Over the last two days, I have tried to remain objective with Senator Clinton over her RFK reference. I do not believe she meant any harm to her fellow colleague, but regardless of the intent, the comment was completely inappropriate. As this primary has progressed, it has become more and more challenging for me to retain the respect I have long held for Senator Clinton.

If Clinton says she is the best candidate to go against Senator McCain, what is she waiting for to show it? She has wasted so much valuable time triangulating against a fellow Democrat (now I see what that term means), instead of going "toe to toe" with McCain. Most Democrats would rather see how our candidates would go against the Republican nominee, but Obama seems to be the only one doing that now (very well I might add).

Clinton has a lot of ground to make up now as far as I am concerned. Hillary is going to have to re-earn some respect at this point, and the only I see it happening is if she ends this contest with some dignity after June 3rd and campaigns like she really means it for Obama, who will likely be the nominee by sheer mathematics. It is the only way I see how the Clintons retain their legacy for the future. I pray they are listening.

Si se puede!

To An OHIO VOTER & ALL OF HILLARY SUPPORTERS,

If you guys prefer Hillary to Obama that's cool, but what makes you guys look and sound so foolish is this, All of you have complained about the Bush Admin, keeping our soldiers in IRAQ. Well, you know Hillary will not be the nominee, let's get real here, so why shoot yourselves in the foot, and I'm not trying to be funny, but we have soldiers dying everyday. I don't have a son in the military, but I do have a heart for a mother who does! I sure hope none of the comments saying, "You will vote for McCain if Hillary is not the nominee" are from mothers who have children in the military, because there is a saying,"You will reap what you sow". While these soldiers are sacrificing their lives, you Hillary supporters are saying, "We don't care, if Hillary is not the nominee, our vote goes to McCain, your lives don't matter, OUR EGO DOES!

"This isn't American Idol"
Sounds more like Obama…

Hillary & Huckabee need to be ashame of there self, to invoke this kind of trash in this race. Hillary needs to bow out gracefully. Give it up girl we know you are a strong but yet stupid women. How can you represent the Dem's when you act like a spoiled brat. You just say anything out of your mouth, why don't you just stop now because I am very upset with you.

How can anyone buy into the falsehood that Hillary is ahead in the popular vote? Is it because she repeats over and over that people (including her) begin to buy into the lie? I just don't get it…..

How come I don't see any Obama supporters saying they won't vote for HIllary if she wins the nomination? Oh wait, that's because she can't win… nevermind. Talk about drinking the Koolaid!

As an independent, I am TOTALLY behind Barack Obama. HOWEVER, if the Clintons are anywhere near the White House I will vote McCain. I wasn't going to make that decision, but the Clintons leave me no choice. It's Obama or nothing for the DNC.

I do not want the deceit, lies, pension for inciting unrest, dividing the country, instilling greater racial problems than needed to be. Well, there's just NO WAY. I don't want an impeached former president bullying the people around Washington. Obama already said, as well as supporter, let her run the race until the end….but the Clintons try to place blame on Obama for it and that's an outright lie to voters.

I was willing to be reasonable about the Clintons (who have been shady ever since Arkansas) until these past couple months. That's it. Hillary just is not presidential material…period.

Any Democrat that would vote for McCain please make sure you remember to tell your kids how you helped to screw up the country some more because you supported the worst kind of sore loser ever to run for office. Remember, Ma and Pa Clinton are the ones responsible for GW Bush being in the White House because of all their scandals and unethical behaviors. And, their story continues where it left off. The dopes from Hope are a truly lost cause. And, the only office for McCains age group is Pope, but I doubt he would qualify with friends like Mr Hagee. Imagine, an 80 year old president in his 2nd term. Yikes!! Vote of Obama and end the drama.

GO HILLARY!

This is America and Hillary has every right to remain in this race!

Please let everyone vote and have every vote count!

And the ticket should be HILLARY/obama or obama/HILLARY if the democrats want to win the white house!

Why should Senator Obama agree to a revote, that doesn’t make him a bad person, we all know if Clinton was losing this request of fake concern would have never suffaced. No one told Bill who to select for VP, now all a sudden a lot of you think you can tell Obama, not…………..that’s his chorce as it always have been for the president. ho do you think you are to tell him who to choose for VP? no one told Bill.

If Hillary was winning, Florida and Michigan do you honestly think she would care anything about your vote, do you honestly think she would have agree to a revote if Obama was losing? When she agreed not to count your votes, that showed how much she cared about your vote.

It is sad that she is proud by encouraging her supporters to lobby for her out side of were the leaders will hold a meeting, judging by most of the comments on here from her supporters, this will put a lot of people in harm way, especially if it is not a peaceful rally.
Let’s be honest democrats, once the nominee (Obama) is seated, how many of you think she will have a second thought or concern about you?

Please share, We want to know.

Those calling for One-person, one-vote– I agree with you, but ONLY IF THE CAUCUS STATES ARE GIVEN THE SAME TREATMENT AS THE PRIMARY STATES. I votes in KS, for Obama– in my polling station alone, there were 3,000 voters, and the other 4 stations in my city showed the same turnout. Over 75% of us voted Obama. Don't our votes count? Don't the votes of the 25% of Clinton supporters count? It's not that we disagree every vote should count- it's that Sen. Clinton is NOT for counting EVERY VOTE, only the votes that support HER.

CNN- PLEASE POST FOR ONCE!

Clinton has no excuses for her statements. She said them and she meant them. I think she is trying to provoke one of her supporters to try to hurt Senator Obama. When there is a "Clinton Body Count" and then you hear these kind of unexcusable statements, one can not but wonder that the clinton's are dangerous people to be around. There are over 20 so called suicides and gun shootings. Somebody please do a statistic ratio for us on knowing that many people dying this way. I know one person on both sides of the family that committed suicide. No one killed by gunshot. One from a car accident, and I'm 50 years old. These people know over 20-27 people with questionable deaths! She will not and cannot win this nomination. How convienent that they all were "about" to give testimony. Some of them may be perfectly innocent, but not all of them. The law of statistics has put the truth to the negative side.

Oh Hillary. Say girl, maybe you need to try a Beltone. You know the little card you received in the mail for hearing loss.

