Clinton’s campaign is hoping to score a significant popular vote win in Puerto Rico.

PONCE, Puerto Rico (CNN) – Hillary Clinton held the most raucous rally of her Puerto Rico campaign swing on Monday in front of several hundred members of the Servidores Públicos Unidos union, who shimmied to live music before the event and cheered on the senator with chants of “Si se puede!”

The union operates as an affiliate of the American Federation of State, County and Municipal Employees, which has endorsed Clinton and spent millions on her campaign’s behalf. AFSCME President Gerald McEntee was on hand in Ponce to introduce Clinton, but he spent a good chunk of his speech eliciting boos for Barack Obama.

“Obama was here twice,” McEntee said, painting the Illinois senator as a Johnny-come-lately to the issues affecting Puerto Ricans. “Once to raise money. He was here for two hours, and he left, and he went on vacation. Then he came back this past weekend for two days, then he left again.”

An energetic Clinton, assisted by a translator, delivered a speech similar to others she has made on the island, pledging to offer economic incentives to the island, promising to resolve the issue of Puerto Rico’s status by the end of her first term, and reminding voters that she represents an estimated one million Puerto Ricans in New York.

In the middle of her remarks, as the audience chanted “Si se puede!” — a phrase that's been co-opted by Obama supporters — Clinton injected some Spanish of her own.

“Not only ‘Si se puede!’ Si podemos! We will! We will!,” she shouted, although there was some debate among reporters whether she stumbled over the word “podemos.”

Clinton appeared on the stage with her daughter Chelsea, who did not speak, and Bill Clinton, who campaigned with her throughout the day. The former president said his wife has long been dedicated to Puerto Rican issues.

“She understand you better, she cares more, and she has the best commitment for the future of the people of Puerto Rico,” he said. “Nothing would symbolize her commitment more than this victory” on June 1. The Clinton campaign is hoping for a healthy margin of victory here to bolster their argument that they are winning the popular vote.

I "love" how everyone say: "Oh! I hope Puertorricans are smart" "Oh, I hope Puertorricans are intelligent" Who do you prepotent Americans think you are?!?!?! The last time I checked the concensus outside your shores was that Americans are stupid, ignorants and geocentric. And YES I said GEOCENTRIC.

Stop thinking you are the center of the world. Learn about your "rich" history. Puertorricans do not have any expectations from any of the presidential candidates. Everything will stay the same. The world has lost faith in the US and so have Puertorricans. If Americans are "supposed" to be the saviors of the world. What the hell happened?!?!?!?

Tony   May 27th, 2008 8:52 am ET

I, and many I know, have been doing that since day one. No news to us! Wish these ignorant, apathetic Americans would have caught on earlier.

YAWN!

fred   May 27th, 2008 8:52 am ET

We have a grip Connie…it is Hillary!!

Take it all the way to the convention Hillary!!

We will NOT UNITE behind Obama!!

Hillary or McCain…it is your call DNC!!

christopher   May 27th, 2008 8:52 am ET

Love to love Clintons, are you serious. You love scandals, liars, cheaters. How can you supporter a woman who has so many feminists supporting her. Why again did she stick with bill after he is getting. h…..d in the White House ? Why, because she THOUGHT the she would be a shoe-in to the white house. Votes are counted and the last time I look Obama was leading. DNC along with Billary understook FlA and Michigan would not count.

Again, what is an election ? When all parties are on the ballot. Was Obama on the ballot in Michigan, read my lips NO NO NO. Get over the stupid 3rd grade argument all of you. I cannot wait till June 4 to hear all the whining again and again and again. Obama stole it, no as a man he didn't go NEGATIVE and stood strong again someone who is a panderer.

nate   May 27th, 2008 8:51 am ET

Why is it news that a Clinton crowd boos Obama?

franco   May 27th, 2008 8:50 am ET

The Puerto Rican people have Obama figuered out correctly, and they are in the right to "boo" him. Obama supporters are the hipocrites when it's OK to "Boo" other candidates, you know who you are. Hillary
Clinton is the best PRESIDENTIAL candidate in the last 50 years. She
has the experience and courage to fight the "good ole boys". Anyone
that says she can not be accepted as an honorable person, should
study her history and achievements. She was making achievements
while Obama was hanging out with Jeremiah Wright. Obama is the
biggist "Judas" of them all, along with his supporters. How stupid are
American voters.

jake   May 27th, 2008 8:50 am ET

OK FACT: They do get to vote in the General Election, who said they didn't?? Obama supporters of course, and they are SUPPOSE to be so educated. I know that the Obma team made that statement in the very beginning so that everyone would vote for him, thinking that they were smart. HA HA jokes on you, he pulled another fast one on you. You are also the most vicious people I've ever come across. If the likes of you support him, then MAN , I'M GETTING OUT OF THIS PARTY.

Brian   May 27th, 2008 8:50 am ET

She should have dumped Bill when she had the chance.

Does Purto rico have a baseball team that she has been a life time fan of??

marina   May 27th, 2008 8:50 am ET

My comments have been awaiting moderation for 10 hours!! and all this because I dared to say that the media and DNC have made a circus out of these primaries!!!! It's fine with me–I've learned something more today…….

Kelly   May 27th, 2008 8:49 am ET

Go Hillary!

No Hillary on the ballot = a vote for McCain from Me!

Hillary '08

Judi in the heartland   May 27th, 2008 8:48 am ET

I truly believe that Hillary suporters can't see the forest for the trees. Anyone as deperate as the Clintons,doing the things and saying the things that they are just to get Hillary elected and the two of them back in the Whitehouse. What do you think they would do and say to stay there? Fellow Democrats, WAKE UP!!!!

Wise White Guy   May 27th, 2008 8:48 am ET

And what is the point of you rallying anything when all it means is further dividing of the party when you have already lost? You and your Husband make me sick!

Michael, an independent Canadian   May 27th, 2008 8:48 am ET

All she is doing is dividing the Democrats into a highly polarized party which will not be able to heal itself to win the election. Her winner-take-all approach is going to cost the Democrats and the US an opportunity for real change.

Peter   May 27th, 2008 8:47 am ET

who cares about PR

Peter in PA   May 27th, 2008 8:46 am ET

To the people of Puerto Rico,

If you boo when hearing President Obama's name, he will not allow you to vote in presidential elections. So be good!

Rick, PA   May 27th, 2008 8:45 am ET

Well, as Puerto Rico goes, so goes the Nation!! Ha Ha.

Evelyn Jewell   May 27th, 2008 8:45 am ET

You folks in Puerto Rico, know who is the best qualified candidate to help you, when Hillary, is our next U.S. President.

So vote for Hillary, on June 01, it's very important.

Hillary hasn't got a fair deal from the U.S. TV news media, since the inception of the campaign. However many folks, who have listened to Hillary throughout the campaign, debates etc., know she's the most qualified candidate.

Hillary's winning of the BIG STATES, with high electoral votes, needed to win in November, prove they voted, for the correct nominee.

Hillary's voters will not support Obama, if he's selected as the Democratic nominee.

Obama's endorsees do not make him more qualified than Hillary.

Mc Cain will be our next President, if Obama is the nominee.

