Hillary Remains The Frontrunner
Filed under: Politik > Barack Obama > Hillary Clinton > John McCain
While it was an easy win for John McCain in the Republican presidential primaries, the Democratic race was neck and neck.
However, Hillary Clinton took home more delegates on Super Tuesday and she goes in to the upcoming primaries with the advantage.
Should be an interesting and heated race to the finish!

Actually, she didn't. It is projected that Obama will have 841 after tonight to Hillary's 837.
This was a huge loss for Hillary and a huge win for Obama.
you fucking moron. she hasn't won more delegates yet and obama is STILL ahead even if she did. seriously how much is her campaign paying you to support her? quite honestly if you are a supporter of hers that definately makes me not want to support her. if she is the candidate for the democrats this life long democrat is supporting mccain in 08.
Re: Rozanne – shut the fuck up you nasty spic bitch. suck my dick and swallow good, then clean my shitty toilet bitch
Damnit Perez, youre a biased moron. There is no frontrunner, its virtually tied, idiot. Stop talking like you know anything about the process, because you clearly don't.
It was not an "easy win" for McCain either. Get your damn facts straight before you post it for thousands to see, moron.
HILLARY 08!
HOW COME NONE OF YOU SHITHEAD'S SUPPORTING HER ARE SPEAKING OF HOW SHE PLANS TO PAY FOR HER HEALTHCARE PLAN? FUCKIN DUMBASSES. I GUESS YOU ARE OK WITH HER FORCING YOU TO PAY FOR IT EVEN IF YOU CANT AFFORD IT. LOSERS
You're fucking stupid Perez…1. What the hell are you talking about when you say "win", the primaries aren't over dumbass 2. How the hell do you figure any "win" was "easy" for McCain? It's neck and neck in both parties. Go back to fucking high school perez and retake a damn government class.
dear perez,
I love you, but as a political Science graduate student I have to say you clearly dont know the definition of FRONTRUNNER…dont throw that term around loosely please… Love ya tho perez
Actually Barack comes out on top. He picks up way more states and more delegates. Even though Hillary won in some states his margin was close and therefore a more even split of the delegates. He however smashed her in most of the states and picks up more delegates. Despite her win in California.
So think again. It's a dead even split but she is not the front runner.
VOTE FOR OBAMA!!!!!!!!!!!
Do everyone a favor and sick to celebrity gossip.
You might want to get your facts straight…Obama got more delegates and given Hilary's "lead" going into the primaries she has LOST!!!!
The U.S. is on a downhill course that we'll never pull out of now. We're so screwed if she makes it into the White House. And we think we have problems now? Ha!! Wait until she's been President for three months.
I'm voting for Hillary in two weeks! I can't wait to cast my vote.
perez,
it seems to me that the hillary campaign is paying you to post more positive announcements about the clintons. you were so excited about obama from the get go…what happened?! you are an agent of change and now you're part of the establishment. i'm sorry to see that you have lost your voice…perhaps like hillary you will find it again…40 years later.
FUCK LATINOS WE NEED TO BUILD A FENCE TO KEEP OUT THESE WETBACKS! THEY COME TO OUR COUNTRY, STEALING WHITE MAN AND BLACK MAN JOBS FOR THESE CHEAP LABOR LATINOS! FUCK YOU PEREZ YOU'RE A LATINO AS WELL FUCKING DIP SHIT FAGGEZ!
OBAMA 08, FUCK LATINO'S.
Re: OBAMA08 – whatever
THE MAJORITY OF THE PPL THAT VOTED FOR HILLARY WERE PPL THAT MAKE LESS THAN $50,000 and THE MAJORITY OF THE PPL THAT VOTED FOR OBAMA MAKE OVER $50,000. SO THAT JUST SHOWS YOU WHO IS SPEAKING TO WHO. CLINTON IS FOR THE COMMON FOLK WHILE OBAMA IS FOR THE HAVE AND THE HAVE MORES….MUCH LIKE BUSH/CHENEY. HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY HILLARY!!

