Obama, Clinton nominated by Dems for president Print E-mail
The Associated Press   

DENVER -- Democratic National Convention delegates have started a roll call of states, a procedural necessity in a history-making process that will end in Barack Obama's coronation as the party's presidential choice.

As the states were called by the chair in alphabetical order, delegation heads announced votes for both Obama and his vanquished rival, Hillary Rodham Clinton, whose name was put in nomination earlier as a symbolic gesture.

The roll call was the culmination of a wrenching, 20-month Democratic race for the presidency, and it set Obama up for a grinding general election campaign against Republican Sen. John McCain.

Is there any way we could work together to get this country back to where it should be, Thomas? We could start with you and me.

I would like that very much eric. For starters I will support who ever is elected. It's not a sure thing, but Obama is the next thing to it. Instead of trying to make him look bad, I will try to support him as much as I can. And when I disagree it won't be with malice.

You're welcome to remind of this as often as I need it.

That's a magnaminous offer. Thank you. I will accept your criticism as well, when I go overboard. I do get infuriated at the Rovian tactics that our country has to rise above.

Our politics is like a ship with many characters. Some good, some not so good.