Carla   May 27th, 2008 8:44 am ET

Boy, do I thank God that I am not an American. So many of you are so desperate for "change" ( and I don't blame you, good riddance to Bush); that you fall for the totally useless and empty promise of change by Obama!! He has said absolutely nothing in any of his speaches, promises change without saying how!!!
Even before "Super Tuesday", I told people that Obama would win the nomination, not for anything that he does or says but because Americans are not ready to vote for a woman, no matter how much more experience or sound policy she presents. Obama may some day be ready to be president, but not yet. I at least hope that if the contest is between Obama and McCain, you will spare the world another round of republican garbage!

TEXAS   May 27th, 2008 8:44 am ET

If Hillary moves back into the White House she better start talking with Cuba. She will need to get more cigars!!

Mel   May 27th, 2008 8:43 am ET

What this proves, once again, is that Senator Hillary Rodham Clinton fosters a divisive politics, she and her supporters take the low road every time they can. "Yes, they will." This is a failed leader because if you forget that the aim is to strengthen the party and to defeat Senator John McCain then you should not be running as a Democrat; she should join the other narcissist Bob Barr as his running mate. Senator Clinton has been very disappointing, despite her smarts and good policywonk skills. Poorly run campaign, negative attacks, poor judgement, whining about fragile women when she loses and then wearing gloves, shooting guns, drinking whiskey and saying "If you don't like the heat get out of the kitchen" when she loses. From week to week we do not know which Senator Clinton we will get. She should exit gracefully… somehow I doubt it, though.

Cynthia   May 27th, 2008 8:42 am ET

Senator Clinton has been expected to win in PR for some time, but does she have the numbers in the end when all the contests have been completed?

Cathy in MD   May 27th, 2008 8:41 am ET

Another case of Hillary Clinton deluding a vulnerable group of voters to believe that only she understands them, only she can save them, and that the other guy is not to be trusted. And, another example of how she has no intention of uniting the Party (she would have bowed out by now to support the obvious nominee), and wants only to advance her own self-interests (to get back the old house because she thinks she entitled to it).

R1100RT in VA   May 27th, 2008 8:41 am ET

Puerto Rico is a beautiful place with beautiful people.

They DON'T want to be an independent nation.

They want all the privileges and benefits of the USA but they DON'T want to become a state.

They DON'T PAY USA federal taxes.

They CAN'T vote in the USA presidential election.

Why should anybody CARE who Puerto Ricans want for US president???

Lisa   May 27th, 2008 8:39 am ET

Dear all.
Please support the candidate whom you think will do best among those running. Name calling and foul language will not accpmpolish anything positive. It is setting a very bad bad example to all the youngsters who are yet to come of voting age.

LB   May 27th, 2008 8:39 am ET

I wonder if the people of Puerto Rico know that it was during Bill Clinton's presidency that the banking deregulation took place that has given us our current mortgage and crediit crisis? I wonder if they understand that part of the reason our country is in the condition it is in is because of NAFT, GATT, and the WTO. I fought against those policies personally handing out fliers to people on the street precisely because of what it would do to american jbbs and the american worker… I was never against tade but I knew these policies were too imbalanced.
I wish that Senator Obama was willing to talk more about those things.

AnnaLee   May 27th, 2008 8:39 am ET

keep Going Hillary. We need a President like you. You are not a quitter. You are strong and will be a great leader. We love you. Obama has not yet said what is he going to change? We really worried about this. Love you!

Mike   May 27th, 2008 8:37 am ET

If you let a snake roam. It will bit you. Please get this woman off the stage. She's only hurting Obama!!!!!!

Mirta Rodriguez   May 27th, 2008 8:35 am ET

Puerto Ricans are not ignorant, they will vote for the right candidate and that is Hillary Clinton!

COME ON PUERTO RICO, VOTEN POR HILLARY CLINTON!

Carlos   May 27th, 2008 8:35 am ET

To people saying "Clinton or McCain" (or "Obama or McCain":
Clinton and Obama's policies are so close that to say you'd vote for McCain over a Democratic nominee, even if it's not "your" first choice is ignorant.

Kevin, NC   May 27th, 2008 8:35 am ET

Phuck Hillary and Her uneducated racists supporters

Mirta Rodriguez   May 27th, 2008 8:34 am ET

Puerto Ricans are not stupid, therefore, they will vote for the right candidate and that is Hillary Clinton.

Come on Puerto Rico, voten por Hillary!

E75, Orlando, FL   May 27th, 2008 8:32 am ET

I can't understand why there is such venom from some of the posts here regarding John McCain. A Bush clone? Please tell me how? I think McCain has substantial differences rom President Bush, in personality and in policy. Furthermore, McCain has done more than virtually ANY other U.S. Senator to cross the aisle and work with the opposing party. Obama likes to talk about how he has as well, but his record just does not support his exaggerated claims.

We as a nation have a choice — a junior senator with virtually NO experience, bringing NOTHING of substantive value during his term so far — but he just so happens to be a good communicator, and a "likable guy." High on rhetoric — "Change, CHANGE, CHANGE"…I for one am not ready to hand over the keys to the castle to someone who's tenure in politics is slightly longer than mine (and I am NOT a politician), sorry folks. You can be all hopped up on idealism, but he is unqualified, and will ultimately be a huge detriment and dissappointment to this country if he wins.

Then you have Senator Clinton — a member of one of the most well-oiled political machines we've ever seen in this country. But I think that's the problem. I think she's just a power-hungry, career politician. I think she will do and say anything to get elected, and I am sorry, but we need to put an end to this CLINTON dynasty scheme right now.

Senator John McCain — who is the most liberal Republican Presidential candidate we've ever seen. I wish he were more conservative. But, I believe he has the courage to do what is right for this country — the background and know how to best use our armed servicemen and women. And the honesty and integrity lacking from both Democratic candidates. So you can disagree with McCain's positions, fine. But to call him a Bush clone and imply he would be a disaster for this country simply reveals how much of a kool aid drinker some liberal democrats have become, and it's quite sad, really.

victor   May 27th, 2008 8:31 am ET

Incredible how mean spirited people can be. More then half the blogs here have nothing to do with politics, which leads me to believe most people don't understand any of the issues and even less about just how bad a shape the countries in.

And...?   May 27th, 2008 8:30 am ET

She gets booed by her own crowds!!!!!

Dave   May 27th, 2008 8:29 am ET

Hillary stop already, Broomstick One refuses to see she is dragging down the Democratic party. The woman is running on the coat tails of her husband, learn to manage a home and marriage before you bore Americans with your random drivel. It's time for broomstick one to realize she has lost and start supporting the candidates the party appears to want. LET IT GO (Bill)!!

Jose'   May 27th, 2008 8:26 am ET

If you hate poor, hard working people, vote for Obama!!

Obama for the Rich!! '08

rachel   May 27th, 2008 8:26 am ET

POST this CNN. Obama people complain so much. The DNC nor Obama have tried to talk to Hillary they have been too busy since Iowa telling her to get out. They just want their golden boy. Dont blame Hillary because her supporters want their votes counted. Obama knows no shame and just because Hillary is a woman people think she should just tell them to forget about and its okay and vote for obama because he's a democrat forget it. And since Obama claims that he wants the votes counted too why is hillary getting all the blame for peole wanting the votes counted. Rev Al claims that their will be riots in the streets if Obama is denied the nomination. Looks like the only way to get anything done is to hold protests and scream loud so more power to the Hillary supporters, and what do the Obama supporters care right they don't need those votes anyway right?

