Closer than thought

Well, because of this, Clinton only netted 1 delegate in Indiana and Obama made that up with extra in NC. Unfortunately, today, her speech sounds a little pre-mature. There are reports that she has loaned herself extra money for the push and Tim Russert is saying that there is no way around the fact that Obama is the candidate. What is interesting is that they are finally starting to show that they should be with each other. Hilary said in her speech that no matter what she would support the candidate, so that is great news. The media portrayed the party divided and the two candidates helped a little, but now it is time to show a party supported top to bottom. Read the rest here: http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/24481004/

Obama takes resounding victory in N.C.

Clinton apparently wins in Indiana in close race, NBC says

That had made Indiana a virtual must-win state for Clinton, who was hoping to counter Obama's delegate advantage with a strong run through the late primaries. With 99 percent of precincts reporting, the former first lady led 51 percent to 49 percent.

"This primary season may not be over, but when it is, we will have to remember who we are as Democrats," Obama said, "because we all agree that at this defining moment in history — a moment when we're facing two wars, an economy in turmoil, a planet in peril — we can't afford to give John McCain the chance to serve out George Bush's third term."

"Well, tonight we've come from behind, we've broken the tie, and thanks to you it's full speed on to the White House."
