Hillary Will Be Nominated

The Hillary and Obama campaigns have finally reached an official deal on how to handle her role at the convention -- her name will be placed in nomination, as a way to assuage her embittered supporters and minimize the possibility of strife at the Denver gathering, according to two sources familiar with the deal.
Obama and Hillary advisers decided that this course was preferable to having her name not introduced, the sources say.
One source confirmed that there will be a roll call vote at the convention, probably on the third day, with her name in entrance, and that Hillary will encourage her supporters to vote for Obama.
"This will recognize the historic nature of the primaries, honor the voices of everyone who participated, and help with party unity," the source says.
