The Democrats Have A Nominee

I've been saying for some time now that Barack Obama will be the Democratic nominee for President in 2008. Daniel Henninger of the Wall Street Journal makes a more eloquent case for the very same thing in yesterday's edition:

The people have already spoken for Obama -- he leads in the popular vote, pledged delegates, states won and...fundraising. It's this last and oh-so-important category that has brought heavyweight superdelegates like former Senators Sam Nunn and David Boren over to Obama's side. Like it or not, it's going to take money, real money, to defeat the Republicans in the fall and Obama has proven that he can raise money across a wide spectrum. Add to that class, grace and humility and he far outpaces Senator Clinton in every meaningful way.

There are still far too many superdelegates on the fence (at least publicly), something which will likely shift over the next several weeks. By then, we should be addressing The Man for all Reasons as "the Democratic nominee for President of the United States, Senator Barack Obama!"
