THREE CLINTONISTAS CONTROL THE CONVENTION CREDENTIALS COMMITTEE, WHICH DECIDES ON THE SEATING OF DELEGATES -
Credentials Committee
Elected to chair the Credentials Committee are Alexis Herman, James Roosevelt, Jr. and Eliseo Roques-Arroyo. Alexis Herman served as U.S. Secretary of Labor from 1997 to 2001. She served as DNC Chief of Staff for Chairman Ron Brown and later was named CEO of the 1992 Democratic National Convention. Since 2005, she has served as a Co-Chair of the DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee and also served as a Co-Chair of the Commission on Presidential Nomination Timing and Scheduling. James Roosevelt, Jr. is President and CEO of Tufts Health Plan, a Massachusetts based Health Maintenance Organization (HMO) and was formerly Associate Commissioner for Retirement Policy of the Social Security Administration in the Clinton Administration. He is the chief legal counsel for the Massachusetts Democratic Party and Co-Chair of the DNC Rules and Bylaws Committee. Eliseo Roques-Arroyo, a native of Puerto Rico, served as Executive Assistant to Commonwealth of Puerto Rico Senate Minority Leader Miguel Hernandez-Agosto and to Puerto Rico Delegate to Congress Antonio J. Colorado. He is a former Executive Director of the Democratic Party of Puerto Rico and presently a member of the DNC.
The Credentials Committee is charged with coordinating issues around the selection of delegates and alternates to the Convention and will likely meet in the summer. The committee will issue a report that is the first official item of business at the Convention.
NOTE: Michigan and Florida have 313 delegates not yet in play.

She needs to win all remaining primaries with about 51% - maybe a couple of point higher (but no more) - of the vote - now that would really make things interesting.
She needs to do much better than that.
Hmmm. I guess the bullet through the top of Ron Brown's skull served to make her more loyal to the clintons.
You don’t like Hillary, do you Doug?
:-)
Go for it Hillary. After all, today Obama failed to beat you by more than 19%!
This may help answer the inquiry - http://youtube.com/watch?v=aqfGf-W5kiI
I know that Hillary will be the Democrat nominee.
I am just intrested in how they are going to steal the nominee from Obama.
Thanks Doug, I had never seen that.
I just did that one today.
And you're right, she is evil. Heaven forbid the woman gains any more power than she already has.
Actually, with 100% in, final count is 61% to her 38%. That’s a 23% spread. Obama is back! :-)
Obama will have more delegates even if he loses Pensylvania big and comes even with everything else.
Go to: http://www.cnn.com/2008/POLITICS/02/29/delegate.counter/index.html and find it yourself.
Does that include Hillary’s Florida delegates?
I’m not meaning for her to catch up - hence “now that would make things really interesting” - I’m meaning what she needs to do from our perspective to make things interesting - if she gets all of those declared victories she will use that as leverage with the super delegates all the way to the convention floor.
Look just above the chart. :)
But it’s more fun to look at the pictures and charts.
So Hillary has the lead among the volk.
Just another example of the WHITE democRAT keeping the brother down!
We need to shout that!
(Thank you, thank you very much!)
