[Anglican Mainstream] 6 June 2008--As the dust settles from last night’s final two primary battles for the Democratic presidential nomination, Sen. Barack Obama stands victorious over Sen. Hillary Clinton, having wrested from her the party’s pro-abortion, pro-homosexual mantle after a long and bitter campaign.

Obama now has enough delegates and super-delegates to clinch the nomination after the June 3 primaries where a narrow loss to Sen. Clinton in South Dakota was followed with a resounding victory in Montana just hours later. Obama has now won 2166 delegates to Clinton’s 1927 according to a CBS News tally, surpassing the threshold of the 2118 delegates needed to win the nomination.

The nomination was a bruising battle for Democrats, who had the difficult task of watching two ardently pro-abortion, pro-homosexual candidates slug it out for over five months in an historic primary race that would determine whether they would seek to relive the Clinton-era or move on to work for the election of the first black president of the United States.
