CNN

John Edwards is a joke! He even admitted as late as Monday he wasn't prepared to endorse anyone and now he backs Obama because he's worried that Hillary's landslide victory in W. Virginia could cause a divide. He endorsed Obama for his own political gain. I smell set up. I'm disgusted with the DNC right now.

Hillary has devoted her entire life to public service and I for one respect her and support her.

I love Hilliary but she made a big mistake that is underestimating Obama

when you work less and get payed more, of course you want the lazy candidate and the one that will ensure your laziness continues

Democrates Unite!!!!

One another note, Barack has came up in the world, nationally standing at 49%

When a large union endorses a candidate it doesn't reflect the individual votes of the members. I belong to such a union and we were not consulted before the union made their endorsement. The announcement just came down from the ivory tower in which the union bosses live. Their endorsement is based on who will be most likely to punish large companies (the idea being that union members benefit from this).

Listen ladies for Hillary, Rov vs Wade is more important that electing Hillary Clinton. Wake up. John McCain is not pro-choice. I personally do not want my daughter to have to live in a world without choices. And you shouldn't either.

Mr. Obama is a great genuine and respectful, humble person. Thank you so much to those who have endorsed him! He listens to the people, and he will try his best! He's not a part of the same old politics, he will work hard for us, he took no money from special interests and lobbiests, he owe's them nothing!

Thank you to John Edwards and the United Steelworkers! You have endorsed a man of integrity & decency! God Bless You All!

This is so Awesome!!!!! I am so proud to be a part of this historic event.

God is Good!!!!!!

It seems everything is falling in place for Obama. I knew the Steelworkers would follow right after Edward's endorsement. I think this is going to be a great year for all Democrats

OK Hillary, now you need to step down. You are not more electable than Obama. Face it, you've lost and we would like to get away from the old, inefficient, nasty ways of American politics of which you and your ilk had a hand in creating.

Write in for Hillary? Get a grip on yourself and move on.

Nice Shot Obama! I apologize but those who are strongly suggesting that they would vote McCain if Hillary isn't the nominee for 1) Comes off seeming Very....racist. 2) And you're a democrat.. democrats back democrats, but I guess its the world we live in.. Unity 08'

Woot!!! Yay and we welcome you all! I myself and husband are hard working white blue collar workers so Obama does have support there much to the dismay of the polls/stats... Also I only hold a GED so your polling needs work as they dont seem true.. Again welcome and glad to have you aboard..

Obama 08/09

No matter how many endorsements he can get, we, the Clinton supporters will choose McCain over Obama! Period! Don’t you dare say 17 millions of American people who voted for Sen. Clinton are the dumbest because they don’t agree with you media and pundits!

I have all but conceded the race to Senator Obama. But I do laugh at the stock taken by endorsements for any candidate by an individual having that big an impact on American voters. I hope that we all have our own voice.
But let's say I'm wrong for a moment- Sen. Obama has received the endorsement of Gov. Richardson- losing candidate for president, Sen Edwards- two time losing cnadidate for president, Sen. Kennedy- losing candidate, Sen. Kerry- losing candidate, Sen Dodd- losing canddidate, Sen Bradley- losing candidate- should I continue? When Carter comes out officially for Obama he will at least have one winner in his corner – a man trounced in his re-election.
Maybe Hillary should throw one final coal on the fire-
"Obama- endorsed by more losers than me!"

Consider this about the states that Obama won with high percentages.

* Virgin Islands (89.9%)
* Idaho (79%) –
* Hawaii (76%) –
* Alaska (75%)
* District of Columbia (75%)
* Kansas (74%)
* Washington (68%)
* Nebraska (68%)
* Minnesota (67%)
* Colorado (67%)
* Georgia (67%)
* Illinois (65%)
* Virginia (64%)
* Maryland (62%)
* North Dakota (61%)
* Wyoming (61%)
* Mississippi (61%)

Many of these states have large black populations, mid-western relations with Illinois and/or affluent/starbucks drinking Democrats. We cannot win the in November with only these voters and keep in mind these voters will vote Democrat whether its Obama or Clinton, it is the other voters we need to be worried about.

Russell B,

I bet you those members of that union, you know the ones with proper vacation time, insuraqnce benefits, medical day off would dispute your claim that the union is a mob, but Reagan fooled all of you dumb people into believing that trickle down economics is the way to go, not the unions...

EXCEPT THE RICH DON'T LIKE TO SHARE.

Thank you so much. This is music to my ears. I wish I can thank you all in person but I can't. For what you did I am proud to be an American.

Compare. McCain vaguely suggest Iraq withdrawal after his "first term" in 2013....hmmmm...sound familiar?

Obama will be the Next President of the United States.

This is just my opinion, I think this is the most exciting primary in years. Speaking as a voter in a state that used to have a late primary I can say it is extremely frustrating when the nomination has already been determined before I even had a chance to vote. I believe this is the reason for such high turn out is not the excitement of one candidate but the excitement that their state matters their vote will count. The democrat party will come together in the end. It is the independent votes they need to worry about

With that said the democrat party needs to serious look at how the delegates are divided in the future. If they had the same winner take all system as the republicans Clinton would be up by almost 400.

Either way I think I am leaning for McCain because we created a mess in Iraq and no matter how much I disagree with what happen over there I believe we need to stay and clean up the mess we made

Will you people please stop trying to scare all women into thinking McCain will overturn Roe v Wade????? Sorry, but what he wants to do is STOP late term abortions. And allow the babies that survive to continue to live. Unfortunately BO would rather the babies that survive late term be killed. FYI.
Do you really think women in America would allow Roe to be overturned?

When Edwards was in the race, he went after Obama about all his "present" votes. Obama was afraid to make a yes or no vote and still is. Why does Edwards think Obama is so great now?

