It's a risky card the Dem's are playing by including Hillary, it could backfire on them all together.
She's just getting her named called for nomination, Obama will still be the candidate. Considering that if Florida and Michigan actually had their say in the primary elections, Clinton would have not only had the popular vote but also the lead in delegates. The only thing Obama is getting the nomination on is the fact that Florida took a 50% of total delegate split and Michigan was split based not on the vote but the wishes of the DNC. The margine with the superdelegates was a different story from "Joe Voter"; 438 for Obama and 256 for Clinton. This won't appease the hard core Clintonites and both camps know this. This is an act of desperation from the DNC to TRY to unify the party.....good luck on that one.

The only way you would possibly see a shift is if Clinton was nominated for the V.P. position which won't happen. How could she run in 2012 if she was the V.P. in "08"? LOL....another thing, with Clinton being the "#2" I really don't think that ANY other politician, not to mention Obama, would want to be the "#1" considering the Clintons past; shit just seems to happen ya know.

Have a good one!:s4:

Hillary Clinton's name to be placed in nomination at convention A Democratic National Convention that is supposed to showcase Barack Obama will devote a considerable amount of time to Hillary Rodham Clinton and her family, with the two campaigns announcing an agreement Thursday to formally enter her name into nomination. The development means that during the state-by-state vote on a nominee for president, delegates will have the option of choosing Clinton rather than Obama -- giving supporters a chance to cheer her candidacy one last time.
