FTA:
The Vermont victory was Obama's 12th straight over the former first lady, desperate to rebound later in the night in the other three states holding elections.
McCain added Vermont to his column in the Republican race, and pocketed all 17 delegates at stake. That put the magic number â;; 1,191 â;; within his reach.
12 straight voctories for Obama!

This is quite an interesting race. Huckabee folded and McCain got to get support from Bush, although he's got to be careful to not get to cozy with him. Obama and Clinton will go to the end as well. This is politics at it's best.

I had people who voted in the Texas Democratic primary that if you were profiling would be Obama supporters that were told that their precients caucuses were cancelled and some were told the location was changed. They found out that the precient caucus was not cancelled or was not were they were told it would be. Reports are showing this happenned in Jones County among other nearby counties. I wonder which group of backers was telling them this.

I guess they both get to bloody each other up for another 6 weeks while McCain pours gasoline on the fire. Way to go, Democratic Party. There is always some way this party can find to snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory.

She won tonight by 350,000 votes, she'll win Pennsylvania by 500,000.
The maths in her favor and I'm sick of Jonathan Alter & Oberman & Mathews salavating over Obama & saying otherwise.
MSNBC what a joke.

I hate to break it to all you Obama freaks but, our all you sitting down, he's just another POLITICIAN!!! Hillary's just a better one. American hating terrorists don't want no part of her. Plus she knows more about how the federal reserve works(among all the other agency's) than Obama will ever know. She's a policy wonk, Obama just knows how to fire up a pep rally. When the ****** hits the fan I'll take the mean ass bitch over the "Can't we just all get along" Obama any day.

The RNC "aka Karl Rove" have been pulling that old reverse psychology on democrats for months; Don't put up Hillary, she's got way to many faults, she will never win. Truth is,she will eat up McCain alive and they know it.

if the Dumbmocrats are so blind to follow Hillary well good by in November. What are all these followers going to do in mid election when she is dragged into court. Oh yes, her, Bill, Chelsey, and a whole lot of stars, easy running for the repubs. What can Hillary say against McCann on Military issues, will Hillary get one vote from a repub. NO WAY.
America thank Texas for another blunder, first Bush now Hillary.
DOES AMERICA REALLY NEED TO BE LED BY TWO FAMILIES FOR OVER 24 YEARS.
