Straying well off message, Missouri Rep. Emanuel Cleaver and Clinton backer says:
If I had to make a prediction right now, I'd say Barack Obama is going to be the next president. I will be stunned if he's not the next president of the United States.

He also pushed back on the notion Clinton should take her fight for the party's nomination all the way to the August convention — though he acknowledged that is not the position he is supposed to take.
"If I do the party line, I'm supposed to say — and maybe I'll say, just so if anybody hears it they can say well, 'Cleaver did the party line before he told the truth' — we believe that a contest going all the way to the convention is good for America."

Jeez, if she can't even keep her surrogates in line, one wonders:
- what's really going on inside her campaign behind closed doors
- how effective she would be managing a cabinet and White House staff
Add this to the list of obvious signs that the Clinton campaign is entering its terminal phase.
