CNN

I was one of the honest supporters of Sen. Hillary, before I witnessed her on the podium when start elusion the sniper and other stories knowingly she is lying on the face of American people on live TV more than couple times.
That’s shake me up , and remind me recent administrations lies and set up unproved evidences to us and the word to drag this country to unnecessary Iraq war causing tremendous damage to our country’s economy, and the countries prestige in foreign policies.
I am sure the Super delegate’s knowledge about her is more than what we know, and I am sure their judgment will be according to their experience not to vote to those whose illusion leads us to tremendous damage economically and morally.

Noone has taken the nomination away from Hillary. NICE TRY!! I agree totally with STEVE's comments. I would have liked to see a woman President, but NOT THIS ONE. One more thing to think about--Hillary is saying, shouting, EVERY VOTE COUNTS. Well, that includes ALL THE STATES OBAMA WON, not just the ones she wants to count. She refers to her winning the BIG IMPORTANT STATES, so you can't have it both ways, Hillary. ALL THE STATES ARE IMPORTANT, PERIOD. Michigan and Florida took themselves right out of the Primary. No, not the voters, but their leaders. So they DON'T COUNT now. It is sad for all the people of those states. I pray the people never let it happen again. But it is FINISHED THIS TIME AROUND. It is sad to see Hillary make a fool of herself when she is so intelligent. But, there were no bullets either and you can't pretend your way in life towards true health and the USA isn't healthy now and needs a big time lifestyle change. THANKS TO ALL THE VOTERS WHO HAVE VOTED FOR OBAMA TOWARDS HIS NOMINATION.

I THINK IT IS SO SAD THAT THIS DAY AND AE WE HAVE SO MANY RACIST PEOPLE STILL WALKING AROUND WITH THEIR NASTY VIEWS. AMERICA IS MORE THAN READY FOR A CHANGE AND ONLT BARACK OBAMA CAN ACHIEVE IT. YES HE MAY BE THE ONE WITH THE LEAST EXPERIENCE, BUT LOOK WHERE HAS ALLL THIS SO CALL GOTEN THE USA ABSOLUTELY NO WHERE. GIVE THIS MAN A CHANCE. IT IS SURELY BETTER THAN WHAT'S IN POWER NOW. HILARY TURNED ME OFF BECAUSE OF THE NASTY POLITICS SHE EMBARKED ON SHAME ON HER FOR THAT, EVEN HER HUSBAND PLAYED THE RACE CARD. THE BIG PROBLEM IS THAT AMERICA IS REALLY SHOCK TO SEE A MAN RAISED BY A SINGLE WHITE WOMAN ACHIEVING SO MUCH. I REALLY ADMIRED BARACK FOR THE EXECELLENT CAMPAIGN RAN THUS FAR. I WILL BE PRAYING FOR HIM TO CONTINUE AND NOT TO STOP TO ALL THE NEGATIVES THAT BEING HURLED AT HIM. THIS IS REVELATION FULFILLING ITSELF.

We just had 2 states vote. Hillary whipped Obama in Kentucky by close to 250,000 votes. She loses Oregon by about 87,000+ votes. The cold hard facts are that the Democratic voters are strongly supporting Clinton by wide margins even after superdelegates pledge their support for Obama and the media continues to declare Hillary's bid for the nomination to be irrelevant. Wake up DNC and superdelegates! She is winning the popular vote and the swing states. With Hillary as our nominee, Dems take the White House come November. Let's not shoot ourselves in the foot again as we did in 2000 and 2004.

The two democratic candidates are a great combination, but ego will not allow them work together. Although, am one of those who prefer another generation of leaders in Washington. Moreover, what did Bill Clinton forget in the White House that he wants to use Hillary to Retreave?

i think obama biggest mistakes in WV and KY were, he didn't campaign hard and letting hillary all over the place by herself. He didn't put enough effort to get those voters who haven't known him. His PRESENCE is very importance...he missed that and that was whats the big lost all about.

Com on people, I think it's realy strange that after Bush's eight long years of degrading us AMERICANS......and moping the floor with our Values,leaving our reputation a mochory at most of the worlds doorsteps, WE tend to disregard that this is the simplist year of nomination? The people have sopke and Obama fought fair so did Hilliary , but Enough get back behind our nominee in the democratic wagon and lets go to the oval office because there is no time to spare and the worlds at peril not only the enviorment.....Either way we can make history, first African American or the first Lady in the white house is an honer for all the American throughout history and a gian landmaek that in itself will unite us jut for that move.So please , stop naging either of you two supports and get behind one whoe likey to get the white house aand from where I sit it lookd pretty good for Obama,,,,,,,or let my two year old son come and you an elect him becuse he has his favourite niminee from three months ago just by looking at the news and catching few phrase

she is dillusional and has no grip on reality she thought all she had to do is turn up and get the nomination she agreed with the dnc's stance on florida &michigan but when the numbers come against her she wanted them counted. she won't leave the race until she is taken out kicking and screaming in a strait-jacket

First Hillary agrees that Michigan and Florida shouldn't count. Then as her campaign gets desperate she says they should count. The media should be all over her for being a hypocrite but generally have thrown softballs at her and her supporters on this one letting them get away with their political spin doctoring.

Now Hillary says if "we counted our primaries the way the Republicans did that I would be the nominee." The obvious response is to tell Hillary to run for the Republicans. Once she realized she had no chance of being the Democratic nominee Hillary and her cronies did her best to ensure the Republicans could win in November so she could attempt to run again in 2012.

It amazes me that people will still vote for her dispite all of her lies, mistatements, hypocrisies and questionable ethics and morals. I can't help but think that the rednecks can bring themselves to vote for a woman but never an African American. Look at the states where she has recently cleaned up. They haven't exactly been poster states for progressive thinking.

Many of you have even believed all her lies including that she is most in touch with the American worker. How many of you have lived in the White House or a Governor's mansion for a good portion of your adult life. How many of you common folk have made $110 million in the last ten years. Yup she knows what it takes to feed a family of four on $25,000 a year. Just ask her. How many of you can afford to have your daughter fly all over the country telling people how wonderful you are. (but no questions for Chelsea).

