Time for me to go full BRTD. I'd say an 8. They can't mention Hillary's name without boos breaking out.

"We trusted you!"
"No TPP!"
"Bernie! Bernie! Bernie"

The best part of the night was Booker. Best convention speaker so far at either convention.

2-3. Unless someone plagiarized something, it's alright.

It has had its moment so far, but it's not like the boos are going on every minute overwhelming every word. It's not even close to that. I mean just because you hear like 2 guys interrupting Warren for like 20 seconds doesn't mean it's a giant trainwreck lol.

I don't know, Bernie supporters booing Elizabeth Warren doesn't make for a very united convention.

Ted Cruz was booed by his owndelegates for not endorsing Trump. The Republicans want to heal and move on. Bernie was booed by his own delegates for endorsing Clinton this afternoon. That is a big problem.

It is way more than two. Thankfully as Adam noted, the Hillary people are drowning out the Sanderistas.

How can a thread with only the OP be considered a trainwreck?

It's going great. I support Bernie and am ecstatic at the booing and chanting at every speech. I'm hoping this leads to a big drop for Clinton and a big win in November for Trump!

It was mostly pretty good,   I certainly wouldn't call it a trainwreck.

How exactly am I being the jerk again? I can't express my opinion that this convention is going off the tracks? You all are the ones who are panicking, my vote for 8 is based on your reactions, not my perceptions.

This group of political junkies is hardly representative of our great nation.

No, I'm basing it off of Twitter, commentary on TV when I rarely venture of C-SPAN, reactions of other average Dems I know from Facebook, etc.

It's not even over yet.
The main speakers are speaking now.

The only "trainwreck" is you .... ChairmanSanchez "the elitist."

8.  Definitely NOWHERE near as bad as the RNC's Day One, mainly due to the fact that FLOTUS and Senator Booker saved the night from total disaster.

Again, I disagree. The Never Trump people didn't boo Trump's speakers and in fact Cruz was booed by his own people for his non-endorsement. The RNC was boring, it was bland, the order of speakers sucked, and it lacked the star power and the enthusiasm but it wasn't chaotic or divisive like this.

7-8. Not a total wipeout by any means. Lots of time to turn it around. The sheer number of angry Bernie supporters feels like a powderkeg for more trouble, though.

You sound drunk again .... like you were a number of weeks ago, and were posting rubbish late that night.
Remember how much of a drunken fool you sounded like that night ?
LOL.
