I'm calling him unelectable because he WILL get creamed against McCain. HIs resume is pretty much blank - at least compared to anyone else who has run for office.

Not only does he have no foreign policy experience, no military experience, no executive experience, no large policy experience, no federal government experience (after all he's hardly even bothered to show up for his half term in the Senate)He's been branded the "most liberal" senator of all, has the Kennedy's and moveon endorsements , something then that doesn't exactly help him win over those states Gore and Kerry lost - at least if history has any weight.

But then if you're routing for Rove you already know this and have been giggling away gleefully.

He doesn't have a prayer against McCain. Latest polls show by far that Americans trust McCain over Obama on both Iraq and the economy. Whereas they trust HRC a full 10 points more than McCain on the economy.

Why does the left do this to itself. This woman is the only hope of both the Party and the country.

I don't think so. I don't know ANYONE voting for him that isn't working for his campaign, for CNN, or is a Republican.

Texas has open primaries and all Texas newspapers are reporting that record Republicans are going to vote in the Dem primary for Obama with no intention of voting for him in November. In otherwords the persons who have long suspected that Republicans were trying to MAKE him the nominee have probably been correct.

That doesn't bode well for him in November if he does (God forbid) become the Dem nominee.

The little town where I'm from you won't find many Democrats there anymore. Near everyone is a Republican except for some older people like my folks were and their friends.

Yet every single Republican we know is intending to vote in the Democratic primary just to make Obama the nominee. Not one of them intends to vote for him in November and near all of them all happy to put up this "newbie" that they know they can tear down.

I understood the superdelegates were put in place exactly to counter them from doing exactly what they are doing. It's amazing that black people and white liberals would even WANT to stop the superdelegates from doing what they thought was in the best electorate interest of the party. I guess 8 years of George W. Bush mostly with a Republican Congress wasn't so bad for them after all.

That's exactly where I am too. It's where my mother is. Where my best friend is. Where her grandparents are. All of us lifelong Dems too.

What most bothers me about Obama is he HAS to know that he can't beat McCain. Anyone with an ounce of objectivity can see that. But he goes forth anyway and has used his campaign to block the candidate we had that DID have a decent chance at beating him. That just screams to me of someone interested in promoting his own best interests and not those of the people. And it seems to me he could have used all of that money to somehow help the people he was promising change to instead of real solutions. For years on end.

Unfortunately the Obamateur's history in entirety reeks of self-serving political expedience as well. I don't need to cite it; we're all familiar with Rezko, abandoned housing projects, Excelon ... For practical purposes for the past 3.5 years Illinois has been left with only ONE representative too.

In consideration of all this and more I am unable to find anything, anywhere that could possibly leave intelligent people with any measure of faith in the Obamateur's grand promises of "CHANGE" . Now if he couldn't deliver change on a micro level in a small section of Chicago, how on earth would he pull the country out of our waist deep with a split Congress and quite possibly a Republican one? If he was so able to "bring people together" his history in both the state and federal senate's show no sign of it whatsoever.

They have offered every insult and slur imaginable against both Mrs. Clinton and her better reasoned supporters by bot the genuine Obama supporters and their Republican allies has also been uninspiring. To be kind about it..

Since we know McCain is going to clean the Obamateur's clock the other side of the coin few persons have talked about is that it will leave a HUGE windfall of ever-growing amounts of money for the GOP to sweep the other elections with. Not to mention 3 retiring Supreme Court Justices. The judicial branches from the very top to bottom will then be solidly rightwing.

So after this I don't think there will be much of a Democratic party in 2012. Certainly won't be able to raise money after this debacle. Who, in the name of abandoned logic, in their right mind would donate to a Democratic election now after watching them do (yet again) what they do best: snatch defeat from the jaws of victory.

I am so disgusted words fail me.

I spent this afternoon block-walking door to door for Barack Obama here in Austin, Texas. I would say that the Obama supporters outnumbered the Hillary supporters 7-3.

On anecdotals I believe you on this one. Austin is a univeristy town and the only section of Texas that has liberals for all practical purposes.

The problem is it's a microspec, an anamoly, of the Texas political climate rather than being representative of it.

If you were from Texas or had spent any real time there you'd know that. Thus, that's the problem with letting internet "roots" in Vermont pick your candidate and exactly why the superdelegates DO and SHOULD interject reason into the matter.
