AP Reports that Obama Clinches the Nomination

Photobucket

This may qualify for a Captain Obvious Award among those following the race and still trying to get through a certain Vanity Fair article, but the Associated Press is reporting that Obama has the delegates to claim victory in the Democratic presidential nomination race.

Barack Obama effectively clinched the Democratic presidential nomination Tuesday after a grueling marathon, based on an Associated Press tally . . . based on public declarations from delegates as well as from another 15 who have confirmed their intentions to the AP. It also included 11 delegates Obama was guaranteed as long as he gained 30 percent of the vote in South Dakota and Montana later in the day. It takes 2,118 delegates to clinch the nomination. - David Espo and Stephen Ohlemacher, Associated Press Writers

How many "Do I look like Bill Clinton trying to look like JFK" pictures does Obama pose for each week?

Who do you want Obama to look in photos, like Zuma Dogg? Pictures are powerful ways to communicate. They last longer with people than words. I hope he's got the wisdom to appear presidential in all of his photos. It's what I expect from a president.

He's too inexperienced and I have no confidence in him. Neither he nor his wife deals well with stress and criticism. But faced with McCain, what else is there to do but vote for him?

Pictues aren't powerful if they're copies of old poses. Trying to look "presidential" is like looking at an empty suit. Substance matters, not carefully lit poses.
