my inspiration is to not to vote for very first time. Obama did not inspire me to anything. Sorry. And I am not alone.

As always Welcome. BUT you should have done it long ago!

Look out Democrats for the Republicans throwing hateful remarks against Obama and Hillary. Democrats unite!!!

CNN, are you going to post every single endorsement? Can't you just say "every Democrat and celebrity in the Free worl endorses Obama" and get it over with??

his plan IS NOT universal healthcare, go to any developed country to learn what UNIVERSAL healthcare IS. I speak from experience as European born and raised there for 17 years.

Go Barack!! Counting down! A few more delegates to go!

Obama 08

DEMOCRATS UNITE!!!

Clinton SUPPORTERS< Obama SUPPORTERS, UNITE!!! It would be a betrayal against Clinton and/or Obama to vote for McCain or write-in!!!

VOTE DEMOCRAT IN THE FALL NO MATTER WHAT!!! PUT YOUR DIFFERENCES ASIDE!!!

DEMOCRATS 2008!!!

Obama/Hillary 08

Its time to unite and the only way is with the 2 of them on the ticket.

Obama supporters want us Hillary supporters to unite, but when people talk about a ticket with the 2 of them you guys freak out and say you will not vote for that ticket. So tell me again Who is destroying our party?

I have been upset about Hillary not winning and I was going to vote McCain, But I just cant do it. But what would help me and many others with this hard time is to UNITE the 2 of them on 1 ticket!

Thank you Mr. Stark !!!! Keep the supers rolling in.

Lets get to the White House and restore some dignity to America!

OBAMA: THE NEXT PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES!!!!!

When are you going to add this new super delegate to Barack Obama's column. What is the point of announcing it and then holding the delegate numeric count the same? Hoping to change California Rep. Stark's mind?Optically this new delegate adds a huge boost to the campaign– so why not be consistent. It is what makes you the best news team on the ground,too.

Welcome!

Obama '08!

YES WE CAN
YES WE WILL

Welcome and thank you! I think we all think it is time to unite and face the common enemy - McCain's war loving foreign policy ideas!

Thanks Mr. Stark. Welcome on board.

Obama has captured something…but we don't have a clue to what it is!!

Goodbye Obama…You will never make it to the White House…with or without Hillary's endorsement!!

Go Hillary..

If not Hillary…then McCain.

I wouldn't even vote for Obama if Hillary was his VP choice.

Where there is unity; there is strength.

Obama 08

welcome good sir. he's right. time to unify!

Obama '08

That guy looks SCARY!! Just like Obama!!

Yeah Stark this is unifying the party by all the Stupids voting before all the primaries are done and then the rules committee doesn't have to deal with Florida and Michigan. Boy you Dumbocrats are going to have a rude awakening this Nov.

Obama '08

The ONLY one who can Beat McCain in November !

Tell me again how Stark respects Clinton. Do any of you remember the Anita Hill case? He didn't show any respect there why should anyone lisson to him now. He gets his kicks out of ganging up on the ladies . I don't see anything to brag about, with him supporting Obama.

welcome sir!!!

Come on everybody and unite with the Obama Campaign!

Hate Hate Hate 2008
Hate Hate Hate 2008
Hate Hate Hate 2008

Hate Hillary
Hate McCain
Hate America
Hate Hate Hate

Obama '08

a litte too late but is better than never.
He endorse the right person .

Keep em' coming !!!!

OBAMA 08′/12′

So happy to hear that!!! The more superdelegates, the better! Go Obama!

Funny. Hillary started out as the front-runner and led by over 100 superdelegates. Now, not so much. Popular vote: Obama. Pledged delegates: Obama. Superdelegates: Obama.

NO SOUP FOR YOU HILLARY!

This has to be an epic meltdown. Clinton just doesn't resonate enough with people. They don't trust her as far as they can throw her and that is a problem, whether she wants to admit it or not. Amazingly, I think she still has the opportunity to bow out gracefully.

Come on in sir, the water is fine.

Thank you Mr. Stark!

To all of the people who voted for George Bush and the Democratic deflectors why would we ever vote for another president who does not believe in diplomacy? People who believe that we can fix the economy, education or anything else while spending billions of dollars on this war are delusional.

Look at John McCain's health (don't) care plan. This man is not the maverick he once was. He is another 3rd term Bush. I know Clinton supporters are dissapointed but you need to vote with your head not with your heart. HRC is a loyal democrat. She will not run as an independent or encourage this ridiculous write-in notion. She will support the democratic nominee as should everyone who cares about our country!!

Obama Supporter-
what are you trying to say? It sounds like you represent what Obama is all about… if that is your point then I'm with you.

McCain '08 for Clinton '12
Obama, well,never
The MOVEMENT has begun…

i saw on CNN yesterday that there are a lot of women who feel VERY strongly about Hillary's losing and that we should expect them to default to McCain should she not be the nominee. Outside, i can say I'd understand your anger.. but on the inside i am screaming "dont let this be your reason!!" the reason most of you are voting for Hillary is the stark contrasts between her and McCain(or at least it should be)…..so to vote for him out of spite…well that wouldn't accomplish very much. Both Democratic Senators are voices of change…something you will not be gettingfrom McCain..or it may be a change we will deathly regret!

I posted this an hour ago on the article about Edwards turning down obama fo VP….obamage gets spewed at a rate of 10:1 over anyone else why is that? Happens with CNN and MSNBC. Its amazing how obamabiased the media is…..

FedUpDem May 16th, 2008 11:25 am ET
Your comment is awaiting moderation.
LOL….don't you obamidiots get it?
Edwards is now trying Hillarys playbook.
Let obama have the nomination and, after 4 years of McCain, run for the presidency. Neither Edwards or Clinton is STUPID enough to go down in flames with obama in November.

