DNC - Convention in Philadelpia - Are you ready to Rock?

[Jimmy Higgins]

Michelle Obama was incredible.

(Think of all the material Melania Trump has to work with now.)

Trumps employee was way better. Just sayin'

Distortions? Trump said all of his shit outloud or on Twitter. It isn't distortion. Publicly mocking a disabled reporter isn't distortion, it is reality.

God I'm so slow. It took me almost a minute to make the connection, and only because of Tristan Scott's post.

Hillary is officially the nominee

The roll call went smoothly (at least the end part I saw). Vermont chose to go last; and after Vermont's delegate count was announced, Bernie Sanders made a motion to waive formalities and make Hillary the nominee. It was formality because Hillary had more than enough delegates, but it was a good show of unity.

The Vermont delegate chair gave some very moving comments about Bernie Sanders... had me tearing up. All in all, it was a good resolution to the nomination.

That was his brother Larry.

The first night had more of anything good or fun to watch than the entire RNC. Michelle could maybe win if they allowed a revote now.

No, Larry Sanders was representing Americans abroad, but yes that was a tear-jerker moment too

Agree!

Bill Clinton is such a good speaker. I miss him. Why do you guys have that stupid term limit thing? You could still have Bill.

 

[Mumbles]

Yep, Bill Clinton's great at this, and I did enjoy seeing Hillary bust in like the Kool-Aid man.

(Also, I was just a *little* worried that she'd try to rap, which would be horrible.)

Also, I have no idea what was with that trumptastrophe lsat week, but this is the sort of political convention that I actually enjoy watching. Doesn't change my vote in the slightest, not that I'd touch the modern GOP, but I can appreciate a good show.

Meh, he's no Chachi.

She is doing the Vulcan greeting wrong. That will cost them the Trekkie vote no doubt.

I'm not following this post??

BTW: I thought that Michelle was stunning. One of the best speeches that I've ever heard.

I was watching the coverage thinking "I wonder what the David Duke set is thinking about all this?"

Now I know.

Can you imagine? The collective Republican scream would be heard on the moon.

It is referring to Melania Trump's speech at the RNC that plagiarized a previous FLOTUS speech.

Boy, did Paul Simon SUCK.

That's what I thought too

But, IIRC, didn't Art have the lead vocal on the original recording?

Did he really? I had to step out on the porch right as he was coming on. (Neighbor's dog got out again, block wide panic. Grown people running around trying to catch a shih tzu. Quite hilarious actually)

If you hit it in the head with a pokeball it captures it immediately.
