Clinton's name will be placed in nomination

why is she turning them over? after what people know now, she would probably get the nomination.

Shame on the amoral, unprincipled, self absorbed and megalomaniacal Clintons for taking over the convention to spite and humiliate Obama and feed their own massive arrogant egos and shame on Barack Obama for being so spineless and weak to allow this to happen out of fear of Hillary's dead ender angry old white women gender crusaders. This is a dark day of shame and disillusionment for those of us who'd hoped for something better.

It is so sad that Hillary has been given such condescending treatment by her own party. She deserves the nomination. If Hillary is not the nominee, I am crossing party lines to vote for McCain.

PUMA

Hillary always wanted to be treated as "one of the boys." I don't see any of the boys whinning, and having hissy fits because they lost to either Obama or McCain. Grow up Hillary. You lost . Get over it and move on. If women want to run for the presidency, they have to expect there's a possibility they might NOT win. Your run was no more "HISTORIC" than Obama's. He planned better, organized better, while you took it for granted that you had the nomination sewed up. Be gracious in your defeat. It's not about you or Bill at the convention. Decline having your name put in nomination, and get on with having the real nominee win the election

THis deal worked out between Clinton And Obama make a sham of our election process.Clinton should be the democratic candidate. Obama can not be trusted and does not have the ability to lead this nation in its current economic and military condition . This deal reflects a serious problem and should shame the democratic party.

They despise each other!! This is a crock and will not go over well - do they really believe we are all that stupid? Because of crap like this, I'm going to vote for John M. At least he is honest, even if you don't like him.

I'm BAAAACK!!!!!

I'll be watching now before the convention for the Clinton's to pull out a dirty trick on Obama to make him look un-electable!! I don't trust the Clinton's and I DO think they have some evil plot behind this latest scheme of placing her name on the ballot. Watch your BACK, Barack!!!!

Hilary should graciously ask her hard core supporters, who bent on protest in order to claim her as the next president, to cease now and unite the party by supporting Obama. The Democratic party is going to lose if the protestors continue. There is too much at stake now that Bush and McCain are all out to got to Georgia for more war. I question the timing and the speed of these Republicans to go fight another war. We are very fragile. Divided, we fail.
Please make the smart choice

Glen Gary,
John Mccain is honest? Really? Why is McSame running false ads about Obama every day if he is sooo honest? Obama, at any time, can tell clinton to go to h*ll after the way she has treated him. But he is not like that and he is trying to be NICE. We shall see if Nice guys finish last. But John Mccain is not honest, and he has proven that. KEATING FIVE anyone? Also, this latest tiff with Goergia is scary and John McSame and his foreign policy guru is a foreign agent for Georgia.
Nuff said. That is really American of John McSame, to have a foreign agent in your forieng policy team?

This represents the finest kind of reconciliation: recognition of Senator Clinton's historic run for the nomination and the promise that a unified party will ensure that Barack Obama will be our next president.

Kudos to everyone involved!

This is just another Democrat party scam to win... Obama is not fit to be in the White House. This is a sad day for America.

Hillary supporters need to get over it!!!I realize this is a "symbolic" gesture and if this is going to happen, why do her fans need to be having marches etc. Hillary, if she is a true leader would strongly urge these folks to really get behind OBAMA and discourage such potentially destructive actions. I am really disappointed in Hillary.

I see puppets and sheep.

It's sad that the unprincipled, amoral, megalomaniacal self-absorbed and vastly overrated Clintons have been allowed to take over the convention and will now have Hillary's name placed in nomination just to spite and humiliate Obama and probably ensure his defeat. Shame on Obama for being so weak and spineless asto allow this to happen. Hillary's dead ender angry old white women gender crusaders apparently scared him into ceding everything and anything. Maybe he is too weak to lead. I can't stand McCain but this is just too much.

Get a grip, PUMA! You're starting to lose touch with reality.

Mr. Elison -- why is it that you seem to think that prejudice against white people, the elderly and women is less heinous than prejudice against people of color? It's the hateful supporters of Senator Obama that are turning away Senator Clinton's supporters, not Obama himself. Self-rightous and ignorant bigots like you make me sick!