Backing the one that doesn't pretend to have a magic wand to make your fairy tale come true…McCain 08……then HRC2012

McCain is a complete idiot. He has no clue to what the heck is going on.

Did McCain say 2013?

I don't think it would be a betrayal to vote for McCain if Hillary isn't the nominee. I think it would be a betrayal for America to vote for the likes of Obama.

fred must really have a man crush on Obama

CNN, why is it that there are people whose legitimate comments don't get posted, and yet you let these crazy idiots flame all over the place about "hate" and other such nonsense? I come here to participate in dialogue…this isn't myspace. What the heck?

I am a True Republican. But i am tired of these Conservative Republicans who spread hate all over. People like Rush Limbaugh, hannity make me sick.

That is why I am voting for Democrats even though I do not believe in Democrats policies

I think what McCain is doing is absolutely fine. We cannot bring troops back soon like Obama is saying. McCain is a great guy.

I think Democrats should unite and get rid of people like Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh..

Vote for McCain is vote for these idiots who have spread so much of hate in the US

Refer to "Kevin James in Hardball (you will see what true Conservative Republicans are like)

Fred please take your pathetic claim and move to another country. If you cannot see how far and away McCain is from Clintons and the democratic ticket, and are going to cry that if not Hillary then you will vote for McCain, then go join the GOP. We do not want or need you if you are truly that stupid. "If my candidate can't get in office, I will take 4 more years if Bush".

You are probably one of the morons who voted for a 2nd term Bush because you didn't want gays getting married. Congrats! We now have $4 gas, a war with no exit plan, and an economy plummeting—but by god Chuck & Larry can't get married.

Good choice you dinkus.

Keep em coming! Many more from here in California should step to the plate for the benefit of the party.

The hateful comments from both sides should just be ignored. This has been a hard fought campaign, and though the fat lady hasn't sung, she's warming up. If you don't want to vote for Obama if he wins, don't. But don't snivel when MCain doesn't do anything other than give vanilla speeches that steal the Democratic Party's ideals, all while doing nothing for spiking fuel, healthcare, and living costs. Don't whine when the draft is re-started (McCain has said he'll do this as soon as he gets into office) and your sons and daughters go to war, over and over again (the average miltary member serves 3 tours in Iraq or Afghanistan). Don't whine as nothing changes.

At least Barack is going to give change a shot. He has a very well-run campaign that has beaten back the Clinton Machine. Here is a guy who is "inexperienced in politics" and yet beat some of the most experienced political tigers (the Clintons) at their own game. Do you know what that means to me? He knows how to find good people, put them in the right jobs where they'll be most effective, and get them to work, all with a budget that's in the black. That's what a good president does. My vote was for Hillary. It is now for Barack. But if Hillary winds up the nominee through some magic. I will vote for her. Democratic Party O8!!!!

Obama has inspired me more than any political figure has before. I am 20 years old and never cared about politics until Obama came into the picture. He has inspired millions of people to come out and vote and care about our country– and he will be an amazing president.
Now the Democrats need to unite and come together so we don't have another Bush in office. And for you Hillary supporters that are saying "MCCAIN OVER OBAMA"– if you truly supported the Democratic party you would realize that McCain is exactly opposite of what Clinton stands for. She has even said it her self– it would be a terrible mistake to do that.. so open your eyes and come together.

Obama 08 & 12

I look forward to the Demcrats in November with their heads hanging low because Obama loses the Presidency. Then all of these disloyal Clinton back stabbers will have something to think about over the next four years. The Democrats are the perfect example of insanity; they do the same thing over and over again, choose the left-wing liberal as the nominee, and then expect a different result.

They have not learned the lesson that America will not pick the liberal as a President. The Superdelegates are suppose to vote for what is best for the party and not just pick the guy who is inspirational. Being inspirational is subjective. I am not inspired by Barack Obama at all, he actually makes me want to scream that he is such a fake and has fooled people. He is just a typical politician.

So although Hillary will not get the nomination in 2008, she will in 2012 after the Democratic Party learns their lesson, once again.

Give an idiot a little power & they will walk into walls with it!!!!!!!!!

This is exactly as it should be. I will admit BO is is not experienced, but none of the candidates have experience doing the job they are running for. None have been president before although Hilary claims to have filled the job by osmosis. Things are progressing very nicely toward OB winning the nomination, and there are hordes of bitter (yes i said it) racist people deluding themselves into thinking that it's okay to hide behind reverend wright or hide behind the bitter comment as reasons not to vote for a black man. reverend wright told the truth about HIS experience he does not speak for the nation nor for the candidate and white people haven't been that nice to him (as evidenced by the huge hulabaloo made by the media over his comments) And people DO cling to religion in times of hardship, guns, never had the desire to own one because people kill people WITH GUNS! Why is it that people can tell the truth as long as the truth doesn't offend anyone.
OBAMA for President!

And this one didn't go through either, will the obamerators, I mean moderators, please TRY and be even handed, I know its hard when you're an obamidiot but sheeeshh…..

What happened to the obamidiots whine about SD's voting as their constituents did? Oh thats right it's okay when it goes your way….can you smell your hypocrisy? You are a prefect reflection of your candidate.

McCain08

HRC 2012

Nobama now or ever!

jimmy, my name is jimmy too and I'm an Obama supporter, I'll be sure to cancel out your vote by voting for Obama!

it seems to me by seeing all this "white male/female" superdelegates speak so highly of Obama and so many of them are endorsing him, it makes me think why is Obama having a hard time getting the "white, blue collar, hardworking white people's vote"……the more i think about it, more i think there's a large percentage of white america who made up in their minds in 1957 they would never vote for a "barak obama"….and it trickles down to their kids and grandkids sometimes….african americans has always had no one else to vote for other than jesse jackson and they are excited for this opportunity. i dont blame them for being 95% for Obama, it's great. but blacks are only about 14% of the us population, so hello, it's the white people have carried him and put him over the top. that's amazing. i was a mike huckabee supporter and obama won me over. God bless him dearly. ONE NATION UNDER GOD, INDIVISIBLE WITH LIBERTY AND JUSTICE FOR ALL!

