CNN

CNN why did you End the comments concerning Rick Warren/Evangelist group with John McCain. The media again during another election makes them appear to be GOD, the One that has the right to Judges anyone of flesh, the One who has the key to God's Golden Gate. I don't see why people who closet that probably have stones as big as mountains can judge which political candidate is better for God instead of God sheeps, looking at the people in the crowd, they to are of flesh. How did the Evangelist group skip over the verse in the Bible that states…..THY SHOULD NOT KILL)……Sin is Sin – not because people of flesh say it is…………Didn't McCain vote YES for the WAR?…

Last election it was us the religions groups that supported our present President, whom by the way left religion at the White House front door. I see were doing it again, FORGETTING about the SEVERE MAIN ISSUES that 98% of us suffer day after day (with our prayers). This election is ABOUT showing GOD that he is the power to judge, not man. We should focus more on our day to day lives with GOD when he blesses everyone (sinners and non sinners) with jobs, affordable healthcare and unconditional love for human lives. I pray that all religious people remember it’s bigger then acting as if religion is important until after the election This was the subject until the election was over and we had a President that put us into a war.

As far as McCain comment about his first wife, he had to say that, it was a Evangelist forum and it’s stated on ever blog…..

I read that Malcolm X once said that "the white man is the master of tricknology". After what I saw last week what Hillary said and what she is trying to pull on Obama at the convention and after seeing McSame's performance at the so called Faith Forum then finding out that Rick Warren LIED about where McSame was during the time that Obama was being questioned, I think that Malcolm told the truth.
The Faith Forum was a SHAM and just like the rest of the MEGA MILLION church leaders Rick is a trick. He will fall just like the rest of them because he is using God to play games with Gods people and line his pockets with MONEY.
The truth is in OBAMA. ONLY

George Washington established the two term limit as a bulwark against a monarchy. I've been uneasy about Senator Clinton's ( and Bill's) behavior, as well. It's particularly troubling because of all the Clintons' baggage. I agree with Governor Richardson that the Clintons should get over this. Let's hope the Clintons won't be "party" poopers. Senator Obama will be a great President, and he will enter office to deal with some of the worst problems concerning our country in history.

Sounds like a pretty good plan...she won't get that many delegates...but it will look great when she gives them to Obama, and declares official unity.

I question his initial thinking about Hillary 's name being placed in nomination at the convention. Not sure what he was afraid of there, at first. Glad he came around.

Also glad he came around when he saw the campaign becoming negative. Smart move. Especially the historic, widely booed "xerox" comment by HRC at a live debate.

I agree with his response to Carville. "Clinging to the throne" may have been a little harsh, but not as harsh as him being called Judas. That alone may justify his response, as the "Judas" accusation carries the implication that Hillary is "Jesus".

Well, who cares. Water under the bridge now. The issue now is for Dems to take this general election, being handed to them on a platter. Don't screw it up over juvenile bitterness, dems. This election is about health care, energy independence, the environment, and resolving the Iraq situation, to name a few. So much at stake this election.

YOU were a littlle uneasy? It will probably take a stake to the heart or silver bullet to get rid of this woman. I think she is hoping that somehow she will become the nominee. If she steals this from Mr. Obama, I will just simply stay home. I will not be an enabler. I was on her side until she started that 'hardworking, white nonsense' as though the rest of us don't work hard to make it. And she managed to 'tear up' which won her a primary. Sweetie, if you are going to join the boys club, you need to grow a pair.

This guys is unbelievable. Not only does he back stab, he comes out right in the front to check if the dagger has pierced all the way through.

What a vermin.

I pray that Richardson is correct on his theory that Hillary will hand over her delegates..I still will not believe that until the convention is over!!! I do not have the faith in the Clinton's that Richardson does..I pray he is on the mark with this one.

John McCain..specifically ask last night what about the Supreme Court Justices question...if he was in a cone of silence..how did he know about the supreme court justices???????

Governor Richardson must have been treated like a subject in the Clinton dynasty.

Richardson: the party is united.

Forcibly united, one could say.

I understand what you are saying.

CNN, if Rick sanchez knew last night that McCain had arrived 30 minutes late for the forum, you all had to know also, but you may want to "dodge" this statement.

We are all worried by The Clintons; first bully into the Convention, then demand primary speaking time, then insist on husband Bill with his own timeline the following night, then amend the Convention platform to include language to "recognize" and give "respect" to Hillary and her voters and then, the final insult – a roll call vote with the 'backdoor' attempt to nominate Hillary Clinton as the Democratic Nominee....

How does Obambi expect to take on the pressing problems of the nation should he become POTUS which will required a lot of backbone and spine, if Obambi is more like a jellyfish now, bowing to the wished of the King & Queen of Clintonland....

Traitor you should be concerned! This whole thing is a joke on the electorate....Obama has been crowned with the nomination and you think we are stupid enough to not see that this whole thing is rigged! Obama never allowed Hillary's name to be placed in nomination until he had "guaranteed" his unanimous vote. November will show how your attempt at dictatorship works. Vote ANYBODY else but Obama!!!

I'm also waiting to see if this move unifies the Democratic party. They'd better get it right. Fanatic Clinton supporters need to understand that if the Republicans win this race she will not be favored in 2012. Just as her "18 million" voters need to be heard, if the Republicans win Obama's "18.5 million voters" will blame her and she will forever be seen as a divisive force. I would have voted for her had she won the primary, but now I feel as though some of her voters are more about her than about America.

And we were a bit uneasy about your backstabbing ways and womanizing... why you never get any traction anytime you run. Richardson is an egomaniac who needs to stop detracting from Obama.

You know CNN The Huffington Post is addressing this violation of the cone of silence and not only that, but their also addressing McCain's plagarism.

Will Richarson cast his vote for Hilary as he said he would when she won New Mexico, He would be forced to vote the way the state vote was, or would be labeled as a trader to his own state.

I was driving into downtown Los Angeles. I watched the first 15' with Mr. Obama, then drove for the remainder. I didn't miss anything except the picture. The forum with Rick Warren was broadcast on KNX 1070 am radio live. It is disingenuous for Mr. McCain's spokesperson simply to say that there was no TV, as radio was certainly available to Mr. McCain. Ask him about that please.

Well, thanks, Bill R – you helped to make the candidate –
Clinton – with the most knowledge and experience lose the democratic primary. The Clintons were your claim to fame. I view you as a Judas....What did you sell your soul for??

If John win we deserve to pay 12.00 a gallon for gas. We will be such idiots. If you think GW was bad, wait until John gets in the WH.

"CNN Political Analyst James Carville, who has long and deep ties to both Clintons, even likened Richardson’s endorsement to Judas’s betrayal of Christ."

WQW ! To make a comparison like that borders blasphemy.

The Sickleback Church will not tell me who to vote for. These people are in a bubble and are clueless as to what the rest of America is going through.

No to Warren, McLame–Warren's puppet, and George Bush.

Obama 08

John McLame definitly heard the questions in advance. There is no way he didn't listen to the question on the radio. His answers were too prepared. Also Rick Warren did not ask the questions the same way, and he asked John more questions. It was a farce, and Rick Warren is a fool if he think he's going to use these Rovian tactics to tell me who to vote for.

Obama 08

I can;t believe that Hillary Rodham Clinton will be fundraising with
Bill Richardson (JUDAS)...after all the things that he said about her...
and rushing her to leave the campaign.....
All the latinos who supported Hillary are against him...and I don't know how he is going to help Barack Hussein Obama.
SHAME ON ALL OF YOU!!!!!!

'Dynasty'? and 'Clinging to the throne'? Doesn't this idiot know that in America you get VOTED IN? And its a FREE VOTE? Just like he made his choice,everyone else can do the same.So stop lying about how the Clintons became so successful in politics.They got VOTED IN by the same voters who VOTED YOU OUT!

Bill R. Needs to go back into his cave and stay there....

Richardson needs to shut up!!!!!!!!!!!

well, Hopefully this will all be over with after that, thank god. Clinton was HORRIBLE.

No Way! – Hillary has to pledge her delegates to BO.....This is the first I've heard of this. I hope she didn't put that in writing. Lets see what the roll call brings....I'm praying for a Hillary upset at the convention...in overwhelming numbers... then maybe BO will just FINALLY go away!

Sure hope they have a written agreement that she will turn over her pledged delegates. Like Richardson, I'm uneasy as the Clinton's have shown anything to win.

Rick Warren is a hypocrite! He stated that McCain was in a cone of
silence and McCain was in a hotel room watching the event. This
forum was a farce. Give me a break! How did McCain know about
the question on the Supreme Court Judges before Warren asked
about them." A Purpose Driven Lie."

We should all be cautious and apprehensive when it comes to the Clintons. After all, this is the dual that can't seem to digest the word "loss." Bill is still pouting, and Hiliary until recently seemed to be permanently in seclusion. We can only hope.

Well... I can sleep at night now knowing that Mr. Bill 'Judas' Richardson feels at ease with Obama's decision to throw bread crumbs to Hillary and her supporters by 'allowing' her to have a roll call. What a load of you know what.

I love Bill Richardson; he tells it like he sees it!

Obama's a fool to trust Clinton. Either of them. The Clinton's have only one credo: by any means necessary. Hillary's going to Peal Harbor Barack at the Convention. She's not going to endorse him. She's going to try and supplant him in a coup. It's going to wreck the Democratic Party and put John McCain in the White House, but it's going to be great television. Primary Colors 2 might be just as good as the original. Stay tuned America!

Just stating the facts here. Rick Warren is such a bias journalist and is definitely in the tank. Since the other ticker doesn't have comments I am commenting here. He keeps on pushing the rev that moderated the debate yesteraday that Mccain was not in the cone of silence but when the rev said obama had 1 question ahead of time.... he just flats out ignores that. And all day the ticker on the front CNN page was highlightint the morality question with Mccain but failing to put on the front page that Obama got owned on the debate and that Mccain was straightforward, answered the questions instead of dancing around it, and really connected with the audience.

Can we get some fairness in here CNN?

The is such a farce.

The efforts of the establishment elitist defeatists to hook the Clinton
clan to our next administration continues as a royalist fantasy as
oil enslaved colonists rise in progressive revolution. The failure
of the Clinton administration to respond after the first WTC attack
and their oblivious response to alert CIA recommendations establishes a timeless defense concept of not re-posting guards who fell asleep on duty. Democrats who voted for the war, continued to fund corrupt war contractors with overpayments and blocked the American people's option to consider impeachment of the multiple felon Dick Cheney are a tremendous liability to our future success. We can fully support womens' Pro Choice effort without Hillary as
pretender to the throne or Nancy the mouse minister. America
moves forward, sideswiping the don't ask don't tell hipocrisy and dark, adulterous Clinton path. The belief that marriage is intended
to be only between a man and a hundred women does not fit in this year's debate. Fortunately our internet educated young people are not as gullible as media manipulated dads and moms and will
ultimately seek politicians who are good role models as well as
ingenious policy makers.

I'm with the Governor. I wish he could be Vice President. Too bad racial politics prevents Obama from picking him. He's perfect for the job.

I can't believe it – your a traitor and will always be known as a "Judas."

You idiot, you don't get it do you. The Dem party is not united.
P. arty U. nited M. y A. ss. Not Hillary – then – John.

Who cares, this guy stabbed Clinton in the back. Obama is going to get crushed in November. Not sure why you all selected him as your nominee...quite sad actually. If he wins, I'll move to a tax free state to offset the increases that he is going to impose. Suckers...

I'm so pleased Bill Richardson has a measure of comfort. Believe me, I couldn't sleep nights if I didn't feel that Bill was totally in his comfort zone.

RICHARDSON..... WHO CARES HOW YOU FEEL ABOUT THE ROLL CALL. YOU HAVE A LOT OF NERVE SAYING YOU VOTED FOR BO BECAUSE HILLARY WENT NEGATIVE... WHAT HYPOCRISY. YOU AND YOUR POLITICAL CRONIES (HILLARY HATERS OR NON BELIEVERS) SWIFTBOATED HILLARY. WHEN AT EVERY TURN HER WORDS WERE TWISTER AND TURNED AND SHE WAS MALIGINED AND DISSED BY FELLOW DEM...(AND DON'T SAY YOU DIDN'T NOTICE), I CAN ONLY CONCLUDE YOU WERE LOOKING FOR AN EXECUSE TO KEEP THE MOST QUALIFIED OF THESE TWO CANDIATES FROM BECOMING PREZ.

I AM GRATEFUL THAT HILLARY CLINTON IS MY SENATOR AND THAT YOU ARE NOT.

MAKE NOISE, HILLARY SUPPORTERS...THEN VOTE FOR ANYONE BUT BO OR WRITE IN HER NAME.

FOREVER OUR HERO AND INSPIRATION...VIVA HILLARY. I'LL BE WATCHING ONLY HILLARY AND BILL. EVERYONE ELSE CAN GO JUMP IN THE LAKE.

The Clinton's better get their act together or the Republicans will have us all back in the Dark Ages.

Oh cnn where is the ticker about Hill stumping for Obama today? guess you want to cast a negative light on her.

GO AWAY Bill Richardson!!!!!!

Talk about loving to hear your own voice. Is this guy so hung up on himself that he's thrown out all worries of what he's doing to his friendship with Hillary and Bill? Or is his friendship with them just a facade to get a political booster? This is some kinda ridiculous politician, this Bill Richardson. Cares about no one but himself.

Pretty scary but should work out okay since anything different would be the end of the Clintons and their legacy.

The Benedict Arnold of the 21st century has spoken................Judas, you have bitten the hand that fed you!!! Hope Obama feeds you well!!!

Who cares about Richardson or his thoughts. Turncoat.

Looks like Obama has backed Clinton into a corner where she'll need to play the dutiful housewife to an idiotic man. What a sham this convention will be, where the least qualified candidate out of the pack that began the process (excluding Kucinich and Edwards) will get the nomination.

Thanks again Screaming Dean.

He's got it right. Clinton and her supporters were clinging to "the throne." Fortunately, America does not have a King or Queen and Hillary wouldn't fit the bill anyway. I'm not a big fan of RIchardson but I have to agree that having Hillary put her name in nomination IS the right thing to do. How very considerate and presidential of Obama to support and even encourage that. Now, let's get this Democrat (Obama) elected and toss McCain aside. Enough is enough.

I like the idea of her name being on there. It shows that Obama does consider Clinton a legitimate contender. I respect Obama for showing his support.

Plus, what was he gunna say? "No."??? Puh-lease. He's already struggling to get her supporters.

I used to have much respect for the Clintons,but seeing them prostitute themselves the way they are,that respect is gone.
Don't abandon 18 million Americans who voted for you under the umbrella of party unity.
Maybe it is time for a real third party candidate.
I guess everyone has forgotten the term "REGAN DEMOCRATS"
Just change REGAN to MCCAIN and you have the future.

Richardson betrayed the people that brought him into power. Clinton should have one the nomination and his endorsement wouldn't have helped regardless. Latinos went for Clinton 4 to 1 even after the Richardson endorsement of Obama: Point, I don't care how Bill Richardson feels & Obama will not win this election..... People should talk less of impeaching Bush and worry about a true threat to democracy, Howard Dean.

You are the biggest moran to walk this planet. Of course you were uneasy... because you knew two things (1) she could prove to be the winner (2) you knew payback's are a b#$%!

Go crawl under a rock and you know what.

So this is all about uniting the party... well that's just great... I say to heck with the parties ... we need a strong president who can lead this country, it is not about historical this and that.. yeah, sure.. it makes news.. but the greatest issue of all is voting for a strong experienced leader who can lead this country... bottom line... and I think McCain has proven that over and over again.

On the evidence of the leaderless, or misled, anarchy in the Clinton campaign organisation revealed by the recent leak of emails, it may be that there will be not one but several conflicting roll-calls for Hillary. The words 'paper-bag', 'way out', 'fight' and 'couldn't' spring to mind.

Ya now he is flip flopping like Obama, Bill Richardson is a two face, There is no way we will trust them, Clinton is too good of a leader to be helping them, anyways we will make sure they lose, I will not vote Obama no matter what, and if they do not give it to Hillary , we will vote for McCain, McCain is a lucky man, He has nothing to be nervous about we will vote Clinton in 2012...

You are a TRAITOR! You took Clinton's support when it was acceptable for you and when it did not look so good, Retreated!

PUMA ALL THE WAY............

THIS GUY IS A LOSER.........................

thanx CNN For having me in
i deeply and trully Admire Gov Bill Richardson Stand, its Universelle
and goes beyong American Values,i think he is more Courageous and real more than the Man he endorse(sen Barrack O)
the Convention turn to be the Clinton Convention, Only barrack O can let that happen, the Clintons Claims (UNITY)
if they were Unity, why she didn't drop out
why she Praise mcain
remember 60mns interview??
why publish barrack fotoz dress as Muslim??
we off that Barrack Story..

Hillary in 2012; even if she has to primary against a President Obama.

Write in Hillary on November 4, 2008.

Clinton's are self centered, delusional, and inappropriate.

He should feel uneasy-he betrayed his "longtime friends" the Clintons....God forbid Hillary actually pulled out a convention win...where would Richardson –the traitor– be then?
John Framingham MA

I'm still uneasy :+/ and I don't trust the Clintons.

Mr. Warren, If McCain arrived late to the forum, how did Obama and McCheat flip a coin to see who went first. Did you lie sir?

FOLKS

HOW SURE IS SEN. BILL RICHARDSON, THAT THINGS WILL GO ACCORDING TO HIS STATEMENT ABOVE?

I CANNOT BRING MYSELF TO TRUST THE CLINTONS.

Hillary Clinton might try to pledge her delegates to Sen. Obama, but it's not going to be "a unanimous — a unanimous election."

Democratic Party officials like the ones in Colorado might have tried to intimidate Clinton delegates like Sacha Millstone into keeping quiet and falling in line behind Obama, BUT IT'S NOT GOING TO HAPPEN.

Barack Obama will not have a unanimous election at the faux-Convention.

Richardson needs to stop talking. Besides, who could possibly care about what makes Judas feel a little 'uneasy' or about what "gives [him] comfort"?

Based on who would be the best President there should only be one candidate going up against "The One" at the convention. Forget about Hillary, it should be Richardson as the Presidential nominee. Obama should run in '16 after he's gotten some experience...

Richardson/Biden or Clinton/Richardson in 2008!

Richardson's loyalty went to who he thought was going to win the nomination, to secure a VP or cabinet position for himself, and that's it.

He's a hypocrite if he doesn't think he's clinging on to his own "dynasty" (i.e. his political career).

As far as I'm concerned, him being a pathetic loser is more prevalent to me than his betrayal of the Clintons.

CNN: Why not open the topic "McCain did not violate the cone of silence" for comments. You don't have to, we know the turth; because of the way he anwsered some of the questions. McCain does'nt have any honor when it comes to this campaign Mr. Warren.

Who could possibly care what Judas feels a little 'uneasy' about or what "gives [him] comfort"?

Hillary Clinton might try to pledge her delegates to Sen. Obama, but it's not going to be "a unanimous — a unanimous election."

Knoxville

Judas. Judas. Judas.
We do not like Obama and we will remember in November.

a lot of us were uneasy. I hope it works out.

Forget it Richardson! Obama is going to lose!

JUDAS!

Warren told CNN Sunday evening, “we flat out asked him” if he heard any of the questions. The McCain campaign “confirmed that McCain did not hear or see any of the broadcast” in the motorcade or after he arrived, Ross said.

instead of yes or no:

When asked if McCain overheard anything, Charlie Black, a McCain adviser who was with him at the time, told CNN: "We were in motorcade until 5:30 p.m. ET; then a holding room in another building with no TV."

Warren said, “I trust the integrity of both” candidates.

Are you kidding me? I wouldn' t trust McCain as far as I could push as trolley. He is all about dirty tactics and if he can't find any thing notible to harp about on Obama, he makes up lies. If he wins as a result of his senseless supporters, they deserve everything he gives them, continued war which equals lost lives, continued bad economy and extremely high gas prices, and if you think that he will not raise taxes, you are mistaken. The only thing different between him and Bush is their age.

I have been a fan of the Clintons since their arrival on the World Stage in the early 1990s.
Even then, I was amazed at the cloud of suspicion that followed Hillary Clinton's Quest to take over the White House!

How dare she be as engaged and interested in the issues as her husband is required to be!!
How dare the former First Lady make an unprecedented run for the Senate. They all knew what would be next....a bid for the White House in her own name!!!
It's Amazing what fear a STRONG INTELLIGENT woman can instill in people!!!!

HELLO!
She is an INTELLIGENT woman who knows what's at stake and knows how much Obama needs these voters to support him. She knows she has nothing to gain by attempting to sway Superdelegates to back her nomination.

The only WIN she is in for is a Democrat in the White House in January 2009.