It isn't that I believe the Clinton's aren't entitled to their millions. Just please tell them to stop the crap about being ordinary people.

The DNC is ready to give Obama his unfair victory based on 48 States!

The base of the Democratic Party keeps rejecting this guy and the superdelegates don't seem to be getting the message. Are they waiting for him to lose in November if he gets the nomination to finally understand that things are not quite right and in fact are very disturbing when you look at the results of these primaries including his not winning any big key States.

Will Michelle Obama video showing her calling white people "whitey" at Rev. Wright's church come out soon and in time to make people realize that Obama will be the most handicapped nominee that the Dems have ever put forward and he would go down to a certain defeat in November against any Republican.

Hillary should go and sleep to be ready to start preparing food for Bill.Bill had been sleeping without the food of Hillary for a long time.Go back to the kitchin Hillary.

you know it's funny and almost humiliating how Hillary and her supporters will say anything that comes to their heads thinking it will win them the nomination.what electability are you talking about?people are voting for Hillary not because they really prefer her but because they want to save her from the humiliating postion she seems ready to step into.how else would you vote for a candidate and then later criticise her for her attacks on Obama.....face it people,hillary is not concerned about the electral process as she claims to justify her continuing the failed fight,she just can't accept that with all the influence at her exposure,she still lost!!
She should have atleast fought a dignified primary and not the one she and Bill put up....
Obama for America..

Texas Ranger, that was the best maths ever
"Come on guys don't be doughtful, Hillary can still win this thing. I mean if we subtract all the black votes that was initially for Hillary but switched, because switching is wrong, and add all the older white people who died over the last 2 years because those would have probably voted for her but did not have a chance to (because every vote counts) and since Hillary is married to Bill and she is entitled to half of what's his, then she should be granted half the delegates from his 1992 and 1996 campaigns. By this math we are in the door, and if this is not enough we can add Canadians becasue lots of Canadians come to New York. I think we can win this thing"

Someone need to call this game over. Its unfair to talk of breaking the rules when all agreed to keep them at the start. This will be unfair leverage no matter the justification. Imagine in athletics one of the competitor saying he/she be allowed to cut the corner to the finish line now that they are in second spot and obviously finish first or convince some match officials to allow them be declared winner due to some supposed new map calculations that was not envisaged earlier. Its truly Exciting to follow the 2008 American election primaries but what happened to your Great democratic principles that a whole lot of us admired. Whatever you do please don't get another George Bush like person to be your president. You will lose last remaining respect we had for your country.

I can't believe there are Hilary supporters who say they'd vote McCain if Hilary isn't on the ticket as VP. Ridiculous. That alone shows how much you involve yourself with the issues. Go to YouTube and watch any of their debates. The sheer number of times Hilary says "I'll have to agree with Senator Obama here" and Obama says "Senator Clinton and I are of one mind on this issue" is startling. Their platforms are very similar; so similar, in fact, that voting for Obama in the general election would serve your interests in Hilary better than a vote in the complete opposite direction (McCain).

Think, people. And for goodness sake, do some research before you make such an important decision.

you mean after 50 seperate attempts to FORCE Clinton out of the race, you now are NICE enough to let her finish the last 3 contests?

Wow. You are all heart Axelrod.

After you went to your Joseph Gobbels school of propoganda , I didnt think you had a heart.

You even got the media to SLANT all the negative attacks against Clinton.

The Democratic Party needs to make a choice soon. The choice in clear. There is not much time to wait.

Yes we can! Obama 2008!

I'm a lifelong Democrat. My support for Hillary over Obama stems from what I view to be Obama's "loose cannon" policies of meeting with terrorist state leaders, and his choice to vote "present" in his own state senate, so many times, rather than making a clear committed decision and having to live with decisions consequences. I'm not a racist. I am for Sen. Clinton because she is more conservative and calculated in her foreign policy approach. I believe that is why so many retired Generals and military leaders endorse her. Hillary makes a decision and votes her conscience, and as a leader, she lives with that decision. Obama ran a whole campaign on "he was against the war in Iraq from the start", but the facts are– the free Iraq Democracy would not be standing as it is now, if the USA had not liberated it. I'm still with Hill and I honestly believe some Republicans are too.

Hillary says she will fight to the end. The real question is: how does she define "end"?

Is it when the last primary is over on 3 June?

Is it when the DNC Rules Committee meets for the last time before the Convention in July?

Is it when the super-delegates are forced to vote finally at the Convention in August?

Is it when she loses the lawsuit in Federal Court over the civil rights violation of not seating 100% of the delegates from FL and MI in September?

Is it when she loses the appeal of the civil rights violation lawsuit at the Supreme Court in October?

Or is it only when McCain is inaugurated in January?

Good maral lesson for Hillary.

And to you Mr. Brian, the SUPER DELEGATES are seaned enough to sail abov your myopic views. The little kwon is winning. And Hillary keeps creating her own rules to win – at any cost.

SHAMEFULL!

The world awaits OBAMA.

Since cable news companies like CNN and MSNBC must fight for ratings, the real truth of the democratic primary election has been set aside a bit. The truth is: NO DEMOCRAT SINCE 1964 HAS CARRIED THE BLUE COLLAR WHITE VOTE!!! On average, democratic presidential candidates get approx. 30% of that vote. Obama has averaged a little more than Kerry did when he was running for President. Hillary is beating Obama in this core group. So what! There are no guarantees that she would carry RED REPUBLICAN STATES. This blue collar white non-sense is only being discussed to sensationalize the race divide. If Obama was white, it wouldn't come up as an issue, just like it didn't when Kerry ran and when Gore ran.

Thanks Texas Rangers! thats how Hillary's surrogates do their maths! infact you have given them another formular! just wait for few days and they will start saying "IF YOU COUNT THE WAY I COUNT ALL CANADIANS AND ILLEGALS HAVE VOTED FOR ME" No hard feelings Hillary you gave it all what you had and comparing other women at your age I salute you for your energy!.

