Barack Obama pushed close to victory in the marathon Democratic presidential race Monday on the eve of a final pair of primaries amid signs that Hillary Rodham Clinton was preparing to acknowledge defeat.
Said a confident-sounding Obama: “I told her that once the dust settled I’m looking forward to meeting with her at a time and place of her choosing.” That was from a conversation the two rivals had on Sunday night. He did not describe her response.
He also said he would begin thinking about a vice presidential running mate “the day after I have gotten that last delegate needed to officially claim the nomination.”
The former first lady gave no public hint of quitting the race, and she has said repeatedly she might continue her candidacy even beyond the end of the primaries.
But her husband, former President Clinton, strongly suggested otherwise. “This may be the last day I’m ever involved in a campaign of this kind,” he said as he worked for his wife in South Dakota.
Obama, bidding to become the first black major party nominee in history, was 41.5 delegates shy of the 2,118, needed to clinch the nomination at the party’s convention in Denver, according to The Associated Press count. He gained 5.5 delegates during the day Monday, including Rep. Jim Clyburn of South Carolina, a member of the House leadership who scheduled a formal announcement for Tuesday.
Obama’s aides prodded uncommitted lawmakers and other “superdelegates” to climb on board quickly — as Clinton struggled to hold back the tide.
Rep. Jason Altmire of Pennsylvania, who is uncommitted, said Obama’s goal was to be in position to seal the nomination Tuesday night, once the votes are tallied and delegates awarded from primaries in Montana and South Dakota. The first-term congressman, whose district voted for Clinton in the state’s April primary, said he would not be immediately joining the endorsers. “I’m not going to do anything before the results tomorrow night,” he said.
Clinton, the long-ago front-runner, was not far behind Obama in delegates. She had 1917.5 after adding two during the day.
But there was no doubt that the historic nominating campaign, pitting a black man against a woman, was nearing an end.
If nothing else, the candidates’ itineraries said as much.
The former first lady campaigned into the night in South Dakota, scratching for a primary triumph that could somehow persuade uncommitted superdelegates to back her, before heading home to New York for a post-primary appearance Tuesday night.
“I’m just very grateful we kept this campaign going until South Dakota would have the last word,” she said at a restaurant in Rapid City.
Obama looked ahead to the general election by campaigning in Michigan, a likely battleground state in the fall campaign.
He said that when he called Clinton on Sunday to congratulate her on her Puerto Rico primary victory, he broached the topic of a meeting.
“The sooner we can bring the party together, the sooner we can focus on John McCain and taking back the White House,” he said.
Obama stopped short of a flat prediction that he would be able to claim victory Tuesday night when the delegates were allocated after the day’s primaries. But he said, “It is my sense that between Tuesday and Wednesday we have a good chance of getting that number of delegates” needed for victory.
Obama arranged a Tuesday night speech in Minnesota, at the site of the Republican National Convention that will nominate Arizona Sen. McCain in September.
Democratic Party leaders watched impatiently from the sidelines, eager for a quick end to a race that drew record millions to voting booths but also exposed racial and other divisions.
Officials said that if Obama failed to gain 2,118 delegates by Tuesday night, one possibility under discussion was for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Speaker Nancy Pelosi and West Virginia Gov. Joe Manchin, who is head of the Democratic Governors’ Association, to issue a statement on Wednesday urging superdelegates — members of Congress and other party leaders — to state their preferences as soon as possible.
Clyburn, the senior black member of Congress, has long been presumed to support Obama. Confirming plans for a formal announcement, he said was lobbying other uncommitted lawmakers to endorse the Illinois senator.
Two Democrats also said Rep. John Spratt of South Carolina would join Clyburn in making an endorsement.
Additionally, a handful of uncommitted senators conferred to plan their next move in the nominating campaign. “A lot of us just feel that the sooner this is sort of put to bed, the sooner we have a nominee, the better off everyone’s going to be,” said Sen. Tom Harkin of Iowa, one of the participants.
Clinton has had a strong run through the late primaries, including a lopsided victory on Sunday in the Puerto Rico primary, and she has repeatedly declined to say she would concede defeat if her rival appeared to gain the delegates he needs.
A top aide, Harold Ickes, stressed over the weekend that the campaign reserved the right to challenge a ruling by the convention rules and bylaws committee that he said improperly gave a handful of Michigan delegates to Obama.
