What many Clinton voters (not all) seem to forget is that Clinton and Obama have VERY similar policies. If it's not the policies you're voting against Obama on, then what is it? This is why many (not all) of her supporters are seen as racist. They would rather vote for a total opposite with acceptable skin tone than vote for a man who has closer policy agreements with their candidate of choice.

I'm not hating on Clinton.

My choice is just different than yours. I voted for Obama. But in the end, I ALWAYS vote Democrat because my views are closer to theirs.

EXAMINE YOURSELF, folks.

Kentucky goes for the good guys….At least some of us still have some common sense left.

Kentucky voters have minds? Then how in the world can Hillary be in the lead to win?

Great!!!

Clinton - 08 It's time for a woman President!!!

Go Girl…..

Well, they had plenty of time. The election season is almost over. They have access to the same news there the rest of us do. South Carolina made up their minds long ago, too.

Can we just take the East Coast and West Coast states and form a new country and be done with the middle?

We can thank them for GWB as well.

They made the wrong choice, but at least they didn't waste time coming to the conclusions that they did.

It still amazes me that after 12-15 months of primary campaigning that some people still have the nerve to say they're "undecided." What more do you people want to make a decision?

Please, let's not even talk nonsense here…..they talk about a big win and it's not looking quite that way. Humm, go figure.

Barry has a lot of work to do.

Hillary 08 or McCain 08

All week long, the television media was spouting that Hillary would win Kentucky 80-20 or possibly as large as 90-10!

So, she actually lost quite a bit of ground. With 17% in, she only leads by 8 percent !

Super delegates take notice! She is not pulling what she keeps claiming ! She even has Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly, and KARL ROVE, supporting her. WOW, are you all so stupid as to let your Party collapse with the added Republican pundit support?

Hillary in 08-President in 09! As my second grade taught us word for word, one of the Great writings of Patriot Thomas Paine titled "The Crisis" December 1776, it does state: These are the times that try mens souls: The Summer Soldier and sunshine patriot will, in this crisis, will shrink from the service of his country, but he that stands in Now, deserves the love and thanks of man and woman. Tyranny, like hell, is not conquered easily; yet we have this consolation with us, that the harder the conflict the more glorious the triumph-Thomas Paine December 1776. Our country is in a crisis today, and all we have as a free people, hangs in the balance. It is our hope that these old but inspiring words will harden Hillary Clinton, as in a way, the battles of Trenton & Princeton lay before her. Hillary is no quitter and we stand with her through thick and thin or third party which respects the Rights of Women, as this is a gender war, not a political contest.

KY, WV, IN, PA, OH, - Obama can't win in the general. He is definitely going to loose MI and FL.

Wake up people!

I really like Obama and feel he can trun America around with his vision. Not just his vision for us here at home but also abroad. However based on this result and the exit polls, I now believe that Hillary Clinton will be the Nominee. I think that for many they just cannot vote for Obama even though he and Clinton are virtually identical when he comes to the issues and solving them, a majority have even said they will vote for McCain yes McCain, who is night and day from Clinton, I just do not understand that. It is sad but that is our reality. Sigh. Well, it is what it is. To my fellow Obama supporters you know, its not what we hoped for but we should still keep working for a better America, for us and for our kids.

Isnt it wonderful.Between polling and voting the government now knows every little thing that you do.I cant wait till they poll my dreams.

I'm actually following these numbers and all I gotta say if the Reps have more uncommitted voters than the Dems when all this is set and done, I wonder who literally has problems. Is not supposed to be like that…

Are we there yet? Are we there yet??

Meanwhile Obama is trying to suck up to FL. after all the bad mouthing.
He will do any thing for political gain

Wow, Karl Rove math, straight from the GOP "Architect". They know McCain can whip her butt.

Spot on O'Reilly, with no attack.

Rush Limbaugh, GOP mouth, support…operation chaos.

What will it take for the uncommitted super delegates to see the light?
She is a Republican at heart.

Is anyone surprised by this? - Kentucky is just a larger version of West Virginia.

