Inevitable Obama

May 21, 2008 By WRN Contributor

A UW-Madison expert says it now appears inevitable that Barack Obama will be the Democrats' choice for President.

Political scientist Charles Franklin says it would probably take a major scandal of some sort to keep the Democratic presidential nomination from Barack Obama. Franklin says the Senator continues to pick up super delegates across the nation and maintains a lead over Hillary Clinton for pledged delegates. He's predicting a flood of super delegates for Obama to pick up over the coming weeks.

Franklin says Hillary Clinton has also softened her rhetoric in the past week, and is probably looking for ways to "edge herself out of the race."