Clinton can not blame Obama for her loss. She has to look within herself and look at the people she surrounded herself with. When Obama was trailing, you did not here him complaining about counting Florida and Michigan. Also, there is just as much racism as there is sexism in this race. I am tired of the Clinton supporters whinning. Let's move on with the procession.

I think superdelegates bear the responsibility for what their canditate says. By acting or not acting, they are making their choice. What if some of Hillary's expectations will realize?

Hillary you stay in, Bush cheated in the election twice, Obama and his empty headed cult are cheating now, we don't need another air head for president!!!

I JUST CANT UNDERSTAND HOW MY FELLOW AMERICAN LOSSES THEIR MIND, AND VOTE FOR OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I REALLY CANT EMAGINE, WHY AMERICA IS NOT ANYMORE A GREAT NATION LIKE BEFORE, I LOVE THIS GREAT NATION, BUT A LOT OF MY FELLOW CITIZEN ARE BECAMING MORE CRAZY AND SHORT MINDED AND NUTS.

WAKE UP ALL OF YOU CITIZEN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! LETS ALL VOZE FOR HILLARY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! CLINTON WILL PUT BACK ARE GOOD DAYS AHEAD. STRONG DOLLARS, STRONG ECONOMY, JOBS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MORE JOB!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! PROSPERIOUS LIFE LIKE THE OLS YEARS OF THE 1992 TO 2000.

Obama , Dodd , Kennedy , Kerry , Richardson , Duachel , Casey , Edwards , Carter , The DNC ….. Don't get !!!!! ……Obama Can't Win , He Doesn't Have The Trust From The Democratic Base ……. Hillary Has The Hearts And Minds Of the Loyal Democratic base !!! …….. Life Long Democrats Like Myself Will Place Their Vote "ONLY" For Hillary Clinton , Or John McCain …… It's Past The Point Of The Democratic Platform Policies …….. It's About What is Best For The Counrty ….. America Needs A Strong Pro - American President !!!!!

Hillary , John Mc Cain 2008

The writing is on the Wall. Hillary wants an unreasonable amount of the delegates seated from Mi & FL.

When she doesn't get her way, she is going to invoke sexism and take this to the convention and split the party.

Horrible…absolutley HORRIBLE!!!

`I am an Obama supporter and I do not believe Hillary wants anything like that to happen to him. I do believe she is wanting another story like Rev.Wright or the bitter comment to destroy him. I do believe there is a lot of deranged people out there that would pick up on those kind of remarks and act on them. She needs to drop out now.

Obama 08

Connie from Logansport,IN

I just saw the video on AP when Sen. Obama was asked the question regarding Hillary's RFK comment and Sen. Obama state that he did not think Sen. Clinton meant anything by it and we should move on. Hillary's campain is trying to make something out of it. Hillary's campaign should stop so many incorrect spins and shut up. I am so tired of Hillary that I am just sick. Please post.

I am to the point of not blaming Hillary as much as the SuperDelegates!!

What is wrong with you people??????!!!!!!!!!!

Get her out of there or we WILL be looking at a Bush 3rd term!

SHUT THIS GOD-AWFUL WOMAN UP. I am so sick of her and her negative spewing because she lost….

So now the Clintons plan to "work" the back rooms at the convention to try to steal the nomination? I will NOT vote for this hag no matter what.

Woman, you've got not chance in this world to be norminated and that the simple fact…

"Clinton campaign co-chairman Terry McAuliffe said Sunday that she had been making a valid point about the timeline of the race, telling Fox News Sunday that “a hyped-up press over Memorial Day weekend, the Obama campaign inflaming it, tried to take these words out of context.”

No No No campaign co-chairman dont blame this on the Obama camp your canidate made her own gaffe and the media inflamed it, it was well on its way to being an issue before the Obama camp even replied. And besides he has said several times that he did not think she meant what most thought she was implying. Yall always want to blame Obama for everything and never take responsiblity for your own actions, please.

TO ALL HILLARY SUPPORTERS

grow up
learn to count the math
and by all means
see her for what she is
unfit to lead any thing to do with our goverment
get pissed off if you like
she is making a blind fool out of all of you

Hillary is still running for one reason only-she can't believe and will not accept that she has lost the nomination. It wasn't supposed to end this way. She was the front runner before any votes were cast. She had the democratic establishment on her side, with over 100 superdelegates pledged to her before the first vote was cast. She had more money than any of the other candidates before a single vote was cast. But when the votes were cast, they didn't pick her. IOWA picked Obama and Edwards over her! And we all know it was downhill from there. So, what else can she do, but hope and pray for something to go wrong with Obama because if she isn't the nominee, her story will go down as one of the greatest political tragedies ever. And her story will not be written that she was somehow the subject of sexism, but utter organizational and management failure. It was her fault and her poor management skills that led to her fall. Her campaign management was a part of her audition for the role of president and she blew it big time!

It is a shame that evrybody is trying to push her out of this race and it is shameful by Obama campaign to take her word out of context in regard to the RFK remark. How low can they get? They are doing anything they can to knock her out. But she still has a chance and she is fighing because she cares about her country and she knows that she is the best candidate to beat McCain.

Obama camp has proven to be a divider not a uniter as they claim. What a hypocrisy!!!!

Go for it Hillary go all the way to the end. Tere are millions cheering for you.

If this isn't resolved before the convention, we'll have thrown away the third presidential election in a row that we could have won. Do we really want that?

Hillary is the most capable and vetted candidate - she is a true democrat. Obama does not have the judgement to lead our nation in these incredibly dangerous times. This isn't American Idol this is the presidency!

He is inexperienced and will not get my vote in the fall.

The one and ONLY thing she's in the race for is the MONEY.

Think for a minute people. Is it Obama's fault that he ran his campaign based around the current voting rules of the party? He went after delagates and did very will with the caucuses. He campaigned very very well. A year ago Clinton was the favorite and Obama was chasing a dream. Is it Obama's fault that Michigan and Florida broke the rules? Let's not forget that whether she liked it our not Clinton went along with the punishment until she start to fall behind. Obama wants some voice to be heard by Florida and Michigan.

Don't disenfranchise the caucus votes in order to claim Clinton has the vote lead. That is as bad as not counting Floriday and Michigan. If we need to fix the caucus system it's best to do so after this nomination process not during and discounting the voice of hundreds of Americans.

