Some updates:
Most media outlets are declaring a win for McCain in Florida [Washington Post]. I’m waiting for concession spam from Floridians for Immigration Enforcement.
Meanwhile, the Hillary Clinton Media Outlet is declaring victory for HRC and washingtonpost.com’s Dana Milbank is not amused:
But in a political stunt worthy of the late Evel Knievel, the Clinton campaign decided to put on an ersatz victory party that, it hoped, would erase memories of Obama’s actual victory in South Carolina’s Democratic primary. “Thank you Florida Democrats!” Clinton shouted to the cheering throng. “I am thrilled to have this vote of confidence.”
Honestly though, what is she suppose to do? I’m pretty sure this whole primary dates mess is not the Clintons’ fault (thought my staff is factchecking) and it’s important Democrats across the nation understand the level of support HRC has in such a key state, so can you blame her?
And an update on the importance of a Sebelius endorsement for Obama following her rebuttal last night…just check out the comments section and you’ll understand that her star didn’t exactly continue its rise [HuffingtonPost.com]. And I’d have to agree, Obama is still the next Obama.
