This is the type attitude that has lost the election for Obama. He may be on a roll, but it is not toward the presidency. He is on a roll to lose the election for the democrats. Mountain people are intelligent people who think for themselves and don't follow after the crowd. That is why Obama is losing in this part of the country. I am proud to be a working class person who has had a very successful life by the grace of the God. I can, however, spot a phony a mile off. Duplicity should be Obama's middle name. I wouldn't give you two cents for a person who claims to be a Christian and thinks it is all right to murder babies. The two do not go together.

She's really toned it down a lot, though I am anxiously awaiting the time when she starts picking on McCain's POW status as being something negative again.

Right the working class, those folks that pay taxes and determine the out come elections, who cares about them.

Obama will get the nomination, but he'll loss the general. Those working class stiffs can spot BS a mile a away, kind of like what I'm doing now.

That is wishful thinking on your part. McCain pretty much has embraced his buddy Bush and all his policies and the American people have already disapproved of Bush as President. A third Bush term, no thank you. That is change that Americans DEFINITELY don't need and the intelligent people can smell McCain, a clone of Bush, a mile away.

McCain is no Bush and if you think he is, you are only fooling yourself. McCain got his "Maverick" nickname because he didn't fall in line.

The big news tonight is that, despite knowing Obama is going to be the nominee and despite being force-fed Obama worship by most of the MSM, a sizable number of voters have NOT fallen into line and DON'T WANT HIM. And the percentage of Hillary voters who say they won't support Obama in the General Election is NOT ebbing. In some states, it's growing.

Heh, and the GOP hasn't even had a piece of him yet. For that, he should be thanking Hillary. She is delaying the amount of time the GOP will have to thrash him. For that reason only, I think she should gracefully depart very soon and let the GOP attack machine have at him. Let's see how far whining gets him.

The Dnc had better be very careful before nominating Obama. In every state the Dems have to win or keep togain the presidency (Ohio,New York, Pennsylvania, Kentucky, Florida, etc.) Hillary kicked his butt!!

I keep hearing this talk of Obama whining. How is he whining? The majority of the people in the states that have followed the rules have spoken. DO NOT WANT HILLARY.

She is the one who consented to the initial DNC rules but is now attempting to have those rules rescinded to win the nomination. She is the one who is whining about how the delegates in Michigan and Florida need to be seated so that she is ahead. Way to try to get the rules changed around when you see that you have next to no chance of winning the nomination.

Secondly, everyone is aware that Clinton surpassed Obama in votes in OH, NY, PA, KY, and FL, largely regarded as states needed to go blue if a Democrat is going to take presidential office. That creates even MORE of a case why Hillary needs to drop out, stand with Obama, and help him capture as many voters as possible for November.

Obama will need a strong VP candidate to help state his case. As it stands now, people's ignorant personal views are running too rampant. Between the people who think Obama is a Muslim, a foreigner, an elitist, etc. he has no chance of winning. If he gets a well-respected, white, Protestant VP, he might not lose an extreme amount of Hillary voters.