Lastly for Clinton supporters, do some homework on Obama. Read his Blueprint for change. There is a lot of substance to his policies and speeches. You will find that he and Clinton are not that different in policies. They are very different in approach that is all. (that's saying you don't count age,race and gender.) Obama's upbrining and family is probably more like yours or you can relate to his background if you take a look. Hilary is great, but ran a poor strategy for the nomination. Don't blame Obama for it and vote McCain.

Obama people get over it……………………………..
Bobby Kennedy was not a big deal.

Clinton supporters:

You blame the Obama camp for fanning controversy over her remarks.

Sorry, that is not the case.

I follow her campaign, watch/read her remarks first-hand, unfiltered…based on that, I am really insulted by her remarks and twisting of reality.

This is not the media's fault or other candidates' fault.

This is her, 100%. She could have been good, but that ship sailed months and months ago.

So, people get sent to guantanimo bay for less than this.

Just because her husband is the one who started the whole extraordinary rendition thing doesn't mean she should be immune to it.

I believe she didnt mean harm about the RFK statement- but she is DOING harm by the fact that she doesn't concede—she has lost!

"Pat -There is one question that I have not hear addresed about Obama. If he had such a meger upbringing how was he able to attend such a prestigious college and how did he become so wealthy at such a young age?"

He was able to attend such a prestigious college because he got scholarships to a good school early on because he was so intelligent, and did well enough to be accepted at Columbia and Harvard. He went there on student loans that he only recently finished paying off. He got rich at such a young age because he wrote 2 best selling books. Have you read them? They are excellent.

Hillary is the most talented women alive period.

Hillary for President……………………08………………….

Hillary beats out the playing field.

Osama Bin Laden said, give me $500,000 and I will bankrupt the United States. $3 Billion on the war so far it is clear he is winning this race. Obama will not beat McCain, so blaming Clinton for this is an act of cowardice. Every person voting for Obama, who has no idea how to fix this, is a vote to say the death of more soldiers is not important, and the mounting debt is not important. It is so much easier to blame somebody else rather than take responsibility for your own action. So the deaths, the bankruptcy of the United States, the decline of USA influence falls on every singe democrat who voted for Obama. At least have a back bone and accept what you have chosen.

Another 3000 dead American soldiers and another $3 Trillion spend on the war will leave a nation bankrupt. Osama Bin Laden’s ultimate goal is within sight, yet you blame Clinton.

NO YOU DIDN'T SAY YOU "RESPECT" BILL CLINTON !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
BILL HAD LOTS OF LADY "FRIENDS" NOT JUST MONICA
HILLARY AND BILL CAN NOT SPEAK ON VALUES AND MORALS !

I sincerly hope Hillary gets the nomination. Bill is correct she deserves it! She deserves to take the fall when Mc Cain wins.
The divided party always loses

"Will the Clinton's say they "inflammed" the bitter matter or Rev. Wright. You said what you said. The Obama camp didn't need to do anything further. Hillary know's the reason she is still running is because she can't stand to lose. This was suppose to be handed to her on a silver platter. The amount your campaign is in debt should say a whole lot about her campaign.

Stick with it Hillary…YOU WILL BE THE NOMINEE!

GOOD WILL PREVAIL OVER THE SUBVERSIVE, 'UNDER THE RADAR' POLITICS OF BARACK nOBAMA!

HILLARY CLINTON 2008!

Hillary threw Florida and Michigan under the bus when it was convenient for her. Think what you want, support who you want but don't ever forget this fact.

Why? - simply because two royal families is enough. Son of a president, wife of a president, daughter of a president… Then one can vote for war and have no any responsibility… not even a modest jail time… or some money to compensate these 10B/month for the war, and many tens of thousands of dead (if Iraq civilians are counted as humans).
23 senators voted agains war, but Hillary and McBush happen to be among the 77 that voted for it. Guilty.

Hope we return to democracy:
Obama 2008

Go home Hilary

Vic Nashville, TN, Your comment is unbelieveable and ignorrent at best. It is becaues of people like you our country is in the state it is in.
People like you will distroy our nation and we will no longer be free.

Someday you will learn what freedom really means!

God Bless You!

Go away Hillary, Obama 08′, Come on supers, end this.

I don't mind her running until the end but stop telling lies such as that she won the popular vote. Play by the rules–win or lose. She has lost the most contests, popular vote , delegates and now superdelegates. If Obama does not win she will be blamed for dragging this on once it was pointless.

I see Hillary's paid bloggers are up early today. Get this in your big heads Hillary supporters, she will not be the Democratic nominee. Even if Obama loses the GE, the Clintons will never get back in the White House. LMAO

The shot heard around the world was self inflicted…

It is so unfortunate that Obama is the likely Democratic candidate to become Commander-in-Chief because when he was graduating high school, he would not have qualified for military service because of his experimentation with drugs.

Anybody out there that actually believe Hillary still has a legitimate chance of beating Obama needs to find some good medication to stop their mental dillusions. The superdelegates, most who know the Clintons on a personal level unlike the voters, are more than happy not to have to give their vote to Hillary. They don't like Bill and Hillary for reasons that the average voters know nothing about. They will not change their mind. They cannot stand the Clintons and as long as they have a viable alternative their votes will not go Hillary's way.

I think its the right time for the democratic party to split. Hillary should run as an INDEPENDENT if she doesn't get the democratic nomination.

GO Hillary! Go Hillary!

Look Guys, Hillary has better chances to win popular vote in general election an much better chance to actually get elected if you consider Obama vs Clinton performance in the swing states. So guys close your elitists mouthes and listen to the people.

I'm appalled at the rudeness and lack of civility used to atack at Hillary by the Obama suppoters. I will never vote for Obama,And Florida will not go with Him no matter what John King and his comments will say,And everything she says is being taken out of context .It's just ridiculous.In the general election Obama will not close the deal,He is unelectable and even that you have given him and easy ride on your reporting what is true is that Hillary is the best choice.And she does have the popular vote count.

So now the new thing is the Clinton camp trying to blame Obama for the blow up over her gaffe. There is a way to run a graceful campaign and stay in the race, but that's not what she is doing. Mudsling and blame is shameful.

