And will Chris Matthews ask her about trying to get delegates from states that she agreed would not be counted as well as her effort to disenfranchise caucus states.

Minnesota is not a small state, and we caucus. We will also remember her insults.

Here's an idea that I know won't be adopted by the Clinton and Obama campaigns, but which I think is a good one - from now until May 6, when indiana and North Carolina vote - don't talk about each other - don't say anything about each other - no ads referring to your opponent, no surrogates or press people taking shots at the other campaign. Talk about anything else - McCain, Iraq, health care, whether you plan to be on line for the 12:00 midnight showing of "Iron Man"- anything other than your opponent. give the voters in Indiana and North Carolina time to sift through the issues and their thoughts without all the spin and white noise that have been making this race so annoying

One of the problems that is not readily discussed is the way race has been playing in Pennsylvania - age and lack of education are two factors that are linked to being unable to vote for a person of a race other than your own. Although not politically correct there is a correlation to the amount of schooling one has to how a person feels about race.

They never and I mean never do any substantive journalism or investigations any more. They get e-mails from the Clinton staff and give the media there talking points and just like puppets the media goes on the air and perform for her. Why won't hey ask her why voters should vote for her with her campaign over 10 million debt.

Obama is a master at raising money and runs his campaign with ruthless efficiency, I wonder if he will run the government the same way.

I wonder if the people who are supporting her, are still going to donate money. Even though she is going to blow it or misspent it on pastries, food and other frills. She and her husband have made over 109 million over the last six years from 2000 to 2006. They obviously do well handling their own personal income, why can’t they run their campaign with the same efficiency?

Some of her bills tell the story (one-time expenses)

Enterprise Rent-A-Car - $171,675
Hertz - $46,319
Bellagio hotel - $25,478
A-Plus valet parking - $918
Donuts - $1433
Subway - $2500
Hyvee supermarket - $96,079

Total over 8.7 million still in debt

HRC and the media have conducted themselves miserably over the past few weeks. It actually sickens me to see her smile after her disgusting performance. Sorry but that is how I feel. If she is such a good executive, why is her campaign out of money and and hurting so bad she has to play dirty rovian politics just to tread water? If she had been smart she would not have to lie or play dirty rovian politics and she would have had plenty of money. She is not presidential at all and not a good executive

Every American needs to understand one thing. It seems to me that the media will do and say anything that will keep Hillary Clinton in the race. The media will cow tow, step and fetch it to insure Hillary gets her say. I am so disgusted with the media on all the networks. The journalism in this country is horrible they are paid for and bought by the Clintons and the GOP. The media tells you how to vote and why you should vote a certain way. America needs to understand they can not trust television news they can not trust ABC, FOX NEWS, CNN and MSNBC. They never and I mean never do any substantive journalism or investigations any more. They get e-mails from the Clinton staff and give the media there talking points and just like puppets the media goes on the air and perform for her.

When John McCain or Hillary Clinton wins the White House and the country is still falling apart the media are the ones to blame. So when our country goes to war un-justifiably, or when PACS and lobbyist still have control of our country. Blame it on the media they are public enemy #1 as far as I am concerned. Instead of the war terror it should be the war on the media they are the real terrorist. They are the true enemies of America and can not be trusted.

I am one of those Hillary supporters that will not support Obama. I would not vote for Obama if Hillary was the vp candidate. I don't know Obama and I think what we don't know is not good. I know enough about him to not trust him and I am not going to vote for him.

It's interesting that this headline focuses solely on Clinton's delegate pick-up. To avoid bias, why doesn't the headline say: Clinton and Obama each gain a superdelegate. Still no mention of the 29+ NC legislators who backed Obama today. Is this not newsworthy? Just to give the benefit of the doubt, is the focus on her because she won PA yesterday?

To MSNBC/First Read: Many dems, including Clinton supporters, have pointed to the pledged delegate lead at the end of June as the determining factor.

My calculations hsow that Obama has a "magic number" for pledged delegates of 138. This means that once he picks up 138 more pledged delegates, his pledged delegate lead will be insurmountable.

Projecting this out, per Mr. Todd's estimates, this should occur in Kentucky.

Perhaps it is this mathematical certainty that the supers have been waiting for given their comments.

