Well, it looks like half the 2008 presidential race is figured out. McCain clinched the Republican nod...no major surprise there.
On the Democratic side, it appears Hillary has a slight bump in momentum, but Obama is still ahead in delegates and neither is yet close to the number needed to secure their nomination.
My opinion? A McCain-Clinton match up would be far less interesting than McCain-Obama. Clinton and McCain are two "old pols" it seems...Obama may provide more contrast. It's time for a new generation in the "upper level" of American Politics.
It'll be interesting to see the rest of this race play out.

yeah, I talk about politics a bit too much I think.
That being said, I keep hearing people say 'Obama-Clinton' as a ticket (or vise versa). I can't see that happening. Mainly because how would they win? They both are from the Northern States. McCain would clean up in the South. Plus I wonder just how well the two of them would actually work together. Oh well, its fun to watch!
This is totally off topic, but I got your messages yesterday morning. Sorry, I was on the phone with my aunt and didn't get back to responding. Then tonight The Guy was screensharing my Mac with me trying to figure out why my Airtunes he gave me wasn't working when you IM'd me. I want to chat, though, I wasn't blowing you off.
This has been the most fascinating election. I haven't paid as much attention to any other in my lifetime. This is historical. By the way I really like your blog and wish you luck from a fellow Minnesotan. Cheers!