I believe in the fall John King will have plenty of fun changing the colors on his map! Get ready to watch lots of red turn blue no matter who wins the nomination.

Kentucky voters made up their minds in the 1800's. I'm from Mississippi…I know how it works.

What does that say about Sen. Obama?

I think he's got serious problems w/ a large segment of voters

OBAMA ! He is the Real change maker. Look at all the enthusiasm, and new democrats he has brought in.

If this election is stolen from him, the Chicago Democratic National Convention will look tame, compared to what will occur in Denver.

The youth, and non-white vote will be lost. There will be a revolution.

He is already winning. Hillary just needs her money back!!

Yeah for Kentucky, they are wise people who know what they want. Go Hillary. Run on the general election regardless who the democratic party votes for in the end. They ignored Florida and Michigan so ignore them and get on the ticket as an Independent.

Hillary, find some good deals back to NY on Priceline.
Obama / Al Gore 2008

They made up their minds a long time ago. That means that the Rev Wright controversy didn't matter. They weren't going to vote for Obama anyway - ever.

IF YOU GUYS THINK A DEM IS GONNA WIN KENTUCKY OR WEST VIRGINIA… you been sippin too much of Granny's rheumatism medicine…. (moonshine)…

Obama shouldn't have even wasted the feul flying OVER those states.

As expected. Kentucky made up its mind in 1950. lol.

Wow, Karl Rove math, straight from the GOP "Architect". They know McCain can whip her butt.

Spot on O'Reilly, with no attack.

Rush Limbaugh, GOP mouth, support…operation chaos.

What will it take for the uncommitted super delegates to see the light?
She is a Republican at heart.

Her percentage in KY is way down from where the Clinton supporters said it would be.

Why is no one talking about Clinton disenfranchising voters with her "I'm ahead in the popular vote" arguement? She is discounting caucus states and all of those voters!!!! I'm glad to count Florida and Michigan, but this argument of hers is hypocritical!

im a republican but i will vote for hilary is if she win the democratic nomination. between mccain and obama. i rather vote mccain.

So Kentucky made up their mind a long time ago? Hmmmm… I wonder why.

If Obama can't beat a Republican like McCain in a general elecetion with the 8 year record they currently hold for giving tax breaks to the rich, a war that has cost over 4 thousand lives over 10 thousand wounded and made Haliburton and other War Profiters rich, and gas prices that two Texas oilmen in the White House could care less about, will only prove what the whole world already knows that America is a racist country. Even South Africa had a black President.

I will just say that I feel sorry for the people of WV and KY… willing to vote for McCain is totally voting against their own interests. I am an Obama supporter. I make very good money, and yet, I don't mind the idea of paying higher taxes to give others a shot at a better life. I had to work hard to earn everything that I have, and I know that without a level playing field, it's going to be hard to get ahead.

Beware… McCain is not about leveling the playing field… he once said that promising to provide soldiers with a free college education after returning from Iraq was "too generous". COME ON!!!! These soldiers are putting their lives on the line every day for our freedom–the least we can do is help them get their lives on track if they're blessed to make it home. That's the sad reality of this situation.

So Clinton supporters, go ahead and vote for McCain… don't complain when gas prices continue to climb (and they will) and don't complain when you're reproductive rights are stripped and don't complain when you don't have enough money to make your ends meet. Obama is more than willing to help us all get to where we want and need to be.

That's a statistic that rural voters in Kentucky can stick their tooth into.

THANK YOU KENTUCKY!!!!!!!

Hillary had them at hello.

How romantic.

OH NO How could this be.

Obama does do well in redneck hillbilly states?

BARACK OBAMA ! He is the Real change maker. Look at all the enthusiasm, and new democrats he has brought in.

If this election is stolen from him, the Chicago Democratic National Convention will look tame, compared to what will occur in Denver.

The youth, and non-white vote will be lost. There will be a revolution

What nobody seems to be aware of is that all three candidates still in the race will probably have a lackluster administration at best. One candidate will say anything to get herself elected, one won't say anything for what he stands for, and the other doesn't really have an upside. It's going to be a long time until 2012 comes along…

Again, is this really surprising?

