In what should have felt like a monumental and historic moment in United States, Barack Obama clinched the Democratic Nomination for President of the United States. However, didn't it seem anticlimactic? But now the general election starts, and we want your predictions today on The Doug Wright Show!
The 9 O'Clock Hour Rundown
The "Party's Over" for Hillary, and Doug lets Willie Nelson sing her back to the Senate. While, a historic moment took place last night, it hardly seems exciting. Doug thinks Hillary has sucked the air out of Barack's campaign and nomination announcement.
The sound clip of an enraged Hillary supporter exemplifies why Barack may need to pick her as vice president. A caller believes Clinton's refusal to exit the race was good for democracy, and Doug points out she is to blame for many of the controversies surrounding Obama.
Salt Lake County Councilman Joe Hatch, a Clinton supporter, talks to Doug about last night's results.
Joe believes a Hillary/Obama ticket would be best for the Democrats. It would help with the healing of those Clinton voters who are now angry at Barack.
A caller at the end of the hour points out that the reason he doesn't think that a black candidate securing the nomination is a big deal is because he has expected this to happen for so long. It was inevitable, just like Hillary Clinton's nomination used to be.
