Democratic National Convention **live commentary thread**

[Seriously?]

Yay, the good Cuomo!

There is no such thing as a good Cuomo... At least if you are a blue avatar.

   BREAKING: BERNIE CAMPAIGN HAS CANCELLED ALL REMAINING DELEGATE WORKSHOPS AND EVENTS FOR UNDISCLOSED REASONS

According to Adam Griffin

Undisclosed reasons = optics.

[Seriously?]

Booker is a star. He's like another Obama. He'll run in 2020 or 2024.

Booker has that James Buchanan problem. He's not married. Historically, it makes it difficult for a candidate to win.

Quit being homophobic.

WTH are you talking about? Booker is straight.

I was talking about him not being married.

Bachelor Presidents do not win, sans Buchanan.

Uh, what?  Buchanan won when he ran for President, so it obviously wasn't a big problem for him.  And that was 160 years ago.  You literally just invented the "James Buchanan problem".

He was implying that Booker is gay, like some have speculated about Bachelor Buchanan. Typical right-wing homophobe.

No. I take Booker at his word that he's not gay. And really, that was not what I was getting at. Historically, there's been one bachelor President out of the 44 men to take office. For whatever reason, it's generally been a disqualifier for the office.

[Seriously?]

Looks like some of the Bernie delegates walked out of the convention and took over the media tent.

[Seriously?]

Bernbots that went out to the media tent allegedly not being allowed back into Wells Fargo.

Their comrades in arms are at AT&T station, some of the Bernbots are trying (without success) to scale the perimeter wall of Fortress Wells Fargo to meet up with their locked-out comrades.

[Seriously?]

Berniebots and Black Lives Matter protestors meet just out the convention gates, joined by Green Party candidate Jill Stein, who is addressing them via bullhorn outside of the Democrat wall #DNCExit

[Seriously?]

Maddow said she was "shocked" because he "kept  talking about 'that girl' in 'that dress'" or something like that

That girl in that dress? Was he talking about Monica Lewinsky perhaps?

Sorry, I can not take a Bill hearts Hill speech seriously.

[Seriously?]

Contrast this speech to all of those from Trump family members last week. 

Bill does have 30 extra years of marriage to talk about.

I missed the speech. Did he mention how he got his d**k sucked by an intern? Or how he slept with Gennifer Flowers? Or how Barbara Streisand is on the persona non grata list at the White House because the former Horn Dog-in-Chief allegedly screwed her while Hillary was gone?

You'll have to watch it to find out.

Naw. i'd be the one liable to be throwing an ashtray at something

When you're in an open relationship none of that matters.

Funny, I missed the memo about an "open relationship." And Hillary! was allegedly pissed after the Streisand incident, IIRC.

Sorry Bill vouching for Hill is like Baghdad Bob telling me there were no troops in Iraq as we were watching them drive in on TV. Zero credibility.

Time to break out Blanche again


You are a really sad person.

Sad person? Bill Clinton is pure sleaze.

[Seriously?]

No one, no one, supporting Trump has the right to call anyone a sleaze.

It's funny to me that you red avatars that are supposed to be for equality and against rape are basically orgasming over a speech made by the White Bill Cosby.

Well, considering that you are supporting a candidate who has made rape his major campaign logo and campaign plank...  Poor gov'nor Pence.

Rape as a campaign plank? Oh do explain.

Well, his entire campaign is based on a slogan "Rape America Great!" Isn't it? And his campaign logo says that he wants to start with his Veep.

No his entire slogan is recycled from Reagan in 1980. "Make America Great Again," but let's not let facts get in the way of your narrative.

Panic is ensuing.

Panic? Over Bill Clinton? Hardly. Republicans were laughing at that speech.

How'd that work out for you guys in 2012? Don't worry, I'm sure Romney can still come back in Ohio!

I didn't vote for the Grandfather of Obamacare, so I couldn't tell you.
