Prospects of Democratic candidate, Hillary Clinton winning the US Presidential nomination have turned grimmer and dimmer with bad news breaking by the day. On Thursday, former President, Jimmy Carter drove a dagger through the heart of her campaign by indicating he would be supporting rival Barack Obama, even as African-American challenger outdid her famous fundraising ability by two to one, taking in $40 million in contributions to her $20 million in March, but her campaign received a big blow when Carter confirmed that his heart is with Obama.
Carter declared that he will cast his vote as a super-delegate in favour of the young senator. Carter is a super delegate and therefore could not disclose his choice but his comments left little to imagine and he surely sent the message that he was with Obama.

Quick! Grab an oar!
Oh that’s right, Carter never had his oars in the water.

I voted for this incompetent jerk and was so glad when he left office.
Unfortunately he is like that old SNL skit "the thing that wouldn't leave"!

Obama would be every bit as effective as Carter was, maybe.

It only stands to reason that Jimmuh Cahtah would vote for the communist Islamo- fascist.
This was very predictable. He's always sold out America to Islam.

I don’t get this comment. I thought lots of superdelegates have stated how they plan to vote. Hasn’t Dean even been encouraging them to do so?

Oh well. Since a Dem of Carter’s stature and International prominence, of such demonstrated superior judgment and leadership abilities is supporting Obama I’ll just have to follow suit. /extreme, intended sarc

How does Jimmy Carter voting for Obama make Hillary’s prospects “dimmer”? Is Carter that powerful within the Party?

I guess Carter didnt feel he had done quite enough damage to the United States himself and hopes now for someone to finish us off.
