Former Democratic presidential candidate Senator Hillary Clinton waves as she arrives on Capitol Hill in Washington
For some supporters of Hillary Rodham Clinton, it won't be over till it's over.
Still smarting from her loss in the primaries, they're not buying the theme of Democratic Party unity.
Despite Barack Obama's decision to give prime-time speaking slots to Clinton and her husband, the former president, they're itching for a fight and plan to wage one in Denver.
One group intends to paper the city with fliers and promote a video detailing what they contend were irregularities in the nominating process. Another group is buying newspaper ads demanding that Clinton be included in a roll-call vote for the nomination. Obama and Clinton announced today that there will be such a vote.
Some of the disaffected Clinton supporters are open to supporting Obama; many are not.
Obama needs Clinton's supporters to beat John McCain. Polls indicate that he has won over most of them.
But some simply don't like Obama or still feel Clinton was treated unfairly during the primaries.