What is it that Hillary Clinton wants she can not WIN! unless she has some dirty trick she is waiting to pull with FLand MI. she was the one who started the push for MI. to move up their primary her and their GOV. I don't trust that woman as far I can spit. (yes Obama can)!!!!!!!

I want to see your country lead by the lady. I support Hillary

Christopher (In Edwards Endorses Obama)

Honestly, think about it. You and other people who are talking about how Barack is getting 90% of African American votes are NOT taking into consideration that African Americans make up a small percentage of the total overall votes. Let me put it this way-to make this simple–if 500 African American voters voted in a primary and 2500 whites voted in a primary...then you might hear 90% of the African Americans voted for Obama and 10% for Clinton. As for whites, 60% for Clinton and 40% for Obama. These numbers, in the first place (500 and 2500) are clearly not even in the same proportion. If there were 2500 African American voters and equally 2500 white voters, then maybe you're argument could be more sound because there is equal playing ground, but it's simply not that way. With 2500 African American votes and 2500 white votes, I guarantee you the numbers would be different.

The mere fact some of you idiot bloggers think CNN is biased against Obama just goes to show how low the mental average of some Americans can be.Well it could actualy be worse, because I am sure some of those idiots might think FOX news? is biased against McCain

Sharon Minnesota,

The NEW McCain is not the McCain of 2000, this man is a shell of a man he used to be.

Sensible? I guess bomb bomb bom I ran sounds sensible to some people, but not me.

I am 100% for Obama, and it is time for all democrats to unite. Althought I do not support Hillary, I can respect her efforts and determination. If she had been the winner, I would have been very disappointed, but I would have taken my disappointment right into the booth and voted for her in November.. There is NO WAY I would vote for MCBush out of spite. It is not only my future at stake, by my children's and grandchildren's as well. They deserve better than another Bush/McCain term. None of us could survive that.

I strongly encourage all DEMS to let go of the anger, bitterness, namecalling, ugliness and nastiness and racism and remember our common purpose. We have to opportunity to elect a president who will work the for good of all people.

We Obama supporters welcome everyone to join in and let's make it happen.....let's welcome President Barack Obama!

All Aboard!!!!!!
Obama '08

ANY DEM WILL DO!

THERE WILL BE NO UNITING BEHIND OBAMA!!

GOODBYE OBAMA!!

I have to agree with some other posts who replied to PSmith: If you don't think Hillary (and Bill) are thugs, then you are a few bricks shy of a load! Do some research on the backgrounds of the two candidates and then tell me that Hillary isn't the one who is a "thug" as you so eloquently put it!

Also, to Chrissy, TX: There are plenty of educated women with brains and common sense would not vote for Hillary if she was the only candidate on the ballot! She is a proven liar, has more skeletons in her closet than a Halloween store, and is no more ready to run the country than she was to run a campaign...which she failed miserably.

To: PSimth

I guess you enjoyed the 4 years BUSH gave us. Grow-up please, you really sound like a goof!!! Write Hillary name on the ballot; What kind of foolishness is that, if she's not on the general election ballot. You already know what you will get from McCain. Dem/ and Independents let's not make foolish suggestions like CRACK HEAD PSmith suggest. Unified Dem party with the addition of our Independent brothers and sisters, we will have a fighting chance for the future (Yes We Can!!!) PSimth, I know a drug abuse therapist who can help you with your CRACK inhaling problem – You Geek Monster. BAM!

So much for poor working family rhetoric by Edwards. His support of Obama flies into the face of America's working family who put their support behind Hillary for the hope of health care for all.
This Dem is stying home on November.

and to Matt from Dallas, if you have not gotten it by now, you will never ,because you don't want to.

Matt from Dallas

And his campaing is build on false dreams of change and hope for someone that has been part of the status-quo and make deals with Kerry and Kennedy who better represent Washington.

He is fake

LMAO....Obama chance of winning is about as great, as a snowballs chance in hell!!

Matt from Dallas....Every thing that Obama has proposed he has stolen from Hillary...he doesn't have a mind of his own!! Can't even speak without it written down in front of him. umm umm!!!

I cant write in Hillary in November, they only give me this thing where I punch the ballot while I'm dodging snipers in Bosnia.

GOOD FOR THEM – they are not listening to all the racist and divisive comments from even now the President? This is why he needs to out of the white house period.
He is a disgrace to America and Americans with that divisive comment in another country no less?????? WOW, McCain, I hope you have a good response for your backer and campaign man

Matt from Dallas
please go read her history. you will get it then. Really. you've been told so many horrible things about her. she's so much better. go read Mya Angelo's writings about her. just do some research.

Edward sold his endorsement to Obama for the Attorney General position. Now Edwards can get a $400 haircut every 2 weeks. Funny, Edwards wife won't support Obama. I guess, Elizabeth, cares more about the people than money or positions.

Dave

Direct your hate back to your family

Get real Leon!
"Why should I jump in the bus of such selfish haters and support their candidate when they show no respect for others positions and opinions. Obama followers behave like kids without political maturity based on emotions."

Because we are on the same bus!!! Obama's and Clinton's views are very similar. Clinton supporters who deflect in November are the ones who will be voting based on their emotions!

Hey P. Smith. They have medicine for your condition sweetie....

Full speed ahead to the White House. God Bless you Obama!

Yolanda/S.A. Texas

Again do you think that by saying come on board you lossers HIllary supportes will come onboard of Obama haters. You are nuts we also believe in issues and positions not only in personality and speeches Obama has to do a more better job to prove that he is more than pretty speeches and betraying his family members when he is a potientianl risk, where are his moral values....

Hillary's contention that Obama cannot win the white American vote is absurd. Obama won 79% of the vote in Idaho and Idaho is 87% white. Many people can see through Hillary's semi-truths to down right lies. We want someone who will tell us the truth, we've had 8 years of lies and look where that has gotten us. OBAMA!

