Hillary supporters. Log off the internet now. Turn off TV's and radios.
Do not watch news channels or election results. What you are about to experience is a disappointing defeat from Barack Obama after spending 2 hours dreaming about a comeback.

Slim 39%-37% lead for Hillary with tons to go.

10. Why do people find it so necessary to be jerks?
What the heck ever happened to being graceful and collected? Disgusting. Simply disgusting and down-right ugly.

15. I agree with you and find it awful that the candidates and their spouses
are themselves guilty of going negative. The Obamas have gone negative the least, but that was because it was not in their interest.

candidates from their supporters here at DU.

13. It may be too close to call right now, but..
...unless there's a major demographic difference between the areas that haven't reported and those that have, it's going to be hard for the last 45% to undo the the 3% lead in the first 55% -- that last 45% would have to be 6% in favor of Obama, 9% different from the people in the first 55%, just to tie the race.

21. It was closer to 3% when I saw numbers at 55% reporting...
...but anyway, it was rough quick math. The point still stands. Perhaps Hannover is the big demographic difference in what's left to report, but it's getting tougher, not easier, for what's left to make a difference.

61% reporting, and Clinton is still holding at around (yes, roughly) 3% ahead.

16. I have faced this arogance from Obama supporters in person.
not just on the net. I find it highly offensive and it is another turn-off to him.

18. Again, it is sub-idiotic to decide on a candidate based on (some) of their supporters.

28. Addressing Hillary supporters is no different then speaking with a Bush supporter, there
seems to be some weight to Barack Obama's claim that Hillary is like Bushlite. wouldn't you agree?!