Texas Ranger...couldn't have said it any better! You have captured the absurdity that is the Clinton campaign!

And if pigs had wings they'd be able to fly, Hillary you don't have to go home...just PLEASE go AWAY, it's OVER!

One question for Hillary supporters: How is she stronger in the general when she cant even win her primary? I have seen so many different sides of Hillary Clinton this primary season that I dont even know where she really stands on issues.

Whether we agree with it or not, the Florida and Michigan decision was made before the campaigning began. Hillary supporters need to come to grips with the fact that she cannot win and throw their support behind the man that won fair and square without any special circumstances. Thats not "sexist", its just the truth.

So does fighting for every delegate and finishing the process mean appearing in states yet to vote (more often than Senator Obama appeared in WV or KY)? Does it mean debating Senator Clinton on issues important to those states yet to vote or does it mean continuing to run scared while at the same time talking about talking to our enemies? Does fighting for delegates mean something different than fighting for voters? I thought so. Who cares about voters, anyway? Certainly the Obama campaign does not care about the voters in Michigan or Florida or West Virginia or Kentucky or [fill in the blank here].

i saw Mr King(from CNN) doing the maths on his " magic board" days ago and he showed the other way Obama could also win against Mc CAIN ...And ther's something that has to be acknowledged...The nominee should be the first in the maths obtained with rules settled by the DNC...If HRC could win she would be the first..How come she changes the calculations every time she sees the maths are "against" her...She made her case ,people choosed and that's it ...She even said under Republican rules she would be the nominee!!!! well from a democrat this is just a betrayal, nothing less...The guy is ahead everywhere and he played fairly because he respected the rules...Some people may not like that, fine...but hey guyz...this is ...democracy...respect the rules!!!

Texas Ranger, you need to grow up, think clearly–and get a dictionary.

Clinton supporters do what they do because of a little thing called "doing the right thing". She's the better candidate–by far.

Compare their views, in their own words, on their own websites.

Than come to me with your vain attempts at cleverness.

And don't attach the name of my state to your ramblings. You're giving Texans a bad name.

Obama-Webb!

It is over for all intents and purposes. It is time for the democrats to become whole again and focus on what is best for the US. I think very few real democrats would support the idea of another GOP term is the best way to go.

It is time to leave the personality issue behind and focus on the issues and policies.

Obama supporters should stop their Clintonbashing and vica versa. The contest was hard and close. Now it is time to realise that he issues for both candidates are actually extremely close in policy, and policy is in the end the thing that determines the future for the people.
Not if the president is a man or a woman, black or white.

Good job, Obama. You started this process committing to running a fair campaign and it's only fair to wait until the end of this process to announce the obvious.....that you're the democratic nominee. Keep it real!

Obama '08

He shouldn't declare a victory until all votes have been counted.
Some very good sources say he did advertise in Flori"dah", where Hillary did not and still she won 57/37.

Let's not forget He removed his name from Michi"gone" she didn't and nothing said she should have. Again she won 56/33 I believe that 33 is his.

So seat the electoral delegates and cancel the super delegates. Many of them have not shown themselves loyal to their constituents anyway ie Bill Richardson...changed his tune and went against his state and race.

Thank goodness...he's not one of my 2 choices!

It looks like the DEMS really know HOW to lose. It could be that it is the party with the most uneducated and vulnerable folks in this world.

Let the Dems give Hillary to the Republicans. Indeed, the Republicans are really eager for a "fighter" not a uniter. The Republicans will have no problem opening up their "war chest" against the Clintons. They will start where the Clintons left off– the White House items that were stolen and end up with "Bosnia fire." Yeah, let Hillary be the nominee for our women in this nation; blacks should work harder, they are not yet ready!

THERE GOES THE COUNTRY AFTER HE IS THE NOMINEE–I am a Clinton supporter who will now be a McCain supporter. No way is an ultra-liberal inexperienced, arrogant freak like Obama going to take office–he wouldn't know where to begin. OH!! GOD HELP US!!!!!!!!

This is such great sense of humor, very wise and careful decision making ability Obama has shown! I can recall a right decision maker such as Clinton had proposed Obama for VP! Probably this is what is costing the US now with Iraq war...rushed decisions! My friend has been debating whether Clinton is not a republican? Does this friend have any point?

Texas Ranger, I agree perfectly with you!! This will really excite the Republicans and this nation. Afterwards, the Republicans are eager to run against Hillary. Let the Dems give Hillary to the Republicans. The Dems really know HOW to lose!

anyone who votes for barack obama is a fool. just think about it one very important thing, he wont wear the american flag pin on his lapel. did any one ever ask why, because its against his religion and he's a muslim. i have much fear for america if barack the muslimgets nominated. i think hillary clinton would be the best choice.

It's not that simple, but since you can read the future there is a few stock I like you to tell me how they will be doing six months from now.

Obama/Web in '08

Texas Ranger, I agree perfectly with you!! This will really excite the Republicans and this nation. Afterwards, the Republicans are eager to run against Hillary. Let the Dems give Hillary to the Republicans. The Dems really know HOW to lose!

Hum, interesting point, if she can beat McSame, and Obama can beat her, that mean techniclly, mathematically or howerer you want he can as well beat Mc same

A>B and B>C implies A>C so simple

they both could beat mc cain, and the point is this was about delegates from the beginning, so don't try changing the rules at the end making people think something else, if it was about popular votes they should have stated so since the beginning. in 8 years they could have those new rules, in the mean time we are moving on.