I still do not understand what comments have to do with you staying in the race. Please explain….

I would just like to say that if "the unspeakable" happens… it would be the start of the second Civil War in American history. I'm just saying, American should think long and hard about the repercussions of their actions.

OBAMA HAD THIS RACE FIXED FOR HIM FROM DNC,MEDIA,PRESS AND THE SUPER DELIGATES HE BOUGHT. THEY ARE ALL BIAS AGAINST HRC BECAUSE SHE IS A WOMAN. HRC IS OUR BEST CANIDATE ,BUT THAT DOSN'T MATTER TO THIS PART OF AMERICA. THEY SCREW THINGS UP LIKE THEY ALWAYS DO.OBAMA WONT WIN IN NOV.

Hey everyone! Why not just relax and start focussing on winning the General Election. Hillary is over, let her sink as she wishes to sink. All this Hillary bashing only intensifies the focus upon her. Ignore her and she'll just go away.

TO OHIO VOTER,

You seem to be very busy!!!

At this point, Hillary should not be in the news. The news now is between Obama and Mcain. Surely, another candidate would run against her for her NY Senatorial seat and by then the Clinton's would finally be done with, except if Chelsea later decide to go into politics. Chelsea even has a better chance of being the first female President unlike her mother, provided she(Chelsea) learns not to be heartless like her mum.

Her comment about RFK had NOTHING to do with Obama!!! Honestly, she could say "the sky is blue" and you Obama idiots would try to twist the words to make it seem like an insult. Get over yourselves!!

All of you McCain supporters, Clinton lovers, think about it, Lets give Hillary 70% of Puerto Rico, split Montana and South Dakota. Barack only needs 25 delegates at that point, which gives Billary 88% of the remaining delegates.

This is an imposible senario for the Hillster, Barack will run againt the the Viet Nam warrior the can not stand behind our warriors that keep us free! McCain will be defeated in the general election.

An endless war, torture, 4 more years of Bush economics are not going to elect McBush and we will be free from the fear once again!

I pray War crimes are looked at closely to ensure to the world that no one is above the law and those who broke it will be punished!

God bless our Democratic President, Barack Obama, God bless our Democratic Congress and Senate to change the course that the Republicans refuse to change! And God bless America.

If you vote for McCain, our country will go bankrupt and the deficit will grow at a pace of 700 billion a year, or nearly a trillion a year.

When you over star yr invitation that is what starts to happen.

Just like GW Bush in the 2000, trying to bully herself into the nomination. How despicable!

Mrs Clinton= bla bla bla bla whatever…

You fool no one Hillary Clinton! We see very clearly the wishes of your dark heart and the bad seeds you plant with your 'mispeaks'. All I can say is the EYES OF THE ENTIRE WORLD are watching this election. No one had better harm a hair on the head of Sen. Obama or his family.

Barack Obama for President 08/12

The simple fact is that she hopes it happens. You Hillary lovers may not like that, but the truth hurts. (Note: I didn't say she would oversee it). If you have not figure out by now that this woman will literally do ANYTHING to get elected President then you are a fool.

However - she had no Plan B when she failed to secure the nomination on Super Tuesday, and she can't even manage a crisis like a word slip-up.

She has eminently disqualified herself from the serious consideration for President that she never deserved in the first place.

One final point: If Hillary is as smart as everyone says she is, why was she stupid enough to say what she did?

So tired of the Clinton's & Bushes!

Let someone else have a chance!
(NOT McCAIN!!!!!!!!!!!)

Obama '08

IT IS SIMPLY IDIOTIC FOR HER TO CONTINUE. SHE SHOULD BOW OUT GRACEFULLY NOW OR DISGRACEFULLY LATER.

Jack May 25th, 2008 12:15 pm ET
There's no doubt in my mind that Hillary Clinton is more electable….. It's all about the Electoral College…. and the Demographics in Ohio, PA, and Florida have rejected Obama overwhelmingly (and these are Democratic voters!)
without Hillary's supporters in Ohio, PA, and Florida, Obama cannot beat McCain in Nov
———————————————————————————————–
That’s the point it's in your mind, not the majority of voters that voted for Obama……

When I first Clinton say she will keep fighting for woman, two states who broke rules, the media is bias, she was winning first, if she was a republican she would be the nominee by now. The only way she would have beat Bush in 2004, is votes from the very people she didn’t call hard working white voters.

Hillary is a highly intelligent woman, but at the same time she will say and do anything to win.. Thank you Obama, we the voters hear you loud and clear, we the majority do know you care about the poor, the sick, the disabled, the veterans. “Hillary, for those of us who KNOW you, no explanation is needed“…what SAD about this quote is she really believe this no matter what damage she causes to the demo crated party.

What if Obama beats McCain, will you still say no one but Hillary can beat him after November?

Why are people afraid to really post their own opinions instead of post bites (derived from sound bites)? For example, is Hillary really ahead in the electoral map - or are you just repeating it? Another common one is the idea that someone would vote McCain if Hillary does not win; that type of post cannot be from a serious Democrat because Obama and Hillary have many of the same policies. Instead, there is an appearance of "republican talk radio" gamesmanship. Be honest and think independent - I vote no more post bites allowed in the comments! Come on CNN - clean up the posts and keep it real.

Hillary, your statements, especially your lies are well planned out. You know exactly what your saying, because some of your gullible supporters believe your lies. Some of your supporters know your lying but are only fooling themselves. You said your in it to see all votes count, that's a lie, you said your a head on the popular vote, that's a lie, you said you want to stay in until Florida and Michigan votes are seated, that's a lie, because you agreed before the campaining began not to included them. You said your comments about RFK were not referenced to Obama, that's a lie, because the only way your going to win is unless something happens to him. Get out LIAR.

