Welcome aboard the Obama Express, next stop 1600 Pennsylvania Ave. Please take your seat, place your tray tables in their full upright positions, and please remain seated until we have reached a safe cruising altitude.

Obama '08 Yes We Can!

Obama nominee = McCain presidency

Race is an issue….just as his campaign and supporters suggest that age is an issue. Is this racism…is this agism? Is it "All's Fair" or is it negative campaigning? I guess it is in the eye of the beholder.

*deep sigh*
Is it over yet?

anyone here who thinks that any of the candidates can do anything about the economy, war, gas prices, etc. is a fool….

I beleive Obama will make a great president. He is for the people.
Clinton is just for clinton. My opinion is she wants power.

ok if Clinton has 267 superdelegates and obama 250 isn't the difference 17 and not 7? maybe I read the article incorrectly…..

Where did CNN learn maths? The difference between 267 and 250 is seventeen, not seven.

Obama will never get my vote. I will now vote for mccain

Sen. Obama is a brilliant, gifted statesman. He is the obvious choice for President at this time in American political history. He has the potential to be one of the great ones.

Knowing everything you now know about the man … you folks are still choosing BHO. I can only say : The beginning of the end of America, the great … the nation I admired from afar.

Let's get past the anger Hillary supporters and do what's best for the country/ Stop blaming Obama for the mistakes FL and Michigan made. Unite the party if you are a real Democrat. Don't cut off your nose to spite your face.

It is so simple. With all her heart Hillary will go to support her old friend Obama. Her strongest wish it is to avoid a GOP President.

Hey "Go ahead- it's not Nov yet", go ahead and protest the DNC with your vote in November and if McCain wins I will be thinking of you when the US falls into a depression. You're only hurting yourself by taking such actions… grow up already!

I'd rather vote McCain and pay higher gas prices than to vote for Obama! If not Hillary, then McCain. This country is NOT ready to be ran by one such as Obama!

Whoopie!

This must be the avalanche of support he gets for winning one out of two primaries. Soon I might have to go to my left hand to count the delegates racing obama's way

America, the land of equal opportunity,the land of dreaming, the creator of modern demorcracy. Some of your children still sound undemorcratic. If you actually have demorcratic values, you should be thinking of unification and rally support for your party.

The Clinton's have been good for our country. We cannot dispute the great economy of the 1990's. But, it is time for HOPE Obama. He is brilliant and will gain world respect for America once again. Our economy is about equal to the 1929 Depression. Obama will be the second FDR! Go Obama! We need you!

Obama will be the next President because the country do need change. That's why he's been winning so far, that's why he's going to win in November.

Alfredo May 8th, 2008 5:08 pm ET

You are sooo clever! Stop the whinning!

Would somebody tell Obama to please not to look like he is about to fall asleep when he answers question. He needs a speech therapist so bad.

It seems like every time Hillary gets behind or loses a state she tries to go after those votes in Michigan and Florida. I'm tired of hearing about that. That's a done deal. Give up HIllary! You can't win!

GO OBAMA!

This is history in the making Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. Would be proud of this moment. I say "Go Obama Go!"

The next story we'll hear next will headline, "Obama leads in superdelegates…..Clinton concedes to unify the party."

I apologize for my previous comment, it was immature, yes. I apologize.

Indeed, let us unite and come together for the cause of change, enough is enough, kick the conservatives out before it becomes too late.

As Twisted Sister song goes….

"We're not gonna take it anymore!"

hilly is a BITTER LOOSER!!!!!!!!!!!!

one more time no Hillary not vote for Obama! EVER!

To those who say that Obaman can not win in November, I can only tell you that Hillary can't win in May!!!

Obama looks Presidential. This independent is looking for the 1st time voting for a Democrat. Just for Obama.

Breaking news …………. therapy sessions for die-hard Clinton supporters are sold out…..everywhere , next best place to book one…………… Ontario Canada

To all the people who are hysterical because this is such a close race and their candidate may not be the one running against McCain. First, stop blaming the process. It's been here for decades first of all, and secondly all the candidates knew the rules from the start. Second, CALM DOWN!!! Don't lose sight of the prize itself. Think of your own idealogical reasons why you are a democratc in the first place. Do you really want to turn over this country to McCain because of being a poor loser? We are democrats, we are bigger than the bitterness that is being slung around here.

I am so ready for America to become color-blind … so we can all work together, for the good of our country!! We can do this in our lifetime … let's each just lead by example. The time is now!

God bless you and God bless our United States of America!!!

Chris Parks, Buffalo NY
(African-American)

It's a true shame that Hillary Rodham Clinton (HRC) supporters are soooo jealous, they are willing to vote Republican, just for the sake of destroying the party!! Maybe there is some truth to the fact that racism is still alive in 2008. Particulary, Richard Bell from Salem, NC…..why are you so bitter…..that a man, who just happens to be African-American, has displayed dignity, strength, and poise throughout this campaign; PARTICULARLY, since he was the true underdog in this race from the beginning!!

It's amazing how this man, who had to dignify a response based on what his pastor said, has come under fire….YET HRC, who has repeatedly lied to the American people (right-wing conspiracy, sniper fire, and please don't forget NAFTA……the only real reason for winning Ohio), can generate such support from supposedly smart, educated people. If she cannot be honest to the American people about her position on domestic issues, how can we trust this woman to be honest with our allies overseas? Futhermore, in her infamous speech today, just who is she referring to as "less educated"? As an college educated individual, I'm even appauled at this statement as no one is less worthy simply for the fact they do not have a college education.