Obama may not say he thinks it's over but he sure is acting like it. Why is he ignoring the people of WV and KY? Don't these people count? He is however finally going after the FL and MI people, he is trying to suck up to them to make them forget that he stood in the way of their votes counting when he vetoed the arrangement worked out last month. Not because he didn't get a large enough proportion of the votes but because what Clinton would have gotten would have put her in the lead since she did get more of the votes.
I sure hope the FL and MI people are too smart for him to spin his web of deceit and get their votes in November should he win the nomination.
By the way, I certainly hope you college yuppies aren't too fond of your SUV's since Obama wants to you give them up to save gas. Along with only being allowed to eat a certain amount to help with global warming. What the hell was that speech all about anyway? NO ONE is going to tell me in this FREE country what vehicle I can drive or how much food I can eat. What a scary concept! I will NEVER vote for this guy.

Is it possible that Mrs Clinton is staying in the race,so Obama cant win,with the hope that she can run again in 2012? As far as I can see, if Obama wins,her next chance would be in 2016.

No Brian. either Obama is the nominee or Clinton loses. I've had it to my eyeballs with her. At this point the only way she can win is to STEAL the elecgion with super delegates. Not going to happen, and if it does I will campaign against her so hard that all of the Midwest, (including Illinois which is always blue) and anywhere else I can get will turn red. Clinton supporters are the only ones who can refuse to support the other. Clinton has lost . Deal with it. If you have a good reason against Obama. (i.e. not his inexperience because Washington, Lincoln, et al great presidents were inexperienced; not his pastor, Ayers, etc because Clinton has had shady dealing with shady characters too, and not any garbage about flag pins. If you have a POLICY RELATED reason not to support Obama, fine do it. But if it is manufactured garbage or race you are a sad, sad person, and I do not ant to live in the same country as some one willing to be so ignorant).

Texas Ranger...

You are fired from thinking. Please refrain from doing so in the future.

Thanks.

CLINTON CORRUPTION FAMILY AND PEOPLE ARE FOR GETTING THAT BILL CLINTON IS A RAPIST AND IMPEACHED PRESIDENT???

The only thing Hillary is going to beat is the dead horse.

should either of these candidates win and become president, this changes nothing. It will be as it has always been.
Those of us voting for Obama will be disappointed.

Texas Ranger, please lay off the juice!

HEY TEXAS RANGER, your pretty funny

should either of these canidates win and become president, this changes nothing. It will be as it has always been.
Those of us voting for Obama will be disappointed.

So – according to Brian Knoxville's logic, the candidate which couldn't even win in the primaries somehow has the best chance of success in the general.

Riiiiiiiight.

If the Supers hand the nomination to Hillary in spite of the will of the voters, you can count on a lot of us new voters either voting Green or deciding to go watch a movie or something on election night. But hey – y'all have fun with Preznit McCain, eh?

We have seen in this election the emergance of what
is a three party system. The republicains, Christian Democrats(Subset of Democratic party) and Liberal Democracts(Subset of democratic party). These parties exist in europe.

Hillary is damaging the propspect of the democrats winning in the fall.
She has lost, and now she dividing the party. If she continues to draw this out because of her childish stubborness the dems will lose.

To everyone that is hurting please consider this, Do we want McCain to get into office and send more of our children to their deaths? Do we really want to see more of our jobs go over seas? Do we honestly think that appointing a man that shares the same principle as the current president? Think about that.

Why can't we as a party begin to unite and became strong? Let go of your fear of color and unite behind the man that will take us to a time of RESPECT. As a woman I know how it feels to be down and not out. But as a mother I have learned something called grace and understanding. I just hope that Sen. Hillary would show a lot more grace.

should either of these canidates win and become president, this changes nothing. It will be as it has always been.
Those of us voting for Obama will be disappointed

Well, apparently Brian is not a fan of democracy. Yeah, SDs go for Hillary...if you never want to be elected again.

I am sure he is not. He is not ready to be a nominee or a president.

Be very Afraid

Brian 2:00Am ET

Lay off that Tennessee SOUR MASH Whisky ok ?

Do you Think that John Mc Cain Cannot win any state that he lost to Huckabee or Romney?

Why would you think tha Barack Obama cannot win any state that he lost to Clinton?

Are those states sitting there waiting for her return..frozen in time?

On the Count of 3, I will snap my finger, and you will awaken...

I am proud that there are still supporters for Hillary.........
Well Hillary supporters should go to HILLARY.COM and give her $ 20 each. The Moment she gets the 11 million she has loaned to her cam-with-pain and some more to pay the bills not Bill Clinton she will be GOOOOOOOOne. Then it will be in the best interest of the party. Her Pocket and your money will make the difference and ease the pain.
GET REAL.....SEE CLEAR......LIVE IN THE REAL WORLD
SHE is not about Party, She is about HERSELF already planning to damage the Real Winner so HE can Loose and she will then TRY in 2012.
Yes Truth Herts.

Texas Ranger,

You are not making sense. Start over.

He's not ready to declare victory for the primary, but he should be ready to declare defeat for November... No He Can't!

Hillary 08!

That was very funny. LMAO

Hillary would like the rules change in her favor
1. She agreed to follow the DNC rules and cheated her running mates by contesting in FL and MI
2. She did negative campaigning against Obama in such a way, that even a Republican wouldn't do. McCain was much decent that her
3. She stated that Super Delegates are more important when she realized that she would loose the Pledged delegate count. But she looses in all math, Pledged & Super Delegates
4. Now she claims popular vote, which she clearly lost and wants to count the 2 states where Obama or none of her running mates contested and she still did not manage to win more than about 50% of the vote there.
5. Now she wants to increase the Pledged delegate target to 2210 and still she has no chance of comming close
6. Then she will go to the DNC and start begging all the Super delegates and then cursing them for not voting for her – which they wont.
7. Finally , she will start blackmailing Obama for the VP position, which she is not going to get
Hillary, you need to get a life. Go back to NY.
OBAMA / AL GORE 2008

Barack is too kind to her..

Hillary simply hasn't demonstrated she can manage a campaign budget. She keeps complaining she has been "outspent," but that also means she has been "out-fundraised." He is advertising more, yet has more money left over, by a considerable margin. Is Hillary still using street money for her campaign? Obama said he would not. Maybe she bled her funds dry that way.

It's not a matter of being outspent - if that's all it was, they would both be broke.

