Will someone ask her how she feels about what her union leadership has done with her hard-earned union dues?

“Gloria Craven Laid-off North Carolina textile worker with huge medical bills “

Wow, that is almost as bad as the descriptor I use for important events: “Frankjr, Lazy Fat Hairy Guy with Bad Feet and Gas”

Foxnews is reporting the Obama camp is trying to nix the roll call vote!

Hillary’s supporters are PISSED!

Howard Wolfson is on Foxnews.

“This is Senator Obama’s decision he’s going to have to live with”

It would not surprise me at all if Hillary goes completely off script and goes into a rant about how Barack is unelectable.

I agree.

Wolfson was just on Foxnews.

He’s basically alluding to the fact that Obama could screw himself over.

Aw, have some fun and watch at least some of the freak show. It’ll remind you why you could never become one of them.

Among my favorites last night was the Hurricane Katrina babe, victim of both storm and the Bush Administration, who grapped her clothes and hula hoop (no joke) and spent days in a lousy shelter and it was all Bush’s fault!

I take it that 8:30 “local” means 10:30 EST?

Open questions:

1. I thought the convention was to confirm the nominee. Why is it BO’s choice on how to count the vote? Who decides on these mechinations of which states to count and when to stop counting etc?
2. Can a state refuse to list BO as a candidate tonight and thereby deny him votes? He has to have a certain number to be confirmed right?

Nevermind, found it.

Dr. Hector P. Garcia believed in the American dream and lived it. He was a man who passionately quoted the Declaration of Independence and the Constitution, and applied such texts to the outcast minorities of society. He inspired Mexican Americans to educate themselves in democratic principles, then worked to apply those principles to all people through his organization, The American GI Forum. Dr. Hector P. Garcia saw the flagrant deprivation of rights of Mexican Americans and spent his life working to effect positive change.