OBAMA HAS TOO MANY PERSONAL PROBLEMS AND TOO LIMITED ON THE ISSUES FOR HIM TO BEAT MCCAIN. POLLS IN MAJOR SWING STATES ARE SHOWING THIS. THERE MAY STILL BE MORE PERSONAL PROBLEMS IN THE PIKE ON OBAMA. IF THE DELEGATES BURY THEIR HEADS IN THE SAND AND REFUSE TO SMELL THE COFFEE, IT WILL ONLY BE AT THE DETRIMENT OF THE DEMOCRATS IN NOVEMBER…ANOTHER FOUR YEARS (PERHAPS EIGHT), OF LICKING THE WOUNDS OF DEFEAT…HILLARY IS DEMOCRAT'S BEST BET WITHOUT DOUBT

I support you all the way Hillary! Everyone needs to come out of denial and realize that if Obama was such a strong candidate he would not be losing these last primaries (and with so overwhelming losses!). Let's not get swept up in the arrogance and try to win in September. People, Obama is not a sure win. Face reality.

I believe Hillary's only goal now is to make sure Obama doesn't win. "Hell hath no furry like a woman scorned". It sad, because she is willing to destroy the party. I believe she is willing to destroy America. Her vote for me or else attitude is both divisive, and destructive. She is serious about the notion it's either her or McCain. Looks like for more years of Bush politics. Thank Hillary!

hey john

GET OUT OBAMA

his supporters dont realize we hate him as much as you do hillary
either way 1/2 of america will be unhappy when this is over
i say let him have it hillary we all know you have something on him let it drop.

hillary/08 who cares about the democractic party we need someone for all of america not just black america

Well it is obvious that the Barak Obama campaign is lying about not starting the negative attacks in the first place and just playing the same old Washington games now spinning it to "apology accepted" status. (And who is Barak Obama to "accept" an apology on behalf of the Kennedy family anyway???)

Too bad CNN chose not to report on the entire op ed, which is a very well written piece by the true Republican candidate and the only one with a chance to win the general election.

At the beginning of this primary season, I was very excited about the prospect of having a Clinton in the White House again. After watching this campaign, however, I have lost a bit of respect for the Clintons. I believe that Obama is the kind of leader we need if we are to evolve as a nation. He continues to prove himself.
Having said that, if he is not the nominee come convention time, I will absolutely 100% support Sen. Clinton. I do not like her antics, but her policies are too similar to Sen. Obama's to vote for McCain out of bitterness when our nation is at stake. Point blank… I hope to God that Obama will be our next President, but anyone on either side who says they'll vote McCain or stay home in November SURELY isn't looking at policies or issues.

How can you say Obama's campaign inflamed this issue? I thought they were very restrained, just calling it an unfortunate comment. Much more so than Hillary has been about the stupid statements he has made. She has run with them for days. He has been pretty consistent about downplaying her mistakes. Some of his supporters have not, but he himself has mostly encouraged people to move on from her gaffes.

Hillary thought as much about her remark as Barack did about his "bitter" remark. How quickly did Hillary's campaign agree that Barack misspoke, or didn't mean it? They rode that misfortunate comment into the ground. But, I suppose it would be sexist to not forgive and forget Hillary's misstatements.

Obama's campaign was accused of fanning the flames of Hillary's horrific RFK remark??? My God!! The flames were like an out-of-control forest fire which needed no fanning!!!! She NEVER said she was sorry in the way she should have!!! It's typical and disgusting behaivor on her behalf and I'm stunned! She has destroyed any respect the ANYONE still had for her, even if they admit it or not! Time will be the judge of that. As far as her continuing her fight to win…yawn!

Her statement was simply a mistake.
Some mistakes are politically fatal and THIS IS ONE!
She inadvertently has risked Obama's life and her own life needlessly. She is not ready at 3:00PM why is she going to be ready at 3:00AM!

As an impartial person I must point out that we don't pick our primary nominees by popular vote and our president isn't selected by popular vote (al a 2000, 2004.) Why is this arguement constantly waged by clinton and her supporters.
I just say lose gracefully and don't claw and scratch at this point. clinton supporters are so devoted to her winning that they seem to step outside of logic for her.
Regardless of her loss we still need a democrat in office. I say get your feelings off of your sleeve and start to fight the next battle which is the one against the republicans.
Any person who says they will vote for mccain when hillary loses is either doing it out of spite or doing it for divisive reasons. hillary and barack are on the same side. mccain is the enemy!

Wasn' t Obama president before? I think his name was Jimmy Carter then.

Hillary—

Here's a twist; offer Barack the VP slot on your soon to be announced Independent ticket. No, on second thought he may want to start a book club with Raul Castro.

obama always inflames the situation and then backs away and says it was me i denouce those statements. he is a joke and so is his wife. thank god he wont win in nov. i dont want anyone as racist as him, his wife, and pastor in the white house. IF he does get in by some chance wright better forbidden to step on the white house grounds

I see the McCain supporters are still out there pretending that they want to cast a vote for Hillary.

Doesn't that cynical old game ever get tiresome to play? Not while there's still even a minute chance for you to throw a monkey wrench into the other side's proceedings, I guess… you guys really are kind of like Hillary in that regard.

And to everyone else out there: I hope you realize by now that probably around 80% minimum of the "Hillary supporters" out there who are saying that they'd vote for McCain over Obama are really just elephants in donkey's clothing.

America have to really really think about what they want in next 4 or 8yrs. People who voted in 2000 and 2004 have to think once who they did vote for and why they did so. People who did not vote in 2000 or 2004 have no right to say anything now as they did not choose when they had a chance. What everybody can do in 2008 is to vote for whoever they think is the honest and best president for America. And ofcourse, have to live with the choice you made for another 4 yrs.
Good luck !!

she puts the idea out so it will influence the Supers, snipers and/or her deluded followers, then she act like "who, me?" I can't possible be that much of a monster.

Come on girls, this woman lies and lies and lies. Now, she's claiming she won the most voters and all votes count. She's lying to us once again.
She does not have the popular vote,
she agreed MI and FL votes don't count, and tricked the other candidates to not campaign in those states.
And her voters math includes FL/MI and doesn't include the caucuses (which she now says are fake) I thought all counts were suppose to matter. Oh, it's the ones that help this liar's goals.
Not this woman, let's get a decent female.

the thing i don't see is: why is it she seems to think she deserves the presidency, at this point?

her campaign started the whole "hillary or mccain 2008″ crap - why shouldn't she expect the obama supporters to take on the same jealous attitudes? When you consider there are more Obama supporters than Hillary supporters, that doesn't bode well.