Rebecca you are a crazy lady. and very MEAN.
Michigan for Obama. Read Rebecca's post all over here.

I have a college education and I'm smarter in making Hillary my choice for President. No inside backroom politics by the same old party elders that Barack Obama says he wants to change, will make me ever vote for him. The Democratic party insults Americans and we will not have our votes manipulated and they have done just that.

BUSH IS AN EVIL MAN AND WE WILL NOT ALLOW HIS FAILED POLICIES CONTINUALLY DESTROY OUR NATION AND OUR CHILDREN'S HOPE FOR PEACE AND PROSPERITY. MY DECEASED FATHER RETIRED AS A STEELWORKER(AFLCIO) AND HE WOULD EXPECT ME TO VOTE OBAMA.

I hope Obama picks Edwards as his VP. Edwards didn' take PAC money. Yesterday was a big day with a lot of details about policy...the manufacturing plan for green cars will begin to be negotiated the very first month, healthcare by summer, 1-2 brigades per month troop relief/withdrawal beginning immediately, reducing hunger/poverty over decade in half, torture will be gone and the integrity of the constitution restored with a single hand on a bible, promising to safeguard and protect America. Imagine how fast this great experiment can produce real results with many of these big corporations, gently brushed aside.

Note...

Hillary does NOT have the popular vote by every counting metric.

Unless you count votes cast on the sixth tuesday of juvemuary, during a hail storm as pink elephants marched backwards down pennsylvania avenue...

THEN...

she has the popular vote.....

Enough Mr. Bush!! How can you sleep at night when a lot of innocent children and women got killed because of your arrogance? Is there guilt somewhere in your heart knowing what Iraq had become because of your cowboy mentality? Iraq has nothing to do with 911. Why are we in Iraq again?

My dreams are 100% accurate. Obama will beat McCain by 3 point and he will become a president. Congratulation Obama. Remember this foretelling

I know some of these Union Members and believe me when I say that although Obama's Thugs managed to get this public endorsement.

The members themselves will not be voting for what they refer to as

"A Left Wing Nut in Training Pants!"

He is going to go down in History as the third Left Wing Nominee the party tired to get elected but couldn't!

McCain 08

You know it does not matter any more. I have been a life long Democrat, however, this year the party is lost. Obama is the most incompetent nominee and I will never vote for him. I am sorry, but there is no way I can vote for Obama. Best wishes and good-bye to the party that I once knew. This year I will be voting for McCain. It is so sad that someone with no plan, no experience, and unable to connect with 50% of the Democrats is going to be the nominee. Yes, its true, Obama has not been carrying one single state in which there has been a closed primary. He is getting elected from people outside of the party hijacking our process.

I have read theses blogs from the beginning, and Obama bloggers are the worst offenders of sprewing evilness and mean- spirited behavior toward HC. Let's witness the Republican machinery against Obama.

Have you all heard? Al-Qaeda and Hamas have given their official endorsement of Obama too. Looks like he has all kinds of support, isn't that nice.....just what we need terrorists who love our president. That should do wonders for the USA. Oh well, it's not like he can win the general election anyway.

It's amazing. Do Clinton supporters vote for Clinton or their future? Both Hillary and Obama have similar plans. The reason most people vote for either one is due to personal preference. In the end, Obama won more hearts including mine. The logical thing for the Clinton supporters to do is to join together in unifying the party behind one strong candidate, which in this case is Obama. Instead, we see a large group of Clinton supporters hinting they willl vote for Mccain instead. My question to you all is this: are you voting for Clinton's fututre or your future because as she herself said : win or lose they will be fine, they made $109 million in the past few years. What about you and me? Foreclosures, Job loss, Iraq war, health care, gas prices and the list goes on. And you say you will rather vote for Mccain to continue these same policies that got us in this hole? How patriotic!!! Think about your future.Voting for Mccain will be a drastic
mistake. Hillary will go back to her mansion in Chapaqua.

Obama is the ONLY one who can heal this country. Hillary is hell bent on destroying it. She sent our kids off to be killed. How can she sleep at night?

Some of these comments are really frustrating to read. Even Hillary herself says voting for McCain would be a grave mistake. If you trust her, trust her fully. Democrats, we have to unite. Stop being petty!

It seems like everybody is holding Obama's hand but he can not close the deal.

Obama can not close the deal even most establishement to include the DNC are holding is hand.

If Obama gets elected he will be paying back a lot to these people, groups and corporation. If he does not, he will fail miserably.

Hillary is tougher for the job.

America is about realities, facts, truisms honesty, sincerety. Obama should be given a name. And that name is Organizer. This guy was a community organizer. He organized his bid for the senate and won in 2002. Now look are his bid for the presidency. He has organized it so well that he raised the most money. Debt free. He has and is winning the hearts of America. I think Obama should be named the best ORGANIZER of the year.

It was beautiful to see two brothers yesterday on that stage in Mich-

John Edwards and Obama!

Tears came to my eyes yesterday – when
John Edwards said to America-------– this is One America!

Way to go! Thank you John!

Who Cares? Obama will never, ever be President of this Nation. He's mouthing off to President Bush AS IF he's already elected. Who does he think he his? Where is his respect? President Bush is speaking in terms of Foreign and World Affairs, a topic that Obama doesn't have a clue about. Obama would be better off keeping his mouth shut. It's really arrogant to contradict a Commander in Chief in office. Obama's nothing but a "candidate." Obama is NOT the "nominee." Further, Obama can go no further until he WINS the Nomination. He hasn't WON YET. Obama's already become so arrogant that many who were going to vote for him have now changed their minds. Obama is weak and unqualified to be the nominee, and completely INDECISIVE. He's already proven that he's inadequate.

AnnT,,

Read what you wrote and you will see that the hate is still inside you.

