Chris Cantell Discusses Politics: Clinton vs.Obama
by Jana Passova


Democrats start to worry that the long time running fight of nominations may decrease the chance of the party to win. Barack Obama and Hillary Clintom do not agree. Superdelegates are required to support a candidate who will win the primary contests. The question also is if delegates of Clinton from Florida and Michigan primaries will be able to participate in the convention vote. The most importatnt thing for Democrats is not to lose the general election. The Party of Democrats should not take any "decisions in the backroom" by the party elite. The Democratic Party punish delegates from Florida and Michigan because they were holding their votes before the date Feb. 5. It was announced by Nancy Pelosi, the House Speaker of the Democratic National Convention. But it should not be a big deal. Delegates of these states should not decite about the nominee. A candidate needs to have 2.025 delegates to win the democratic nomination. Barack Obama, a senator from Illinois, has 1.037 delegates. Hillary Clinton, wife of previous president of the U. S., has 953 Democratic National Convention democrates. These numbers came from an unofficial tally thegreenpapers.com. It is a nonpartisan Web site which is in charge of summary of election statistic. Almost 800 superdelegates are not counted. Clinton seems to lose her delegates. One of them Jonh Lewis, Georgia Congressman, who previously supported her wants to give his vote to Obama. And he is not alone. Now Obama is about 1 percent over Clinton in delegate count. Many of superdelegates are ready to support a person who will win the higher number of votes in primaries.
