Hillary Releases Her Convention Delegates

Here's a video clip of Hillary Clinton and two aides who agreed to meet with her delegates in Denver:


Here's a full transcript of the meeting:

Leader of a group of Clinton delegates: Who enters my domain?

Hillary: One who had your allegiance ... and still sort of does.

Delegate Leader: The dead do not suffer Obama to pass.

Hillary: You must support him and suffer with me!
(Greeted by mocking, scornful laughter from the delegates)

Delegate Leader: The way is shut, it was made by those whose candidate lost and we losers keep it. The way is shut -- now you must die!
(A Clinton aide shoots an arrow at the delegate leader menacingly approaching Hillary ... it bounces off the delegate, carrying no effect)

Hillary: I summon you to fulfill your oath to the Democratic Party ...

Delegate Leader: None but Gloria Steinem may command me!
** Actually, Gloria has said that she will support Obama ... "If he's the nominee, I'll volunteer"**

(Hillary asserts her superiority in a brief swordfight)

Hillary: Fight for Obama -- and regain your honor. What say you? What say you?!

Clinton Aide Who's Slightly Shorter Than George Stephanopoulos: You're wasting your time. They had no honor during this campaign and they have no honor in this campaign's demise.

Hillary: Fight for me ... whoops, I mean fight for Barack Obama, and I will hold your oaths fulfilled! What say you?!!!
(Delegates laugh and we don't really know what will happen next)

Hillary: You have my word! Fight and I will release you from this living death! What say you?!

(The meeting room begins to shake, as thousands of progressive and feminist texts fall from the bookshelves. Clinton and her aides escape and rush outside, covered in dust & exhausted by the ordeal ... it isn't looking good. But then the delegate leader reappears! And says, "We'll fight")

Fast forward a few months:
After Obama loses in November, Hillary addresses her army of the undead: "I hold your oaths fulfilled. We'll start work on the 2012 campaign in about a year ... see you then!"

From AP:

In an emotional meeting leading up to the Democratic roll call of the states, Hillary Rodham Clinton released her convention delegates Wednesday to vote for certain presidential nominee Barack Obama.

Many in the crowded ballroom yelled back, "No!"

"I am not telling you what to do," Clinton responded. "You've come here from so many different places having made this journey and feeling in your heart what is right for you to do."

Her speech, just a couple of hours before the nomination vote was scheduled, was frequently interrupted by shouts from the crowd, including a brief chant of "Roll call! Roll call!" signifying the desire of many of her delegates to have a chance to vote for her.
