AP Calls It For Obama

Filed in National by on June 3, 2008

WASHINGTON (AP) – Barack Obama has effectively clinched the Democratic presidential nomination, based on an Associated Press tally of convention delegates.

The tally put Obama over the top Tuesday, ahead of the results from the day’s final primaries in Montana and South Dakota. The Illinois senator becomes the first black candidate ever to lead his party into a fall campaign for the White House. Obama outlasted former first lady Hillary Rodham Clinton in a historic contest and now faces Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona for the presidency.

    Also in today’s news: Birth of a Conspiracy Nation

    It is amazing how familiar it all is.

    What is this “equality” this woman talks about? Is the Hillary nutcracker worse than the Curious George t-shirts? Why can’t women take the same kind of abuse men have to take every day?

    I wish we had a TV network that we could put a bunch of crazy Republicans on to (further) discredit thr GOP.

    I once had a tee shirt with a picture of Reagan and a bottle of ketchup which asked: Which one is the vegetable?

    And, Al… careful with the stereotypes. As in why can’t SOME women.

    Gotcha! 😉

    That clip is fascinating to watch Caputo treat her with kid gloves — like she might snap and beat the shit out of him on live TV. It is FoxNews, but it was as though he really understood that this was not a performance with someone who knew the Fox script already — he seemed to be really careful.

    Harriet was absolutely disgusting. Is this what Hillary is left with? If so she can keep them. I will not court the vote of people like that woman.

    The part about AA not knowing why they were voting for Obama (other than he’s black) was particularly repulsive.