Barack sweetie, honey, sugar muffin, condescending elitist, won't be able to handle the Presidency. He'll be like a deer in the headlights.

I don't care if Obama becomes Pres or not. I just want to stop Slick Hillie and her lies. I am not sure why everyone keeps saying she is a good person. What has she done that is so good? And her supporters stink too.

CNN, please keep reporting these endorsements. They are after all, just that, NEWS……Although some posters have advised you not to post these endorsements, by not doing so, our media would begin to look like outlets in other oppressive countries.

I like the postings because it allows myself, somewhat new to the political scene, to get to know the politicians supporting these candidates (whether Obama or Clinton). For posters who do not like these postings, sorry you do not like the results. Perhaps you should blog on postings you like and avoid the postings that do not reflect your thinking.

WEREN'T THE SUPER DELEGATES SUPPOSED TO ENDORSE THE WILL OF THE PEOPLE IN THEIR STATE? STARK, I THINK YOU NEED TO READ UP ON THIS. THANK GOD EDWARDS WILL NOT RUN WITH OBAMA, THEN WE WOULD HAVE TWO IDIOTS ON THE DEMOCRATIC BALLOT.
SUPER DELEGATES, NEWS MEDIA, RUSH TO HILLARY, A SAFE AND SANE CHOICE!

The fat lady is beginning to sing for Hillary Clinton! Please Hilary - don't run for President again!

"…he advocates universal health care, and he delivers a message …"

Clarification: Hillary is the one who advocates universal health care, not Obama.

Yes, Obama delivers a message. And that's all he has done. Where are the accomplishments and accolades to back up his bluster and gravitas? Sounds like one empty suit clinging onto another empty suit.

Notice how it has taken an entire day for Obama to respond to Bush's comments about Hamas, while Hillary THREW DOWN with just a few well-worded, off-the-cuff remarks? Oh, that's right… he needed his speech writer and advisory team to craft each word. Just what we need in a leader…

THANK YOU, Mr. Stark! We're on our way…..

What?! Iron Man endorsed Obama?!

Haha kidding.

Go Obama!

Can you call up your other colleagues to do the same so we can make this thing real quick.

All Nigerians say thank you.

MT,

You need to vote!!!!!!!!!!!!! I don't care which way you vote. It is your job as an American. I know i can't inspire you to vote but you should think about it and don't let anyone tell you how to vote.

Every single Democrat can vote for Obama and he still won't win. The Electoral College elects the President. He will not win in PA, OH, WV, KY, FL, TX, NV and others and so, he will not win.

I suspect we will witness a landslide victory for McCain.

No one will be to blame for this more than the man himself. He has divided the Democratic Party and plays dirty politics while claiming not to.

I agree, let's unite the party and get the idiot Republicans out of the White House!

Signed,
Former Idiot Republican

Hey Fred, you are on all the blogs yelling; if not Hillary than McCain. Quit telling us and just do it!!! SO WHAT!!!

It's clear that blogger 'fred' is quite intelligent and should be running for the white house himself.

Write in fred '08!

When I see McCain's speeches, I see a old man.

Yes, it appears the DNC have chosen Obama as their nominee.

It's ok with us… however, it will not entice us to vote for him on any ticket, because we Hillary supporters feel that the DNC has treated her shabbily. And it's not because we're sore losers either! We just don't believe Obama has the credentials and qualifications needed for such an important office, at such a pivotal time.

We won't take a chance on an intern. Too much is at stake.

TROLL! Troll in the blogosphere!

Just thought you'd like to know

~faints~

Congrats to Dems. For those who are sad concerning Hillary, don't let the GOP divide us! See limbaugh CHAOS for detail and manipulation.

Obama fans ,

look cnn posted it . NOW STOP CRYING

FELLOW DEMOCRATS…..whether it's Obama or Clinton…..WE MUST UNITE!!!!
PLEASE THINK ABOUT OUR COUNTRY AND STOP HATING!!!!

Hey mt…The comment made that Barack inspired young voters is a general statement. If you were not inspired by him and "your not alone" fine but dont show your age with silly comments like that. Come on. Not even Jesus was all things to all people.

My only question is his ref. to Hillary's many years of service? Good God she hasn't completed her second term yet. With any luck NY won't be stuck with her for a 3rd and she'll disappear into the dark.

Obama/Richardson is a great ticket.
Obama/Edwards is not and I am glad Edwards agreed.

It is not a betrayal if you choose one over the other for the good of our country, but it may be a betrayal if you don't.

Mary May 16th, 2008 12:16 pm ET

Mary you sound like you are JEALOUS.

Get over yourself…

A little late but better than never. welcome and thanks for your support
now BRING OUR TROOPS home

why would anyone vote for Mcsame over Obama? I guess that you reallly love Bush then! If Clinton does not get the nominee then I am sure that Hill will vote for Obama, and so should you!!!! GET BUSH OUT

Mistake

Fred - you sound scarey - please keep your negative stuff to yourself. The people of this country are down enough without people like you pushing down further with your sophomoric remarks.

Please stop the negative stuff.

I'm not concerned by Senator Clinton's supporters saying they won't vote for Obama. I've seen way too many polls that show both Senator Clinton and Senator Obama beating Senator McCain. I believe either one of them will win in November. I think recent elections have shown there is a huge backlash against the Republicans, and it will carry over into November.

That aside, I do believe Democrats should unite. This bickering is pointless. It has gotten childish (actually, it got that way a long time ago), and supporters of BOTH sides are too blame.

