Obama clinches nomination, plans celebration

[submarinepainter]

WASHINGTON - Sen. Barack Obama of Illinois sealed the Democratic presidential nomination Tuesday, a historic step toward his once-improbable goal of becoming the nation's first black president. A defeated Hillary Rodham Clinton maneuvered for the vice presidential spot on his fall ticket.




Obama's victory set up a five-month campaign with Republican Sen. John McCain of Arizona, a race between a 46-year-old opponent of the Iraq War and a 71-year-old former Vietnam prisoner of war and staunch supporter of the current U.S. military mission.

I'm gonna party like it's 1999.
Turn back the clock and wipe out the era of W and get a libertarian in the White House.

Need a pretty high-profile libertarian to see that dream come true. I would be happier with Obama as President than McCain but I don't see him as a good candidate. He is still influenced by big business and hasn't given any real policy. All style litte substance I believe. Brian Moore for President!
