The Martin Frost Plan
Mon, 03/24/2008 - 3:00pm
In commentary for FoxNews.com, former Texas Congressman Martin Frost suggests a path for avoiding a convention floor fight.
Rather than proposing a compromise, he outlines how one might be reached:
A small meeting of respected top party leaders such as DNC Chairman Howard Dean, Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and two key governors — one committed to Barack Obama (Kathleen Sibelius of Kansas, for example) and one committed to Hillary Clinton (Ed Rendell of Pennsylvania, for example) — could be convened to hammer out a compromise that then would be implemented by the DNC.
The piece also contains some interesting Democratic primary and convention history, and you can get it here.
