- gsadamb, on 02/20/2008, -11/+32010 in a row! How's that for momentum?
Thank you Hawaii, Wisconsin, and everyone else who realizes that it's okay to be excited about a candidate, and that aspiring for something better than status quo is actually possible. - num3thod, on 02/20/2008, -10/+185Game over Hillary. That’s what you get when you authorize an illegal war, try to change rules about voting in MI and FL, falsely claim plagiarism for things you do yourself, distort your health care plan as much different than Obama’s, and in general, play the divisive political game that we want to see changed. I will so be glad to be free of your toxic influence in this campaign.

Texas is next! - cg4et, on 02/20/2008, -11/+157March 4th: Let's end this thing. Yes we can!
- infinity777, on 02/20/2008, -13/+106Can anyone say...... Landslide?
Obama 08 FTW!!!! - lewhich, on 02/20/2008, -4/+91Boy, did you see how all the major news channels (I was watching CNN & MSNBC) cut-off Hilary last night (making a speech in Ohio) after Obama started making his speech in Houston! I think that was the worst blow ever given in a political primary.
They didn't even wait for her to finish. The Obama camp I should say is made of excellent strategists.
Obama 08 - iheartboobs, on 02/20/2008, -6/+85Obama's charisma > Hillary's political machine or Mccain's fear tactics
- forgiste, on 02/20/2008, -3/+77Hillary will NOT win Texas.
- entrophize, on 02/20/2008, -2/+72Part of me wants to feel sorry for Hillary and Friends...
...but then, after I see her pride and ego prevent her from making a concession speech, suddenly I don't feel so bad. - romistrub, on 02/20/2008, -6/+72Baha. Let Clintron cry her robot tears. They will not wash the dirt from her politics any longer.
- NextGenXbox, on 02/20/2008, -22/+77Obama is a man on a mission!
- brokencode, on 02/20/2008, -5/+58Game over. Obama is the next President.
- SheilaNoya, on 02/20/2008, -3/+54Hillary isn't as bad as the true "Hillary Haters" make her sound, but she can't win the General Election. Obama can.
Supporting Hillary now means we'll end up with McCain in the White House - that's unacceptable.
Every major poll shows that Obama will win against McCain. Furthermore, in my opinion, his plans are much better (foreign policy, taxes, healthcare) and he has the unique ability to make us want to stop being so divisive and makes us proud to be Americans who are willing to work together again to restore America. Hillary is just too divisive for most people to accept.
I appreciate you being civil and spellling out why you like Hillary's plans better, but it sounds like you aren't fully aware of Obama's plans judging by some of your comments. Please check out his web site and do an honest comparison of all plans. Also consider what happens if she gets the nomination - it will mean McCain has a better chance of winning and we can't afford to take that chance now.
Matchup Polls for Comparison:
http://www.pollingreport.com/wh08gen.htm - oceanrain, on 02/20/2008, -8/+57Time for Ms. Sandpaper Box to step down and concede defeat.
- arbouler, on 02/20/2008, -5/+48obama 24 - hillary 11! (MI and Fl dont count!)
yes we will! - Arcesius, on 02/20/2008, -3/+45I'm from New York, and I support Obama.
There, neutralized. - maiku00, on 02/20/2008, -6/+46great news, but don't get cocky. hillary has a nasty habbit of bouncing back into the race thanks to ignorant, stupid american citizens. we just need to keep our heads down, keep working to inform and spread barack's message, and work to get people out to vote. hillary thinks that the presidency is owed to her, and she isn't going to give it up easily. she'll go down kicking, screaming, and crying, and its NOT going to be easy or pretty.
- hannahmar, on 06/11/2009, -2/+42I voted for the first time yesterday out here in Hawaii. The support for Obama is huge out here!
- weebl, on 02/20/2008, -3/+41Even here in The Netherlands everyone is for Obama.
I really hope he wins for the sake of the United States, and even the entire world. The most powerful country must be ruled by someone who can handle the power, not by someone who bursts into tears over every little sad thing she runs into... The United States need someone whe really wants to change stuff, not someone who's going to let everything stay the way it is. Because at the moment your country got a really bad reputation in the entire world, you can feel that in your economics.
Obama FTW! - jaseg, on 02/20/2008, -1/+37Hilary nice job not conceding defeat in Wisconsin and instead just ignoring your loss altogether. That's the kind of responsibility and humility we need to see in a president.
- Jo9100, on 02/20/2008, -0/+36Giuliani has been to FL what Hillary will be to Texas and Ohio
- marmanukem, on 02/20/2008, -2/+35Deval Patrick gave him permission to use those lines. Both have said so. So STFU.
