How many delegates are we talking about here? .75, total?
Andy K Jong Il @ 3:
12 general, 6 super delegates.
Nothing to call home about but everything helps.
Thank YOU.
Mark @ 4:
Considering the approximate 100 delegates separating the two, 12 delegates is a lot.

At this point, every delegate counts - Will obama or hillary go to samoa?
I saw someone wearing a t shirt that said
Bush

Hell No!
I think that about sums it up.
18 delegates is more than Hillary won last Tuesday. Of course we don't know how many he'll get exactly.

What's up with that picture and the blotchy skin? Can't you find a better photo?
woot. black guy FTW!
FYI: As per CNN, based on current results its 7 dels for Obama, 4 for HRC.
The Clintons can't argue that Wyoming didn't matter to them. Even with Hillary campaigning in Cheyenne and Casper, even with Bill and Chelsea campaigning all day on Friday, even with their so-called momentum, and their "'monster' scandal" behind them, they still lost by nearly 20%.
Wyoming mattered. And the Clintons knew it.

Granted it was a caucus, but when you compare the margins of victory in the states that Obama wins, with the margins of victory in states that Clinton wins, there's no comparison.
But as is usual, the Clintons have a way of defining reality. This is all an illusion, don't you know?
L.A. Confidential @ 23:
"Listen to the Silence"
Excuse me! I live in Laramie, Wyoming, and, no matter how small our population, we damn well count! It was so heartening this morning to see how many Democrats showed up to cast their ballots. Our poor old civic center was overwhelmed-they had to split the voters up into two rooms!
Last night I stood in line for over an hour to see Sen. Obama speak at UW. 8500 people showed up for his rally, and quite a few showed up for Pres. Bill Clinton. Yes, I know neither candidate would have shown up if the race weren't so close, but I don't care. It was democracy in action, and our delegate count is just as freakin' important as any other state. So please, all of you on here who like to make cracks about our state, shut up. Celebrate instead the incredible force of change that is moving through this country, and the people who are, finally, making sure their voice will be heard.
Go Obama! This win will hopefully set the stage for winning the next contests.
Barrett D @ 22:
Until the race is over every state matters. Unless you mean that now that HRC has lost the state, even though she wants to be president of the people who live there, it doesn't count?
Wyoming doesn't count
Props to Sharktatoo@30. Well said.
Congrats to Obama on another stunning caucus win, but go Hillary.
Overblowing the Wyoming results is like hyping the Sullivan county NY results (do you even know where Sullivan county is?). Only political junkies who are bad at math give a flip about this Wyoming caucus.
Whens the Media going to pile on McCain? Or has McCain, Dick Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld, Paul Wolfowitz, Condoleezza Rice and Richard Perle told the Media to STFU or else?
wyoming only matters if the winner would not have won if they did not have the wyoming delegates
Well, at least we know where Obama's been. It's our (Mississippi) turn next, and Clinton's already made an appearance yesterday in Hattiesberg (where, incidentally, I saw a movie).
Mark @ 1:
Obama is CFR connected, so how do you figure a change is going to happen?
Funny thing was, on Mar 4th after it looked like HRC had done well, she said that she was now looking forward to PA. I wasn't sure at the time, but I was thinking "Aren't there contests between now and PA? What about those states?"
cay enns @ 27:
Pathetic and disgusting comment, Cay. Apparently you take your cue from Rush Limbaugh. Don't some of you Obama fanatics realize how low you are going?
Barrett D @ 33:
Hmmm... care for some fries with your sour grapes.
"Wyoming doesn't count?" Care to elaborate?
In Americans politics, it's my first time to understand that such people like Obama are for change and care about the whole nation. No fear at all if Americans need thing moving forward then Obama is the right person to keep the country in better pathway.

