DAN – "How cute a hand shake people do not to give each other the flu and now as if the Obamas have invented it, isn't it cute, get real this is nosiating"

What's nauseating is your inability to put together a sentence, have any sort of grammar, or spell.

Just what we need. A Ghetto govornment and president.

We often don't know what to say out of our mouths. However, when the tables turn we don't know what to do.

What's ghetto about a fist bump? What is ghetto anyway? Explain that to me!

I think is is cute. Maybe you should try it.

Okayyyy, now we get to see grown, professional woman doing the ghetto bump! This has been around for ages and now its gonna be the "only" semi handshake to use and if you dont your a racist!!!

Anybody have a house I can rent in Australia????

TO Molly & Others like her, I hope the voters who can't afford gas, health care, lose love ones in this war and high food cost, find you, because if they that DUMB to listen to a person that say she was for Clinton, but not Obama is a person who has prejudice issues and need help. Write Hillary name, but for us who needs financial help, we can’t ask her for any money, Hillary has millions, what do you have? I am a Obama supporters, and yes, if Hillary was the nominee, I would vote for her in a second, she's DEMOCRATES- RIGHT...I AM A DEMOCRATE..................BE true to yourself if not anyone else….

We who are suffering from the Bush administration are getting tired of you voters who think it's all about YOU, when it should be about ALL of US. Some of us voters have suffered enough, we finally have a chance to get help from a demarcated president, and all you can think about is proving your. Instead of being on here trying to get someone to follow your lead, you should be thinking about OTHERS while you cast your VOTE the nominee. When you say you are going to teach the DNC party or Obama a lesson, how, he still will be a Senator, lawyer and more? After November they all (including Hillary) will still be able to AFFORD gas, make ENOUGH MONEY to survive any type of economy woes, outstanding health insurance for entire family, still have their JOBS, continue to have MILLIONS of dollars in their accounts. The only lesson you will teach anyone, including yourself, is that you are a selfish voter.

The fist-bump is old school. You all really need to get with it! Try "my duggie" and get back at me

The ignorance of some people on these CNN comment boards is completely intolerable. I cannot understand why people who were once Hillary Clinton supporters would just suddenly jump ship on the party she is a member of, and ignore her call to action to get behind the other candidate.

It's ridiculous. It's this whole sense of American entitlement that we suffer from collectively; a real childish attitude. "If I can't win the game, I'm taking my ball and going home."

There are even people posting here saying "I'll vote for McCain just because he's NOT Obama. McCain will be terrible, but my voice will be heard." What a bullheaded and stupid thing to say. It's like cutting off your nose to spite your face. Don't vote for one candidate or the other in order to piss people off; vote for somebody because you believe they're the best for the job and have a clear vision of what needs to be accomplished.

Whether McCain or Obama has more experience is really a moot point, in my opinion. NOBODY has "experience" in this job until they are ACTUALLY the President of the United States.

I certainly won't tell you who to vote for – we are all entitled to our opinions – but I WILL say that this nasty left turn over Clinton's supporters going over to McCain's side shows a huge immaturity in the voting public.

Inspiring speech HILLARY! but, I will not vote for Obama in November. I have already changed my party affiliation and YES I am voting for McCain and so is my family. We want a qualified candidate, and not an empty suitcase.

CNN
has no news they are like People magazine..

CNN
does not report facts it reports gossip

CNN
titles are so miselading

CNN
polls are so unreliable and what is reported is not the results

CNN is totally obsessioned with billy boo and hilarious

CNN is clinton national news..

CNN needs to figure out that they are outdated
CNN needs to know that we have a nominee in the Democratic Party
CNN needs to know that we have two people running for presidnet
CNN needs to start reporting on that.

Clinton National News..

The reason they're reporting is that Fox News reported on it and obliquely referred to it as a "terrorist fist bump." Obviously Dianne Feinstein is trying to eliminate any chance of that characterization being seen as remotely valid.

The "fist bump" has unfortunately become The Macarena. It has officially become "dorky".And if I see Obama, Michelle and the rest of Obama's delegates hip hop.....I will puke.

oh yah way to go obama style.
obama 08

I cannot believe that the media is making such a big deal about something so small.

Even crooks and other less desirable people use the so called "fist bump" Why isn't the media making a big deal about them???

Ever since Barack Hussein Obama hit the airway, the media has made him their "Golden Boy". The media slammed Hillary Clinton and praised Obama, what a joke!

Hillary Clinton won the POPULAR VOTE and she deserves to be the nominee instead of Obama

Marty, you are right the fist bump has been going on for years and you can't attribute it to the Obama's, but THEY are going to make it popular now.

The Obama's are a breath of fresh air. From Washington State, we love you Barack and Michelle!!!

NO TO MCINSANE, OLDER WOMEN FOR OBAMA, 08

I just want to take this opportunity to beg all Obama supporters to resist arugering with Hillary's I do know that it can be extremely hard to do, but it really serves no purpose. Many of them will vote for Obama once they have the time to settle down and reason things out, but if they do not then that will be OK too, there is enough of us that have stood by him and millions that have had buyers remorse since voting for Hillary so that number is not as much as they are claiming, plus we must consider the Independents that were not allowed to vote in their state's primaries, then there are thousands of of young people that will becoming of age before Nov. that were not aware that they could have voted in Primaries. Also believe it or not many did not vote in Super Tuesday because they did not know who Obama was and did not believe he would have a chance, many that are sorry that they did not vote. There are those that are in Mi & Fla that will vote for Obama , then let's not forget those Republicans that will be voting for Obama. There will be EX HILLARY SUPPORTERS that WILL VOTE OBAMA, I AM ONE OF THEM!