Obama is as fake as the hair on Starks head. WTG DEMS. We can prance Obama around with McGovern,Kerry,Dukkakis and Gore. The losers club. What a sad day for the DNC.

To mt: You are what you are, and you should stay what you are. However, you'll soon realize that you should've boarded the Obama's Train.

Hillary is a party loyalist so she will ask her supporters to unite behind the Democratic nominee. As a Hillary supporter, I do not believe it will be that easy. Hillary supporters have attacked Obama on the issues, whereas Obama supporters consistently make vicious personal attacks against Hillary and Bill. Obama is winning, but his supporters are still so ungracious and disrespectful. The Democratic party does not deserve to win. They have let the media and haters "select" the Democratic voters. For the first time, experience and qualifications will have nothing to do with the candidate that will represent the Democratic party in the general election. Hillary has fought for civil rights, women rights, children rights, health care and the democratic party for over 30 years. If offered, I hope she does not accept the VP position because if Obama loses, she will be blamed. At this point, I really do not care if McCain wins the Presidency.

Cue all the "loser" comments from the Hillary supporters.

All the ones who are going for Obama when Clinton won their state should be ashamed of themself. The people of California voted for Clinton and not for Obama. He is not doing what a the will of of the people voted for. The DNC has screwed this Dem. Party up so bad that I will vote Republican from now on.

CNN, please update your popular delegate-counter website. I know it's hard, with new superdelegates coming on board the Obamawagon several times a day. But look at how many hits this site is getting. Many thousands of Americans know where the real election story is!

2 losers! Go Hillary!!!!!

Yeah! Keep them comin' boys and girls! Let's unite as one strong party. The Republicans will not stop us. For those who will write Hillarys name in or vote McCain over OBAMA but are supposed to be Democrats, you would be voting against the will of the party - WHICH MEANS…..YOU ARE UNDERCOVER REPUBLICANS AND WE DON'T NEED YOU ANYWAYS.

OBAMA 08/12

Being a foreigner, not even living in the US, I am somewhat concerned about the lack of correct information.
Obama just mentioned "the 60th anniversary of the 'independence' of Israel."
Well, it is not "independence" but "creation of the State of Israel." It was created in 1948. Israel did not exist as a state previously; therefore, it could not become independent. In fact, it has always been independent.

This is the reason why the Democratic party cannot win the presidency back! They have the 2 best candidates… what do they do?

The pit them against each other till they X each other out! They should have backed Hillary and groomed Obama to take over after. By that time, there will be no questions about his experience and credentials.

McCain is a moderate Republican, so it's not much of a move for some of us. He should consider Meg Whitman (founder, former CEO of EBay) as his running mate. SHE can fix the economy, and he can focus on foreign policy.

Welcome to the Obama family Stark.

Time for DEMS to UNITE THE CLANS!
It is not Hillary v Barack. It is us vs them. Let's take back this country from the valueless hate/war mongers of the Bush administration.

Democrats 08

Hey Fred! So you would rather vote for McBush if Clinton does not get the nod? You and others like you on both Clinton and Obamas side saying that is so dumb and porbably a bit hateful in some cases. Wake your behind up Fred!

Thank you sir: you are a smart man. The curtain is coming down. I want to introduce you to the next President of the United States of America; Barack Obama!!!!

O8AMA

Keep them coming and maybe my Tuesday we will reached the magic Number 2025 and get this General Election Going because we Need TO Defeat Mcsame! Democrats Unite

Welcome Rep. Stark.

To the supporters in here that say Obama didn't inspire them to vote, pay attention to the world, etc. are lying. By you simply taking the time to make comments on this website proves he inspired or made you pay attention in some way.

Calling all Delagates for BHO.

TOO MANY OBAMA JOCK STRAPS AROUND HERE.

If you want inspiration.

What kind of change will you get from an un-experience politician who will have to create a cabinet of experienced washington political insiders like, Kennedy and Kerry.

It would not be any different that Dubya and his cabinet.

Fortunately we won;t get that far. McCain will win in a landslide. The far left liberals just set off an issue in california that will bring out the Evangil vote.

Looks Like the old man is the next president.

Thanks Honey!

I for one am waiting to hear who Tony Stark endorses.

Hello everyone.
I'm a Hillary supporter but i'm a DEMOCRAT. i can't bear anymore Bush-Mccain politics..Clinton & obama are both democrats,and they cannot be compared with republicans..i want to see no-bush/mccain..so it's ok if its even Obama..
Dems UNITE

This is great and brings us closer to the end. I have to admit that Hillary's out of hand rejection of Bush's appeasement comments yesterday was inspiring and shows that she can be of great use during the general election campaigning for Barack and the democrats. I think she is coming to grips with reality and could possibly be gracious about this after all.

Hillary is every bit if not more liberal than Obama. Try educating yourself a little bit. You show nothing but ignorance.

Thank you Rep. Stark. We are delighted to have you on board. I just saw Obama in S. Dakota, and he hit Bush and McCain with every FAILURE in foreign policy. It was great. Bring it on McCain! Obama 08!

Welcome aboard Mr Stark!

Wow im still amazed idiots posting they'd vote for mccain if hillary looses… i wonder if thats the same republicans that go to the race to vote for hilary to keep the race running…

people missed the part where theirs 250k or so registered dems in WV.. but over 300k voted for the primary…

also you notice… everyone on CNN comments claims to be a democrat except for the few "democrats for mccain"

such bullcrap

Stark is an idiot. Go Hillary. Don't forget it is 2210 delegates. I think McCain ought to start calling Florida and Michigan and stating the Democrats don't like you but I love you. Vote Hillary or McCain.

Voting for Mccain out of grudge is simply the only way to allow Bush having his word to say in the white house, even after everyone thinks we finally got rid of him!

Please use common sense democrats, as most of those hate posts are viciously made by neocons and Limbaugh's garbage followers.

