Notice Feinstein mentioned Clinton supporters being represented at the convention. That is what was discussed last night. Clinton is not going to give up her delegates until a vote at the convention.

I need to hear that all caucuses have had their signatures verified as registered voters who are still alive and continue to live in the district they voted in from the state where the caucus was held. Something similar to what Obama did to Alice Palmer and the others who wanted to run against him in Illinois.

The DNC needs to fix what's broken there, as well.

FIRM A FORCE IN CHICAGO POLITICS

The firm that hired Obama right out of Harvard Law School has been a force in Chicago politics. Carole Moseley Braun, one of Obama's predecessors in the U.S. Senate from Illinois, briefly worked at the firm.
Judson Miner, the head of the firm, was counsel to the late Chicago Mayor Harold Washington. Allison Davis, a co-founder of the firm who since has left, is a major Chicago developer. Miner, Davis and other partners and clients have been a regular source of campaign money for Obama, giving him $100,000 over the years.

CHICAGO -- In his books, speeches and campaign commercials, Sen. Barack Obama often hearkens back to his days as a civil rights attorney.

It is fundamental to his autobiography, displayed on his campaign Web site and woven into his appeals for votes. In one of his television ads leading up to the South Carolina primary, Obama recalled "working as a civil rights attorney to make sure that everybody's vote counted."

Senior attorneys at the small firm where he worked say he was a strong writer and researcher but was involved in relatively few cases -- about 30 -- and spent only four years as a full-time lawyer before entering politics.

Obama arrived in Chicago in 1993 from Harvard Law School and was hired as a junior lawyer at the firm then known as Davis, Miner, Barnhill & Gallard. He helped represent clients in civil and voting rights matters and wrongful firings, argued a case before a federal appellate court and took the lead in writing a suit to expand voter registration.

But the firm also handled routine legal matters and real estate. Obama spent about 70 percent of his time on voting rights, civil rights and employment, generally as a junior associate. The rest of his time was spent on matters related to real estate transactions, filing incorporation papers and defending clients against minor lawsuits.

• In one instance, Obama defended a nonprofit corporation that owns low-income housing projects against a lawsuit in which a man alleged that he slipped and fell because of poor maintenance. Obama got the suit dismissed.
  
• In another case, Obama appeared on behalf of a nonprofit corporation that provided health care for poor people. A woman, who claimed income of less than $8,000 a year, had sued Obama's client to obtain a $336 payment for baby-sitting services; Obama's client paid up, and the case was settled.
  
• In 1994, Obama appeared in Cook County court on behalf of Woodlawn Preservation and Investment Corp., defending it against a suit by the city, which alleged the company failed to provide heat for low-income tenants on the South Side of Chicago during the winter.
