The Nominee: It’s Finally Over
Updated June 4th, 2008
Sen. Barack Obama made history last night, becoming the first African-American nominee for president from a major party. Of course, he still not technically the nominee, and not only because the Democratic party won’t hold its nominating convention until August. Sen. Hillary Clinton took some of the spotlight last night, saying that she has not made any decisions about the future of her campaign.
Much of the conversation about Sen. Clinton now centers on whether she will become Sen. Obama’s running mate. Whoever winds up on the ticket, they’ll have to face a Republican party that’s had months to rally around Sen. John McCain while the Democrats drew out their nomination battle. We’ll have full coverage of the presidential race and all the latest details tonight at 7 p.m. Eastern. |