Democrats 08

How many endorsements has Sen. Clinton had recently? Less than five? Any at all?

Edwards doesnt want VP.. he wants Attorney General and thats where he belongs to straighten out that position finally!

LORD what happen to the will of the people in CA. I think there is a double standard on this WILL OF THE PEOPLE. I think the 17 million that has voted for HILLARY needs to stand up and say if she is not on this ticket somewhere we will vote another way. HEY maybe even get her to run independent. She would not win that way but neither would he. I feel this way because I think the party HEADS have done Hillary wrong , they have covered and softened Obamas baggage.

Too bad, Edwards didn't listen to his smarter half. You're welcome, John McCain.

It's kinda funny Hillary has the second biggest win of her campaign and will finish the week with a big net loss in delegates.John Edwards really rained on her parade.She might win Kentucky big tuesday but his big win in Oregon will cancel that out also.Big win for her Peurto Rico,South Dakota rules it out.Then no matter who wins Montana ,He is the winner!!! Any Hillary supporter that insists on voting for McCain keep in touch with the Red Cross so you can send cards to famalies of soldiers killed after you vote.

Thank You.

Obama 2008 and 2012

Raz

Marilana!

What a poor judgement!!!!

everyone has one vote thank you for this endorsemtn i wish that it was over we have somuch mending to do in our own party there are some who would and will not vote for senator obama if we want to contimue the way we are going as a country then you can hold your vote the replublicans have already started the guns, gays and religion not because of v

It is time for a change. Elect a woman if you want something done and done right.
Go HILLARY! She is getting thrown under the carpet by the men in the suits. Give her 8 years to straighten the mess out then let the kid come in.

I don't understand why some Clinton supporters say that they'd rather vote for McCain than Obama. Does that mean that their support for Clinton has nothing to do with her policies? Logically, it must mean that, which I find irrational.

If you dont vote now (Obama) Don't complain later !

Hillary supporters why are you commenting on an Endorsement for Obama if you don't Like him get off this thread! And to all you Hillary Supporters that won't back Barack WE DON"T CARE Hillary is a Liar an Oviously You Like to Be Lied to so Stay Home or Vote for Mcsame it will not make me Cry we will win in November With Or Without you.

Dream Ticket: Democrat, Barack Obama and Republican, Chuck Hagel

let's go. ready for a joint ticket. /Obama-Clinton or Obama -Edwards 2008

This has not been a fair competition so I will either stay home or will write Hillary on the ballot if Obama is the norminee.

Well.
I am not young - 55.
But still inspired.
It is hard to inspire me, Mom, who lost her son, who was just 25.
I am still inspired.
I am inspired for the future Young Boys, who would not die in Iraq soon, very soon.
I am inspired, that there ARE ways the country will improve.
I am inspired, that Great Country would get Great President, whos major word is not I, but WE.
I want to beincluded to this we.
I want to do my best for better future, I do believe.

And very simple: every time he got victory - it is so exciting, I am coming to my jobexcited and want and do all my best to perform it the best way possible.

I am telling myself "Yes we Can" and I can do the hardest job around my backyard. Cause - Yes, we can - this is so Human,so natural.
Very down to the Earth - Yes we can in all senses possible.
Great Nation , Yes it can to do the best one for generations to come.
Just do Your best - yes, we can !

With Obama and his record setting tax plan, My family and I will vote republican. Democrats take you check and take a 1/3 out of it. Thats what your income will be if Obama is elected. I have been a democrat but will cast my vote for McCain.

stark - what a stupid thing to say. IMAGINATION? who needs THAT. we need REALTY. and the reality is that this KID CAN NOT BEAT MCCAIN. get real, moron.

and, by the way, YOUR STATE WENT TO CLINTON. so obama's argument on the SD's following the 'will of the people' is BOGUS… just like him. empty suit.

It's a done deal, and Hillary is not going to be the VP either, We're moving into a new and younger era. The old farts have missed this country up,let's give the younger folk a chance,after they are the one risking their lives to fight the war..

For all of you that say you will not vote, or that you will vote for McCain because your candidate did not win are only hurting yourself in the long run. To take such a stand is a cop out. Positions like that is exactly why this country is so divided. Have any of you in this group of people ever heard of a pen and paper, or word processing soft ware?
Sit down, write a letter, make you position known, outline your issues, provide background and possible solutions (its called problem solving). I have on several occasions done just that, not everything was solved to my satisfaction although some were. It is a process you have to take, its called becoming involved and active. Write your congressperson or senator or state legislature. If you do nothing then you have no ground to stand on while crying or fussing about what ever it is that bothers you. Think about it.

Why do everyone who want Hillary to win will not vote for Obama. If you can see or hear how this country is headed now, you would think twice. We may be in war before the Presidential Election. No matter who wins we as Democrats should unite together if not then roll on over to the Republican side and see what you will end up with.

Idiot endorsing Idiot. The end of our Country 1/20/09.

Big Deal.

Thanks to John Edwards who says his announcement for Obama wasn't done to upset Hillary's win. Baloney - he knew exactly what he was doing and why. I use to have a lot of respect for him, but he's not fooling anyone - he knew exactly what he was doing, or he would have waited a few days to make hsi announcement. He's just another flip/flopper who's looking out for his future position in the Obama camp, should that happen.

If for nothing else, Hillary should get the nomination for her true grit, dedication and perseverence. But, she deserves it even more because she's the one who can do it best. A big grin is good for cartoons, but wears very thin after overexposure.

I would hope that if Hillary gets the nomination - she would get rid of the whole lot of those who jumped ship. They are such hypocrits/

Yes he certainly has, and it fact I would say the last time was 1972…how did that work out

Because of obama, the democratic party will loose. go MCcain!!! YOU HAVE MY VOTE, Regardless of what hillary say's i will never vote for someone so hypicritical and racist like obama.

