Hillary made the motion.
Sen. Hillary Clinton motioned to cut the roll call short saying, "With eyes firmly fixed on the future, and in the spirit of unity with the goal of victory, with faith in our party and our country, let's declare together with one voice right here, right now that Barack Obama is our candidate and he will be our president."Hmmm. Hillary made the motion, did she? I wonder what to make of that?
Well, hell. The convention is over, right? Obama's been nominated. Everybody can go home.
Look, not that I'm picking on the Democrats. I think the Republicans ought to have a phone-in convention. Let everyone vote on an Instapundit poll. We know that McCain is the nominee. Why delay the inevitable?
Let the games begin.
This really seems bazaar to me, the Democrats first ban the Florida delegates from voting as punishment for having an early primary. Then, among squeals of "disenfranchised" they granted "half credit" to the Florida delegates. Then, as an act of magnanimous grace, they re-instate the Florida delegates. Now, half way through the polling, they declare Obama the candidate "by acclimation". So half the delegates never got to vote anyway.
ReplyDeleteWhat an entertaining lot, those Democrats.
I really think the Hildebeest wants McCain to win so she can run in 2012.
ReplyDeleteTo call this a 3-ring circus would be putting it mildly.
ReplyDeleteI cannot wait for this election to be done with. What a phenomenal waste of taxpayer money.