MizuInOz   May 27th, 2008 8:25 am ET

Secret Letter to Ms. Clinton… you have proven yourself to be a true Republican. You have worked hard for the neocon agenda. The Rome 200 are proud of you. You have invoked every psychological message we have asked you to use upon the frustrated women of America and you have stirred up racial hatred to its greatest fervour since the days of Selma and Montgomery by once again dividing the uneducated and supposed disenfranchised. You have done a great job. We told you that if you signed agreements not to campaign in Florida and Michigan and do so anyway - you would receive votes that you could use later, if this Obama boy was to actually get any where. You can now use that case of disenfranchisement as a way to claim the nomination of the Democratic Party. the precedent has been set by our other lackey George W. when he used the Supreme court to steal the Presidency - as we told him to do. You all are following our orders implicitly. Well done.

Yo, Bill - there's your cover up! And you know it!
And I know this won't get published because CNN is in on it, too.

Liz   May 27th, 2008 8:24 am ET

Hillary is our only hope to help economy. Obama does not know what he's doing. She will beat McCain

Vic   May 27th, 2008 8:23 am ET

Headline said Obama wa booed in Puerto Rico but I saw no mention of that in the actual story. Why post a headline like that?

Steve (Independent)   May 27th, 2008 8:23 am ET

Let it play out, the numbers don't support Sen. Clinton's bid for the nomination.

Kista   May 27th, 2008 8:21 am ET

Go Hillary! You're the only candidate who can handle the job. If Iowa and other early voting states were voting now (after the Rev. Wright issue, after obama's elitist /arrogant attitude, and after other obama negatives were revealed), our country would be in a much better position. It's a good thing the primary is taking so long, obama's real self can't be covered up forever. If Hillary Clinton does not get the democratic nomination I will switch my voter registration from Democrat to Independent. I will NOT vote for obama.

Shirley, Silicon Valley, CA   May 27th, 2008 8:19 am ET

The Clintons have only themselves to be blamed for the failure in their pursue of more Power!

After the last 16 years of the Clintons, we have had enough to the divisiveness of the Clintons. It's the Clinton fatigue, their own blind ambition and their dirty politic destroy them.

Just go away. Enough is enough!

SC Gal   May 27th, 2008 8:18 am ET

Wake up Democrats!

We need to support Hillary Clinton.
Senator Obama is a dream only for the Republican Party.
They want him to be the nominee.
They know that he has no experience, can't close the deal and the states that will take him to the white house are not in his favor.

He is having trouble with so many groups of voters and the Republicans know it.
White Men
Catholics,
Women,
Latinos
Older voters,
Jewish voters,
Swing State Voters
Lunch bucket voters

Florida voters and Michigan voters know that he is not fighting for them so he will lose these states also.

If Obama becomes the nominee we WILL have another four years of
Republicans. Caucus states and many other states have republicans voting for Obama to make sure he is in the race.

The Democratic party and the superdelegates have a decision to make. Are they going to select a Democrat to fight for the American people or are the Republicans going to select the Democratic nominee through vote fraud tactics in caucuses and in primaries where Republicans could vote against their own party. This vote fraud and Bush republican manipulation has made Obama falsely look like a much stronger candidate than he really is.

As much as 30 percent of Obama’s primary and caucus votes are Republicans trying to select the weakest Democratic candidate for McCain to run against. Repuclicans have been gaming the caucuses and open primaries where it’s easier to cheat.

That’s why Obama hasn’t been able to win the “big” state primaries. Even with all the Republican cheating Obama is having it tough. Except for North Carolina where 35 percent is African American and 90 percent of that bloc voted for him. African Americans are only 17 percent of the general population.

Obama has no experience, no foreign affair knowledge, problems with his church's philosopy and ties with radical friends such as William Ayers the Domestic terrorist and Louis Farrakhan the Nation of Islam Leader that is his church's idol.

This is not American Idol. We, as Democrats, need to think who can beat McCain.

African Americans and the poor will be the ones that have the most to loose if McCain gets into the White House.

Clinton is the stronger candidate for the Presidency. She wins the states that will make a Democrat president of the United States.
She has 35 years experience. She has been outspent 2 to 3 times by Obama and he is still not closing the deal on the states Democrats need in the general election.

I am asking that all Democrats think about who can win against McCain. It's not Obama.

Trust me. President Clinton and Senator Clinton try to tell voters, but instead of listening to their truths, the Obama supporters are making a joke about her trying to stay in.

Obama doesn't have a clue what's going on. The Clintons do.

I have seen many elections. Get over Obama and hope he learns from this experience. Support Hillary or the Republicans will win this election. Check the electoral map and McCain has this election in his pocket. Hands down.

percyone   May 27th, 2008 8:18 am ET

Yes Hillary - it is very reasonable for you to ask the Democratic Party to change the rules with 8 seconds left in the 4th quarter.

You want to nominate the candidate with the most popular vote instead of the most delegates (BTW - you did not even get the most popular vote - you think you did because you are using Clintononian math).

You want to count the primaries in Florida and Michigan even though everyone (including YOU) agreed at the beginning of this campaign that those states violated the party rules and would not be counted.

Anything else we should change - how about REAL CHANGE - that is, how about OBAMA 2008 !!!!

NOW DO YOU REALLY THINK THAT THIS SETS AN EXAMPLE OF A CANDIDATE THAT THIS COUNTRY CAN TRUST?? OR IS IT AN EXAMPLE OF SOMEONE WHO IS CLEARLY SELF-SERVING - THAT IS - WHAT IS IN IT FOR ME - AND JUST FOR ME - THE HECK WITH WHAT IS GOOD FOR THE PARTY OR THE COUNTRY??

fred   May 27th, 2008 8:16 am ET

Listen guys, Clinton can do what she wants. This is the democratic process. If you're more interested in a political party having victories, then you would probably want Hillary to drop out. But if you are for the American people having democracy and freedom of speech, then you should let her stay in, because she offers people a choice.

If you're more worried about the democratic party than you are about the American people, then that's sad.

Also, I wanted to comment quickly on the Obama lacking Iraq experience statement by McCain. I know a lot of you posted about how he doesn't need experience, or that his advisers would be able to tell them what he needs to know, or that it shouldn't matter because he opposes the war now.

Let me say something about that. It does matter. If Obama hasn't been on the ground in Iraq since 2006, then he has no idea what has happened there in 2 years, other than by what the media is saying. If Obama is going to be making statements about the conditions in Iraq, or how many people are dying, or about withdrawal, then he should actually go to Iraq to see what progress is being made, what the different troops are actually doing now, etc.

See, the thing is, that we don't just have 100 some thousand troops on the ground who are sitting around waiting to come home. They are engaging in operations, of hunting down Al quaeda, and of helping people over there. Obama needs to see what those people would be quitting if they were to be pulled out at any given time. Would there be a bridge half built? A city half secure? A terrorist that is being tracked down that is close to being caught? You can't just listen to what the media is saying, because the media only reports about when people are killed in Iraq. There is more going on there than that, but Obama won't see that unless he gets over there and talks with the generals, and actually sees what is going on.

D C Silva   May 27th, 2008 8:16 am ET

Obama snuffed the press on his 1st visit to PR (not even talked to it). Then when he realized the strategic need he started brown nosing it.
Obama, No Gana!

