Ted Kennedy took it to the convention when he was behind by 800 delegates.

Hillary is much tighter and has the same right under the democratic party rules.

I will never vote for Obama.

I expect there will be a non-racist white, insulted women, denigrated poor, and elderly voter backlash against Obama in Nov.

Superdelegates are making it worse.

We want Hillary Clinton

Obama is just unelectable in Nov. He's a phony and a liar who is trying to disenfranchise millions of voters. He needs his advisers to tell him what to do, he needs his speech writers and tele prompters to talk and he thinks there's 59 states. Good luck!

Obama is such a weak candidate that even all the Superdelegates won't be able to save him.

They are trying to salvage, their own early poor judgement in backing Obama.

His appeal has peaked.

Write in Hillary Clinton in Nov.

The celebrity fest of rock stars and rappers and sport figures didn't do i.t
Threatening HRC supporters at caucus didn't do it.
Trashing, bashing and mocking Hillary Clinton didn't do it.
Denying the vote to Fl and Mi didn't do it
Blocking the revote in Fl and Mi didn't do it.
The race card didn't do it.
Will the Superdelegates be able to prop Obama up when all else failed?

I tried to post this under Michelle's article, but comments were closed, so I'll put it here.

Aww, Michelle's gonna start crying now just like Barack has been all along. What about all the hateful things that were said about Chelsea Clinton by you disgusting hate-filled Obamabots? If Michelle can't stand the heat she should get out of the kitchen or not say stupid hate-filled things or write anti-American thesis or attend racist churches and raise her children in them.

And it's only the beginning – I can't wait! This is gonna be fun

At this point in the campaign, I think it is futile to comment or maybe even report that Obama is picking up additional superdelegates. He has regained the momentum in this race after North Carolina/Indiana. Is there anything new and interesting going on between the presumptive Democratic and Republican nominees?

By: Mighty mice

Mighty mice — Thu, 15 May 2008 19:51:55 +0000

The mighty DEMs in the DNC allowed Obama to divide the party by playing the race card in SC and over and over again thereafter.

No one stood up to say, what? The Clintons racists?

Now they will see a Nov backlash against the DNC.

TOO LATE FOR UNITY

By: dave

What I don't understand is John Edwards' rationale for backing Obama. He says he's doing it so as not to split the democratic party but he has repeatedly spoken of "not to forget the poor and impoverish" which both Obama and Clinton had pledged not to do when Edwards left the race.

Hillary Clinton has overwhelmingly won that vote in Nevada, CA, NM, Texas, PA, NJ & WV.

So someone clear this up for me: is John Edwards just a big HYPOCRITE or he just playing old-fashioned politics? I thought he was for the common man.

signed, another dem who will vote dem only if Hillary is on the ticket or will write her in on the ballot.

I do not understand why smart thinking people do not realize that Senator Obama is merely our present day 'Peanut Farmer' Presidential Candidate. If Obama becomes President, that presidency will be much the same as Jimmy Carter's presidency.....in a word, it will be a disaster! John McCain's presidency will be four more years of the Bush legacy, just more economic disaster. Thus, Hillary Clinton is clearly the best choice for President. She has the experience, the savvy, and the support she needs in order to undue much of the damage caused by the Bush Presidency. I seriously wish people would wake up and do the smart thing and put their support behind Hillary Clinton. I have. I am so convinced that she is the only viable choice for the presidency, that if she is not the nominee I will not be voting in November!

keep them coming...i think this qualifies as a flood...about 40 superdelegates in 9 days...wow

Clinton supporters keeping bad-mouthing superdelegates....it shows how mean spirited they really are. I wish they would realize that Obama won't be denied. Instead of being gracious and recognizing that, they are prepared to take this to the convention and that is unacceptable. We as democrats should start aiming are fire at John McBush. If we do that, the democrats will take the white house in an unprecedented fashion. I have no doubt that It will be a Reagan type victory where we win an astounding victory. So democrats unite

say NO to failed bush policies on IRAQ
say NO to failed bush policies on ECONOMY
say NO to failed bush policies on HEALTHCARE
say NO to failed bush policies on EDUCATION
say NO to failed bush policies on ENVIRONMENT

TRUE democrats will unite around Obama due to the MAJOR policy differences between Mccain. Democrats who don't are the scum of society and shouldn't be considered true democrats anyway.

Superdelegates should quit dragging their feet. McCain is consolidating his base while valuable time is being wasted. Every minute is very crucial toward the Dems winning the November elections.

Wasting time will jeopardize the Dems chances of winning – except they take the general elections for granted – then they're doomed to lose.

With your visionary leadership, we can re-claim America from the corporate lobbyists and special interests and move this country to unprecedented heights of prosperity, tranquility, security, and stability for all. In addition, you will restore the rest of the world's faith, trust and confidence in its greatest nation, the good old U.S. of A.

My comment is this, I strongly think that the Delegates in florida / michigan should be counted and alotted equally to the three Candidates, Clinton , Obama And Edwards if ever they are to be included. No one person is entitled to them for no campaigning was done at all. Thank you;

Hillary Clinton wants results to be known in all 50 states (or is it 57?). That is why she continues campaigning.

In 2012, when Michelle, er, Barack Obama is tossed out of the White House, Hillary Clinton will have an impressive record from which to begin her 2012 campaign.

And at that time, all these "super delegates," who will be voting the way THEY want to, now how the voters want them to, will be scurrying for cover from their angry constituents.

I admire and respect Berman and Waxman for their messages upon endorsing Obama. The sooner this thing ends with Hillary Clinton the the better for the Democrats. Obama needs a rest before launching a full scale battle with John McCain. Clinton is denying him that rest – probably on purpose.

That's a total of 180 deligates lead. This is bad, even if I am looking to see now of how I would do in 2012 primary in the rest of the states. By lasting this till late, I am ruining my chances of running in 2012 too, forget about 2008.
