Obama takes lead in Superdelegates

By American Street

I’m happy to see my progressive Congressman, Peter DeFazio jump in to endorse Obama. I wonder if he’ll be on hand later today.

As Obama has more strength in the West than he does in the South, I’ve touted our former Governor Kitzhaber as a solid VP candidate. He has a proven record of reaching across the aisle to get legislation passed, particularly the Oregon Health Plan. As a former ER doctor, Kitzhaber has also remained active as a champion of universal healthcare coverage. Consider this innovative aim.

DeFazio was joined by more super endorsements, including a crossover who formerly supported Clinton, so he now takes the superdelegate lead for the first time.

As I predicted Tuesday, the tide of supers committing is growing this week. Two weeks from today, that tide will have grown so strong that Clinton is likely to feel compelled to concede the nomination. Between the post-primary speeches on the evening of 5/20 and the end of that week (5/23), the general election campaign will officially launch.

I hope for both the candidates and their families, a long, luxurious Memorial Day weekend off so they can take a real breather from a long, exhausting and emotionally intense process.

Update: word has it that there’s a lot of behind-the-scenes negotiations occurring now. Discredited journalist and Clinton sycophant Stephanopoulous has been on Good Morning America today still pitching Clinton as angling for the VP slot. I consider that an improbable outcome. Other matters, like Clinton’s campaign debts, delegate seating accords, etc, are more likely, and such negotiations still may not yield an official withdrawal till the 5/20-5/23 period, or perhaps after the 5/13 WV primary, where Clinton could depart on a high note.

Obama said he'd declare victory after the last primary

I don't think we need to wait that long.

Of course after November we will still hear the Hillary supporters calling for the counting of two states that shouldn't count.

They'll call for them t be counted even though it wouldn't help Hillary.

By f u bush2May 9, 2008 - 11:01am

According to a report on CNN, they expect him to declare

victory as soon as his lead is bigger than the number of delegates left to be won in the remaining contests, which I think will be after Oregon. That would still end this thing by the end of the month. No news yet about whether he will pay Hillary's bribe money to get her support. The idea of repaying her the $11.4 million that she lent to herself just to get her out makes me sick. I hope he rejects the idea. No one should get paid for being a total jerk (although Limpballs seems to have made a killing on it).

Obama declair Victory on May 20th and pick running mate

I am very proud of the excellent campaign that Sen. Barack Obama has run. I am from New England but 2 1/2 years ago took the leap with my wife and moved to Portland, Oregon. My daughers, their husbands, all Oregon residents are jubilant that we are about to see history. Forty years ago, "Moses" went up on the mountain but told us he couldn't go there but we would (eventually). It has taken, like the Hebrew children of old 40 years of 'wandering in the wilderness'. Now "Joshua" is about to take us forward. His name this time is Barack (Blessed One of God).
I feel blessed that his destiny begins once he clinches the Democratic nomination for our selection for Presidential candidate to fight the righteous fight against the ignorance and fear of a generation of Americans.
Sen. Obama will have many issues to address with one of them who will be his running mate.
I have a couple of suggestions: One is Governor Bill Richardson. Bill brings more experience to this important position than many of the potential candidates. He knows how to build relationships on an international level. He has the humility it takes to be the 2nd executive level leader in our Republic. He is a SWestern governor with hispanic roots. He has strong relationships with governors all over the nation as well has strong leadership in western states.
The second choice from my perspective would put Bill Richardson as the Secretary of State, still allowing his lifetime experience and devotion to our country to shine.
The second choice would be retired 4-Star General Wesley Clark. He is a Sen. Hilary Clinton supporter and former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO. He is a real hero, Vietnam, Bosnia. He has a Silver Star, Bronze Star, 2 Purple Hearts and other awards. He graduated 1st in his class at West Point. He knows how to build relationships internationally and he has nation-state leaders who trust him. His presence on the ticket with Barack Obama would squash McCain. He is a southerner (Arkansas). His presence on the ticket affects military and armed force personnel who will trust his leadership. He would soften Hilary's loss. I worked for Gen. Clark in NH back in 2004. He is man, full of compassion. He supports education, cares about the environment, veteran's affairs and is against this illegal war.

Go Oregon, yes we WILL! Our prayers will be Sen. Obama as he and Michelle march forward to November 2008. May God guide his path and protect him as he brings this party and nation together.

By Boygeneral May 9, 2008 - 2:48pm

Welcome to Portland. Don't forget the under-cards...Jeff Merkely or Steve Novick will make a terrific replacement for Gordon Smith. I like both of them, and I'm honestly having trouble deciding between the two.

