Love that Cliton spin. This is her home state and she
has the Governors state wide political machine.

15 or more or she is toast!

Why can't Bubba SHUT UP!?! Is Hilliary her "own girl" or NOT!!!

He already Won Texas, Hillary!
Obama 98 Delegates, Clinton 95 Delegates! A Win is a Win! Right!

Instead of worrying why Obama can't close the deal, Clinton should concern herself with why she can't deal at all.

reaganfan - In Texas a win is Primary. Caucus is nothing but a joke.

There is no caucus in Nov.

Oh Hillary. i feel sorry for you. If you are such a great candidate why are not ahead in votes or delegates?

Obama never played the race card against Bill or Hillary. But his ENTIRE campaign certainly did behind the scenes.

Obama has never won any big states, and he'll never win them in the G.E. Hillary has won the big states, and she will win them again in November!

The supers know exactly what this means.

It's not about what we can do, it's about what we have done, and what we WILL do.

HILLARY, YES WE WILL!

Hillary's been well known by America for 16 years.
Hillary even has a former president who was very popular as her husband.

That gave her a 25% lead in across the country.

Why has Hillary has lost 30 elections when she had every advantage?

I'm totally with Hillary.

He obviously can't even pay voters in Texas, Ohio and Rhode Island (among others) to vote for him!

If the media were removed from this whole contest Hillary would've won a long while ago; and if the race was financially fair, he would've been left standing.

Does she think she has closed it? I think she needs to remember Bill didn't seal the deal until June 2nd or 3rd! Unbelievable!

Why did they ask her all of those crazy questions? What in the heck is the media up too on the day of the election. I hope Clinton whoops his tail in the Primary Election!!

ill mentioned the memos released from the Obama campaign that support the fact that it was Obama campaign that planned and played the race card all along.

ABC, would you please show those memos? You have intentionally self-censored a lot of bad press for Obama, and a lot of journalists are doing this. Stop being adovcates for Obama, be a journalist with objectivity and integrity.

Wasn't Hillary the inevitable candidate? I remember when she didn't even speak Obama's name. Now that
she is broke and has lost 30 states she believes that HE can't close the deal?

This was Hillary's election to lose and that she did.

OH Marie,

do you feel so trendy voting for the hip guy with no substance. did you even watch the debate and how he stammered. HRC was asked all those type of questions during the past 20 debates and she never stammered. When Obama is given the nomination (because of the backlash the dems would recieve if they gave it to HRC) and when the country begins to spriral downwards than I will send you a thank you note!.

I simply cannot believe that any voter is still falling for Hillary Clinton. She is a devoted liar from day one. She seems to be living in her own 'Hillary in Wonderland' not facing anything in real life no matter what the evidences are. She is a fanatic and I would fear the day she is 'Commander in Chief' - just think in how many wars she could get engaged in according to her claimed 'experience'. God save the world for HRC in the White House.

You heard it hear first. Obama wins in PA. My theory is that many young people with only cell phones are going to vote for Obama. These people are not polled properly and there are more young people voting this time than ever before. Obama 2008!

Money corrupts and Senator Obama has so much money just to throw out garbage at his opponent, it is sad. When it is to his advantage, he has always played the race card. His senate district residents are of his race, his church members are of his race and most voters of his race are for him and his bogus promise
Yes, race has been a big factor in this candidacy, that called REALITY. To say otherwise is the BIG LIE.

Emily

the supers know that primaries only matter when the margins are ginormous... if then even.

She won almost all of the states that she did win...by slim margins comparatively.

There is absolutely no correlation (as much as the Clinton team is trying to say that there is becasue they are selfishly grabbing on to any idea that they can spin)...no correlation between primaries and general elections...

This again is an argument by the Clinton campaign and supporters that is not even close to being true...and the supers predominantly know that.

The only thing that can take this election away is voter fatigue and the republicans using Hillary's green light for the subject not to be about issues.

Hillary has given them permission to talk about all this crap outside of the war destroying us and the economy collapsing and our future standing in the world...and healthcare being the priority...
or the fact that the GWbush/Cheney/McCain view of threatening other countries that don't have nuclear armament with nuclear destruction does not deter them from seeking it...it instigates it.

...we as a party can not argue that those points should be the focus because Hillary needed to take everything down for her "right" to win the Presidency and use those as the only thing she could in her entire campaign that she wasn't losing at.

supers predominantly know all this...so I expect unless she wins by 20 ...they are going to take her down for what she has done to the party and country with this.

hey pa voter... i am a pa voter too... and so you know, i voted for carter, dukakis, clinton, gore and kerry. but i will vote for mccain, if obama steals the dem nomination.

while the media pounded hillary for 16 months, and let obama slide to create a horse race (where does all that campaign money go.. to the media)

obama may be strong enough win the dem nom as the most liberal senator, but not the general...

