Obama effectively clinches nomination


So depressing.

And you're saying that because you think Obama will give McCain a run for his money? Or because you supported Hillary? I thought you were a conservative lobbyist or something along those lines?

Like DSTCHAOS, I'm not buying it until I hear a concession from Team Hillary. All the news outlets are saying yes, but still nothing from either candidate.

I just want this over and done with already.

(good thing my Obama shirt came in the mail yesterday)

According to the news reports, its done, and she's already lobbying for the VP spot.

Congrats to Obama - I'm not a fan of his by any means, but it's been a fast rise up the political ladder for him. I'll be interested to see what he says at the Convention.

I'll also be interested where they place Hilary in the speaking program at the Convention. Has she angered enough people that she gets a bad spot, or will she still be one of the featured speakers? Will she try to bring the party together, or will she be divisive?

Congrats to Obama! I am not a Hillary-hater, but I have admittedly grown to dislike her over the past few months. Which is noteworthy considering she was my pick at the time of my state's primary. A lot has changed since then, and I would honestly prefer she not get the VP job either at this point. But I would have voted for the dem candidate either way, so I'll survive if she is offered VP.

cause Obama's gonnaaaaaaaa... WIN!


sidenote: McCain has some lame ass supporters in Louisiana. they cant decide on what they want to chant when he says something they agree on and their applause is weak. it sounds like an early episode of Jerry Springer, the audience is just off. it's like they... don't believe him...

who wouldve thunk it?

ETA: i just LOVE how McCain is sh*tting all over Obama's campaign, yet repeating his slogan "Change we can believe in." and umm, isnt his slogan "a leader we can believe in?"