Hillary supporters are acting like most that are not used to have power and now that they THINK they have it, they want others to beg and sweat over them, I will not, I believe it best to ignore them at this point, allow them time to calm down, but please STOP begging and arguring with them, they will have to reason this out on their own just like the MILLIONS OF US THAT DID!

IT'S TIME TO GET OVER IT MOVE ON, AND GROW UP! BUT FOR GOD'S SAKE SHUT UP ABOUT IT ALREADY! YOU ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES DISAPPOINTED, I READ A COMMENT FROM A 15 YEAR OLD THAT HAS ALREADY REASONED IT OUT AND SOUNDS MORE MATURE THAT MOST GROWN UP IN THESE BLOGS STILL CRYING AND TAKING A TANTUM!

ENOUGH ALREADY! EITHER THESE PEOPLE ARE TOO STUPID TO REASON WITH ANY WAY OR THEY ARE JUST ANGRY AND WILL COME AROUND EITHER WAY IGNORE THEM FOR NOW!

NEW SUPPORTER OF OBAMA!

NO McCAIN!

END THE WAR, BRING OUR TROOPS HOME! HELP OUR ECONOMY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Barack and Godzilla his wife are stupid and so is Dianne and Kay Bailey!!!!

Stupid is, as stupid does!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This story is totally stupid !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

For those of your on the blog making negative comments – its not that serious. Let's take it down a notch. It's been around for a while but some people have never seen it and thought that it was cool.

This is grammar school stupidity. God help us if the grown ups lose control in November.

I looks like something monkeys do at the zoo.

I thought Obama was for change , this is very old!!!! Of course the media will spin it as the second coming, by the way when is he walking on water??????? A McClinton voter.

If you want to vote McCain because you believe he is more qualified, that is your right. But, for those of you who are on the fence, one of the things I hear most about Clinton supporters is they don't think Obama has the experience. Here are two thoughts:

1. If he runs the country HALF as efficiently and effectively as he ran his campaign, we will be more than twice as fortunate.

2. Most people question his experience... well, honestly, Hillary does not have any more. She did have Bill in whom she could consult. That was primaily her "experience." Senator Obama has a large group of brilliant people in many facets of politics, finance, etc, who love working with him and will be there for advice when needed. I feel much better about a group of brilliant advisors helping our President than one single man.

and 3. I bet Obama will select Hillary to work with him in any capacity she desires (VP? whatever). It will be a win/win for all.

Ok, who's gonna jump on the stupid bandwagon and say.... "I TOLD YOU O'BAMA WAS A THUG, NO WAY I'M GONNA VOTE FOR HIM. Well, pity you.I really feel sorry for those so-called supporters who won't back O'bama as Hillary is. Just proves that it wasn't about issues or experience at all ( I don't really buy the experience thing because McCain and his so called experience want 5 more years of HIGH GAS PRICES, HOME FORECLOSURES, MORE UNEMPLOYMENT, HIGH FOOD PRICES, MORE OF OUR TROOPS DYING IN IRAQ). Most people just used the Voting for Hillary to describe there true cold hearted nature, which is a shame.

O'BAMA 2008-2016

BARF!

Give me a break CNN, what kind of story is this.

and furthermore, give me a break obamas – they are supposed to lead our country and they are acting like immature teenagers on stage.

democrat voting for mccain!

MOLLY

MOLLY
YOU ARE A REPUBLICAN SO STOP FOOLING AROUND

CNN,

You are now desperate for viewers.

Nobama, I have been talking to a group of white women that is supporting Barack Obama , Because we love our families and our country and we are bewildered that there are so many who would stay the course as we have for the last eight years and vote for John McCain. This country and the world will not survive under John McCain. All you people had better wake up fast and put your hatred behind you.

to all disgrunteld HRC supporters: who said the Obamas invented it?. Where? please show me?. You're so angry at your candidate losing the primary that you're making fools of yourselves... and don't feel obligated to vote for Obama, I, for starters, would not want to "owe" you anything. Barack's message trascends every race, religion and walk of life. We'll get enough votes in November. You'll see.

Obama is already changing the eletoral landscape with not accepting any money from lobbyists and this is just he beggining. McBush is ground meat already!, he won't stand a chance.

Can we stop acting like this is something unique? I'd be shocked if anybody under the age of 30 did not find the 'analysis' of this thing the most unintentionally hilarious thing they've ever heard/read.

McCain and his supporters BEWARE- CNN will do to McCain what they did to Clinton. Undermine him, write spins that give Obama the glow and McCain the shadow. Phrase headlines soiling McCain's image while steam cleaning Obama's. Wait and see. They will propagandize Obama, run series focusing on race, they will give Obama every unfair advantage. They will use ageism – wait and see. It doesn't matter to me – I will be writing in Clinton's name on the November ballot. But if I had to look at another male and his "first lady" for 4 more years, I'd much rather look & listen to Cindy McCain.