Shall I continue?
[46 ohio progressive Says]:
All excellent questions ohio progressive.
When it comes to talk about overblowing results, let's not forget last Tuesday. After all was said and done in Ohio, Texas and the rest, Clinton had a net gain of maybe 9 or so delegates, give or take a few yet to be tallied. Yet to listen to Hillary, her media lackeys, and her newly found Republican friends, it was the Second Coming of Christ. So in the context of the primary in which we find ourselves, Wyoming certainly matters today.
Look, I'm an Obama supporter, but the most important thing in the upcoming election is that a Democrat wins. That should be our motto-"Not Another Goddamn Republican". If Clinton wins the nomination, I will wholeheartedly throw my support behind her. My enemy is not Hillary-my enemy is McCain.
I'm thrilled to see Obama won today's primary. This, in the face of Hillary's dirty tactics against a fellow Democrat, going as low as saying McCain would be a better choice than Obama. That and her touting her years as first lady as part of her experience in government, but I'm sure any call that she answered at three AM would ask to speak to Bill.
And what about those supposed wonderful Bill Clinton years? All through the Clinton years I for one was crying out why are the democrats doing this stuff,not acting like the Democratic party I know and love. A brief sampling of a few things that happened on Bills watch. Rowanda genocide,NAFTA,
WTO,Telecommunication's act of 96, not pursuing the Iran/contra crimes, and more.
I thought we had a democrat in the white house, what is this shit. Times were better, but I think a lot of that was that the corporations still needed the American worker while they set their plans against the middle class, in their insatiable quest for greater profits. The middle class would soon have to deal with outsourcing, witch was in it's infancy during the Clinton presidency, Bush allowed the corporations to kick it into full gear with all his deregulation and tax cuts for the wealthiest one tenth of one percent among us. They pay less dollar for dollar than the rest of us do, and I sure don't see any trickling down our way.
The time to curb all this in equality was during the Clinton presidency, Bill failed us by being nice with the Republicans. Obviously Bill could not see very far ahead, and the same goes with Hillary, she thought she had the nomination in the bag, and ran out of money come Super Tuesday. As a result she has gone to the dark side, using Karl Rove's playbook with fear tactics, innuendo, and outright lies.
Vision for the future is something that escapes these two, and I think that is something we should consider before casting our votes.
I honestly believe Obama has a vision a future that includes the middle class, and the ability to take us there. Another thing that impresses me about him as opposed to Hillary, is that his money is from we the people, and Hillary's is from Saudi Arabia, united Arab emirates, Murdock and many other multi national corporations.
The one tenth of one percent of America has had it their way for far too long, it's time for we the people for a change.

I can just see it.
Jan 2010
The Honorable Barack Hussein Obama, Jr.
President of the United States
Washington, DC
Dear Mr. President:
We are writing you because we are convinced that current American policy toward Iran is not succeeding, and that we may soon face a threat in the Middle East more serious than any we have known since the end of the Cold War. In your upcoming State of the Union Address, you have an opportunity to chart a clear and determined course for meeting this threat. We urge you to seize that opportunity, and to enunciate a new strategy that would secure the interests of the U.S. and our friends and allies around the world. That strategy should aim, above all, at the removal of the Mahmoud Ahmadinejad regime from power. We stand ready to offer our full support in this difficult but necessary endeavor.
The policy of “containment” of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad has been steadily eroding over the past several months. As recent events have demonstrated, we can no longer depend on our partners in the Gulf War coalition to continue to uphold the sanctions or to punish Mahmoud Ahmadinejad when he blocks or evades UN inspections. Our ability to ensure that Mahmoud Ahmadinejad is not producing weapons of mass destruction, therefore, has substantially diminished. Even if full inspections were eventually to resume, which now seems highly unlikely, experience has shown that it is difficult if not impossible to monitor Irans Nuclear weapons production. The lengthy period during which the inspectors will have been unable to enter many Iran's facilities has made it even less likely that they will be able to uncover all of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad secrets. As a result, in the not-too-distant future we will be unable to determine with any reasonable level of confidence whether Iran does or does not possess such weapons.
Such uncertainty will, by itself, have a seriously destabilizing effect on the entire Middle East. It hardly needs to be added that if Mahmoud Ahmadinejad does acquire the capability to deliver weapons of mass destruction, as he is almost certain to do if we continue along the present course, the safety of American troops in the region, of our friends and allies like Israel and the moderate Arab states, and a significant portion of the world’s supply of oil will all be put at hazard. As you have rightly declared, Mr. President, the security of the world in the first part of the 21st century will be determined largely by how we handle this threat.
Given the magnitude of the threat, the current policy, which depends for its success upon the steadfastness of our coalition partners and upon the cooperation of Mahmoud Ahmadinejad, is dangerously inadequate. The only acceptable strategy is one that eliminates the possibility that Iran will be able to use or threaten to use weapons of mass destruction. In the near term, this means a willingness to undertake military action as diplomacy is clearly failing. In the long term, it means removing Mahmoud Ahmadinejad and his regime from power. That now needs to become the aim of American foreign policy.
We urge you to articulate this aim, and to turn your Administration's attention to implementing a strategy for removing Mahmoud Ahmadinejad regime from power. This will require a full complement of diplomatic, political and military efforts. Although we are fully aware of the dangers and difficulties in implementing this policy, we believe the dangers of failing to do so are far greater. We believe the U.S. has the authority under existing UN resolutions to take the necessary steps, including military steps, to protect our vital interests in the Gulf. In any case, American policy cannot continue to be crippled by a misguided insistence on unanimity in the UN Security Council.
We urge you to act decisively. If you act now to end the threat of weapons of mass destruction against the U.S. or its allies, you will be acting in the most fundamental national security interests of the country. If we accept a course of weakness and drift, we put our interests and our future at risk.