As a white man, I'm disgusted at the Latino community, it's obvious they think Clinton would give a green ticket for them to live here legally, sorry to break it to you losers, but most of our jobs would end up to these slimy latinos through cheat labor!! Good luck to us real Americans, we all probably have to find jobs overseas i.e Australia or England (Less wetbacks there + they're isolated from South America so they won't be coming there by walking ahah!!) Obama 08! If Obama loses, I'm going for MCCAIN!
You need more help than Britney
Re: Laura – Sorry Laura I think it is funny that you told him to "learn some grammer." It's GRAMMAR dumbass. Anyway i do agree with you. Just had to correct your stupidness. GO OBAMA!!!
want to see a funny video of hillary, go to youtube and search for clintorious
lol
her new fragrance
also, she sucks ass
LOSER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
NOOoooOOooOooOOO! not hitlery! Ron Paul! Please for the love of god!
Dont give up we need OBAMA
i truly believe he could change things around
AMERICA NEEDS OBAMA!!!!!!!!!
this is suppose to be a fun and entertaining blog and its becoming nothing but a hillary clinton haven. If I wanna know whos the front runner, I can see it on Fox news or msnbc or whatever. Enough with the political debates on a whats suppose to be a fucking gossip site.
RON PAUL !!!!! OUR LAST HOPE!!
THERE IS NO FRONTRUNNER ON EITHER SIDE!
They are virtually neck and neck. READ NEWS!!!
I come here for celebrity news, not politics. For that I go to CNN, and you should leave it to them to report.
Plus obama won 13 states to billary's 9
What are you talking about? Barack won more states and more delegates today. And Hillary is slowly losing her race here in California the more the results come in. Sure Hillary will remain te front runner but Barack is pulling ahead. MSNBC even stated that at Barack's worst he will end up with 841 delegates and Clinton will end up with 837. And Clinton right now has a lot of Super Delegates who can change their vote at a moments notice.
HIllaryyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy go Hillary ,
Hilldog for prez
Muah Love you Hilllary
This sad story tells you why this election is so important and why Washington insiders have to go
fuck hillary
If you've been watching MSNBC, they show how tonight puts Obama in a GREAT position, even with superdelegates lined up putting Hillary in front. He'll likely win the caucus states on Saturday, then the next round on Tuesday (a week away folks) and then be ahead of the supposedly-inevitable Hillary. Let us not forget she thought this was sewn up from the start. Anyway, the numbers are very good for Obama and that is why he is so upbeat about the Presidency. He can see the shift happening in the US is more than global, it is truly a cosmic shift where voters are going to change this country. I just donated and hopefully every bit helps. go obama - we need someone to change things and hillary is too bought-by-corporate money to be that person. The numbers don't lie.
I love blog on celebrities, but I think you need to stick with what you're best at–celebrity gossip. Politics and policy is much more complex than LA and Hollywood. I'm actually a Hillary fan, but when you mention delegates, make sure you know what you're talking about next time. The state delegates are only a very small part of the overall delegat process.
In case no one checked it out, you fat dolt, if you are wondering how the gays feel about her, San Francisco and Marin counties both went for Obama, so guess you don't know what you are talking about. The movement has begun. Keep it going young people. Register EARLY so you can vote on the day of the polling!!! –
No she didn't…
Hillary is awesome! Go Hillary!
If it wasn't for all the men in office, we would've never had war. Little boys growing up with toy guns and knives while the girls pay with dolls. Go females!
STOP REPORTING ON THE PRIMARY! YOUR FACTS ARE ALWAYS LOSE AND THEY ARE STILL COUNTING BALLOTS! SHUT THE FUCK UP!
Get your facts straight! Obama won WAY more states that Hillary and the delegate total isn't known yet but he may very well win more delegates than her.