Too bad, Edwards didn't listen to his smarter half. Americans are gluttons for punishment. Enjoy another 4 years of Bush III.

Why does Obummer get all the credit for bringing out "new voters"?

Hillary Clinton brough out and inspired millions of new voters too!

Vince is right - "Obama is as fake as the hair on Starks head. "

CLINTON OR NO VOTE!

Hey HILLARY supporters…
Pleeeease do understand OBAMA and Clinton share same values mostly and they are democrats and no bush-fans..
So if you want to see a better tommorow,support A DEMOCRAT..and Obama is not as bad as MCSame!!
Please UNITE !!

No Uniting for Obama!!

Down with Obama..get out now!!

MILLIONS OF HILLARY SUPPORTERS WILL NOT VOTE FOR OBAMA!!

Say goodbye to Obama!!

Yes!, another great endorsement from another great American. Sir, I thank you and the American public thanks you! Sir, you are truly a great American! Come on SuperDs lets wrap this up, lets put Hillary out her misery.
Congratulation Obama, we are almost home!

Our President Obama 08’ & 12’

GO OBAMA !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

All of you Baby Boomer ("me me me me generation") women who would vote for MacCain just out of the sore loser mentality go ahead - help elect McCain and then you will have been personally responsible for trashing the very womens rights YOU so valiantly fought for during YOUR prime. Your mentality is truly pathetic.

mt and bho… may God help you both.

Obama / Hagel in 2008 Change we can believe in!!!

Taxes…

Whether Democrat or a Republican you will find these
statistics enlightening and amazing.

http://www.taxfoundation.org/publications/show/151.html

…………………Taxes under……Taxes under
…………………Clinton 1999…..Bush 2008

Single making 30K - tax $8,400 tax $4,500
Single making 50K - tax $14,000 tax $12,500
Single making 75K - tax $23,250 tax $18,750
Married making 60K - tax $16,800 tax $9,000
Married making 75K - tax $21,000 tax $18,750
Married making 125K - tax $38,750 tax $31,250

Both democratic candidates will return to the higher tax rates.

It is amazing how many people that fall into the categories above
think Bush is screwing them and Bill Clinton was the greatest
President ever.

If Obama or Hillary are elected, they both say they will repeal the Bush tax cuts and a good portion of the people that fall into the categories above can't wait for it to happen.

This is like the movie The Sting with Paul Newman; you scam somebody out of some money and they don't even know what happened.

CAN'T YOU PEOPLE SEE THAT IT IS THE DNC PUSHING OBAMA…AND CNN IS PLAYING THEIR GAME!!

DOWN WITH HOWARD DEAN AND DOWN WITH OBAMA!!

I am extremly dissapointed in CNN's biased role in democratic primarries. Seems like Wolf blitzer and John King are acting like Obama's running mate. Most of the CNN team are ignoring the integrity of pure journalism. What a shame !

HILLARY , GO AWAY and NEVER come back…OBAMA 08 and 12

It is sooooo good to see the Clintons knocked down from their elitest perch

People keep endorsing Obama so that the Republicans can take the white house once again. WAKE UP!

Who cares!

I endorse Ralph Nader!

35 years and never heard of him on the National Scene.

Obama has inspired me to become a McCain Democrat!

McCain 08

Dems unite,
racists flight.
Courage & commitment of the inclusive majority rules !!
Obama 08′. !!!!
Edwards Atty. Gen.,supported by americans commited to creating the best USA fo posterity .!!

Thank you Mr. Stark and welcome to the "O" Team!

Go Obama! We are on our way to 1600 Penn Ave!

Now we're waiting for Tony Stark of Iron Man fame to endorse Obama too!

It is a calculative MISTAKE of all of these people who come out so open and endorse Obama. Think rationally. Clinton has the most of the democrats in her base. Obama has less (20% or more than Clinton) in his bag of the democrats. Obama has independents who make up this difference, and more. These independents make the apparent increase of Obama's current popularity and gain. Now if these very independents go away in the General Election (due to McCain's overcoming of them or due to other attractions such as Liberatian parties, etc.) Obama can/will be defeated. McCain does appeal to independents more than he appeals to the general Republicans. All he is got to to do is to talk like a Democrat. A likely independent (who really favored Obama against the negatives of Clinton) is not likely to vote for Obama knowing his inexeperience against veteral Senator and old timer McCain, and knowing less about the character of Obama or knowing more about his character in terms of Rezko, Ayers, and terrorist (whose send off he went to), and finally the Reveren Wright as well as his once liking to live in America first time proud wife. Believe me all those Superdelegates, Obama is lose-bound in General Election, no matter what. It is the independents swing states this time…..Watch It…you obama lovers..I know u are cramming the iNternets and cyberspace…

He doesn't inspire at all. How can someone that neglects Florida and Michigan be taken seriously. If Hillary isn't the nominee I'm voting Mccain. Democrats are losers for picking Obama

This whole Obama thing is make believe. The superdelegates see people praising the emperor's new clothes and join in. They're willing to wear them too for political gain. If we all band together we don't need platforms or plans, we can run on hope! We might view the founding fathers as inspriational now but you can be sure most were hard at work, not just smiling, waving, and implying that their election will bring racial harmony!

To Democrats Unite: It's about the Nation, not to a Party. Deal with it. People will vote against a candidate of the same party or vote third party or not at all.

It's about The Democratic Republic of the United States of America.

to FedUpDem - I am not moderator, but sure - You sound like an I-diot.

WEhy don;t You bother Yourself to think - it does not hurt

Great! America need people to be united and Obama will do it!
GO OBAMA!

mt, that's because you're a WV redneck. Go back to your trailer park.

Eli, how have they done wrong? Because of Michigan and Florida? They broke the rules and they were punished according to the rules.