CheneyIsADick @ 40:
For Obama 'change' is a campaign slogan that is code for 'No more Clinton's or Bush's in the news'. Which for a lot of people is a good enough reason to elect him. To America, being the way it is, 'change' means 'change the channel.' and do Americans like that? Oh yeah!
I think any realistic observer knows that one person can't change washington. The system is set up to prevent just that.

Why doesn't the Democratic Party understand that the bulk of Obama's supporters are not Democrats? Therefore, since Bush/Cheney isn't on the ballot, that means that they will not automatically endorse Hillary?
Then you throw in the fact that Blacks will abandon any ticket with Hillary on top since the perception has been made that Hillary can only win the nomination through crooked means, I don't see any way for Hillary to win the nomination and unify the part at the same time with her scorched earth campaign.

Well, this wipes out the Clinton gain from semi-super Tuesday.
While she is pissing me off more and more with her Lieberman-like boosting of McCain, I could still vote for either although for her with a large spoonful of salt.
I only wish that she could show that she could overcome her negatives and figure out how to win those who are so strongly against her. If she could show that, I could believe more in her. Obama is bringing more people out as Democrats while she is playing Lieberman, the anti-Democrat. She is like a drowning person will hold another person under water in the belief that it will raise her up.
Her negatives are so automatic with so many people. I stood next to a Democratic Party voter registration booth yesterday while a 20-year-old said that he would "vote for Obama or McCain in that order".
I remember listening to a hack-comedian/radio personality, Tim Conway, Jr, on the air in LA when the Patriot Act was passed. His comment was "At least Hillary isn't President". I sat there in the car waiting for his reasoning and there was none, just an expectation that there was one and it was accepted by his leader. I can only guess that it was something about "filegate", even though Starr couldn't find any fault through his investigation. I agree that such comments reflect more on the speaker than upon Hillary. As far as I've heard him say, he went through a lot of problems with the IRS and compulsive gambling and losing and possibly other addictive problems.
I also heard Jeff Foxworthy at a "blue collar comedy special" say "I was always told that if you can't say something nice about someone, you must be talking about Hillary." This was to the great applause to a Southern audience. Again, the basis of the humor was taken as an accepted truth.
If she were a good politician she would work to overcome this idiocy and bring as many people out of the dark. But she can't and obviously feels that the Presidency is owed to her if there is a Democratic win in the offing.
Mister Anderson @ 59:
Well if Hillary manages an upset and Obama agrees to be her VP were going to find out just how much change his supporters can really stand.
If Obama says "Come on people rally behind Hillary and I" it should be interesting to see what happens at minimum.
Truth B Told @ 13:
Why don't you have anything better to do than throw around innuendos? All you can do is try to make Obama look as bad as your own candidate.
Why don't you say something positive about Hillary instead? If you're a democrat, of course.

Zbigniew Brzezinski is a CFR and Trilateralist (founder) and wrote the Grand Chessboard. If you have ever read that book, or its excerpts which are available on the internet, then you might consider that Obama is shill for the powers that be.
Obama wouldn't be the first black man to sell out his people, or his race. Remember, some of those Cointelpro agents the FBI threw into the mix to infiltrate the Black Panthers and other radical groups were black men.