Barack will be painted quite easily as less than american - wright, rezco, ayers, dohrn, farrakhan, HAMAS in the church bulletin, and the list goes on... That's why Hillary won't quit and why the superdelegates haven't put Barack Over the Top.

If the Clinton campaign says, enough times, that they've been treated unfairly, they really believe that people will buy that argument.

What a bunch of Bill -- I mean Bull -- Ah, same-same!!!

This was Hillary's race to win, from the beginning. But her campaign mismanagement, combined with her outright sense of entitlement and inability to capture a lasting campaign theme until "throw the kitchen sink" has sunk her campaign. She'll go down blaming the media, black voters, small state voters, caucus-goers, etc.

She has no one o blame but herself (and maybe Bubba and Mark Penn)!

Obama 2008 -- Yes, WE CAN!!!

Obama 2008 -- Yes, WE CAN!!!

If Hill is the choice why do so many Americans vote for OBAMA? Hill and Bill is the old dog and we need a new fresh approach OBAMA! As for the race card Bill & Hill and the media all throw that around like it is the main issue but it isnt so please wake up AMERICA before it is to late!!!!

Mary, what is so cool about Obama's fund raising is that it comes from average citizens. These people are giving 10, 20 dollars at a time. This is very different from the other candidates that are running or have already dropped out. People are seeing something genuine in this guy. He's the REAL DEAL. Obama 2008!

Rick the rules are the rules!
The Texas results include both the
primary and the caucus!
Obama won Texas, period!

Rick - The Dood's Right 98-95 is a win.

Scoreboard.

you say focus on the issues, you are young, naive and inexperienced like obama.

For Every Swift Boat ad John Kerry was slammed and sunk by, you’ll find several more in this years General Election Media campaign.

For those who naively think campaigns don’t need to be negative and won’t be negative, look no further than the just the last election.

Or the election just before that one.

It happens in every election, this is part of our democratic process; to battle for differences and principle.

If u think it is dirty now, wait until the Republican Attack Machine gets started…
Again, If u think it is dirty now, wait until the Republican Attack Machine gets started…

Greg
"obama steals the nomination" - lol
"the media was biased against Clinton" -
this is the same media that did not bring up a single Clinton scandal during this entire campaign...and they have long lists...

and if you say the American public knows them...

relly...

can you tell me the details of whitewater? what it means and why it was a controversy?
Vince foster and the subsequent clearing of his office? by hillary's chief of staff?
what do the clintons have to do with Tyson>
do you know who norman Hsu is exactly? do you know the details of the FBI files being removed and the subsequent investigation?

do you know how much Hillary was fined for campaign finance issues? or who this Paul guy is?
do you know the questions that have arisen about her whitewater work? or how much her brother had to return in payments for the pardoning of two criminals?

do you think America knows the details... no they don't.

and the lists go on...and on.

They think that because they were inundated with Monica...that is the extent and the rest are just words they heard mentioned...

remember most of these scandals were before 24 hr cable news.

The media did not do their job ...vetting the candidates all right. It was Clinton whom the population has heard about scandals ages ago but they have no idea of the details.

If Clinton had won the nomination FOx and the RNC held there amunition for the general. they wanted obama out in primary so they had a huge arsenal for the general.

That's the truth on this "media bias" with all of those scandals, investigations, lawsuits, deaths, lies, fines, disbarment, impeachment and purgory...

not one was brought up during this primary...ever.

oh besides a new one her getting caught lying again.

Hills gotta win by +300,000 votes tonight minimum.

And another thing going down is that PA delegate awards are issued similar to the way TX does it.

So ol Hills may win the popular vote tonight but may not net many more delegates than Obama. We could be having some TX action going on tonight.

Why can't SHE close the deal. If she was a substantive candidate, then why is she in the fight of her life for the nomination? If it weren't for her husband she wouldn't even be a senator right now. She's been riding her husband's coat tails ever since he was governor of Arkansas.

Simple: The reason Obama can't close the
deal is that 60 percent of the
nation will NEVER vote for him...

he cant win the big important states and he cant close the deal simply because he doesnt have what it takes. go Hillary! you're our girl!

he cant win the big important states and he cant close the deal simply because he doesnt have what it takes. go Hillary! you're our girl!