Good luck Brian. Your appeal is very toxic. Shine your eyes and brain pls

Not so fast Obama! Thier IS ALOT WE DON'T KNOW ABOUT YOU......YET!!!!

Come on guys don't be doughtful, Hillary can still win this thing. I mean if we subtract all the black votes that was initially for Hillary but switched, because switching is wrong, and add all the older white people who died over the last 2 years because those would have probably voted for her but did not have a chance to (because every vote counts) and since Hillary is married to Bill and she is entitled to half of what's his, then she should be granted half the delegates from his 1992 and 1996 campaigns. By this math we are in the door, and if this is not enough we can add Canadians becasue lots of Canadians come to New York. I think we can win this thing

To every super delegate of the Democratic Party,

Please think long and hard about the simple choice you now have to make:

!) Choose to endorse Hillary Clinton as the Party’s nominee and watch her become the first woman to be elected President of the United States.

or

2) Choose to endorse Barack Obama and watch the first African American nominee of the Democratic Party lose in the general election.

Hillary Clinton will win against John McCain in the states that the Democratic Party needs to win in order to reach 270 electoral votes in the general election.

Obama won’t.

It’s that simple.

Endorsing Barack Obama, a relatively unknown candidate with a thin resume who has lost by large margins nearly every large state and swing state to Hillary Clinton in the primaries, is a huge gamble at best.

Please don’t gamble with our futures.

HILLARY CLINTON ’08

It is now only a matter of time.

His time is here !.
Let Sen. Clinton continue if she really can't bring herself to admit defeat, but she will eventually have to throw in the towel. The nominee WILL BE Sen. Obama. HIS TIME IS HERE !!.

what the matter with obama the big baby . he can't have it his way all the time.he is nothing but a big baby. he needs cnn to help him.and cnn sucks

Proud of you Obama!

Can't for to see you as our next president – 2009!

Go Big Brown!

The prolonged primary is also costing us the voters money. We know we need to support our candidate with donations. Obama is limited in the amount of money he can raise towards the general campaign while this continues. Donors are contributing towards a primary that is already decided. We need Clinton supporters and Obama supporters to turn their donations towards th general election and we can not afford to lose in November. I do not understand why the CNN panelists have not brought this up. I have questions about these campaign finance limits during the primary towards the general election. Can you explain that and the advantage McCain has with respect to that now that he is the presumptive nominee?

MISSION ACCOMPLISHED????????????????

WHAT HAPPENED MR. O-BITTER ??????????

Adolf Hitl'....I mean David AxelRove....DID THE "MATH" NOT ADD UP???!!!

Here is a HINT; "It's NOT the MATH, It's the MAP!!"

CLINTON 08' or McCAIN 08'...........NOBLAHMA NEVERRRRR!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

obama has won the majority of pledge delegates. what should happen now is that the super delegates come out and suppport obama and end this now!

Obama will lose in November.

Hillary Dems are going bring him down.

Hillary or McCain...............take your pick.

The problem now is that people are not voting FOR Hillary. They are voting AGAINST Barack. They have seen her cry twice, once on your show. Can she go into heated meetings with world leaders and begin to cry? They know that she is weak because she is emotional, a normal female trait. I can say it because I am a female. I am just being truthful. Something people need to be. People are willing to allow more of our men and women to die in the senseless war in Iraq than to vote for an African-American. Even more than the economy, the gas problem or the foreclosure situation, it has become obvious by looking at West Virginia, Kentucky, and other states that human life means so little to some so-called God-fearing Americans!

What a stunt! With all of the negative ads and the help of most of the media, Obama supporters have the audacity to to claim that Mrs. Hillary Clinton has been attacking Obama unfairly. Well in my opinion, put down the kool-aid. You folks are not only wet behind the ears, you have not lived yet. You only know the politics according to Obama, and slowly put surely the entire electorate of these United States of America will learn his policy of politics, to which he will find himself in a landslide DEFEAT. If you can't take the heat, stay the hell away from the kitchen. These news cast pundits, throwing the kitchen sink at Hillary have shown their tactics, which will only place their careers in question. In my opinion, both he and the rest of his dynamic duo are cry babies. God forbid if the dynamic duo make it to The White House. Those who do not go along with "their" new regime may well end up in the cornfield like in the episode in the Twilight Zone. Yep, allot of good folks / patriots may be turned into a jack in a box, martyrs to something called Democracy and America, which you find so many faults. This be my own opinion, yet many others keep saying the same thing. Hillary For President in 08, or Third Party creation to save Democracy. You are a Great disappointment Mr. Dean. But it be an ill wind that does not blow somebody any good. The American People are just now starting to smell the coffee. Hillary by far, and we will stand by her through thick and thin, rain or shine, to hell and back. God Bless The United States & Hillary Clinton! Confusion To Our Enemies, as the old saying goes

I cannot wait to see Obama in the White House!

Now thats modest. With obama we're sure america wont claim victory in a war, not won, YET. . .maybe bush and mcain should learn some ethics from this man. . .hmmm

That Oregon victory was certainly alot closer than we thought eh?

ONLY snake women be nomination

Obama, i really admired your character & perserverance

Obama, you can make. V r praying for you

He can claim what he wants, come November he can claim to be a loser thanks to us millions of Hillary Dems.

Oh he's ready, he just does not want to disresepct Hillary. He is going to kindly wait until she exists the race. The superdelegates need to wake up and smell the coffee and get this race over with.

He may not be ready to say the magic words.......but his supporters sure ARE!
YES WE CAN! YES HE DID! AND YES WE WILL!!!!!!!

Obama and his campaign don't have to declare a victory....America already knows it!

Go Obama!

Obama 08 & 12!

From the beginning, Obama's campaign has looked at the rules and decided on a winning strategy that involved campaigning in EVERY state to compete for delegates. Clinton thought she'd have it all locked up Super Tuesday, so she ignored all kinds of WHITE voters early on in the process, INCLUDING those in Michigan and Florida. Now, all of a sudden she's "fighting for every vote"? Please. How many times is she going to change her tune? Sounds like she's just "whistlin' dixie" to me.

