Text of Obama's speech Tuesday … Text of Democrat Barack Obama's prepared remarks for a rally on Tuesday in St. Paul, Minn., as released by his campaign:  —  Tonight, after 54 hard-fought contests, our primary season has finally come to an end.  —  Sixteen months have passed since …
Adam Nagourney / New York Times:
Next on Agenda Is Clinton's Role  —  Senator Barack Obama heads into the general election with obvious advantages: He is a Democratic candidate running in a sour atmosphere for Republicans, in a contest where voters are hungry for change and coming out of a campaign in which he filled arena after arena with supporters.

Josh Marshall / Talking Points Memo:
FRIGHTENINGLY SAD  —  Here at TPM HQ we're watching John McCain's prebuttal to Sen. Obama's speech tonight.  —  And, man, I'm curious to hear what other people think, but I really feel like he would have served himself much better by just going to ground for the evening.

Josh Marshall / Talking Points Memo:
FRIGHTENINGLY SAD — NOW ON VIDEO!  —  We've had a lot of requests for Sen. McCain's already-legendarily awful prebuttal to Obama speech.  And here it is ...  After much consideration, we've decided that tomorrow's episode of TPMtv will simply have to be a round-up of all the pundit response to the McCain trainwreck.
Andrew Sullivan / The Daily Dish:
The Clintons Threaten  —  The speech tonight was a remarkable one for a candidate who has lost the nomination, though not remarkable for a Clinton.  It was an assertion that she had won the nomination and a refusal to concede anything to her opponent.  Classless, graceless, shameless, relentless.
Matthew Yglesias:
Clinton's Speech  —  I probably shouldn't write any more about this woman and her staff.  Suffice it to say that I've found her behavior over the past couple of months to be utterly unconscionable and this speech is no different.  I think if I were to try to express how I really feel …

No shame, no gain  —  US elections 2008: On a night when Obama made history, Clinton's reaction was dangerously abrasive and selfish  —  The lead story tonight - my “lede,” as we spell it here - should have been about the remarkable fact that a black man has been nominated by a major party …

Hillary's Election Night Remarks in New York, NY  —  Thank you all so much.  Thank you and thanks so much to South Dakota.  You had the last word in this primary season, and it was worth the wait.  —  I want to start tonight by congratulating Senator Obama and his supporters on the extraordinary race that they have run.

Text of Clinton's speech Tuesday  —  By The Associated Press - 4 hours ago  —  Text of Democrat Hillary Rodham Clinton's remarks at a rally Tuesday in New York City, as transcribed by CQ Transcriptions:  —  Thank you.  Thank you so much.  Thank you all so much.  Thank you, and thanks so much to South Dakota.

Andrew Sullivan / The Daily Dish:
This Moment  —  If I needed reassurance that this man is the most formidable force in American politics today, his speech tonight confirmed it.  It was shrewd - with an artful positioning on Iraq.  It was graceful - with respect for McCain's service and Clinton's tenacity.
Discussion: Jay Currie
Ryan Singel / Threat Level:
McCain: I'd Spy on Americans Secretly, Too  —  If elected president, Senator John McCain would reserve the right to run his own warrantless wiretapping program against Americans, based on the theory that the president's wartime powers trump federal criminal statutes and court oversight …
SteveK / TVNewser:
“Russert Has Spent 20 Years Building Credibility.  All Of A Sudden He's Taking Questions From [A] Daily Kos Blogger?”  —  Tonight may be the last of the primaries, but the discussion of the cable news coverage will no doubt continue for months to come.  MSNBC has bore the brunt of much of the criticism …

Geoffrey Dickens / NewsBusters.org:
Chris Matthews: 'I'm Getting Giggles!'  —  On an evening where Barack Obama was on the verge of clinching the Democratic nomination and there was news that Hillary Clinton wanted in on the ticket, it was all too much for Chris Matthews to handle.  The “Hardball” host couldn't contain his glee …