Which is another thing: she actually claims the popular vote (if you don't count caucus states), which is absurd. Who's she trying to fool? What's worse: who is actually fooled by this? Lying politicians is as old as politics, but why are people still falling for it?

At this point, she is actually willing (and, in fact, trying) to take the nomination from someone with the majority vote. Does she honestly think that whoever the nominee will be is bound to get the presidency? Does she think we'll all forget that she stole the nomination?

Obama or Nader '08!

I wish people weren’t so dumb. Vote for principles and what the candidate believes in. If you agree with Hillary’s solution on issues, you must recognize Obama’s solutions are not far from hers and vise versa. If your democratic candidate looses the primary than the next best option is the other democratic candidate. Don’t throw your vote away in Nov because you want to be selfish and stubborn because you’re upset the rest of the country didn’t fully agree with you. Be smart. Vote on issues not whose pastor said what, or who said something that was taken out of context, or who has the support from who.

The voters know the truth, and they will never listen to Hillary's lies.

She's toast, and as a women I'm ashamed of her.

Obama will be my next president, period.

Wake up people, the nomination has been this way forever. Sure it is bad, but we're stuck with it for the present. It has no relevence to this election, and won't be changed anyway to suit one candidate.

How despicable of the Obama side to try to create a media frenzy over the JFK remark, she was simply talking about campaigns that went into June, and the side of hope and change, the side that says it wants to unite the country twists it into something ugly and untrue. What a disgrace it is for Obama and his supporters to use words like hope and change. They are about hate and hate only.

It's business as usual., Fear Uncertainty and Doubt (FUD) the republican byline has taken center stage in the Clinton campaign. Their current strategy is to scare people into voting for her instead of rising above her opponent.
She fights on but without the wisdom to pick the right fights to wage. The Clinton campaign uses last ditch efforts from the political pages of the past to try and win a nomination in a new era of politics.
Her campaign's only remaining strategies are to change the rules, alter the math or scare people into voting for her. Telling of a candidate who favors Karl Roves playbook.
Expect the same from Hillary over the next few weeks as the candle reaches the bottom, expect to see more from the bottom

hillary has a tremedous ego, that has already got her plenty of trouble she needs to take a vacation away from politics, she is heading for a terrible landing. she has lost a lot of respect for self, therefore how can any body respect her now. lots of people are feeling angry with her, do your self a favor and drop out now.

You know if Hillary would have dropped out she would have never made that statement.

Once again, Clinton News Network deletes my comment….

Whether she meant anything nefarious or not, Hillary still owes Sen Obama, his family and his supporters an apology for her senseless remarks. But true to her GOP form, she won't even admit she did something wrong, let alone apologize for it.

Gutless SuperDelegates, wherever you are, get a spine and END THIS THING NOW!!!!!!

I don't understand how all these Hillary supporters are concluding the media (or whoever) is forcing Obama on them. He is winning! All they are doing is reporting what is so. I can see that many people are refusing to accept that, but the bottom line is he's winning! I understand that it is disappointing when your team (or candidate) loses, but no matter how many times you say it's not true, winning is winning and losing is losing. Caucuses do count. All the people who voted in caucuses represent others who did not vote. If they wanted something different, they should have gone out and voted for it. This is ridiculous. He has the most votes, the most delegates, the most states won, the most supers. Sure, she should finish the race if she wants to, but she will eventually have to accept the fact that he won.

Yes, the RFK comment MUST have been completely unrelated to Obama, except that… he's the only other one running and the front-runner, and so any comment like "I'm staying in because of what happened to RFK" … is *DIRECTLY RELATED* to Obama.

You're sick if you think ANYONE will buy that it wasn't related.

Heck, you're sick anyway.

I'm not too bothered about her comment, it was probably not intended that way. I am bothered that she's prolonging a failing campaign which is deeply in debt and dividing the party.

A very well calculated comment, but unfortunately, no one will heed to your words, rather what you wished to others will come back to consume you.

I am so shocked to learn from journalists in "Meet the Press" that Hillary actually wants Obama to die.

As a woman, it shocks me and as a mother, it saddens me and as Hillary supporter, it hurts me

Hillary has the right to continue running until a winner is declared, that is never the issue. The problem is she has become extremely negative and vindicative, making it harder for the eventual party nominee to win in November:

- She is pushing women away from voting for a man by raising the gender bias issue
- She is pushing the Michigan and Florida democrats to vote republican if she does not get her way.
- She is increasing her attacks about the party rules, that she was happy with when she thought she was a shoe in. This also will have an impact on whether her supported will vote for the party in November.

HRC is increasingly looking like a sore loser that prefers that the party nominee loses this election so she can run in 2012. There is no loyalty to the party here.

The super delegate need to stop her as soon as possible. The impact of her actions will also be felt directly by some of them as they go through congressional elections.

I don't know where in the hell she went to school. And as for the math!, come on now!, if she's this stupid and tries to bend the rules when she first said she'd uphold them, what kind of president would she be?

I think Hillary's campaign has moved squarely into "pathetic" territory.

With the stories about dodging sniper fire in Bosnia, the revelations that she really wasn't all that anti-NAFTA after all, the various other half-truths and deceptions, and now this, and it all adds up to a desperate also-ran that for whatever reason cannot let go of the nomination in the face of defeat.

She denies the math, changes the rules, and goes back on her initial support of excluding Florida and Michigan because now she thinks it will favor her to include them.

I don't want that kind of person as president. What she is capable of doing, and her continual justification of interpreting things however benefits her, scares me. It should scare this country too. Hillary Clinton is nothing but a female version of Dick Cheney.

Nice to see the Obamabots are out in full force this morning. Whats wrong…something in your heart still telling you your friend Obama may not get the nomination ?

Magic number not reached yet. Getting concerned right ?

Obama did have his name on the Florida ballot you know. Worried ?

Superdelegates can flip sides a hundred times in a day you know. Get the picture ?

Why the rush to end the primary ? Everbody has to catch a train or something ? Don't worry..McCain's going nowhere. Democracy doesn't run on a clock you know.

THE CLINTON SUPPORTERS NEED TO HOLD THEIR CANDIDATE

ACCOUNTABLE FOR HER PAST & PRESENT BEHAVIOR.

THERE ARETO DESCRIBE HER VILE, HATEFUL COMMENTS.

