• Dukakis: It's Probably Obama in '08...- New York Observer - "All I can tell you is at this point it looks as if he is likely to be the nominee. Florida and Michigan are off the table. I mean, how many times do you move the goal posts?"
• Nail Biters: Must Read: "O Heads for SuD Edge"- Wall St Journal - "If he doesn't stumble, enough elected Democrats are expected to back Sen. Obama after the last primaries June 3 to give him the delegate majority needed for nomination."

• O: 'I've been taking some hits'One of the things that I learned in the school yard was: the folks that are talking tough all the time, they're not always that tough.
• C tearing down O = "irreversible harm"A... general sense that Clinton's only route to victory would be throug tearing down her opponent, has led even some black Democrats who are officially neutral in the race... to speak out.
• Big C Fundraiser Defects to O.He was uneasy with the tone of the Clinton campaign and was beginning
