It seems this is the end of the road for Ma. Clinton.
Reports internet-wide indicate that as of Monday, Clinton campaign staffers are being urged by the campaign’s finance department to turn in their outstanding expense receipts by the end of the week, an indication that the campaign wants to get its affairs in order and to initiate an end to the 15 month duel with Obama.
The campaign is in debt to the tune of about $11 million.
Some other reports indicate the opposite: ABC News’ Kate Snow and Eloise Harper report that Clinton spokesperson Mo Elleithee came to the back of the press plane as Clinton flew from Rapid City to Sioux Falls, South Dakota, and said: “I think its pretty clear that she is not conceding.” “I think its pretty clear that she is staying in this race. She is going, in the coming days, to be aggressively courting uncommitted superdelegates aggressively courting unpledged delegates, making the case to them that she is a candidate best ready to take on John McCain.”
When asked directly when Clinton will step aside, Elietthee told the reporters, “as she has said dozens and dozens of times she is in this race until we have a nominee…Until there is a nominee she is going to try to win support.” ….[MORE]
Meanwhile Obama told reporters that he spoke by phone with Clinton on Sunday, and that he congratulated her on winning Puerto Rico and apologized for the controversial remarks made by Father Michael Pfleger while speaking at his former church.
“I emphasized to her what an extraordinary race that she’s run and said that there aren’t too many people who understand exactly how hard she’s been working. I’m one of ‘em because she and I have been on this same journey together, and told her that once the dust settled I was looking forward to meeting with her at a time and place of her choosing. We’ve still got two more contests to go and I’m sure that there will be further conversations after Tuesday,” said Obama. ….[MORE]
On Tuesday night Obama will deliver a speech in in St. Paul, Minnesota — the site of the Republican National Convention that will nominate Arizona Sen. McCain in September.
“Minnesota is an important battleground state,” said Obama spokeswoman Jen Psaki. “The McCain campaign has made it clear they will compete there aggressively. We will too.”
Meanwhile “Slick Willy” is still in Attack-Mode: Bill Clinton exploded in response to this article “The Comeback Id,” by Todd Purdum of Vanity Fair.
He called the author “sleazy,” “dishonest,” “slimy” and a “scumbag!”
Finally, Ted Kennedy had what what his doctors termed a “successful” surgery to remove “most” of the cancerous tumor in his brain. The ‘Liberal Lion‘ suffered a seizure at his home in Hyannis Port, Mass. about two weeks ago, and was rushed by helicopter to Massachusetts General Hospital in Boston where doctors diagnosed brain cancer.
Good Luck Ted!
P/S: OBAMA - CLINTON TICKET 2008?

Despite being hopelessly behind in pledged delegates, and with practically no chance of winning this contest legally, Mrs. Clinton is still running around, drunk with “Voodoo” delegate permutations, claiming that she has won the Democratic primary.
It has also been reported that she has sent “uncommitted super delegates” a letter with polling data showing how and why she could be more competitive than Obama against John “McBOMB” McCain in the fall. In the letter she points to her wins in states like Ohio and West Virginia along with her strong showings among older women, Hispanics, rural voters and die hard “Reagan Bigots.”
She is also adamant that ALL the delegates from Michigan and Florida be seated at the August Democratic convention — falsely claiming that she “WON” the two contests, regardless of the FACT that both states (together with Clinton and Obama) agreed to a set rules before the beginning of the contest, and then went ahead and broke them. Furthermore, Florida and Michigan had ample time to fix what they messed up, but failed to do so.
A desperate Clinton, who has already inflicted so much damage, is still intent on shifting goal posts like a drunk ice hockey player, using baseless threats, lies, convoluted math and inflammatory allegations of Sexism, causing further damage to a fractured party.
Meanwhile, I have never heard Obama whine about the “Blatant Racism” and the “Death Wish” the Clintons have unleashed on him during this process — the race-baiting by Bill Clinton in South Carolina and by Hillary’s “hard-working whites” of West Virginia and Kentucky.
The list is long — See video below.
The new GOLD standard of the Democratic party has been a controlled gentleman all through.
Ma. Clinton — you deserve no sympathy!
Obama just plainly outsmarted you and the “Clinton Machine,” comprised of Bill, mayors, governors and scores of powerful political operatives who owe you an assortment of favors.
Even right-wing THUGS like Bill “O’Wino” O’Reilly, Sean “Cobra” Hannity, Rush “Fat-Drug-Addict” Limbaugh and the FOX News’s army of “MORONS IN HEAT” have chipped in abundantly, in your favor.
It’s time to give up Hillary — YOU HAVE LOST!

LAST SUNDAY: Father Michael Pfleger, a fiery liberal social activist and a white reverend at an African-American church — St. Sabina’s Catholic Church on the South Side of Chicago, and Obama ally, mocked Clinton’s tears from Trinity United Church of Christ’s Pulpit. Pfleger said: “Hillary cried because White Supremacy failed….. because she thought as a white person and wife of a former president she was entitled to the presidency,” said the priest. Watch Below:
