July 15, 2008 (LPAC)--A leading spokesperson for the ``The Denver Group,'' Georgetown University Law Professor, Heidi Li Feldman, in a July 14th interview with Fox TV News, countered assertions by reporter Neil Cavuto that the Democratic Party nomination was ``locked up,'' by bringing up the history of the 1932 convention, and the fact that FDR was not nominated until the fourth ballot.
When Cavuto persisted, saying that such a scenario required a willing nominee, and that Senator Clinton has suspended her campaign and endorsed Obama, Feldman replied that Senator Clinton had believed that these actions were appropriate in June. What we are saying, she continued, is that things could change by August, that Clinton's name should be placed in nomination, that there should be a full roll call vote of the delegates, and that if Senator Clinton won the floor vote, and was offered the nomination, and felt that the best thing for the County and for the Party would be to accept, she could accept, and if she felt that she wanted to decline, she could decline.
But, Feldman concluded, it is a long way until August and the Convention.
