A procedural question...about that credentials committee...have the

[DAGDA56]

members already been chosen, or is that done at the Convention? Obviously, taking an issue to a Obama controlled committee may not do Clinton supporters much good.

1. I heard today that they

have not been selected as of yet. I do not know how or who makes the selection ...I also heard they will have much more power than the Rules Committee.

2. Thanks, that's sorta what I thought...if Obama goes to Denver with

a majority of delegates, those delegates will likely control committee assignments...but I may be wrong about this. If not, "taking it to Denver" really is an empty threat.

3. If I am not wrong, they were selected prior to candidates selection.

That's why HRC has 13 of her supporters there.

4. That's the RBC, not the Credentials.

5. Dean appoints some and the rest are apportioned based on states won from my understanding

which would make it tilt toward Obama.

Edit: The selection is towards the end of June.

6. Thank you for the information...so maybe not an idle threat...but

not as scary as some people have been saying.
