The Final Showdowns

Rumors are floating today about whether or not Hillary Clinton will abandon her race for the White House and concede to Barack Obama. Depending on which television network you listen to, they either seem to confirm or vehemently deny this is going to happen.

Regardless of the outcome of that part of the story, the final Democratic primaries are taking place today in South Dakota and Montana. These two states rarely have any kingmaking ability in the political arena so the states themselves seem uneasy about being in the spotlight.

They won't make or break the results, however, because even if Obama were to win 100% of the vote in both states, he still would be shy of the number of delegates needed to win the nomination. It will all come down to the last few superdelegates.

Sorry CNN and Fox News... after tonight, we won't need your magic walls for a while...