Way to continue diviging the party

hahahaha...write in Hillary. That's rich.

I honestly would like for someone that supports her to tell me what it is about her that they like because I just don't get it. She constantly comes off as having a very contrived personality and just doesn't have the way with people that Bill did. Her entire campaign is built on this smokescreen of "experience" that doesn't exist.

Let's UNITE!

I am voting for who ever is the DEMOCRATIC nominee! This race is going to boil down to WHITE/BLACK, WOMEN/MEN! It’s no way around it! Let’s get smart! No one wants another BUSH/McCain for another 4 years so VOTE for change! Obama and/or Hillary can bring that! People are putting so much into what the media did to her, what the media did to him, that’s the Media’s job! Read between the lines guys! Either one will bring about the change we need cause right now we are headed for disaster! Bring the troops home, it’s "our" sons and daughters who are fighting in the wars, while their kids are here, with them living the good life! I beg people, don’t limit yourself to "if it’s not her or him, my vote is for McCain", that’s the WORST mistake anyone can/will make!

Everyone seems to be having fun beating each other up. I hope that all the madness and hurt feelings can be put aside and we can all come together with one common goal of getting the Republicans out of the White House.

It's FULL SPEED on to the WHITE HOUSE for Barack Obama!!!

Even HilLIARy is trying to tell her "supporters" to vote for Obama in November... hopefully they'll at least be smart enough to listen to her...

Great! Keep'em comin!

BIG DEAL...

How many times have unions backed Obama and he still lost.?

Hillary you have over 17,000,000 supporters and were with you to
the end or we will vote MCCAIN. NO OBAMA

I don't know what superdelegates are waiting. Obama will be the president.

Sharon Minnesota - You are an idiot. All of you women who are looking forward to a McCain win over Obama are idiots.

How can you vote for a man who will threaten Roe v Wade just because you are pouting about Hillary not making the cut. Go right ahead and shoot yourself in the foot.

And YOU are the ones crying about the recession, war, women's rights, etc.

DUH!!!

WE simply shouldnt wory about anything Hilary wonts us to wory.It geting more and more clear once again -she has poor judgement!!!!Yes, she is strong , made out uf steal, but has wrong judgements- not only on Iraq( when those who she claims have less experiance were able to know better than she with experiance) When her main strategists Mark Pen works on deals for traids wit Columbia, when she spent money some hard working people donate recklesly and runs in red her bills,and the same time wont us to belive her comander in cheif skils, when she rudely asks for more money to invest in campain that can not reach candidacy but servs her privilage to keep going because Her opinion is diferent , and She see things diferent than so many of those who voted – again wrong judgement.When she wont us to belive she will turn around economy but can't own campain....over and over poor judgement and maybe unfortunately so dam strong that is not able to be in touch with reality and read what is obvious. Isn't that comon factor between her and Bush- he wouldn't let facts and reality change his views and look where we are .Once again wrong judgement bluecolar voters will make their minde once she who devading us is out of race.....

I read someone say "Write Hillary's name on the ballot"...Well let it be told, your own candidate has vowed to support whomever the candidate is. She has also asked that all her supporters support the democratic nominee...If she can over look her loss, why can't you.

The time has come where we all support the democratic party as a whole..Can we please all grow up and fight against those who have really done the party and American's wrong and not turn against each other.

Thank you!!

For all of the folks who just don't know, there are 57 primaries and caucuses.

50 states plus 7 districts and territories.

USVI, Guam, Samoan Islands, Democrats abroad, Puerto Rico, Texas two step, and Washington DC.

Na na na na,
na na na na,
hey hey hey,
Goodbye...

Obama '08

Edwards is not endorsing Obama....HE'S ENDORSING HIMSELF. He just waited to see who was probably going to win...he's just looking to further his own career. He's not loyal to either one, Obama or Clinton. He just waited to see which way the wind was blowing.

Let's keep the ball rolling! Obama '08!

Marvin, I take it you've been Hannitized and therefore can't think for yourself. Understood!

Black America – you're a fool!

I don't have a college degree, but I'm smart enough to make the right choice and support Obama.

GO OBAMA!!!!

To PSmith: Funny how all the Hillary supporters say Obama supporters are vile, evil, rude, etc., when it seems to me they spew the most hate. And as far as you "never voting for a thug"...why are you referring to a Ivy league graduate & community organizer as a thug? His skin color, perhaps? Wow! Get over yourselves and prejudices for the good of this country!!!

Democrat '08

If you are a true democrat and want the united states to move forward , then you will support the nominee, even if it is obama, to even suggest mcain and four more years of bush policies is ridiculous and stupid.
Lets go democrats , all the way to the white house, UNITE! UNITE! UNITE!

Obama 08

YES WE CAN!!!!!!!!!!!

All Sen. Clinton’s supporters that said they will vote for McCain in general election. Please do us (Sen. Obama supporters) a favor. Vote for him and stop telling us. If McCain win, he will select 2 or 3 new Supreme Court judges and they will over turn WOMAN right to choose. Do not blame us Sen. Obama supporters. You should blame yourself and please explain that to your daughter(s) and their daughter(s) why woman can not choose anymore.

Remember Supreme Court Judges are appointed for life. All of you can kiss pro-choice good-bye. Moreover, do not try to bully us (Sen. Obama supporters). If he does not win in 2008, we will vote for him again in 2012 and we will not support Sen. Clinton if you run again in 2012. I support woman right to choose.

OBAMA KNOWN AS THE MAN OF STEEL!!!!!!!!! DON'T BE RIDICULOUS!!
Are you people blind as well as dumb? He's a copier!

They are trying to shut Hillary down out of fear. She has been running so strong she is now unpredictable and they don't want another WV. Obama was PICKED by the dem activists and others to be the next president. Where do you think all that money is coming from? everything is organized.
If not for all that......Hillary would already have whuped his butt.

