Rep. Tom Allen (D-ME) Endorses Obama; Delegate Countdown - 153 To Go that was earlier today below
---------------------------------------------------------
Breaking from the Portland Press Herald...
Democratic Rep. Tom Allen announced this morning that he is supporting Barack Obama for president.
"I have been friends for a very long time with former President Clinton and Sen. Clinton. I respect their service to our nation," Allen said in a written statement. He added that "most of the primary voters across the nation have now spoken. It is time to bring a graceful end to the primary campaign. We now need to unify the Democratic party and focus on electing Sen. Obama and a working majority in the United States Senate."
More on Rep. Allen's endorsement...
PORTLAND ��" Congressman and U.S. Senate candidate Tom Allen today pledged his support to Senator Barack Obama. Allen made his announcement during a 10:30 a.m. press conference at his campaign headquarters here.
Allen said he believes that both Obama and Senator Hillary Clinton are “supremely qualified to be president.”
“I have been friends for a very long time with former President Clinton and Senator Clinton. I respect their service to our nation. Hillary Clinton has run a vigorous campaign and has attracted a passionate following in Maine and around the country. She loves this country and is a true leader. For her service, I am grateful,” he said.
“Most of the primary voters across the nation have now spoken. It is time to bring a graceful end to the primary campaign. We now need to unify the Democratic Party and focus on electing Senator Obama and a working majority in the United States Senate. That is how we can change the direction of the country.
“I am running for the U.S. Senate because I believe Maine should lead the change this country needs. I share important priorities with Barack Obama: universal health care, reining in gas and food prices, greater independence from foreign oil, bringing our troops safely home from Iraq, creating jobs and strengthening the middle class.”
Allen said Obama is the embodiment of change for Maine and America.
“In February I watched a new generation of Mainers become involved in our nominating process because they were energized and hopeful about the future. I watched Independents and Democrats ��" and even a lot of Republicans -- in Maine enthusiastically support Barack Obama because they believe he can and will put America back on track,” he said.
Obama won Maine’s Democratic caucuses in February. His candidacy helped drive record turnout of some 45,000 participants.
Senator Obama said Maine needs Tom Allen in the U.S. Senate for the change we need. Obama’s full statement:
“Tom Allen understands the challenges this country is facing, and no one has worked harder to solve them. He knows that if we’re going to bring about the change this country needs, we’re going to have to change the way Washington works. That’s why he’s never been afraid to stand up to the special interests and demand accountability from our leaders.
“Like me, Tom opposed the war in Iraq from the start, and he’s been a tireless advocate for ending the war and reshaping our foreign policy to truly make this country safer and more respected. He’s fought for tax cuts for the middle class, health care for all, and a return to fiscal responsibility -- something this President and his allies in the Senate seem to have forgotten about completely.
“I’ve had the opportunity to meet voters from every corner of Maine, and they have spoken with one voice about the need for real change. There’s no question that Tom’s record of service, his tenacity, and his judgment will make him an excellent Senator. I’m thrilled to be working alongside him in this critical election, and I look forward to working with him as President.”

Then here is the next one that happened later after that endorsement.
Hawaii Superdelegate Dolly Strazar Endorses Barack Obama; Delegate Countdown - 152 To Go
Monday, May 12, 2008 at 12:13 PM
CHICAGO, IL ��" Today, Hawaii Superdelegate Dolly Strazar endorsed Barack Obama for President. Strazar is the 279th superdelegate to endorse Obama. Obama is 152 delegates away from securing the Democratic nomination.
Strazar's statement...
As a Democratic National Committeewoman, I have felt it my duty to let this unique presidential campaign process play out, one that has reached across the country and engaged millions of Americans in expressing their preference for a Democratic nominee before expressing my preference as a superdelegate. I am now convinced that it is time to pull together behind a single candidate who has the backing of a growing number of Americans. I therefore announce my wholehearted endorsement of Senator Barack Obama.
I have had and still do have the utmost respect for Senator Hillary Clinton and the positive and uplifting force that both of the Clintons have been in Hawaii. It excites me, however, to enter active campaigning for a son of Hawaii who learned the lessons of "getting along" that so dominate the values of the people of the fiftieth state. I am convinced that these values of inclusiveness and respect for differences that we take for granted in Hawaii are part of what has made our America a nation based on freedom, equality, justice and the pursuit of happiness. I further believe that these values will serve to unify our country and lead us to victory in November.
The will of Democrats in Hawaii was expressed loudly and clearly in February and I am proud to see that that same vision has been reflected throughout the country in Democratic support for Senator Obama.
Dr. Marie Dolly Strazar is a member of the Hawaii Democratic Party.