The number of states won doesn't matter, it's the size. Hillary won the big states: New York, New Jersey, California, Tennessee, and she also won the popular vote overall.
Congratulations to her.
are you sure?? i'm thought obama won more states and delegates.
i think you need an update
GIVE IT UP BARACK HUSSEIN OBAMA!AMERICA DOESN'T NEED YOU OR OTHER MUSLIMS!
Hillary is the only candidate. I am sick of the Obama smoke and mirrors. He can't say anything concrete about what he will do, because he hasn't done anything. He has no position. Obama preaches change, but message is empty. Hillary is a solid leader with real goals that she has been working toward achieving for upwards of 15 years now. Supply HER with the party platform and THEN you will see change!!!
americablog has obama with about a 4 delegate lead
Hillary won the big states quite impressively.
Team Hillary!!
Perez
Do you really think you have any chance of gay marriage with Hillary? I was surprised by your support. I iam a democrat and will support her if she is the nominee but she is way to political to ever allow gay marriage which I am for and not gay. Uour best bet is obama. Don't ask don't tell is a joke
Get real!!!!!
ScottCashman
NY Times has Hillary ahead in the estimated delegate count by 100 delegates.
Way to go Hillary!
A vote for Change….should be a vote for hillary clinton….don't get swept away by what Obama says…..he gives you nothing but false statements and inacuracies. He states that he didn't vote for the war….well that is because he wasn't in a position to vote!! He wasn't part of the senate at that time….so how can we say he wouldn't have??
You can't base this vote on hypatheticals….it has to be about what is acutal and real!! And what is real….is that Hillary Clinton is a strong independent woman, who is ready to lead your counrty through this economic crisis, has a REAL and VIABLE plan for health care, and will get your troops out of Iraq in the most timely and safe manner….
I don't see how any of you can have actually read the facts…and not just listened to Obama speak….can actually vote for him….save yourselves from 4 years of Obama buckling under pressure….and Vote hillary….the PERSON who knows how to get the job done….
Re: Hillary –
Now it's just a matter of time when Barack Hussein Obama gives up!
You go gurl.
You go gurl.
You go gurl.
You go gurl.
You go gurl.
You go gurl.
You go gurl.
Sorry, Perez, but none of the reliable news sources I look at are describing Hillary as the "frontrunner." In fact, they're ALL saying it will be a close, hard fought race right up to the convention.
Obama did very well on Tuesday, winning 13 states to Hillary's 8 or 9 (NM is still undecided as I type). The delegate count was also very close. Hillary has in NO WAY been anointed as the Democratic party frontrunner. Obama's success has been truly astonishing, perhaps most of all, to Hillary Clinton herself.
McCain, on the other hand, will clearly be the nominee for Republicans, handily beating Romney, Huckabee, and Ron Paul.
Everyone knows you've endorsed Hillary, Perez. Please try and keep your own personal bias from distorting the facts. You may not like it, but Obama is still very much a contender for his party's nomination.
Sorry Perez, you got it wrong, Obama pulled more delegates than Clinton.
fuck yaself, perez. barack and roll, america. '08ama
OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH YEAHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
Take that you Obama supporters! LOL!
God please BLESS AMERICA with an Intelligent, Democratic FUTURE & President. Otherwise -Everything will continue 2 exist on a greedy, shizzy- Foreign Policy path-accompanied by an uneducated Bunch of self-serving , RED NECK Republicans. Honestly….how is it possible that the U.S OF A has sooo much $$$$ for non-stop-WARS, and yet has no well-thought -out PLANS for ITS' OWN PEOPLE , such as UNIVERSAL HEALTHCARE????? WHAT A WAR -TORN COUNTRY the U.S has really become…How much are Americans willing to continue to live without a Nat'l Healthcare Policy, to have gw/bush treat Katrina as if it doesn't Exist (Oops,I just needed to blow my nose 4 a sec', kind of mentality, says gwbush)…Oil! OIL!Oil!'Fossil-fuels(a non-renewable RESOURCE) !!!'Wish it was Patchouli oil instead….Please help change America 4 the better (AND the rest of the World)…The Ice Caps…the Ozone layer, the Polar Bears , the FORESTS ,The Oceans; the Coral -Reefs etc.etc. G.B. America….. from & w/ much Love: A CONCERNED CANADIAN. Good Luck/ Bonne Chance!!!! make an informed choice to change the destuctive path that you all have been exposed to by the majority of Repubs (esp' your President & Vice President) 4 how many(2 many) YEARS????

