Well of course, because Hillary didn't get her way.

You don't think the voting should be done right and counted towards the candidates properly? No matter who would win?

And 40% of the people voted uncommited anyways because they don't want to see her in office that badly.

To act as if the two should be counted now is silly, especially because appropriate campaigning was not done for either of them.

Was it her fault he was not on the ballot? No. She didn't get to campaign there either. Besides, since they did move the voting dates there was no campaigning or rallies or anything for either candidate, they should be redone.

McCain is going to lose no matter who he's running against. That he's even in the race at this point is laughable. It can't be serious - McCain's "success" is proof only that the Republican party is playing dead in this election. They can't even put up a candidate that supports their own values.

Neither side will have enough votes for the nomination so it will be decided by the SuperDelegates. If Hillary gets the nomination, there will be a backlash like you have never seen from the black community especially if Barrack goes into the convention with more votes. Hillary is a divider and the longer she seeks the nomination, the better it will be for the Republicans.

John McCain can sit back, relax and enjoy the show.

Barrack Obama has shown amazing restraint and class, while Hillary unknowingly will be the henchman for the Republican party spending Liberal money attacking Barrack.

Obama has enjoyed rock star treatment up until Saturday night live did a satire on how much NBC coddles him.

The honeymoon is over and Obama has some serious answers forth coming to the American people. He is avoiding conflict, but will have to address issues that are just the tip of the iceberg. How long will it be before a picture of Barrack and Farrakhan together surfaces? How long till Obama gets down in the mud with Hillary? He can only take so many shots and walk away from so many press conferences before he must slug it out for the Presidency.

No one is going to hand Barrack Obama the Presidency even though he was the media darling. Most people on the internet are not going to be affected by this hyperbole, but the general public will sway back and forth and remain undecided right up and till they pull the lever.

Don't count John McCain out just because you don't like him.

I personally like Barrack Obama. I have ever since he became a senator. I just know how politics work and he is going to look like ground beef by election day.

Hillary Clinton might just be the nominee as well. That would set the Democratic party back 10 years as well as make things much easier for John McCain during the general election. If Barrack don't take her out, John will.

I've always been a Mcain fan but i really think it is time we get a dem in office again. The way things are going it looks like Obama is going all the way. But ya know, it really doesn't matter to me who wins. It is going to be an improvement over what is sitting behind the desk now.

Hey, she was fine with the rules until she realized she might loose the nomination, then she gets upset and wants a recount.

And the if a democrat wins the Presidency, that's ok with me, the congressional elections are more important to me anyway. Gives us a chance to re-stock with conservatives.

Let me enlighten you on the perfect storm brewing.

Lets say Obama has the most votes but neither he or Hillary have enough delegates. The nominee will be decided in back rooms during the National convention.

Hillary could win the nomination and the black back lash could be brutal.

Let's say McCain chooses a black Vice President.......

He already has the Hispanic vote and the Clinton's have always depended on the black vote in the past. McCain would mop the floor with Hillary.