Some of you who commented on this article are just too uptight, lighten up. What's the big deal that two Senators ended their meeting with the "fist bump" gosh.

Do some of you understand what you read?

Or you just comment without ACTUALLY reading the story?

Nowhere in the story did it say that Barack and Michelle started the fist-bump.

What it said was that the two senators did it in apparent reference to the fist-bump Barack and his wife did the day he clinched the nomination.

They do fist-bumps in Obama's neighborhood. I'm not so sure about Feinstein's nor Hutchison's.

Some of you will complain about anything just for the sake of opposition – which is what we need to get away from if this country is going to come together to solve our problems.

The whole point of Obama's Campaign!

Nice gesture, even if it did lot a little awkward.

P.S From the look of some the posts above people will find anything to hate on. Take a deep breath and just relax. All that anger can't be good for your blood pressure.

So why didn't Wolfe act Presidential and call both of them Sweetie and pat them on the butt?

Bayou joe, stop spreading hate and lies! Either you're a democrat or a republican. Decide now!

As a loyal Obama supporter, I don't know why you guys continue talking about this "fist bump". Seriously guys, no one cares.

Welcome to the 21st Century, senators.

I loved this moment between Michelle and Barack. It was so endearing and natural. Awesome to see it catching on! The Fist Bump is going where it's never gone before!!!

This not so new "fist bump" is way older than the Obamas. Give me a break. Here goes another chance for anyone interested in appropriating yet another cultural behavior for the sake of god knows what.

Barack d Michelle again demonstrate leadership on all fronts

Barack 08

Diane Feinstein should not be meddling anyone's business. I thought she said other people had to give them time. She now says Obama should pick her as president. She should start talking to Hillary's supporters to get on board because all those people are going to vote for McCain. Instead of giving Obama advise, she should help get him elected. The more you push, the less she will be on the ticket.

Nothing went wrong with Clinton's campaign. She was sabotaged by her own party. They were enamored with Obama and prefer to lose with him than lose all the newbies he attracted. The problem is that he also brings with him an undesirable element from his Illinois and Kenyan roots. That is why we (Hillary Democrats) will not support him.

Hillary and everyone else can tell us to join in, but we refuse to do it.
our nation is at stake. We will not turn it over to the Marxist in the party.

there are groups of women that i'm talking to that will not support obama.

several of them are moving over to the Green Party candidate Cynthia McKinney in a show of anger at how the democratic party as treated us.

for me, i'll vote mccain.

CNN claims to have the number one blog on the internet but everytime you try to enter something it never shows up, or they close the session without warning. I have tried to post several times to this blog without success, I guess CNN wants only the nasty, negative stuff on their blogs. I wonder if CNN doesn't have their own political agenda.

The fist bump has been going on for years. You can not attribute it to the Obama's.

That was a clear sign of support and encouragement from a young supportive spouse that's not too caught up in what the old schoolers think. This was refreshing to see!

It's a NEW DAY and younger people are not caught up in the mess of pretense, they are who they are, either you deal with it or guess what? Oh well!!!! That's the attitude for the most part by most of them and as long as they are not offensive to anyone I say have at it.

What should they have done, one of those fake long sloppy kisses in pretense done by couples that probably haven't touched each other in years? No! They are a couple that is truly in love and supportive of each other for no greater reason than just.

I love the way he calls her his Rock!
My husband and I just love to see the two of them together!

Obama and Michelle are a great couple and expression of a couple in love! It don't take all the other mess we normally have to seat through watching those others that we know can't hardly stand each other put on for the moment.

Its cute.. Something new! I remember when folks in the 70's slap "5"

never get posted on the "political posts"- they close so quickly, so I'll post this question here:

African Americans said they would stay home if Obama was not given the nomination. No one criticized their decision as vindictive, childish, selfish, cutting off their nose to spite their face, contrary to the issues they support etc etc. No one said: "but they are so similar on the issues… why not support the ideals of your party"

Same for the "new" young DEMS.

But now HRC supporters get attacked for making a similar decision not to support the nominee of the DEM party.

Michelle Obama herself said she would NOT support the democratic nominee if it were HRC. So was she being ignorant, stupid, moronic, selfish, against Roe vs Wade, condemning us to a conservative Supreme court, murdering ourt troops in Iraq, voting against her own interests… etc etc.

Stop with blind one-sided Obama praise and with all the hate for Hillary and her supporters. You are being hypocritical. Criticize your own selves first.

What do you nitpicking nuts who write such incredible articles, have to say about this.????????

This fist bump thing is raelly stupid, When Obama is exposed for the imexperienced, political hack he really is by the 527's etc., nobody will thin it is so cute, but merely contrived like the rest of Obama's life story.

Example Of change, a new, fresh flavor in the white house.

Good! I'm glad it's catching on. I hope the ladies, especially, don't try Dubya's chest bump though.

The "Fist Bump" is sooo Ghetto, if this is what we have to look forward to for 4-8 years, God help us!

Uhhh, ookaayyy, see what I bee sayin!!!!

Sen. Obama is a breath of fresh air. He is down to earth and so for real!

Neutral………….People don't matter to the DNC, money talks, Obambi spent a lot of money buying superdelegates. The Democratic Party should change their name to " PRESIDENT FOR SALE PARTY"
PLEASE change GEAR and MOVE ON,Thank YOU !!!!

