Will You Be Watching The Democratic National Convention ?

Set your clocks back 4 hours, then the coverage will start at 10pm.

If i set it back 50 years i could be in Canada.

I get enough politics each night on the evening news.
Quite frankly, I can't wait until the whole election is done...

 

[Cormac135]

Well not that good a start with the chair having to resign.

Still i'll forgive all if the have Oprah and Streisand on stage.

 

[cityboy-stl]

I will try unless it turns too negative like the republicans did.

 

[luckynumbah7]

I'm avoiding it like the plague. I'll read the sound bites and reviews later.

 

[Cormac135]

Missed the start of it, seems the Sanders followers are acting up.

 

[Alistair]

I want to watch Bernie's speech but I don't know if I'll stay up that late.

 

[Cormac135]

Same here Al, and it's started here.

Already better music than the redneck Repubs, Motown, sounds a bit ropy though.

A black face in every shot so far.

The venue looks a lot more crowded than the Repubs place last week.

Trump mocking the disabled vid shown.

Seems a bit celeb heavy tonight, Sarah Silverman, Paul Simon and Eva Longoria.

Her speech had me teared up ...but I kept it in. I loved her strength....

 

[eastofeden]

Sarah Silverman was pretty good...

 

[Cormac135]

Good speech by Silverman, calling the Bernie or Bust people ridiculous, as indeed they are.

 

[Cormac135]

Musical interlude from Paul Simon.

 

[Alistair]

Oh God my ears are bleeding. Paul Simon sounds terrible

 

[Cormac135]

Oh God my ears are bleeding. Paul Simon sounds terrible

Yes miaedu will be posting a thread on him soon.

 

[eastofeden]

Oh God my ears are bleeding. Paul Simon sounds terrible

...and I was debating whether to pretend I didn't notice....or not......

 

[eastofeden]

OK..these speakers so far are hands down waaaaayyyyyyy better than the RNC....

 

[Cormac135]

Eva Longoria sporting a double chin.

 

[Alistair]

Cory Booker is cool. I've always liked him.