L.A. Confidential @ 72:
I fear her because if she was elected President of the United States, she won't get nothing done without fillibuster-proof majorities in both Houses of Congress. If the Dems use the nuclear option, then the Republicans will be able to use it in the future. The Dems will lose at least one house in Congress in 2010, and she won't be able to get ANYTHING on her agenda through because the Republicans would rather cripple this country than let Hillary accomplish anything that would make her look good.
Sorry, but it's the truth. People hate her. And now many Democrats and Republicans are starting to learn what the Republicans party has already known based on her scorched earth campaign.
That's why I fear Hillary....because she will further cripple this country and not heal it.
BoilThemInTheirOil @ 42:
Ironic that you would say something like that. I thought Hillary went pretty low when she said, "No, there is nothing to base that on, as far as I know.." when replying to a question about Obama being a Muslim. I thought Hillary and company went pretty low when her campaign accused Obama of Ken Starr tactics. I thought Hillary went pretty low when it was clear that it was her campaign that talked with the Canadians about NAFTA. I thought Hillary went pretty low when she suggested that McCain is more qualified to be President. At that point, I thought she went so low, I decided to contribute to Obama's campaign.

As opposed to McCain. Or Hillary.
Of course Obama is hooked up. You don't get as far as he has in politics by not sucking up to the money. However, as someone noted above it will at least involve a new set of crooks and not the same zombies we've been stuck with since Nixon.
Time for new blood in Warshington, even if it's as infected as what we currently have at least it's in the early stages of infection and might not be so debilitating.

Nearly half a billion dollars has been contributed to these campaigns, and now it is coming down to who can win by being the nastiest. I can think of many other things that money like that could be used for. Instead it is being used for mailers, radio spots, and t.v. commercials which are meant to destroy the other candidate. I am not partisan in this and only contributed to Obama because I am sickened by negative campaigning. Are both sides guilty, yes. But not both candidates. One has to look not only at the campaign workers and staff that are saying outrageous things, but also the candidate themselves.
I have a question; what would be the response from the Clinton campaign if Obama implicitly suggested that McCain is more responsible to be President as compared to Hillary Clinton?
ohio progressive @ 66:
Whatever. Sure as hell hope I don't get the last laugh.
Democrats in Wyoming? Hey thats great! Didnt know there were any. And sounds like they turned out in force.
Thats the great thing about this Clinton/Obama battle, its energizing every primary state it goes to. And think of McCain facing one of these two, it will be lights out for Johnny.
Ask those teams who sit waiting for their opponent in the World Series how it works out for them. They usually lose.

I never excluded McCain or Clinton. I'm just saying that the elite have stacked the deck that no matter who is elected from the candidates that they selected for our choice, they win. that is, unless the people were smart enough to pick the only two candidates who actually do qualify as new blood - Kucinich and Paul. But the media and the elites saw to those problems.

Thank you for showing up, and for caucusing! : )

That was kind. Thanks.

You have your answer in the Hillary's reaction to Obama's innocent but true observation that Ronald Reagan was a transformational leader in American politics. The Clinton's rode that tired pony for weeks. Hypocrisy doesn't get more blatant than that.
Am I reading this right? 7000 votes!? More people than that vote in my part of town ALONE. When all is said and done will he get 1 or 2 more delegates than Hillary? What is the reasoning behind Caucasus? Was it cheaper? Is it traditional? It would be interesting to find out.
It's a freakin' caucas in a Republican state. You do get that don't you? No, didn't think so. I mean, yeah Obama can win a hundred of them and it won't mean squat in November. But enjoy this nonsense anyway.
nyguy @ 109:
Not over the past three weeks. He's taken it from all sides: the press, Clinton, McCain, and Chimpy. I think he's held up pretty well. He's kept his cool and he's tried to give his side of things. If this is any indication of how he'll deal with the Republican hit machine leading up to November, I'm impressed.

Buck on, Equality State! As a former Wyomingite, I have never been proud for my old home state than before!!
In 2004 primary election, only 675 people cast their Democratic votes. Today? THOUSANDSSSSSS!!!!!!! In Wyoming, the polls stay open for one hour then it closes. When the polls closed, hundreds of people were left stranded. Its amazing that Obama captured 5,378 STATE delegates in the state of Wyoming. In Dick Cheney's county (Teton), over 1,300 delegate votes were counted. Dick Cheney will be avoiding Teton County for the rest of his life (haha). Next time I drive through Wyoming, I will be beaming with pride what they did today.
Some musical songs about the great state of Wyoming.

