NY Times reports unnamed Clinton associates say she’s resigned to losing and will drop out and endorse Obama next week. Which is no big surprise. All the current storm and fury signifies nothing except that she expects (and probably should get) a plum post in the Obama Administration or maybe be VP. The Telegraph UK [...] Senator Hillary Clinton apologized for referring to the assassination of Robert Kennedy in 1968 as a reason she should continue her battle with Senator Barack Obama for the Democratic nomination. Representative James E. Clyburn of South Carolina, reacting to Mrs. Clinton’s comment through a spokeswoman, said only, “This is beyond the pale.” She’s passed into [...] Call DNC Chair Howard Dean and Tell Him to Stop the Clinton Campaign’s race-baiting In the last few days, a desperate Clinton campaign has turned to race-baiting as its primary strategy.