But for those aren't convinced, BEWARE the BOOGIE MAN!!!

For me, Richardson is far scarier than either Hillary or the Boogie Man. With such a friend, enemies are a cakewalk!
The rest of you folks can make up your own mind.

Obama has lost my vote. I will vote for mccain. Nuff said!

I will always be a Clinton supporter as president.

So...so who was Jesus in that scenario, Bill or HIllary?

The life of American is not all about National security as portrayed John Macain,
The time has come when the people should make the right and decision to re-build the
Economy and job creation, and Barrack Obama is the right man, The Democrat has done
It before and they should be give the support to do it again.
Vote Obama is President.
Ambi O.
Brazil

Judas, collect your coins and go off to never never land. No one cares what you think.

yeah, scared his fat butt won't be put in nomination for VP!!!

what a back stabbing hypocrite.

Many many Democrats are upset about your disloyalty and hope you never get a position of trust if the demos take over. A before win that gives you a high position will probably cost the election based on your integrity.

I find it amusing that Richardson has the nerve to question the motives of Hillary Clinton. I and many more Clinton supporters question his motives, and the reasons behind his betrayal. I hope it wasn't to simply get the VP spot because really now that's not happening.

Who cares what Richaardson says or does.He is pandering for a new job.With friends like him who needs enemies.

Traitor. He looks like one as well.

I'm glad she is being placed into nomination. I am sorry to see her release her votes to someone I will never support. He is dishonest as has been his campaign.

So what happens if the delegates change their minds and vote for Hillary and she wins the overall count? After a few past weeks of seeing how his holy highness 'Hussein Obama' been acting like the chosen one, it's not too far fetch.

Richardson why should one care about your concerns? You're a light weight when it cames to national politics.
You could not even get the support of your fellow Hispanics, the same fate awaits Obama.
Obama will lose, Hillary would have won, period.

I also was concerned and I also agree with your conclusion. By the way, Governor, I was happy to see that you followed what you believed in and endorsed the candidate you concluded was best for us. It must have been hard to make the decision knowing very well that all kind of knives were going to be thrown at you; you are actually quite impressive.

The clintons never get over anything. They PUT stuff over on people, but that's different.

I am outraged that Hillary won't have a true roll-call.

PLEASE GO BACK INTO THAT RAT HOLE YOU CRAWLED OUT OF.

"Richardson on Sunday called Clinton a “long-time friend” who “ran a great race.”

DIDN'T YOU GET THE MEMO JUDAS, YOU ARE NOT EVEN CONSIDERED AN ACQUAINTANCE.

Is anybody else concerned about a back-room double cross here? How many superdelegates have been bought to switch from Obama to the Clintons? It would be there style to suddenly have more votes and rub Obama's face in it.

What do you want richardson?

Who cares what Richardson has to say,the man has the loyalty of a rooster to his hens. This guy is a sell out who should never be offered another political hand by anyone,let alone be asked his opinion on the Clintons ,who he clearly betrayed at every opportunity!!

I like Richardson and hope Obama picks him for VP. They strike me as a good fit. Carville's criticisms are stupid. I find it interesting James Carville and Bill Bennet would appear on CNN to comment on issues, it is obvious both support McCain. I say that b/c Mary Matlin (McCain supporter) is the editor of Corsi's book and is married to Carville. He is a die hard HRC fan and was feeling "Blue" when the Clintons were not successful. Now, he comes to half-heartedly support Obama but secretly hoping he lose. His presence at CNN is fake and anyone with half a brain could see this. Thank You Gov. Richardson for being a true supporter of senator Obama.

The DNC recognizes that Obama's numbers just are NOT moving. He cannot close the deal.....not after the primary....not after his trip to the Middle East....not after hobnobbing with European leaders....not after rejuvenating vacations.

We're less than 2 weeks from the Dem Convention, and Obama hasn't named his VP yet. Could it be because the DNC is taking it's first hard look at what Obama is going to face in November? Are the Dem leaders trying to figure out what they are doing wrong? After all, this should NOT have happened! Right?

Who could have figured that the polls taken during the primary would actually come true?!!!!!!!

Senator Clinton has every right in the world to have her name put up for a roll call vote. She has done something no other woman has ever done, not even close.
She has broke ground for many women in the future and I would think they would take the roll call vote to the time that Obama has the required number of delegates for the democratic presidential candidate and if some would change their minds and Clinton were to some how get the required number so be it.
It would not be the first time someone thought they had the win in the bag and when votes were counted they found out otherwise.

The Clinton prominence at the Democratic Convention has nothing to do with "catharsis". It has everything to do with her (their) political posturing. She is wired to do that. I do not believe for a minute that screaming Hillary fans, who are unhappy now, will turn around in the subsequent minutes, hours, or days to cheer Barack on. I can confidently say that, had the tables been turned, Hillary's team would not have given Barack a nod, much less 2 days worth of hype at "her" convention. This is the very thing that I love about Barack's leadership style. When leaders listen and are conciiatory there is more room at the table for discourse that leads to solutions. A few other leaders with these qualities are Sarkosy and Colin Powell.

Happy to see you guys talking again ...I hope this will inspired supporters from both sides to unite ......DEMS 08

United we stand, divided we fall..... standing for division is a path to failure.

I still remain uneasy about all the recognition the Clintons are getting. It seems insane to me that the Clintons should be relevant. I don't trust the Clintons......if they had any true sense of wanting to get a Democrat in the White House in November, they'd stop demanding attention for themselves and get behind Obama 100%. Hillary lost the primary - why is she draining the Democratic Party and voters of energy with continued demands to be in the limelight.

As for her "historic"" race, I think that it is was a shameful one. She should have dropped out after her string of losses and allowed Democrats to get solidly behind Barack Obama. She hung in though, playing so many dirty cards, including the gender card, knowing that she'd be able to play on racial prejudice in a few conservative states at the end of the primary season. Let's not kid ourselves that Indiana, Pennsylvania etc loved Hillary that much - what she proved is that there are Americans who are more racist than sexist. Some legacy, Hillary!

Who cares what he thinks??

Obama is back pedeling on all of his primary promises. This looks like he is backpedeling on his win. A pure politition.

PUMA. Never gonna happen. The dems can give him omination, but this 25 year democrat isn't going to vote for Obama.

I think he now knows that he doesnt have any job with Obama.

Do not like or trust Bill Richardson. And now he even looks sketchy with that goatee or whatever it is.

Richardson! Your'e a Jerk Mr... You dump Hillary, for the Idiot.. Now you pay the Price,,, In November you will be the "Double Jerk"....

Having a token roll call will not satisfy Hillary's supporters. We will vote McCain. McCain08; Hillary 2012!!

I really pray to God Almighty to unite the Democrate in Denver, so they could win in November for the sake of the world; Sen John Mccain is too forward to my liking, we really don't want another war in American hand; ( the innocent blood) Go Obama 2008

Hillary must go for the presidency.

I really pray to God Almighty to unite the Democrate in Denver, so they could win in November for the sake of the world; Sen Hohn Mccain is to forward to my liking, we raelly don't want another war in American hand; ( the innocent blood) Go Obama 2008

So is it an actual roll call, state by state, and all the delegates get to cast their votes (which is why they were elected, after all), and then a motion to make it unanimous, or are they going to try to short-circuit all this to fit it into an hour of prime time network television, giving us another of those old Soviet-style ballots. C'mon, everyone, we used to do this every four years, both parties, and no one got hurt. It was fun. All the fun has been carefully leached out of these overproduced TV shows that purport to govern their parties.

Bah.

Angelina Jolie and Colin Powell will endorse Obama soon1

Of course if during the roll call she has more delegates... will she pledge them to Obama who has less than her?

Could be a tricky situation if Obama doesn't hold his pledged count after allowing Florida and Michigan to count.

I am uneasy too Bill

It ain't over till its over.
The Clintons may be in play at the convention for 1 last shot , don't
put anything past them. Party unity is second behind their drive for
the presidency and legacy.
This republican will be avidly watching.

How much does future President Obama have to accomodate the Clinton's? He beat her fair and square, and now has to

1. Allow her (and her husband) prime time speaking forums at the convention.

2. Place her name in nomination to appease all the radical feminists that feel like30-years of mind-numbing affirmative action isn't enough!

Barack Obama will be a wonderful President; he has shown unbelieveable strength, endurance, grace, and patience throughout this whole electoral process, and we should all congratulate him.

I just hope that the Clinton camp isn't preparing an ambush that will wreck havoc with his nomination, or force him to take Hillary as his Vice Presidential pick.

Obama '08

Chris Mannoia

When did Sen Clinton say that she is going to pledge her delegates to Sen Obama? This would defeat the idea of a nomination process.

Who cares what Bill Richardson thinks he keeps looking for some opening to mke himself relevant to this election. He needs to remember he lost and that it isn't about him. He is also not the authority on Hillary Clinton. Obama has established communication with Hillary nd we don't need Richardson to play interpretor

Bill Richardson, keep up with the good work. you're a good man.

You felt a little uneasy? I had a panic attack.

Some of us worked hard for Hillary and we deserve to see her name placed in nomination and votes cast for her during the roll call. If Richardson had run a more successful campaign, he would have done better in the primaries and he would understand.

He better be uneasy... Hillary IS going to be the nominee, and he, Richardson, will have to answer for his betrayal.

You will still betray your friends Mr. Richardson. You align yourself with whom ever you see as a benefit to your future. Your a trader to your friends and hopefully they do not call you a friend anymore! This just reflects your character and a good indicator how you will probably act in the future. You could not even represent your states choice in the primary (who was Clinton) when you made your endorsement. Pathetic!

Fundraising with Hill in MY beautiful NM will not REDEEM you, Bill.

You did a terrible thing going negative on Hill.

Positive on Obama- okay. But how is it good to HATE on Hillary- the OTHER candidate of your own party.

I will never forgive or forget that.

Mr Richardson is upset seeing his name gone down the drain and nowhere in top 5 VP list.

But, he can still hope to get a "good position" in Obama's cabinet, IF Obama wins.

BARACK THE VOTE!!!!!!!

He will be known as one of the greatest presidents in our countries history! I was uneasy about the decision too, I'm still uneasy about, I believe she's got something up her sleeve, Hopefully she proves me wrong...

Apparantly it takes much bigger men then Obama and his thugs and the entire DNC and the army of superdelegates to tear this great lady down.

The party is at her mercy and at the mercy of all her supporters.

Pray that we can forgive your hatred and vitriol.

The democrats deserve to go down in the flames of the racial tensions and hatred that they agitated and stirred up.

BARACK THE VOTE!!!!!!

He will become one of the greatest presidents in our countries history, I'm still uneasy about the decision, I still believe she's got something up her sleeve, Hopefully she proves me wrong

The Clinton's have done a fine job of destroying the Democratic Party. There should be dancing in the streets after they are out of politics for good.

The whole Judas comment bothers me. Are people saying that Hilkary is Christ-like? The man can vote for who he wants. We are supposed to live in a free country but apparently the Clintons think they are above all that and that it is their right to lead.

Sorry, no more Bushes or Clintons, please. Time for some change.

I'm so glad that Hillary being a bigger and better person to Obama and the party than any of you were to HER, gives you great comfort.

I do not care for how you treated HRC. Build up Obama? Fine.

Do it by trashing another democratic candidate? Not so fine.

My vote is not won by HRC capitulating.

The party is in peril by its own deeds.

I too am a bit troubled about Clinton being included in a Roll Call based upon her past behavior of total disrepect toward Obama during the primary season. She can be pretty vicious. Her campaign was the campaign of distortions and out and out lies. Based upon this characterization of her campaign, which is accurate, I would say she is not to be trusted with the interest of the Democratic party.

Obama showed he is a gentleman once again. He is giving her a long rope...I hope she doesn't hang herself–again.

I think this is great. Sen Clinton will have her roll call as it should be and her and Bill will get their speaking time. I just hope that there will be civility from some of her overzealous supporters (PUMA's) during the convention. Their behavior will determine where Sen Clinton's political career goes from here on out. The entire world will be watching so please play nice.

Hopefully, Mrs. Clinton's hunger for power will not attempt to change the agreement just after her moment. The Clintons have created similar stunts before.

If they keep to their word, then it will be a fitting tribute as an official end to the exclusive old boy game.

Fingers are here crossed. No power grab, please!

The Clinton concren that Richardson had was very valid. The clinton's is still bitter and looking for more concession since the Clinton's lost the bid for the White House

They're back.... be afraid, be very afraid!

FIrst Hillary, then McCain!!!!

Obama for President!!!!!

Nervous about a roll call? What Richardson aka Judas should be nervous about is the election. Clinton supporters like myself wont be voting for Obama. Clinton was the best choice.

I used to be a Hillary Supportor, but her behavior made me ashamed of her and of myself for ever supporting her. In reality she was the least experienced candidate. Her husband being a former president doesn't count.

Once I learned more and more about Obama, the more I liked him! Years as a Senator, and years in his home state as a politician too. Plus President of the Harvard Law Club. He has better answers to all the issues, and he is more honest.

Obama 08!!!!

Please pick Richardson or Sebelius for VP!!!!!!!!!

This is no gift to Clinton; it's a deal. She only gets the roll call if she releases her delegates.
The Obama campaign has reason to run scared.
PUMA

I don't think the Clintons should get over this – We saw the manipulation of the DNC, Dean, Pelosi, Reid, the MSM and the nastiness of the Obama supporters. Obama was and still is not vetted. Give me a break – a vote for Hillary was also a vote against Obama, so the Dems shouldn't expect a united front.

Still, what does this have to do with getting Karl Rove in prison?

This was posted in July about my previous statement – CNN – I have freedom of speech the same as everyone else !!!!! You haven't posted anything of mine, not matter how nice or how informative.

President George W. Bush strikes again and he strikes big (and we’re not talking about oil, people). It’s becoming more and more apparent that he wants to go down as the most disliked president in history. Since the beginning of time, it has been clear that mixing religion with politics is not what this country was founded on, however, Bush tries to interweave his religious beliefs with governing the United States, very subtly following a third world country’s footsteps.As posted in Reuters.com, the Bush administration plan is set to define several widely used contraception methods as abortion. And according to Sen. Hillary Clinton, this is a “gratuitous, unnecessary insult” to women. Joining family planning groups to block this proposal, if they are unable to stop Bush’s team, “federal funds to hospitals and states where medical providers are obligated to offer legal abortion and contraception to women would be cut off.”

“We will not put up with this radical, ideological agenda to turn the clock back on women’s rights,” the New York senator told a joint news conference with New York Rep. Nita Lowey, also a Democrat, at Bellevue Hospital.

Unity is good but why do those 18 million voters refuse to bail out Hillary from her debt?

Has anyone asked Hillary if she intends to pledge her delegates to Obama? Have we heard it from her own mouth? The campaigns have agreed. But has Hillary agreed?

I seem to remember talk that Hillary said she would NOT put her name into nomination. But we never heard it from her directly. And now the opposite is true.

Would a little more encouragement from a few die-hard supporters, and I mean a VERY FEW die-hards, push Hillary to make one last grab at the ring? Vanity is susceptible to these sorts of things.

As a Hillary supporter, I am not as upset about Hillary losing as I am about the way Obama won. Playing the race card that anyone who disagrees with a black person is automatically a racist. The verbal abuse and physical threats from Obama supporters used against Hillary supporters at many of the later caucuses forced Hillary supporters to leave out of fear of their personal safety. The pure hatred still being displayed by his supporters against Hillary and her supporters in these very postings. The way Obama supporters portray him as a Messiah. The last false Messiah with hate-filled followers that the world had goose-stepped their way to power in Germany. I will not be responsible for the same thing happening in this country.

PUMA - Vote McCain

Sorry, but I do think he is an oportunist. He is probably seeking a cabinet position that's why he endorsed Obama early on.

Don't worry Hillary, there will be a woman president soon!!!!
Won't be YOU!!!!
BUT IT WILL HAPPEN!!!!

Kathleen Sebelius – VP 2008
Kathleen Sebelius – VP 2012
Kathleen Sebelius – President 2016
Kathleen Sebilius – President 2020

Many millions of democrats are uneasy over Obama, how he stole this nomination, the treatment of HRC, the vitriol from Obama's supporters, the ugly way Obama campaigned against Hillary.

So your unease is self inflicted. She is the victim- not you and not the chosen one, Obama.

Who cares about comments from Judas Richardson? And who cares if Obama is all nice-nice and willing to make concessions to Clinton now that she is no longer a potential threat to his nomination? He's just trying to kiss up to Hillary supporters because....NOW...he needs their votes. In a pig's eye!

Bottom line....Obama was selected, not elected.....he was pushed, dragged and shoved over the finish line by the DNC and superdelegates back on May 31st. And Harriet Christian had it absolutely right! They are not to be trusted. I am done with them.

Former lifelong Democrat......now brand-new Republican.

I love the way the DNC and the Obama camp and the democrats all thought that the road to victory and unity was paved by ganging up on Hillary and piling on the Obama bandwagon.

Nothing but hateful, scheming fools.

Inspire hope and party unity by using the divisive tactics of race-baiting and name-calling and insults against greater than 50% of the party.

Way to go....

So it was Hillary's idea to have her name on the nominee roll call to count her votes, and she thinks it will appease her supportors. Then she will give those votes to Obama.

Nice of Obama to go along with the idea..
But, I WOULD'T TRUST HER!!!!!

Could be yet another dirty trick by the Clintons!!!!

Bill Richardson needs to go away...just go away...

Here is the best pick for VP. Lots of different kinds of experience and a great relationship with the Latino community. What a shock for white Republican conservatives.

Can't rest until the Clintons have spoken.

What is wrong with the Democrats? They are acting like elitest Republicans... Clinton can do as she wants – she earned those delegates... it's the democratic process... if it's all fabricated before hand then you might as well just forego the convention and move on with the "back room" selected nominee... displaying the democratic process on the floor only confirms the honest and open process the Democrats claim they support. Leave Hillary alone – if it weren't for her and her husband, the Democrats would still be the minority since the party can't seem to get their act together. I'm a Democrat but not a completely happy one – I've thought of moving to be an Independent. I don't see the Democrats as moving a new agenda. For now, I'll stay in the Dems camp but the party is not really representing my values or philosophy of government any more.

Who cares what Richardson thinks? Who knows what Hillary is going to do with her delegates. We all have to wait and see what happens at the convention. Either way, I hope it will be positive and that the Democrats can take back the White House. Whatever the outcome, if Senator Obama or Hillary Clinton become the eventual nominee, either one should pledge their delegates to the other. That way would be a sure way to have a Democrat for our next President. Good luck to both Senator Clinton and Senator Obama. Still a Hillary Clinton supporter but will vote for Senator Obama; NEVER McCain!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Iowa has just over 660 thousand registered Democrats. In the caucus Obama only got 89,818 votes. Less than 14% of ALL the registered Democrats.

The State has 1,922,235 total registered voters. He only got 4.7% of total registered voters. The fall election will not be a caucus. The remaining the 95% in any of the caucus States haven't been heard from. Obama's poll numbers reflect the majority will not go with him.

Then the 'Super Delegates' wrapped it up. Richardson and the other Supers will be proven wrong about their hype. They should leave it to the voters....One person...One Vote.

Without Hillary, I would not even watch the convention- and I have not missed it in 35 years.

SHE IS THE SHOW.

OBAMA is just an arrogant, cocky, self-impressed puppet that the DNC is propping up. It took all of you to knock her down and hold him up. Even so... Obama is still not standing up on his own.

Obama should never have divided the party to secure (steal) the nomination.

It was NOT worth it. Mark my words. Haters for democracy is not the direction the party needs to take. The Obama supporters are all nasty, vicious and insulting.

I can't stand this man. Judas is just jealous that Hillary got further than he did.

This is a good analysis about Hill & Bill from Richardson

His endorsement of Obama was viewed as an act of betrayal by some longtime supporters of the Clintons. CNN Political Analyst James Carville, who has long and deep ties to both Clintons, even likened Richardson’s endorsement to Judas’s betrayal of Christ.

Richardson responded to Carville’s criticisms by saying that Carville and other Clinton supporters believe they are a “dynasty” and that they were “clinging to the throne.”

Power hungry
Power hungry
Power hungry

Losing that potential power was a devastating nighmare to them
that I doubt they are over it
.
They had a taste of it, and they wanted MORE

Stop Hillary. She has lost and she's going to destroy Obama.

Ego, ego, ego, ego.
Get over it. I used to respect both of them (Bill & Hill) but now I see them as political trailer trash that steal votes from the electoral buffet. Do you think the Republicans would allow something this ridiculous to occur? No, and that's why McCain might win. Hillary is trying to steal the spotlight and turn the Democratic convention into an orgy of personal audulation all the while abusing the feminists in the same way that Bush exploits the evangelicals.

Hillary, the conversation that you started, well even if it was at one time two-sided, is now officially over.

Beltway Greg

There is a certain je ne sais quoi, that I don't like about Richardson. i hope that something historic happens an Hillary is elected the nominee. If that doesn't happen then I'll be for Mr. McCain

Bill she says she is going to transfer her delegates to Obama but if it gets closer? PUMA

I guess he now wants to get back in favor with the Clintons. It does not make any difference anymore because Mc Cain will win. The Clinton supporters might say they will support obama but wait til election day when they remember the way Clinton was treated by the Democratic party bosses and they will vote for Mcain.Amercia lost the chance to elect a great leader in Mrs Clinton.

I'm just sitting buy, watching Hillary Haters , learn that she will soon be our President. Remember- She's no dummy.

COMMENT:
GOV. RICHARDSON 'WAS' A LITTLE UNEASY WITH HILLARY
ON THE FLOOR, JUST WAIT, EVERYONE' S UNEASY,
THE QUEEN" HAS FALLEN, AND SHE CAN'T GET UP"? THIS IS SOMETHING I "DON'T WANT" TO MISS, AND THE BILL DON'T CARE?

I am uneasy with how the Obama supporters do not seem to like to play by the democratic party rules. Remember the caucus vote irregularities and violations? Remember blocking a revote in Fl and Mi?

They want to install the nominee... at any cost.

Reflects badly on Obama- makes him look weak to need to cheat and steal a nomination. To need to minimize Hillary in order to make himself look good.

HRC has the same rights at the convention as all the male candidates before her had.

TRUTH is... everyone now knows she is the better choice. We may be good democrats and still vote for Obama- but we know what he did to get there... and we are not fooled by efforts to magnify his appeal.

I was never fond of Bill Richardson not even before the Campaign began. He might be the Best of the Best in men and politicians, there is just something that makes me feel very uncomfortable about this man. I can't put my finger on it but I've made many decisions based on my intuition and it has served me well. I truly hope Barack isn't thinking about Richardson for VP.

I hope that agreement is signed in blood and noterized...I do not trust this and will hold my breath til it is over!

Do not bet on it, NOT TRUSTWORTHY>

I am uneasy about voting for Obama.

I do not like men who boast and brag and pretend to be the savior of the world.

You already lost all you clout and credibility when you demeaned and degraded HRC and trashed Bill with your ugly, bitter, divisive criticisms.

No Obama supporter can seem to praise Obama based on his merits. All they ever do is ridicule and insult and debase Hillary.

You caused a defection from the party with all of your ugly, biased, anti-Hillary propaganda attack machine.

It has backfired on you.

I think after last night's (Warren discussion) there is no doubt that the humbleness that Sem/ Obama showed proved he is ready for the Presidency. He reasons and rationalizes and utilizes the Lord and his family for direction, along with the power wigs in this country. I have no doubt that Sen. Clinton will do what is just and right and give her full support to him.
Both Senators, Obama and Clinton, have a history that began with a cause that was not self seriving, addressing issues that are still ongoing today and will be until the day our Lord returns. Their efforts have not been in vain. I had left the Democratic party a few years back because at all three levels it had lost way but I think it is finding it's way back to it's purpose of helping their fellow man.

Who says she is going to hand over her delegates??? She shouldn't, she should be entitled to run and see how the American people vote.

OK PUMAs – Bush wants to get rid of birth control by making it a form of abortion – no congressional vote on it, just RULE, McCain wants to remove all choices for you regarding how many babies you or your daughters no matter by whom or what the circumstances.

Your choice PUMA people – This may be the last choice you ever have – you may be too busy in 3 or 4 years tending to a "baby a year". Financially and physically, it will keep you from having a real life of your own, or it may prevent your daughter from education – unless you're married to one of those people making the big bucks.

How could you TRASH the Clintons like you did.

How can democrats do that to fellow party members and leaders of the party.

It was disturbing to watch.

Why not simply gloat gleefully about the Messiah and leave it at that? Why not extoll Obama's virtues and be content with staying positive?

Why do the angry, hateful... "she feels entitled to the throne" scene?

How does that encourage hope and unity?

How is that positive?

Why complaing about a divided party when the DNC and superdelegates helped Obama to divide it?

Bill... the next time you endorse a candidate, please be positive about that candidate and give reasons for why you support THAT candidate.

But... please... do not do it by attacking, denigrating and insulting the OTHER candidate of your party.

Your hatred and negativity towards Hillary- along with that of Obama and all his other supporters- caused me to vow to NEVER vote for Obama.

I have never seen democrats gut and carve one of their own the way the party has done and continues to do to HRC.

You all destroyed the democratic party and the chances for a Nov win.

Richardson–now there's a guy you can trust and rely on--so happy he's in the Obama camp now where he can stab everyone in the back.
Obama better sleep with one eye open with this guy around.

the 18 million is still wrong thats an exaggeration. perpetuated by the media.

I am uneasy about the vitriolic anti-Hillary attitude you continue to sport in the name of unity and positive campaigning.

I am of NM and you used to shine in my eyes, until you decided to be positive about Obama by going negative and disrespecting Hillary.

What's the point of putting her name in for the nomination?

Including Hillary's name on the roll call on the DNC is partly a fantasy recognition of her 18M voter strong. Question is:
1. What if the delegates, or superdelegates, will nominate Clinton for the US Presidency? What will Howard Dean do?
2. What if the Clinton supporters will just "do not vote staunch" and will leave Obama at his own?
I am totally negative in voting for Obama, not because I am 100% a Clintonian, but the way the DNC went flip flopping during the early days of primaries/caucuses did not do anything to resolve the situation.
If McCain will win, SO BE IT.
Shame on Kennedy, Richardson, Edwards, et al... in physically vetting Obama in endorsing them as if Hillary is just not worthy candidate.

We all know the Clintons never thoght they would be losers in the political game.Now they want to use the convention to cleanse themselves by suger-coating Obama and putting themselves in the public eye one more time as having suported Obama.
Not this time! Not this election!

The party is not united!!!!!!! That is wishful thinking.

Richardson is a good man, certainly much better leader than any one the party of Rove and Chaney has produced. Just if he were not such a suck up to the criminal immigrant lobby. McBush had been a good man in 2000 before he got swift boated by the guys he is currently being bank rolled by. He is to old and too sold out.

As a Soldier in the Army, I agree with Richardson, Clinton campaign was negative, yet "Historic" at the same time and of course the Obama campaign has done the right thing. The PUMA GOP/RNC plot did not materialized. The suppose conflict between OBAMA-CLINTON is a fabricated attempt by "Fox" and all those 1960's bigots who are still living in the matrix. Tiger Woods end the Ole Boy club on Golf, and OBAMA will end it on the Presidency. With America becoming "very" ethnic in 2042 it is time the nation begin unplugging from the matrix and get ready for the transition to a more unipolar America with a Black, Hispanic, Asian and Female President, which will take place in 2008, 2012, 2016 and onward. America will not elect another Republican President for 20 years. Until the GOP become an ethnic party or morf into something else, it's "Federalism" push on the states is now its downfall. McCain in his own words said he is a Federalist, and that is why he won't become President among other things. We need a President who is thoughtful, don't wear religion on his sleeve and who understands the constitution. McCain is an accident waiting to happen!
I agree with Richardson, I am going to be so elated when Bill Clinton nominate General Wesley Clark for the Vice Presidency, OBAMA-CLARK is an appropriate ticket for this 21st Century!

AMERICAN DREAM is about to be realized for ALL AMERICANS. We in the military cannot await the truest hero soon enough! McCain is not a military Hero! Clark is, and any attempt on General Clarke will alienate the GOP!

I will always believe Richardson is a "JUdist". There is no loyalty from him. His timing proved that he was in this for himself–not America. He is finished politically. I am glad Obama is smart enough not to choose him as any major part of his administration.

Can't imagine that anything this "JUDAS" says is worth worrying about. All he really cares about is himself and what he can get.

Always needing to stay in the limelight. Clintons are ego driven. I wish they would just go away.

He has a right to feel a little uneasy, for there is no telling what mischief the Clintons may cause.

The question remains, as it has for years, is...Senator Clinton is a senator from New York, but when will she a senator FOR New York? There's more than one reason why the public gives Congress such low ratings these days, but here's another reason. People who work for a living and see their paycheck reduced for federal taxes would like to have a higher sense of confidence that the money is being spent wisely. I haven't a clue how she spends public money, other than running for an office that does not directly benefits New Yorkers, but she's been running for President since the day she got elected Senator, so I suppose it's too much to expect her to provide real benefits to working New Yorkers. Action speaks, empty words do not. What do 18 million people believe she is capable of accomplishing, other than casting a vote for being a woman or being proud of a politician who can't provide much in the way of honest answers?

I'd like to know who Bill Richardson thinks that he is ...... as far as I am concerned, he is the governor of one of the poorest, most backward states that I have ever been in. I was born there, but now live elsewhere and New Mexico is in terrible shape.

It's like going to a third world country in terms of healthcare, the economy, public facilities, etc. He should worry about his own little backyard.

Richardson is forever in my mind a judas – huge loser. He ís power hungry and sold out friends (didn't even take phonecalls from President Clinton) to get power.

Bill Richardson is not the only person that left the Clinton camp to support Obama and he used his freedom of choice wisely.

What an absolute Obama synchophant! This guy hates Hillary Clinton so much, he obviously doesn't care that half the party voted for her. Let her name be placed for roll call. If Obama's support really is that strong he should have nothing to worry about.

Richardson (and CNN) should get over it. Richardson "shouldn't" be talking period. As he stirred things up all by himself. And CNN shouldn't be rehashing OLD news and OLD quotes as if they just were said today.

This isn't news... period.

Wynter

Richardson is the clown governor of a clown state where failure is the norm, handouts are greater than in any other state, even Mississippi, and the people are proud to be Mexicans, not Americans. Speak Spanish, or you can't work in New Mexico in most fields. But there isn't much work anyway. Go away, clown.

I still don't trust her and Bill. They are almost as power hungry as the McWarmonger.

Obama '08

Even if Hillary pledges her delegates to Sen. Obama
he is not getting my vote
he makes me sick
Hillary has my vote

It's called a Democracy. People voted and they should be represented in the convention, even if it's a loss. It's simple as that. Richardson should get over it.

So, I used to like this guy. Now I'm disgusted by how much of a publicity opportunist he has been at the expense of Hillary Clinton. Not only did the Clintons give him the notoriety that he now splashes all over the TV, but he does an interview whenever Hillary Clinton is the subject on the news. Too much of this talking head -

Bill RIchardson is the best choice for a VP. His credencials on both foreign and domestic affairs are unmatched. He has charisma, he's a fellow minority, and he's perhaps the most intelligent, thoughtful moderate Democrat in the game. An Obama-Richardson ticket would be unbeatable, and good for the country in Washington.

I salute the courage that it took for Governor Richardson to endorse Senator Obama considering his relationship with the Clintons. He obviouosly has the good of the country at heart and reognises the need for change. I was an avid supporter of both the Clintons throughout the Clinton presidencies and all the scandals but I have been sorely disappointed by the negative, almost childish behaviour coming from that camp. I have re-vised my thinking about the Clintons and did not like what I saw during the primaries. It was a revelation!!! a rude awakening I can understand why hitherto loyal supporters would move away from that machine.

Haha, a "leader" of the "Democratic" party is afraid of delegates being pledged to a candidate they chose. I don't think this windbag could get any more hilarious.

No wonder RICHARDSON IS AFRAID,if a roll call is done Hillary will win and honesty is in no way richarson or OBAMAS way, they would rather steal an election,well MC Cain will now be in the white house for the next 4 yrs.thanks to them.

Bottom line is Unity in Denver and a new era of Hope and Change for Amarica starting on 1/20/2009

I see richardson is still seeking publicity on the backs of his old friends, the Clintons. It occurred to me that he'll use any means to get his face on television.

bill richardson is a good guy.this nation is lucky to have latinos like him. obama/clark '08

Hillary has actually ran a very competitive campaign with a lot of negativity on Obama. With 18 million votes on in her kitty she deserve some recognition.

However, I do hope she will not steal Obama nomination at the convention, she seems too hungry to become the first female US president.

Gov. Richardson do you think Gov. Kathleen will be okay as
VP or Gov. Kaine. McCain is lying between his teeth on religion
and local issues.

Is there ever going to be a end to IT IS ALL ABOUT HILLARY nonsense. People are sick to death of hearing about the Clinton family

I wouldn't get too comfortable Gov Richardson. I wouldn't put anything past the Clintons.

If all the del. that Edwards got and then Hillery = TRUMP

When are Americans going to stop hating. Far more can be accomplished if we focus on common needs of all Americans. Then focusing on beleifs that we differ and the color of an American's skin. We are all American First and we need to help all the poor, we need to help all the homeless,and we need to provide a quality education to all of our children. Division and hate is ruining this great country. The Replubicans are for dividing Americans to get their agenda pushed through. While jobs go overseas and the debt continue to rise higher and higher.

I hope the party can get UNITY. Clinton was puting out a lot of mixed messages to her supporters, she did not sound sincere about supporting Obama. I think she did damage to Obama & just gave fuel to the Repubs to use against Obama. I still believe Hillary wants to be Pres & hopes Obama fails & she can prevail as the candidate. We keep hearing about the October Surprise. If not, she(Hillary) wants to run in 2012. I do not trust Hillary, trying to get Obama elected. She does not come accross as 100% for Obama. I do trust Bill Richardson. Obama/Richardson would be a winning ticket.

No doubt Richardson nervous, because he knew there was a good chance people might choose Hillary regardless of the late Convention for the presumptous nominee and that The One has been calling the shots at the DNC and the Convention, especially when folks are seeing his tanking numbers and his major flips on core principles and his own campaign positions.

And, your example of Richardson's flip on support also shows he lied when he claimed he never said he wasn't going to support Obama. You just covered how he admitted he was going to support Hillary, but changed his mind, on a lie that the Obama folks were baiting negativity from Clintons, when it was them. That's why he lost Ohio, Texas, Pennsylvana, Rhode Island...AND INDIANA, of which he was supposed to win. They saw his negative ads, lies.

But, Richardson also shows he'll play gutter politics anytime, as long as he thinks he will benefit in the end.

Your example of him responding to a Clinton supporter is perfect. He didn't respond to the people, he further put down the Clintons, who did NOT make the statements. He said "they think they think their entitled" (again Obama talking point) and as you just said they are a “dynasty” and that they were “clinging to the throne.”

You gotta wash your hands when you deal with Richardson.

I don't give a hoot as to what gives Richardson "comfort." JUDAS!

Richardson is scum, he's all about pleasing the powers that be. He doesn't have a loyal bone in his body, he saw a way to be on the VP short list, and he threw Clinton under the bus. Obama has the same principles, so I can't wait until the same thing happens to one of them.

Richardson has really become a spineless parrot. I hope Clinton gets the nomination: First – because she'll win. Second – so I can see the look on Richardson's face as the reality sets in. He must still think he has a shot at VP. How sad.

I used to have a lot of respect for Governor Richardson. But then he spent months saying that superdelegates should vote the way their State did; how it was a moral imperative. He came off as downright evangelical about the responsibilities of elected officials right up until he backed the guy his state didn't choose. I don't care who he supported. I just think he showed himself to be even less than the average hypocritical politician. Not only did he publicly back a guy against his own "principles" but he did it the way a coward would, after it could have made a real difference and in the way most guaranteed to publicly slap a man who was nothing but loyal and giving to him. I'm glad James Carville called him out.

The Democratic Party still needs to aggressively disavow groups like PUMA, which have outrightly stated ther intention to disrupt the convention. Sometime, during the primaries, it became evident that Barack's or Hillary's supporters could be either very delighted or disappointed, depending on if their candidate won or lost. PUMA is a closet Republican group and the Democrats need to address these concerns.

Maybe Mr. Carville should check out his own backyard before flinging around names like 'Judas', especially considering his lovely wife's part in getting the recent pack of smears & lies about Mr. Obama published.

I once admired the man but he has become nothing more than a cruel, sick, twisted & increasingly irrelevant joke at this point.

It was commendable that Clinton and Obama made their decision together about the convention. Both historic campaigns deserved this mutual respect. Dems '08

I smell a big switcheroo at the convention. At the very least, the Clintons are planning to weaken Obama so that he loses in the fall. They need to beware that people have long memories and they are going to be punished for it by the party of they succeed. They are consistently putting themselves before the good of the country and the nation because they can't bear to let go of their power base and Democrats will hold them accountable for their actions if they go wrong.

Another flip from Obama.

Hillary is nothing but a back stabber doing this. You know the clintons have something up their sleeve, she will never give her delgates to Obama and she is just pretending that she is Obama and deep down her and Willy never get behnd obama, they just are simply too two faced. And they will never change Hillary and her puma supporter need to be brought down on their knees, for doing this.

Poor Richardson, he betrayed his old friends in hopes of the VP slot, then wasn't even include on the 'short list'.

IF Obama wins, maybe he will get a cabinet post. Again. Always the bridesmaid, never the bride.

The beard looks nice though, bet the ladies love it...

Can we fast forward to Barack Obama swearing in as the President of the United States. I've made my mind up already. Now I will just cast my vote in November and pray for him to succeed. The Clinton hype is of no concern to me. I am just tired of it all.

I still wouldn't trust them. Watch your back Senator Richardson.

All Bill Richardson is doing is covering himself. He abandoned the Clintons and then had the audacity to say, "The Clintons should get over this". I'm sure when he said that he didn't realize how loyal Clinton supporters can be. Now that he has seen what true loyalty is from Clinton supporters that have been fighting to have her represented at the convention; he just wants to add a buffer with his empty praises. I'm sure the Clintons will not forget his betrayal. I know I won't.

Richardson should keep his mouth shut.....it is well-known that he is a liar.

You guys will make a big mistake if you go for obama, but its your country,
or has been up to now.

Yeah, well I think you should continue to be concerned. It's not like you can trust a Clinton. Bill is probably back room dealing at this moment.

I'll be so glad when the Clinton's self serving behavior will be relegated to footnotes in the annals of history. What's disappointing is this election for the Clintons was all about them and not the country. And the fact their egos are so big we have to give them a platform to aire their self inflicted grievances is sad. Obama has been nothing short of gracious and I would have hoped at some point it kicked in that his generosity is not a sign of weakness. As I see no indication of that I can only wait til this election is over before I can forget about the Clintons.

I wonder what post Richardson will get for selling out his friends as well as the people of New Mexico for the highly unqualified Barry Obambi ?

OUTSOURCE THE PRESIDENCY!

Uh...she did not run a great race. It was anything but great. It was gutter politics and it stank. She did run a tough race, but it was anything but a great race. Clinton should be ashamed of herself as should all her elitist and arrogant supporters who think rules are not relevant unless their candidate wins. So lets say she ran a shameful campaign as well. I'm still wondering why her 18 million cracks in the sky haven't helped her pay off her debt yet? C'mon...what are you all waiting for? They are all just like their candidate...phoney.

I so much want Bill Richardson as VP. He brings it all to the table.

- Executive experience
– and with it – budgeting experience, natural disaster experience, etc..
- Energy policy experience
- Foreign policy experience
- Immigration policy experience
- International respect

Plus he would help with the West and with Latino citizens who have been ignored and marginalized by the Republicans.

Obama/Richardson '08. That's my winning ticket.

Lets face it, Hillary is trying to steal the show, it shows bad character, and if Obama were to lose this election, even as a long time democrat I would not vote for her.

Glad to hear you speak out, as always, Gov. Richardson. You are absolutely right to have been concerned about the roll call, we are!

The Clintons as a pair would not have served this contry well as the "two headed president". Certainly, Sen. Clinton deserves recognition, but she has demanded and had that all along. The need for catharsis is on she and Bill's part. It is over. It is a presidential race and she did not win. Sen. and former Pres. Clinton have turned the primaries into a never ending circus. It is Sen. Obama's nomination to secure the presidency now, with the unity of the Democratic party totally behind nim. Not Bill a weepin' and a wailin' and Hillary cracking the whip, giving subliminal mesages, and keeping old wounds open.

GO OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hillary's campaign demonstrated that she and her word need to be taken with a grain of salt. However, this may be a good time to keep your friends close and your enemies closer.

What this loser should be uneasy about is the fact that all the national polls show a dead heat between Obama and McCain and McCain is rising.

Democrats will regret that Hillary was not the nominee. Even though she got more votes.....

Richardson is an idiot.

Bill Clinton appointed him to a powerful position in his cabinet. Bill Clinton even went to the Super Bowl with him prior to the New Mexico primary.

In return, Bill Richardson decides to endorse Obama. That is definitely an act of betrayal. Sure, he has the right to endorse whoever he wants. However, Richardson needs to learn some morals; the decision he made was unethical.

When someone does something nice to you, you return their kindness. That is what Bill Richardson should have done.

