McGovern Urges Clinton to Drop Out

Former senator and Democratic presidential nominee George McGovern is urging New York Sen. Hillary Clinton to drop out of the Democratic race.

McGovern decided to switch his support from Clinton to Obama, he said, after Obama carried North Carolina and came within three percentage points of Clinton's victory in Indiana.

"We need to concentrate on a unified party that's capable of winning the White House," he said. Clinton has "made a great valiant race for the nomination. So has Barack Obama. It would appear to me that he has all but won the nomination."

Although McGovern said he had left a message for former President Bill Clinton, he had not yet spoken to either of the Clintons.


Yes. It's time.