Beverly, Chicago — Wed, 23 Apr 2008 19:56:08 GMT

This why Supers will pick Obama...
Hillary covertly uses the race card and fear mongering to polarize and overtly exploits gender to garnish her candidacy and now class.
The nomination should not be about either; it should be competency, trust, and problems facing our nation.
2 Bitter, Osama bin laden, Rev Wright, Farrahkan, Million Man March, Rezko, (Rezko not Obama was guilty), Pat Buchanan, Bill Ayers, typical White grandmother, Barack Obama is a secret Muslim (so-what), flag pins, victimizing sexism, elitists, fear mongering are the determinants Hillary has used to win the state of PA.
3 Sleaze not grit is what Hillary is peddling.
4 How dare her evoke abolition and Civil rights; when she provokes covert racism? I will only agree with her in regards to women suffrage. Progressive when she lives a pre-civil existence. Labor when she sent jobs overseas, no healthcare, and she never gave New York 200,000 jobs you promised.
5 No thank you Senator Clinton for taking pages from Karl Rove, Sean Hannity, Rush Limbaugh, Bill O'Reilly and other ultra other ultra right wing nuts playbooks. The Republican Party said it will approach Democrats questioning Obama’s past associations whom she have joined forces with.
6 My question is why isn’t her association with Peter Paul who is the plaintiff in the trial against Hillary not Bill not being questioned? Clearly Hillary Clinton has questionable associations.
7 Women have another role model and believe me I’m not using racial overtones, whom little girls watch every day, Oprah. In addition to that she knows how to manage money.
Stop this civil war Hillary and stick to the issues you spoke of in your victory speech.
As far as Pat Buchanan statements that despite all the money he spent, he got clabbered, the media gave Barack a free pass, is not a true statement. Anti-Americanism is portrayed everyday, all day, about Barack Obama. He cut her lead in half! Pat, that is not clabbering. More money that is donated means more people support. Why do think, Pat, Hillary has raised less support? I say all people don’t want Hillary to think for them.

This is really the message that should be taken from Hillary's victory. Why is anyone surprised? How can OBAMA "close the deal"? If in fact white men are not ready to vote for a BLACK man, and older american's are still influenced by their racist view, the democratic party is perpetuating RACISM.
The 300lb elephant in the room is the acceptance of OBAMA, as a viable candidate, because some segment of the democratic party is not "ready" for a BLACK president. He is in a no-win situation, he can't campaign is "blackness" away!!!!

Im an Independant voter in Florida. I want to vote for democrat (preferably Obama, but either one will be fine). I will speak from a swing state needed by both parties. The longer this goes on, the stronger John Mccain gets here. I have come to the conclusion that because of the math and the Clinton campaigns not counting on the month of february having to count, she is behind and cant get the pledged delegate win, even with Florida. She would have to win with the supers, which are going to be reluctant as a whole to go against the voters wishes. So she may get more supers from now until the end but not enough to win. So while this goes on Mccain gets stronger in states like my own. Clinton may have won last night and she may win in Indiana, however she cant win, and the as long as this continues the real loser is the Democratic party.

Senator HClinton winning the big states in the primary mean nothing in the general election - whoever voted for Clinton in those states will vote for Obama (meaning New York, California, etc. -I cannot believe that the people are not loyal democrats who will vote for Obama or Clinton vs. McCain (well most of them). Considering our economic state, Iraq war, and more, I hope that Democrats will not vote on lines of race, gender, etc. in the general election but on the issues -- it would be a sad commentary if they did. Also, if Clinton want to go there, Obama won big in states that are usually Red States. Also, Obama picks up most of the new democratic voters (1st time or in a long time).

10 million in one day is more than enough to take out the debt. Obama and Clinton have something in common today... They both got supers in states that Clinton won!

I am amazed that educated political analysts can argue that Obama's losses to Hilary, in PA, Ohio, Texas, etc, mean he can't beat McCain in those states. Doesn't this mean that all the states Obama beat Hilary in would be lost to McCain if she were the nominee in the fall? I suppose we focus on Hilary's victories because those are the 'states that matter?'

"So when this is resolved and Obama is the nominee, won't he have to select a white woman Vice Presidential running mate, in order to avoid alienating hardline Clinton supporters?"

Matt, that has been the greatest fear of white males for 400 years; to have a black man in charge of a white woman?
It will never happen.

By the way, for the uninformed...when you caucus, you VOTE for your choice of candidate.
******************************************************What the heck is this garbage statement? This year was the first time I participated in a caucus, and in my opinion it's an "incorrect" and erroneous way of continuing the voting day's process. It in no way arrives at a true figure of the day's voting process. People who vote during the day do not want to come back at night to a bunch of bickering, angry, bias individuals bucking for the microphone and acquiring votes to be named chairperson!!! So for your information, when I vote between 7:00 a.m. and 7:00 p.m., I AM voting for the candidate of my choice! A caucus is not a true representation of the voting process---no way, and I hope they do away with it!
