Oh, yah...caucus states...diss the caucus states. IF Hillary had paid attention to those small caucus states, she would have probably won.
Axelrod and crew "out thunk" Penn, Ickes and crew...

If Hill had won in the caucus states, she would be lauding their excellence. Hillary and crew were complacent in the nomination and flat got beat early. It wasn't until she began playing the "big ole press is so mean to little ole woman me" that she got the women all fired up...and until it looked like a black guy might win and people ran out to vote.
How the public rolls is so funny.

"Senator Clinton has run an outstanding race, she is an outstanding public servant,” Obama said. Yes she has been working hard even when you were in college taking crack cocaine. She has been working hard when you were sitting in your church listening to "hate" sermons. America has lost one of the best opportunities to heal and bring about "real" change. Yes change will come with OBAMA but it will not be exactly what everyone is thinking will happen. It will be a grave disappointment to the thousands of blacks that supported him when they seen they fought so hard for a man that was not the best choice. I'm not sure where the 17 million Hillary supporters will do not (as she received more than half of the popular vote), but I for one will not and cannot vote for Obama on this ticket.

For the final time. The rules were set out at the begining. Everyone knew how the caucaus system worked. No one complained about it, until the Clinton campaign realized they had a real fight on their hands, beacuse they felt it would not make a difference.

The schedule favored Hillary as many states moved their elections fowarded and that favored a person with better name recognition in a condensed contest. However, it didn't work out and the final blow was when the Clinton campaign had no answer from 2/6 to Pennsylvania. That was your margin of victory right there.

huh?

Regardless, those caucuses will not carrry BO to the House!

hey folks this really isn't about Obama and Clinton. It is about the Dems taking back the White House. Stop making it personal.

Dear new voter,
This is personal, we need a good candidate we feel we can trust.
Would you have us believe hitler would be good as he was shoved down peoples throats too.
Not to mention the fools who voted for bush TWICE!!
Screw the party, I want a competent person, Hillary or McCain will do so much better than the Obombanation.

To HuH

If everyone knew what they knew today back at Super Tuesday we would have a different candidate on the ballot and every Democrat would have voted for her and she would have won by a landslide. Now 17 million people think Obama unfit, so just let's wait for November and see how this turns out. You cannot unite the party because more than half of the Democrats are really unhappy to Obama...the Democrats have just given the election to the Republican Party.

Isn't Obama so gracious to give such nice words about Hillary. Do you think he wants something from her now after he, his supporters and the liberal media have trashed her. What a politician!

ROCK....exactly...if she had learned the caucuses she would have one, but she didn't...if she has more money she would have won, if she had the black support from Babba's run she would have won. You can shoot off any scenario, but it still comes up to the supers. She underestimated

i agree with you new voter i guess they just dont understand how dangerous and wrong it would be to end up with mccain they are two busy fighting over the canidates as if it were a football game i guess the ones fighting like 3 year olds dont really care about the economy the war in iraq the loss of jobs and the real estate mess not to mention the rising price of gas and they want to vote for someone who doesnt give a damm about those things out of spite anger and bitterness because their team lost real smart people real smart

@Anne

So what? At least the tax cuts will become permanent. It'll save me money, maybe you too.

Hey RockBleachers

Now Maine doesn't count, too? Propaganda?

Maine Democratic Party Release

AUGUSTA - Sunday, across the State of Maine, voters weathered the sometimes stormy conditions to attend their local Democratic caucus. With more than 99% of precincts reporting, nearly 45,000 Mainers participated, giving Barack Obama 59%, 40% to Hillary Clinton and 1% remaining uncommitted. It is projected that 15 of Maine's national delegates will go to Obama and 9 to Clinton......The message is clear: Mainers have seen what 8 years of Republican control looks like and they are ready for a change."
Sunday's Democratic turnout exceeded the previous record, set in 2004, by almost 28,000 votes.....the caucus goers who had to drive miles on snowy roads to those who waited patiently in line in freezing temperatures; today we saw the dedication and passion of Maine people. Regardless of who the nominee is, today's results show Maine's devotion to the ideals and values of the Democratic Party."

Follow your leader and understand where we are as a country.

formerhillary?? Who is your leader..You have to follow who ever you have flipped to.
Do not worry your flippy floppy head about who we follow. We are bereft of a leader, we wander aimlessly!
We will vote for John.

Regardless of who the nominee is, today's results show Maine's devotion to the ideals and values of the Democratic Party."

SHEEP!

Hey former Hill Fan grow up she lost fair and square you are not a democrat or you would still support your party.

You are just a bandwagon jumper. The party does not need you and will be fine with or without you.

Barack 08!

I, along with MILLIONS of voters do not trust Obama and WILL NOT VOTE FOR HIM.

ANYONE BUT OBAMA! ANYONE!

Maybe Mike Huckabee can talk some of these people off of the ledge.

But we'll leave HP to stay out on the ledge.

TANKS! I can use the fresh air!

I know there have been democratic nominee fights before for the nomination and the party has had to heal and sometimes the fight has not been resolved until the convention. However, this feels different. Maybe it is the access to the internet, the influence of the media, but something has happened this time and I don't think it can be fixed for a lot of people, at least not enough to salvage the GE. Obama is a weak candidate. I can't believe that the democratic party is nominating someone who has belonged to a church for 20 years which preaches black liberation theology, which is all about black people and how they have been victimized. While some of that is true, at some point in life we all have to quit the blame game. How can we elect a president who participated at any level in this belief. Women are being mistreated all over the world today, and yet we were all told how historical it would be to have a black president, when it would have been just as historical to have a woman as president. Obama has associated with very extreme individuals in Chicago. He is very inexperienced and will have to learn how to transition from a local figure to a national figure. Who is going to be his handler in the WH? He obviously doesn't want Hillary as his VP, even though she has, at the very least, earned that spot and it should be hers to say no to. He isn't the uniter he pretends to be and he is actually a very tough politician. For some altruistic notion, the democrats/independents are about to nominate a candidate who most likely won't win the general election and I think most of the party leaders know it. It gives one a lot to think about.

Any Hillary supporter who will vote for McCain was never really a Hillary supporter in the first place. They were only supporting her because she is a woman.

Obama's policies are very much in line with hers--and McCain is a different animal.

Hillary’s Exit Strategy:

1. Determine how much I loaned my campaign.
2. Determine how much I owe vendors.
3. Bilk die-hard, gullible supporters for more contributions.
4. Recoup my campaign loan.
5. If any funds remain, kick it down to the hard working little people (vendors).
6. Restore my NY reputation with spin, victim cards, and more spin.
7. Save face on the way out by blaming others.

Hillary, the Queen of Spin and a Legend in Her Own Mind!