The only reason you claim they broke the rules for Obama is because POOOOOOOOOOOOR HILLARY lost.

I'm not buying it. Obama is the nominee and that's it. And I feel like he should put her on the ticket so all of you knuckleheads will vote for her again instead of being like babies about it

To the virulent, angry Clinton supporters:

I understand that you're angry that Clinton has lost the race. I also understand that many of you think the media has been piling on her unfairly. I also get how you'd be angry with the supposed Obama supporters who, in their comments here, have been less-than-gracious in victory, to put it mildly (though I suspect a number of them are trolls).

What I don't understand is how any of you would actually vote for McCain in November, given his policies and politics, which seem diametrically opposed to Clinton's (and Obama's).

Can someone please give me a reasoned account of what it is about Obama and his policies that's so deeply offensive to you that you'd consider voting for someone whose policies are just like Bush's? All I'm hearing is "I won't vote for Obama — I'll vote for McCain!" (with a pout and a stamping foot), but no real reason WHY you'd do something so apparently counter your own politics and convictions.

Please enlighten me.

I don't call taking down a dictactor that was killing and torturing his own peeople (Hussein) and taking out the Taliban in Afghanistan so that WOMEN could be educated and their female children attend school a failure in foreign policy.

McCain is not Bush, Many of us wish he were. He will win however, because he is not a Conservative Republican like Bush and only cares for the welfare of his country. He is a true Patriot. That I cannot say for Obama. Who knows where his loyalties lie and I will not take that chance.

Welcome sir, this is the way. There is hope, America is about to rise again. Obama 08

This is great to have another superdelegate endorse Barack Obama! It's bringing us closer to having a nominee. I only hope we can reunite the democratic party once we have a nominee.

I believe that Barack Obama is using his own unique form of politics and is the most in-touch with the american people. Hillary Clinton has been using traditional politics throughout her campaign. It's time for a change. John McCain will not bring any change at all. Hillary Clinton will bring some change. Barack Obama will bring the most change!

my inspiratation is to register independent for the way the dnc treated hillary throughout the primaries. they have shoved obama down our throats. UNITE AND WRITE hillary's name on the ballot if it isn't on there. the crooked dnc and pundits will not make hillary's loyalist back obama.

We are all Americans who should be inspired not only by the candidate but the urgency of what is happening to us. The high cost of gas, food, travel, etc. What more inspiration do you require???

Americans are gluttons for punishment. Enjoy another 4 years of Bush-McCain! Dec 2012 will come not a minute sooner.

any hillary supporter that votes for mccain deserves for their right to vote to be stripped. you are showing you care more about your ill feelings than the issues….how can speak so highly of hillary and what she represents when her policies are on another plane than mccain. how can you vote mccain when hillary disagrees with every single issue/policy mccain has….how can you be against the war, poverty, the poor healthcare system, poor education system, bad economy and vote mccain…..THAT'S JUST DUMB!

It's sad that democrats who support Clinton will not vote Obama but McCain in the general election. That mistake will take four long years to go away. Tha's a really long time to wait for the skies to clear. America needs someone who is going to clean up it's image abroad. It used to be really cool being American anywhere in the world a few years ago, not anymore. Now entire nations look at Americans as being big bullies that will stop at nothing for oil. It's almost impossible to see it unless you have lived outside the US.

Nice move Rep stark,,,,You ve thought of generation now and yet to come,,good initiative from you,,,and For FREDwho wouldnt vote for Obama,, the best thing you should do if Obama makes it to the white house is,,, commit suicide by hanging yourself,, im sure you would be one of those awkward minded hateful Rednecks or whatever it is called,,,, and for those not willing to vote for macCain,,, let nobody plead with you,,you have all been through hard times so it isnt new anymore,, you would survive the next 4 or 8 years of the hard headed aggresive old man,,, perhaps you might not,, if so you will not be wellcome to mexico for Refuge by the time macCain is through with you all,,,,, concerned white european,,,,cologne

I truly laugh at all the Democrats ( but don't be fooled, they're probably Republicans in sheeps clothing)….anyone that says they would vote for John McSame in spite of their Democatic nominee, think on this…then you are not a true Democrat….you would actually want the war to continue, have another 4000 killed,…pay $9 a gallon for gas, then you deserve everything that's coming to you. Don't be crying "I told you so" just look in the mirror every morning and say " I screwed up"

"If not Hillary….then McCain."
RACISTS '08!

mt, Sorry you feel that way, but I was not happy when George Bush won the presidency either, but here I am 8 years later. It is not the end of the world when your candidate doesn't win. You are still an American (I hope). Do what Americans do, get over it and move on.

Welcome aboard a winning campaign!

Clinton Supporters, a.k.a Clintonites, Join us.

YES WE CAN

Well, if Tony Stark supports Obama, he definitely has my vote.
Oh wait… never mind.

It is time to unite and formally set out a program for a Democratic government led by Senator Obama.

Senator Clinton should become the next Senate Majority Leader. If there is any hope for a Democratic program it must be acted upon in the Senate. That is where Senator Clinton would be most effective by seeing that Senator McConnell's obstructionism is negated.

Congresswoman Pelosi is a total failure and should be replaced. She has not used the 'power of the purse' to any good effect; cheerleading is insufficient action. Just as in the Senate, the House needs a courageous leader if anything is to be accomplished.

I've also been inspired to vote … but not for a presidential candidate. I'll just vote for whatever other issues or candidates are running (keep the Dems in Congress in the majority) and leave the Presidential choice blank (since I can't vote "none of the above").

When Bush spoke to the Isreali's and badmouthed the Democratics I had to remember how the exact same behavior on a much smaller scale and a much smaller message was exploded by the Republicans into a feeding frenzy against the Dixie Chicks. Remember? How dare they go to a foreign country to show displeasure with an American politician. Some gall huh?

