Political bits II

John McCain would be crazy to pick Condi Rice as his VP.

If the words of James Hoffa, leader of the Teamsters, are any guide, the Obama backing unions are going to hang Penn around Clinton's neck.

(Politico) The SEIU (backing Obama) is putting $740,000 into literature and canvassing in Pa.

(Politico) The Democrats have never won "white men" with Bill Clinton winning only 38%.

(WSJBlog) Obama's stretching his lead in the national tracking polls.

(Ambinder) McCain raised all of $15 million in March. (McCain clinched on Mar. 4, so there was no great rush of celebratory support.)

Do I believe that John McCain called his wife a "c***" in front of reporters?

And, two interesting reads. Kos' Newsweek column (the long primary hasn't been bad for the Dems, but Clinton can't win,) and John Dickerson in the WaPo anecdotally talking about past candidates' decisions to end their campaigns.