Reading the comments of Obama followers it is clear that reuniting the party and reconciling differences with the other 49% of the Party that supports HIllary is a very hard task.

We are more divided than ever and this group of angry and hater voters are making it even harder.

Why should I jump in the bus of such selfish haters and support their candidate when they show no respect for others positions and opinions. Obama followers behave like kids without political maturity based on emotions.

Besides I am not sure that Obama is the real new kind of politician he is painting himself he is.

I am sick of how the republicans are doing things. They have used scare tactics long enough to stay in office. The American people are not stupid. I have to be honest, the only reason I voted for Bush is because we were in the middle of the war. Looking back 4 years, not much has changed, except more people are now dead. He's saying Obama is offering appeasement, thats bull and he knows it. Wasn't he the president during the worst terror attack in history? We are so much safer because of him. Whatever!! The world has a more negative view of us than ever before. So instead of having one or two groups after us, now there are a lot more because of Bush. Bush and McCain are not making us safer. They are making us more unsafe because all of our troops are in Iraq fighting a civil war that will never end. We need to be fighting the root of our problems in Afganistan like Obama has said.

I think everyone who supports Hillary or McCain should stop posting here, and let all you Obama people just compliment each other, and that way we would take away your "kicking tree" and you will get bored believe you me, you will get bored

Congratulations to all, and thank you so much 'John Edwards for your powerful words and the very valuable support and endorsement for the next president of United States, 'Barak Obama'.

Can you hear it! It's the sound of all of those blue collar workers doing the right thing! Go Barack!

As if people will support who the organization they belong to will support! Give the individual voter a little more credit CNN.

By the way, I'll be winning a gold medal in the marathon this summer olympics . Obama has inspired me to claim I can do things I have no personal precedence for doing or history of doing. For example, claiming to bring people together when he has never actually bought anyone together in his political career, etc... (He has proven that he can do a great job of tearing the democratic party apart)

Did I forget to mention that I have trouble walking much less running a marathon.

Obama = worst choice to be democratic nominee!

Hillary do not accept a VP nod. You deserve to be the nominee.

To some Hillary supporters: I still do not understand why you are so hateful and angry. A "game" was played between teams with one team winning...Michigan and Florida will be worked out. Please examine your feelings closely and work on being happier and supportive of the eventual nominee for the Democratic party...I'm sure the Clinton's will ask that of you...

Did I hear the news-media and a lot of Hillary supporters say that John Edwards endorsement wouldn't mean any thing?

Now we need John Edwards delegates!

Wos! 600,000 steel workers ---– welcome to the "O" Team!

And......................... thank you for joining us!

Another group of mis-led constituents–hoping to further their own socialist goals.

Who says he doesn't accept special interest money. If you take a look at the socialist orgainizations who've flocked to him–you'd think differently.

The new American credo: Long live the socialist democratic party of America. Visit our website, capitalism sucks.

I bet Mickey Mouse will be endorsing Obama next....after all Obama is living in a dream fantasy world.

I hope we as democrats can come together around a candidate. More endorsements = more party unity.

Congratulations to all, and thank you so much 'John Edwards for your powerful words and a very valuabale support and endorsement for the next president of United States, 'Barak Obama'.

Way to go Obama!

Yes we Can!

Thank you Steelworkers Union and welcome on the winning team.

All Sen. Clinton’s supporters that said they will vote for McCain in general election. Please do us (Sen. Obama supporters) a favor. Vote for him and stop telling us. If McCain win, he will select 2 or 3 new Supreme Court judges and they will over turn WOMAN right to choose. Do not blame us Sen. Obama supporters. You should blame yourself and please explain that to your daughter(s) and their daughter(s) why woman can not choose anymore.

Remember Supreme Court Judges are appointed for life. All of you can kiss pro-choice good-bye. Moreover, do not try to bully us (Sen. Obama supporters). If he does not win in 2008, we will vote for him again in 2012 and we will not support Sen. Clinton if you run again in 2012. I support woman right to choose.

600,000 Union Members does not indicate that all will support Obama, I am sure that more than 300,000 of these same union members have and will support H.R. Clinton.

And as far as John Edwards is concerned he has had his 10 seconds of SHAME, and it is time to retire himself and his $4,000.00 hair cuts....

This is great news welcome to the the Camp Pittsburg Union Steelworkers. You made great decison to support Obama and help get the message about to other Blue Colar Workers also. I'm sure you will do great measures for the camp.

"Obama 08 enough said."

And? This nomination has come down to the superdelegates. A lot of the superdelegates know who the stronger candidate is (Hillary) but they are afraid of a "Black" backlash if they pick her. Well they should be more worried of a "Woman" backlash!

We need to give the Clinton supporters their grieving time. If they are true Dems, they surely wouldn't vote for McCain out of spite.

Time to Unite

Great Point Goddie! And they say West Virginia was a big win?

Nice to see the two time loser join the future loser, Obama. Edwards adds his name to the list of other Obama supporters who are also losers like Ted Kennedy, John Kerry, and Bill Richardson. The only democrat who has actually won the White House over the last 25 years, Bill Clinton, supports who? His wife and the strongest candidate in the race, Hillary Clinton.

The 600,000-member strong union had previously backed former Democratic presidential candidate John Edwards,
-------

Says it all right there.

They really know how to endorse a loser.

I never really understood endorsements. How many people actually vote based on endorsements? I also see how great you Obama supporters are being to the Clinton supporters......its a great way to unify the party after you still continue to spew hate towards them by calling them idiots, racists, etc.

It's about time we endorsed him.

Huffingtonpost reported HIllary hired black supporters. Why on EARTH would she need to HIRE BLACK people for her Rallies?

IS she trying to 'hire negros' again?

