Twenty-four hours later, things had changed. Wednesday an announcement came that she would bow out and endorse Obama.

Clinton's communications director Howard Wolfson confirmed late Wednesday night that Clinton will thank her staff privately tomorrow before a public event Saturday. She's technically suspending her campaign. This allows her to still raise money and pay off millions of dollars of campaign debt. Even though she will officially surrender her Presidential ambitions, she is making a few demands.

"I want the nearly 18 million Americans who voted for me to be respected and to be heard," she said.

Barack Obama is now in a position to relax a bit and take the time to look for a Vice Presidential candidate. The Senator said he hasn't had much time to think about it so far and it is unclear whether or not he is considering Clinton as a potential running mate. Obama said that even though searching for a VP is on his agenda, this weekend his top priority is to take his wife on a date. On Wednesday, Obama named Caroline Kennedy and two others to lead his search for a running mate.

"We're going to go through a process-- in the Vice-Presidential search-- where I look at a whole range of options. This is one of the most important decisions I can make and I think it will signal how I want to operate my Presidency," Obama said.

Obama hits the trail today in a big swing state, Virginia, which incidentally is home to two Vice Presidential prospects: Governor Tim Kaine and Senator Jim Webb.

John McCain is asking Barack Obama to meet him in New York for a town hall debate next week.

"Just two Americans running for office in the greatest nation on earth responding to the concerns of the people whose trust that we must earn," McCain said of the debate.

McCain wants to hold ten of these town-hall format events this summer.