PUMA: Crossing party lines to vote for a man who called his own wife a bitch in public makes a lot of sense for a woman. I certainly hope that it is your son who is the first one sent to Georgia instead of mine.

Obama's camp is a sleaze bag. They still robbed the election with their manipulation of the caucuses and the race baiting. I would like to know the vote from all those caucus states. There were too many stories coming out of the caucuses how the system was overrun by highschoolers or people who were unable to get in or being shut out. He still won't get my vote.

Someone should get that big hook and pull these two off stage. Their time is far past over and they smell rotten.

Hillary Clinton's behavior SINCE she lost the 2008 nomination has insured that I would never, ever consider supporting her or even voting for her in 2012. She has no principles for upholding the common good, no view beyond her own ego, no understanding that this election isn't about politics but about America's survival and future, and, thus, no business being President of the United States. Feminist? What feminist about riding your husband's coattails?

Bill Clinton's behavior in office had left his legacy tatted and soiled. His behavior in this election leaves it in total shambles. Post-primary colors, anyone?

This move creates additional possibilities on the chess board. In 1968 the convention was rocking and the outcomes were uncertain. The Clinton's are keenly familiar with and idealize that period, perhaps using it as some kind of precedent? It is my sense that Hillary and Bill are motivated to get back into the White House, and I wonder if that motivation is stronger than the goal of getting Obama elected. If so, then this is all set up and prelude to an interesting ride this fall and in four years from now. This is, in nearly every way, the most interesting election of my life time. Thanks for all the theater, my friends and countrymen!

Obama and Clinton both have class! I think they will make a great team.

I still just do not understand how people who really support Clinton and her positions could even think of voting for McCain. It's just petulance. And unbecoming of responsible voters.

Hey, Mr Elison -- why is it that your ignorant prejudice against white people, elderly people, and women in particular is no more heinous than prejudice against people of color? It's because of Obama's hateful supporters -- not Obama himself -- that Senator Clintons supporters are having trouble supporting Senator Obama. Self-rightous bigots like you make me sick!

To joe vet and glen gary...
Number one, overwhelming evidence suggests that the troops support Obama.
Number two, let's go over this for a second. John McCain was a POW for five years. He was tortured by the Vietnamese. And now he supports the Bush-sanctioned torture at Gitmo? Torture works? You don't think this is one of the many glaring pieces of evidence that a vote for John McCain is a vote for four more years of George Bush?
Number three, read the man's education policy. 'Nuff. Said.

Um, also, Leroy? Get a grip, man. There is way more to be ashamed of as a voter in this country than the way the democrats handled the election. I wasn't old enough to vote for Bush the first time and I didn't vote for him the second time, and yet still he held office for eight years and seriously screwed us all. And I have you to thank for that, I'm sure. So thanks.

Anyone willing to vote for John McCain when they initially supported Hillary is a juvenile delinquent.

How can this country survive 4 more years of Bush/Cheney style leadership?

Watch your back now,Obama! Here comes all the dirty tricks by the Clintons!!!

Hey Mike that's pretty cleaver "John McSame"! Must have taken you all day to come up with that one.
If by the same do you mean a qualified and experienced job applicant that actually has a plan?
Or by the "same" do you mean someone who didn't learn foreign policy by traveling to Europe, trampling on the graves of the greatest generation, while taking foreign policy for dummies night classes?
And Linda, just go ahead and vote for BO and all will be forgiven.

Linda, you're painting all Obama voters with the same brush. both sides have their zealots and the majority of both want the Dems to win... If we allow the extremes to rule, then Mccain takes the office and then next 4 years we'll be continued in turmoil... I wouldn't have been very happy if Hillary had won, but I do know I'd recognize that all of my candidate's believes would be followed thru on by Hillary and I would have definitelty voted for her...

For those saying that HRC should be the nominee, perhaps I'm mistaken but didn't Obama get more delegates than she did? Of course if we use the math from the previous two elections where the candidate with less votes became president then I guess HRC should get the nomination.

