Clinton call w/Harold Ickes: Delegates R Us


I just got off the phone from a conference call with Harold Ickes and Phil Singer of Senator Hillary Clinton’s campaign. The topic was delegates and counting delegates and getting delegates and what’s important to delegates and well, you get the picture. (Ickes held a conference call earlier in the week about the terms “superdelegate” and “automatic delegate” and Lynn Sweet of The Chicago Sun-Times asked about that – I’ll have more soon.)

I’ve got detailed notes to organize after doing Saturday lunch-time duty. But Andrea Mitchell asked the first questions.

It was fascinating, if not full of revelation. I was ready to ask the Capri Cafaro-league questions but couldn’t bring myself to hit *1. Next time, I promise.

Anyone else on that call?

    Hillary Clinton is caught up on getting votes, like Gore was caught up with chads.

    Obama is doing what Bush did. He is pondering his VP, calling to be the head of the Democratic party now and will move it to Washington, doing things like he is the Democratic nominee. He is going to entrench himself by acting presidential until everybody thinks it’s normal.

    Hillary must act presidential while she is seeking votes. She must start her V.P. search, etc., and get herself entrenched to prevent being shoved aside.

    The Supreme Court didn’t even have to consider Gore. There was nothing to consider. It was easy to push him aside.

    Hillary Clinton better get in the middle of things too or it will be easy to push her aside. She must establish herself as THE nominee and impress the superdelegates.