How can Hillary claim she is ready to make decisions on day one when she can't run an effective campaign. She has had three major shake-ups and trails in all areas - delegates, number of states, and votes. She and Bill have been through a couple of national campaigns - so experience by itself is not enough. Her campaign leadship is a glimpse of her abilities - so far she trails in all major areas. She has no one to blame but herself - it mismanagement at this simple level.

Frankly, Obama is not qualified
for more than "Legal Assistant"...

Vote Hillary 08!!

The firsr two videos are exactly the same. Aren't they supposed to be different?

How can Obama claim he is ready to make decisions on day one when he runs
a fraudalent , extortionist, racist
campaign??

Vote:
Hillary Clinton!!

Maybe one reason he can't close
is that his personality profile
scares the **** out of people!!!

Ha ha ha!

Hilary is hilarious, and masochistic? lol

Why can't the once INEVITABLE CANDIDATE close the deal? lol

Underdog Barack Obama has done very very well for starting out his campaign 50 points behind the Clinton machine.

The Clintons have 'name recognition', a humongous head start; and they control the Democratic machine all over the country. Yet THE CLINTONS were prevented from 'closing the deal' by Obama's effective grassroots efforts!

Be cool:
Hillary 08!!

Actually HRC, how do you lose a 20pt lead to a guy who is supposedly so wrong for the job? Penn was supposed to be yoru state HRC, you had a 20pt lead goign in and 6 weeks to cement that. You are whining about money, why haven't you raised more. You whine about the eroding lead, why have you not run a better campaign. the majority of Democrates have voted for Obama, why do you continue to insult them? this contest was yours to lose and you did exactly that.

Real leaders answer questions no
matter how dumb or stupid they
think they are!!

Go Hillary!!!

Hillary said that not capturing Bin laden is personal to her.

Interesting.

Why did she Scold Obama so much when he said if we learn what cave bin laden is hiding in, he'd give the order to blow it up?

Obama's abuses of the American
political system when further
examined will land him in jail...

take a deep breath: Vote Hillary 08!!

dl, Hillary has been thoroughly vetted in an multi-million dollar attempt by Ken Starr. She came out fine. Bringing up old, stale junk out of the drawer is a waste of time and wouldn't in the least be persuasive. It is too easily countered. Besides, any good Democrat knows that the Whitewater investigations were a Republican initiative to destroy the effectiveness of the Clinton presidency. Perhaps you are a Republican posing as an Obama supporter trying to fracture our party!

I hope after this loss in Philadelphia obama give another speech about PULLING OUT OF THE RACE. Wouldnt that be grand.

The April 27 NC debate has been cancelled due to Obama's chickening out. He is scheduled to eat a Belgian waffle instead.

black voters voting on race is why Clinton won't win by 20%

Maybe his problem is his his empty
filthy, rhetoric? You think???

“Well I think we are going to stay focused on what voters are focused on.”
does this mean she thinks that voters are focused on race and not issue's?
why does she not answer the question? her husband is hurting her more than she hurts it herself..

dl - where are you copying from?!

I'm a HRC supporter with my eye on the ball - a country in time of turmoil needs a strong leader who can take a position, work toward it, and change course as needed to get to ultimate core success. I've seen HRC do that (most recently with getting Heroes @ Home funded through Defense authorization when the whole bill wouldn't go through)- where's Obama's proof?

I'm a HRC supporter with my eye on the ball - country in times of war and terrorism needs a leader who isn't scared to use our greatest advantage - military strength balanced by powers of persuasion and compromise. HRC stands for that (read again her floor speech on the Iraq force authorization) -- where's Obama's proof?

I'm a HRC supporter with my eye on the ball - this country needs a leader who can win the respect of staunch enemies .. not on the easy stuff, but on the harder issues where compromise is hard. HRC overcame the WH years to work w/colleagues in the Senate and even get Scaife's endorsement -- where's Obama's proof?

(oh and read up - the ? about Iran was in regard to US action is Iran attacked Israel. HRC's comment was that "Iran needs to understand we *could* obliterate them" and that Iran needs to cool its jets ...)

Against the media and all money odds
Hillary Clinton will prevail!!!

May peace prevail on Earth!

totalvotes win says we should change the rules to benefit Hills. And if only we could do this Hillary would WIN!

But the rules are what they are and have been put in place DEMOCRATICALLY by the local party in the different States and Territories.

Everyone knew the rules going in. It was a Delegate Race. Had it not been a delegate race, every Candidate would campaigned in the big cities and abandoned the rest of the country.

Hills is Hopelessly behind because she got out worked and out thought.