We have DEMOCRATS who say they won’t vote for OBAMA, but we have just as many REPUBLICANS. who say they will. Just something to think about for you CLINTON SUPPORTS who won’t support OBAMA.

Sounds like an EVEN TRADE TO ME, except the cross over REPUBLICANS is getting the better part of the deal. Just my 2 cents or 1.

Now is the time to SHANK HANDS, KISS and make up to get ahead of the game.

Obama 08!

Oh goodie... A legalized version of the mob back Obama!

GOD I don't care – just get the republicans outta there already!!! Every day Bush is allowed to open his mouth its an embarrasment.

Obama has done a tremendous snow job on Americans who voted
for him, Heaven help us on what is going to happen.

Hillary sold out the steel workers to a country it seems I cant mention on the blog because it will be automatically put in moderation.

Yes, because writing in Hillary won't make John McCain your President at all. Everything would just change...sheesh. It sucks your candidate is not the winner. I know it does. But, do you want another 8 years of George Bush in office? Because that is what McCain is...

Obama/Clinton 08

Unstoppable ticket.!!!!!!!!!!!!!

LOSERS!!!

The only people still voting for Clinton are republican. 270,000 registered Democrats in WV. 330,000 voted in the Democracit primary. Gee thats a hard one to figure out.

Welcome aboard steel workers. You made the right choice.

I'm waiting on Clintons endorsement now!! YES WE CAN! OBAMA 08, 12

Hey Hillary supporters! NOW can we all just get along?? HE WILL OFFER THE SAME POLICIES!! He will keep YOU in mind and make these changes to benefit YOU!

write her name on the ballot!!!! Hillary!!! I cant vote for a crooked man like Obama.... Not after REV. Wright... Never ... Never... Sad thing is many Americans feel this way....

Way to go Edwards!! This big. Real Big. Goodbye Hillary.

Hopefully John Edwards will play a large part serving in the next Democratic administration. -– Way to go, John.

I would just like to say let's just hurry up and get this over with so we can move on with the big Nov election. Also please let's come together Democrats. Let's put Obama in the white house. Also he can call me baby, sweetie, honey, suga pie, and anything else. Hell just call me!

Great to see that a new group is coming on board and trying to unite America behind Obama. Only fools would believe that Obama can't win the election and attract the majority of Americans come November. Just look at what Bush has said about Obama's desire to talk with both our supporters in the world and our enemies. My, God, that's how you gain respect and make progress! Bombs are NOT the answer nor are idle threats! Perhaps if Bush and the Republicans had listened more and acted less hastily we wouldn't be in such chaos now. I just can't fathom that America will turn to McCain for leadership. Have you watched the man and listened to him? I'm often afraid he will draw a complete blank before he realizes what he wants to say. Now, that's comforting! As Hillary specifically said a couple days ago, anyone who does not support Obama in the November election (should he be the nominee) is foolish. Couldn't agree more!!!

Goldie
how many of those will he win in November?
How many of the one he does win will be wiped out when McCain wins Fl, OH and PA?

welcome aboard

GOD BLESS OUR TROOPS
PRESIDENT OBAMA
THE GREAT PEOPLE OF THE USA
and down with trader bush

Welcome aboard ladies and gentlemen. White House here we come!!! Obama 08

lets get change in washington and feed our children, take care of our sick, and as a vet take care of those who fought for our country. the mcbush party is the coldest out of touch party in the world and i was one of them. went to church and listened to feed the hunger,etc and then a government that attacks countries with no reason and i bought into the iraq war because of 911–but bush/mccain/clinton had access to the reports that showed us not to attack Iraq.

Do any of these union endorsements really make a difference anymore? I'm not so sure that they do. It looks good on a candidates resume' but american workers are pretty independent thinkers who have other issues that may be more important to them then what their union rep tells them to do on election day.

President George W Bush is starting his politics of fear again when he says Obama wants appeasment of terrorist Obama wants 'appeasement' of terrorists
Obama said time and time again that the old politics of fear just wont do, not this time.

Don't hate; appreciate!

Let Hillary's spin doctors try and top this....we're all hard working people and glad to have you on the side of change.....thanks.

BADA BING!

In reply to the comment about the unioins doing no good, I just have to point out this: you would not have weekends off work if wasn't for the labor movement. Your children would still be working in sweat shops instead of you. The situation the country is in with global everything wouldn't have happened with strong unions, which people who think like you weakened. All the people in this country who were jealous of auto workers making great wages helped weaken the wages and rights of workers in this country.

That'll be one NICE-LOOKING, diverse White House!

President Barack Obama.
Vice-President John Edwards.
Secretary of State Bill Richardson (keep the beard please!).

I just wanted to lighten the mood today after President Idiot spoke today.

It was less than a year ago that it was said he could not do it; this is in the bag and will be over by the end of February. All political leaders should take note, the American Voting Public has put you all on notice. How you might ask? By a simple overwhelming statement that Performance is the key to your success and your political future.

Steelworkers = Blue Collar Workers

What's your excuse now Hillary?

Obama/Bloomberg 08

Welcome aboard the Obama Express. Next stop, the White House.

Obama/Edwards '08

I think its time for the DEMS to unite behind our candidate.

Soon the Clinton baking republicans will say those Steelworkers what losers.

Good~!!!

1600 delegates for Obama presently, 1600 pennsylvia avenue white house , Obama 2008.

According to Politico.com.....Obama is leading in superdelegates by 18.

Since NC the spread has been going in Obama's favor. It should all be over with by the end of the month.

I'm done

Obama will get the blue-collar vote. It is a political ploy to make us believe that he can't. The Republicans will try to make this election about personality because John McCain is a respectable war veteran. But after the drama of the democratic nomination is over people will vote on the issues. Most Americans are not racist. When it comes down to it most people will look at their gas prices, John McCain's ridiculous health plan, the idea of losing their homes, and this ridiculous war that has claimed the lives of so many dedicated young people. They will vote for change.