And I'm glad Bill Richardson is going to help Clinton retire her debt. It's the least he could do for his actions. He owes a LOT to Clinton. I am not going to condone his actions until he atones for them.

He even had the nerve to call Clinton a “long-time friend” who “ran a great race.” I find that incredibly patronizing. Also, he should issue an apology to the Clintons rather than just say "The Clintons should get over this."

Urrghh... Bill Richardson. Why did Bill Clinton even appoint this traitor to his cabinet in the first place...

It doesn't matter whether you're a Clinton or an Obama supporter, take Bill Richardson's actions into an impartial perspective and realize his decision was unethical.

Why would anybody care what Richardson has to say.
He is nothing but a political opportunist.
I hope Hillary Clinton will pick up more delegates at the convention and throw a spanner into the planned coronation of the chosen one.

Does anyone really care what Richardson thinks? His creditability, along with Pelosi, Dean, and Reed is pretty much flushed down the toilet.

Well I am still uneasy!!!!

What this means is that the people are still not being heard. It is all about the Democratic party and not what a majority of people want. THIS IS WRONG !!!!!!

Richardson is Judas

let the super delegates THE WISE ONES....have there final say it is never too late TO tell the american people THEY HAVE CHOSEN THE WRONG CANDIDATE.. LEADERSHIP WE CAN BELIEVE IN DESERVES DISCRETION////

What?
He mentions that Hillary and hime are long friends?
friends don't stab you in the back, I know I don't want Richardson as my friend. He is just jealous he didn't get far on the primaries as she did!

Thank youfor your hypocratical comment Juda's.

What is it about the Obama Campaign and the DNC leaders that are so afraid of Senator Clinton? afraid that actualy she would become our nominee and we really would have a candidate worth voting for?

I feel uneasy about Hillary's name being put up for nomination.........because the Clintons cannot be trusted....itt's too bad Barack was " between a rock and a hard place".... I'll be glad when this convention is history.

Govenor Richardson should also receive Some Special Recognition as a Historic Hispanic Candidate .

obama goes down in the polls, the super delegates have buyers remorse. ummm i wonder

Who made this clown the chairman of the party. Who is he that whatever is done must be done so that he is not comfortable. Oh btw I don't hear your name bandied about as a VP candidate, so go back into your hole. It is the mentality of people like yourself that is putting a democratic victory at risk in november. But until bo realizes it and he will after its over...you are best thing JM has.
You Quit the race, nor did you get close to 18 million votes. Clinton had the guts to go all the way, when you stop being a quitter...you may be able to speak with some authority, obtw you'll find your lips on bo's hind.

He's said it exactly, until she just gives in, he's all for a slanted process. Whether you like it or not Obama has not clinched the nomination. He did not clinch it and there were no more contests. If all of her delegates vote for her, and all of his vote for him, the Superdelegates are still deciding the race based on their numbers. Then if any of those feel that Obama's shift since the primary, and the fact that polls show him in great danger of losing, they could still vote for Clinton and she'd be the nominee, right and proper.

But this campaign to arrange its outcome started months ago. It was always in the plans to have Barack Obama as the candidate. That plan at the DNC level started last year folks. And the rest was all a facade. He's a seriously flawed candidate and it is shameful the way they lie, like Richardson here, about Obama being the nominee. Clinton suspending her campaign after the contests are over is always referred to as she quit. Well, yeah, she didn't have to do anything more except get to Denver. If you aren't actually going to abide by the process anyway, then don't waste our votes on election day.

And finally it is easy to tell how Obama got as many delegates as he did, they gamed the system. He lost the primary here in Texas to Clinton by a respectable number (as she beat in in Ohio too), but Obama didn't play that game, he decided to try and split the vote with the caucuses. His people apparently have the luxury to spend all day voting. We had to go out twice, and in Texas the next day our children had state tests. We got home at 11pm because we were absolutely going to be there. I have asked many who voted for Clinton if they went back to caucus, and they said they couldn't because of work, family, or other. They had already gone out to vote. Some didn't know at all.

So let your precious Presumptive Nominee tell you lies, sweet little lies, about how he's about changing washington. He's a slick rick from Chicago who has dealt you the same cards he dealt Alice Palmer when he quietly got her off the ballot too.

Judas

Every single time I see or hear Hillary Clinton, I feel like a
snake has just crawled across my foot.

Perhaps I am in the minority, but it seems really stupid for me to transfer my initial vote or support to another candidate...unless I fully believe in that candidate.

If I don't believe in the other candidate, then there's no way I'm going to support them.

I don't look at elections as which PARTY must win, and if I did, I would feel like nothing more than a sheep blindly following the flock! I know millions will disagree with me, but in doing so, I also believe those with the 'flock' mentality are one of the root causes why we place ineffective people into office.

Just look at our current situation; We have chosen a 71 year old Republican and the least experienced and least known Democrat to be our next president...hecka of a job PEOPLE!!

I look at them in terms of placing the best person in the office, and you know what, there is absolutely nothing wrong with voting for 'none of the above' when candidates are not qualified.

This process of Clinton, or any politician, requesting their supporters to now support the previous arch-rival...is nothing more than political posturing.

The DNC or Obambi doesn't own the vote for Hillary, even Hillary doesn't own those vote. The people OWN THEIR VOTES. The DNC has broken their own rules to shore up Obambi, I think y'all gonna pay dearly in November.

Now can the democratic party finally get to the main task at hand which is to defeat John McCain!

thank you richard for your surpport of obama. without that support obama will not have made it now

Gov. Richardson knows the devious Clintons and their devious
tactics. I think everyone but the Hillary supporters worried.
I have a question- did she pay those average citizens who had businesses that she skipped town without paying?

RIchardson will eventually have to pay for his betrayal.

THERE IS NOTHING WORSE THAN A TRATIOR.
I MAY NOT VOTE FOR EITHER FOR PRESIDENT, ALTHOUGH I WILL VOTE FOR OTHER PEOPLE ON THE BALLOT.
I, A LIFEFONG DEMOCRAT WILL DEFINITELY NOT VOTE FOR OBAMA.
I AM NO LONGER A DEMOCRAT.

.

The Clintons need to realize that they are making more enemies than supporters by pushing this. We are not stupid and know she could control this. We will also remember, so she had better not try any inferred negatives to Obama or anything that smacks of her being better and his nomination being "given" to him.

Richardson-->

One word only.............................traitor. He got his start from the Clintons and when it was not convenient he "decided" to turn the other way. I have heard he is on the short list for V.P. if Obama decides to do so and pick him as his V.P. then God help us.

I was extremely angry when Richardson endorsed Obama – I still am. Is there any possibility that the delegates might change their minds at the last minute and nominate Hillary? How wonderful it would be. I am sure that HILLARY would be the best President by far. Howver, although I am a Canadian citizen, I have watched the primaries very closely and came to the conclusion that men, especially those in the media, are just not ready for a woman Presient. SHAME ON YOU.

I am a little uneasy about Bill Richardson....

Wow, this makes my day – Bill Richardson is comfortable with Hillary Clinton placing her name in nomination.

Let's see, just how far did Bill Richardson go in his bid for the nomination? That's what I thought.

CNN searches the globe for anyone with a negative opinion of Hillary Clinton. CNN – in a fight with MSNBC for the worst in cable news.

Bill Richardson for Vice President. Foreign policy experience. Energy experience. Congressional Experience. Executive experience. He was the best Democrat in the race. Bring him to the ticket.

The party is not even close to be united.... and Richardson has helped to write the book,on "how to loose the elections", good job!
I still hope that somehow Democrats will pull off the win, but the narrow minded crowd seems to go with who will appeal more to be the candidate, not who proposes sound proposals, and wants to motivate the rest of us to carry on and work!
One person can't do the job, we all have to contribute, but one person can create really bad policies that will constrain any chances to rebuild the mess we are in at the moment!

I am dissapointed that Gov. Richardson has not shaved yet. Don't get me wrong I like the beard, have one myself but hen I'm not running for VP. I guess he's not either. Oh well I trust Obama to pick a good one.

Who cares what this shallow fool thinks!?! I'm sure the Clintons aren't losing any sleep about keeping him comfortable.

I wouldn't vote for Obama if he were the last man on Earth.

we Dems are SOOOO NOT united. Obama is a farce.

Gov. Richardson, I agree, I DON'T TRUST THE CLINTONS bottom line.

Everything they do is geared and focus on their own selfish political ambitions. There is NOTHING the Clintons do that is not strategically calculated. The Clintons are the "masters" of deceit and lies, they've been dishing it out for so long, it's become a part of them. The ugly part, I'm sorry to say.

I DON'T put anything past both Hillary and Bill, especially Bill at this point. I wouldn't let either of them close to the White House or any other house for that matter.

Oh brother, the only thing worst than sore losers are sore winners – the Obama people keep demonstrating that there are quite a few of the latter in their ranks. You won – now get over it and get to work!

OBAMA RICHARDSON 2008!!!!!!!

Richardson is an honest decent man who was attacked unfairly because of his decision to endorse Senator Obama. He stood up for who he believed would be the best candidate. It is his right to do so without being demonized. Out of respect for the Clintons, he spoke to hillary first not wanting to make enemies of the Clintons. Richard wanted a positive campaign but when Hillary went negative he wanted no parts of it. He should feel uneasy about the roll call because there may be a trick up the Clinton's sleeves. Richardson knows them well.

Richardson is a turn coat looking to cash in. Obama is offering appeasement to clinton. I have never supported Obama and will not vote at all for the first time in 42 years.

The credential committee sealed that for me when they abandoned the popular vote and drank the obama kool-aid

The "dynasty" was not the point. The point was that Clinton received as many votes as Obama, and were it not for the Michigan/Florida fiasco, and Dean's bullying of the superdels to get them to support Obama, SHE would be the nominee. And after last night's interesting little tete a tete in California, I hope people can see why we are concerned about him. McCain had all the slick answers that the evangelicals wanted to hear, and Obama hedged and didn't really answer several questions. If that happens in a debate, I'm afraid that McCain will actually convince this country that he can win, despite his obvious memory problems, flawed policies, and adherence to Bush. Just don't say we didn't warn you.

Obam needs Hillary on the ticket, and he needs her now.

Richardson should of said was a long time friend. personally i think his career as a politician is over. who, including obama can trust him now
once a man sells his soul he becomes untrustworthy

I couldn't care less what Richardson thinks. He shifts his positions and his allegiancies with the political breezes. The convention isn't one of his responsibilities. In fact, I'm pretty sure nothing outside the borders of New Mexico are any of his business now that the Democratic Party has absolutely, positively rejected him as a national figure.

