I haven’t posted anything of a political nature at all recently.   Mostly it’s a lack of time and a sense of ennui that prevented me from doing so.

But last night the nominating process for the Democrats finally wrapped up with Obama surpassing the (new) magic number of delegates needed. 

Of course, Hillary hasn’t actually conceded yet.   Or really suspended her campaign.  Granted, her powerful surrogates are making noise about VP slots on the ticket (bad idea) and talking reconciliation, but no final definitive word that she wouldn’t try something on the floor of the convention.

Hurrah. 

Sadly, I wouldn’t put it past her to come up with some sort of reason not to really officially say that the race is over up until the convention. 

Got to love it.
