obama is not electable in the big states. this is a fact. he can not beat mccain in the big states that hillary won and too many of clinto supporters will vote for mccain whereas the majority of obama supporters will vote for hillary and not mccain. so whose voters will go to mccain in bigger numbers? clintons. this means that if the super d’s pick clinton she has better chance at becoming president than obama and if oabam is the nominee he will lose to mccain because he will lose middle class blue color white women older folks vets etc. yes people get used to it. obama will not become the president and in fact will lose by big numbers. then the dnc can blame themselves and the obama supporters can continue to blame the white folks. obama has too many skeletons that are just now coming out of the closet. things will only get worse for him. i just love it though when i hear all of these political joksters telling america how the superdelegates that they HAVE to vote for obama. i think that thses obama supporters better watch what they say because the superdelegates might get bitter and cast their vote to hillary.

If they GIVE Hillary the nomination which would not be democratic; I will FOREVER vote Republican no matter who runs.

The Clintons are the most corrupt people ever. At least, McCain is a war hero. Obama has earned the nomination at great cost. He would make a great President……..

The democratic party is in one big mess that Al Gore and Howard Dean (and even Oprah) combined could not ever fix. The situation is simply hopelessly dreadful. Who would have thought that the once pace-setting Democrats have devolved into an overly ambitious group of power-hungry traditional politicians? With the ways that the poor dems are slugging it out, it seems that McCain would simply be basking under the sun, or better yet, placidly strolling in Central Park come November. America awaits for its next Republican president!

There is a very simple theory about power and corruption:
Power attracts corruption & The longer the same power structure prevails the greater is the probability for corruption.
Does it not worry you that you are about to select the WIFE of a former president as a presidential candidate? (Have you not learned anything after selecting the SON of a former president as a president?)
In Europe this possibility for electing another Clinton is seen as a worrying sign of increasing potential for corruption & US’s inability to overcome its current economical and credibility crisis (in the eyes of other nations).

Obama is not as good without telepromtor or script.

Obama is a rookie.

Clinton is a pro!

Superdelegates act as a check to keep unelectables from being nominated. Given Obama’s sentiments, and seeing the company he keeps, is he really electable?

Way to go Hillary!! You now have the popular vote of course counting MI and FL, they are part of our country after all. It is un-American not to count them, Obama backers can say what ever they want but the truth is that people did vote. The Democratic Party won’t seat them because they are in the tank for Obama. But they count in the minds of the American majority they count.

First off While McCain is no saint he certainly does not have the dirty Laundry that Obama has not even close. My proof of this is in the Democratic and Liberal media smear attempts already tried by the New York Times. Which had to invent a sex scandal in order to sling mud in his direction. His record with Foreign and Domestic issues far exceeds Obama and Clinton combined. By sheer qualifications he IS the more qualified candidate. Also his Loyalty to his question is absolutely bullet proof. That absolutely cannot be said about Obama and 90% of your liberals period. Most of which hate the very country they live in.

Only a political scientist cares about this contest any more. They are both so damaged that they make Senator McCain look presidential.

I just have a quick comment about Hillary Clinton’s victory in Pennsylvania… Congratulations! It is actually funny how Sen. Clinton affectively made herself look like “everyday people”, and not only that, appear to be the underdog in a state she was almost GUARANTEED to win anyway! A masterful DECEPTION on her part! But overall I have had to admit that this contest has been good for the dems. I believe dealing with all of the questions about Barrack now will ultimately be an advantage to his campaign in the general election. After withstanding the onslaught of the Clinton Machine and his own personal fumbles, he will be a very strong candidate, in the fall, easily sweeping McCain! But now it is time for the truth to settle in for the Clintion camp… Hillary has NO legitimate path to the nomination and it is time for her to join the Obama team! It saddens me to see hard-working Americans (Who Have Been TRICKED Into Believing Hillary Can Win) donate so much money to a dead end campaign. Hillary should be honest with herself, truthful with her supporters, stop wasting their money and stop wasting our time!

Obama’s campaign came from behind, trailing by 20%, and narrowed that to a 10% deficit. That’s pretty remarkable. The Clinton’s need to remeber that Hillary still trails in overall votes and committed delegates.

Wonders never cease from those who vote for Hillary Clinton. According to the pundits, the demographics of her base are the middle class and blue collar Americans. How can a middle class or blue collar identify with the other half of a couple who make $109 million in as short time needed to say Monica Lewinsky? And when she gets emotional about knowing how middle America feels because her mother lives with her, who are these Americans who believe that a $109 million-income couple know what it’s like to make ends meet, work your tail off to keep your job, worry about your house, car payments, insurance and everything else?

Democrats say that the middle class are left behind in the Bush economy. Obviously, they’re also also left behind in the common sense department. But then anyway, common sense has never been common.

Why can’t Billary close the gap? With over 35 years experience, surely you should be able to regain the once 1st place you held. I don’t buy that weak line about you raising a few million in the past 24 hours, that’s a bait to get more donations, sleeze ball.

The truth is that Obama’s money comes from average people… HILLARY’S money has come
from BIG donors who have already reached their limit. NOW she’s begging for money from
average people. It’s so bizarre to call Obama elitist. Hillary has been living in a bubble for about 25 years,and she still claims to understand the blue collar workers. What a joke! I can’t believe that people are naive enough to actually believe her. GO OBAMA!

Hillary Clinton’s wins are just a facade. She ONLY wins in states with significant Jewish populations. And the Jews have made it very clear that they do NOT support, or even like, Sen. Obama. She cannot win a general election with John McCain, because he is the top choice of the Jews and Israel, and he will get a large chunk of their vote in the fall, thus dooming the Democrats to another loss. If the nomination is stolen from Sen. Obama and given to her, black voters will stay home, so will young voters. Independent voters will vote for McCain, so will blue-collar white male voters. There is no way she can win in November with white democrats and half the Jewish constituency.

I don’t consider a 10% lead a decisive lead. I also think it is very sad and certainly a sign of our political times that super delegates may feel they have the right to over ride the majority of voters. Who ever came up with the super delegate system should not be part of our government. When are the Clinton supporters going to start recognizing the lies that the Clinton’s are continually involved in. Talk about credibility and character. I agree with the last comment. Where is this huge lead from her grandpa’s home state.

I can’t believe that there are so many people out there who wants anothr Clinton in the Whitehouse along with the same immoral, lying, cheating past resident. WHAT’S WRONG WITH THIS COUNTRY???? She talks the talk very well, but why doesn’t Obama ask her what national secrets she’s going to sell to China as her husband did? She is absolutely disgusting