Voters that would rather vote for John McCain than Obama are either not true members of the Democratic party, are rich beyond belief, are uneducated or they really don't care about the issues and think this is all a popularity contest like American Idol. The differences between Clinton, who was my candidate, and Obama are slight. On the other end of the spectrum completely is McCain. He will make W. look like Ghandi. And for the mothers and fathers out there: McCain has the LOWEST rating for Children's issues in Congress and a 0% rating by the League of Conservation voters. Instead of voting McCain, stay home! For our children's sake!

Hillary for President.

This is bad news. Poster NO BO is right: if she submits her name at the convention, she may very well win. I have voted democratic for over 20 years, but if Obama is foolishly awarded the nomination, then I will vote for John McCain; and I'll encourage fellow democrats to do the same.

Mr. Elison -- why is it that you seem to think that prejudice against white people, the elderly and women is less heinous than prejudice against people of color? It's the hateful supporters of Senator Obama that are turning away Senator Clinton's supporters, not Obama himself. Self-rightous and ignorant bigots like you make me sick!

To everyone who claims that Hillary would have won the Iowa caucuses if Edwards had not been there and thus had more momentum going into the rest of the contests consider this: The claim that Hillary would have won was not backed by any concrete facts about the actual Edwards voters it was speculation by one of her advisers. The entrance polls actually showed that Obama had more than a 20 point edge over Clinton for the second choice of Edwards voters.

This is a perfectly normal process to help create a unified party. It has happened many times in the past, and it makes a great deal of sense. Much of the convention will be for shoring up the party to get it ready for the fall campaign, and this is just one part of it. Let's get ready to put our shoulders to the wheel and make this thing happen. The world waits.

Novel idea: instead of saying something hateful about candidates you don't support, why don't you say something positive about the one you do?

Being negative towards other candidates only makes the supporters of those candidates more bitter and defensive. Simple logic, people.

I have been a life long Democrat but upon being called an angry old white woman has put in the McCain camp along with lots of others.

but I do know I'd recognize that all of my candidate's believes would be followed thru on by Hillary and I would have definitelty voted for her...

Sure, sure, sure....

For those saying that HRC should be the nominee, perhaps I'm mistaken but didn't Obama get more delegates than she did? Of course if we use the math from the previous two elections where the candidate with less votes became president then I guess HRC should get the nomination.

Oh, please. The delegates voted like wounded sheep. Obama won one TENTH of ONE percent of the popular vote (not counting a single contested states; had those votes been counted, Clinton would have won)--hardly a mandate for THE ONE, by any stretch of the imagination. Face it: the delegates voted for the sake of expediency, so as not to be left behind in this absurd Kennedy-esque election. Oh how too very cool for words....

Did you notice that Obama now welcomes the FL and MI delegates with open arms? He thought they were cheating scum a number of weeks ago and blocked them from exercising their democratic right to vote at the convention.

Great job Dems! You are about to nominate THE MOST disingenuous slimy politician in American political history!!

Hahahahahahahha!!!! LOL!!!!

Can you trust ANYTHING that comes out of BILLARY Clinton's mouth?

The answer is a BIG FAT NO!

And ANYTHING they do is for their SOLE benefit!! OsiSpeaks.com

I don't understand why Hillary has to turn over her delegates. If Obama won, he already has enough delegates. Why would it matter whether Hillary keeps hers? If he didn't win, then he's not the nominee. Why is the DNC making up all kind of silly rules. Democracy is democracy. People should be allowed to vote their conscience. Why is the DNC messing around with people's votes? I am so sick and tired of the DNC! There is no way I vote Democrat this time. Not even to congressional candidates! I detest all of them.

Hillary LOST. Why anyone thinks that it is fair that she be placed on the nomination is beyond me. Obama won more delegates. Get the heck over it. This is reality.

Hillary Clinton is the "People's Choice". She is the Most Qualified and Electable Democratic Candidate for President. BHO, the Chicago Mob, and the DNC keep trying to RIG this nomination by pushing Hillary to the side. STAND UP and TAKE ACTION America...Stop this Obamanation...it's CORRUPT POLITICS at its WORST EVER!!!