The democratic party needs to be careful on this. I am a registered Republican, and I was going to vote for Hillary, if she was nominated. However, if Obama is the nominee, I will vote for McCain. I just feel we need someone with experience and knowledge of the way things really work. If you put Obama in as president, it could take him a year just to get something done. He hasn't been clear enough on his plans. I didn't vote for Bill when he ran for his first term, however, I voted for him for his second. I liked the things he did for this country, he's smart and knows what this coundry needs. Same with Hillary! She is very smart about policies and the way things work. We are in a critial state in this country. We NEED someone who can get us out of the terrible state that George Bush has us in. And I just do not feel that Obama can do it. Not at this time in history. He is a wonderful speaker, and I like him! However, I don't have confidence in him and I think that most people who voted in the primary for Hillary will feel the same way. The democratic party needs to take this into considerationl. They should win this election, but I'm afraid that they won't! At least I won't!

Your comment is awaiting moderation.
I bet you won't post but here goes………
the super dels need to decide NOW if they are going to overturn the will of the people. If they wait to overturn the will of the people there will be chaos, not just in the democratic party but in the UNITED states. People will come to understand that democracy as they believe it to be is no longer. People do not invest their money, time, talent and emotions so that they will be disregarded and tossed away. Americans believe in themselves. How many times does the vote need to be stolen or percieved to be stolen before people start to react. Everyone, Republican and democrat are watching.

OBAMA'S AFRICAN SIDE OF DICTATORIAL THIRD WORLD POLITICS OF UNILATERAL POWER GRAB AND CONTROL HAS TAKEN HOLD OF HIM. HENCE HE IS MAKING THE DECLARATION PREMATURELY REGARDLESS OF THE RULES. SUCH DECLARATIONS HAVE NEVER BEEN MADE BEFORE, NOT BEFORE THE CONVENTION

A year ago the Democratic Party had a lock on the White House with Hillary Clinton. Then Ted Kennedy came charging in from left field championing an unknown quantity, Obama, and split the party right down the middle. From that point on, CNN and FOX both conducted an all out campaign in favor of Obama. In one poll, 73% of the viewers agreed with me. I think this is a very dangerous thing. This has nothing to do with race or gender, experience or change, etc. This is a question of whether the media should be allowed to decide who the Party's candidate will be and what issues will be emphasized. I intend to support the Democratic Nominee, but the media's behavior is a serious threat to our democratic form of government.

when she is loss and than start campaigne 2012 and in senate only 1/2 half year with FULL SALARY

Why the Obama campaign has been so wishy washy? They can't seem to stand on solid ground of victory. If Clinton was in his positon, she would have declaird victory a long time ago.

What an idiot! Of course he can't claim victory this baby's going to the convention and Clinton will win the nomination.

So now we are afraid to declare victory? What would Clinton Hillary do? Get a life Obama and declare victory you coward!

we the voters can declare victory for him

congraudulations

Steady at the wheel.
These people who Obama got to run his campaign seem to be very sharp political operatives.
Hopefully, once June 3 comes, some of the sharp folks from Clinton's team will join the Obama team to end the Reps White House run.

This is a genteel statesman ... not an arrogant, cocky candidate.

Barack, remain true to your core and you will unite the party.

Pensilvania, West Virginia and Kentucky, we understand your vote against the black man; I am a white man, but I wish to live in a world where the color of your skin is not a problem. The guys from those states who actually have a degree actually vote for Obama. The uneducated ones from those states should be ashamed of themeselves. Please, go to school.

WHY SHOULD OBAMA, WHO HAS WON CLEARLY, TIP-TOE AROUND HILLARY AND HER HARD-HEADED SUPPORTS?

I AM PROUD THAT OBAMA IS OUR NOMINEE AND HE SHOULD CELEBRATE THE HARD WORK THAT HE HAS DONE.

Just saw on CNN where Hillary is going to Florida to campaign? Be careful Obama, she reminds me of a snake coiling up ready to strike. She's either campaigning for 2012, or is delusional, or there may be a plan to re vote, as unlikely as that seems. Something doesn't smell right!

Go Obamo Go!!! We're almost there.

It will be known in the History of the world that the first black president of the biggest super power of the world happened not without a fight of the many racists found specifically in Pennsilvania, West Virginia and Kentucky.

It is great to see a candidate who is down to earth. This is a first in several decades. Welcome change.

That's because Obama is not ready to be president.

HILLARY 08 or McCain 08 but NEVER NEVER NEVER Obama!!!!!!!!!!!!

She fought a good fight, but pride is hurting the party. She needs to stand aside and let a new generation take over.

you OBAMA'S are really full of it, last week you are claiming victory already. Now you telling us your not.
Only idiot will buy your games & you have a lot of it.

Imagine that!

Everyone knows Obama is arroganat and an elitist, but he has NOT won the nomination so he cannot claim he has.

And..... why would they even THINK about declaring a win.. Strange....

..... Remember Elections are elections.. they are NOT caucuses
..... Remember Florida and Michigan STILL count
..... Remember none of the Superdelegates has YET locked in their support
..... Remember millions and millions of us will vote ONLY Clinton

Its time for Obama campaign to give up their arrogance...

We DO have choices..

HILLARY '08... and nothing short of that...

Nope, not yet. The rules & numbers may change at the end of May but I still think he'll be the nominee. Of course, I believe it was a mistake not to campaign in WV & Kentucky – that may come back to haunt him later on.

Only one thing matters: winning the Presidency in November.

Our Electoral College is the most important metric the Party must consider

Who can command the most votes in the Electoral College?

Blue State Electoral College vote allocation:

Obama 66

Clinton 117

Swing State Electoral College vote allocation:

Obama 43

Clinton 99

These statistics are before the WV and KY blowouts!

2 to 1 the Democratic voters of the Swing States prefer Hillary Clinton. It is definitive.

