US Presidential Primary: End for Hillary?
The battle reaching the final stage as the substantial numbers moving in favour of Obama, the first Afro-African candidate in the presidential race do to so.

As blacks and youth support overwhelmingly where as Hillary drives with women and senior people the race which yet to complete with six more primaries ahead.

However, the chances for Hillary are diminishing according to some calculations since super delegates weighing options in favour of Obama.

Meanwhile, Hillary seems to be in a defiant mood to backtrack from the race as she plans to pump more money in the race. She is attending to raise funds about $ 6 million to run the show further. Already ads are running at West Virginia and Oregon which seeks contests on May 20.

However, her aides privately accept that she is losing ground and the campaign may reach to nowhere.

Now Obama while increasing delegate strength his aides predict the finishing line being reached by their side.

Hillary is predicting that it is too early to rule out anything because six more contests remain and the wind may blow at her direction.

At the financial side Hillary campaign is an expensive one since she had ploughed down about $ 11 million so far along with her hubby, ex-president Clinton. McAuliffe the campaign chairman discloses that she willing to pump more money to win over crucial super delegates in her favour.

While it is reported slowly political pressure is mounting on her since funds are coming as faster as in the earlier occasions, secondly, lot of migrations from her side to the rival camp.

An aid says arranging meetings are difficult since many super delegates are non- committed, so far. Even to say several of them don’t wish to hear the pitch because they have already decided in favour of Obama.

However, big shots like Speaker Pelosi are in support of Hillary and say she has to decide, but the race is alive and well and continue for some more time.

In meanwhile the Obama camp launched to court super delegates where they visited earlier. Still with a lead 168 pledged super delegate support Obama is seems to be comfortable with numbers to reach the magical figure of 2025 delegate support essential for the nomination.

Of course this is the beginning of the end of her candidature in the race for the presidency. Obama is emerging like clear winner in the contest and USA is all set to have the first black president for the first time in the history.

No..it is not an end, the race is still open and Hillary can bounce back at any point of time. There is difference of few votes of superdelegates and Hillary Clinton will surely outshine Obama, the politically inexperience leaders in comparison with Clinton.

It’s boiling down to good old hard cash. Obama has been raising a helluva lot of funds and Hillary is finding it too tough to keep up with him. She’s digging into her personal wealth to keep her afloat. Let’s hope that she manages to comeback strongly. Having said that, that doesn’t very likely though!

Actually, I think this is more the end of the hope for Democrats to win this election.

The many Clinton supporters will NOT vote for Obama. If our party does not honor our wishes by not seating MI and FL delegates, and if our party does not put Clinton on the ticket, then why do we owe them any loyalty? We do not. They cannot count on us for our support in November. We will vote for McCain instead.

Obama cannot carry the many big states needed to win against McCain, and Hillary’s supporters will not forget any injustices shown to her by party leaders by voting against Obama.

Clinton takes Indiana by a ‘razor’ and Obama wins North Carolina by a huge margin. Nevertheless, Kentucky, Montana and West Virginia are still to come.

The Democratic race for nomination is still very much alive – and most likely to be decided by superdelegates

If you’re tired of waiting around for those super delegates to make a decision already, go to LobbyDelegates.com and push them to support Clinton or Obama

If you haven’t done so yet, please write a message to each of your state’s superdelegates at http://www.lobbydelegates.com
