Congratulations, Barack Obama! And bye-bye, Hillary.
But don't be sad, die-hard Hillary supporters—you've still got a presumptive presidential nominee who values Hillary's experience and her contributions to his campaign, who's willing to take Hillary at her word and rely on her judgment, who's eager to enlist her in his campaign to get to the White House.
That would be John McCain, of course. His campaign is already sending around the video of Hillary helpfully asserting that both she and McCain have "passed the commander in chief test," while Obama brings Americans nothing but "a speech he gave in 2002."
Hillary, demand what's due to you: a slot as McCain's running mate! Hell, you've done so much for McCain already—you deserve it.