FYI
I have a republican neighbor who told me that he comes on these blogs and portray himself as a Hillary supporter that would not vote for Obama just to get real Hillary supporters to follow his lead. He also shared with me that there are many other Republicans that are doing the same. The absolutely love doing it. They stated they know that it is the only way McCain will win. Think about it.

Well it IS sunday.

We are all praying- for God to save America from such drivel.

Fist Bumping.... oH wow....

I can't wait for that rage to blaze across the country.

Who needs to vote on issues, when we can get so caught up in this kind of silly nonsensical crap?

Change has already taken place now. His job is over now.Husain Obama sends a wrong signal to the world and world smiles at this undesired gimmick.. Experience, integrity all matters. speaches any body can make. America is not for rap culture in international politics/relations.change of policy is needed but not at the cost of keeping up national image. Persona & Experience matters a lot to Real Americans..

Hello blogger Portia B.

You don't fool us. Your blog is Pro- Obama. Why pretend neutrality?

1. HRC did not suspend her "concession". She conceded.

2. She suspended her campaign.

3. The party does not select its nominee until the convention in August and so ALL nominees of either party, are presumed nominees until they delegates of their respective party vote at their conventions.

It is amazing how much those don't know of simple gestures of other races and cultures. Feinstein and Hutchinson should stick to stale cold empty hand shakes. It actually looks more authentic.

what is next the "high five"?

grow up

Interesting... not sure how this is news, but ok.

Obama '08!!!

Neutral.............People don't matter to the DNC, money talks, Obambi spent a lot of money buying superdelegates. The Democratic Party should change their name to " PRESIDENT FOR SALE PARTY"
PLEASE change GEAR and MOVE ON,Thank YOU !!!!

Hey Larry P, Cape Cod,

Yes all we lifelong democrats who protested and marched for Civil rights and women's rights and against the war in the 1960s... are "one issue people".

Get real. We have worked to advance equality for ALL Americans, for decades.

Don't think YOU can tell me how to vote my conscience.

I know hate when I see it- I abhor it. I will not vote your candidate in just so that you can continue to use the same divisive tactics of hatred, misinformation and propaganda in the future.

Try accepting other people's choices. Try respecting those who disagree with you. That is an OLD concept we pushed for and struggled for in the in the 1960s.

Okay I not sure what this is supposed to mean

Great to see it catch on. I've lived with many of my friends doing the fist bump.

This is a version of the "Dap"......did it back in the Nam. Waiting to see them slap their arms together and snap their fingers.

I thought it was a great moment, a show of solidarity. Maybe it'll become the Democrats standard greeting of recognition and support.

The "knuckles" have been around for over 2 decades. Have you eggehads been living under rocks or in deep dark caves? If you watched any sporting event during the referenced time, you will see the actual fist bump, or "knuckles" performed as a celebratory gesture among team mates.

To Bobby:

No, The leaders of the DNC and super delegates do NOT have "inalienable" rights to decide an election.

What Country do you think this is?

People have inalienable RIGHTS- to freedoms.

Elected Officials do not have inalienable rights to decide for you.

Obama will be our next President, "fist bumpin'" all the way to the White House

What a nice couple!! Gotta love the Obama's!

Have we all lost ALL semblence of common sense?

Everything is about Obama and his influence.

When will his image appear on every street corner just like all the other infallible supreme leaders?

China, North Korea... anyone?

I'm tired of democracy.

CNN this is just like you- trying to turn EVERYthing into Obama worship. He inspires everyone...

NO he does not.

Sheep follow by nature.

How cute a hand shake people do not to give each other the flu and now as if the Obamas have invented it, isn't it cute, get real this is nosiating

This is really devolving into silliness.

Watch all the sheep emulate the Obamas.

The USA is going down the path of mindless adoration of the supreme leader just like dicatorships.

What happened to independent thought?

I love it!! Go Girls!

Wonderful! Obama"s aready starting to bring people together without fear!

The Obama, bump is a great way to connect and reach across to the other party, and be unified. What if we all tried the BUMP! What a Wonderful World This Could BE!

Dorothy

As a young adult, the fact that the older generations find the fist bump so amusing, in turn amuses me. This deal ain't exactly new.

You are kidding, aren't you? People have been doing this practically forever. It really isn't as if the Obamas invented it. What's next, break dancing? Bobbie socks? Hair bands? Wow! They did a "thumbs up" too! Now that's a move that could really catch on.

I like the Obamas but the media is absolutely stupid over them. Cancel the election, it's completely unnecessary. Bring on the crown and moving vans for the Bushes.

Obama will beat McSame As Bush and then shake his hand too.

If you love war---------------vote McSame
If you don't care about your right of choice--vote McSame
If you love paying high prices for gas-----vote McSame
If you love being in debt to other countries--vote McSame
If you love seeing your health care cost go up-Vote McSame

What else is new! It's the year for the Obamanation!

Go Bam!

Are you kidding me? Come on.

Sooooooooo newsworthy!!! Cant wait to see if the high five ever catches on.

Oh boy....a new uber-cool "gangsta" trend infiltrating Congress and potentially the White House. Just what the country needs. Maybe gang signs being waved throughout the Capitol Building will make all in Congress "cool" with today's youth....

