Why America is making history tonight

by Chris Matthews

I think our colleague Ron Allen said it best: “Every time I look at my Blackberry, it seems another superdelegate has gone over to Barack Obama.”

It’s been exactly five months to the day since voters in Iowa went to the polls on January 3 and opened the primary and caucus season. Tonight, South Dakota and Montana close the curtain on the voting. No more caucuses, no more primaries.

There are two big questions for tonight. The first is, will Obama win enough delegates tonight to win the Democratic nomination?

The second big question, what will Hillary Clinton do? Will she bow tonight to the impossible math confronting her or will she keep on fighting at least for a few more days? And of course, if and when Hillary does get out, will she press for number two? Late today, the Associated Press reported she told Democrats, “I am open to it.”
