This is becoming a huge problem for Clinton. The fewer uncommitted supers on June 3 the higher the percentage she will need to overturn will of voters. PS especially if the two are essentially tied in super delegates.

Ok great about the super delegates, but why no attention on the latest Clinton Gaffe. In particular Clinton has been complaining about a deal with a Chinese company that made magnets for guided missiles and which laid off hundreds of Hoosiers was allowed to do so by the Bush Administration? The problem with this, Bill Clinton’s administration approved the sale.

She claimed this was a SECURITY BREACH, but it was her HUSBAND WHO ALLOWED THE SALE OF A SENSATIVE MILITARY COMPANY TO CHINA. I wonder why the MSM in particular MSNBC, CNN, Etc . . . haven't talked about this? She lied and said it was the Bush Administration, how many lies actually equal a lie when it comes to a Clinton and the MSM? I am sure Andrea Mitchell, Joe, Pat, and Mika will poo poo this, but I have faith Todd will at least look at it. Stop all the hating Obama nation, Todd is one of the few who tell the truth, regardless of which side likes to hear it. I wait to see if this makes the cut.

THINK — Wed, 30 Apr 2008 17:34:48 GMT

Through this whole "vetting" process a few actual issues have managed to gain a few soundbites in the MSM.

1. Gas Tax holiday - One democratic candidate supports it one does not. Most experts agree it is pandering and will do little if no good and further have worse ramifications.

2. Middle East - One candidate stated unequivocally that she would "obliterate Iran". The other candidate thoughtfully acknowledged that appropriate action would be taken by the United States.

3. Healthcare - Plans are similar with one difference, one with a mandate on everyone and one with a mandate on children. It is worth pointing out that NO healthcare plan can be implemented without the consent of congress. Honestly, which plan do you think will get through easier?

It is clear that if you bypass all the talk and pandering, Senator Barack Obama, clearly is the better candidate on ALL fronts. It is ironic that Hillary supporters accuse him of being all talk but when you actually look at the proposed solutions and ideas it is HRC that is all talk.

KJ, CR, IA — Wed, 30 Apr 2008 17:38:11 GMT

So - if Obama continues to get 62% of the remaining supers (and not more than that), Hillary needs to get more than 75% of the pledged delegates in the remaining primaries just to keep Obama from reaching 2025 - and even then Hillary won't have 2025 herself. If she can't win both NC and IN decisively next week, it'll be time for her to give it up.

Fox news & MSNBC needs to chill out about Obama, stop being so negative towards him. I really think the media has done ENOUGH DAMAGE to such an honest and inspiring person. The news media is so intense about who is OBAMA? "We don't know much about him." If there was something real tacky that he has done I'm sure the media would have found out about it by now. It's just that the media, Hillary, Bill & McCain are praying and praying for something negative to come up on OBAMA. Hillary is the one with the BAGGAGE!!!!!!