MD Democrat   May 27th, 2008 8:14 am ET

I LOVE HILLARY! She is the only one that will get my vote. If she does not when the nomination, I won't vote in the general election.

I am extremely disappointed with the democratic party leadership and am seriously considering changing to an independent. Most of the democratic crop of leaders are just as inconsiderate and reckless as the republicans. They are afraid to play hard ball with the republicans and forget the Presidential Family that has been able to do so, The Clintons. They are amongst the most productive Presidential Family in history. The Clintons are strong and have proven leadership abilities. If Obama is the nominee and is depending on my vote, he is in trouble!

I'd also like to acknowledge that I am black and like many I am not voting for Obama.

Dot   May 27th, 2008 8:14 am ET

Why is this newsworthy? Such a sensationalist headline. Who cares?

Anne Boyle   May 27th, 2008 8:13 am ET

I am a Democrat and an avid Hillary supporter. I agree with "Get a Grip Democrats!" If Hillary does not win, I will be very sad as she is a woman of incredible skill, who has withstood unwarranted attacks and crtiicism ranging from her cleavage to tired old stories about her husband. However, I will vote for Obama if he is the nominee and pray that he has the intelligence and genius to call upon the woman he defeated to help him guide our country. The same applies to Hillary if she should win the nomination. Our challenges are too great to set aside anyone of great talent because of the acrimony and childish behavior of those who support either candidate. I am disgusted by the anger and mean-spirited attacks. What kind of an example are you to our children? Win dirty? Then expect our candidates to have integrity?

Regardless of Bill Clinton's lapses in personal behavior (which other Presidents have done) HAVE WE FORGOTTEN THAT OUR ECONOMY WAS GOOD AND THAT THIS COUNTRY WAS LOVED AROUND THE WORLD DURING BILL CLINTON'S TERM??!!

GROW UP. QUIT YOUR NAME CALLING AND REMEMBER OUR GOAL. The Republican Party has brought us to the brink of economic disaster, a loss of civil rights, political croynism, hard core partisanship and political paralysis. Washington needs new leadership an honest UNITER NOT A DIVIDER. THE LAST PERSON WHO SAID THAT DIDN'T REALLY MEAN IT. iT WAS JUST A SLOGAN.

Blayze Kohime   May 27th, 2008 8:13 am ET

Idiotic democrats (on BOTH sides) handing the election to McCain because of your hatred of a person that is just a little different than your choice. Even Clinton and Obama say they aren't very different than one another! If you're going to be a bigot about it, why even call yourself a Democrat to begin with?

mr.g   May 27th, 2008 8:13 am ET

TO hILLARY HAS THE POPULAR VOTE" WHAT PAPER OR POLES ARE YOU READING EVEN IF YOU INCLUDE FLA. AND MICH SHE DOES NOT HAVE THE VOTE WAKE THE H*LL UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE THAT DISGRUNTLED LADY WILL NOT WIN FORGET ABOUTIT. SHE HAS RUN OUT OF PANTSSUITS AND IT IS OVER, DONE,FINISHED. STAND THE H*LL DOWN HILLARY STAND DOWN PLEASE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

tigerjcs   May 27th, 2008 8:13 am ET

GO HILLARY!
You are not a quitter. You are tough and we will support you all the way!

No Obama for sure.

GB   May 27th, 2008 8:12 am ET

Way to go Obama supporters. Nasty comments when Hillary is popular. I just can't get behind Obama and his nasty supporters if he wins the nomination. Plain and simple.

D C Silva   May 27th, 2008 8:12 am ET

Mrs. Clinton is the most experienced and credible candidate.

We have been asking ourselves if Republicans have catapulted Obama by voting secretly and so they can defeat him easily.

Something similar is happening in PR as some local "populares" voted for Fortuno (the pro-statehood candidate). This was done to avoid having a stealing ex-Governor (Rosello) back on power with his PNP Mafia.

Think of it, McCain has better chances of defeating Obama than Hillary!

Unbelievable   May 27th, 2008 8:10 am ET

This is an example of why people are encouraging sen clinton to get out. It looks bad for them so you have a former President out saying that the "likely" nominee CAN'T win? Since when do democrats behave this way? Polls change from day to day and if Obama is down a couple points after getting pounded 24/7 for 4 months straight is that surprising? As soon as there is a dem nominee the polls will change again.

Kathryn Irby - Metairie, LA   May 27th, 2008 8:10 am ET

Hope she enjoys herself, dancing in the streets! That will be one of her last hoorahs!

Michael Straight Talk   May 27th, 2008 8:06 am ET

I wonder why so many Clinton supports are going against the core things they believe in?:
- Honesty
- Fair play
- NAFTA agreement that includes a win win terms
- Universal Health Care that is afordable
- Balanced budget
- Ending Iraq war more responsibly than how Bush's adm. carelessly got in
- Responsibilty
- Democracy (rules, regulations, votes, etc)
- Good governance and leadership
Hej Folks Sen. Obama has maintained all the above, that is why he is the best candidate and winning fair and square!
If Hillary cannot demonstrate all those values in the primaries, when will she? Ready on day one? What a fake!
Why is it so diffucult to see that Clintons are so manipulative?

Yea Hillary!!!   May 27th, 2008 8:06 am ET

Hillary will win PR by a wide margin. Bill Richardson will leave with his tail between his legs since he cannot help Obama. Hillary will also win South Dakota and Montana!!!! Remember she has the electoral votes needed for the general election. Obama cannot win and the republicans would make him the biggest loser in the history of this country. PR knows who is the best person for the DNC and that is Hillary!!!!!

andrew101   May 27th, 2008 8:05 am ET

Do you Hillary supporters understand what you are doing if you choose McCain over Obama this November. All the things Hillary supports like a woman's right to choose will be made illegal through McCains appointments to the Supreme Court. Think hard what it will really mean to have another 4 years of Republican White House. (and get it out of your head that its Hillary in 2012. this year was her only chance.)

mr.g   May 27th, 2008 8:05 am ET

to NeverObama/sick of Obama I would love to see your faces when Obama takes the Oath of Office. then you can join Hillary in doing shots while dodging sniper fire in the back yard/

That would be a nice ticket McCain-Clinton . I think he should really give it a thought. I wonder would Clinton accept.She is so desperate to be around the white house I am she will take it.

Hillary is for change…………………obama is not.

P. Morrison   May 27th, 2008 8:03 am ET

Have none of you HRC supporters noticed that this woman has the highest negatives of almost (if not the most) any politician in our country?? And you want to send this pandering and lying person to the White House to run our government?? Obviously most of you are women who simply want a female president, regardless of the type person she is. As a 60+ white female I would love to see a "LADY" president, but only if she has an ounce of honesty & integrity. HRC certainly can't meet my requirements. To say you would vote for McCain rather than BO shows you have no concern for yourselves or your daughters. Who is responsible for the Violence Against Women's Act, the bankruptcy bill, which many like to criticize, but put Dead Beat Dads responsible for child support? As an anti-abortion mother, I never the less want a womans' right to choose to remain in our democracy. How many laws can any of you name that were sponsored by Reps. meant to benefit women? Or is it as I think it might be-just "racism"-only you're ashamed to admit it? If it is-you certainly should feel shame!!

