1. Richardson said it was all about who had the most delegates after tonight.

Look for a flood of endorsements for Obama tomorrow.

3. Awesome!

I just see too much nastiness here lately and have to commend those who are gracious. Thank you! I'll overlook the sarcasm and pretend you are sincere. I'll vote for Obama or Clinton, whoever wins. I hope people here plan on doing the same, in spite of the harsh words.

4. I am sick of all she represents and believe this nation needs the new

way or it will be the highway for this person. I will never vote for someone who would sell any of my fellow blue workers out. She needs to go and tomorrow is not fast enough for me. Thank you for giving us a better
choice Obama.

5. So that would mean a net loss tonight for HRC if my rough estimation is right.

8. Don't forget her slimeball campaign tactics. I have no remorse for pointing out her failure to run

a successful campaign since she has decided to throw the party under the bus for her own selfish reasons.

12. No, I have not forgotten, nor the other reasons I have for feeling like 11-'O2...

right at this moment...that's not my issue. Tonight is Senator Clinton and her supporters moment to celebrate. A whole lot of our fellow Democrats worked their asses off to make this happen. Am I happy for her or them? Well not for her but the very last thing on my depressed mind right now is to be poking a stick at my fellow dems who have worked so hard to turn Senator Clinton's chances around.

I am depressed tonight in a way that my fellow dems who supported Senator Clinton were a mere two weeks ago but, in my secret soul of souls, I know that this process needs to play itself out for those who have not had the chance to even vote in these primaries and caucuses because they live in states that get that opportunity down the road from today. Like it or no, Senator Clinton's victory tonight gives them this chance. FAIR IS FAIR

No, I came to this thread originally to join a fellow DUer whom I felt was taking the high road but then I was shocked by seeing the mixed post... Attract them in and dull the victory by reminding them of the realities of the delegate spread. Remind them of the battle they yet face.

I was angered and embarrassed when I saw your post, but then I figured there are enough frayed nerves here in the DU tonight, maybe I should quickly delete my thoughts and just let this dog sleep.... my apologies to you because I could not hold my temper or my embarrassment in check.

I will approve only the part of your post which congratulates our fellow DUers in their victory this night. I am so sick of seeing our party torn asunder, if it is not too much to ask, could you perhaps try just a little to not drive that wedge in further? There is still mCcain to beat and frankly I worry that Senator Clinton may not be able to win against him...she just may need OUR help. Trust me here, the depression you and I feel now will be far FAR worse should Senator mCcain win. I suspect that will be little comfort to the good citizens of Tehran when President mCcain drops a nuke on them huh....

Tomorrow we need to get back to work, each of us in our way, and fight for our candidates. One of them will be the nominee and once that happens we will need each other my fellow DUer...it would be my druthers that we don't have to beg the supporters of Senator Clinton to hold their noses and come to America's aid should we be so fortunate...I have made it quite clear to Senator Clinton's supporters over the past few months, that they can count on me to be there fighting shoulder to shoulder with them should you and I be less fortunate.

That, my fellow Obama supporter, is where my head is at. Tonight is their night, they earned it, they have earned my praise for their hard work. That is what is truly important to me.

7. I'm stupid

I clicked on the kos link and then on the word Ohio, that took me to a CNN page showing H as the winner with 35 D's how could she end up with 24 D's. I am asking this as an honest question.

Congrats H from a supporter of O

10. That's 66 out of 144 delegates. The majority of remaining delegates are coming from Obama Districts

Read the Kos article and you will understand.
