I think that if Gore, Pelosi and Reid stepped in earlier when it was clear she could not step up, then this would not have happened.<BR/><BR/>Can someone tell me why in the world did they allow voters to vote in Michigan and Florida when they knew they would not count the votes? That is why I did not go to the polls but some people went anyway. If I knew that this would have happened then I would have voted for Obama.<BR/><BR/>fair1234, FloridaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6363244382666617338.post-44422607634011719292008-05-29T12:24:00.000-07:002008-05-29T12:24:00.000-07:00Great site.

I've called the offices of supers in my state and emailed others. <BR/><BR/>Unfortunately, my district has a Republican congressman and local supers pay more attention to local constituents (I kept getting asked for my zip code, etc.). <BR/><BR/>Still, it feels better to do something, even if it's less effective than it might be if there were a Dem in my district. <BR/><BR/>My message was simply that this nightmare of a primary must end because if the Democrats are divided, while the Republicans unite, it virtually guarantees us four more years of Bush policies.<BR/><BR/>AnitaBeeAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6363244382666617338.post-86205074282573762482008-05-28T12:03:00.000-07:002008-05-28T12:03:00.000-07:00Great site.I just wish the 3 holdouts in NY would ...Great site.<BR/><BR/>I just wish the 3 holdouts in NY would get off their ass.

Superdelegates are supposed to weigh in at the end to give us a certain nominee. Instead they were used at the beginning to lower the bar for Hillary.<BR/><BR/>Now they are being used to keep her in the race and give the appearance of parity in spite of the fact that Obama has taken a commanding, even insurmountable lead. <BR/><BR/>Sun dog<BR/>Iowa City, IAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6363244382666617338.post-78283786222005934842008-03-21T07:26:00.000-07:002008-03-21T07:26:00.000-07:00Keep up the great work!Keep up the great work!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6363244382666617338.post-8739922936626670372008-03-20T10:07:00.000-07:002008-03-20T10:07:00.000-07:00While I support the actions you recommend, I doubt...While I support the actions you recommend, I doubt that the remaining superdelegates are going to need that much persuasion. <BR/><BR/>The conventional wisdom is that superdelegates are establishment figures, and Hillary is an establishment figure, and therefore their natural inclination is to support her. But that's completely wrong. Nearly all her superdelegate support was garnered when she was viewed as the "inevitable" nominee, and the earlier you got on the train, the better seat you were going to get. Since it became clear it was a contest, almost all of the superdelegates have gone for Obama.<BR/><BR/>The superdelegates are by and large elected officials, and their foremost concern is the effect the top of the ticket will have on their own races. Obama brings out heretofore alienated and apathetic independents to vote Democratic. Hillary brings out currently alienated Republicans to vote Republican. It's a no-brainer.<BR/><BR/>Gregg Gordon<BR/>Columbus, OhioAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6363244382666617338.post-6021992814791945182008-03-20T09:28:00.000-07:002008-03-20T09:28:00.000-07:00Great idea-- even SDs pledged to HRC might switch ...Great idea-- even SDs pledged to HRC might switch IMO if enough people write and call them<BR/><BR/>anonymous, PAAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6363244382666617338.post-17654508886330597152008-03-20T09:00:00.000-07:002008-03-20T09:00:00.000-07:00A wonderful effort -- many thanks for providing an...A wonderful effort -- many thanks for providing an opportunity for positive action.<BR/><BR/>The Obama graphic with sign language is way cool.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6363244382666617338.post-30098932799130335322008-03-20T07:35:00.000-07:002008-03-20T07:35:00.000-07:00Great!!!
