Sen. Hillary Clinton will push for a floor vote at the Democratic National Convention, ABC News reports. She says she wants her supporters to feel that their voices have been heard.
I happen to believe that we will come out stronger if people feel that their voices were heard and their views were respected. I think that is a very big part of how we actually come out unified,” Clinton, D-N.Y., said at a California fundraiser last Thursday, in a video clip captured by an attendee and posted on YouTube.
“Because I know from just what I’m hearing, that there’s incredible pent up desire. And I think that people want to feel like, ‘OK, it’s a catharsis, we’re here, we did it, and then everybody get behind Sen. Obama.’ That is what most people believe is the best way to go,” she said.
Clinton says that her people are currently in negotiations with Team Obama and the DNC to push for the floor vote. Is this why we haven’t exactly seen her on the forefront of Obama’s campaign?