Shall we say, She wasn't Ready on DAY ONE.

yes vote hillary and then hide , we are focused on race, i miss-spoke, im a strog person who cried all the time about being bullied, i throw others dirt around and talk about how i love hard ball but i dont want people to talk about my baggage! i have broke more laws than anyone else but other people went to prison in my behalf i show no morals but i have paid to be re-invented at least 3 times and people still dont like me and i still cant tell the truth-vote hillary!!lol

What does Obama have against
Florida and Michigan! Traitor!!!

Hillary Clinton 08!!!

hillary didnt seem to care about it until just now! why is it that hard for people to understand they broke the rules they deal with the punishment - no one would have a problem with this if hillary was ahead in votes! wow

police-
hillary would know and so would her husband! dont throw dirt at obama that clearly belongs to the clintons.

I've got news for her: Earth to Hillary Clinton -- you haven't closed the deal either! Why are all the spinmeisters saying Obama hasn't closed the deal when Hillary in fact is further away, has been further away, in closing the deal for some time.

yes vote for hillary and bill so he can have more power to pull the columbia trade threw!

Keep up the good work Bill. I do not want to see another Clinton in the white house.

the funny thing is why cant she close the deal? she started of ahead in pa!! she is trying to once again mis-lead america into thinking she is on top of things , bosnia and the women who died with no insurence also good examples of this stunt she likes to pull... i want to win so i will twist things and lie till you think i am for you and not just myself!

smart people? mmm if you say so!

Obama is the only candidate that can bring this country together and begin to clean up the huge mess brought on by the bush-league during the last 7.5 years. Do you people realize that for the last 28 years there has been either a bush or a clinton as VP or Pres, 28 YEARS...
Obama 2008!

4 things you say you have on him, wright can be added to the hillary list ayers also add to her list because of pardons to that group that the clintons handed out, then you can add drug traffickers to that list and a list of "gates" and a whole list of lies to that also!!!

It really doesn’t not matter who now wins because of all the fighting, the Dem's have just hand the Rep's the 2008 Presidency again like they always do. No matter how it comes out now which ever Dem (Clinton or Obama)manages to win. The supports will either not vote or will vote Rep .... four more years of BUSH .... McCain (McBush).

First, NYC is NOT Hillary's city! She doesn't live here and didn't even care about our state until she saw a way to get to the Senate through NY. Second, Obama may not be able to "close the deal" (though, since he's at least cut her lead by 75% in just three weeks, I think that's arguable) but she can't even initiate the deal! She's behind in popular votes, she's behind in pledged delegates, she's behind in states won (both primary and caucus), she's behind in EVERY subcategory of superdelegates except DNC/Party leader (he's ahead in Governors, Senators, and House members)! She hasn't even come close to making a deal, let alone closing one! Somebody needs to tell her to move along, go back to serving her "home state" in the Senate while she has the chance, because I, and many other NYers, are tired of her crap and will be working our butts off to make sure she's NOT even re-elected to the Senate.

IGNORANCE? like following behind a woman that lies and miss-leads you every chance she gets and does so knowing that it will come out! if he is such a joke why isnt she winning? why is she working so hard to win a state that clearly she should have been able to win easy?

i dont want her back here either !!

Too Bad Hills is Hopelessly Behind.

The Truth is Hillary lost the nomination in February. Got outworked and out smarted.

keep telling yourself that,
yes she gives "solutions" to american's they are called lies!!
obama didnt take himself away from the people just the media not the same thing!
if hillary was smart she would take bill out of the public eye he isnt helping her and she should stop trash talking it always comes back to bite her!!!

Ha ha ha!

Hilary is hilarious, and masochistic? lol

Why can't the once INEVITABLE CANDIDATE close the deal? lol

Underdog Barack Obama has done very very well for starting out his campaign 50 points behind the Clinton machine.

u know u can't win in November WHEN IT COUNTS THE MOST
with out FLORIDA
and PENNSYLVANIA are identical demographically speaking.
Who is more likely to win FL and all the other big states? That should be the dem nom. If you want the Executive Branch of government that who u choose.

Super dels hang thier hats on Hillary WINING the total vote and the fact that

Barack will be painted quite easily as less than american - wright, rezco, ayers, dohrn, farrakhan, HAMAS in the church bulletin, and the list goes on...

some people believe he is a muslim and traitorous terrorist trojan horse.. scary
That's why Hillary won't quit and why the superdelegates haven't put Barack Over the Top

the draft dodging darth cheney and bush swiftboated a congressional medal of honor winning john kerry,,, the rovian dirty tricks bag is limitless and they can't kill hillary --- her ideas wont die.

snore.

Yes. The dems want to paint Mc Cain as bush, but it wont stick because there is little substance to back it up.

