Posted: By the less popular winner of the popular voteNEW YORK CITY -- In an address to her supporters and campaign staff last night as Sen. Barack Obama achieved the "magic number" of delegates to claim the Democratic presidential nomination, Sen. Hillary Clinton graciously conceded that the election isn't over.
"I called Sen. Obama a short time ago and wished him well," Clinton said to a loud chorus of boos from her supporters. "No, no, no. Come on, people. Let's give credit where credit is due. He has run a fantastic race, and I have made clear to him that I will do everything in my power to support the Democratic nominee this fall."
"And I've asked him to do the same," she added.
Obama, en route to the site of his historic speech at the Xcel Energy Center in Minneapolis to claim the nomination, simply rolled his eyes.
"Are you f***ing kidding me?" he said to a pool reporter on his campaign plane. "I give up."