He's winning in states that will stay republican. It's a no brainer. McCain will beat him up in the GE.

Great for Obama! I am very happy to see that John Edwards endored him. I just hope that he picks John Edwards as his running mate not Clinton. it has been proven if Obama picks Clinton as his running he will be over shadowed by the Clintons. It would ruin his presidency!
John Edwards is suppose to campaigan with Obama up to the election in November.
Go Obama – or Obama and Edwards – 08

Wohooo, we like people in this camp !!!!

So where are the super delegates today ??

I am shocked. CNN is actually report an Obama endorsement. They only mentioned Edwards endorsement yeaterday because all other media networks were trumpeting it.

There ya go!!!

OBAMA/EDWARDS 08/12

Thank you steel workers union. You do valuable hard work.

where were they during the PA primary???? endorse now since you know he is going to be the nominee! thx a lot.

The media has kept fanning the flame that the Democratic Party will be divided in the fall. Here is one more indication that the media is once again wrong! They have been wrong a great many times during this election season. The Democratic Party will unite behind Barack Obama and many, many independents and dissatisfied Republicans will support him as well. We NEED real change in this country and everyone – except John McCain – knows it!

.............Yes.. thank you hard working blue collar workers.............

........Yes...We...Can..... 2008 is our for a new direction for America....

Steel support is the most reliable support in any construction!

SKYJUICE WAS RIGHT: Joshua Denton of Portsmouth JUST ENDORSED OBAMA. 2 SO FAR, 3 MORE TO GO

To Mar:
Do you understand what you read? The article clearly states that the 600,000-member strong Union had previously endorsed Sen. JOHN EDWARDS.
Way to go Barack!!!

Great news..!!! I read an blog entry yesterday from a disturbed man from "Klan-tucky" his words not mine.. he was spouting very hateful, violent threats against Obama.. I worry for Barack and his family's safety.. if you support Barack please send some prayers and good thoughts for him.. there are allot of crazies out there.

All dang! Clinton supporter are gonna start hating steel now...

They're probably outside kicking their cars right now...

Stop it! stop it!

Thank You!
You will not go wrong in your support for Obama. We will see change, we will see inclusiveness, we will see an America with integrity, grace and dignity! GO OBAMA

Good

YES WE CAN!! WELCOME ABOARD!!
OBAMA 08

Way to go Obama! you are the best. Please ask Senator Edward to be your VP. This will be a great idea.

HM
Florida

Too bad that didn't happen before the Pennsylvania primary. Obama could have used those mill-hunks. Looks like his base is broadening to the blue collar workers that have eluded him so far.

Obama 08

Barack Obama must now pick John Edwards for VP and Bill Richardson for foreign affairs.

Well done guys

America is at it's best when the unions says YES. Right on union brothers and sisters.
Teamsters 4 Obama

I guess Hillary did not know how obama was going to nullify her
win in West Virginia (Big win Small state remember that)Now he
is slowly but surely taking her surrogates and supporters from her
if she don't jump on board soon this is going to be a lot more painful
than Hillary, Bill, and Chelsea thought.... Hah!!!!!Come on jump on board that obama train cause they know it is going to happen just
listen to how nice her supporters talke about obama now.....They are
so nice!!!!

The self serving rational of some of many of the people on here. If it does not go your way, it was not worth having. Quite a good attitude. Sort of like the self denial going on in the Whit House. Back up your words and vote McCain. Words are cheap. Remember, actions speak louder than words. If the Hillary and Obama supporters really believed in them, they would do what the losing candidate askes them to do. Both have said that their supporters should support the other. I guess there are many of you who know more than the candidate you are supporting. Vote Republican and make you candidate real proud of you.

Good news. Now President Obama, get in McCain's face about his flip-flopping

So that gives him an extra 600,000 people for the popular vote.

I don't care what kind of twisted math you do in Florida or Michigan, that erases any lead Clinton could claim to have.

Thank you to the Steelworkers union. The Democrats are taking Washington back from the Republicans. Ahhhhhh, hahahahaha

I love it!

Thank you!!!!

PA is waking up ...
Steelworkers are one of the hardest hit group by the unfair trade agreements strongly supported by both Bill and Hillary.

That's why Hillary favors photo opportunities with firefighters, because their jobs are not in as much a danger as steelworkers or any other economic-sensitive groups.

And they keep coming:) Time to UNITE DEMOCRATES! White House here we come!

OBAMA '08

How many ex-Presidential campaigners are supporting Hillary? Zero, that's how many. They've seen the real Hillary behind the scenes are only being nice to her in hopes that she will not attempt to destroy the Democrats chances in the general election. They know how unstable Hillary is and they are scared of her. They see how many naive supporters she has that actually believe her fake tears and "soft" moments. This lady is ruthless, mean, and unstable. I hope to see a women President sometime soon, but this woman is not the one.

Welcome aboard......I hope you are able to pull the rest of PA during the general election. when you see John King do the majic board they usually first give a scenario of how the states have gone in the past and then he does a scenario of how Obama has changed that and what states might be in play this year. It's wonderful how John breaks that down. If you are a democrat, but you vote for repulican for hatred that hillary didn't get the nominee than you dont represent hillary or her values at all. it's sad that amercians are on blogs declaring their betrayal of the democratic party just because you dont like obama. i rather you stay home, but to vote for more war, worse economy, tax breaks for the rich only, no universal healthcare than you deserve your vote to be stripped.

The end is coming, pack up Hill(BILLi) Clinton, Nov 08 next stop. OBAMA 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well they should be blue collar.Welcome to the winning team.

