Shuler confirms, Etheridge uncommitted

Hillary hopes to overturn the primary election results of the voters by using super delegates. This is undemocratic and should be recognized as dirty politics. I feel bad for the Clintons as they were once people I respected. Now Heath Shuler under cover of his district's vote joins in this foul attempt. Yes I know his district went for Hillary but as a super delegate he is suppose to do what is best for the party. He and Hillary say we will come back together in November, but meanwhile they play dirty, and push us further apart. Why would Shuler pledge to Hillary when it will be over within a month with Obama the winner. He not only engages in dirty politics but doesn't think things through. I'm a strong Democrat but I'm done with Shuler!

Great respect for Congressman Heath Shuler as a man of honor, keeping his word to represent his district's vote- not pandering to the Obama left. Much respect for Shuler.

Shuler is a Clintonista regime operative...he is NOT to be trusted..Nancy Pelosi is pissed off with Heath...GOOD!!!

Obama supporters will do anything to win. .Even fraud?

Now, according to the Washington Post, here's Gary's Mayor, an Obama supporter:

Gary Mayor Rudy Clay said just now that it might take a while yet to finish counting the vote in Lake County, which includes Gary, and said tonight his city had turned out so overwhelmingly for Barack Obama that it might just be enough to close the gap with Hillary Rodham Clinton.

"Let me tell you, when all the votes are counted, when Gary comes in, I think you're looking at something for the world to see," Clay, an Obama supporter, said in a telephone interview from Obama's Gary headquarters. "I don't know what the numbers are yet, but Gary has absolutely produced in large numbers for Obama here."

Clay said the results were late coming in from Lake County because of the large numbers of absentee ballots that had to be counted -- about 11,000. Under local practice, all of the cartridges from voting machines in Gary and nearby East Chicago are first collected at the local airport before being driven to the county headquarters to be tallied with the results from the rest of the county, he said. He said there were no major technical problems holding up the count.

"It takes a little time. We want to be sure that every vote is counted fair and right," he said. "I just talked to the director out there and they are working like junkyard dogs to get that done as soon as possible. They are taking some time but I told them to do it right. That's what taking the time."

Why did they wait to start counting the absentee ballots?

Here's more:

In March, Clay predicted the race would come down to Gary, telling the Northwest Indiana and Illinois Times that tonight on CNN, "They are going to point at Indiana and say Hillary Clinton is leading by one point but Gary ain't come in yet."

Clay himself was deeply involved in get out the vote efforts this afternoon, going door to door to drum up anyone who hadn't yet voted, he said. A volunteer in the Obama office in Gary said that canvassers who went out today found that in some neighborhoods almost everyone reported having already cast an absentee ballot.
