Live Blog from the Anchor Desk 6/2/08
After six months and 61 contests, the Democratic primary season ends tomorrow with contests in Montana and South Dakota but will there be a nominee? Barack Obama is just 42 delegates shy of the 2,118 now needed to clinch the nomination. There are not enough pledged delegates at stake tomorrow to put Obama over the top, but don’t forget about the superdelegates.
And Bill Clinton is fighting back against the man who wrote an article about him in Vanity Fair. He called the reporter sleazy and charged he didn't use a single name or cite a single source for the accusations he makes in the article. But Clinton didn't just target the author, he also went after Barack Obama, calling it “...another way of helping Obama. They had all these people standing up in this church cheering, calling Hillary a white racist, and he didn't do anything about it.” We’ll talk about that and the fact that Sen. Obama has resigned from that church with the best political team on television.

If Hilary does lose, she should just go on a 6 month vacation and start planning her presidential campaign platform for 4 years from now after the first McCain term.
Good discussion on the show and on the blog.
Erica, wild discussions....yes , but again the emotions and passions would tend to block any real policy change, in my humble opinion
I hope Kennedy makes a full recovery.
It is wonderful to hear Sen. Kennedy is doing well after his surgery