I agree, this is pretty amazing. The state of Wyoming should be proud--and I'm not just saying that because the caucus went for Obama. When one group of people is so greatly outnumbered by another, it takes a lot of courage to speak up and say, "Hell, yeah, this is who we are. Deal with it."
That said, I have to think that having Obama in this race has really energized not only minority Democrats, but also Republicans who were afraid to say that things need to be done differently--that cooperating is more conducive to addressing problems than just all-out open warfare.
I've said this before: my grandmother is a staunch (and uninformed) Republican. And she's going to change her party affiliation in May so she can vote for Obama (assuming he's still on the ballot here in Oregon). Why? Her reasoning: "He doesn't hate Republicans." To me, that says a lot, and it's positive. I don't expect any one candidate to be the panacea to all our issues, but we have to start somewhere. We can accomplish a lot of things by getting behind one person, even if we know that person will sometimes disappoint us or not always be able to solve a problem. But I believe he offers the best opportunity for unity this country's had in a very long time.
Congrats on your state's turnout today. Wyoming may not go Democratic in November (or it may, who knows?). But at least here's hoping you have someone you can proudly cast your ballot for.
Hillary says "I am going to do this for you". When I hear those words I know to pucker my asshole, plug my ears. and close my mouth cuz, I am about to get Fucked somewhere! The "Pro's", have pissed on the people since Governor Ray guns. Roll up your sleeves, get to work with Obama. He says over and over :"Yes we can". If I am not mistaken, that works only from the ground up.
Throw out the lock step Retuglicans and the Blue Dog Demoscrpts. Oh yeah, LIEberman too. This is the last chance to have a "Bloodless Revolution". The next stop is send lawyers, guns, and money. de Tocqueville said, People get the Government the deserve.,
Hillary is full of corporate cash and estrogen. Kabooooooooooooooooom!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Obama is a phony. He has always been a self centered political ladder climber who doesn't care about the issues of his own constituents. If you can handle the truth about Barack read this...

I think it would have been wise for Obama to give a victory speech today after winning Wyoming just to let the Hillary camp and all these talking heads on tv know that he just won another state and more delegates. I also would like to see him emphasize that he believes EVERY state matters in our nation unlike Clinton who looks down on what they call "small states"
To all of you that are saying HC is winning the states that matters for the Dems in the GE, I say to you all that in the GE, Obama will win NY, MA, CA, and NJ. He will also put in play Virginia, Colorado, and Missouri.
Despite how the Clintons choose to spin this thing, every state matters and every single delegate matters. Hillary does not like caucus states because she says caucuses attract mostly activists. Isn't that another word for engaged electorate, informed voter, good citizen, responsible adult, patriot? Caucuses attract the "most informed and involved" people. Funny, how once you become informed Obama wins by large margins.
gowest272004 @ 127:
Wow, that's pretty impressive considering the circumstances and the fact that on the republican side only 12 people voted!
p.s. Love those songs!
I @ 65:
Hillary is not a monster. And she is not a lesbian-as far as I know.
The California Primary results were finally certified on Tuesday, March 4,
and the final result is that Obama has picked up 4 delegates from
Hillary - for a total 8 delegate swing.
Hillary's net delegate win on March 4 was approximately 8 delegates.
The result? Hillary's victories on March 4 were a wash.