But in a conference call during the day with top donors, Ickes said that would probably not happen, according to one participant who described the conversation on condition of anonymity.
Even some of her strongest supporters counseled against it.
“If one candidate has the requisite number of delegates, both pledged and super, it makes it far more difficult to make the credible argument that she stay on in the chance that some superdelegates might change their mind and endorse her later,” said Hassan Nemazee, a national co-chairman of Clinton’s finance committee.
Ickes also conceded that Obama was likely to reach the delegate threshold by Wednesday, and that Clinton would need some time to consider her next step.
He said there was no political significance to a decision to invite staff aides who have worked for Clinton in primary states to either attend her rally on Tuesday night or return home for further instructions. But officials said the aides had been told they would no longer be paid.
“There are no more primaries so there is nowhere to send them,” Ickes said.
The former first lady arranged a private meeting with her donors on Tuesday, and was scheduled to address the national conference of the American Israel Public Affairs Committee in Washington on Wednesday.

When you publish a blog, RSS feeds are great ways to get your message out and connect with readers in your target market. RSS feeds allow you to broadcast out your messages, bring in new readers to your blog with an interest in your chosen topic, and build-up a committed reader-base, all at the same time. In addition, RSS feeds are a great choice of a variety of tools which can help with your SEO linking campaign.
One of the first things you quickly discover as a blogger is that a successful search engine optimization campaign can take up a ton of your time, and raise your frustration level to new heights, all at the same time. Many new bloggers generally start with the blog submit sites and even attempt manual RSS feed submit techniques, but eventually they all end up deciding that it is just all too much work to do with any real regularity. However, if they give up completely it really hurts their SEO efforts and their ability to grow and monetize their blog successfully. And, if they choose to do it half-heartedly or only occasionally, then it really isn’t a very successful to help improve their search engine rankings.
The problem with using a manual feed submitter, or using an individual RSS submitter even, is that it is very time consuming to deal with on a consistent basis. Most bloggers simply want to blog and get their words out to the world; they do not want to spend hours upon hours on their SEO and marketing efforts. By submitting your RSS feed to each site at a time, you can easily spend hours upon hours of time and never really get too much return for all of your work.
Software programmers, many of them bloggers themselves, have developed some great semi-automatic RSS feed submit tools which you can now choose from to help submit your RSS feed without it being such a time consuming proposition. These software programs allow you to simultaneously submit your blog and RSS feeds to literally thousands of directories, and to do it all with only a couple quick mouse-clicks.
Setting up the RSS feed submission software is a breeze and the submission process takes less than ten or fifteen minutes each day, from start to finish, making it much faster and easier than manual RSS submit attempts.
If you are a blogger interested in publishing RSS and getting your feed out into the RSS databases of the world, I would highly suggest that you check out some of the amazing new RSS software tools available to you today on the market. Choose a tool that is easy to use and one which will allow you to reach the maximum amount of directories possible for the least amount of hands-on work. Additionally, if you are taking the time to use more robust XML feed technologies, you want to use a semi-automatic feed submitter for those as well.
By remembering that your ultimate goal as a blogger or webmaster is always the most exposure and back links possible, for the least amount of your time, you simply cannot go wrong using a semi-automatic feed submitter. And, your search engine rankings will soar through the roof as a nice by-product of all of that exposure and linking.

Got a real treat today, gang. Ever see those flash stick figure fighter animations on the web? If not they’re a riot and Alan Becker, the master of stickflash kung fu, has a wickedly sick animation of his character coming to life and starting an extensive battle sequence with his animator and items on his computer. Amazingly talented, funny and animated, if you haven’t seen this, it’s a can’t miss.
And now here Nintendo Japan has a very Wii-like website for Mario Kart for the Wii. It’s in native Japanese but they make the shiny buttons almost as fun to press as the actual Wii buttons themselves. I’ve always been a fan of Princess Peach myself
I always thought if you’re going to have the stones to call a car “The Matrix” it better be the coolest car this side of Laurence Fishburne. It’s not bad…just not matrix cool y’know? What is cool, however, is their marketing campaign in the form of their ads and their flash site.
We’ve got Brajeshwar again this week with his article about Apple’s trepidation concerning their lack of Flash on the iPhone. They didn’t do it. Now say they want to do it. But can they do it? Ol’ Braj expounds upon the subject.
