It is quite evident that Obama will win the pledged delegates by a smaill margin. Clinton's only hope was the superdelegates. Now that they are not breaking her way Clinton is done. Stick a fork in her she is done and finished. Her goose is cooked! The movement of superdelegates to Obama is beyond very significant. it is the end of the Clinton campaign and the Clinton era.

In spite of the media support for Obama Hillary will prevail & win the nomination and go on to easily beat "my friends" McCain. It's not too significant.

When you've won 30 contests nationwide to Clinton's 14, it's pretty easy to see who the clear front runner is.

Everyone loves a winner, especially if you are a politician and you know your constiuency wants Obama for President. The Clinton argument that because she won a "bellweather" state or four in the primary means Obama won't do the same in an election is an insult to the intellicence of the electorate. Once again I say, "Turn out the lights, the party's over" . Say Goodnight Hillary and oh by the way. Good Riddance ! Breaking towards Obama.

If the Super Delegates are moving towards Obama, then Hillary is in big trouble. It's almost mathematically impossible for Clinton to catch Obama in pledged delegates now. The question now is how much damage is Sen Clinton willing to do to Obama in the Nov. general election? Saying Republican nominee McCain and herself pass the Commander in Chief test, but Obama doesn't? If you had any doubt as to what drives Team Clinton, you shouldn't any more. Hillary is proving that what's most important to her is not a Democrat winning back the White House in 08, but rather her life long dream of becoming the first woman President of the U.S. Shame on you Hillary! It's time you take one for the team and get out of a race you can longer win. You had a twenty plus point lead in the polls for so many months. Your campaign staff blew it with no post Feb. 5th strategy allowing Obama to win eleven straight states. Stop being such a sore loser Hillary! Jeff Morris-Saugerties, N.Y.- DeJaVu57 Jack,
