- zardoz73, on 05/08/2008, -1/+22Forget the remaining states, WV, OR, none of that matters. Now it's all about the undeclared superdelegates. They'll trickle out endorsements over the next couple of weeks, the majority being for Obama. It may take a while, hopefully that trickle will reach critical mass and the floodgates will open one day soon. All of these undeclared superdelegates are ***** things up. I heard Donna Brazil saying she wouldn't choose between Hillary and Barak until the "process is completed". WTF? Lady, you ARE the process. You and your cohorts need to get off the ***** pot and CHOOSE.
- aussiejan, on 05/08/2008, -3/+17It's on but at this point nobody is listening.
- TwoKill, on 05/08/2008, -4/+16Digg just needs a running count of Obama Superdelegates so we can avoid the huffington post spam.
- Mejari, on 05/08/2008, -1/+10I'm from Oregon, and I would be perfectly happy, and in fact ecstatic, if my vote didn't get to count because the supers got off their asses and made Obama's nomination official sometime soon.
- benhollister, on 05/08/2008, -1/+10Counting Michigan and Florida is like having a player on your team suspended, and then after the game is over saying that he shouldn't have been suspended in the first place and trying to count how many points he would have scored.
I'm a registered Dem in Michigan, and I just want this race OVER. - ReidFleming, on 05/08/2008, -1/+8Just for you, then, an AP story of the same: http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5i23h4XqvR0Ph96a ...
- Mejari, on 05/08/2008, -0/+6Stop saying that people who aren't doing what you say are wrong while saying that they think that people who don't do what they say are wrong.
- headzoo, on 05/08/2008, -1/+7Currently Clinton has 10 more super delegates than Obama (And I don't know if that counts the 4 he just picked up). That's the only area where Hillary is ahead. I don't think she will be for long.
- jhails, on 05/08/2008, -1/+7Goodbye Billary! Your 15 minutes is up. You can disappear gracefully or unleash your attack dogs and go nuclear on the party. Either way your toast.
- ReidFleming, on 05/08/2008, -2/+8Isn't that sort of antithetical to the nature of digg? Venting your annoyance of what other people like by arbitrarily burying stories? Kind of jerky if you ask me.
- AndrewDB, on 05/08/2008, -4/+9Go Obama! :]
- Disgod, on 05/08/2008, -5/+10Obama has won, Hillary is just too stupid and vindictive to give up.

- iofthestorm, on 05/08/2008, -0/+5For anyone who's burying him, I think he's happy because it could be the new comment system. If it is, I'm happy too.
- jellygraph, on 05/08/2008, -1/+6Rules are rules and all candidates agreed that M & F would not count (that was, until Hillary needed them to count). Were it the opposite situation, with Barack being the under-dog desperately needing the delegates, you would argue the same, saying that Hillary had never campaigned in either and was not on the ballot for one of them, so that wouldn't have been fair.
- shortysmyname, on 05/08/2008, -1/+4How would you know this? Your profile says you just joined.
- inactive, on 05/08/2008, -0/+3no, it will not get better until after the election.
- Lazydriver, on 05/08/2008, -0/+3And then two years later, we'll be talking about how Obama tried to change but the uneducated masses voted for corrupt ***** for senators and congressmen, stunting Obama's change plans.
Ain't life a bitch? Lesson: Know who you're voting for, even on the local level, and don't vote by party alone. - inactive, on 05/08/2008, -0/+3I want a cut of the revenue that the propaganda site huffingtonspam makes off of gaming digg.
- inactive, on 05/08/2008, -0/+3Reed cant be all bad, he hates Rontards. I found a few great stories looking at his history.
- devaspark, on 05/08/2008, -1/+4Can we have less huff posts? It's like the 5th or 6th one today.
AP post of the same article: http://ap.google.com/article/ALeqM5i23h4XqvR0Ph96a ...
credit Reidfleming up top. - dagamer34, on 05/08/2008, -1/+4What people don't realize is that Barack is soon within reach of eclipsing Hillary of the only lead she has left: the number of superdelegates in her pocket. In two months, we've gone from Obama down by nearly 100 to almost a dozen. It'll all be over soon!
And then Digg can be spam free for a few months. YAY! - inactive, on 05/08/2008, -1/+4it's the guys third account. He's already been banned twice for trolling with ethnic slurs.