WHERE THE HIGH CALIBER TYPE OF REPORTERS WE USED TO HAVE, CNN IS MORONIC AND PATHETIC.

I can't beleive i actually heard someone say Barack was sexist when he did this with his wife after his speech. What is up with some people that they just can't get a life....probably the same problem that keeps them from getting a man. Oh yeah, Michelle was the one to initiate the fist bump too. But a female can't be a sexist right?

I'm tired of this sexist crap.

Hillary lost because she didn't have the delegates. Obama didn't steal them. He won with from his supporters votes, which were more than Hillary's also. Let's pick up and move on. If you vote for McCain (of all people) over a democrat, then I seriously doubt your were a dem to begin with.

Democrats need to realize they will loose all of their hard work if McCain gets elected.

The fist bump: Is it a "Black Power thing? a "Democrat" thing...a secret handshake of the left, or the unpatriotic?

NO, It's simply a generational expression, that has now been picked up by middle age people ( just watch Howie Mandel on NBC's – Deal or NO Deal)

Why does everything have to be so closely scrutinized?

We're at war, the economy is in the gutter, filling your car with gas has never been more expensive, healthcare and education costs are at an all time high.

Let's concentrate on the issues, on character and matters of substance instead of lapel pins and handshake style.

It's Now Time for Republicans, Democrats and Independents to all just to Get A Grip!

In the African American community, we call that fist bumb "Dap". When we meet our frineds and people we really like, we give each other a little Dap.

MCBUSH SHOULD TRY IT. HE IS TRYING CHANGE AND

EVERYTHING ELSE. WONT HELP HIM, BUT WORTH A TRY.

Obama needs a bump alright - a BIG shoe back to Illinois with his Reverend Wright, William Ayers, and Razko. As a huge supporter of Hillary and one of her very well off and well educated white males I will under no circumstances vote for Obama in NOV. As a life long Democrat I have seen how the party treats people and it makes me want to up-chuck. I have lost all respect for the Democratic Party and will switch over to McCain. The Democratic Party has lost this voter and I know many, many more who feel the exact same way. This entire Primary was a complete joke, and the Big Boys in the Dem. Party caused all the problems. I totally agree with all the bloggers on the last article about Wolfen - stick together Hillary supporters - we will suffer through 4 years with McCain and we will bring Hillary back in 2012. Obama is a complete LOSER and he will lose in Nov. as the Hillary people see right through him, and will not fall for his KOOL-AID........

Sen. Dianne Feinstein,
I would like you to ask Sen. Clinton why she mislead her followers, why she didn't have a score card with her all along and why she didn't take people and journalists who flagged her that it is over just to dissappoint 18million people with a story line that she kept driving to the end.

The OBAMA influence spreads far and wide. I remember watching that live Tuesday night, and thought, isn't that cool.

Gives a whole new meaning to "bumping uglies"

Let's bump with Raoul and Hugo and the Iranian morality squads. Keep on bumping.

Sorry folks I was typing too fast and must have hit the wrong key before I was quite through.

Anyway I wanted to finish by saying, that I will be listening for Hillary to report that her DEBT HAS BEEN PAID OFF IN FULL, thanks to her avid supporters. I will also be monitoring this Blog to see how many of you Hillary supporters Believe and Trust in her, because if you do you will respect her wishes and make sure that the Democrats take back the White House, and make America once again Proud and Free!

I think I'm going to puke...

Funny because I thought this was around long before Barack used it....

HEY IF OUR PREZ THINKS IT'S COOL, SO DO WE.

Just what we need. A Ghetto govornment and president.

It's called a "Pound". You give someone a "Pound" when you have a bonding or a pac with someone. I guess it's always a good way from shaking someone's clamy-sweaty hands. haha

God bless the fist bump! Anyone of any age or race can do it and it is cool. Saw Howard Kurtz end one of his segments with Gloria Borger on Reliable Sources this morning with the fist bump

FIST BUMP RULES!!!!!!!!!!!!

Fist Bump,is okay is joy,it's okay are right on.

thats how u do it ladies

Just another example, albeit trivial, of the "gutterization" of American culture.

White people really look out of place doing that. They need to show some dignity.

OUTSTANDING SPEECH HILLARY!!!

Just one thing - NO WE WON'T!!!!!

Sorry – the MILLIONS of Hillary supporters will NOT vote for obama – he is NOT Qualified – but McCain is!

This is great something fresh! Go girls

This so called fist bump has been going on for years its a black thing where have you people been

That's a good example of how Obama affects people in a natural, positive way.

fist bumps rule!

Whatever happened to a handshake? Please women, act like ladies.

No more Clinton triangulating, misspeaking, and spinning. An honest man, with an honest wife won. The country is much better for it.
— Eric Sims Jr., Boulder, Colorado

The DEMS are like the REPUBLICans toward the Clinton's I noticed. Not only do they do the Lowdown hit below the belt. You guys ran Obama's campaign. Every move he made, CNN and NBC wrote hios script on what he should do it. When he finally made the decision to quit his church for what the priest said, his pastor did the exact same thing. But his pastor was black saying it. The priest was white. I get the difference between what he considers his own saying something then when someone else does. You then ran spin aginst Hillary and Bill, by twisting everthing negative. He was asked a question, he answered the question when he was leaving South Carolina. You nevere told the public who was asking the queztion. Was it a Obama fan doing it on your behalf. In the Real World, it appears it probably was. You NBC and Cnn, You write scripts,repeat it enough times aginst someone you don't like(LIES), you could get a innocent man killed. The Clinton family should realize their so called friends are always looking for I give you one, you give me one.Just like you,NBC Bill and Hillary should become the only Human Beings that are supposed to get permission to do something. FOr your information,THIS IS THE UNITED STATES IF HILLARY OR BILL WANT TO RUN FOR ANY OFFICE THE CAN AND THEY DON'T EVER HAVE TO ASK YOU IF IT'S ALRIGHT.