(And while you're praying for Sen. Obama, could you toss in a quick appeal for some warmer weather?)

By Boygeneral May 9, 2008 - 2:48pm

The second choice would be retired 4-Star General Wesley Clark. He is a Sen. Hilary Clinton supporter and former Supreme Allied Commander of NATO. He is a real hero...
------------------------
Indeed, he is a hero. I give all the credit in the world to General Clark for his service to the country.
But I am loathe to imagine a Clintonista, any Clintonista, being placed on the ticket and thereby placed in the position to do dirty to our nominee. Maybe I have a terribly incorrect feeling/opinion on The Clintons (judging by their actions as of late, though, I'd say I'm pretty much on), but one of their loyal operatives being placed that close to the presidency, in the White House, is a bad and dangerous move politically.
Keep them away from it.

re: obama declare victory

Okay f u,

If the votes in FLA and michigan shouldn't count, then why were ALL OTHER votes counted in regards to state, federal, and referndum issues in these states.
If your argument that these FLA and Mich. primary votes should be invalid then all of those dem's elected on the same day should be null & void as well.
I'm sure the Supreme Court would agree.
What say you? BS aside, can you support your point of view????

By chilcoMay 9, 2008 - 11:25am

By chilco May 9, 2008 - 11:25am

There's $5 more to Obama.

I'm tempted to ask my fellow bloggers here to join me in donating $5 to Obama for each of your posts. But if they decide to do so, they will join in on their own and let you know just how much you've raised for him today.

I'm independently wealthy. So have at it, dittotroll..

I just love people who spout about their independent wealth.
Many could do the same but have some modesty and forgo the bravado and pomposity.
Put your money where your mouth is fool and donate $500 for every post, then I'll be impressed.
independent wealth??? You sound like the Obama family who only gave $23,000 to charity last year despite his income from the US senate, his wife's income, and his book sales.
You and Obama.......... contributing all you can :)

By chilcoMay 9, 2008 - 12:25pm

Hillary has certainly been much more charitable

She's donated $11.4 million to her campaign so far.

By UffdaguyMay 9, 2008 - 12:39pm

Puff the magic dragon

charity to the poor fool.
Hillary 1.9 million
Obama 23,000 dollar's.

Gotta love Michelle and Obama. Tithing all they can for the sake of humanity.

By chilcoMay 9, 2008 - 1:00pm

Proof that you are an 8 year old

You completely missed my point. I would expect that from a Hillbot, who is far more willing to toss insults and innuendo than to actually talk about the issues that face our country. Good thing you're not answering the phone at 3 a.m. under sniper fire!

By UffdaguyMay 9, 2008 - 1:09pm

By UffdaguyMay 9, 2008 - 1:09pm

What sniper fire jackass?

The biggest issue facing the country is how to keep aanother chronic deceiver/liar, Mr. Obama away from entering the White House. We already have one Liar-in-chief, Bush.

By FACTMEMay 9, 2008 - 1:37pm

The sniper fire that Hillary was dodging in Tuzla

If anyone could be called a liar in chief, it would be Hillary. If you think that an Obama presidency is the biggest issue facing this country, you are blind enough to be a repub. Go right ahead and toss out ridiculous allegations against Obama. Ignore the war in Iraq, ignore the mortgage crisis, ignore the tumbling dollar, ignore neocon plans to attack Iran, ignore the loss of jobs overseas, ignore the crumbling infrastructure in this country, ignore the deteriorating state of our military, ignore all these important issues facing our country. Please keep up your childish, immature rantings that do nothing but ensure that the real problems that face us and our children and generations to come will not only NOT be addressed, but will be allowed to get worse.

What are you talking about?

Hillary Clinton has been on those issues long before Obama.

Shove your 'childish' comments up Olberman's ass.
And your 'immature' comments up Mr. 'pimp out Chelsea' David Shuster's ass.

Mr. Barack Obama come clean already! What were the names of your illegal drug dealers? Are they still supplying you?

By FACTMEMay 9, 2008 - 2:05pm

If she has been on those issues, she has done a good job

of shoving them into the background in favor of personal attacks and sucking up to repubs like McCain and Scaife.

Got any proof of this drug crap? Or is it the same kind of baseless crap that repubs shoved at Clinton about unexplained deaths and Vince Foster?

Still don't care to remember Hillary's Tuzla flap? I guess you have a very selective memory.

