Obama, Clinton Hold Private Meeting

clipped from www.npr.org Illinois Sen. Barack Obama and New York Sen. Hillary Clinton held a private meeting Thursday night in Washington. A spokesman for Obama says it was a chance for the two to talk about "bringing their campaigns together in unity." Obama attended the meeting after a day of campaigning in Virginia, where Democrats hope to re-draw the political map in November. Last night's meeting was the first chance for the Democratic rivals to have an extended conversation since Obama clinched his party's nomination on Tuesday. They tried to keep it quiet. Obama ditched his usual press entourage before the meeting. But he has been praising Clinton at every opportunity, and he makes no secret of reaching out to her supporters.

A lot of fences need to be mended in Clinton's concession speech tomorrow. For an idea on what I think she should do, let me plug my morning post -- warning, diehard Clinton supporters probably won't like it
