Yep. We really are in for a show. Inside and outside. This will really embolden the PUMA activists and I bet e-mails and phone lines are burning up right now...

Hillary’s To Do List:

This wasn't something she was itching for, looking for. But so many of her supporters said it was important to them. And the Obama people got how important it was to smooth over any tensions and that it was the right thing to do

I wonder if the Obama people will still think that when the convention is over...

It means, watch out for a barage of negative and damaging stuff about Obama to come either trickling or gushing out. Hillary is still not out of the game....

From the article:

... What has been settled, however, is that after both Clinton and Obama names are placed into nomination there will be a roll call vote.

I wonde why Obama would even take that chance ?

If bad blood between the Clinton and Obama camps persists, it’s highly unlikely that an Obama defeat this fall would lead inexorably to a Clinton nomination the next time. Obama’s shrewd announcement Wednesday of former Virginia Gov. Mark Warner as the convention keynote speaker has a bearing on this. It not only gives a central role to a moderate Democrat from a swing state, it also points to a future that transcends the Clinton-Obama feud.

Clinton must know that she could have won the Democratic nomination with a more coherent strategy. And her own campaigning for Obama suggests she understands that the actual nominee should not have to inherit her campaign’s circular firing squads.

Much depends upon whether she can now persuade her followers to grant Obama’s nomination a legitimacy that her own campaign worked so hard to deny him.

Barry Sortero shouldn’t let Hillary do this.

Then they should include John Edwards name as well...

Any vote that isn't binding will only be a sour grapes vote that will damage obama without helping hillary get the nomination.

If that's what they've agreed to, I guess obama only had two choices: a real vote that he'd lose or a non-binding vote that he'd win at great expense.

from the comments section...LOL

I'm not so proud of my country now... Can my husband please get the nomination and be handed the presidency by the media so that my proud-o-meter can go up for the first time in my adult life?
