Obama’s Campaign Manager gives State of the Race

This morning the Obama campaign held a conference call with national campaign manager David Plouffe to discuss the results from last nights primary and the events for the rest of the primary season. Plouffe stated that the campaign is less than 300 delegates, meaning pledged delegates and super delegates, away from securing the nomination. The end of the primary season will be June 3rd and they expect that day to tell all. He went on to state that Obama has a 30-16 record in victories while showing a very calm and composed and very confident demeanor on an Obama victory.

The main part of the call was a review of the numbers in states. Plouffe went through their victories and did the math to show that Clinton would need overwhelming victories to secure a nomination. The call seemed like a reaffirmation of their place in the race and to display that there is no shakeup in their confidence.