And this is why Obama didn't campaign extensively in Kentucky the way Hillary did. Their minds were already closed. I mean "made up."

Obama is losing alot of electoral states that isn't good for the Dems. in Nov. I hear Flordia isn't to keen on him either.

A presidential candidate who needs the likes of Limbaugh, O'Reilly, Hannity & Rove is not in the best interests of this country!

OMG - What is wrong with HC people - FL & MI - broke rules and they knew what they were doing. HC went along with it until she needed their votes - bit of a flipflop there!!!
Why are HC supports still whining about that issue.
It's unbelieveable - and don't you think that more voters would have come out for Obama has they believe their votes would count!?
Get over yourselves!

Obama 08 or Mc Cain 08. No thank you Clinton.

poor judgement, like Hilary……..

good luck , she can fight until january, 2009

Hmm..

I guess all these 85% were Clinton supporters, or Edwards supporters whom Edwards influence

It ain't over until the "fat lady sings"…..and that will be after Oregon has reported….poor Hillary, she is looking really tired, stressed and over whelmed….just like she would be if she were elected President….she does not have the brains nor the stamina for the job….bow out now Hill, and give us all a breaK!

I made up my mind who I was supporting when my Candidate Sen Edwards dropped out of the race.. OBAMA 08.. Come NOV..Vote Democrat. Democrats support the troops..Call Sen McCain's office and ask him to support Senator Webb's GI BILL.. It's a replica of the GI bill our grandfathers were able to get when they got back from WW2… McCain says it's too expensive and the Pres has already said he will veto it without even reading it.

To the commenter who questions whether or not persons residing in Kentucky have minds, You have a lot of nerve lady! I have lived north and south of the Mason-Dixon line and there are plenty of intelligent people on both sides. God forbid that the whole country get to cast there vote for a candidate. How many times I have heard "I will vote when they give me a candidate worth voting for." Apparently a lot of people think she is worth voting for. I am so grateful to see a candidate who is willing to stick it out to the end. I respect the woman. She has made mistakes, I will admit, but as anyone awake for the last 8 yrs can see, making a mistake doesn't mean you can't be president. I think Obama is a respectable man, but he has yet to tell us how he plans to pull off his great reformation. This makes me very leery. And everyone (candidates and voters) really need to knock off all the mud slinging. This isn't American Idol people, it is the future of our country! A country which I have bled for. We need to grow up and live up to the promises of our founding fathers.

Big deal ! Obamba is still going to beat her. She is just waisting her time and money!!

Here we go again; a small state, a big victory; who cares? The race has been over for some time; we all knew that she was going to do well there. Oregon (another "white" state) will go heavily for our next President.

Obama 08′

Come on now be for real. The 65% who voted for clinton in KY made up it's mind the day Obama decided to run, that they would never vote for him. This is no surprise, the only ones making an issue of these votes are the media. becuase this circus has been making rating history for them. so it really means nothing clinton won't win PERIOD.
But now the key vote is in the genaral either to vote for CHANGE, or vote for the SAME. it's your choice make the right call. remember how that bush vote went, for everyone mccain is the same as bush!!!!!!

BARACK THE VOTE!!!!!!!!

Kentucky see whats at our door. Compare our Country to a Natural disaster and then choose which one would be better.
#1.we have Bush who is like a natural disaster that made landfall.
#2.we have Mccain who wants to continue destruction.
#3.we have Obama claiming change,who wants to rebuild ontop of unstable foundations.
#4.Clinton who wants to clean house and rebuild a stronger foundation.
I dont know about you but I would rather go with #4.
But if I had to choose between Obama and Clinton I would choose Clinton.
As for Obama ,it would be like putting him in the middle of a mess that a storm has left behind and him rebuilding on top of it. Do you honestly think we would be better off.

This is what we call close minded … no?

Why do these polls always ask the wrong questions? Give us some useful information:
1) Ask Obama supporters if they will refuse to vote for Obama in the presidential campaign if Hillary is VP.