Senator Daniel Akaka Endorses Barack Obama; Delegate Countdown - 151 To Go
Monday, May 12, 2008 at 01:56 PM
CHICAGO, IL ��" Today, U.S. Senator Daniel Akaka from Hawaii endorsed Barack Obama for President. Akaka is the 280th superdelegate to endorse Obama, who is now 151 delegates away from securing the Democratic nomination.
Senator Akaka’s Statement is below:
For more than a year, people have asked me who I plan to endorse for President of the United States. I’ve waited this long for several reasons. The Democratic campaign began with more than ten declared candidates. As a veteran of more than 30 years on Capitol Hill, I knew each and everyone of them and had worked closely with all. I had no doubt that each of them had the knowledge and ability to lead our country out of the financial and diplomatic chaos that we’ve experienced for the past eight years.
Having waged a number of campaigns myself, I can tell you they are not easy. Campaigns are tests, and there’s no tougher one than running for President. Like many Americans, I’ve followed the campaign for President closely and with growing interest, eager to see which candidate would articulate a vision for our country, encourage hope and renew faith in our government, and stand to the rigors of a nationwide contest.
After giving it a lot of thought, I’ve decided that for me, that candidate is Barack Obama.
Rather than echo his supporters or review his platform on health care, the environment, or the war in Iraq, I want to add a different voice to those who believe Senator Obama would make a fine President. He is the antidote we need to cure Washington of the uninspired, partisan politics that has plagued our country far too long.
What makes him uniquely qualified? A March 2008 feature in Vanity Fair magazine offers a clue: “He was born and came of age in Hawaii, the 50th state and in many ways among the freest��'thinking, where mixed��'race ancestry is …a given... If Obama comes across as a bit of a softy��"if you don’t see the toughness or the ambition at first��"it may be in part because he spent his formative years in a place where ‘Live Aloha’ had not yet become a slogan aimed at recapturing a more gracious time, but was simply a way of life.”
I have great hope, that in his own way, Barack Obama will achieve what I have been working to accomplish my entire Congressional career, more tolerance and understanding, an appreciation for common goals and interests, rather than an emphasis on our differences.
While I am pledging my support to Senator Obama, I want to make it very clear that I hold both Senator Hillary Clinton and President Bill Clinton in the highest regard as colleagues and friends. Senator Clinton has campaigned hard and well and I wish her all the best as we move forward. In an example of her leadership and commitment, Senator Clinton has promised that come November, the Democratic Party will be united behind our presidential nominee and I send her my fondest aloha for her courage and selflessness.

CHICAGO, IL ��" Today, Idaho Superdelegate Keith Roark endorsed Barack Obama for President. Roark is the 281st superdelegate to endorse Obama, who is 150 delegates away from securing the Democratic nomination.
Roark's statement:
After several months of careful consideration, I am announcing today that I will cast my vote this August at the Democratic National Convention for the next President of the United States, Senator Barrack Obama. I have not come quickly or easily to this decision. Democrats are blessed to have two outstanding candidates vying for our party’s nomination at this defining moment in American history.
I have no doubt that Senator Obama will run the stronger race. The unprecedented enthusiasm Senator Obama has generated here in Idaho is unlike anything I have seen in the past 31 years of active political participation in this State. He has captured the imagination and mint fresh optimism of young voters from Couer d’Alene to Caldwell, from Murphy to Montpelier. I firmly believe that the critical process of rebuilding the Idaho Democratic Party will receive a once in a lifetime boost from Senator Obama’s candidacy.
Keith Roark is Chairman of the Idaho Democratic Party.
Please make some calls today to help build Obama's delegate lead and grow the movement.

