		<description>I have to say, I&#039;m really really sick of the priority given to conservative and moderate Democrats the past 25 years... what about all of the more liberal and progressive Democrats that USED to matter, that reshaped the party, and helped bring civil rights and medicare during the 50s, 60s, and 70s?  You know, the ones who voted for Nader and clearly can also influence an election?  I have never voted third party or abstained in an election before, but Obama is the first time I have ever felt my belief system (which, as an American, is just as important as any other&#039;s) represented.  And no, it&#039;s not &#039;cause he&#039;s a crazy leftie, because he&#039;s actually not... he&#039;s quite moderate in his voting record.  It&#039;s his tone, his rhetoric, his intergrity, his belief in a better America.  You may not want to admit that there are people out there that are environmentalists, or radical feminists, or gay and transgender rights supporters, but you know what, we are here and we vote too.  Stop acting like it&#039;s okay if we drop off the party&#039;s agenda (hell, the country&#039;s agenda) and only that of close-minded &quot;Democrats&quot; matter.</description>

		<description>There are bigots and racists in the democratic party.  A good portion of Hillary supporters fall into this catagory.  They should join the republican party and vote for McCain.  At least their views and beliefs will be rewarded.

Don&#039;t be a wolf in sheep&#039;s clothing.  If your racist attitude prevents you from voting for a honest man with integratity and family values(Obama that is) and your pathological lier is loosing this nomination, then go vote for the old man McCain.  Don&#039;t say it here!  Do it!</description>

		<description>Congrats Hillary  you got a one more super-delegate today.  John Edwards join the push for Hillary to win this nomination. You can be like Teddy Kennedy and vote for the real best candidate, only hopefully you will vote for what is really is needed for this country. Hillary Clinton. You don&#039;t have too worry about empty threats of losing the votes from N.C. because you don&#039;t hold office there anyway. Be smart like your wife and use good judgement and vote for the Hillary insted of this do nothing Democrat Barack Obama .  This is one candidate who will vote for a person not because of party but because of expeiriance of which Obama has none. And as for Collin Powell endorsing Obama what would you expect. Once again skin tone gets the vote from looking alike instead of experiance.  Go Hillary or vote for McCain</description>

		<description>Hillary really did not care about Michigan and Florida till she started losing. She is such a flip flopper. She did not agree to the split Michigan proposed 69 del for her and 59 del for Obama.  It has to be Hill&#039;s way or the highway, why is that?</description>

You really can&#039;t say Obama is stealing this from Hillary. It wasn&#039;t hers in the first place
 **********************************************************************

And yet you hypocrite obamians have been talking about her stealing something that wasn&#039;t obamas...this is exactly the type of hypocrisy you and your candidate have been spewing all along, which is why I will be voting a full Republican slate in November!

Tear the Party down is what you have done and I will help finish it off in November.  Then maybe we can rebuild a more middle of the road Dem. Party or form a 3rd party with moderates from both parties.

Not making a radical left turn with an arrogant condescending lying hypocrite racist.  Enjoy your landslide loss in November!!</description>

		<description>To Hillary supporter who said DNC lost her the nomination because of Michigan and Florida.  Remember Hillary agreed to those rules when she thought she was appointed by GOD for the nomination and she did not ask for the rule change until she starting losing.  Obama did not oppose a revote, but you certainly can&#039;t say Hillary won Michigan when Obama was not even listed on the ticket.  Losers always have an excuse and if you vote for McCain, you&#039;re just as much the cause of the nation&#039;s problems as Bush and the republicans are.</description>

		<description>I am truely amazed that so many people will vote for McCain.  What has he shown you.  He may have went against the Bush administration iniatially but now he has changed his mind for political purposes.  Does this not bother you.  

Clinton supporters are so angry about MI and Fl.  If you do the math, even with her delegate count in FL an MI, by the votes, she still will be far behind in every aspect.  Stop trying to use this as the reason why you will not vote for Obama.

I would rather go with the will of the people and lose in November than to give the nomination to someone that can not and has not won it outright.  

Clinton supporters need to realize if they vote for John they will most likely be be the ones that will be hurt from his candidacy.  The so called &quot;Eggheads (Educated Voters) will have an easier time getting jobs and living throught the horrible years, but those on the lower end will be hurt.  

