**Special Report: Live From Montana

The long road to the Democratic nominee will likely be settled as early as Wednesday morning. Neither candidate will reach the magic number of delegates by the end of voting tonight to secure the party's nomination. CNN is reporting that a score of super delegates will begin endorsing Senator Obama as soon polls close tonight.

The debate of an Obama/Clinton dream ticket is beginning to pick up steam. Pundits and advisors from both campaigns have publicly entertained the idea but no firm commitment from either camp has been given. Looking at the numbers and exit polls from the primaries held from the beginning of March to now, all the numbers point towards the practically of a joint ticket. As the NY Times reported this past weekend, Senator Clinton has won more states (7 out of 13) and more votes (6.7 million compared to 6.1 million) than Senator Obama. By the end of the day, Clinton will have around 17 million votes. She has built a movement of her own and it is a fact that cannot be ignored.

Obama has galvanized and attracted first time voters, but to go against John McCain and the Republican force, he cannot just rely on his own voting bloc. He is going to need the Latino, blue collar, women, and senior votes. These groups have consistently voted for Clinton in this primary season and with her credentials she is the best candidate to secure these votes for an Obama presidency.

Unity has been a word the Democratic party has been tossing around the last few weeks in an attempt to appease worries of a divided party. The best form of unity is to bring together two opposing forces with over 34 million votes between them. Both candidates repeatedly say that this election is bigger than themselves and it is an important moment in U.S. history. If either candidate is genuine in their comments then all talks about Obama's camp's dislike of the Clintons is not productive. Unity means bringing together opposing forces and working together for a common goal. That goal should be working to restore the U.S.'s image domestically and internationally. If anything has been learned from this primary season, it is that the U.S. is ready for change, and what a refreshing change an Obama/Clinton ticket will be.