CNN let one of their reporters compare this to Jesus/Judas?

Jeeeeeez. (us)

Gov. Richardson is a great and loyal Democrat- and American. He ran a good campaign and his endorsement was appreciated and honorable. I have a new respect for him and I hope he holds a high position in the Obama Cabinet.
This thing with Hillary will be ok- I was concerned at first after reading some of the so-called pumA blogs- but I believe the majority of those are republicans who are so good at hateful, non-productive chaos.

Richardson is the scum of the earth, now he's trying to be chummy
with the Clinton's again because he Know's OBAMA IS GOING TO LOOSE. Weather people want to accept the fact, the Clintons are still
VERY POWERFUL people.

All I can say is I hope he is NOT the choice for VP. He is the last one who should be considered.

This man is full of hot air.

with friends like richardson a person doe not need enemies. If Clinton pledge her delegates to Obama it will not change anything. Obama did not nor has not won anything in his life. Check him out. He has used his color to get where he is at. No one else did it but him. He is a coward in any since of the word. He hides behind his color and uses it for all the wrong reasons. I want to know what the man thinks I do not want to know what his color thinks.

Hear that PUMA?

She's going to hand you all over to Obama for 15 more minutes of fame.

bill please go home and care for your state

Richardson will always be a Judas in my eyes..I'll bet he was uneasy, as the race was close enough to be a toss up. With Obama still in a close race with McCain in what should have been a landslide, Clinton support is astronomical. I wish the superdelegates would have second thoughts, but alas it appears they would rather lose the election. I will still write Hillary on my ballot in November, it is my vote and I will cast it with a clear conscience.

I think that having Mrs.Clinton's name placed in nomination shows what wisdom and care Senator Obama has. I also believe that Senator Clinton will have a high ranking place in Obama's administration. OBAMA 08

You should feel uneasy, you stabbed Hillary in the back. You should worry for if she does get the nomination where does that leave all you two faced punks. Go back where you came from Richardson, and all you other two faced-so call friends, she don't need you around.

Go Hillary for President
Never vote for Obama, and all you Obama supporters can call it want you want. Obama is not for me and not even forcing Hillary to support him will that change anything.

Richardson for VP !

Why is CNN giving Richardson some attention? Hes pathetic

Juda, we all know you very well! Let´s go and you and the Obama people are going to lose without Senator Clinton!

We are asking that Hillary Clinton NOT pledge her delegates to Obama. If she does, this would be captulating to the oppressively sexist media conglomerates that undermined and hijacked her chances & to the Democratic party honchos that colluded in the rock star projection of Obama while betraying Clinton as Mr. Richardson and so many others did. Hillary Clinton needs to stand her ground, keep her delegates and honor her 18 million supporters. It would be her "moral failing" if she caved.

I love this guy! Too bad he is not the VP pick for Obama. What a team they would make!

This guys a lap dog nobody wants.

Richardson you are a two face hipocrit. You turn your back to a friend 'you did betray the Clintons' and to me that shows us that you are the one not to be trusted. Go home and shut up. Who cares what a trader has to say about anything. I hope Hillary gets the nominee and then you two faced punks can go home. Who needs you. Go Hillary. She has every right to keep her delegates and expect the rest to follow and get the nomination. Who does Obama think he is anyway, I think of him as a loser.

Who cares what Richardson is comfortable with? Point black Richardson is the most current example of an ineffective Super Delegate system by his choice of going against the popular vote in his state. Madame Speaker has been talking about how the Super Delegates job is the represent the voice of the popular vote of the people in their states, but Richardson is walking talking proof this system is flawed. I would never vote for him as a VP, and point blank, Richardson and Obama supporters need to get over the fact that Clinton is not responsible for what her Democrat supporters do, if she were then we would all be for Obama and that is far from the case as websites like Clintons 4 McCain and Dems 4 McCain just to name a few prove. Point blank the vote did not reflect the full voice of the people and if Clinton is not on that ticket then me, many people I know here in FL, and many other Dems will not vote for Obama. We will just not vote or vote for McCain.

That is because you are a traitor Richardson and you know what it is like to turn your back on people. How can you even face Clinton after your slime attacks. I hope you are done in New Mexico – they deserve so much better!!!

Looks like there may be a 'larger picture' plan in the works. We'll just have to stay tuned.

I hope she tries to steal the super delegates and win the nomination. Otherwise McCain will win in a landslide.

See, I told you it's a fixed deal.

They just think that America is dumb enough that they can throw her name on the ballot and the whole world will come together.

It's simply more pandering and pointless rhetoric.

Why is the Judas out of his cage? WHY is he speaking at the convention?!?!?! When i heard that, i really started to believe John Mccain could seriously win this election. the dems are throwing it away for this bumbling, overrated, treacherous fool. tragic.

Richardson believes by forcing the delegates on obama is going to fix the problem. that is very democratic. still 18 million votes don’t count.

Bill Richardson is a turncoat!!!!!!! He thought maybe he would
be Vice president. I do not think any of Hillary Clinton supporters
would ever vote for him on the ticket.

As a former Democrat, FOR THE FIRST TIME IN MY ADULT
LIFE, I WILL VOTE FOR A REPUBLICAN.

JOHN MC CAIN

Thats what he was uneasy about???

I think he should actually be uneasy about the fact that Obama has NO experience to be Governing our Nation... That seems like a valid concern...

The Clintons do think they have a dynasty and deserve the crown. The sense of entitlement, much like McCain feels now (after two losses to Bushy) are disgusting.

LET RICHARDSON GET OVER IT. ITS ALL OVER FOR OBAMA UNLESS HE PICKS HILLARY CLINTON FOR HIS RUNNING MATE. HOW ELSE WOULD HE BE ABLE TO UNITE THE 2 FACTIONS IN THE DEMOCRAT PARTY AND HOW GREAT A GESTURE AFTER THEY BOTH RAN A HARD AND VETTED RACE. THE REAL DREAM TEAM. COME ON OBAMA DO THE RIGH THING AND UNITE EVERYONE. WHAT AN EXCITING MOMENT AND THEN HE CAN SHOW THAT NO MATTER HE CAN UNITE AND GO FORWARD TO VICTORY. WAITING IN OHIO FOR HIS DECISION.

At what point does it stop being about the clintons and the focus returns to our great country, I voted for her in the primaries, but isn't that history already? It's starting to look narcisisstic...and it worries me

Why do you keep reminding us of this failed politician?

I can't believe it, a betrayal to Jesus, LOL!!! So what, my boy and his "Glory Roman Empire" conspired with Gov. Richardson to overthrow Hillary??? LOL!!!!!!!!

LOL!!!!!!!

I bet Richardson and Obama and ever one else is still "UNEASY" about this. The Clintons own this convention. I hope the superdelgates switch before it is to late. Bill Clinton greatest president ever. Hillary 08, if not McCain 08, Hillary '12

They are also doing a joint rally for Obama today! Looks like healing has taken place here!!

Richardson responded to Carville’s criticisms by saying that Carville and other Clinton supporters believe they are a “dynasty” and that they were “clinging to the throne.”

Whew! Exactly – he called it correct with that one. thank you Bill! Glad they got over it.

Look at this picture of Richardson. Would you buy a used car from that face???

Hillary Clinton should be grateful for having both Obama and Richardson helping her with her campaign debt. Just remember that they don't have to. I know I wouldn't. If she and her sore loser supporters couldn't understand that, then Hillary should pay off her own debt out of her own pocket like everyone else in this failed economy.

I will be utterly disappointed and dismayed if this results in the Democrats snatching defeat from the jaws of victory in November.

He was a little uneasy because this was the first time in his adult life he realized Hillary was the better candidate.

It seems dubious that Hillary supporters will feel relief even though Hillary views this as a catharsis. I think she is oversimplifying the issue.

Clinton created a monster and now everyone has to deal with it.

Obama/ Richardson 08'!!!

Mr. Richardson was “uneasy” because he thought that his betrayal of Mrs. Clinton would not have the intended effect. But there is no need to worry because the O-DNC has already crowned Mr. Obama king. Sadly for Mr. Richardson, he will soon find himself out in the cold no matter how this election plays out.

Richardson has every reason to be uneasy about adding Hillary to the roll call. Remeber the the vote was close BEFORE Florida and Michigan were allowed to count ALL of their votes. When the voting rollcall takes place, it will be by alphabetical order. And when you go in that order Hillary will mount a large lead against Obama which may make the super delegates question their support for Obama.

In the end Hillary may walk away with the nomination.

If I were Rishardson [ ALIAS JUDAS] I would be afraid to be in the same room with the Clintons. I figured he was offered the V.P. slot.

Richardson has reason to be uneasy bout the roll call. He knows the Clinton's, too well!

Why does Senator Obama have to appease Senator Clinton? She lost, she did not win, she lost. The media coverage did not lose the election for her, the African-American vote, did not cause her to lose. It was Senator Clinton herself.

She thought she was entitled to the nomination. She lost to someone who was better organized and had a better message.

Time for her and her supporters to MOVE ON. Al Gore has, Jerry Ford did, and so did other who have tried and lost.

I have much respect for you Gov. Richardson.

Totally agree with Richardson. Anyone with a clear mind saw what the Clintons were doing. After everything Bill Clinton put Hillary through during all those years of running around on her, to top it off, he ruined her campaign for her. He went dirty and the American public was smart enough to figure it out. And the way the Clinton camp treated Richardson after his endorsement of Obama just helped prove he was right about them all along.

the whole nation should be at uneasy when the clintons are around and want to take center stage after Obama won fair and square,

remember these are the clintons, they FEEL ENTITLED, they believe they are to rule this nation.

I am tired of them and yes Richardson is right, the supporters are clinging to their queen and king like billy boo and hillary cling to their throne and dynasty..

Shame on the clintons

I hope Richardson is right.

You know her as well as anyone. So you should still be nervous because you know you can't trust the Clinton's. We'll see. Personally, I think she's deranged so I'm not optimistic.

Obama & Richardson 08 and 12

Le't see if she pledges her delegates to Obama.

Her vindictivenss, Richardson knows about that, may yet have one more bite left in it.

Let's PLEASE end this nightmare!

I won't believe the transfer, until I see it.

Gee...I feel so much better knowing Richardson is okay with it.
What a piece of work.

Well, he is right. They do think they are a dynasty. Dynasties, tough, are replaced. Think Tudor, Stuart, Bourbon, etc. All were replaced or fell in disgrace
