A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away the talking heads assured us that Hillary Clinton was the inevitable nominee of the Democratic Party. The talking heads underestimated Obama’s considerable skills and intellect, his soaring oratory, his charisma, his self discipline and the incredible organizing talents that he and his top advisers brought [...]

Hillary Clinton can not face the reality of defeat. She lost. But she could not bring herself to do the right thing, the gracious thing, and concede the obvious. She preferred to make herself the story on Obama’s night. It is hard to believe that she really wants the VP spot on an [...]

STEPHEN OHLEMACHER of AP has an excellent article detailing how the Obama campaign studied, and mastered, the Dem Party rules concerning delegate allocation while the Clinton campaign simply went for the Super Tuesday knockout punch with insufficient analysis of the Dem’s proportional distribution rules and no Plan B in the event she did not wrap [...]

The Clinton campaign for the Democratic nomination is over. Even Talking Skull Carville knows the math and the momentum are against her. The Clinton’s open attempt to use race to attract more white voters has discredited her, her campaign and her husband’s legacy. Superdelegates will not tie party prospects, or their [...]

Talking skull James Carville has been the Clintons’ campaign official trash talker. First he dumped on Bill Richardson, calling him Judas. More recently he has decided to talk about “cajones” making negative implications about the Illinois Senator who is kicking Clinton butt out the door.
After shooting off his mouth so badly [...]

Wolf Blitzer allegedly wants to make the most of his Obama interview today and so he is asking for input, suggestions in what he should ask Senator Obama: Blitzer: What would you like me to ask Barack Obama?
I am guessing that after canvassing everyone’s input Wolf will ask Obama:
1) Impact of Reverend Jeremiah Wright
2) Why can’t [...]

Senator Barack Obama is the Democratic nominee.
The Clintons can keep trying to get up off the canvas but the round is over, the fight is over.
Barack Obama is the heavyweight champion of the Democratic party.

Despite the Clinton News Network’s constant focus, as per the Clintons’ campaign spin, on Indiana there are actually two state primaries today. Most “analysts” are predicting a narrow win for the Clintons in Indiana and a slightly larger win for Obama in North Carolina. If these educated guesses are correct then Obama’s [...]
