Speculation Tally: 34 (House) + 17 (Senate) = 51 Super Ds to endorse Obama this week
If the rumors are true (34 per MSNBC) (17 per CNN), then Obama will have enough delegates (along with MT and SD) to declare victory, and get to the magic number of 2,118. For ONCE, let the information of a "stampede" of Super Ds be true!!!

2. But Politico is throwing cold water on a Hillary concession
http://www.politico.com/blogs/bensmith/0608/Clinton_rejects_concession_buzz.html

I think this is the most truth part of the post:

Other Clinton aides, however, cautioned Monday that none outside Clinton's tight inner circle -- her husband, daughter, and two or three aides -- are sure what she's going to do. Many of her staff and supporter expect her to leave the race this week.


Nobody knows.

6. There is no reason to believe it all won't be over tomorrow.
Clinton has kept the campaign in a state of chaos, but she's run out of places to move the goalposts.

7. I almost hope they hold some of those announcements
until after the polls close in the first state and then allow whichever of the two states are left put him over in pledged delegates. Yes, it might be a bit difficult, but I'm sure by 6 or 7pm MT they'll have a good idea how many delegates will put him over.