PAULA

Really

Do you have to be so common

Monkey see, monkey do?

I like Diane Feinstein she was right on point taken on that republican Kay Bailey Hutchison...

Democrates unite...

It's on...

Democrats 08!!!

This isn't news. Please stop reporting on such frivolities.

OMG.......you dogs need to get real!

Everybody is asking what happened to Hillary and her campaign. Well
I might as well ask what happened to Obama after Texas&Ohio Primary when Obama was our Jfk. They made sure they destroyed Obama there after and he became secondary. He had to humble himself and campaign low low key.
Thank to you Hillary and the skywriters you hired. How about the cooperate media that has shown us time and again why we should not trust them.

better than a hand shake, more hygenic! think about the things people do with their hands.

Well, if it was cool, it's not cool NOW!

Yep thats the spirit

Catching on? What, , , , , fist-bumping catching on? Please . . . . . . . . Athletes have been doing this for years. It is probably just a simple way the Obama couple chooses to connect and/or communicate. No big deal.

I hope this is not going to be a distraction from the national and global campaign issues as did the flag pin flop. I still can't believe at the last ABC debate, the host attempted to hammer Barack by tying his patriotism to the wearing of the flag pin. Especially when no one else in the building could be found with a flag pin. Oh, the insanity. Lets stay on the real issues people.

It is vintage Obama. Democrats and republicans coming together to consolidate on values held universally by all americans. Hurrah! Keep the fist bumps coming.
Obama 08!

I love it- something new, something different in the world of politics.

Thank God that liar is gone!!

Looking back, 2004 was an interesting year for the Obama's! I remember it well!

OBAMA 2008!

Gee, how interesting.

Yo Yo Yo...this is my konda Politics

I would love to land a hard-knock 'fist bump" on GDUBYA ugly face!

Come on, this is so silly. Now everyone is an authority over the personal "fist bump" that Sen. Obama and Michele Obama did recently. HOW lame is that?

I mean Jesus, the media is so DESPERATE to come up with something more substantive that this silly display.

What's next, if they do a dance will that be ALL the rave next? I mean, wow....can we say DESPERATE?

The MEDIA is starting to get so desperate in their attempts to garner higher ratings. Sad...

The fist bump as a youthful way to say GOOD JOB ,GOO LUCK ,WAY TO GO, It's what people that are close to reality do to congradulate one another. Their not stuffy or cididy ,Just down to earth real . Like most Americans that are intouch with people on the move . You see it in sports of all kinds and in school at work in the office .Why is this news get real . Why aren't you talking about McCain and the slow motion puppet like dimeaner .Poor guy looks like his ill or something.
The fist bump is just a good old high five ,it's just tight! It needs no major degree we can all to it !!!!!!!

THIS GESTURE HAS BEEN PLAYED OUT IN THE BLACK COMMUNITY EVERY DAY..IT'S NOT SOMETHING NEW OR A FAD

And here comes the Republicans blogging Operation Chaos. NOT THIS TIME!!! lol

THIS IS A RESPONSE TO B. Churchill AND The Truth Hurts

So, what you guys saying is that Democrat voters should close their eyes and follow whatever, whoever the Democratic Party chooses? !!!!????

Talking about the issues, what if I DON'T LIKE OBAMA'S IDEAS AND PLANS? What if I THINK HIS PLANS ARE WEAK AND LOUDSY AND IN THE END WILL NOT FIX ANYTHING? What if I THINK HE'S AN UNDECIDED GUY AND WILL NOT DO A GOOD JOB IN THE WHITE HOUSE? And personally what if I SIMPLY DON'T TRUST THE GUY.

So now, if I have all of these issues with him, but because of the Party, I have to get in line and vote for him? vote for a person I have issues with and don't trust?

Can I just simply have my right to vote for the PRESIDENTIAL CANDIDATE that shares my views and opinions, the one that I trust?

I don't like either McCain or Obama, instead of sitting home and not caring about politics like many many Americans, can I just simply go to the poll and write Hillary in to put my voice into the country's most important election? I know it is a tiny one, but if many many do the same thing, it's gonna be big. Everything has to start with one, more often unusual.

Good for Dianne!
Obama & Feinstein 2008/2012!!

Must we lower our communications standards just because the Obamas have?

It is truly a new day in politics and the world. It's beautiful.

These two senators were amazing in this interview. They showed such a profound knowledge of the issues and interacted in a respectful manner that made me proud to be a woman and sad that great minds such as these were never given a serious chance at the presidency

Obama 08

Millions Of Hillary Supporters Are Now Supporting Obama! I Would Like To Give All Of Them A Fist Bump! To The Clinton Conspiracy Believers. . . . No Fist Bump For You!