I am through responding to your childish and immature rants. You want to talk issues, fine. You want to talk trash, you can shove it up Rush's fat ass.

By UffdaguyMay 9, 2008 - 2:17pm

By hufflarry2000May 10, 2008 - 7:11am

She does not have more than half the vote.

ITS OVER

By f u bush2May 10, 2008 - 10:51am

For people that count the votes

she will again after Obama gets clobbered in WV. But for you neo Republicans counting votes dont matter. You will be a great asset to Pres McCain.

By hufflarry2000May 10, 2008 - 1:30pm

By hufflarry2000 May 10, 2008 - 1:30pm

She will never be in the lead.

AND EVEN WITH THOSE TWO STATES TAINTED RESULTS HE WILL STILL WIN!

By f u bush2May 10, 2008 - 1:39pm

Hufflary true dem

Hufflary,

It's not even worth trying with this group in here. They truly hate the USA. I fear that they may be the new voice of the democratic party.
Most if not all have never served this country in any capacity. Never volunteered their time to the poor or volunteered their time to a local, state, or national campaign.
They revel in their own misery and would truly enjoy an anarchist state, then they'd start to complain about that after a while. I'd love to see them operate in North Korea or Burma. In about three days they'd be hung in the village square.
Beware of folks who shout you down when you disagree with them, folks that belittle you, folks that throw out racial slurs but when it's put back on thier plate they can't stomach it.
This is a fearful little bunch in here and regardless of what happens they'll crawl back into their little holes once they realize America on whole is stronger than their little "search and destroy" mission.
"WE" are the true democrat's. It's good t know that. These are the children of the drug impaired, the sexually abused, and the racially motivated. Soon they'll be passing on their disease to a new generation. Hopefully the drugs will be stronger and take them out with their first hit of meth or injection of heroin.
Every once in a while the dregs of society need to be heard. They've lost their souls and are more or less zombies who still think their alive.

By chilcoMay 10, 2008 - 12:04pm

I wont go as far as you do

but they are not real Dems. When Obama goes down to defeat their voice will be silenced again. I dont think the party can be rebuilt after the catastrophe they are causing. Goodbye America.

Dumbass, inexperienced Barack Obama choose to remove his name from the ballot in Mich. and got blown out in Fla. with his name on the ballot, even though he did advertise there.

But it goes deeper than Obama:

"Julian Bond, chairman of the NAACP, thinks it is a civil rights violation not to seat them."
Your Link: Howard Dean helped create a civil rights violation? Oh my.

By FACTMEMay 9, 2008 - 1:56pm

Howard Dean and the DNC did not create anything of the sort.

This situation was created by the Florida legislature which knew the rules before they changed the date. Take your problem and your frustrations up with them.

By gt6May 9, 2008 - 2:04pm

And, if I'm not mistaken, the FL legislature, as well

as its governor who approved of said date change, are ... dare I say, REPUBLICANS?

Therefore ... if I AM correct ... it seems to me that the citizen's of FL fucked up again by voting in a Grand Old Pervert governor and Grand Old Pervert legislators ...

Sounds like they need to take up their bitch with THEIR ELECTED officials.

but sadly some Dems voted in favor too as I recall.

By gt6May 9, 2008 - 4:12pm

Unbelievable.

Well, at any rate, since the state set the rules over the objections of the DNC, then, in my humble opinion, it's a state issue, not a DNC. It sucks for the voters but ... you "get what you pay for" in terms of who they elected to state government.

I agree on Dodd. He is a valuable member fo the Senate and he needs to take a leadership position there.

-Marrion Berry- will carry DC in a landslide
-OJ Simpson- integrity of course
- Rodney King- can we all just get along (I will if u will?)

By UffdaguyMay 9, 2008 - 1:53pm

You know what would have helped

If Edwards had stayed in the race. Even if it became clear he wasn't going to win, having a third person there would have put the attention on the variable of Edwards delegates. Where do they go?

Instead of the Clinton/Obama people getting so vicious at each other, the feeling would have been there is no clear winner because of this third candidate.

Bill Clinton confrontation with voter

See video here

I agree with what the woman said. I remember pointing this out back in Clinton's first term. Yes I'm sure Hilary put a lot of work into a health care plan. But they never did anything after it failed in congress. No modifications, no rallying of public support to try again. Nothing.

It was like they could wipe their hands and say they tried. That's over with. Time to move on.

