AP Reports Obama Wins Democratic Nomination

According to their tally sheets, the Associated Press is reporting this afternoon that Barack Obama has won enough delegates to become the Democratic nominee for President. However, Hillary Clinton is claiming a 25-point landslide against Obama in the South Dakota primary today, which places the AP's story into question.

Pressure is mounting on Hillary to show up in St. Paul tonight and concede the nomination to Obama.

Hillary, on the other hand, is saying she will concede only if Obama reaches a total of 2118 delegates, which includes regular delegates and super-delegates.

There is some question as to whether or not Obama can reach that figure with today's primaries.
