Senator Clinton could only watch as superdelegates came forward during the day for Obama uniting behind the likely nominee. Obama chose the city that will host the Republican National Convention this summer as the home of his victory speech on Tuesday. Obama spoke before a ruckus crowd of diverse people inside of a packed arena of more than 17,000 in St. Paul, Minnesota. ?You chose to listen not to your doubts or your fears, but to your greatest hopes and highest aspirations.

2008-05-31 22:01:00

Bon appetit. with the exception of a new zombie-busting uppercut though, the game mechanics look strikingly similar to Resident Evil 4. That's no bad thing, but hopefully Capcom will have more than HD visuals and an inadvertently controversial location to ensure this game is a worthy successor to its brilliant predecessor.
