Sen. Hillary Clinton's decision to end her historic bid for the White House and ceding the Democratic nomination to Sen. Barack Obama, ends a long, often bitter battle for the right to challenge Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., in the general election.

Obama, D-Ill., who claimed victory after clinching the necessary delegates on Tuesday, will be the nation's first African American running with the nomination of one of the country's two major political parties.

Clinton's Bid for History Falls Short

Hillary Clinton, the former first lady and two-term senator from New York, entered the race over a year ago with the words, "I'm in it to win it."

Clinton quickly emerged as the formidable front runner, raising millions of dollars and leading in both state and national polls.

This is a very interesting account of the 2008 Democrat Primary race and there is a great response in this piece by Obama to Clinton's charge of his lack of experience. We know the same charge will be used against Trump and his response only need be similar. In fact what he is saying today is veru close to what Obama said in his response to Clinton in 2008.

Yes and I bet plenty of folks here refused to vote for McCain because he’s a RINO and Romney , as well.

They chose evil over bad.