SHE HAS MADE THOSE COMMENTS 3 TIMES. THERE IS NO

DEFENSE FOR IT. EITHER SHE IS THE HATE MONGER WE ALL

KNOW SHE IS, OT SHE THE HATEFUL MONGER WE ALL KNOW

SHE IS & SHE IS STUPID ENOUGH TO SAY SO. TAKE YOUR PICK.

oh, is she is still in the race? hmmmmm, isnt that odd.

The fact that the superdelegates have not ended this makes me very afraid to be african american. It seems that the superdeligates feel the same as Hilary. She is running because she wants to run our country the same way she ran her campaign. Can you image what the international blunders and mis-speakings and lies would do to our standing in the world? With all she's done, why doesn't anyone question HER electibilty?

Yo Obama supporters-would you have been so harsh with Teddy when he challenged a sitting Pres., was 100's of votes behind and took it to the convention floor. I thought not.
So lay off and let the process run its course. The DNC created this problem, not Barack or Hillary.

What most people don't seem to realize is that the vote count is very close between Clinton and Obama. So, I would say that to keep insisting that Clinton drop out or that the Obama nomination is secured is at best unreasonable and at worst is an extremely arrogant position to take.

Remember half of democrats are supporting Clinton and to insult them would be a grave mistake on the part of Obama and his campaign supporters.

THE POWER OF SUGGESTS!!!!!!!

Of course Obama keeps saying Fl/Mi delagates will be seated at the convention, if he is the nominee he automatically gets them. He doesn't want the voters voices to be heard before then or she will get most of them now. This is the reason he is saying she is doing damage in Florida. He is hoping the stupids step up and endorse him before the 31st so the rules committee meeting will be moot. This is so undemocratic coming from the so called uniter.

Keep going Hillary. Obama is running scared.

Obama's campaign's reaction to the innuendos stated by HRC was far more gracious than my initial reaction when I heard it first hand on CNN. Now they the Obama Camp is accused of inflamming the remarks. She changes personas as often as people "hopefully" change their underwear.

Oh yes, re staying the the race Hillary. Are you going to represent Artchaletta to get a recount on his LOSS on American Idol? He at least accepted second place far more gracefully than you ever could and he's sooooooo much more honest.

she is continuing because she just can't believe she is lossing. Well hil you are. Now do us all a favor and end it plz. So the TRUE winner SENATOR OBAMA can get on with the business of campaigning for the president of the USA and send bush/mccain back to arizona. WE WANT CHANGE!!!!!!!!!! FL & MI i'm sure will be seated and counted in some way but it will not be enough to save hil. I admired hil at one time but she has shown her true colors. The changes she wants to make on selecting a nominee is the same way her husband was elected. I'm sure she didn't find anything wrong with the process then. So why now? I'll tell you why, BECAUSE SHE IS LOSSING. So lets see if she will continue her fight to change it after the election. BYE BYE hil.

Fine, let's give Hillary the nomination, and give her a good start aganist McCain with nearly 27 million in debt. How lovely?? This is not about Hillary now. It us about Hillary in 2012 do not you get it????

You know, there is a place for Terry McAuliffe in the entertainment business as a science fiction writer. The Obama campaign took the high road as usual and chose not to attack Mrs. Clinton or inflame the story. Yet McAuliffe gets away with making phony claims about how they intentionally put the statement out on a Friday. Of course, they should have made a statement before she spoke. I really will be glad when she is put on ignore and nobody chooses to write about her anymore.

Vote Obama!

Doesn't it seem mildly ironic that the only people that are supporting hillary are those who are uneducated and under-accomplished? To me, this says that hillary has only succeeded in fooling the dummies.

hey go clinton go we need you all the people in america need you clinton 08

Hilliary Clinton is a foolish idiot.

The latest Gallup poll shows Clinton with a statistically significant five percentage point lead over McCain which Gallup says is "considerably stronger than Obama's 2-point loss to McCain". These numbers have been fairly consistent. I just want a Democrat to win, and I'm getting nervous with these numbers.

What she's accusing the Obama cam? are you serious I was up at the time of Hillary's comments and if anything the ppl that they should accused is the media!!!!!!!! AS A MATTER OF FACT, WHEN THEY INTERVIEW ON OF OBAMA'S CAMPAING SUP. HE DIDN'T EVEN MADE ANY KIND OF BAD STATEMENTS, AS WELL AS OBAMA HE WAS A GENTLEMAN AS ALWAYS.. SO PLEASE HILLARY CAMPAIGN YOU BETTER GET THE FACTS STRAIGHT.. AGAIN AS ALWAYS THEY ARE TRYING TO DIVIDE THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY, THAT'S WHY I CAN'T STAND HILLARY, THERE WAS A TIME I USED TO RESPECT HER BUT NOW I JUST TOTALLY CAN'T STAND HER!! IF SHE THINKS SHE REPRESENTS WOMEN, WELL SHE SHOULD SPEAK FOR HERSELF, US WOMEN DON'T WANT A CANDIDATE THAT DIVIDE OUR DEMOCRATIC PARTY AND SHE'S DOING JUST THAT!!!

OBAMA

The people bad mouthing Hillary is Republicans, not Obama suporters. The Republicans are scared to death that Hillary might pull this out, and they know Mccain can't win against Hillary, and they are right.

Yes We Can

only one who can't is McCan't

Hillary, soldier on!

Except that your refusal to see that you have lost this is tantamount to Mahmoud Ahmadinejad's refusal to accept the Holocaust took place.

You both have something in common, you try to defy common sense and try to put facts in doubt.

You know why people are imprisoned for denying the Holocaust took place, because it would set mankind back to Stone Age if any fact can be disputed as illogically as you are doing now.

So i suppose you know where you belong except, oooops you are a lawyer and would plead insanity so escape Guantanamo Bay!

My God, you defy even a lab rat's reasoning Mr & Mrs Clinton!

Hillary is just wrong. Plain and simple.

Her supporters are just decadant morons who cling to a past that wasn't really that great. Why they support her is anyone's guess, but at least a GOOD majority of Americans dislike her and hate her.

She is wrong for America, she'll ruin this country worse than GWB.

If she steals the nomination from Obama, then McCain will win in November.