The nomination decision is no longer disputable. It is irrational to nominate a candidate whose support is based on primary results from states that are unlikely to deliver Electoral College votes in November.

In summary, the voters of the states that the Democratic nominee MUST win have clearly spoken, and what they have decided must be respected; to do otherwise would be utterly foolish. The superdelegates, as the conscience and repository of wisdom for the Party, must do their duty and ensure that the strongest candidate receives the nomination. Without question, that nominee must be Hillary Rodham Clinton.

But we are so very close to that magic moment!

ummm. yah i get that but it takes 2026 at this point without Michigan and Florida to get the nomination.. NOT NOW, BUT IN AUGUST WHEN THE DELEGATES MAKE THEIR OFFICIAL BALLOT VOTES.

so i think we just all need to sit back and relax and see what happens at that time in Denver since there are many many rules that could ultimately change this thing.

I think that after the second ballot, which im sure this thing will go to, all bets are off on the pledged delegates and they are free to vote like superdelegates.

so, like i said. sit back and relax cuz this thing is long from over and no one should even try to call it 'Mission Accomplished". we all know how well that went over the last time we heard it!

Yes we can be one US one Democratic Party with an Obama/Hillary 08.

Well that was the deal to keep this thing clean and focused on McCain from here on out.

June 3rd will be hear soon!!!! In light of the Kennedy news the Democrates will definitely be looking to stabilize the Party and get behind Obama.

Let Wisdom Reign. No delegate should be left unturned.

EVERY VOTE COUNTS

I hope you guys in the media are happy... You should be ashamed at the way you railroaded Hillary..For shame....You guys are idiots..I am sick of you biased Obama jerks in the media. The coverage tonight was appalling..........You the media have pissed off a Hillary supporter..

Only voters and superdelegates with no brains want to support Obama.

What's a shame to declare anything when he doesn't even have enough of the magic number.

Shame on the Democratic Party and whoever can see this guy to win in November!

If Obama is that good, why can't he, at this point the race, close the deal?Why is he still losing to Hillary by big margins in both Kentucky and West Virginia?

It's gonna be a "Donnybrook" in Denver!

Hillary has the popular vote. How can the DNC and the superdelegates ignore this???

Obama, are you and your campaigh dsylexic, you cannot declare victory until you have won the nomination. You will not win the general election, Hillary kicked your Butt in KY, you are a loser and cannot close the deal. I can't wait until November when the republicans 527 kick your SOFT butt. What about the voters in Fla and Mi, you are scared you will lose those states. Bill Ayers is calling you. go on and talk to the terriost.

Then he needs to quit declaring it behind the scenes... what a jerk.......

Obama is smart and gracious.
Senator Ted Kennedy is right all along, even though he could not pronounce his name correctly in the beginning.

More hollow rhetoric from Obama. He is widely hated across key swing states and will cost the Dems the election. Throw this bum and his entourage out and declare Clinton the nominee. If he still clings to his false message of hope, the Dems should stage a sudden death overtime with a re-vote in Florida and Michigan. If he can win those, the title is his. If not, there should be more deliberations. He will not go for it because of fear.

Don't declare anything Obama. You have humility and respect and it shows. I will be at the rally in Tampa and we are ready....The Democratic party is ready for change.

its a shame that the people of the usa have forgotten HOW MR CLINTON LEAD THIS COUNTRY BACK IN 1993. and who better to lead again that his wife; i mean she would have the best adviser ever that is mr clinton him self and she sleeps with him. i am a democrat and i will not vote in the fall elections i rather stay sleeping. thank you Hillary for a wonderful campaign but its not over yet .

the reason for Ms Clinton winning the white states, is because she made sure that the race issue was brought up. Mr Clinton made this a race issue when they figured out that Obama was whipping them.

Obama is no fool, CNN continues to make this a race issue. They are making sure that they talk "RACE" TO DEATH. continually

The media gives Ms clinton more time on the AIR, We have counted the minutes given to Obama. Some commentators feels that he owes them something because they are white. Some comments have much to be desired.

The longer this takes the more hateful we all get towards the media and Ms Clinton and all of her Whites.

Obama might have well declared victory tonight, he won't be able to in November. Only a ticket with Clinton can bring the Dems a win. At this point John McCain will be the next President. So much for Obama winning silly small caucuses that are tradiitonally GOP states in the electoral college. Big mistake for the Obama campaign, liberal media, DNC and Howard Dean. The sexism shown by them in this race toward Senator Clinton has been deplorable. No woman, or truly liberal man, should vote for Obama-and no one needs a college degree either to understand that. How can there be a delegates' finish line with Hillary''s votes stolen from Florida and Michigan? It is most sad to be a Dem right now...

DUH!!!!!!!!!

PRIDE COMES BEFORE THE GREAT FALL!!

OBAMA'S ARROGANCE IS ALIVE AND RAMPANT IN HIS OWN MIND WE CAN'T WAIT TO SEE HIM FALL!!!

wait a minute didnt he say that after may 20th he would be victorious. now he is saying he is not victorious. hahahahaha. your kidding me right. sounds like he might be taking cues from John Kerry's flip flopping strategy book. ok either you are or you are not the presumptive nominee, oh but wait the primary's are still going on so he cant be the Democrat nominee. well well well so Hillary had to snap him out of his fantasy, and wake up his supporter's. to see that he was not the nominee. hummmm. and this is hope and change that we are going to see in the White House. flip-flopping.

I think the Obama campaign team fully understand game and the process,
they are well on target, Barack will, and I say , will capture the nomination.

Hillary will be our next President. Hillary 08

Nobody wants a first lady who is not proud of her country and nobody wants a President who has a mentor like Pastor Wright.

dont count your chickens before they hatch

hillary08

Definitely this guy will succeed to unify half of the Dem party

i hope super delegates do their job and put the woman who can win in and not the change man who has nothing to back it up

GREAT WINS FOR SEN. OBAMA AND SEN. HILLARY.

