Thank you Congressman Miller and the people of North Carolina. You put Senator Obama in the White House. Your dedication, intelligence and optimism will make our country and our world a much better place. Hats off to all of you and to your chosen candidate.­..Barack Obama.

[crossoverwriter]

Go Obama.
We are seeing history being made. Relish every moment. Stay strong and committed.
Repubs, Dems, Independents, old, young, white, black, Asian, working class, upper middle class, Latino, ALL for Obama.
The media's, and the Clinton's attempts to slice and dice the country and get everyone to hate each other is not working.
There is a higher power.
Obama in 08.

It's hard to understand why all of the Super Delegates who states have already had their primaries don't come forward and endorse Obama if the people voted for him.

Virginia is dragging it's feet also and he won in Virginia by 28% over Clinton...­....now one of the Clinton supporters from Virginia changed her endorsement to Obama yesterday.­.....come on Virginia!

Now that he's come to my attention, I've looked at the career of Brad Miller, and really like what I see. He will have a bright future in NC. His proposed bill to restrict predatory lending shows good stewardship.

Did anyone notice the blond pretty woman behind Obama, on the right side, when he gave his speech from Raleigh after winning the NC primary? I couldn't help but notice how nervous she appeared. It turns out that she is Brad Miller's wife! Evidently, she wanted her enthusiasm for Obama to be a personal choice and not an indication of where her husband stood politically. She didn't realize that the tv cameras would all show her so prominently.

[qdog112]

If you are talking about the woman who appears on the right with her hair up, I did notice her slight uneasiness. She was not as enthusiastic as those around her. It's hard to believe she thought the cameras wouldn't pick her up based on her proximity to Barack. If you don't want to be seen, you stand somewhere else.

hey, kennedy: are you lanny the clinton asskisser?

[Anonani]

Slowly but certainly, one delegate at a time!

[JavaCityGal]

Another superdelegate for Obama, from my state:

I wish the rest of the Super Delegates would come out, too, put an end to, once and for all, Hillary's despicable gutter snipping. (Oh what a happy day that will be!) How can anyone, especially the Supers, stomach it anymore? Her essentially saying Obama can't win white voters is yet another divisive lie, doing no one, especially our nominee, any good.

If Hillary doesn't have the grace to bow out this week, those "undecided" Supers need to show some spine, finally, and tell her it's over.

[vippy]

Obama has the broader base and attracts all kinds of people as we see. Just who spreads those
lies about who is voting for whom when one does not give personal information when voting.
Most states don't even require any kind of identification. More people give money to Obama than
Hillary, so who has the broader base??????

[kennedy]

Miller,

You dim wit, Obama won your districts so your suppose to endorse him. How is this a surprise? Enjoy your one minute stupid. What am I saying? You have a lifetime of it.

[the964kid]

Brad Miller, welcome to the team.

[whizkid]

At a certain stage you reach a point of diminishing returns.
If Democrats are now this foolhardy, I'm out.
We had a lock on the White House.

[the964kid]

"If Democrats are now this foolhardy, I'm out."

good riddance.

[clevelandtocali]

Bitter?

[donttasemebro]

I just read throug a few of your posts, whiz. All that bile must be hard on your digestion. Try to elevate the discussion above the sewer every once in a while. Hatred will just give you an ulcer.

[qdog112]

Time to hit that ROCK!

[Sparklez]

Add Congressman Payne to the list of supers who endorsed


Everyday, she will feel the hurt of the superdelegates going to Barack and leaving her

[kennedy]

Only a cult member would say something so insane. Hillary knows this is all politics and SD can change their minds at anytime and they will. So many things can happen in the coming weeks:

Wright goes on national tv and tells the world what a liar Obama is, video surfaces that shows Obama sitting in those pews while Wright curses at whites and America, Larry Sinclair is interviewed on Fox about his affair with Obama, Hannity digs into the Obama and Donald Young connection, Beck digs into the Obama and Rezko BBF for 17 years, Greta digs into the numerous affairs Obama has had over the years and on and on and on and on........­..........­..........­..........­......

Obamas campaign is going down in flames.

[jimmbuck]

what is wrong with you?

nothing bad to say about hillary though so you can breathe a big old sigh of relief. Whew, that was a close one.

Seek help Kennedy, soon.

[vippy]

Rezko is also seen with the Clintons, he made his rounds. So did Reverend Wright when Bill called onto him after his Monica troubles. Bill got a lawsuit deferred until
AFTER the election Paul vs. the 3 Clintons in California. How fair is that. Hillary has
way more baggage than this newcomer Obama. Hillary's grandmother was a
slum lord in her days and she mentions how proud she is of her. Hillary is more like
McCain, old type politics in Washington. We are Clintoned out.

[whizkid]

Yes. He actually won Indiana.
Like the Texas, Nevada, and Washington caucuses.
How dare you racists not support Rev. Obama?

[qdog112]

The crack pipe is calling!

[Chandidevi]

Obama actually won Indiana. The votes were actually switched. Please scroll down this page to see the charts. http://www.bbvforums.org/forums/messages/73/73875.html?1210300379#POST46042

Sure he did and Johnny Depp and I are lovers.

[jimmbuck]

here's ole' kennedy again with some more bitterness. He'll be here all week folks....