If this shoe would have been on the other foot and Obama was behind in numbers (popular vote, pledged delegates, and the increasing support from Superdelegates) as like HRC, the the DNC would have not only told Obama to back out, they would have thrown him under a bus!! Please HRC supporters, just simply dignify yourselves as her attempting to run a good race, yet she fell short!

OBAMA '08!!!

Its amazing how some people can be so bitter and hateful!! Why would u vote for Mccain Just because you upset. Think about the bigger picture. Think about change! Think about a successful econmy!! Think about our soilders coming home!! Think about AMERICA!!!

OBAMA!!! The next president of our beloved country.

I strongly believe that Obama is the right one for the job. Not enough experience some say, well, look at what experience has gotten us during the last few yrs. I had been a McCain supporter, Never a Clinton supporter. What exeprience does Clinton bring, other than her knack for being a liar and an actress. Which by the way, appears to be a desirable attribute according to her supporters. Come on W Virginia, Kentucky and all other future primary states, vote Obama. You owe nothing to Clinton. Your precious jobs were kissed good bye-by her husband.

To Go ahead- it's not Nov yet - The really sad part of this whole election is the discovery of truly selfish voters like you who would rather vote for a Republican in November than the candidate that YOUR party chooses fair and square - there's no conspiracy here except the one that you are trying to create. At the end of the day all primary contests will be resolved and the delegates of Florida and Michigan will be seated. Fair and square. The question is: will you support the winner?

This has been an epic contest with two of the most amazing political figures to ever emerge from the American fabric. The usual complaint that people have is that there is no candidate that inspires anything and we're usually left with a bunch of truly unsatisfactory choices. Not this time! Whether it ends up being Hillary or Barack the potential of what they could do is truly incredible.

As a Canadian who is proud to share a common border with your great nation I say it's about time that you had a leader that chooses to look ahead with a worldview rather than just the usual myopic U.S. view. That myopic view adopted by your country for the past 8 years IS the reason why your economy is in shambles and is so ill-equipped to compete on the world stage. Aiding McCain, as honorable as he is, to become your next President will only prolong this situation. If you're willing to do that then you must not be concerned about making America great once again.

As the most powerful nation on this planet the United States of America IS the steward of the world we all share. Therefore we expect you to lead by example, gain trust by earning respect, and always be courageous enough to challenge what is not right, both around the world and in your own back yard. Now you have TWO incredible individuals that share one common trait - they can indeed rise above the past and claim the future by leading both your great country and the world. And in the midst of this potential for greatness - shared by both Clinton and Obama - you choose to disrespect their efforts by saying you'll vote Republican if your candidate is unable to win. How selfish is that?

You sound like one of "those" people - and we all know them - who, after a well fought contest would choose to destroy the prize for everyone rather than accept defeat with honor and make everyone stronger by adding their voice and strength to the champion. You don't sound like a true Democrat - true Democrats are never afraid of a fight, and when they do so they fight with integrity, and they never, ever jump ship - which is what you're preaching. You need to take a hard look at your logic and your allegiance. If you are really a Republican at heart I suggest you vote for McSame and stay one. If not then suck it up and support whomsoever your Party chooses. Isn't that supposed to be the Democratic way?

McCain benefits from the lack of a united democratic party. If I'm a true democrat, I have to vote for the nominee, be it Hillary or Obama. For me to say I'm going to teach the "corrupt" democratic establisment a thing or two with my vote for McCain in Nov., or by not voting at all is shortsighted.
This democratic race is like watching your favorite sports team in the playoffs. You want them to win at all costs, and it they don't, your going to root against the team that beat them, and your going to wnat the team that beat your team to lose in the big game. We all need to wake up and realize that this is not a sport, and the party that wins will have great impact on our day to day lives. It doesn't matter if you supprt Obama or Hillary, you need to vote for the democratic candidate. If you don't, then you have no right to complain about McCain when he wins, bacause you will ahve helped him to the oval office.

Realistically, this circus we call a political system today is so far from what our forefathers envisioned, its a joke. But it is also our reality.

Lead, follow or get out of the way———–

Yahoo way to go Obama!!!!

"YES WE CAN' YES WE CAN UNITE WE CAN DO THIS WE CAN COME TOGETHER.

THE AMERICA WE LOVE IS READY TO ROLL TO THE TOP AGAIN. SO GET ON BOARD EVERYBODY THE LOVE TRAIN IS COMING THROUGH.

LOVE AND PEACE TO ALL YOU ARE WORTH IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I find it very interesting and comical that as Obama takes the D ticket, both Hillary and McCains supporters throw their toys afar from their cot and in so doing denouncing CNN coverage as bias. CNN has always been and always will be right on the money, totally unbiased and spells out the story as it is, well done CNN ! You certainly have my vote. These people that threaten to leave the D Party, to stop watching CNN, we dont want people like you anyway ! For everyone of you, there are 2 others waiting in the wings and for good reason, most people want a candidate that can change the landscape, a candidate with honour and judgement. Not interested in the person that can throw the most nasties ! Obama, you are the man ! President OBAMA, WOW. Watch the US become accountable, watch the whitehouse change for the better, watch the rest of the world give the US another chance ! The international community see the US as a joke now, only Obama can change this, not Hillary, not McCain.

Look forward to Obama taking charge from day 1 !

What's so stunning is the fact that the Hillary Supporters are still saying add in Michigan and Florida. Fine, but O'bama will still have the lead in delegates and most likely the superdelegates so then what? Come up with another sorry reason to say O'bama and his thugs ( VERY RACIST)
are disenfranchising the people? I think most of you are cold hearted individuals who don't think ALL MEN ARE CREATED EQUAL. I feel sorry for you.

the bickering i see on the clinton side of these comments remind me of way back in the seventies and little league base ball parents - loud and obnoxious - not seeing the bigger picture - stop with the gripping - this isnt a game its our lives and the lives of children at stake here - suck it up and lets stick together - and then we can - obama 08

And The train keeps on going down the track - welcome aboard! Obama 08!