Suppose, just for a moment suppose that there have not been any mistakes made by the Bush administration. Sure Bush himself may well be a moron and or a clown but that is irrelevant because those around him, Cheney and his Neocons, are neither. Accept, for purposes of this discussion, that Cheney and his buddies are smart, tough and focused and they believe, with the same conviction as a religious fundamentalist, that corporations not governments should and soon will run this country and the world.
What if the only mistake was thinking these folks have made mistakes. Do a Google search for Bush mistakes and you get lots of lists. What if, while we have been focused on the clown OZ, Cheney and the others behind the curtain have been diligently, purposely and successfully executing a plan? Read More »

I have been looking at the media projections and one network see's Clinton in their polling winning about 7 points over Obama another network says anywhere from 5-7 %
Still these numbers do not give Clinton a large double digit win on Tuesday evening when the Polls close.
Now here's my take on what could happen their are over 300,000 new Democrats in Pennslyvania.
The big question is which way will they vote on Tuesday.
Some media news people think it will be Obama?
Really nobody knows in truth.
I believe Obama will take the big cities and college towns in Pennslyvania over Clinton.
If Obama can take the Suburbs outside and surrounding Philly he can very well cut Clintons 5-7 % lead in the Pols down and even with the other parts of PA that he has campaigned hard in possible win.
If Obama creates an upset victory Tuesday evening I believe it will be anywhere from 1-3% of he wins Pennsylvania.
Again Obama said himself today he does not expect to win but come very close to cutting her win down and making it an extremely tight race.
Obama still will get alot of Delegates from the Pennsylvania primary no matter which way it goes aswell Senator Clinton.
She still win or lose will not have enough Delegates to win the nomination from Obama.
Again the Math is against her.
She would need to at least to 60% per Primary in the other States and even that is out of the question .
In New Hampshire all the Polls said Obama would win and he lost in pennsylvania all the Polls suggest Clinton will win .
What happens if Pennsylvania does a New Hampshire in the opposite direction and instead of Obama losing Obama ends up with a victory Tuesday night upsetting Clinton in Pennslyvania and winning it could very well happen.
It all depends on the new 300,000 voters that are new Democrats.
Plus if Obama gets the rural Farm Community to vote for him and the vast marjority of labor and union people ,the College Students ,Old and Young and everyone in between he can win.
So let the voting begin Pennsylvania and vote for Obama the next President of the United States of America

Again a new Poll just out today and Obama as has been the case thise past weekend is taking off as American Voters move in his favor.
I have been talking about Polls for weeks and picking the most accurate polling now being presented.
I believe that people will and are realizing that Obama is the one that can beat John McCain.
A new Poll just out also shows McCain beating Clinton in the mid fourties.
Many times the Polls have found Senator McCain beating Clinton because he knows how she operates from the Clinton years and from her Senate years in Washington.
Obama can win against McCain because he does not know and to run against a Progressive Democrat and Clinton again carries to much Political baggage to even get elected.
Senator Clintons negatives today cameout again and they are extremely high Obama's negatives were very low.
So here is the latest polling between Clinton and Obama.
The trend is been regularly going and moving to Obama.
April 16, 2008
Poll of polls: Obama's national lead triples
Posted: 06:24 PM ET
Obama expands lead nationally according the the latest CNN poll of polls.
(CNN) …quot; Barack Obama has extended his lead in national polls over Hillary Clinton, despite several days of negative coverage over his controversial comments about some small-town Americans.
According to a new CNN analysis of several recent polls, the Illinois senator now holds a 9-point lead over Clinton, 50 percent to 41 percent. That compares to the 3-point margin Obama held over Clinton at the end of March.
The so-called "poll of polls" includes surveys conducted between April 7-15 …quot; meaning four of the days were those that immediately followed the initial reports of Obama's now-famous comments.
The polls included in the analysis were those conducted by Gallup, ABC/Washington Post, Reuters/Zogby, and AP/Ipsos.
I have been talking about Polls for weeks and picking the most accurate polling now being presented.
I believe that people will and are realizing that Obama is the one that can beat John McCain.
A new Poll just out also shows McCain beating Clinton in the mid fourties.
Many times the Polls have found Senator McCain beating Clinton because he knows how she operates from the Clinton years and from her Senate years in Washington.
Obama can win against McCain because he does not know and to run against a Progressive Democrat and Clinton again carries to much Political baggage to even get elected.
Senator Clintons negatives today cameout again and they are extremely high Obama's negatives were very low.
So here is the latest polling between Clinton and Obama.
The trend is been regularly going and moving to Obama.