Remeber our families are those people, everyone has a struggling member, our soldiers deserve more.  Please come to your senses.  Let go of the angry past and look to the positive future.</description>

As for Al Sharpton I am tired of him and his comments</description>

		<description>Hillary Supporter,

I agree with you. If the superdelegates don&#039;t wait till the end. I don&#039;t get why the democrats have the superdelegates anyway. It&#039;s like we voters don&#039;t have a mind of our own.</description>

		<description>We say &quot;We are one nation under God&quot;. Then what is wrong with this nation. We holler for CHANGE and CHANGE is staring everyone of us in the face!! And we are doing NOTHING, but bickering about Clinton and Obama. As every person has stated in the comments. If you are going to vote for Hillary do it. But don&#039;t say If she doesn&#039;t  get the nominee; You are going to give your vote to McCain.  He is old and already set in his ways and he is NOT for change. I am a democrate and I support Senator Barack Obama.. In the word of God, He states &quot;If my people that are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray. And seek my face,and turn from their evil ways. Then I (God) will hear from Heaven and will answer their prayers....... He&#039;s listening and He has sent Barack and we as a Nation has rejected Him!!!!</description>

		<description>Can we stop being so negative? How can people seriously call themselves democrats out of one side of their mouths, and then claim that they will cast a vote in November to prolong the war, privatize social security, bring in Supreme Court Justices who McCain says WILL overturn women&#039;s and civil rights -- just because the democrat you favored did/would/might not make it this time? 

You can&#039;t be this short-sighted; I don&#039;t care which Dem you&#039;re currently backing.</description>

		<description>So what, he will probably win the nomination.  Too bad he won&#039;t win the general election.  He&#039;s making the republicans job way too easy.  Look, if he could win the general election, the primary season wouldn&#039;t have gone on this long already, Clinton would have been out long ago.  Not to mention his lack of support in critical swing states, and lack of effort to do anything for Florida and Michigan to seat their delegates.  Apparently he isn&#039;t a big picture guy if he can&#039;t realize that without those 2 states, you can&#039;t get anywhere in the general election.</description>

		<description>Whether anyone likes it or not,  the people of this country voted for Obama like they have for Hillary.  The people have spoken not Obama himself. So when you speak you act like Obama has done some act of declaration on his own???? Character.. well lets see Mr. McClain divorced his first wife while she was dying of cancer while having an affair with his current wife.. OOOOH yeah for all you that have a problem with Obama&#039;s race.. Did you know Mr. McClain made the statement &quot;it happened 8 years ago&quot; as a response he had an affair with a black woman and OMG has a bi-racial child with the woman, dang bi-racial like Obama... So for you McClain going good Hillary supporters who won&#039;t go for Barak, the black man so you say totally forgetting his mother was white,  will go for a man who laid down with a Black Woman and produced the same kind of child. If and When that comes out... how you going to feel then.. ?????  I guess that is why Hillary and McClain stick to the issues when referring to each other... The wife of the impeached cheating husband speaks of sound policy huh.. If Hillary runs for pres. and gets the nomination, the GOP Will literally DESTROY HER. Thank God Obama is doesn&#039;t engage in dirty politics cause if the news continued to show McClain&#039;s half black child 24/7, he would lose a ton of supporters... who knows he might leave Cindy like he left his last wife and marry a black woman,,, still have a black first lady.. ha ha.. This whole election is funny when you know the truth.. to see how the american public selects what it wants to believe and hear.. OH Yeah did I mention Rev. Hagee the anti-catholic preacher that is endorsing McClain.. Unmmmmmmmmmm I have listened to his sermons here in Houston on TV as he speaks how America will be punished for it&#039;s immorality,,, like Rev. Wright, only thing he is white so I guess as always that makes it alright.. perhaps you should turn your cable channels on Sunday and check Hagee out for yourselves instead of listening to everything the media says.. get the whole picture.</description>

The wife of the impeached cheating husband speaks of sound policy huh.. If Hillary runs for pres. and gets the nomination, the GOP Will literally DESTROY HER. Thank God Obama is doesn't engage in dirty politics cause if the news continued to show McClain's half black child 24/7, he would lose a ton of supporters... who knows he might leave Cindy like he left his last wife and marry a black woman,,, still have a black first lady.. ha ha.. This whole election is funny when you know the truth.. to see how the american public selects what it wants to believe and hear.. OH Yeah did I mention Rev. Hagee the anti-catholic preacher that is endorsing McClain.. Unmmmmmmmmmm I have listened to his sermons here in Houston on TV as he speaks how America will be punished for it's immorality,,, like Rev. Wright, only thing he is white so I guess as always that makes it alright.. perhaps you should turn your cable channels on Sunday and check Hagee out for yourselves instead of listening to everything the media says.. get the whole picture.</p>

		<description>It ceases to amaze me how even seasoned pols can be swayed by senseless rhetoric.  I can see how the common man can be lead to believe in this whole &quot;change&quot; mantra but you would think that the politicos would know better.  Keep it up Democrats and a third party will reside in the White House before one of your own.  Hillary Clinton is still the only Democrat with even the slightest chance of winning the Nov election and affecting any kind of change.  Obama and McCain have one thing in common....they are not going to be good for this nation.</description>