OBAMA 08

David Gergan and the pundits just brought up a poll they conducted about was race a factor in your vote in Kentucky, where were these polls with the blacks in SC and the rest of the south. everytime there was a big black population on the screen in these primaries , these same people said Obama was expected to do well in these areas.Give me a break. Just as many or more blacks are voting for Obama because of his race more than the issues. If his skin was white they would not vote for him. Let's be fair.

Victory, how can he, its ad to say the he will win but yet he cant close the deal and she is still winning, if you were going to be president shouldnt you be winning it all or atleast be close

Well, isn't that big of you? You're simply amazing!!! I can't wait until you fall flat on your face.

soon,my man,soon....

It's over. It's done. It's been over for a while. The laws of mathmatics are not going to change no matter how many times the Clinton campaign screams that it will.

I hope the supers will now put this thing to bed after this clear majority amongst pledged delegates. Please Sen. Clinton, you are hurting the party. Just because you and your campaign can't accept this doesn't make it less true. Please consider the democratic party and our potential for Nov. Work whatever deal you need; to be able to live with yourself and accept this heartbreaking defeat, but quickly bring this to an end. We have such a wonderful opportunity. Dem congress, dem white house, potentially a liberal court. Think about it Sen. Clinton. You may undermine this opportunity, when you of all people should be chomping at the bit to make it so.

Obama LIED again....he just declared victory in Iowa.

Obamas arrogance and LIES have only pushed millions of us to the last straw....we have now reached a boiling point.

Obamas WORDS and ACTIONS have just pushed us for the last time.

In November we will let our voice be heard LOUD and CLEAR so that the DNC, Pelosi and the Elite no longer manipulate any further Democratic selections in the future.

We are NOT going to vote for Obama in November.

We are going to VOTE NO to Manipulating the Elections!
We are going to VOTE NO to Sexism
We are going to VOTE NO to Corporate America
We are going to VOTE NO to the Elite

We are gong to Vote NO for Obama!!

Wonder how much HRC paid CNN to place an ad on the right hand side of the political ticker.
I'm guessing since, CNN is so in the tank for her that one was a freebie

He should claim it and name Governor Kathleen Sebelius as his VP. They will win the election in 2008 by a huge margin.

OBAMA CAN HAVE ALL HE WANTS, BUT WILL LOOSE IN NOV. IF NOMINATED. IT WILL BE THE LITTLE BIG HORN FOR O.B. THE MEDIA, O.B. SUPPORTERS (CLINTON HATERS) , DNC , AND PRESS HAS MADE THEIR BED. WE WILL VOTE MC CAIN ,AND 4 YRS LATER WE WILL HAVE HRC FOR PRESIDENT. NO OBAMA. WE DONT NEED A GREENHORN IN OFFICE.THIS ISN'T A GAME WE OUR PLAYING WITH OUR COUNTRIE'S LIVES. WE NEED A REAL LEADER AND FIGHTER FOR US.(HRC)

Obama. You cannot win the General Election.

Do the right thing for your country and take the VP slot under Hillary. You will be in the White House for 16 years, or you will NEVER be there.

You cannot win the swing states. It is not fair, but you cannot do it.

If you care about this country take the VP and wait.

The voters in Fl & MI did NOT make the rules..they went to the polls when they were told to go vote...the Democratic Politicans blundered the vote in those states

Why should the voters not have their voices heard because of Political Blunders!

We aleady know that because the news has been circulating for him not to declare victory to prevent insult to Hillary's supporters. Well it is too late my friend because Hillary's supporters are not stupid.

By the way his margin of winning in Oregon is not that wide. Whooooh vote for McCain!

Sen Obama should be running against McCain not fighting for delegates......Obama/Edwards 08

Who you kidding? In fact you being in Iowa speaks alot to what Obama thinks! Hillary delivers her second large landslide, and
you find it difficult to declare yourself a winner. This article is a joke!

Typically unpresumptious. Even apart from the sheer math, OBAMA is the President of the USA that the country and the world so desperately needs.

AMERICA IT IS TIME TO REDISCOVER YOUR SOUL AND BE TRUE TO THE GREAT SPIRIT OF YOUR FOUNDERS.
VOTE OBAMA

Hillary needs to win 75% of remaining states and 93% of super delegates to overtake OBAMA.....

That is the mathematically impossible since she never got 75% from any states.

Hillary you make people to think women as short sighted, greedy, fight for nothing.

Please go home with dignity and do us that favor

BE-AWARE (BEWARE)... This argument about who is more patriotic and more of a full-blooded American should pique the ears of every American – Asian, Hispanic, White, Samoan, Black, Native American, women, men, etc.

When people begin to throw around nationalism and patriotism to coerce and hijack the public's mind, we are in trouble. These arguments are used by devious people with nefarious intentions. They seek to rob the populace of their vote and individual voice by confusing the populace into thinking they are patriotic and thus voting for and aligning themselves with those pushed forward as the most patriotic, because no one sees himself/herself as unpatriotic. Its always the next person...

But then again we are all the next persons as well.

Research your candidate's positions – do not let rumor, innuendo, or sound bites clipped and deliciously wrapped to divide and confuse the populace rob you of your independent thinking and vote.

"And thus I clothe my naked villainy/With old odd ends, stol'n forth of holy writ;/And seem a saint, when most I play the devil." (Richard III 1.3.336-38)

Just keep up the good work Obama.
We're behind you.
Unite us.
But do NOT have Hillary as your VP!
She's far too divisive and would run over you like a Mac Truck!

Well maybe he's not as dumb as he looks! He has not won yet and more than likely.....WONT!!

Even though it looks like he's got it wrapped up, Obama is right in not jumping to declare victory. Nobody wants to look arrogant like that; and there is still that slim possibility that something disastrous could derail his campaign. I hope, for the sake of our country though, that all goes well and he will be able to declare his victory soon so that we can move on to November, and the white house !

Of course not because you just can't count Hillary out! She just keeps fighting hard.

Keep-on keepin-on Hillary!

HILLARY 08

HE BETTER NOT !