Deb   May 27th, 2008 8:02 am ET

How the heck can we be a united democratic party come November when both Hillary and Bill are spewing such venom??? Now he claims there is a cover-up; she hinted at an unfortunate incident happening at a prior primary. What is next for these two??? If she were not in the race, it is my sincere belief we would be beating McCain on all the polls. Instead, a Senator, who claims to only want what is best for our country is ensuring we do not take over the White House. I have never seen such selfishness on the part of two people.
Bill Clinton had the White House…it was just temporary. Please move on Clintons.

Ivar   May 27th, 2008 8:01 am ET

This lady is just plain nuts. Dont we all understand that she is truying to destroy the democratic party? I hope and pray to god that good sense prevails on her soon. What in the hell was she trying to say while making reference to Robert Kennedy. Is she trying to imply some thing? Mrs Clinton…..You have just lost your complete sanity…Gosh This lady makes me sick

In North Carolina   May 27th, 2008 8:01 am ET

I have to agree with you Sally in CA. I don't believe a TRUE Democrat will switch and vote for McCain who will run the country like Bush. I am NOT interested in anything or anyone Bush has endorsed!

Larry B of Boston   May 27th, 2008 8:00 am ET

Obamabots will drag this country down and hand the presidency over to the Republicans. But, McCain in the White House for 4 years is a heck of a lot better - and safer - than letting Obama in the building. I trust John McCain a whole lot more than I trust the anti American Wright disciple and the American hating Michelle —

Senator Clinton #1

Senator McCain #2

O my God………..YOU people i can't believe that the Clinton's go to every primary and just keep using propaganda for their benefit and try to get more and more votes by convincing people that they CARE…….while all they want is another 8 years in the white house…..I think we NEEED CHANGE……which is = !Obama!

And becides i wanna who the polls favor in South Dakota and although it seems like Clinton is favored in Puerto Rico but still i'd like to know how mush is she ahead of him in the polls there???

Robert NYC & Miami   May 27th, 2008 7:57 am ET

I LOVE YOU HILLARY!

PLEASE RUN AS AN INDEPENDENT!

si si puede, OMG now she's down to stealing campaign lingos from Obama. She'll promise ANYTHING to get elected, she'll say ANYTHING to get elected, She'll do ANYTHING to get elected.

Even if it means destroying the democratic party.

Snatiching defeat out of the jaws if victory, Hillary?

YES YOU CAN!

Wow….. and WHO cares about this bit of OLD news?

I mean June 3rd can't come soon enough, so we can finally put the Clintons out of their misery once and for all.

Linda Leake   May 27th, 2008 7:54 am ET

I just want to say as I looked at MSNBC last week and I guess they had a townhall meeting in Puerto Rico a question was asked "why were Puetoricans scared of Obama? & this puertorican woman said and I quote"he has 2 things against hime 1st his name, 2nd his color duh! lady you need to look around in your community and see just how many puertoricans are as black as Obama,and the media didn't catch that statement-now for her to say a racist remark like that it's appaluling, it was an ignorant remark from her and for the tv station not to recornize it they too agreed with her-so let me say this these tv like CNN,MSNBC,HEADLINE NEWS & OTHERS,need to be careful we are watching to see just how much you let go on tv statements-so we know exactly where you are coming from I did not appreciate it at all-very racist statement now I will never visit Puerto Rico again I really and truely did not know this is how they think but I will spend my money else where from now on defintely not in Puerto Rico.This to has racist people in they better be glad they are a part of the U.S.but then to look at the source.

GO SEN. CLINTON GO ALL THE WAY TO CONVENTION !!!!!!!!
YOU ARE SMART, STRONG, INTELIGENT, EXPERIENCED THAT'S
WHAT AMERICA NEEDS NOW.
BUT THOSE OF YOU OBAMA SUPPORTERS WHY YOU ARE SO DESPARATE TO END THIS CAMPAIGN AND FORCING SEN. CLINTON TO END THE RACE, ARE YOU REALY DEMOCRATS?
WHY YOU ARE SO RUDE AND DISRESPECTFUL TOWARD SEN. CLINTONAND PRES. CLINTON OBVIOUSLY YOU FORGOT GOOD CLINTON'S YEARS WHEN EVERYONE HAD A GOOD JOB AND OPPORTUNITIES TO MAKE GOOD LIFE - UNGRATEFUL PEOPLE WHAT TO SAY, SHAME ON YOU ALL.

Kaelinda   May 27th, 2008 7:51 am ET

Democrats, wake up! Do you really want four more years of what we've already suffered through eight years of? Voting for McCain will ensure MORE war, MORE deficit spending, MORE economic problems, MORE fuel crises, and MORE corporate tax breaks. Obama and Clinton may be fighting like cats and dogs now, but let's pull together come November and vote for whomever our party elects as its nominee, even if we're disappointed in who that nominee might be. Give the nominee a chance. If it doesn't work out, we have another chance to change things in 2012. But don't throw everything away by voting for McCain just because your favorite candidate didn't win the nomination. That's like saying you'll take your marbles and go home if you can't make up the rules of the game. Please, WAKE UP!

teachearth   May 27th, 2008 7:48 am ET

This is pretty much after the fact, and unfortunately for the HRC campaign too little too late. Obama rallies and supporters have been booing mention of Hillary for many a rally multiple times.

This is not news worthy, especially coming from the losing campaign.
C'mon CNN, a butterfly flapping its wings in the Alaskan forest, a chihuahua on roller skates, or how about a squirrel that can waterski?
Surely not as cool as the Obama-talkin' parrot…..

Pet tricks by all metrics, give it up HRC save your political future and get your foot out out the mouth of the DNC so we can TRY to salvage ourselves and this planet from the evil grips of Repub-hell.

JP Bless   May 27th, 2008 7:47 am ET

Hillary is no longer in the race to win but to knee-cap Obama. After all these years we finally get to see who the Clintons are deep down.

Jamaal   May 27th, 2008 7:46 am ET

The Only reason she has time there is because she has lost the primay they have maybe 15 delegates this thing is over and now she is trying to divide the party and slander Obama she makes my stomach turn everytime I get on the Internet I am just glad Obama ran this year because if he Didn't this Low women would be our nominee I would not have minded but now I WILL Never Vote For Another Clinton and that means you too Chelsea!

Earl Parent   May 27th, 2008 7:45 am ET

As a democrat i will celebrate November 8th when Obama
loses the election! He is the biggest fraud the democratic party
ever produced!

Michael Straight Talk   May 27th, 2008 7:44 am ET

The only positive thing about this long primaries is that it has given people chance to see the real Bill and Hillary Clinton not masks! Moreover it has show what a talented and gifted leader Sen. Obama is, who not only can bulid and lead a great organisation, but can handle crisis in an admirable way! That the kind of Commander-in-chief USA needs!
Hopefully Hillary will learn that when one is quick to judge others ( like labeling Obama as "Elitist" and "Condecending", it will come back to hunt you! Hillary should own her devilish wishful thinking as her reason for still running and stop blaming others! Honesty has never being Hillary's best quality, why should one believe otherwise?

NOBAMA   May 27th, 2008 7:43 am ET

Hilary is the only choice!! Obama is nothing more than a copy cat full of hot air!! He talks the talk. SHE WALKS THE WALK!

Yaymee   May 27th, 2008 7:43 am ET

I hope that Puerto Rico can see through the Clinton political machine and recognize plain truth - OBAMA is the candidate who will honestly represent our diverse population. If you feel you need to understand him better just visit http://www.barackobama.com.

