AP: Clinton to Acknowledge Obama Has Delegates to Win; Clinton Camp: That's False
The AP is reporting that Clinton will acknowledge in her speech following the South Dakota and Montana primaries tonight that Obama has the delegates needed for the Democratic Party nomination. Terry McAuliffe said on NBC this morning that when Obama gets the delegates for the nomination, Clinton will concede. That suggests Clinton will shut down her campaign or suspend her campaign tonight.
Yet, McAuliffe just went on CNN and said, "the race goes on." He insisted that Clinton will only drop out or suspend her campaign when Obama officially gets 2,118. The Clinton campaign sent out a blitz to reporters backing McAuliffe up and saying Clinton will not concede tonight. But all of this insistence that the race doesn't end tonight is a bit silly. It will probably end tomorrow or Thursday, when Obama gets enough superdelegates to push him over the edge.
And finally, I want to reiterate something I said yesterday. When Obama gets to 2,117, every undeclared superdelegate in America is going to be calling David Axelrod hoping to be the deciding vote. I'll bet the campaign groups a whole bunch together in order to avoid a melee.
Update: AP also reporting that Obama has asked for a meeting with Clinton "on her terms" for "after the dust settles." Let the healing begin.
AP 11:40AM WASHINGTON - Hillary Rodham Clinton will concede Tuesday night that Barack Obama has the delegates to secure the Democratic nomination, campaign officials said, effectively ending her bid to be the nation's first female president. Obama is 40 delegates shy of clinching the nomination, but he is widely expected to make up the difference Tuesday with superdelegate support and votes in South Dakota and Montana. Once he reaches the magic number of 2,118, Clinton will acknowledge that he has secured the necessary delegates to be the nominee.
The former first lady will stop short of formally suspending or ending her race in her speech in New York City.
Jumping the gun again. But that's a game the kids play.
No reason to be a juvenile little whiner yourself. You never sound adult when name-calling on others you child.
Does this insulting post sound all grown up to you - you baby?
It is always what you pathetic loser Hill shills do.
What will you whine about tomorrow child?
*nevermind I really couldn't care less*
CBS 2 News has learned that Francis Cardinal George is temporarily removing Father Michael Pfleger from his position as pastor of St. Sabina Roman Catholic Church on Chicago's South Side.
CBS 2 Chief Correspondent Jay Levine reports the move comes after several days of deliberation and consultation by the Cardinal, who first learned about Pfleger's racially charged comments about Sen. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton from the pulpit of Trinity Unity Church of Christ last Thursday night.
Politics should stay out of church, but the RIGHT Wing conservative REPUBLICANS have been preaching politics in the churches for many many years and have gotten away with it, but this pastor takes a left position and is cast down. What is this world coming to? The truth sometimes just must be said.
MarthaA dear, we want change. Now is the time for change. There should be a wall of separation between church and state. You are just a hypocrite, not a true supporter of change. The Jewish rabbis must stop talking about politics and just talk about Torah and the place of women, as evidenced by the prayer("Thank God I was not born a woman.")