Because we still have evil people in our sociality, I think that CNN is making a big mistake showing the"Something is happening here" series. Because I feel that it could excite Hate groups. But this is just my opinon.

For those that are not with it: the Obama fist bump was a way of showing how Non elitist they truly are. The fist bump has been around for years. Those that are "elitist" are only now becoming aware of it.

As an observer of US politics since 1960, I am amazed at the abusive language used by Obama supporters against Sen Clinton and anyione who dares to back the. Just because he has sneaked past using the caucus tactics in small states, does not make him the saviour of the world. If you hate the Clinton's so much why dont you ask your candidate to ask them tio go to hell. and see what the consequences.

You want their endorsement, you want them to work for byour cause and a man who espouses working across the aisle does not have the grace to bring on board the candidate who got more popular votes than him. You can ride high in this victory, but it may come back to bite you. If you are such a clever politician, keep her close and on board ( on the ticket ). Others might bring a state but she can bring a 5% swing across several states which could clinch it finally.

I dont really think Sen Obama will have her on his ticket and history will judge him wrongly.

Watching Feinstein try to convince Americans that Obama does not have a big ego was nauseating. Btw, why did she feel the need to even bring up the issue of whether or not he has a big ego? He's an arrogant weasel, Diane, who sleazed away with our party's nomination while you stood there and said nothing about the way he and the media treated a truly qualified candidate who has an infinitely better chance of winning in November than does BO.

Go PUMA PAC

Good grief the media must be lacking something to talk about .
It is sad there isnt any important news happening .

This is just like the media to get on the Obama bandwagon. When Bush did a chest bump he was criticised and I am sure Bush would be again if he did the fist bump.

This is not the act of a president.

You 2 women are sick–what is with this "fist pump"? like my 3 teenagers would say–stop trying to impress the youth with trying to be cool–it won't happen–let the 2 Obamas make all of the "hand gestures" that they are both good at. Please act your age and show some respect to the rest of the population. You can also"can" that "yes we can" scream–it's juvenile and ridiculous. Not Presidential.

It is good to see wolf move on and realize this is not about Hillary, five days later. What is,is. A win is a win as Hillary once said. Enough said, now it is time to move on and help Obama win GE.

Give me a break!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! It looks stupid.

This is a prime example of leadership, when something as trivial as a fist bumb is applauded and copied by democratic and republican leaders. Do you really think that john Mcsaime would do anything that was cool and people would copy and talk about with joy. not.

I'm still laughing at Right wing media pundits, trying to tie an AA greeting dating back to the 60's to modern middle eastern extremist. They really show that they are willing to say virtually anything.. hoping someone is ignorant enough to believe them.

A little dap just jumped the shark on this one...

That shows how obamaniac everyone is going from obama flakes in obama town of Japan to senator beer in Kenya and now obama fist between a democrat and a republican. Only the brand name 'obama' can unify the parties in the US and communities around the world. But to think of it, this fist bump between Barack and Michelle reminds me one thing: their youthful mindedness and friendship. This is what the world needs now at this moment and this time.

Make them stop! How disgusting! We can't have decent people sharing friendly greetings or intimate gestures in PUBLIC! And TOUCHING, no less – like savages! Next, they'll be wanting to firmly clasp the palms of their naked, sweaty palms! With strangers, even!

Ha, Ha Ha, Ha! I love it!

The new Camelot is here, folks – it's growing like lightning, and it's bronze!

I love it! Barak around the clock!

Even the neocons will come around!

I don't think this shows much respect when done by women, it is a "black rapper" kind of a thing, and belongs to men.....com'on girls, just because Hill tried to make you all think that "anything goes if you win" kind of attitude, let's don't go the "butch route" that so many of her women followed, we are women and we do not have to try to "cross the line" or act like "locker-room boys" to prove we are capable of a good job...lets be lady's and have some grace.

Not much GRACE was shown from the women involved in this last race, but we can bring it back and let the men know what we really stand for, they will respect us more, not look at us as "pretenders or wanna be les-girls".....you know what I mean....

Thanks, the real feminine attributes need to be preserved for all time, we do not have to stoop to those tactics!

now that is so american,WOW

that is awesome!

I thought the "dap" was cute. Barack and Michelle seem to be very close. It was a personal "conversation" between the two of them, and it went over very well. As an African American, we sometimes share very personal touchy/feely moments with our partners also. Take it for what it was, a private, personal moment and jester between Barack and Michelle. Maybe other African American men will feel more comfortable hugging, touching, feeling their "partners" in public now that they have seen Barack do it??? I'm sure my sisters would welcome these "personal jesters" from their mates.....

lol!

Oh great. That's all we need...

Obama was elected not selected. In her announcment Clinton said she supports thoses who work hard and play by the rules. Well MI and FL broke the rules. Tell me Clintonites what sanction do you think they should have gotten? Then Hillie wanted the super dels to support her. Now that they did not her supporters are saying it is the popular vote that counts. Well never bring a popular vote to a delegate fight. Since 1776 it has been the delegates that count in the USA. Sure there has been sexist comments made about her. But did she ever have a state not vote for her because she is a women? Obama had to deal with PA, WV, and KY all not vote for him because he is black. There are more people who did *not* vote for him because he *is* black then who voted for him because he is black.