Brian May 8th, 2008 8:39 pm ET

To Hillary supporters:

Popular vote count:
Obama = 16,260,355
Clinton = 15,439,769

Will you not honor the votes of Americans?????
****************************

NOT UNTIL YOU HONOR OUR FELLOW CITIZENS IN FLORIDA AND MICIGAN WHOM OBAMA AND HIS THUGS ARE DISENFRANCHISING..

ASK YOURSELF BRIAN,"WILL YOU HONOR THE AMERICAN WAY'?

I have never been too involved in politics before but I felt compelled to weigh in on the democratic race. I have been a life long democrat and fully support the decision to not count the votes in Michigan and Florida despite pressure from Hillary Clinton.

If we are the democratic nation we proclaim to be, we must follow the established rules set in place and not change them when it is convenient to do so. Further, if we change the rules to satisfy one person who cannot accept the will of the people, how can we respect ourselves as a people and a nation when we demand other nations follow democratic processes?

It is unfortunate that Michigan and Florida did not follow the rules but as I must abide by the rules set forth in this voting process, so does everyone else.

I am a Pacific Isander. I've only been casually "reading "American election news over the years. However, with Obama being the democratic Presidential Nominee, I‘ve been stung by the Obamania fever that has stung a lot of educated and young voters in the US.

GO OBAMA

Port Moresby
Papua New Guinea

OBAMA/EDWARD 08

READ THIS DEMOCRATS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Quoted by Concern Democrats "Those democrats that feel the need to support McCain are only hurting themselves. If Obama lose, he'll go back to the senate and he'll be alright. However, will you be OK with a failing economy, a continue war in Iraq, health care unresolved, conservative justices, etc…"

LETS ALL UNITE & STOP THIS BITTERNESS ….!!!!

Quoted by FACINGREALITY

IMHO - Those who are continually spouting that they will vote for McCain if Hllary is not the candidate are really Republicans who are trying to cause havoc like pill popping, should be in jail for writing illegal prescriptions Rush Lumbaugh. There is not a rational Democrat would could possibly believe that McCain will serve their best interest in the White House, with 2 Supreme Court Justices awaiting appointment, a continuation of the tax cuts for the rich, waterboarding, not wanting to talk to our enemies, gas at 4.00 dollars a gallon, milk at 4.00 a gallon, 2 dollars for eggs - COME ON!

I trust in America and I am a DEMOCRAT and even though I don't like Hillary - loved Bill - I would take a grandchild to the voting booth and let her push the button but I would NEVER give Bush a third term. That type of mentality is the reason we are in Iraq and allowed the GREENEST PRESIDENT to slip through our hands when we let lying Bush in for a second term. I vote for the best interest of my family and Obama is getting the support of the Party which says alot about their belief that he is the YES WE CAN President.

It is time for WE THE PEOPLE TO COUNT and WE WANT OUR HOUSE BACK!

For all of you Clinton supporters who are hell bent on voting for McCain, when your son or daughter or grandson or granddaughter comes home in a body bag from Iraq, I hope you take great comfort in knowing that by pulling the lever for McCain you also share responsiblity for killing your kids and grandkids.

Bring the boys home, bring them back alive.

Obama 08

Sad…..

Watch your back Senator. When she's not a happy camper she goes bullistic, and a little raw. We know you can take it because you've weathered the Hillary storm before.

Obama 08, a nominee that will make me proud.

Hey, There is a typo in the this story and should be corrected : You wrote: "The two endorsements bring Clinton's advantage over Obama among superdelegates down to seven, according to CNN's estimate; Clinton has the backing of 267 superdelegates, while Obama has 250." But according to the story Obama has 260 and not 250.

Why are people so angry with Obama just because he rose to the occasion?
No one hated the New York Giants when they outplayed the inevitable New England Patriots. It happens! People usually respect the winner.

Does it amaze any follower of the Political Race that now at this point, that it appears Senator Obama may have a real shoot at becoming the President of the United States of America, that the real fear of those White Americans that are still caught up in FEAR of their old stereo type beliefs, are afraid that Mr. Obama will be the first Black Man to be Commander and Chief of the United States.

Just the very mentioned of these comments have some in this country who are still living in the past like Rev Wright.

It is clear that the Media is also in collusion to do this SPIN attack on Mr. Obama.

Listen closely my fellow Americans to how the issues and interviews with Mr. Obama is being framed by some of the most visible Media Anchors.

If it was not for the Freedom of Speech, we as Political Bloggers would not have had a forum to express these views.

Yes, there are many Blogs that are just the core center of many Americans fears, traditions, and out dated belief. You can call it an Apple all day long, but after you eat it, it is still and will always be an Orange.

Look for the take down because it is coming. This is what Mr. Obama was referring too.

Yes, refer to this Blog; the Clinton’s will steal the White House. I hate to say such things, but look at the behavior of the Clintons and the Republicans. They are going to work together to bring down Mr. Obama. This is why Mr. Obama will not commit to offering Ms. Clinton the Vice Presidency.

The sad part is the Clinton’s who want to ignore the wishes of all the voters and States that have voted for Senator Barak Obama.

Yes, they are saying “How dare this country pick inexperience Black Man over the former First Lady of the White House”. They are prepared to keep Mr. Obama from being President, you better believe it. And for you Hillary Supporters, they really don’t care if you lose your homes, jobs, or economy. Why? Hmmm, maybe because a young Black Man who has only been a Senator for 4 years is the choice of the people.