Obama is in every outing he's made cynical and disrespectfull. he's is inexperienced and should serve the senate a few more years.

AMERICA remember when you elected an inexperieced guy the last time. YOU GOT BUSH. Wake-up!

SOCIOPATH!

She never will come out and say "I'm sorry". I am still waiting for the apology for the vote for Iraq. There is always an excuse. This comment was just unconscionable, and should be the end of her support and her campaign.

This is not an issue for the Obama people. Barack said he took Hillary at her word and that was the end of it.
Stop with the lies Clinton. You are the one who is making a big deal out of this. Obama always takes the high road while you get down and slime with the worms. You know nothing of honor and pride Hillary. There is no low that is too low for you!

You're on your own Hillary…………….it sucks to be you man, LOL!!!!

Hillary Clinton, The greatest woman in our life time will be our next president.

The Obama camp was more forgiving of Hillary's comment than she has been about anything in the Obama camp. Her comments were NOT OUT OF CONTEXT. We all heard them. She is so arrogant she can't apologize and makes it sound like she is the victim and it is everyone elses fault! This is sociopathic! She won't ever say she is sorry about voting for the war either. She has a grand sense of entitlement we don't need in the White House. And she DID NOT apologize to the party, the voters or Obama. She is a DANGEROUS woman.

Bilary have outstayed their welcome. They are now losing any respect people had and are threatening their legacy. Why doesn't the DNC pull the plug on this pathetic attempt to continue?

The Clinton's involvement in politics hopefully has ended with the farce of a presidential run. Sorry guys, your not going to be the next Kennedy dynasty. I hope they burned enough bridges that New Yorkers will send Hillary packing when she goes for reelection in the senate in 2011. At-least Mitt Romney and Mike Huckabee knew when to get out.

So now Hillary says she can win on merit. Are you kidding me? Before it was Blue States vs. Red States, then it was primary vs caucus, then it was delegates vs super delegates, then it was popular vote and electoral vote..now it's MERIT! Does Hillary really think we are all that stupid to buy this latest spin on why she should stay in the race. LAME! Hillary it makes you seem desparate and pathetic. Also how can your campaign even factor electoral votes? You have to carry a state in the general election to earn them.

Obama 2008/2012

she can run, but she can't hide from the truth of what she is doing. and saying. enough is enough. endorse obama on june 3 and get out and be satisfied with a candidate that is not known for power mongering, self aggrandizement and control at any cost.

besides, there's still 2012, when you can try to make your case again. this time, it aint gonna happen.

Why? Because she just cant believe she lost the nomination! From the outset this was hers to lose and given the state of the economy and the war in Iraq the Democrats should win this election. It was all there for the taking and her campaign just blew it.

National Moment of Remembrance on Memorial Day
(Washington, DC) All National Park Service sites are asked to honor America's fallen heroes by participating in the National Moment of Remembrance on Memorial Day. On May 26, 2008 at 3 p.m., Americans should pause and reflect on the sacrifice of those who have died serving our country.

Thank you!

She is a disgrace! And that husband of hers should keep is loud trap closed because they are both beyonf pathetic…we have had enough of the Clintons.. Go Away!

I'm going to start off by saying I'm an active Obama supporter, and that I was an Obama delegate for my county in Texas.

However, to one previous poster, she did apologize on this issue several times. To another, they've both made mistakes on the trail of not thinking clearly before speaking, they're tired! Give them a break, this remark was obviously not newsworthy, and it's a shame people are so nit-picky. I guess it didn't matter to you when Obama said he was in the 57th state. They're tired, cut a little slack here people, you get the point, so stop reading so much into it.

To another poster, She's gotten 49% support of the entire party, she's been a good politician and competitor. There's no reason you should think she should be kicked out. There are way worse people out there with way worse agendas.

She has every right to stay in till June 3, but I definitely agree that at that time, she should bow out gracefully. I respect her points and reasoning, but I just don't support here approach.

After watching the bullying tactics of Obama supporters at our Texas precinct caucuses and the Senatorial conventions, there is NO way I can support their candidate. They were obviously coached in how to coerce people, and if that's the way the Obama team works, then I want NO part of it. Notice Obama's biggest support came from 'caucus' states… there's a reason for that… coercing & bullying voters.
As a result of what I saw in the caucuses, I personally think the caucus system needs to be totally scraped and just go to strictly a ballot style primary. And we need to get rid of "open" primaries too & make all states adhere to a closed primary for the Democratic primaries.

Viewing this campaign from outside your country, I really do not understand how Hillary Clinton honestly believes that she could be the nominee! She is supposed to be a very bright woman, but seeing and hearing some of the things she says, I wonder where her mind is. All it shows is that she is so so desperate to want to be President that she changes her manner and ideas for what she thinks is popular for the present state she is campaigning in. Also all the things she agree to at the start, like the final number, approving of the Democratic Party's stand re Florida and Michigan she shows how pathetic her campaign is becoming. Obama is the right person for this time in your history.

Count all Michigan and Florida votes or it's Adios to the Democrats in November—Period!!! I won't negotiate on my rights as an American citizen. And that means "all" the votes.

HRC has shown that she cannot run her own campaign effectivley, so why should she be in charge of our country? Her campaign is in debt, yet her supporters think that she should be in charge of the economy??? She seems to think that anyone that dares not to embrace her is sexist, maybe it's just that not everyone of voting age likes her.

I realize that a lot of voters have voted for her, but a lot of voters voted for Barack, too. Or don't those voters matter to her?

Why do Obama supporters make comments that would lead one to believe they were about eight years old?
It's kind of scary.

CNN refuses to allow my comment about Robert Kennedy's death onto this board.

Why not, CNN?

I worked on his campaign hours before he died in Los Angeles.

Why can't we talk about RFK's death? Are we not to even remember the man?

He had as much if not more potential than JFK.

Please, someone show her the door!

My vote is for Hillary even if I have to write it in. Obama will NEVER get my vote. No experience, no voting record, plays the race card when convienent and keeps close company with very questionable people.

Is Hillary citing michigan as an example for third world dictators on how to win at least a primary election. In other words, make sure your name is the only name on the ballot and your opponent's name is not on the ballot and then declare victory saying 'I got the most votes.'

desparate times for desparate people.
