Runners-Up Hillary Clinton, Ron Paul Still Out There
 Wednesday, August 6th, 2008  by Connie T.

As we all know, Barack Obama has sealed his position as the Democratic nominee for the presidential race, and John McCain has done the same for the Republican Party. However, that doesn't mean runners-up Hillary Clinton and Ron Paul are just disappearing into the sunset.

Mike Huckabee, in case you're wondering, has gone off and gotten a job with Fox News as a regular political commentator and contributor.

Ron Paul is continuing to plan for a convention of his supporters right alongside the Republican National Convention in Minneapolis September 1-4th.

And Hillary Clinton isn't ruling out fighting for the chance to be on the Democratic ballot for the DNC, either, which is to be held August 25-28th in Denver. She just recently told supporters,

What will happen at the convention in respect to my putting my name in nomination, a role call vote, and the usual kind of process that occurs at conventions? We're trying to work that out with the Obama campaign and with the DNC. 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.

But when she mentioned everyone eventually coming behind Obama, her supporters didn't seem too thrilled. Hillary's supporters are die-hard!