TO FRED FELL FREE TO FOLLOW THE LEADER PRESIDENT BARACK STOP YOUR STUPID DIVIDE.

Those of you who do not want to vote for Senator Obama that is fine, but remember, when you get another four to eight of the current mess, do not say one word, especially if you do not have a job now or have one and before you know it, you are out of one.

It's always the people that complain about the problem of this country, but because of ignorance, stupidity or prejudice - take your pick think they are going to get better if its someone they like, always ends up with something worst.

Think about how many of you put Bush into office thinking you were going to get better, and guess what? YOU AS WELL AS MYSELF AND OTHERS - GOT WORST!!!!!!

SHUT UP!!! if you don't want to vote for Senator Obama, then DON'T!!!!!

I think CNN is a strong supporter of the Republican party. They did the same thing in 2004.. Made sure John Kerry wins the nomination and got Bush elected.
You want Obama to be the democratic nominee and loose with the old fart McCain.. but your estimations are wrong. Obama will win this election in November in a Landslide majority.
I know you will scrutinize these comments CNN, but no matter what you do… Barack Obama will be the 2008 - 16 President of United States of America and he will be remembered througout the world as one of the Best US Presidents. Our Country will flourish and regain it's old charm that we had during the Clinton era.
God bless United States of America and the Entire World.

Hillary supporters:

Still waiting to hear 'bout all that experience … qualifications … Funny thing … that … silence … there these days …

I guess that empty (pant suit) argument wasn't working either so now she's trying nice … again … Oh, that mask?! … We've not seen that one since her last medication refill …

my my my… there are truly some small-minded and petty Hillary supporters left. These "if not HIllary, then McCain" and "he'll never win in November" are really lame statements, especially coming from people who consider themselves "Democrats."

Bottom line is this: If you cast a vote for John McCain or do not see the ramifications in doing so, then you are a disgrace to the Democratic Party.

Get over your hurt pride and do what's right for the country.

Stark is another nail in Rush Limbaughs coffin.

this country will never be ready for a black man to become president.

Obama has more electoral votes because he won the majority of the caucas states, not states with elections. If ;the caucases were like Texas, choas existed and possibly should be thrown out as it did not reflect the will of the people who voted for their selected candidate. It was a sad and pathetic caucas the night of the election.

Grandma at 45,,,, and who are you betraying by voting for Obama,,, i hope you have made enough provision for your children and grandson for 8 years,,,of macCain,,, perhaps i can speak with MacCain to deploy one of them to Iraq,,and know what it feels like,,Grandma indeed,,,sounding so cruel,,,Good granny???

Mr Stark welcome aboard. I agree it is time to unify to party and begin defeating John Mccain/George Bush policies.

Thank you, thank you Mr. Stark!!

If California could do a re-vote, Hillary would not win!

Obama 08

CA was won by Clinton. I thought Obama and supporters thought the supers should vote the will of their state. Oh, that's right this statement does not apply if they back Obama. Change, NOT!!!
There may be a whole new crowd after this is brokered. Their name will be "Clinton backers for McCain". I can already see the posters. McCain needs to thank each and everyone of you Obama supporters for the hatred you spew.

REading the blog and all the hatred for eithe canidate is crazy.Our main object should be to get Bush out and keep McCain out.People like Fred shows their true colors.Dont judge aperson by the color of thier skin.We need change in this country and it dont matter what race you are ,lets pull together to bring about that change.Unless you are rich and famous you suffer witheveryone else with this bushanomics.

LETS VOTE DEMOCRATIC IN THE FALL!!!!!!

Go Obama; He will defeat McCain/Bush this fall and become the President.

fine MT dont vote stay home and cry like the clintons will, BUT DONT SAY A WORD NEVER COMPLAIN ABOUT ANY THING IN THE NEXT 4 YEARS IF YOU DONT VOTE THEN JUST SHUT UP AND YOU COULD AND SHOULD EEVEN MOVE OUT OF THE US, SINCE YOU DONT VOTE BECAUSE YOU ARE NOT GETTING YOUR WAY THEN YOU SHOULD LEAVE

mt May 16th, 2008 12:15 pm ET

my inspiration is to not to vote for very first time. Obama did not inspire me to anything. Sorry. And I am not alone.

Then go and live in Iraq…

Obama 08!!!

the person on here thats saying he is a obama supporter is a lie he uses different names on here saying he hates america and hillery he is just on here trying to stir the pot a coward one might say

Finally, the Iron Man endorsment…

So, yet another Superdelegate ignores the will of the voters of his state and cast's his vote for Obama. Wasn't it the Obama camp who said they should vote with the people?

If I were Hillary Clinton, I would leave the Democratic party and run as an Independant. Seeing as the Dems have basically thrown her and her 17 million supporters under the bus in favor of their own agenda.

This life-long Dem will be staying home in November.

Good Job Pete…. This is why I will continue voting for you…

Well done Stark, and welcome.
Let's move forward to the White House.

Reading some of the comments makes me wonder whether people know we're talking about electing (ostensibly) the leader of the free world and not cheering for our favorite team in college football.

No matter who's nominated and who's elected, let's at least agree to have someone who can try to unite the country and salvage our global image from the last eight years of unilateral action and saber-rattling.

Hey Stay The Course - you are exactly the problem with Obama supporters. You actually believe that he is different. That he doesn't know how to play politics. You are in a dream world. First of all, he hired many operatives from Bill Clintons first run. Does that sound like change to you? LMAO at all of you that have been played like a fiddle.

It must be painful for Senator Clinton to endure the daily endorsements of super delgates declaring for Obama. But that is the process.

All you who say you will vote for McCain if Hillary does not get the nod. Wake up! You would be voting against your own personal interests!!

Don't know where this inspiration is with Obama? And is't this about solving our problems in the whitehouse not inspiring people? Obama is not qualified for this job.
