According to CBS, Obama Has won the majority of pledge delegates making it a 0% chance of Hillary beating Obama in pledged delegates. With super delegates headed towards Obama in a pretty steady stream, Obama will win the nomination.....no way the super delegates are going to deny him the nomination. congrats for a long hard fight Obama!!!!

OBAMA-EDWARDS 08!!!

It was said on CNN tonight that the superdelegates go along with the delegates; they don't have to, but they do.

Zero--Zip--Nada-- The people have spoken and will until June 3rd. Let Hillbilly run out the calender. Obama will still be the nominee.

One other side note...next time Juan Williams on Fox is on the air they should put below his name "Hilliary Clinton supporter". This guy is practically finding every little negative side note or issue to say about Obama.

Nobody has the nomination yet. That is just wishful thinking on the part of both those stations. The real problem is that some people believe them. I really don't care which one wins. If Obama wins it will just make my decision easier in November.

I watch Fox and they said that no one could have enough delegates until the convention. Superdelegates cannot commit until the convention. That is a long way off.

Just another proof from a Fox TV audience - no clue of what you are talking about. Who in the world said the Superdelegates cannot commit until the convention? Get this from me not Fox news, Obama would probably be about 30 delegates short of the 2026 by June 3rd

I stopped watching CNN when I found you cannot trust what they say. Most of what they say is just propaganda. I really enjoyed Fox tonight and they did not raise my blood pressure. They seem to be a little biased for the republicans though.

I wish news stations would start reporting the news and stop making it up.

It is my understanding that they can change back and forth as much as they want until their vote becomes official at the convention. Even some states allow their delegates to change their votes after the first vote. I have seen a lot of conventions and that is the way it worked when I watched. I am sure that you and CNN know more than I do. Right now my money would be on Clinton if I was a betting person.

Evidently the business world is afraid Obama will win. Stocks were down again today. I have noticed they always go down when investors think Obama may win. Just my observation and not from any news station.