- darthtrevino, on 05/08/2008, -2/+4GO NINJA, GO NINJA, GO!
- elitistmusician, on 05/08/2008, -6/+808ama.
- inactive, on 05/08/2008, -0/+2OH NOES!!!
- martoq, on 05/08/2008, -0/+2I don't know about anyone else but I am beyond exhausted in hearing how Clinton "won" Michigan and Florida. Its not hard to win a race if no one shows up!
- reed311, on 05/08/2008, -1/+3Yeah, please target me. I'm not even sure what that is supposed to mean? I guess you'll go around digging my comments down, which is what people already do so it won't really change things. I'm not even an Obama supporter (or any candidate), so it won't bother me.
- vision777, on 05/08/2008, -0/+1Everyone keeps saying Hillary won't give up all the superdelegates have to do is commit their votes and the whole matter instantly comes to a conclusion.
- BrosDuCK, on 05/08/2008, -0/+1You actually fail at life.
- themagicfetus, on 05/08/2008, -0/+1I voted here in Ann Arbor, MI. I know a lot of students didn't feel like voting because they heard Obama wasn't an option. Those that did vote knew that a Democratic vote would not count and as such many people made the jump across party lines and voted for Ron Paul or Romney. Even considering this, I heard on the news this morning that there is a proposal to allocate 69 delegates to Clinton and 59 to Obama. His name wasn't even on the ballot and she only received 55% of the vote, even with Edwards still in the race. Seating the delegates means that democratic votes would have counted and many more people would have voted and taken the democratic vote more seriously. A live re-vote is the only option I would consider. Its about every other week that I'm calling the post office about lost mail in this town.
- birdly, on 05/08/2008, -0/+1Sledgehammer to the feet of the status quo.
- mal1964, on 05/08/2008, -1/+2Diggers are far more politically savvy when compared to your typical average voter.
- Aleman360, on 05/08/2008, -1/+2Dagger! Oh wait, it's been over since February.
- OwdenBowden, on 05/08/2008, -0/+1NO STATE SHOULD BE EXCLUDED FROM THE VOTE!
People - you start with taking away Michigan and Florida and then next time it is Vermont and Arkansas or what ever state they want. This is an election for the President of the United States of America and as such ALL STATES NEED TO BE COUNTED.
The solution is simple:
(1) Allow the votes for Michigan and Florida.
(2) Change the primary voting to ALL STATES VOTE ON THE SAME DAY.
(3) No More Electoral College. It is a ***** joke to see some one win the Popular vote only to lose because some select people get to really vote a person into office. 1 Person 1 Vote!
The end. - inactive, on 05/08/2008, -2/+2I hear ya, brother!
- TROY7, on 05/08/2008, -1/+1Obama's on a roll...
- mal1964, on 05/08/2008, -1/+1Not hate, But how would you like it if someones vote might of given you a raise which are small and rare. And he doesn't even show up for the vote?
- inactive, on 05/08/2008, -1/+1i shall join the huffpo bury brigade
- gkiltz, on 05/08/2008, -0/+0The only down side, and this is actually sad: It is going to take a good-sized group of super deligates, working together to break the news to Hillary!
- MasterTroll, on 05/08/2008, -1/+1I will not allow this to happen. I am watching you.
- euro22, on 12/17/2008, -3/+4"Digg will have a scheduled outage tonight between 12:00AM/3:00AM EST/PST and 1:00AM/4:00AM EST/PST"
:D - ahsanfarhan22, on 05/08/2008, -2/+1When you have two good options and you are really struggling to choose between them, close your eyes and go with either one because you know you can't be wrong. Otherwise you wouldn't have any difficulty choosing.
- NelsonR, on 05/08/2008, -3/+1Only four. The numbers say it all yet most super delegates cower in the corner while Hillary dictates all. Now the race card will be played to extremes. Hillary has no recourse yet the abysmal super delegates refuse to accept reality but live within a dream world state. POLITICS.
- inactive, on 05/08/2008, -2/+0Gee I guess that means he hates the soldiers right?
- inactive, on 05/08/2008, -2/+0Maybe they both suck equally?
- inactive, on 05/08/2008, -3/+1Sounds good to me. This site has been on autobury for months now for me,