Hillary has done a great disservice to the Democratic Party by staying in the race and furthering the division within our great Party. I hope she will work as tirelessly in mending the fractures she's created as she's worked in creating them.

As a Barack Obama supporter I'd personally like to welcome the good people of Puerto Rico to join the Obama team in the fight to bring fundamental change to Washington!

Vote Democrat! Obama for President!

Teta   May 27th, 2008 7:43 am ET

If Obama does not have the nomination yet, explain to me why she should give up? No real winner ever gives up. Why is it that we don't want the other voices to be heard. Quite frankly, I feel that the nomination shoud not be given to any candidate until everyone has had their right to be heard. If Obama feels like he truly is the front runner, then he would have allowed the Florida votes to be counted. He is playing his cards to his favor and so is Hillary. What is so wrong with that? And for everyone out there, explain to me why your posts need to be nasty, mean and out right dirty. You can argue your point without having to take such ugly positions. In the end, Democrats will need to rally behind their candidate but until then when the race is Not over, no one should quit. And we should all learn from Hillary's example in our daily lives.

Whatever our goal is in life, we should never, never give up. To succeed, you must persevere and be determined to win - always.

Obama   May 27th, 2008 7:43 am ET

What gets me is she can't win mathmatically, and the morons keep throughing away their votes like she has a chance. How stupid are these people? Preatty stupic since they are following what the Clintons say.

Evelyn   May 27th, 2008 7:42 am ET

I will NOT vote for Obama should he get the nomination. I will do a write in for Hillary or vote for Nader. I'm tired of voting for the lesser of 2 evils. I've done it in the last 2 elections and it's gotten us nowhere. This election I'm voting my conscience. GO HILLARY! IT'S TIME FOR CHANGE - A WOMAN!

Jay   May 27th, 2008 7:42 am ET

Haha. CNN was forced to change the headline of this topic after Obama campaign complained that it doesn't look good. Earlier this topic had a headline something like 'Clinton supporters BOO Obama"!!

fred   May 27th, 2008 7:38 am ET

I am an American Soldier. When Hillary supporters talk about supporting McCain I always think about my buddies that won't be coming home. Please realize the full extent of what you say. Happy Memorial Day

Erik, Bowie MD   May 27th, 2008 7:36 am ET

Yawn.

Wake me up on June 3rd for Obama's victory party.

David   May 27th, 2008 7:36 am ET

Yeah, keep it up Hillary. Make sure that no one supports Obama in the fall. Great strategy!

carolyn   May 27th, 2008 7:36 am ET

Obama can't win in nov. and i don't like people telling me who i should vote for. you angry obama supports are part of the reason why. And I guess you can't say anything about michelle because of O's threat, but at least we don't have to listen to her because she hasn't been in the lime light since.I guess she dicided to stay home.

Peter   May 27th, 2008 7:31 am ET

And Clinton added "yo soy una puta mala."

Mortimer   May 27th, 2008 7:30 am ET

Belle, I went looking on Obama site for his negative 'strategy' you talk about please add link because I think you found that the same way Coulter or Hannity finds information.

All this talk still of elitism. Hillary's big support is the 'hard-working white Americans" that didn't go to college. I see her pandering from the back of a pick-up truck, or telling stories of gram-pa shooting guns with her, while she has always been anti-gun. She just lent her campaign 12 million dollars…ummm yeah she is not one of "us".

I listen to her speeches counting how many times she invokes Bill's name an dhow great a president he was, but the thing is he's name isn't on the ticket this time.

And experience? She's only been a senator a little longer than Obama and she has not one monumental law that bears her name.

Oh and for those who want healthcare why not ask Hillary how much money she got from lobbyists the last time she tried that as first lady?

It's the only thing she tried to do as first lady and she failed.

Yoda   May 27th, 2008 7:29 am ET

Puerto Rico doesn't vote in the General Election and what ever happens here won't change the fact that Obama will be the nominee….no matter how many different ways the Clinton's try to spin it……….

Topo Gigi   May 27th, 2008 7:29 am ET

Obama has nothing original to tell us; creativity is not in his mentality!

c'mon cnn - dare print this!

Obama mama   May 27th, 2008 7:28 am ET

Hillary should be very proud of herself. she has created a vast divide in the democratic party, with her win at all cost tactics. her actions have caused her supporters to veiw obama as the enemy, and caused those of us with a brain, great dispair for the damage she has done. She has the right to stay in the race, but you do it without creating anomosity toward your opponant who in the end is on the same team. If she wins I'll probably vote for Nader, I could never vote for a Republican.

Indiana University College Student   May 27th, 2008 7:28 am ET

As a college student, I am shocked with how selfish Hillary Clinton is. I am obviously a member of the Democratic party and I would hope that we would be able to unite as one so that we do not have another four years of what has gone on under George W. Bush's presidency.

I truly hope that once Hillary is out of the running she can make a public announcement that will hopefully move her supporters and make them swing back to Obama. Otherwise, while all this complaining is going on under our breath, we will have another Republican president of the United States.

I hope that is not what you all want. In the meantime, what is Obama's stance on Israel?

Matt   May 27th, 2008 7:27 am ET

Sick of hearing about that idiot. I hated him since the moment I saw him.

with belle   May 27th, 2008 7:24 am ET

I'm with Belle and if the Obama camp thinks women aren't watching them (and mighty pissed off!) they should try THINKING! We are not buying their bull, their media manipulation and their insiduous tactics. If Obama had experience and more merit to fall back on none of their bullying would be necessary, but as so often, the weak and threatened have to do the mobbing while the capable and proven suffer.

Obama/Axelrod (that is the ticket, isn't it?) have RUINED the democratic party and nearly ensured that a democrat has no chance of winning. Good going. GUYS!

AJ   May 27th, 2008 7:23 am ET

Who cares about the Popular vote? It doesn't count in a primary. Remember it's the precinct votes that determines the delegates, not the whole vote.

Frank, MO   May 27th, 2008 7:22 am ET

Whooo … this woman has no style, no shame, no self respect. Sad to see such a below average woman taking her pity revenge for losing a race.

As a Democrat I am ashamed for that person - the Clintons are a disgrace.

Terry in New York   May 27th, 2008 7:21 am ET

What a bunch of crap. Dangling the politcal bone out there looking for any support that may be left. Who in their right mind wouldn't be able to see through this evil witch? She'll say anything, agree with anything, promise anything if you'll vote for her. How in the world would she be able to even come close to doing the things she promising? No way! I just hope her fellow Senators recognize what she's done and how she's hurt the dems. Maybe even NY will wake up and send her packing when the next Senatorial election comes around.

Walt, Belton,TX   May 27th, 2008 7:19 am ET

Come on people! You know Hillary and Bill aren't quitters, and, just like in every previous defeat, they'll come up with good solid reasons to press on. Like just changing the rules, or the parameters of the election, or what is really important, or what the truth really means, or just lying some more. It was so disappointing when it was a sitting President, but with Hillary it has just become pathetic. Maybe that's the card they're playing now. The-feel-sorry-for-me-and-send-more-money-card………………………..

Sure reminds me of all the empty promises of the Clinton regime and now the Bush regime. Obama has a dream and it is a picture of him as the muslim king of America with the missus on the throne beside him. Only they don't have the throngs of democratic citizens in front of them, instead it is an unending graveyard of lessons learned in the past and ignored.

