Pennsylvania is a closed primary state and thus does not reflect the support of Sen. Obama by Indies. It’s obvious independents will determine who our next President is and Sen. Clinton just does not have our support.
I sincerely hope the Democrats listen to those of us who identify as Indies and the growing numbers of us.

I am in indie and I totally support Clinton. Who said you get to speak for all of us? We’re “independent”!

That is kind of like saying I am a white woman over the age of sixty and I am voting for obama. Good—-but white women over the age of sixty are more likely to support Clinton.
So if you are an independent supporting Clinton—fine. That is part of democracy. But it does not invalidate the idea that Obama is the one who has been registering new voters, young voters, and independent voters. Clinton has done all of that, too—just not as much as obama.
The unusually large turnouts for democrats in primaries and caucuses still bodes well for democrats in November—-and that will become more apparent as soon as the nomination is sewed up—-which will be soon.

I’m not saying Obama isn’t drawing independents. I take issue with someone announcing that as an independent they speak for all of us and that as a group we are unanimously supporting Obama. Ms. Woodruff has announced that Democrats should acknowledge that independents as a homogenous group are completely behind Obama, and that is not true.