WOW what a Democracy we call America.

United We Stand, Divided We Fall

I see comments here about delegates being traitors for doing their job, and Hillary supporters getting revenge in November if she loses. This is really poor thinking and I guess the party really doesn't need this kind of supporter. I'll bet they scream the loudest if John McCain wins.

Congrats Senator, you deserve the nomination. You held your head up high, and did not let the Clinton machine wear you down.

That faint cry from across the way is Hillary being Hillary–selfish to the end.

Obama 08

Sen. Obama will be nominated.

THEN, will be loose for McCain…. WHAT THE BIG DEAL!!!

90% of the reason I'm voting for Obama is because of his foreign policy. Do we ignore the playground bully by not talking to him? Our foreign policy is in shambles and our reputation around the world is a disgrace! We need to stop being the bullies and listen to other points of view ~ not to agree with them, but to understand them so that we can work together to create a planet that works together to solve problemsl!

Go ahead- it's not Nov yet

Sure don't vote for Obama. Go ahead vote for a third Bush term. Vote for an overwhelming right wing majority on the Supreme Court. Go ahead vote for more war. Go ahead vote for no health care.

All because your precious feelings are hurt, you're willing to flip off the rest of America,

Sure..go ahead vote for more of the same.

To Hillary supporters:

Popular vote count:
Obama = 16,260,355
Clinton = 15,439,769

Will you not honor the votes of Americans?????

IMHO - Those who are continually spouting that they will vote for McCain if Hllary is not the candidate are really Republicans who are trying to cause havoc like pill popping, should be in jail for writing illegal prescriptions Rush Lumbaugh. There is not a rational Democrat would could possibly believe that McCain will serve their best interest in the White House, with 2 Supreme Court Justices awaiting appointment, a continuation of the tax cuts for the rich, waterboarding, not wanting to talk to our enemies, gas at 4.00 dollars a gallon, milk at 4.00 a gallon, 2 dollars for eggs - COME ON!

It is time for WE THE PEOPLE TO COUNT and WE WANT OUR HOUSE BACK!

Very disappointed with the democratic party. I am ready to go Independent

Go obama

Go Obama 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Only three weeks to go!!!!!!

Keep them coming obama, only down 7!

Once in a lifetime for what????? To bring Wright into the White House.

I'm starting to question the neutrality of Campbell Brown. Why can't she just report the news, and deal with the facts. Her views as a moderator are somewhat questionable. She provokes debates that are not even there for the oanel to discuss. What's going on CNN?

Yes we Can

yes yes

Obama 08

I'm so happy, but we still have a tough fight ahead of us. This will be a bitter campaign, but it is so worth it.

Obama 08

the writing is on the wall…..the presidency has been projected befor the election started i can see the future…

Dear Obama Supporters,

I am a huge Obama supporter and its about time we follow the example of our candidate and work on bringing all democrats to the fold. So NO more taunting and insulting of the Hillary supporters. Stand and help you man win.

Dear HIllary Supporters,

On behalf of all Obama supporters we apologise if we have offended you. Its time to get over on petty difference and do whats best for the country and back our Democratic candidate. I cannot stand to see one more freind lose and job, and house and have no insurance for a sick kid and see one of my freinds kids come home in a body bad from Iraq.

Lets all step up and unite and complete this task.

People, People, People..Some of you are acting like children having temper tantrums, i'ma vote for McBush if Hillary doesn't win..Wha? Give me a break. Stop being haters. I'ma Democrat. I want Obama in but if Hillary is in, she has my vote!! I'ma DEMOCRAT!! Dang crazy folks, they stand for 99% of the same thing…Why in the hell would you vote someone that differs and doesn't mind 100 years of war…..Yall gotta stop playin' and unite our party to defeat McBush in November. This is ridiculous!

Go ahead superdelgates make Hilliary's supporters angry, if you can wait for the primaries to end. Then you are the ones that will cause her supporters to vote for McCain or not to vote at all. Hilliary women for Mccain will unite.

Go Obama! We love!

He still will not win in November!

I saw Wolf interview Obama today. I must say there was no Wolf today, it was more of sheep. He seemed so much in awe of Obama that he forgot to ask any tough questions.

What happened to my comment? -supporting Clinton in her decision to stay in the race, at least until she can gracefully exit, without the appearance of being forced out except by the inescapable law of mathematics, thus being able to help reunify the Party

The article mentions that Senator Clinton's lead is down to "7″ in the superdelegate race. Where that may be true, the superdelegate number shown in this article shows Senator Clinton at 267 and Senator Obama at 250 - Making the difference "17″ and not "7."

You need to check your math. The article says "Obama picks up two superdelegates, narrows gap to seven." The two endorsements bring Clinton's advantage over Obama among superdelegates down to seven, according to CNN's estimate; Clinton has the backing of 267 superdelegates, while Obama has 250.

In my book 267 minus 250 equals 17.

I have only 1 problem with this article: the math. Doesn't 267 minus 250 equal sevenTEEN? Was one of those totals given incorrectly?

Jody this democratic baby boomer will vote for John McCain, and I do have a life thank-you very much.

Go Obama - we are for you!!!

Yes We Can!!!

I loved Time magazine….AND THE WINNER IS……..

YES!!
OBAMA/CASEY08

Check your numbers — you say the spread is 7, so either Obama has 260 and she has 267, or he has 250 and she has 257.

There's no way I will be able to vote for Obama. I just don't trust the guy.

McCain is a good moderate candidate to vote for, he will have my vote in November.

