Delegates are awarded on mass population, not votes. Obama just happened to get a very slight margin in votes in districts that had a lot of delegates. Overall Hillary has the popular vote in the primaries.

mbcsmith,

Obama won''t be shuffling back to the projects unless he is making a special guest appearance as president. Meanwhile, Hillary can wait her turn like everyone else has too. The woman lost--get over it! OLD man McCain is next in line to be KO''d by the Obama shuffle. Scared OLD man? You better be--ask Hillary!

tuckerndfw,,,, I''ve heard a new ethnic term, "Blacxican" --- I like it, it shows an increasing evolution towards liberalism & the potential end of racism.

MIpapof4,

Obama doesn''t just appeal to Black voters. Face it, Hillary needs to step aside and let Obama stop McCain from invading Iran. Maybe women can make history in 2060 or something--wait their turn like everyone else has too.

Childish or not, Obama kicked Hillary''''s butt all the way back to the kitchen. OLD man McCain is next, and you wanna know something, there''''s nothing you, Hillary or McCain can do about it. ''''Nuff said!

But, that does not alter the fact Obama has won more states, votes and delegates than HRC. And, those totals are NOT based on the black vote. He is unifying people across all lines. His main opponents are old geezers who tend to be racists and sexists.

HRC is attracting far more racists and sexists than Obama. She caters to them.

But he isn''t getting more votes, Tuck, just more delegates. Therein lies your misconception.

For the poster who wrote something along the lines of, "Last night me and some fellow female empoloyees at my work decided to vote Republican if Hillary doesn''t get the nomination": awwww, boo-hoo. Don''t smudge your mascara too much from the tears. Face it ladies, Obama simply whooped your girls *** and put her in her place. Now it''s time to unity the party, so Obama can kick OLD man McCain''s butt too, especially since McCain already wants to invade Iran even before a single vote has been cast. But by the time the Obama shuffle is done with his old ***, McCain will know what Geraldine Ferraro already does.

This is the most divisive person ever to enter politics. He has destroyed the democratic party. Come November should he be the nominee, the red states he has won will go republican. The blue states won by Hillary will go republican. How can the republicans possibly blow this one.

If she can maintain the popular vote the Superdelegates are really gonna have a problem. She already has more popular vote than McCain so that old shill can''t be used.

I agree with you again. However, it does drive me kinda crazy that everyone just calls Obama "black" . . . and that''s not exactly true. If you are going to use race classifications, you should at least use the right one. He is bi-racial, for better or for worse.

Honestly, his bi-raciality in many ways is emblematic of what is great about America. We live in a melting pot, right? Well, there''s your melting pot, folks-- Barack Obama! Obama in the most fundamental way represents a unity between white and black. People might think I''m stupid for pointing this out, but I think it''s important.

Don,,,, I was listening to Grover Norquist yesterday on the GOP concept of "Smaller Government" & "No Regulation" ----- His idea is, the only thing governemt should be for is to protect this country & everything should be privitized under corporate control..
.... Maybe this "repetitive corporate sensitivity training" is another concept to develop those GOP goals. ---- Brainwashing

When we won Iowa, the Clinton campaign said it''s not the number of states you win, it''s "a contest for delegates."

When we won a significant lead in delegates, they said it''s really about which states you win.

When we won South Carolina, they discounted the votes of African-Americans.

When we won predominantly white, rural states like Idaho, Utah, and Nebraska, they said those didn''t count because they won''t be competitive in the general election.

When we won in Washington State, Wisconsin, and Missouri -- general election battlegrounds where polls show Barack is a stronger candidate against John McCain -- the Clinton campaign attacked those voters as "latte-sipping" elitists.

And now that we''ve won more than twice as many states, the Clinton spin is that only certain states really count.

But the facts are clear.

For all their attempts to discount, distract, and distort, we have won more delegates, more states, and more votes.

Meanwhile, more than half of the votes that Senator Clinton has won so far have come from just five states. And in four of these five states, polls show that Barack would be a stronger general election candidate against McCain than Clinton.