[lillay]

I will be doing what all you Obama supporters would be thinking about doing if Clinton wins. I will be abstaining from voting. if Obama wins the nomination. The difference is you all are 1st time voters, so you really wouldn't have been missed. Clinton has the Dem Base vote which will affect Obama's chances tremendously. You may know your math, but don't think very abstractly.

[happyfeelin]

No, us 45 year old 20 time voters will know we don't want more conservative judges on the bench.

You're incorrect my dear...We are doing the math and anyone who is too childish to vote Democrat deserves to face the injustices that they will face if they help the republicans win in November. I know republicans who know the seriousness of this election and have daughters that will lose their right to choose and don't want to have their jobs outsourced or their healthcare at work taken away from them.

You'd better understand what the true Democratic base really is about. They want the candidate who can bring the party together, and at the moment, that is just not Mrs. Clinton. I do hope she becomes part of the solution, but I'm sorry, this is not about Obamania. This is about our rights, and I'm not about to play games with anyone who thinks they can read the country and don't know a damn thing about politics.

She wouldn't have lost North Carolina if she was so favored. There are more whites than blacks in NC and they voted in 3-fold against the republicans in NC.

[stringer]

I'm young.

John McCain was on t.v. today talking about how he would appoint conservative judges who, he was strongly hinting will overturn Roe v. Wade.

Please tell a young voter like me, who you insist is missing the point, what I'm missing? So your plan is not to vote at all, risk a McCain presidency and overturn a woman's right to an abortion? Are you sure you're a Democrat? And I'm not tryig to be mad I'm just asking. I don't get it.

John McCain also wants another 100 Years in Iraq. I won't bore you with my personal stories, since I know many non-young Clinton voters think we young people don't understand anything, but this is far more dangerous of an idea than you realize. People, real people, will die because of it.

Please think again, before you do what you're threatening to do. And, while I respect the overall tone of your post, you might want to talk to some more young people. We know a little more than you might think.

[happyfeelin]

You are one of the most intelligent posters on this blog young lady.

I hope you decide to get into politics because we need future leaders like you.

[whizkid]

What are you missing?
How bout the fact when you were ten years old there was gas in the tank, food on the table and zero dead troops. You may get what you wish for.
Mr. Hopey/Changie loses worse than McGovern.

[kennedy]

Kid you know nothing. Your in a cult surrounded by insanity. You worship a cult GOD and you have given your brain over to him.

You have NO IDEA WHAT IT IS LIKE TO:

GET A JOB

PUT FOOD ON TABLE FOR YOUR FAMILY

WORRY ABOUT LOSING YOUR JOB

CUT BACK ON EVERYTHING SO YOUR FAMILY DOESN'T GO HUNGRY

HAVE TROUBLE PAYING THE MORTGAGE.

LOSE YOUR JOB

LOSE YOUR HEALTH CARE

LOSE YOUR HOUSE

AND TO HAVE PISS ANTS LIKE YOU WHO HAVE NEVER TRULY EARNED OR LOST ANYTHING THAT REALLY MATTERS VOTE FOR NO EXPERIENCED / CULT OBAMA IS SICK.

THAT IS THE REASON THAT THE OLDER PEOPLE GET, THE MORE THEY VOTE FOR HILLARY. WE KNOW LOSERS LIKE OBAMA WHEN WE SEE ONE. WE ARE THE FIRST PEOPLE THAT SAW BUSH FOR THE LYING PIECE OF GARBAGE HE IS.

HILLARY SUPPORTERS FIGHT LIKE HE!! FOR WHAT AND WHO WE BELIEVE IN. AND IT SURE AS HE!! ISN'T YOUR NUT BALL OBAMA.

AND US HILLARY SUPPORTERS WILL MAKE SURE OBAMA THE CULT GOD IS NEVER PRESIDENT. COUNT ON IT CULT. IF THAT MEANS WE HAVE TO VOTE FOR MC CAIN IT IS ON YOUR HEADS.

BY YOU NUTS VOTING FOR OBASNOB YOUR ENSURING A PRESIDENT
MC CAIN. SHAME ON YOU!

[JamieStarr]

Great.

You can share a part of the blame if McCain wins and continues Bush's Iraq and economic policies.


You should be ashamed of yourself.

[jkminwa]

No, I'm a grown-up, with a child whose future is everything to me. If Barack isn't the nominee, then I'll vote for Hillary. What kind of Democrat would sit out an election just because her candidate didn't win? Oh, RIGHT, THAT kind of Democrat.

[Testtubebaby]

BS...you'r­e the kind of Democrat that would reward Bush lite #2 just because she feels she's entitled and power tripping. You can't even count on whom she may or may not put on the courts. She was a Goldwater girl for goodness sakes. Her politics are so in line with Republicans it isn't funny. You can dismiss her coziness with her right winged conspirator Richard Mellon Scaife and cozying up the many other right wingers? Sure, you can and she knows you will forgive her anything. She's has no respect for her supporters and thinks very little of their intellect. Shoot, you’re gonna need independents too, you don't and won't ever have me for a Hillary vote ...now what's the preach for that?

[vippy]

Obama gets his money from the voters. He gets a lot of money, ergo many voters who send in
their measly $ 25. Clinton is lying when she says she attracts more, either they are all broke
or they only have a few who can send her money. So stick with the loser.