- BlueYoshi, on 02/20/2008, -0/+32Hey Ohio is here too! It will take just one of us to sink that pathetic Clinton ship.
-Ohioan for Obama - inactive, on 02/20/2008, -16/+46Obama speech after winning Hawaii & Wisconsin http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hQ7JuUADoCk
YES WE CAN! - oceanrain, on 02/20/2008, -2/+32Sure she will! And I have a bridge for you to buy.
- psykofool, on 02/20/2008, -1/+30hillary clinton... just stfu.
- lamprey187, on 02/20/2008, -2/+30has anybody noticed that the Obama BASHERS never disclose who they are voting for and why ?????? If you don't like Obama that's fine, but step up and say who you support any why. Very tired of neo-cons and spammers on these threads.
- TokenBlack, on 02/20/2008, -8/+36No, I believe we WILL. Yes we WILL. Yes we WILL. Yes we WILL!
/sarcasm - aliengoods, on 02/20/2008, -2/+29I believe in a balanced budget amendment. That would stop neocons from going to war by borrowing trillions from our future.
Oh, right, the dems are the ones who spend all the money. Yeah, the last 28 years has really proved that point. - biggusdickus, on 02/20/2008, -1/+28Nice try, but next time try to sound more like a human and less like a marketing drone.
- kevinzak21, on 02/20/2008, -2/+28You are an idiot an have no idea what socialism is. I'm sick of these moronic haters claiming socialism on every single democratic candidate. Democrat != Socialist. Do some research instead of spewing the inaccurate crap of your mindless friends.
- Joe_rigby, on 02/20/2008, -2/+27Dearest Hillary,
We have, "we will", we can, and you can't. - RansomHoldiay, on 02/20/2008, -0/+24she would rather have 4 more years of a republican president than to lose this nomination. hopefully she will go into exile after this.
- anillop, on 02/20/2008, -2/+25Its not Plagiarism if the original author gives the person permission to use his words without giving them credit. Hillary is just pissed off because she has the oratory ability equivalent to nails on a chalkboard.
- TheUngod, on 02/20/2008, -2/+24Seeing all these states vote for Obama makes me ashamed I'm from Massachusetts, supposedly very liberal and forward thinking, and we voted Clinton. Why oh why did I register libertarian.

http://digg.com/2008_us_elections/Breaking_News_Ob ... - jkoke, on 02/20/2008, -0/+21First, Obama did not authorize anything. He has no authority to authorize CIA missions into Pakistan. I read the article you linked to and the only person who authorized that attack was Bush. Bush roundly criticized Obama for his view and then turns around and does the exact same thing he criticized Obama for.
Yes, Obama said that he would as president go after Al-Quada terrorists wherever they are found IF THE LEADERS OF THOSE COUNTRIES WOULD NOT DO IT THEMSELVES. I happen to agree. If we are going to fight a war on terror, we should be fighting and killing the actual terrorists, not invading countries that have nothing to do with terrorism against the US. - 1337Einstein, on 02/20/2008, -0/+19Clap, Clap, Point, Point.
- beloitpiper, on 02/20/2008, -5/+24You're welcome.
- prthealien, on 02/20/2008, -1/+20I'll do my part to make sure she doesn't :)
- Jimmeeee, on 02/20/2008, -2/+20High fives all around!
- jkoke, on 02/20/2008, -0/+18McCain's attacks on Obama mean one of two things -- 1) he respects Obama as an opponent, assumes he's going to get the nomination and wants to start attacking him now to try to slow his momentum and frame the issues in a way that favors McCain. or 2) he desperately wants Hillary to win the nomination and is tag-teaming with her to try to give her a boost against Obama in the upcoming primaries that she has to win. Probably a combination of both.
- inactive, on 02/20/2008, -4/+21stfu tool
- Rejuevie, on 02/20/2008, -0/+17I bursted out laughing when CNN did this. I kept thinking, well maybe they will do a dual screen while the CNN reporter talks over them, but instead they just shot over to Obama.
- Gerz1219, on 02/20/2008, -1/+18Your alternative is a candidate who wants to keep the current war going for a hundred years, and sings along to Beach Boys songs while describing his plans to wage war on other countries. Obama doesn't want to attack another country. McCain becomes as giddy as Brian Wilson when asked about his foreign policy agenda.
- SHv2, on 02/20/2008, -0/+17Let's get to candidate first. Baby steps here, baby steps.
- Peko, on 02/20/2008, -0/+16Epic Fail due to lack of linefeed.
- jmkiii, on 02/20/2008, -2/+18Here is one Texan voting for Obama (only because voting for Paul would be pointless)
- inactive, on 02/20/2008, -2/+18Victory for America.