Obama Heavy Weight Champion of the Democrats!!!

Thank you! Democrats lets come together and make this happen for us in Washington with Barack Obama. He promises to listen to us and lead from the bottom-up and that is the best way. Thanks……

The overall tone on this board (from both sides) certainly validates George Bernard Shaw's observation that "democracy is a device that ensures we shall be governed no better than we deserve."

The fools that say they would vote for McCain in november if Clinton is not the nominee, just imagine 4 years from now that you chose to jeopardize the lifes of many soldiers over in Iraq for A power hungry millionare.

The only lesson they will teach is to themselves!!!

Thank you!

Go Obama!

All aboard the Obama Expess to the White House - Penn Ave!

Keep em' coming!

For those of you who care more about revenge than this country, all I can do is shake my head in disgust. I truly feel sickend by such "patriotic" people.

American will never be what it can be because we have too many people with selfish, idiotic, biased, and childish attitudes.

People that call themselves democrats and then just because their candidate doesn't win they will rather not vote or vote for a republican, those people should be ashame of themselves!!! They would rather have more Bush years!!!! False DEMOCRATS!!!!!!

I emailed my senator's to defect. The time is now.

Obama = Bush.
Disenfranchise FL = Disenfranchise FL

Not surprised!
Pressure is on for superdelegates to lead, not to follow.

Mistake

No bitterness, simply will go to plan B, McCain.

So I see in America, Hate is stronger than love, Hillary suppoerters is saying that their hate for Obama is greater than their love for their follow citizen in iraq who is dying everyday for nothing.

I really don't see where Clinton and her supports can come up with the numbers needed to win…….

Obama confident about winning Clinton voters.
NEVER!!

Hey, CNN you have an error: Obama has 260 superdelegate endorsements, not 250 as you have!

Obama '08!

Hillary, and all those uppied women should be home with their mouth shut taking care of the kids.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hillary knows that she is done, she is fighting to be on the ticket as V.P because she knows that Obama would be reluctant to choose her. Old politics you know..He is right

haha you want him in Canada take him. he is not wanted here

And why is Obama still behind in the superdelegates again?

McCain vs Obama in November. Wow the choice couldn't be more of a no-brainer!

OBAMA '08

Error in the story: Obama now has 260 superdelegates, not 250.

please check your math

Hopefully all of you Dems who are threatening to vote for McCain if Hillary doesn't win the nomination will be put on the draft list for the next war the GOP starts should McCain win.
Nice knowing you. Obama supporters exempt of course.

hillary, stop turn around and leave just leave hillary now !!!!!!!! (yes Obama can )!!!!!!

It's been so obvious all along. Barack Obama is once in a lifetime.

Women, if you are within child bearing age you would be wise to think about the next Supreme Court appointments. Maybe many of you aren't old enough to remember the back alley abortions, women sticking clothes hangers into themselves to abort unwanted babies. Women bleeding to death or getting infections from back room abortions and becoming sterile from them. Women taking all kind of home remedies and dying because of unwanted pregnancies. Well, I remember and it wasn't nice. Think about someone other than yourself when you go in that voting booth.

Go Obama! Go all the way to the White House!!

Yes we can!!!!!

Barack 08

Go away Hillary and take Bill, Lanny and Carville with you and don't come back.

My mother taught me that you don't judge a book by its cover, but rather by what's on the inside. That is why I voted for Senator Obama. Also as a lifelong Catholic, I also was taught that it is a sin to lie…so I guess I'm not getting the Catholic support of Ms. Clinton?????

I wish that ALL Democrats will support Mr. Obama in the general election. Let's ALL hold hands and set aside whatever ill feelings we have and recapture the WH so we can get this economy back on track.
The unnecessary war in Iraq is one of the reasons why we're in the state we're today for almost 6 six years now or better. Let's stop the financing of the war and use the money for the American people. After all it's the American People's money and nobody else. Think about it. Please make a wise and fruitful decision.

OPERATION IGNORE HILLARY IS WORKING !!!!

YA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

OBAMA 08,12

Keep them coming, keep them coming. Thanks for joining the winning team for change.

Do people not realize that though a candidate's character and "experience" is somewhat important, the most important thing is who they surround themselves with? Do you really think Presidents make their decisions based solely on their experience? No, they refer to someone who has detailed knowledge on the topic at hand. I feel that the experience thing is completely overhyped…afterall, Lincoln only served one term in Congress before being elected President.

Myself and all the Dems I know will not for a racist and Anti-American Obama.

Dean, Kennedy ,Kerry and all the ole school Dems can spin it, and say we'll all unite, we'll all come together……..BS.

The old Dems should have done their homework on Obama, before they tried to shove him down everyone's throat.

We will vote for Repiblican McCain, at least he is a proud American and shows and has shown loyalty to his country.

Hillary or McCain ….take your pick…….but always no to Obama.

All aboard the obamaloser train!

FL and MI are not in play because they broke DNC rules and held their primaries before they were supposed to!!! It has absolutely NOTHING to do with Obama, party elitist, etc,etc,etc. Hillary LOOKS like she's winning both those states because she kept her name on the ballot when both Obama and Edwards removed their names. Yet another rule broken. She did not WIN ANYTHING. Stop the talking points on this matter. If the states would have played by the rules and Hillary played by the rules the votes would have been counted. Y'all making me tired here….

Play be the rules= Your votes count

Breakt he rules= Votes don't get counted.

It's not hard.

Once more, the Democrats are pulling their age-old trick on themselves: nominating a candidate who cannot win a national election.

Hillaburton wants to keep the war going….

A vote for Hillary is an irresponsible vote. Why would anyone want to keep the same two families (Bush/Clinton) in power?