2) Ask Hillary supporters who refuse to vote for Obama in the presidential campaign if they will change their mind if Hillary is VP.

3) Ask independents and Republicans if they are more likely or less likely to vote for Obama if Hillary is VP.

Then the information means something.

As long as we're on the issue of the wrong questions, how come no one is asking about the federal debt, which is now $30,000 per American man woman and child? How come no one is outraged that every American man woman and child pays about $100 per month on the interest on the debt? Doesn't that make your $200 "economic stimulus" check (paid for by more debt) seem careless and irresponsible? What's going to happen to the nearly bankrupted social security system when the number of retirees collecting social security doubles in the next 8 years or so? How come none of the candidates have a concrete plan for fixing these problems?

This is called reality, close minded people is someone who cant deal with reality. It has nothing to do with race or gender.

Why is there no headline that says: Clinton shames obama - picks up 20,000-250,000 votes?????????????????

This is ridiculous. Clinton hands the second major wooping to obama and the spin is that he is going to win the majority of the delegates? based on caucuses and all these complex democratic rules that don't make any sense. We are going to lose this election to the GOP based on these idiotic rules. The person that should be the democratic nominee should be the one that has the best chance of getting 270 in the general. In the general, it's not proportional and caucuses voting. It's winner takes all.

Forget about Clinton's argument that she would be the nominee if we were going by the GOP process. Let's take the states she won and the map into the general election. In that scenario, which should be the only thing that matters because 2 years of this race would be for nothing if we lose the general, It is obvious that she is the best candidate against Mccain. Clinton is likely to get 300 v. Obama 217. The best thing to do is to nominate clinton and STEW obama in the VP role and have him run in 8 years. I don't want a 'change' to RAW meat.

You wouldn't want an intern to operate on you over an experienced surgeon. Why would we want an intern as a president?

We are the people and all votes should count equally.

I think Obama would make a great VP but needs more learning before being President.

Wow thats pretty deep…Minds made up a long time ago.

It's like the guy said in another post. If you are running in a 1500 meter race and you are making this really great spurt at the end, but you are still looking at someone's butt in front of you, then you lose.

Obama has great visions that is not a reality at this point and time.

the head lines says it all

Reality chek, popular vote only should count regardless if MI & FL held their's early it should count,no sup. del. and so on. Let all speak .This is the way it should be.

Obama cannot win without Hillary. On a ticket together, they could win all the swing states, the blue states and a good number of the red states, including West Virginia and surrounding states.

Obama/Clinton '08

people in Kentucy know a throughbred when they see one and that's Clinton.

Clinton is a broken down nag ready for the glue factory.

CNN You did not have to post my previous comment because it clearly told the truth that CNN fails to report. You all play with the numbers and skirt around the real issues with those numbers and polls.

Hillary won Kentucky and West Virginia but
they will probably vote for McCain if the
choice is between McCain and her.

Delaware

I lived in Kentucky over 20 years. I made my mind for Hillary when she announced "I am in, I am in to win". Actually I was dreaming about Hillary for President since late 1990's. I read her books, 'Living History' several times, I believed she is our future leader. I hope DNC make wise decision at meeting in 31 May, support Hillary for Nominee. she is the only one could beat McCain. If DNC play stupid rule, they will lose the White House. Obama played race card, it is not enough to beat Republican in General Election. Obama has next chance, he needs to learn and practice for several years, so far too many mistakes, especially Michelle needs to educate herself well, wild cat couldn't handle White House, she should learn manners first if she wants to be First Lady, Michelle is nightmare.

I beleive it the min that a black candidate was in running. These people rebel against any thing different no doubt they are still living in the past

america has to move forward and just leave this mountain clans behind !!!!!!!!

After everyone has had there vote, will she really be gracious enough to support and help unite the party. I think not. She has been far more concerned with her "legacy," to even see the harm she has caused the party. For her to really save face, she needs prove herself to be extremely helpful to Obama campaign in the general.

you should ask them how they will vote after the primary. if you think voting for mccain will get you where you want to be so be it but this is no country for old presidents!
