RAPID CITY, South Dakota (Reuters) - It's almost over, isn't it? That seems to be all anyone wants to know from the Sen. Hillary Clinton's presidential campaign, but the only person who truly knows isn't telling.

"I'm sort of a day-at-a-time person, and we'll see when Tuesday and the day after Tuesday comes," Clinton said on board a late-night flight to South Dakota, where she planned to spend the last full day of the primary season campaigning.

The last two Democratic primaries are on Tuesday in South Dakota and Montana. "My political obituary has yet to be written, and we're going forward," Clinton said. "It is not over 'til it's over."

By most accounts, it is over.

3. MSNBC first read confirms that Clinton will be in NYC on Tuesday Night
From NBC's Mark Murray
It's official: The Clinton campaign has announced that Hillary will hold her Election Night celebration tomorrow night in New York City, at the Baruch College Athletic & Recreation Center.

*** UPDATE *** Just to clarify, this is the event Clinton will hold the night of the Montana and South Dakota primaries. Her campaign is billing it a "celebration."

10. Celebration of the end
Edited on Mon Jun-02-08 10:34 AM by high density
"Thank God it is over."

Does Senator Clinton think it is worth it? She prolonged this race for about three months longer than it had to go, which wasted time and money that could've been put to use fighting John McCain.

Vilsack says it's over

Posted: 10:51 AM ET

http://politicalticker.blogs.cnn.com/2008/06/02/vilsack-says-its-over/



(CNN) – Former Iowa Gov. Tom Vilsack, one of Hillary Clinton's most ardent supporters, said Sunday it's time for Hillary Clinton to acknowledge she has lost her bid for the Democratic nomination.

Vilsack, who was briefly a presidential candidate himself last year, told the Associated Press it's "pretty clear that Senator Obama is going to be the nominee."

"After Tuesday's contests, she needs to acknowledge that he's going to be the nominee and quickly get behind him," Vilsack also said.

Vilsack first announced he was running for president in November, 2006, but dropped his bid three months later after the Democrat failed to drum up a significant level of support or raise the necessary campaign funds needed to compete. He endorsed Clinton shortly after and played a key role in the New York senator's unsuccessful Iowa campaign effort.
