hmm...let's see...
"Hillary Clinton's campaign is denying a report that the senator from New York is ready to concede the presidential nomination to Barack Obama tonight.
Clinton will concede that Obama, the junior senator from Illinois, has the delegates needed to secure the Democratic Party's 2008 presidential nomination, two campaign officials are telling the Associated Press anonymously.
The Clinton campaign, publicly, is denying the report.
'The former first lady will stop short of formally suspending or ending her race in her speech in New York City' tonight, the AP's Beth Fouhy reports. 'She will pledge to continue to speak out on issues like health care. But for all intents and purposes, two senior officials said, the campaign is over.'
Most campaign staff will be let go and will be paid through June 15, according to the officials who spoke to the AP on condition of anonymity.
The Clinton campaign is disputing the report about her intentions.
Terry McAuliffe, the Clinton campaign chairman, interviewed on CNN today, called the report '100 percent incorrect.'
But he did say publicly on NBC's Today show this morning that once Obama has the number of delegates needed for the nomination Clinton will indeed congratulate him and 'call him the nominee.'
So perhaps the operative term here is tonight -- or manana?"

When this all settles, I believe we will find a Senator with the Popular Vote, with the Electoral Vote Count and the strongest of the two candidates. This will put Senator Clinton in the right position to approach the Credentials Committee and ask them to reinstate the Michigan Delegates all 127. This will in turn put her in the lead and if the Super Delegates follow suit then she will come up with more Delegates then Obama at the Convention and Then Obama can become her running mate because he knows he will not beat John McCain in the Fall. He has to have the experience and as her VP he will get that experience and be able to run after he has gotten that experience. If she has two terms then he has two terms as VP then he runs for President and wins he could have two terms. It would be a really good thing for this country and would put this country back in the space it needs to be in.

We don't need Hillary to decide it's over. Math and reality have already done the job.
The nomination has been decided.
Obama 2008!