Hahahahahaha this is hilarious....

I Bet Mccain Would Break His Wrist If He Got A Fist Bump!

My god...this fist bump thing is getting out of control. We've been giving dap for years.

I think the bump is stupid, let it go......

I Would Like To Give A Fist Bump To All Of My Fellow Obama Supporters! Hillary Supporters Who Now Back Obama Can Also Get A Fist Bump! The Clinton Conspiracy Supporters, . . . No Fist Bump For You!

I'm sick of Obama and his BS ways already. How will people stand 4 years of him?

This just speaks to the racial divide in our country. Black folks have been "fist bumping" each other forever. I have to believe that the members of the media are either, ancient and don't pay attention to their kids, or they have absolutely no black or latino friends at all.

However, as usual, when doing something you're not familiar with, these senators have it wrong. You do not dap your opponent, you dap someone to show strength and solidarity with them.

LOL!

its a great way to keep from spreading germs and viruses.

Was very cute the "fist bump" between Senator Obama and his wife Michelle. That's what we need in the White House !!! A real family !!! We can see how much love they share !!! Go OBAMA !!!

So what... are we supposed to vote for Bailey or Feinstein for president now?

Slow news day?

WE NOW OFFICIALLY HAVE THE SUPPORT OF MILLIONS OF CLINTON SUPPORTERS!

You make my stomach turn.

The DNC failed its constituents’ miserably in falling to acknowledge every vote cast and counted in Michigan and Florida..period. The principals for which the party was founded are simple…one voice..one vote. As far as the “rules” pertaining to the date of which a state is suppose to hold its primary-I say—to hell with these arbitrary rules put in place by political party elitists-they undermine the founding principles of the party by disenfranchising those who showed up to vote. The voters in these states had no voice in these decisions, but they went to the polls anyway, and they voted, even if they voted “uncommitted”. And this nonsense about how these votes would not count because they broke the rules, thus possible encouraging these voters to stay home—I say ridiculous. If you are a registered voter and as so, those that did not go to the polls—well I guess they did not take their privilege to vote seriously.
By disenfranchising those that did vote, the DNC intentionally disenfranchised and abandoned the strongest candidate to head the ticket- Hillary. She with her tremendous strength, knowledge and courage was tossed aside for an ill-qualified community organizer with two years of Senate experience. Let me make clear, I do not hate Obama however I firmly believe him to be the weakest candidate to head the ticket. Those same party leaders did not have the courage to realize this and they will pay a price for their stupidity. I have heard those same party leaders repeatedly say, well gee, what would we say to the African American voter, and all those newly registered college folk who backed Obama-that would be a against our principals to “take” the nomination away from him, I say BULL. To the 92% of the African Americans and those college folk who apparently voted overwhelmingly for Obama, I ask…. where have you been all these years when the party needed your votes in prior elections--then you stayed home, or failed to register and vote.
I have been a loyal supporter of the party my entire adult life-no more. You have shown me time and time again that you are gutless and have no clear clue how to win elections. You lack the vision and the wisdom to do anything other than pat your own pockets and run from the truth-for shame.
I do not speak for all Hillary supporters, though I do hope I speak for many of them when I say to the party…. you have failed us-you have failed Hillary, and you will once again fail to win the White House, and because of your failure-the party WILL pay a high price. I watched and listen to Hillary ask her supporters to now throw their support to Obama, for the sake of the party. Hillary is a loyalist to the party-why, I’m not sure-because I am no longer so. Well with the deepest respect for Hillary, I will not, with my vote, allow the “rape” of her candidacy to continue. Come Nov I will exercise my right and vote for McCain-two can play the same game. I respect Hillary tremendously, however the party and the process did her wrong and this cannot stand. YES THIS WILL BE A PROTEST VOTE, a vote against the DNC-you need to clean your act up and remember your core constituents, because “Yes We Can” make a difference.
I am not afraid of McCain, he does not represent 4 more years of Bush-no one could possibly be that stupid. I believe him to be a man of honor who will do his best for this country and its people that he cares deeply for, and for that reason I will place my hope with him. I’d rather hedge my bet on a man of honor than to vote for the voice of chatter. who promises everything to everyone. I say go back to Chicago, drink your green tea and eat your arugula, and O by the way, clean up the mess in your own back yard. And one last thing-no I am not “bitter”-disenfranchised and very angry at the party—yes.

Spread the 'pound'....

LETS ALL START DOING THE BUMP NOW.

Another example of the unstoppable, contagious enthusiasm Obama is bringing to America. It's funny to see the country divided by the haters and the hopeful, the positive and the negative.

Just like with Hillary–who tried to spread fear, Obama will prove that light overcomes dark, hope overcomes fear.

CNN

You seem to be fixated on the Obamas. Who is it at CNN that is driving this? It's as if McCain did not exist. Even for an obviously biased media I think you are going too far. Next you'll be following them into the bathroom. Its really gone too far and you ought to do something about this before you have no credibilty left at all.

And this is news? Where is Walter Cronkite when you need him?

Sweet!!!

"ooooh.... LOOK! I'm black too!!!" Morons.

hey I don't want to appear prudish but isn't that something only black people do?

Give me a break

Oh, please. A slow news day, i guess. CNN, you simply have no shame!
