Democratic National Convention **live commentary thread**

[dspNY]

Bernie trying to tame the monster he created and it isn't going well. That's on him unfortunately

[dspNY]

Yikes, Sanders delegates boo when Sanders himself says "We have got to defeat Donald Trump and we have got to elect Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine."

He needs to get real with them. Take off the kiddie gloves and tell them not to be children. He needs to get personal and emotional and explain why it is so important to him why Donald Trump can't be elected.

This is a clusterf-ck. I totally overestimated the sanity of his supporters, which I didn't think was possible. If Hillary loses the general, it's at least partly on Bernie. He helped create this mess.

I couldn't say it any better

[dspNY]

At least the Battle Hymn of the Republic went well

[dspNY]

Read a tweet earlier today that Texas will pull credentials to anyone that boos.

That's the way all these state delegations have to do it. If they act like idiots, boot'em

[dspNY]

Barney didn't get it as bad as I thought he would

[dspNY]

Chaos ensures whenever the name "Hillary Clinton" is uttered. Jeez.

Gotta throw'em out, that's the only way they'll get the message

You'll be throwing their votes out too. Keep up the tough guy attitude, you'll give my boy the election.

You can't have constant chaos, they have to go, forcibly if need be. Even if you take a short term hit

[dspNY]

OK that's a bit better. This was going off the train tracks but she pulled it together, just

[dspNY]

Bernie side chanting "no TPP."

Rude f***ing assholes

[dspNY]

Trumka is going to be a very important piece of this general election in the Rust Belt

[dspNY]

It was rough in the beginning but its gotten a lot better.

Yeah it was all over the place but it has found its footing in past 2 hours.

Ben Jealous was the turning point. Great speech by Ben

[dspNY]

A now they have two illegals speaking, get the border patrol.

[dspNY]

Sarah Silverman put those a**holes in their place!!!

[dspNY]

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

According to Adam Griffin

Now what's going to happen

[dspNY]

Michelle speaking at her second party convention in the past week

[dspNY]

Michelle with the awesome clapback to BernieOrBust

[dspNY]

Yeah, speakers, just keep throwing salt at the Berners, that'll definitely bring unity.

Those asshole delegates deserve every bit of it and more. Michelle with the mic drop speech

[dspNY]

About 2 or 3 assholes now chanting "we trusted you"

[dspNY]

Is there a chance this backfires on the Bernie or Busters? This is incredibly rude.

Without a doubt. Democrats and nice people don't do rude

[dspNY]

Bernie doing a solid job!

[dspNY]

This is an unequivocal endorsement. Bernie is doing great, but what about his supporters?

[dspNY]

Crowley's line of attack (Trump swindled 9/11 money) needs to be pushed. That is a very powerful strike at Trump's character (makes him unpatriotic)

[dspNY]

I love the Big Dog. A reason why I became a Democrat as a kid
