Last night Barack Obama won the nomination. As super delegates switched to him throughout the evening it was clear he had secured the nomination even before the final two primaries rolled in. Following the announcement there were speeches given by John McCain, Hillary Clinton, and Obama. McCain gave an uninspiring speech before [...]
