It is Obama, but Clinton does not go quietly

So how did Clinton end up second? Here's a take from the Wall Street Journal:

Here's a very negative reaction to Clinton's speech from the Guardian in the UK:

And here's a thoughtful piece on how amazing it all is, given a long look at American history:

With the General Election now started, I'm sure that the candidates are viewing all of their options for their running mate. If you want to see what America thinks who should be the VP for either dems or reps, you should go to http://www.votenic.com They started a VP poll last week, and the results from that poll have just been posted. This poll is honest and represents all of America. Help your favorite candidate choose his/her running mate.

I would like to see Obama choose someone who could bring a state, a constituency and be in sync with his message. Someone like Gov. Kane of Va. who was on board early could help turn Va blue and help change the electoral map. Would not mind Gov. Rendell; he was a great campaigner, solid supporter of Hillary and is well respected in Pa.

Who selected the clown?? Moveon and Soros. Hillary should be the nominee. Look at the purpose of conventions, to elect a nominee. She belongs on the roll call like Ted Kennedy was and many others. The convention chooses the nominee.