They forgot that freedom is a privilege for those who choose to defend it. Neither the Obamas nor the Clintons have put their lives on the line for America. They have, instead, lived off the largess of the American taxpayer and the intestinal fortitude of those who were willing to put their lives on the line. John McCain is one of those, a very big one of those………………….

carmen   May 27th, 2008 7:19 am ET

Obama draws 75,000 people and not a negative peep about her. She draws several hundred and all they can do is chant Obama's slogan in Spabish? This campaign is totally bankrupt, in money, ideas and morals. Adios Hillary!

carolflowery   May 27th, 2008 7:17 am ET

Has anyone noticed Obama is the only one that has had an ongoing ad that his campaigne pays for, only him, hmmmm, they are racking up, maybe that has a little to do with this bias reporting hmmmm

Fred Anderson   May 27th, 2008 7:15 am ET

Go Hillary, America needs you now more than ever.

Its been dismaying to read the vitriolic and hateful commentary from the Obama supporters . If the people who post comments in favor of Obama's campaign are a reflection of what Obama is all about then this is a very poor showing for Obama's claim to bring people together and to break down division. If anything , there is more division in the democratic camp then I have seen in a long time.

Yankee Dog   May 27th, 2008 7:15 am ET

Too little too late. PR can't even vote in the general election! Time to go HRC and take BC with you.

People in this country have gone crazy for CHANGE, and are so stupid they don't even ask what the Change will be. They FORGOT the prosperous Clinton years. We know what Clinton can and will do for the country, from experience. Everyone wanted a change and elected Bush, now look at us. People wake up, you may get worse than Bush with your CHANGE man.

hope she would keep some respect for herself before officially she get kick out of the race. Her candidacy as a woman candidate is damaging other ladies' chances for the future. Nobody wants to see another nightmare like this. She is waiting for somebody to be terminated then she get the nomination. That is just disgusting.

elena   May 27th, 2008 6:54 am ET

Dear Obamaites,

Tell me again how crude distortions of Hillary's character help underscore the goal of creating unity or of forging the path to a new kind of politics? Choose your enemies, people!! There are many better enemies out there than Hillary and Bill Clinton. THINK.

Janet in KC   May 27th, 2008 6:46 am ET

I am so tired of the "Division" between Hillary and Obama.

Obama has said really nice things about Hillary.. Trying to unite
Hillary keeps stiring up confusion.. Allowing others to boo him our make degrating statements.
Obama won't debate, he's ahead, why should he!
Hillary gives people reason to doubt Obama, knowing the contest is really over.
Hillary leaves bad debt behind.
Obama pays his bills.
Hillary is running a negative campaign
Obama is running a postiive campaign
Hillary promises, notice I said promise she will come together and unite after the primaries.
Obama is trying to unite NOW.. why wait, we need unity now.

Its time to bring this campaign together for the entire USA.

wbTN   May 27th, 2008 6:46 am ET

It sounds like a lot of Obama supporters do not believe in Freedom.
Obama supporters act just like George W. Bush supporters did when they stood outside the VP home screaming"Get out"! when the election was stolen from Gore.
Look where that got us! So disrespectful to our election process.
Your kinda of change is going to leave us all on the streets begging for some real change to eat and find shelter under a bridge. The supporters are the reason why McCain will wins in the fall. Obama is a joke.

Johnny bad   May 27th, 2008 6:43 am ET

Giving up is the saddest thing a person can do, and people who tell someone to give up, obviously have failed themselves. Let the woman be… as long as its not McCain, who cares who the prez is..

Esther   May 27th, 2008 6:43 am ET

Since now is CLEAR Sen. Obama can't win over Sen. John McCain in November 4, and the he isn't ready to resist the republican machinary in this election.

Event Sen. Obama haven't convince the REAL democrats in the United States, because he speak only caught part of the new voters and the "independents" which are the republicans voters to divide the Democrat party. Sen. Obama NEVER will win the red States, but additional will have difficults to win FL, MI, CA, NY, NJ, MA, RI, PA, OH, AZ, TX, NM, NV, etc… the big blue states belong to Hillary Clinton. His math never will get the 270 or 271 electoral votes in America.

Hillary Clinton is the clear candidate to confront McCain and win easily! Any other wrong pick up will divide the party and make the gift to keep de While House to the Republicans.
Want a see it?

HILLARY CLINTON PRESIDENT 2008-2012!

Barack in 08   May 27th, 2008 6:43 am ET

Nice job Hillary, keep showing the American people that with a snow balls chance in hell that you are going to get the nomination, you continue to campaign. You are in debt how much now? What are your plans to pay the people you owe money to? Let's talk about that! And all you Hillary supporters, is this how she plans on running our country? Run us deeper into debt because of what she selfishly believes in???? Hillary go home and let the Democratic party heal from your viscous lies, then we need to band together as Democrats to make sure we win in November. I don't know about your households financial state, but this one can not survive 4 more years of the republicans…..

Glenn Mascarenhas   May 27th, 2008 6:40 am ET

Its about time this stops, if puerto ricans know what's good for them (which is pretty doubtful), they would be better off with Obama. But since we all know about Puerto Ricans and their "significant" contributions to America, they just might go for Billary.

Joyce in Florida   May 27th, 2008 6:38 am ET

As usual, bunch of Obamabots bashing Hillary Clinton. She has every right to keep running her campaign for the presidency. There are a lot of Clinton supporters out there who are not giving up on her either. So stop the hate mongering against Senator Clinton. She should keep fighting all the way to the convention. Hillary we still love and support you 100% and can't wait to see YOU as our nominee. GO HILLARY 08!!!!!!!!!!!!!

PAS   May 27th, 2008 6:35 am ET

Why is Hillary campaigning so hard? Deleagates don't really count… they can change there mind. Votes don't count…because you can use funny math to get a different total. Rules don't count.. beacuse if you don't like the rules you change the ruels. So why campaign for something you don't belive in?????

meggy   May 27th, 2008 6:33 am ET

IT WILL BE ALL WHITE IN NOVEMBER FOR Mc CAIN IF OBAMA IS THE CANDIDATE…AMERICA IS NOT YET READY FOR OBAMA.

Belinda   May 27th, 2008 6:33 am ET

Obama will be just fine! He will gain lots of votes there… Once he returns.. Hillary has a way of moving into a state when she is trying to gain votes.. Which leaves her in DEBT.. every state she has move into she leaves DEBT..

APS in Hawaii   May 27th, 2008 6:29 am ET

How do so many Obama supporters get their comments printed? Do you what the odds are CNN for the numbers to be this lopsided? Even your moderator is for Obama. Just for once I wish the Democrats would get a grip and realize Obama is too liberal for mainstream America. I am more afraid of a person who votes present and not put out one specific plan during the entire election process. Cheap slogans and throwing dirt might get Obama the nomination, but many MODERATE Democrats are turned off by what is happening with the party. If you elect Obama to be the nominee, you have snatched defeat from victory again. It is so sad the people do not recognize that Rove stated in July 2007 that the GOP would use the open primaries to crossover and vote for Obama to get rid of Hillary before the general election. So sad and yet I will never vote for Obama because of his dirty political tactics and vagueness on the issues. Just once, won't the news media pin him down for one specific plan. Just one would be a nice start. Go Hillary!!!! Either that or I will sned a protest vote for McCain.

