The Clinton campaign has announced that Hillary Clinton will suspend her campaign for the Democratic Presidential nomination on Saturday.

In an email sent to Clinton supporters, she said that she would like to "extend my congratulations to Senator Obama."

This announcement made by the Clinton team comes as Barack Obama, the presumptive Democratic nominee, says that he is 'honored' to be the nominee in the election.