Re: JustSayin – Everytime you post a comment it's insightful. You bring things to mind that nobody else on this website sees. Keep up the good work!
Re: Obaminator – Yes, but HILLARY won the most heavily populated states.
Hillary did NOT take home more Delegates today than Barack…
Perez- everything out there says that the democrats are still in a virtual dead heat. You're spinning the results to further your own political agenda. Stop acting like a dirty politician and do what you're good at- entertainment not politics.
How can you guys say her health plan is vague? She is the reason my son HAS coverage! Haven't any of you heard of SCHIP ? Do your research!
GO HILLARY!
i love how everything thinks they know what is happening but don't….
it's great.
i even read someone quoting ann coulter…
the race, i'm sure won't be determined until august at the national convention.
we still have 1800 odd delegates to "win" on either side…
and even the delegates won't exactly determine who will be in it.
and someone said something about huckabee winning states and kicking romney out of the race…
clearly mccain "won" but huckabee, the only thing he did was not drop out, he was pulling votes from romney and that allowed mccain to "win"
if huckabee wasn't in it, i'm sure romney would have "won" or it would be neck and neck like the dems.
either way…
i pray to God Clinton isn't president…she will screw us just as bad at Bush.
obama! '08
Check out the church Obama is a member of: www.tucc.org/about.htm
The Trinity United Church of Christ. Located in Chicago, IL. He was raised Muslim but attends this 99% African American Church. Just a little info for those who want to check it out.
HILLARY FOR THE WIN!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yes, it's wonderful Hillary is in the lead. What's spooky is Obama's number "666" You can't get much clearer than that!
#278
What sort of church do you attend, Bubba???
Lemme guess…it's the kind where the entire congregation has about 3 teeth between them and they don't believe in that new-fangled evolution stuff. Oh, and on the weekends, they get their jollies by dancing around in bed sheets and setting crosses on fire.
C'mon, you can admit it, can't ya', Bubba?
She should have been ahead by a huge margin by now… but only about electoral vote lead on a race to 2100 electoral votes means hse isn't doing as well as expected. Considering Obama out fundraised her 3 to 1 in the last 6 weeks, I think a storm is a-brewin!
This site should be about FUN things… not angry unhappy politics. Come on Perez… give us an oasis from all this…
HILLARY WON BIG TODAY BECAUSE SHE WON SUCH HUGE IMPORTANT STATES DEMS MUST DEFNED AND SHE WON THEM IN A HUGE WAY. YES OBAMA WON IDAHO,UTAH,KANSAS AND ALASKA BUT THOSE STATES WILL ALL GO GOP ANYWAY. AND YES MCCAIN WON THE GOP SIDE,ROMNEY WAS WIPED OUT,SO IT LOOKS LIKE ITS MCCAIN AND HILLARY AND PEOPLE NEED TO FACE REALITY. GO HILLARY GO, YOU WON AND YOU WON BIG,CHRIST MATTHEWS I HOPE YOURE CRYING .
hilary clinton is an evil cunt.
vote obama
Its a shame, as a republican, I would have voted for Obama. But I could never vote for Hillary. I WANT CHANGE, I dont want more of the same, but when it comes to the issues I will vote McCain over Hillary now. Dems are so stupid if they want to win the general election you have to elect someone that is ELECTABLE. If you have a canidate that can win over Independents and Republicans why would you elect someone that Republicans hate?
