Hillary's name to be placed in nomination
 Heh heh heh....and so it begins...WASHINGTON - Hillary Rodham Clinton's name will be placed in nomination along with nominee-in-waiting Barack Obama at the Democratic convention in Denver, an emblematic move intended to unite the party after a divisive primary fight. Democrats will officially nominate Obama at the convention but the state delegations will do a traditional roll call for his vanquished opponent as well. Don't make a move until you get the secret signal. You'll blow The Plan... The arrangement -- which the rivals-turned-allies agreed to after weeks of negotiations -- is intended to help the Democratic Party heal after a bruising primary while mollifying still-disgruntled Clinton backers and acknowledging the former first lady's groundbreaking presidential run. Yeah. I'll bet that's what Vince Foster thought too when she said she'd meet him at the park...and come alone. "I am convinced that honoring Senator Clinton's historic campaign in this way will help us celebrate this defining moment in our history and bring the party together in a strong united fashion," Obama, an Illinois senator, said in a joint statement. Suuuure, Barry. She told you that, right? Added Clinton, a New York senator: "With every voice heard and the party strongly united, we will elect Senator Obama president of the United States and put our nation on the path to peace and prosperity once again." Yeaaaaah...Peace and Prosperity! That's the ticket! Some 35 million people participated in the Democratic primary, and Obama and Clinton said they wanted to "honor and celebrate these voices and votes." I can see it now on nomination night..."Damn! What's that crazy white bitch doin!" Posted by: tu3031 2008-08-14 |
