Clinton Expected to Suspend Campaign
Sen. Hillary Clinton "has summoned top donors and backers to attend her speech tomorrow night in an unusual move that is being widely interpreted to mean she plans to suspend her campaign and endorse Barack Obama," according to the .
"Obama and Clinton spoke Sunday night and agreed that their staffs should begin negotiations over post-primary activities. In addition to help raising money to pay off some $20 million-plus in debts, Clinton is known to want Obama to help out black officials who endorsed her and are now taking constituent heat, including, in some cases, primary challenges from pro-Obama politicians."
Update: confirms Obama and Clinton talked on the phone last night, but a spokesman says he just called to congratulate her on winning in Puerto Rico.
