It might hinge on the ability/authority to fulfill the agreement/offer. In the case of Sestak, the offer is deliverable since the person offering it presumably was in the position to make it happen immediately and both parties knew that to be true. In the case of Hillary, Obama was not in a position to deliver immediately since delivery was contingent upon his election. Neither "knew" at the time that the offer could ever be consummated. In other words Sestak was given a job offer, and Hillary was given only a promise of one subject to events out of Obama's control at the time of the offer.

I'm not an attorney so I'm just speculating .....

Anyone know for sure the fine line of difference?