It's very interesting that the minute any Democrat says they'll vote for McCain over Obama - all the Obama supporters immediately start calling them racists!!! Clearly, the apple doesn't fall very far from the tree - this is what Obama has been doing all along!!!!

guess who's surprised?

not me.

Obama 08!

Hillary Campaign Says No To New Michigan Delegate Proposal

Let's look at the electoral map and see which states in which Obama can't beat McCain….

I'll bet McCain beats Obama in more states b/c of the demographics

Obama will be an excellent president!

America is tired of pandering Washington politicians like Hillary and McCain. It is time for real leadership, real character, real vision. We can make America and the world a better place.

Please for the good of our country vote Obama.

The Clinton campaign keep stating the that she won FL and that there was a huge turnout. Being from FL, everyone knew the election did not count. The reason for the huge turnout was not because of the presidential election, it was because of the property taxes admendment that was on the ballot, which effected everyone. Barack did not come to FL, as per the agreement and then Hillary comes the last few days. So Barack abided by the rule, Hillary did not, as usual. If the election was reheld to day, Hillary's luck might run out. But for Hillary to state she won Florida is a joke. I used to admire her and her husband, but the shine is gone and the history books will not look favorably on the Clintons, which is really too bad.

To my democratic brethren. Please, lets cut Hillary some slack. I am an Obama supporter but i realize that this race has been long and grueling. Hillary and Barack have given alot of themselves in the process. It is not easy to just throw the cards in at this stage of the game Please, cut her some slack. She knows like we all know that the writing is on the wall. I suspect that at this point she is trying to raise money to erode her hefty debt. It will be officially over by June 4th. We need to bring this party together if we are going to defeat John Mccain, which should be all of our goals. I say congratulations to Hillary for her tenacity. It is time to mend all hard feelings within our party.

Clinton Supporters,

1) Disbelief and Denial (Hillary and a handful of die hard feminists.)

2) Anger and Blame (That what most of you bitter Hillary posters are currently exibiting.)

3) Exploration (You will seek out Barack, and listen this time.)

4) Acceptance (You will come to understand that Obama has your interests at heart, and McCain is a Republican.)

Give it time ladies.

Just got another endorsement…. that's gap is closing like teeth with braces.

I am sick and tired of Hillary Clinton insinuating that Barak Obama can not win the Presidential Election in November. She insists that he can not get the votes of white senior citizens, white blue collar workers, rural whites, and whites who simply refuse to vote for him. I can say that Barack Obama has worked dilligently to gain support of those demographics by going to factories and plants, rural communities, small dinners, etc., to try and gain the support and respect of these voters. Hillary Clinton, on the other hand, has never made an effort to regain the support of black voters. Rather than try to explain comments made by her husband and herself and apologize for them, she has been indignant and defensive. Yet, she calls Barack Obama elitist and out of touch, when in fact, she is the most elite of them all. Will someone please inform Mrs. Clinton that the United States will survive and be just fine without her.

Something must be wrong with my calculator because it kept coming up with 17:

"The two endorsements bring Clinton's advantage over Obama among superdelegates down to seven, according to CNN's estimate; Clinton has the backing of 267 superdelegates, while Obama has 250."

Here we go again. Everything is always about Obama. Obama this, Obama that. I am sick of hearing about him. He has no plans for our country and is still playing the race card even though he won't actually admit it. Let's face it, Hillary might have stumbled a bit here recently, but she still won in Indiana. There are more primaries ahead and she should fight until the convention if need be. I still support her and I wish you people who want her to drop out now would just quit harping on that already. She will NOT give up as long as she has our support. There are loads of people who want her to be our nominee. She is the best candidate to compete against John McCain. GO HILLARY 08!!!!!!!!!

Why do people insist that Obama has no solutions? He is a leader and a communicator, not an adversarial bully. Me,me ,me, I, I ,I, "I know what's best for the country even though I don't listen to the experts". Sounds a lot like GWB.

I am always amazed how Hillary can have about 50% of the votes yet 90% of the comments on all the CNN forum are against her - something just doesn't add up….It is so sad to see how much media influences voters. Why did you feel the need to spend hours of air time analyzing whether the game is over for Hillary. At least 49% of demacratic voters don't think so. And who cares what the superdelegates think - if they can be bought off by campaign money - I don't really have any respect for their opinion.

I tell all you Clinton supporters one thing…we (AAs) maybe a minority in this country BUT BILLARY WILL NOT WIN without us if these SUPERDELEGATES take the nominee away from OBAMA. And dont you think they (SUPERDEL) know exactly that. They will put him over the top by the time WV is over next week.

OBAMANATION!!!!

TO ALL YOU HILLIBILLY HATERS, GO AHEAD KNOCK YOUR SELVES OUT. GO VOTE FOR MCSANE, THEN WE WILL ALL SUFFER LIKE WE ARE SUFFERING NOW UNDER THE brillant bush. YOU ALL ARE THE BIGGEST IDIOTS THE WORLD HAS EVER KNOWN. GO AHEAD SHOOT YOUR SELVES IN THE BLOODY HEAD, BECAUSE VOTING FOR MCSANE ,YOU WILL WANT TO SHOOT YOUR SELVES IN THE HEAD. IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

President Barack H. Obama 2008 & 2012

CNN is sooooooo in the tank for Obama….it is disgusting……bye CNN

CNN please report also the Montana Superdelegate today who also endorsed Obama: Jean Lemire Dahlman, National Democratic Committeewoman. She said "Hillary can't unite us".

that are my only two choices.

