Second Female Senator Endorses Obama
quote[Freshman Sen. Amy Klobuchar of Minnesota, who recently voiced concerns about the rancorous tone of the Democratic primary, said she was forced to choose between two friends and picked Obama.
"Between Barack and a hard place, I chose Barack," she told reporters in a conference call. "He's able to dissolve the hard cynical edge that has dominated our politics under the Bush administration."
Klobuchar joins Missouri Sen. Claire McCaskill in backing Obama, who hasn't fared as well with white female voters as Clinton has in the primaries. The two presidential candidates each have the backing of 13 senators, who are superdelegates to the convention.]
He may be the underdog in PA, but he also has the momentum.

AIRPORT'S GIRL POET STUNNED BY SNIPER TALE AS INSULTED FELLOW BOSNIANS RIP 'LOW BLOW' LIE
quote[The Bosnian girl who famously read a poem to Hillary Rodham Clinton during her 1996 visit to the war-torn country is shocked - and her countrymen infuriated - that the former first lady claimed to have dodged sniper fire that day.
Emina Bicakcic, now 20 and studying to become a doctor, told The Post she stood on the tarmac at the air base in Tuzla, greeted Clinton and even had time to share the lines of verse she'd written - all without fear of attack from an unseen enemy.
"I was surprised when I heard this," Bicakcic said, referring to Clinton's assertion that she braved snipers upon landing, ducking and sprinting to military vehicles.]

Clinton Campaign running out on campaign bills
quote[Sen. Hillary Clinton’s (D-NY) presidential campaign has been delaying paying their bills, “earning the campaign a reputation of a deadbeat in some small-business circles,” according to Politico’s Kenneth P. Vogel. Tucker Carlson joins the Morning Joe crew to discuss the latest from the 2008 presidential campaign trail. The following video is from MSNBC’s Morning Joe, broadcast on March 31, 2008]
This does not bode well for her.

High-profile Obama backers urge Clinton to quit
quote[ A pair of high-profile backers of Sen. Barack Obama
have called on his rival, Sen. Hillary Clinton, to drop out of the race for the Democratic nomination for president.
Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vermont, issued the most unvarnished statement Friday, saying Clinton "has every right, but not a very good reason, to remain a candidate for as long as she wants to."
Sen. Chris Dodd, who sought the Democratic nomination for president himself but threw his support behind Obama after dropping out of the race in January, expressed a similar sentiment Thursday.]

McCain-Clinton A Tossup
quote[John McCain could become the first Republican presidential candidate to carry Connecticut in 20 years if Democrats nominate Hillary Rodham Clinton, a new poll shows.
A Quinnipiac University poll released Thursday found that Clinton leads McCain here by only 3 percentage points, while state voters favor Barack Obama over McCain by 17 percentage points. The poll's margin of error is plus or minus 2.4 percentage points.]
Wow!
It's about electability.

Democratic race over? Clinton doesn't think so
quote[Somebody forgot to tell Hillary Clinton the Democratic presidential race is over and Barack Obama won.
Obama has captured more state contests, more votes and more of the pledged convention delegates who will help decide which Democrat faces Republican Sen. John McCain in November's presidential election.
But Clinton, a New York senator who has flirted with disaster before in the back-and-forth nominating battle with Obama, shrugs off growing predictions of doom and still sees at least a narrow path to victory.
"I hear it in the atmosphere," Clinton said of the increasingly loud chatter about whether she should drop out and let Democrats focus on the general election campaign.]
When will she do the sensible thing?

B-52s have first album in two decades out today
quote[The band, which also includes vocalists Kate Pierson, 59, Cindy Wilson, 51, and Fred Schneider, 56, knows it’s a bit out of place these days. “Funplex,” its first studio release in 16 years, comes out today in a new music frontier that barely resembles the one they imagined on optimistic tracks like their 1983 single, “Song for a Future Generation.”
“We have to jump back into the void we left behind,” Schneider said. “We’ve gone through three different types of music eras or styles since we put out our last album. People watched MTV. Now everyone’s on the In-ter-net.”]
I'm listening to it right now and, so far, I like it.
