Bill Clinton to Speak at Democratic Convention
Foxnews.com ^ | 8 August 2008

Posted on 08/07/2008 9:25:59 PM PDT by Aussie Dasher

Bill Clinton will speak on the third day of the Democratic National Convention, FOX News has confirmed.

The former president has been scheduled to address the convention on Wednesday, Aug. 27, before the speech by the Democrats’ vice presidential nominee, according to a senior Democratic source familiar with the situation.

The news comes on the heals of statements by Hillary Clinton that she might ask for her name be offered for a roll call vote at the convention — a formality, since she already has withdrawn from the Democratic race and thrown her support behind Barack Obama, the presumptive nominee.

Hillary Clinton’s comments set off speculation about whether any ill will remained between Obama and the Clintons following a hard-fought and lengthy primary race.

Obama’s campaign hadn’t commented as of Thursday evening on talk of Bill Clinton speaking at the convention, but Obama responded earlier in the day to questions about the Clinton’s support of his candidacy.

It looks like “America’s first black president” will be singing the praises of America’s first black Clinton.

If it were anyone else, I would assume that that spot on Slick’s upper lip was just a cold sore. But he’s got to be a walking STD incubator, so I won’t.

Slick will indulge in the boilerplate Bush-bashing, of couse, but then things get interesting, because he sort of figures that he, and not Obama, is the Man From Hope. I don't think that building is big enough to hold both of those bloated egos.

And every word is going to cost cash money. With the Clintons nothing's for free, especially loyalty. "An honest politician is one who stays bought," but who ever accused the Clintons of honesty?

I can’t wait for this — he’ll finally be the one to whom the phrase “speak into Mister Microphone” is being said. Maybe he’ll tell us all that monogamy is the secret to defeating AIDS.

IIRC the toon said Obama would have to kiss his ass for support. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/newstopics/uselection2008/barackobama/2211812/Bill-Clinton-says-Barack-Obama-must-’kiss-my-ass’-for-his-support.html

This just gets better and better. If Larry Sinclair isn’t there, Bill can speak after John Edwards.
