ust tell me, my friend Kath wants to know, what would have happened if their roles were reversed. If Hillary had won the nomination and Obama had come in a close second, would he have gotten a prime-time speech one night, and Michelle another?
Would his name have been placed in nomination right after Michelle’s speech, followed by a roll call vote that will be on Wisconsin before the inevitable winner goes over the top?
Would Oprah’s production company be doing his video introduction, without any input from the Clinton crowd that would be controlling every second of the convention?
Let me give you the short answer: No. Let me give you the longer version: No way. No chance.
But let me also tell you what Obama would have gotten, had their roles been reversed. Not three convention speeches (Bill, Hill, and Chelsea ... and what about Mrs. Rodham? Nothing for Mom?). Not his own video. Not his name in nomination and a roll call vote. Michelle would have been given the honor of introducing Barack. Barack would have had a choice: between introducing Bill or nominating Hillary. Then he would have moved to nomination by acclamation.

I love it, his first big decision and he rolls over showing just how weak he really is. Hillary is toying with him, and winning at it. Stretched out Susan is right.
Bill and Hill...ok. But why is Chelsea speaking?
Either that photo is shopped, or they can do more with makeup and lighting that I thought.
If Hillary is VP, it might explain why. However, if she isnt, Barack has rolled over when everything was in his favour.
I hope Hillary or Sebelius is not the VP. McCain can get Palin, and suck out all the oxygen from this “historic opportunity”.
I believe Susan had a plastic surgery recently.
That's also something that I cannot understand. It's not like she's the President of Democrats' national college student association or something like that. Susan Estrich is right. Why not 'Mrs. Rodham' (Hillary's mom)? That would have been making more sense to woo the elderly...
So when Hillary grabs the nomination, will she pick Obama as her VP?
Multiple reasons why the Weasel One is not fit to be POTUS.
Maybe obama is not as “clean” as Biden told us a long tome ago and Hillary has the dirt.
LOL......now THAT’s funny........like she would ever look back at him after the steamroller leaves the squished road kill on the pavement.
Hmm, impressive. Plastic surgery that stop one from looking like a raving lunatic.
She has Joker lips.
That, too ;-)
Quite a few libs went through the same conversion - as soon as they got a taste of what it’s like to be treated like a trash by the trash.
Is it just me, or is that picture at the article the most photoshopped picture ever? Not just because she doesn’t look like herself on TV, but just at a glance, it is a really bad photoshop job. Or it was the best they could do with her.
Haha! You beat me to it.
She had a face lift sometime back.
Because Hillary will be the surprise VP pick.