		<description>i think it&#039;s a terrible shame for we as americans to not stand together for whomever the nominee is.  and for the young lady who is a hiliary supporter and all the others, why are u holding Obama responsible for the disaster in fl and mi, their governors were the ones who did not follow the rules.  and u hold such hate in your hearts that u would rather see another repub in the white house...and u call yourselves adults but act like children...your way or no way i guess</description>

		<description>Hey HILLARY SUPPORTER,

The DNC did not punish the people of Michigan and Florida.  Their local govt did by moving up their primary.  Which is against the rules.  All the other state played by the rules so should they.</description>

Thank God it&#039;s not Hillary up against McCain, then I wouldn&#039;t have anyone to vote for! Is McCain the best the Republicans can do? Sad...</description>

		<description>The Democrats NEED TO COME TOGETHER! God how many times must we say this? If we stop being so BLIND we would realize we need a democrat in the office or we will see McCain running Bush&#039;s third term. I understand that we may want our candidate to win but if push comes to shove and it doesn&#039;t happen, don&#039;t give up and cry about it. Vote in November whether it&#039;s for Obama or Hillary. I am a Obama supporter but if he doesn&#039;t clinch the nomination I will be behind Hillary. We need to stop all of the bickering and look at the issues here at hand. As someone stated above, are the gas prices not high enough? Food prices not high enough? I mean our economy is in the worst shape ever since I&#039;ve been on this earth thanks to Bush.

I can&#039;t understand how ANYONE could support McCain but then again the Americans did vote Bush in for a second term. Stupidity at it&#039;s finest.

Please don&#039;t be stupid again.</description>

		<description>I cant believe how stupid Barrack Obummers supporters are. Do you idiots not realize he will never win a general election? Why support someone for the Presidency that cant win it. At least Clinton had a chance against McCain.  Obummer has no chance to be elected, he may well win the democratic nomination, but he will never become president. All the ranting and raving by you fools is all for naught.</description>

		<description>Look, Obama is a uniter, not a divider.  With all that Hillary tried to crush his campaign and make herself look good, she didn&#039;t win with her old political tactics, which is why we need Obama.  He stood with many chances to really get down and dirty.  The sniper fire.  An outright lie and she said it was because she was exhuasted, but if she&#039;s that exhausted, who will answer that 3am phone call?  Why did Obama wait so long to denounce Rev. Wright?  Because he is a uniter and wanted to give the Rev. the benefit of the doubt and because he has been going to that church for 20 yrs. (Married there, children baptized, etc.  I&#039;m sure Obama tried to talk w/the Rev. and then when Rev. Wright came out again, Obama had no choice but to denounce him.  Obama&#039;s judgement is a lot to be desired.  He won without playing dirty politics, with having racial slams like Hamas thrown at him to inexperience to Rev. Wright.  Hillary, we know that your true reason for wanting to win is for fame and power and you will do anything to get nominated.  If Obama had the clout, speaking of (Bill Clinton) and daughter to travel around the country to support him, I&#039;m sure Hillary would have said over and over again, well of course I didn&#039;t have that support, just like she speaks of the money that Obama outspends her 3 - 1 and exagerates the numbers of everything brought up as her supporters do.  As far as Hillary&#039;s voters, not voting for Obama in the fall, they show poor sportsmanship and are as bad as Hillary is.  How are we to be united when you have voters saying they would rather vote for McCain if Hillary is not nominated.  It&#039;s totally childish.  I am very disappointed in the people of America.  Obama rocks!  He sticks to the rules.  He will make a GREAT AND HISTORICAL PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA.</description>

Wake up people.......neither of these are worth the Presidency of the USA.  And for all of you students who have taken this country to its knees with liberal ideas, wait until you get a job (if you are able) and have to pay taxes under either of these two candidates !  You&#039;ll certainly  want CHANGE then !</description>

		<description>And for the people who keep saying Obama can&#039;t win the states that he didn&#039;t win against Hillary (NY, CA, OH, PA..just to name a few) which would be his downfall if he does get the nomination in November, let me say this- If we all COME TOGETHER, HE COULD BEAT MCCAIN! It&#039;s just as simple as that. Stop being so divided!!! Let&#039;s put all our differences aside and think about not only how most of us are struggling to get by due to the outrageous gas and food prices but let&#039;s think of OUR CHILDREN! Every decision made now will affect them later on down in life. 

As for the FL &amp; MI matter....

