISH !!! Shame on you

For all you Hillary supports who will vote for McCain…

… great job. You'll be signing the death sentances for all the men and women who are going to be part of our seemingly endless wars.

Hillary has the SUPPORT of Military GENERALS and ENDORSEMENT of TWO former CHIEF OF STAFF. What do you think of that?

Gore lost in 2000 in Florida, it was the vote of men and women in uniform that made Bush won in 2000. Our men and women in uniform are NOT polled, but these group of people ALWAYS have an IMPACT in GENERAL ELECTION.

Hillary you are pathetic! You are trying too hard……let it go please, save the little respect and dignity you have left. This your Kitchen-Sink Campaign has been a failure. Honestly B, what is your goal? Is it to make Obama unelectable in November? Its time you graciously withdraw before we carry you and throw you out! Congratulation Obama, we are almost home!

Our President Obama 08’ & 12’

Hillary and Bill's true colors are showing. I am so ashamed of them. I will never vote for her.

I hope the voters of New York remember how she has carried her self throughout this nomination process.

I sure wouldn't want her representing me as one of only