Here's a message for a number of the American people out there. Judge one not by the color of their skin, but by the content of their character. I have been reading into several of the comments on these blogs and find that most people will vote against their own economic and social interest because Obama is black (technically black and white).

People that's why we can't move this country and the world forward and it's a shame.

Wake up people, we can do better and it starts within you.

Alright! Way to GO!

Oh my! These "elitists" are jumping on board. Hillary was supposed to be the woman of steel, but that bucket of water the unions have thrown on her in Hillaryland of Oz really melted her political demise.
Guess all her "mettle" was manufactured like everything else about her.

How many could there be? I thought all their jobs had been sent overseas.

YEAH!! Now that's a group that Hill would typically claim as hers. May folks are finally catching on to her – and her HISTORY. She has walked away from on scandal after another ~ whitewater, pardons, travelgate, filegate and the Roase Law Firm ~ others have been prosecuted and some have gone to jail. She must be well connected!

GO OBAMA!!

Not too unexpected once Edwards came out in support of Obama. I hope the 19 pledged delegates follow Edwards lead and back Obama as well.

ROLL UP A JOINT!

OBAMA '08

We are consolidating our forces and preparing to take on McBush in the general election.

Democrats Unite!!!

Yes! Yes! OBAMA 08!!!!!!

A good product needs no hard sale. My dear Barack, over 140million Nigerians are backing you as well.

Hillary, you've done well but its time to see the future in your daughter she might be the next clinton to enter the white house.

You see where this is headed.... 1600 Penn. Av.

This is pretty big – it highlights the effect of Edwards' endorsement, even at this late stage. The door has closed for Hillary, there is absolutely no way she can reverse Obama's momentum at this point.

Barack Obama will now be known as "The man of steel!" Nice ring to it.

Awesome. Let's come together democrats, independents, and Obamacans and rally behind the nominee!

obama/rev. wright, bill ayers '08

That's too bad... wink, wink.....

Latest Democratic Presidential Poll: Obama over Clinton by 9 points. His lead is growing and will continue to do so. It is over for Hillary, anybody giving her money for her campaign now is only paying off her debts. She is only claiming that she will still win because she needs the money. How many idiots out there are still giving her money? Hillary mismanaged her money big time and those giving her money now are only paying off the debts of the loser. Way to waste your money, she cannot win but those of you donating to her are to naive to see through that. Get some help.

The Edwards endorsement is important. If not for the movement of his followers but for the pleadged delegate he has. While there is no guarantee they will now cide with Obama. There is a great chance they will. That said, those delgates and a few more SD endorsements may push Obama to 2026 PRIOR to the May 31 DNCC meeting.

If that occurs the race is over and Obama will officially be declared the winner.

the only endorsement recieved by mccain is gw bush.hillary,step aside,so we can get after the inept repubs.

This does not mean anything.., i bet more than half of those members support clinton anyways.

In my opinion i feel obama is terrified from what took place in WV, and its pretty sad that edwards has to run to his rescue, just like many others did. Shame on the DNC and their corrupt way of doing things. It clearly makes no sense how they seem obama fit be the leader, and all signs point to this.

WOW You would think with CNN posting only negative things about Obama and keeping Clinton in the press....well only the POSITIVE things about Clinton in the press and "forgetting" all of the negatives and still unanswered questions she STILL HAS NOT ADDRESSED, NO one likes Obama.

I guess CNN isn't as influential as it had hoped.

The demograhics will start to change and the blue-collar workers will eventually support over.........slow.........but they will come just like the political delegates. McCain is just a derviative of the Bush Administration, and America has had enough lip service for the last eight years.......time to move.......time to change......time to hope for a better nation.

Arent' they blue collar workers?

OH SHE HAS HIM RIGHT WHERE SHE WANTS HIM NOW!

We put all our trust in you OBAMA!!!DON"T LET US DOWN!!!!

Things continue to look good. Obama 08

And they said Edwards Endorsement was nothing .. boy were they wrong .......

John McCain, the moderate president of the USA.

No more liberal threats to our security about talking to terrorists, no more scandal about religious radicals, no more scandal about sub-prime mortgage loans and oil execs, no more messianic craze, no more bickering about primary candidates, no more DNC bias, no more CNN bias.

2013 is going to be a good year with John McCain as our sensible and moderate president.

George Bush can be his attack dog in this presidential race. John is a president that will unite all of Americans. The one two punch that will knock out Barack Obama.

Write in Hillary Clinton in November.....

The media goes on about Clinton's big win, not telling viewers that the reason Obama is ahead is that he won big in 15 states. Why are those states not important like West Virginia? I found this chart that sums it up:
Barack Obama: 15 States + DC

* Virgin Islands (89.9%)
* Idaho (79%)
* Hawaii (76%)
* Alaska (75%)
* District of Columbia (75%)
* Kansas (74%)
* Washington (68%)
* Nebraska (68%)
* Minnesota (67%)
* Colorado (67%)
* Georgia (67%)
* Illinois (65%)
* Virginia (64%)
* Maryland (62%)
* North Dakota (61%)
* Wyoming (61%)
* Mississippi (61%)

Hillary Clinton: 2 States
* Arkansas (70%)
* West Virginia (67)
___________

Wow, three huge endorsements in 2 days... Congrats to President Obama!

GOBAMA!

I think they endorsed him during the primarys and it did no good. Lots of hot air...

Time to take the White House from the religious fanatics.

Obama 08 , Please Mrs.Clinton jump aboard !

Hillary is a shmuck. She is a liar, a manipulator, and a criminal. She's is lucky she's not in jail after all of her scandals. I will give her this, she's smart to be able to wiggle her way out all her and Bill's controversies this far. She is the last thing the US needs right now. We already have a criminal in office, we don't need another one.

WELCOME!

let's go obama!!!!!!!!!!!

You go boy!!

Obama '08

way to go!

WELCOME ABOARD!
