…who McCain or Obama selects to help vet their vice-presidential candidates. What does this have to do with anything? Policy advisers are one thing, the choice for vice presidents yet another, but the choice for the individual who is going to help vet the choices for vice president is completely inconsequential. I don’t have television, so I don’t know how much play this story is getting, but the fact that this kind of non-sense has trickled its way down to me is rather disturbing.

CNN is reporting that Hillary Clinton will concede the race to Barack Obama today. Technically, she has only said that Obama “has the delegates to secure the nomination,” but I don’t expect she’s playing games here. Let the general election campaign begin!

CNN has a feature up now detailing the possibilities for both the Republican and Democratic vice presidential candidates. Unsurprisingly, their profiles are vastly inferior to our own. They also make the mistake of including Chuck Hagel. I know the media love the idea of a cross-over ticket, but Obama will pick a Republican as his running mate when hell freezes over. They also include Sam Nunn (Fmr. Sen-GA) on their list despite the fact that Nunn basically left politics in disgust twelve years ago. The MSM can do some really weird things sometime.

This is as late as I’ll be tracking the results out of Oregon. Right now, with 78% reporting, Obama leads Clinton by 16 points (58-42), and has a net gain of about 90,000 votes. I’ll wait until tomorrow when all the precincts are in to update his lead in the popular vote. Needless to say, CNN has already declared Obama the winner tonight in Oregon. With his firm majority of pledged delegates, you can expect to see a lot of superdelegate endorsements in the coming days.

CNN lays out the candidates’ fundraising figures for April. Obama brought in a respectable $31 million. He now has $37.3 million for the rest of the primary season, as well as an additional $9.2 million for the general election. Hillary Clinton exceeded expectations, raising $22 million for the month (though the campaign still owes roughly $20 million in outstanding debts). McCain set a new record for him, raising $18.5 million in April.

John McCain attacks Obama’s judgment and experience saying that Obama’s willingness to engage a dialog with Iran is “reckless.”

“Such a statement betrays the depth of Senator Obama’s inexperience and reckless judgment,” McCain said. “Those are very serious deficiencies for an American president to possess.”

Dear God, please no! No more debates, no more pointless questions and no more explaining for umpteenth time the difference between “rejecting” and “renouncing” someone’s support/statement. That said, I’ll give Clinton credit for proposing a Lincoln-Douglas style debate (no moderator). As far as I’m concerned, that’s how debates should nearly always be run (or at least a solid portion of any given debate). Obama says there won’t be anymore debates between now and the NC and IN primaries, which makes sense, given that talking directly to voters is at least marginally more informative than the forum for soundbytes that most debates take. I trust a regular Indiana voter to ask more relevant questions than anyone in the news media.

As an enormous lover of shrimp, I find this article at CNN disturbing. I’m not sure I understand how I’m to avoid shrimp that comes from these sweatshops, though. Are there specific brands? Is it frozen shrimp? Breaded shrimp? Raw shrimp?
