Im very worried about the busters tomorrow. The fact that they chanted through Leon Panetta's speech means they're still a problem. Part of me thinks they're going to do the same to Hillary.

Her supporters in that room will come to her defense much more strongly than they ever have if that happens. Although I imagine it's definitely a thought that's scaring her and the campaign. I think it'll be under control.

Yep, and I'm pretty sure measures will be taken to try and prevent any kind of protest. They know the stakes are high.

Trigger warning for Wulfric. Here come McGinty and Duckworth!

Duckworth's certainly a better speaker than McGinty. McGinty needs to realize that smiling all of the time makes you look really unnatural.

It could hurt with swing Jewish voters, swing Latino and black voters.

Not really. Painting Trump as a "divider" who disrespects minorities will help Hillary with those voters, if anything.

I can't wait to read the comments of Bernie or Bust and Drumpf supporters this November. I'm going to rub it in to the ones that are obnoxious and rude.

No doubt, we'll see lots of doomsday predictions about WWIII.

Progressives are not anti-God or anti-military.  Tonight's speeches rebuke both those stereotypes.

I'm personally not religious, but I agree that most of us aren't "anti-God".

Some of this speech may come across as "boring" to "average Americans" (ugh ugh ugh ugh ugh) but she's making a strong case for herself, and getting in some good sound bytes.

No, my friends aren't smart enough, only I am. Or should I say, I alone am smart enough. Wink

In the end, that is what matters. Hence why I referenced the remotes clicking. My parents aren't watching, they'll hear what they need to hear on the Today Show tomorrow morning.

I mean, sure, some people may switch this off, and the media reception will be key, but perhaps some people will tune in during the more "electric" parts.

I don't know, how will they know when it gets good? Once I quit watching a speech, I quit watching.

It's a matter of chance. It's completely up to when they tune in.