Mc Cain is notorious for making conservatives angry with his democratic views.

This is why he will win the general election. Obama is too far to the left, egro Mc Cain will swoop in and score the independents and a big chunk of the Clinton democrats.

cant win against who?
some people believe he is a muslim and traitorous terrorist trojan horse.. scary
That's why Hillary won't quit and why the superdelegates haven't put Barack Over the Top
hillary wont quit because she is too power hungry to admit she is going to lose! he isnt a terrorist and people with half a brain know this!
putting him over the top? he has more delegates than she does why havent they put her over the top?
my guess is that she has raised money for them and they think if there is any chance for her to win they dont want to get on her bad side she isnt a forgiving type of person!!

Hillary is the most divisive politician in America and is willing to tear apart her party for her own ambitions. This woman is completely self serving and is toxic to the country.

Marcia - Barak Obama knew going in that HRC had strong backing from the party and from democrats nationally -- why did he enter the race and thereby divide the party? Why isn't he the one who's tearing the party apart, and being completely self-serving? He could have waited -- if he wasn't so self-serving.

mccain isnt going to win, lets be real sure he may be liked more than most rep's by dem's but he has said himself he doesnt know economy and he proves it with wanting the war to go till finish- he also doesnt show much leadership even thinking about going on with the war, i have said it before but maybe some didnt see or dont believe we are sitting ducks in iraq bin-laden has not gone away and is not done with us and the longer we stay in iraq the more tired our men are the more men and women we lose the more money we have to borrow and we are less protected at home! all he is doing is waiting it out till we are too tired to be able to give a good fight and run out of money we can borrow from others! the iraq war has at best done what ever its going to do and is now just a risk!!!!

denise,
so your saying that no one should have ran against hillary? that because he did they broke the party? wow thats a bold thought!!!!

Who is more likely to win FL and all the other big states? That should be the dem nom.
what? yes your right lets let florida and pa be the only ones that vote!
you can say what ever you want but he will win...

Hillar Clinton and McCain are agents of the Military Industrial comples which ahev ruined this counrty in the name of profit and conquest. They have betrayed the promise of this country. Why are people still convinced that the same old politics and bigot mentality will solve any of our problems.

The attempt to demonize Obama and play on racial distrust and hatred is a way of preventing people from looking at the issues such as foriegn policy, economic policy and health care policy which really matter. If you examine the issues and the lack of vision for the country displayed by Hillary and McCain you will see that Obama is the best nominee for president. Don't be susceptible to the fear of the republican smear machinery or the racial slurrs and undertones which seeks to further devide us. Don't vote against your own interest simply becauseyour are afraid of change. Vote your conscience.

OBAMA 08!

I am struck by Hillary Clinton's audacity of lies against the Obama campaign. Everybody in their "right" mind knows absolutely that the Clinton campaign started the "mudslinging" because they were fearful that she was going to lose in New Hampshire and she barely escaped. And, now she's "spinning" words yet, again. The poor woman is going around like a clown.

This is the kind double speak that got us into Iraq. It's WMDs, then Sadam was a part of 9-11, then bringing freedom to Iraq, it's defeating terrorism, and on and on.

Hillary is claiming a win in Texas, even though she lost in delegates. A win in Nevada even though she lost delegates. It's the most states, but that didn't hold up. Caucus' shouldn't count, it's popular vote because caucus' don't have many votes, "a win is a win" even though a win below 65% is actually falling short, why can't he close the deal even though Hillary was ahead by 20% or more in the national polls three months ago and blew it.

You're right Hillary, you're old fashoned, we need a real change with new politics.

Why can't she win? This is the biggest joke at all taken directly from the talking heads in the media. Obama has already won more than twice as many states has pledge delegate and popular vote leads she cannot beat. She is total unelectable.

Hillary tactics have been extremely detrimental to the democratic party, and she needs to quit. Whatever reputation her husband had has been ruined by her, and she is single-handedly about to destroy the democratic party. She is a compulsive liar, and has proved is willing to say anything to win. Is that the type of president we need? We have been dealing with lying, self centered presidents for awhile now, we don't need the same old politics. Not to mention someone who claims they can fix the economy, but her campaign is 10 million in the hole. Question, How can she relate to the working class, when she is wealthy? She doesn't care about the middleclass, or poor. She has all of the pac money, and special interest money. Wake up, don't vote for Hillary she is the devil. If she wins, no one will show up in Nov.

Greg, If you do the primary math, you will realize that Clinton doesn't have to worry about the electoral vote.
I will have to admit that after reading all the posts, you are undoubtably the most misinformed contributor.lol