By f u bush2May 9, 2008 - 11:38am

FL and MI

She's not dropping until at least May 31, the day of the credentials committee meeting.
That much seems obvious thus far.
What else seems obvious? If she's staying until May 31, she will likely stay until June 3.
Team Clinton wants the presidency. They've been trying for it for years on end.
There is no reason to believe they will simply just give it up and walk away without a fight.
And if she stays until June 3 (and gets a favorable decision at the credentials meeting), there's all the chance in the world she fights it to the floor in Denver.
Especially if FL and MI get seated as a result of that May 31 meeting.
If such should happen (MI and FL seated May 31), you can already hear Team Clinton taking to the TeeVee to declare: "See, we told ya! 2,209! The battle continues!"

I want to participate in the joyful "It's over!" celebration, but I've seen enough of The Clintons to never count them out. Maybe I'm giving them too much credit.
But I'll believe it's over when I see her drop out and Obama gets the number of delegates needed...

Indeed. The only thing I'd mention is that "rightfully" is subject to differing interpretation.
And it has been made painfully clear by them that "rightfully" on Planet Clinton means something entirely different than it does to you and me here on Planet Earth.
I guess my over-arching point is that I am aware of numbers and percentages and money races and delegate counts and conventional wisdom and other realities... one of those realities being that there isn't a nominee until the convention is over and said nominee gave his/her acceptance speech after having received the votes of the delegates needed on the ballot in Denver.
Team Clinton has given me no indications that they believe anything different.

OBAMA FOOLS SUPERDELEGATES

Obama Lies About Oil Money

Obama Lies About Oil Money
Thu, 04/24/2008 - 10:51 — Judicial Watch Blog
While Barack Obama starred in television ads this month claiming he doesn’t take money from oil companies he actually raked in thousands of dollars in donations from industry executives and employees.
In the television commercials promoting his infamous change theme, the Democratic presidential candidate sternly assures that he doesn’t take money from oil companies immediately after pointing out that Exxon is making $40 billion a year and Americans pay $3.50 for gas. The well-rehearsed segment uses a gas station as a backdrop.

As the deceiving commercials were broadcast Obama filled his campaign coffers with oil dollars, bringing to light serious credibility and honesty issues not uncommon for a major politician. The Illinois senator has accepted at least $263,000 from oil company executives, family members and employees since announcing his run for the White House. Nearly $50,000 poured in last month alone, as he filmed the commercial.
The money has come in chunks of between $1,000 and $2,300 with an additional $50,000 raised at a fundraiser hosted by the president (Robert Cavnar) of a major Texas oil exploration and production company called Milagro Exploration. Other oil industry donors include the president of Texas-based Sinclair Oil (Ross Matthews) and New York-based oil producer John Hess, a longtime donor who also gave Obama’s senate campaign $14,000.

Link: See the bullshit artist (Barack I’m a deceiver Obama)

“It’s unfortunate that Senator Obama is using false advertising to explain why he can be trusted to do something about energy prices. Senator Obama says he doesn’t take campaign contributions from oil companies, but the reality is that Exxon Mobil, Shell and others are among his donors. I wonder if they’ll fix the ad.”

Link to Mr. Barack fraud Obama’s article.

Mr. Barack Obama come clean already! What were the names of your illegal drug (cocaine) dealers? Are they still supplying you?

By FACTMEMay 9, 2008 - 1:20pm

Haven't you figured out yet that she is done?

The only question now is "Will you support the democratic nominee?". If not, are you going to act like a petulant child and not vote, or will you vote for Pander McFlipflop? I strongly suggest that if you can't behave like the adult you purport to be, then please stay the hell out of politics or any other adult endeavor until you have the maturity level required to be a thoughtful contributor to the future of the country.

Shouldn't the 'president of the United States know exactly how many states there are, even in their sleep?

Mr. Barack Obama come clean already! What were the names of your illegal drug dealers? Are they still supplying you?

Obama's VP Choice

The best kept secret of the primary campaign season? Sen. Obama's short list of VP preferences.

At the top of that list? All you have to do is put one-and-one together after watching Morning Joe on MSNBC this morning: First piece of the equation is that twinkle in his eye when Mika asked Edwards who he voted for/is supporting; he wasn't being coy; he was holding a secret. The second piece of that equation is Sen. Edward's reluctance to endorse at this late date...reason being that Barack asked him NOT to endorse him because if he did, it might appear to be a quid pro quo arrangement to get Edwards on the ticket.

Stay tuned...I believe that one- and -one still equals two -- all it takes to make a ticket.