Hillary is not a thespian, that is really her true character, as far as I know.
GREEN MATTERS: We are the change we’ve been waiting for!
PURPOSE: The “Green Matters” event is a grassroots organized one-day mass donation with the sole purpose of bringing the ENVIRONMENT into the forefront of the 2008 Presidential race.
HOW IT WORKS: The “mainstream media” has proven in this election cycle that they will cover how much money the Presidential candidates can, or have raised. Therefore, a massive donation organized around environmental issues, by individuals concerned with the state of the planet, and on a nationally celebrated day of environmental awareness (Earth Day) will penetrate the national dialogue, once again moving the environment to the forefront of Presidential politics.
WHO BENEFITS: Everyone benefits when our environmental issues are discussed on a national stage, therefore anyone concerned about the future of our planet is encouraged to participate in this event regardless of race, age, gender, or political affiliation. However, this event has been organized by independent grassroots supporters of Barack Obama and all donations benefit the Obama campaign. As President, Barack Obama will reduce carbon emissions, encourage developments in clean energy, support next generation biofuels, work to gain oil independence, improve energy efficiency in buildings and restore U.S. leadership on climate change.
By making the Green Matters pledge, you will receive an e-mail reminder the day of donation, Earth Day – April 22nd, 2008.
You are the change the Earth’s been waiting for…make the pledge now at www.envirobama.com/greenmatters and on Earth Day 2008 tell the world that Green Matters!
Visit www.envirobama.com for in-depth discussion about Barack Obama’s environmental record and policy proposals.

don't leave out CONn.
RobertD, I hear ya man! I canNOT wait to cast my vote in May (I am from Oregon too!). As Obama mentioned in Casper, the West has strong libertartan leanings. Very true. We have strong anti-government feelings. In Wyoming, there is a strong movement of Libertartanism (smaller government, lower taxes, civil liberties). It was shocking to see how many Libertarian leaning voters filled the polling stations and voted for Obama! Wyoming will always accept Republicanism. But on rare occasions, they'll see through the hypocrites of politicans. McCain and Clinton are too pro-government and pro-lobbyism. Obama strong victory in red state Wyoming is actue proof that he can reach across to ALL voters. 8300 plus state delegate votres in Wyoming for the Democrat party is UNHEARD of. I hope people of PA are reading this thread and relay it to all their friends, family and neighbors. GO OBAMA!
Mark @ 134:
Five delegate votes went "uncommitted" Hahahahahhhhhhaa!!!!!!!!
nyguy @ 109:
such a pity that your hero [T]rudy is not in the race any more, eh?
Another important victory for the Democrats tonight. Businessman and scientist Bill Foster topped Oberweis to clinch "Fats" Hastert's seat. Althought, the seat is temporary but the message is quite clear: even in heavy Republican seats, nothing is certain for the GOP.
Another point for the Democrats!

What about Obama's hypocrisy on Iraq?
Senator saw 'obligation' in '04 to success of state--In July of 2004, the day after his speech at the Democratic convention catapulted him into the national spotlight, Barack Obama told a group of reporters in Boston that the United States had an "absolute obligation" to remain in Iraq long enough to make it a success.
http://www.boston.com/news/nation/articles/2008/03/08/obama_stance_on_ir...
The myths abound.
Obama is a FAR better Presidential choice than McCain't, and HRC is going to make a great Vice President.
The singular value of Obama in this setting is that he is an engaging liberal. All the people whining about how their dream date didn't get enough votes are missing the point of WHO IS.
Obama or McCain't is NOT a hard choice. And the troll-like voices preaching leftist mythology and litmus tests in a perfect world, are just defeatists with SOUR GRAPES on their table.

I agree-- the picture looks strange-- for some reason his skin looks a lot darker there-- I can't tell if it's the lighting or if the colors have been adjusted in the photo. Either way, there are much better pictures you could use... for example the one on msnbc's front page: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/
Obama won the Cactus Caucus so he should be president. Who needs California and New York when you have Wyoming and Kansas?
downplaying small states huh?
well lots of small states in total do matter according the leading candidate.
Giuliani strategy fails
Obama is surging!
kb @ 131:
ahhhh, that's a reporter that needs an editor, number one.
the reporter seems a tad nostalgically bitter, maybe he's got a great novel he's been sucking on forever that nobody will publish.
he drops a bomb-- obama smokes, obama yells, even swears.....
but you see, what the Clintonistas don't understand, is that Obama supporters aren't nuts too-- we don't think he's super human.....
For the sake of the reporter who wrote such a poorly crafted meandering pointless article (sorta like some 15 year olds rant about how somebody looked at him funny at school), and for the sake of the notion that there are credible arguments against obama, i wouldn't push that article around so aggressively.... or maybe re-read it.....
there's no there there...
unless you really are shocked and appalled that he swears and yells.
(pssssst....he has sex with his wife also....and likely enjoys it)
