Deal: Clinton's Name Will Be Placed in Nomination at Dems Convention

August 14, 2008 11:09 AM

ABC News' Kate Snow reports: A deal has been brokered between Sens. Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton that will allow Clinton's name to be placed in nomination at next week's Democratic nominating convention, sources close to the Clinton camp told ABC News.

"Both sides agree that it is in the best interest of party unity and making sure that everyone's voice and vote is honored to make sure her name is put into nomination," a person close the negotiations said. "It's to honor everyone who worked so hard on both sides."

Time to get the rumors going that hillary is stealing delegates behind the scenes..

[myuhaul]

Article says “roll call vote” !!!

Obama is foolish to agree to this.

Acclamation is where everybody says “Yay!!!!!”, and it’s done..........That has been the way it’s been done since like forever. There hasn’t been a brokered convention since 1968?............

[Jim Noble]

Obama is such a dope.

[rjp2005]

Called it!!! Woohoo!

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

What has also been hashed out is that at some point during the convention, Clinton will release her delegates officialy to Obama and that she will make it very clear that she is voting for Obama, the source said.

So, she's get the nom, and then she votes for the loser? LOL

What is this The All Peoples Congress?

Why wouldn't her name be put in nomination, the same for Edwards and others who have delegates voted for.

[nutmeg]

ping!

[Red Badger]

I can’t believe they’d actually agree to a roll call vote!!!!!!..................

[comebacknewt]

Obama doesn’t even see it coming.

[papasmurf]

Still no word on STEPHENJOHNBANKER?

Good move by Hillary knowing NObama is tanking in the polls smoking and golfing in paradise when the world is facing a Russian invasion crisis.

This is gonna be good!

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

What will happen on the floor when the first superdelegate that has "pledged" a vote for Obama votes for Hillary?

[sarasota]

Sure hope this does in fact happen.

[Centurion2000]

Obama doesn’t even see it coming.

That's because he is a neophyte on the national stage. This ain't chicago.

Alice Palmer's revenge is going to be cold as ice.

“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....”

You might be right! Either the questionable birth certificate, the Larry Sinclair story or both will need to come out between now and the 25th!

My supply of popcorn is ready!! LOL

Until circumstances beyond her control (actual circumstances to be announced later) force her to keep her name in contention for the good of the party...
