Dominique Calls It For Obama

Dominique and I have knocked heads. But I know for sure that she is a better person than I am, because I would not have been this gracious if things went the other way.

Tonight Barack Obama won the North Carolina primary by a huge margin. I really hope Hillary decides to drop out of the race. It is so painfully clear that there is no way for her to win regardless of what happens going forward. The exclusion of Michigan and Florida leaves Barack Obama with an insurmountable delegate and popular vote lead. Even if she managed to somehow convince superdelegates to throw their support behind her because of her strength as a candidate, she’d be accused of having “stolen” the election.

The Democratic National Convention will take place on the 45th anniversary of Martin Luther King, Jr.’s beautiful “I Have a Dream” speech. During the convention, Barack Obama will be named the nominee to represent the Democratic Party in the general election. Regardless of which candidate you support, which party you belong to, or what happens in the general election, there’s something very fitting about that.