I believe there should be NO revote for FL and MI. Follow the rules and you won&#039;t have to deal with the suffering consequences. NOBODY forced them to push their primary dates ahead. I&#039;m still tripping off that ish, how can you break the rules but cry when you&#039;re punished for it? That&#039;s insane.</description>

The disenfranchised voters in Florida and Michigan will make their voices heard in November thanks to the stupid DNC!!!</description>

		<description>For those, including Sen. Obama, who persist in the notion that, by electing Sen. McCain, we are maintaining the status quo by continuing the Bush legacy, I must strongly disagree.  His entire life, John McCain has exhibited the character traits of independence and nonconformity.  Such attributes have not always been appreciated by those around him.  Exemplified by his trials by fire as a prisoner of war in Vietnam, he came to the realization that his life should be dedicated to a cause greater than himself - that of serving the country he loves - and to do so regardless of the personal risk.  As a consequence, his political career has been unconventional and unorthodox, which again has upset many, including those within his own party.  Sen. McCain has his share of flaws, but even his critics begrudgingly admit that being his own man is not one of them.

		<description>Once Obama overtakes Hillary&#039;s superdelegate count, she is psychologically finished.  Of Course, like her cat, Socks, Hillary also has nine lives.</description>

		<description>I do not understand the logic of those Clinton supporters who say they will vote Republican should she fail to win the nomination.
Where is their loyalty to the Democratic party and all it represents?</description>

		<description>To the Hillary Supporter that stated that the Clinton supporters will never vote for Obama, it is a sad day when people forget the many reason for us to put a nominee Democrat into the Whitehouse. 

Rules are Rules.   It’s not like HRC and the voters in these two states didn’t know before they made this decision.  

I’m sure you know like the rest of us and understand, rules are put into place for a legit reason, thank God someone knew one day someone whom proclaim to love our Country and is a true Democrat would try to change them to benefit his or her own needs.

You have shown me you mean what you say and say what you mean, you have me and my family vote Obama…………..</description>

		<description>Obama will not win the election.  It doesn&#039;t matter who flip flops over to his side.

Rezko, the Reverend Wright connection, his wife&#039;s remarks, his lack of experience and his poor debate skills are going to destroy him.  

McCain is an old pro who knows exactly what he&#039;s talking about, AND he&#039;s pretty consistent.  He will nail Obama to the ground.  Hilary is a great debater and she&#039;s not afraid of McCain.  She could have won this.  But once again, Dems are shooting themselves in the foot, which is just fine with me.</description>

		<description>All you Dems voting for McCain, I don&#039;t want to hear a word or see one sad eye when there is a draft for this stupid war, and your child, husband, brother, or uncle is sent to Iraq.. 
Don&#039;t let your anger skew your judgement! Lets all be smart for a change and unite.. is that so foreign to us?? Hilary even said do not vote for McCain.. if you support her, support her views!
Please drink some happy juice and rid yourself from this spiteful spirit brewing within.

		<description>Maybe not all, but I think the vast majority of Hillary&#039;s supporters will vote for Obama in November.  All he has to do is focus hard on the issues.  The biggest one that I think people are forgetting is:

Abortion  

It will be illegal if another republican wins the white house.  In the next 8 years, two and maybe even 3 supreme court justices will be chosen.  And the oldest justices right now are the liberal ones.  I don&#039;t think any democrat, no matter how angry, wants to risk that.</description>

		<description>I am sorry I just can&#039;t vote for Obama and it is not because Hillary is not the candidate.   from what I have been reading, you Obama supporters are not going to vote if she is the candidate.  Who is calling the kettle black.   

I am not voting for McCain because Hillary won&#039;t be the candidate.  I am voting for him because I feel he can unite the country and he has experience.   

Obama supporters are doing more to hurt him then anyone else.  Your comments are very hateful.  You people are turning us off.  

I vote for whom I think will do the best job.  He still has alot to learn and his wife has to learn to be proud to be American no matter who is running.  I just can&#039;t see her as First Lady.</description>

		<description>CNN, do you have any hint of journalistic integrity left?

Using words like &#039;defect&#039; on your front page to describe the motion of a superdelegate away from Hillary Clinton is atrocious.  Defect is a word that has connotations to traitorous actions, where in fact no such traitorous actions are apparent.  Attaching such words with such connotations makes for a subversive subconscious attack on the character of Barack Obama.

Plain and simple, Hillary Clinton won the support of this superdelegate.  Then, she lost it.  Please do not denigrate the character of this superdelegate for changing their mind.</description>

		<description>As one geriatric to another Geriatric, all of you Obama rah-rahs should know that the sooner your knight in shining armor is declared the Democratic Party candidate, that&#039;s how soon you will begin to witness to the opposing party attack and destroy him.  And to all of you who  call us &quot;Clinton disgruntled losers,&quot; you should know that we&#039;re not voting for McCain because we&#039;re disgruntled, it&#039;s because we know who is more experienced and qualified.  We&#039;ve learned our lesson:  No more rookies in the highest office of the land.  And we&#039;re not Republicans either; we&#039;re independent in thought and decision.  That&#039;s the beauty of this country; we are free to make a choice, so you make yours, we&#039;ll make ours.</description>