Clinton has snuke in her sniz.
Don't count your delegates before they've hatched, Perez. Hillary just *barely* beat Obama, which means that the primaries/caucuses will continue in the to-be-decided states. That, and I am sure the DNC won't look too favorably on Hillary for defying them by not pulling out of the primary races in MI and FL due to state official violations. At least Obama was willing to listen, as opposed to Hillary who chose to ignore the importance of "standing firm" against state officials that violate primary rules by unreasonably bumping up voting dates.
At least Obama wants to unite this country… Hillary just wants to make it like it was 8+ years ago like the last Clinton. What ever happened to looking to the future and not the past?!?!
IN NOVEMBER THE TICKET WILL BE MCCAIN AND HUCKABEE!!!! HUCKABEE WILL BRING IN THE SOUTHERN AND MOUNTAIN STATES WHO HATE THE HISPANICS YEAH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

kill all Asianz.
Love Hillary and Bill……..thankx America!
What a bunch of horney white men lusting after obaba. You should be ashamed of yourselves. White men, are you sure your not Republican? The sex in the bathroom thing comes to mind.
Nice.
Love Hillary, we need her so bad. At least California wasn't as stupid as Iowa. Thank you California and the other seven states
that voted for her. Go Hillary.
So why would someone think he can be president? If you can't wash your own hair, you're useless. Go Hillary.
Hill does remain the frontrunner. Obama did really well tonight for the underdog. He won more states and is expected to pick up more delegates. Delegates are what matters in this race.
Re: OBAMA FOR PRESIDENT 2008!!! WOOO –
Hilary is winning with 845 DELEGATES…OBAMA HAS 765 delegates.
It's not how many states you win, it's how many delegates you win from the states that you won. Hillary is winning clearly, but it's not over by a long shot..go hillary….
Looks like part of the Democrat's are as stupid as the Republicunt's. Any Democrat that would vote for a MUSLIM when we are killing them in two countries..MUST BE FUCKING IDIOTS.
I GUESS THEY ARE ON PERSCRIPTION DRUGS OR JUST PLAIN RETARDED AS HELL. Hillary is the only one decent enough to win.
You have got your facts wrong you big fat idiot. It's not over yet. Obvioously you don't know how the voting system works.
I am not American, but I follow the US presidential campaign. I must say I find Hillary a bit obnoxious and suspect since she is running for president. For one thing, I don't trust Bill and his irrational attacks in the media. Hasn't he done certain things in the past? I certainly don't want any scandals and affairs associated with the Clinton family. Hillary may not make the world a better place . Only Obama can understand us truly.
Obama is from my state, but I am a woman and one day I want the opportunity to be president. Putting Obama in there is not going to help me. Thanks to all the mother's who voted for Hillary, women need a chance to get past the men.
This is a perfect example of what is wrong with our voting system. Yes, Billary walked away with more delegates. But Obama actually won more states overall. It ought to be "winner take all" in each state.
It's funny to see how Hillary spins it, she was expected to have those states in her pocket, but he won a lot of states, and put up good numbers in the states he lost. I go back to her interviews with Katie Couric where she knew she was the inevitable one. The Obama supporters are fired up, and extremely happy at the outcome. We look forward to future primaries and caucus. It's also funny how she wants to debate daily, because she knows as time goes by people get to see him…and as the media has been saying, when Obama is given time he has the upper hand. It's going to be a very interesting race to the convention.
This is really how I feel, especially after the last seven years. If she doesn't win and I know she will..I want to lay down and die. I cannot stand to go through another 4 years with a cock in the White House.

Perez, do you know what you are talking about? Hillary Clinton is losing momentum, as demonstrated by her marginal victories in fewer states than Obama, and is running our of campaign funds. Barack Obama is gaining momentum, has more money, and may have the advantage. I appreciate your enthusiasm, but stick to what you do best: pop culture.