Richard in DC   May 27th, 2008 6:26 am ET

I'm hoping and praying that this bickering and fighting and deepening animosity between Clinton and Obama keeps going on and into the convention. The DNC has become a worthless organization for what was once a great and proud party. I hope this rips the DNC and the party into shreds, then perhaps real democrats can get involved and rebuild their party as it once was and should be.

Hillary is a Winner   May 27th, 2008 6:19 am ET

I hope Hillary wins big in Puerto Rico and shows the world how weak Obombus really is. He is fluff and cotton candy. Don't believe his words of change because he doesn't know the meaning of the word.

Hillary is the candidate that has proven she can win and win big like she did in NY, PA, OH, KY and WV.

She also won Florida and Michigan.

I say a good ticket, a winning ticket would be Hillary and Biden for VP

Interesting is how Obama just can't take down his opposing candidate. All that money, nastiness and loads of BS and she's still running strong!

Hillary all the way!!!

It is ludicrous, sad , unfortunate that the clitons can apply the abc of third world politics and still have followers in the USA. It is sad to say, but they know who they're dealing with: uneducated poeple to whom math is just a nightmare, read between the lines cannot cross such mind, brief they 're idiots. may be we should not blam them(the clintons) they just seize the opportunity to delude their followers.
It is shameful when one values more the ego, oneself over all.

It's funny how lies is more believable then the truth. The Devil deceive many, but my faith says not enough to give this nominee to Clinton.

I am thankful my children is past the age for this war although my heart go out to those who serve.

I just viewed a program on the ER for our men and women in the war. All of you who say you will vote for McCain should see it. After watching this if you still claim you will vote for McCain after viewing it. You are some sick heartless puppies to want our men and women to go through this. These men and women don't even know who they are fighting. These people are not walking around in uniform so our troops know who they are and getting pick off daily. We are past the number of people killed on 911. Over 4000 dead and over 27,000 mangled.

This foolishness need to STOP. You can blow this is you wish, but don't blame anybody but yourself. It want be Obama's fault or Clinton's fault.

GET A GRIP DEMOCRATS!

People failed to realize that Hillary has supported Puerto Rico before. Not like Obama that until now didn't even knew were it was.

Hillary went to Puerto Rico in 1998 to get us help after a hurracain. Then she went back in 2001 to help us with Vieques.

She has care about Puertorricans more than what people think.

As a puertorrican in NYC she has my vote. And she has the vote of my family and friends in PR.

Hillary 08-12

This contest is over. There is no way Clinton can win. If you want her to take it to the convention hold your breath. There is no way that Bill and her are going to destroy thier reputations in the party by doing that. Obama only needs 49 more delegates to become the nominee. If you can not accept that now it will be come more clear in the next 10 days.. If you feel you have to leave the party then do what you gotta do. "If you can't stand the heat get out of the kitchen." as Hillary likes to say. John McCain is going to need all the help he can get and the democratic party is going to take back the White House because we have had enough of George Bush and will not accept MCsame

Bob, PA   May 27th, 2008 1:33 am ET

Hillary has become the unwanted house guest that won't leave.

Keith in CA   May 27th, 2008 1:27 am ET

Nikki Willis,
Just a few facts: Obama supporters have not been boasting of their education. Hillary labelled Obama an elitist in an effort to pander to voters and present herself as one of the common folk. Didn't she attend a private school, receive an Ivy League education, and related to people's hardships by telling about not having heat at her family's summer home? Remember in Ohio when she told all those unemployed people the evils of NAFTA without mentioning that she and Bill supported it. How about the Clinton's borderline racist comments spewed from South Carolina to West Virginia? Regarding Reverend Wright, his rants were despicable and inexcusable. That's why Obama denounced and rejected him. Why hasn't Hillary denounced or rejected the West Virginia and Kentucky voters who said they would never vote for a black man? Is she that desperate for votes? Obama supporters don't claim any great educational enlightenment. We just happen to know the definition of hypocracy. And please, do not use the term "caught with his pants down" in any discussion regarding the Clintons. The jokes are too easy.

R.R   May 27th, 2008 1:24 am ET

She promised so many things that poeple should understand that she is just desperetely saying things to win!
Bill knows she can't make it to be the nominee!
They are just dividing the party now!
What a shame! What a sad situation!
I can't believe they are still running!
Maybe they should start preparing chelsea, for a better behavioral campaign! Her mum has been so negative!
I just hope the party will unite behind Barack!
I'm worried they way the clintons are making declarations now: it's not to unite, but to divide! It's really sad! They are pathetic!!!

"Si se puede" means "yes we can".

So now clinton is plagiarizing obama's call? That's laughable.

What's next? Clinton calling for a "change in washington"? was she also called to run for presidency because of the "fierce urgency of now"?

what a loser.

Michael   May 27th, 2008 1:21 am ET

Yes let us run this to the convention and in November hand McCain the White House. I am going to laugh when all you so called Democrats are crying in November when McCain is the President because none of you could get past your short sighted attitudes. It is going to be funny watching all the Clinton and Obama supports blame each other because McCain is President. Don't like what I'm saying, well the truth hurts, Democrats have a chance to unite and take back the White House, it will never happen though. If McCain wins the election because of all this mess then I guess the Democrats get what they deserve, be it good, bad or indifferent. All of this silly back and forth is the main reason Obama or Clinton will lose, Democrats are to short sighted and wrapped up in their own emotions concerning their respective candidate.

L from california   May 27th, 2008 1:21 am ET

i'm tired of hearing all the stupid things that the OBAMA supporter said, this people needs to be educated. if they think obama is the best choice for president why he has not clinch the nomination yet? OBAMA is not ready to be president and all of you obama supporter will have a really bad wakeup call in november. OBAMA will loose….

Omar Khasru   May 27th, 2008 1:20 am ET

Hillary is out to woo America's third world protectorate, Puerto Rico, with scraps. I hope the Puerto Ricans are intelligent enough to reject her condescending remarks and superficial approach, in addition to her 'let them eat cake' attitude.

Dan   May 27th, 2008 1:18 am ET

I love all of the ignorant people saying Hillary should drop out. Obama still has not received the delegates needed to end this thing, and the super delegates could end it today if they wanted. Obviously, they are choosing not to. I wonder why? If Obama is the obvious choice, why don’t the super delegates give him the 50 some odd votes needed?

Hector Ortiz   May 27th, 2008 1:15 am ET

Hillary is going to win big in PR

Chris, Tx   May 27th, 2008 1:15 am ET

Ok…OK…let's all come together and get those idiots out of the white house! Obama or Hillary…take your pick, but please don't vote for another 4 years of what we've had the last 8! PLEASE!!!
I voted for Hillary but would gladly take Obama over McCain any day! A no vote or vote for McCain would be down right crazy!!!

MYA   May 27th, 2008 1:14 am ET

Down with Obama supporters,turncoats and traitors. The country can't exist just with rhetorics and misleading promises. We need somebody like Hillary with proven experience and foresight. I am very certain that Hillary's supporters will switch to McCain if Obama wins the nomination.

Not another Clinton!   May 27th, 2008 1:13 am ET

What happened to my earlier posts? Is "moderation" just a fancy word for censorship? Did I forget to pay at the door?
