Okay. So it's not McMann. McMenniman? McSomething. Okay, damn it. Just vote Republican whatever that man's name is.

"Acclimation"? I know it's just a typo, and yet ... "Physiological adjustment by an organism to environmental change" -- yes, that seems to be how Hillary came to nominate Obama.

Ha! I'm not the only one who heard acclimation and not acclamation (I'm not a procedural expert). Chicago Sun-Times: "Clinton, 'with eyes firmly fixed on the future,' ends roll call; Obama nominated by acclimation."