Go Obama! Now that that's out of the way, I'm confused…it says he's cut her lead to seven (7) but then the arcticle goes on to say her lead is 267 to his 250…that's 17. Which is it? I've noticed a lot of discrepancies in the Ticker arcticles the past couple of days…come on CNN, I'm with you but you've gotta get with it.

President Obama is sounding so beautiful to me right now

I don't know about you, but when I read or hear Hillary Clinton, I get instantly reminded of a rabid dog foaming at the mouth!!

Go home Hillary! You are like the party guest that stays even though everyone else has left and the hosts are starting to yawn. Go home back to New York, or is it Washington DC, or is it Scranton, PENN, or is it Arkansas, or is it park ridge, IL

you are so full of it, you make me stick. stop pandering to poor and uneducated WEST Virginians!

The people have spoken!! And now superdelegates you are doing the ONLY option, and that is to endorse Barack Obama, the next president of the United States. Please keep coming on board!! And end the drama, vote Obama

Maybe hillary should pander to the biased media press and wear some jeans like Obama. Oh wait its obama so thats not pandering.

I thought I was going to vote for McCain, but now I see the future. OBAMA! A bunch of Ron Paul people are going for Obama. No War in Iraq! No war in Iran! Affordable health insurance!

Ron Paul and Obama have very different philosophy - yet when it comes to policy, there is a remarkable degree of similarity.

Regardless if you are a Clinton supporter or not….we all have the media to blame forcing Billary on us every since her questionable Senate race in 2000. If she was never married to a president…No one would have ever heard of Billary. She is merely a coat tale politician that had no real experience just a last name that she married. She had questionable practices during her legal days working for a small lawfirm.

Here's the bottom line…..WE ALL have contributed to her campaign whether you wanted to or not. Who do you think pays for every trip that her husband makes on her behalf??? The US Taxpayer…yes…. The Secret Service needs to arrive before the former prez ever gets there so there all that expense that no one is talking about. I know we will never see what the real expense is to the tax payer to support her campaign but it will be well over a million dollars. And the longer she drags this out, she is punishing every single US taxpayer. Even if the government bills her for all this service…do you ever think she will pay for it since all the Clintons think they deserve it.

Also, with every one that is struggling to pay a mortgage….here's is something else to ponder. Billary wants to help you out in some fashion…but…..and here's the kicker…The Clintons bill the US government for the expense to have the US Secret Service at their residence in NY. And its exact amount of their monthly mortgage payment……Who's the elist now???

I can see Billary with not a clue what went wrong and why she can't play in her sandbox again….lol

My vote is for Obama. I'm against Iraq, I'm pro choice, I'm pro Constitution, I'm against torture. There is only one choice on those issues: Obama.

Who says Mccain will be a better President than Obama? How do you know? McCain has been in the senate since the U.S. was created and how has he changed anything? That's why were in the mess we are now because of the Republicans and you want to put another one in office? Heck no. . . .he has to go!

I am ashamed of all of you fellow democrats who proclaim that you will vote for McCain in November if your candidate doesn't get the nomination. How can you call yourself a democrat if you do so? You aren't teaching anyone a lesson doing so. You are going against everything our party stands for. You might as well register republican.

Personally, I detest Hillary. And for as little as I can stand her, you can bet I'll suck it up and vote for her come November if only to keep a republican out of office. You see I can look past my personal distaste for someone in order to unite the party. Why can't you do that?

I was a staunch Clinton supporter but it is now clear that she cannot win. Time to throw my support behind Obama. Even though he's not my first choice, I think he'll make a fine President. We are lucky enough to be blessed with two good Dem candidates this Primary so we can't go too wrong! Anything's better than more of the same Neocon BS we've been cursed with for the last 8 years. While it's good to support your favorite in a Primary, once it becomes clear your favorite is not THE favorite, it's time support your party as a whole…just like every Primary before this one. United we stand, divided we fall!

HILLARY'S PEOPLE WILL NOT VOTE FOR ODRAMA!!!!!!

SO GOOD LUCK!!!!!!

GO HILLARY!!!!!

I'm tired of people saying, "If not Hillary - I will vote for McCAIN!!!!"

WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU PEOPLE?!

Gas prices not high enough for you?

Not enough kids getting blown to pieces in Iraq for you?

Not enough conservative judges on the supreme court for you?

The next president will appoint AT LEAST two judges. If McCain is the president, you can say goodbye to Roe v. Wade.

Is that what you want?

VOTE INTELLIGENTLY.

To those HRC supporters who say they will not support Obama, it will not matter. There is and will be so many more voters involved in the general election that it will outweigh those who don't want improvement and progress in our country. Sorry, but you will need to step aside as the rest of the world moves forward.

There are some Democrats crying foul.

What if Hillary had won all the caucus states, will these people will ever be talking about it?

VOTE OBAMA. STOP that hor Hillary in 2012

The democratic party leaders need to realize that just because some one is a democrat, it does not mean that they are Party diehards. I might not vote for McCain, but I do know how not to vote for Obama.

You are so wrong, the blue collar worker, the senior citizens, Hilary supporters whose votes have not even been counted because of a corrupt DNC and biased media. I WILL NEVER VOTE FOR OBAMA, AND THE DNC WILL REALIZE COME ELECTION MCCAIN WILL WIN THE WHITE HOUSE FOR SURE

To Obama's supporters:

I just want to clear that voters choose Clinton because they know she has a solution for this country, to bring this country out of horrible time, to bring up economy, healthcare, education..etc…, not about they like her. But they know that Obama will do nothing to this country because he knows nothing, and they don't want to elect another president who will bring this country downward. and there can be alot more reasons. So they will choose McCain over Obama, because McCain will be a better candidate if Clinton is not nominee.

To the individuals who suggested blacks were racist because 90 percent or more voted for Barack Obama, first and foremost; it is unwise and ignorant to make general comments. Ninety percent is not one-hundred percent. Secondly, when black people have to constantly hear commentators insinuate that "white blue collar workers" and "white" this and that are unfavorable towards Barack Obama compared to Hillary Clinton, as if our votes do not matter or there aren't any "black blue collar workers", or whites are superior to blacks, we are forced to prove that our votes do matter and additional points. It is not a matter of racism, but the fact that we want our voices to be equally heard and points considered (or at least me, because I can't speak for everyone and some do like Hillary Clinton for their own personal reasons). Really, this racial divisiveness needs to stop, because the truth of the matter is, Clinton or Obama is going to win the nomination, but most likely, it will be Obama. Then must ask ourselves, are we going to be as spiteful as we claim Hillary Clinton are and vote for McCain or the opposing party because ours’ did not win or not vote at all? If everyone does, they will still lose and any complaints about the country once the President is elected into the White House, based on these actions, will be nullified and unwarranted. So, don’t complaint when in the end things do not go your way, because you will have chosen your destination and the direction of this country. I am and always will be a Barack Obama supporter and not because he is black and excellent speech giver, but because he offers hope, something we were promised every four years, but haven’t received yet. According to history, not black history, an African-American has never run this country, so who is anyone to say, one will destroy it? Perhaps it takes an African-American President, like Barack Obama, to undo what so many others created, and to do what so many others pontificated while running for President and later on failed to do. It is time for change in the right direction and less empty promises.

Are we really so sanguine about a BUSH 3rd term that we believe McCain will be a better President than the Democrat who beat our own favorite Democrat? CHILL OUT!!!! Don't vote for McCain. Don't stay home. Stay engaged. Resist the Republican attack machine. Support down ballot Democrats. Open your wallet. Talk to your Republican neighbors and family members. And vote for the Democrat in November, whomever he or she may be…..

David in Santa Rosa is wise. It's rediculous to pout and let McSame fill George Bush's 3rd term just because you are throwing a fit. Let's get our big kid pants on and come together.

Some of the comments are so unfortunate! As if the caucus format were devised only prior to this election cycle, purely to benefit Senator Obama; as if Florida and Michigan violated DNC rules, the consequences of doing so being known, in order to have their delegates disqualified with the primary purpose of benefitting Senator Obama…! Wow….

A few weeks ago I seriously thought about whether or not I can vote for the other candidate if the 1 chose did not win. At first, I kept saying I will just do a write-in. But we really do need to think about this on whether or not we want McCain as president. No matter what happens whoever is nominated we have to struggle with the reality of unity. We gotta stop the machine that is running the White House. Besides, the media might be saying something different next week when Clinton wins W.Va. by double digits. . .

To Sharon Minnesota………………..STOP IT HILLARY. We all know it's you doing these anti obama entries

I beg each and everyone one of the Clinton supporters who say they would vote for McCain if she is not nominated to reconsider. Think of all the damage he would do to this country. If you truly believe in the ideals that Sen. Clinton believes, then you must know in your heart that McCain would destroy any chance of achieving those ideals. If Clinton gets the nomination, even though I strongly disagree with her and her tactics, I would never vote for McCain. I believe Obama is the best candidate (as you all believe Clinton is) but we must unite against the faulty Republicans and reverse course before it is too late. Do NOT be fooled again by a 'moderate' looking Republican - he is the SAME as Bush. Have we not learned our lesson after 8 years? Don't stretch this on for four more. PLEASE.

Somebody said he can be a great President? What the heck are you idiots smoking? He's not even quailified to be in the Senate. Too bad Jeri Ryan took down her ex-husband Jack, we would have never had to deal with this abomination. What we need is a military take over to restore order and sweep the extreme left loons off the landscape.

The notion that African-Americans support Obama just because he is blacks is ignorant, as well as racist. We are just like everyone else: we vote for whomever we feel represent our interests. Some Clinton supporters are clueless. We overwhelmingly supported Bill in '92 and '96, and now there is a candidate( Obama) that we feel represent our interests the best, and y'all want to whine and complain about it. If blacks support all blacks just because of race ask an African american if they supported Clarence Thomas's nomination to the Supreme Court. Bill won the presidency because of support of the AA community, and we stood solidly behind him during the Lewinsky scandal.We vote for same reasons as any other voter, period, and for some Clinton supporters to imply otherwise demostrates how BITTER that some of you are. Go ahead vote for McCain, you will just be cutting off your nose to spite your face. Polls showing that Most Obama's supporters would vote for Clinton, but alot of Clinton supporters would NOT vote for Obama, show that THESE individuals not Blacks would be superficial in their vote, even it's to their own detriment.

Hillary just opposed the Michigan deal…. Guess she doesnt mind keeping those voters disenfrachised.

The Hillary supporters who vow to support McCain when (not if) Obama becomes out nominee are proof that her supporters truly are uneducated. It, therefore, makes sense that they would align themselves with the God-Gays-Guns Republicans and vote against their own economic interests.

Too bad.

~22 year old black female Ivy League law student for Obama….cuz you know, we ALL vote alike…

…CNN please post me, if only just this once…

All who advocate voting for McCain instead of Obama because Clinton doesn't get the nomination should really consider what that could mean in more GWBush policies and then simply recognize that feeling as really being consistent with the divisiveness and belligerence that Hillary has created. Without meaning to attack Hillary but rather wanting to see it for what it is, that thinking, that personality is what brought the campaign down to what it has been. Think about what is at stake and bring it up to a higher level
