That crowd seems pretty pissed off. Paul Simon came in was able to calm them
down for a second. Bridge Over Troubled Waters.....Fitting.

Day 1 and the audible is called for a kumbaya play . Feel the unity...

So far I have only heard Hillary is awesome! Not heard much about why Hillary should be president or what she has accomplished. Hoping more substance from Bernie or Pochahantas

Well, Paul is 74, so I wouldn't expect his voice to be what it once was. Besides, Art Garfunkel sang that song with S&G. It was written to be sung in a higher scale.

Sarah was a good choice to unite Bernie's people with Hillary's.

In that respect, this isn't much different than the RNC.

Every time I see Al Franken I can't help but think of the scene in Trading Places with the ape on the train.

Al who?

This guy:

Classic!!!

More Hollywood elites showing up... Definitely showing their allegiance. Tonites feel is someowhat like the Oscars.

Eva Longaria-
Mixing up Trumps illegal immigration plan with hate against all brown people. Thinks Trump hates Texans living near Mexico.
Eva believes in Hillary again stating the "most qualified" its been mentioned several times.

Not hating, political conventions pretty much follow the same script.

Corey- Feel the love.... Can we get Corey some pom poms.. Gimmee an L, O , V, E!!!!!

Corey is unleashed and is quite the attack dog. Laying into the Donald.. Racist, misogynist, bigot, ignorant.

WHy is he a democrat? he is talking about hard work, education and commitment. Hope this message can sink in with the party. How can he vote with Pelosi, Reid, Debbie?

I thought that was a brilliant speech. Is this the start of Booker's future presidential bid?

Wow, more slickly produced attack adds against Trump an dhis university. I am sensing an anti-Trump 4 day campaign commercial rather than a democratic party platform discussion.

Big mistake by the Dems, it's kind of like feeding a troll. This has been Trump's most brilliant strategy- he could ride all the attention, negative or positive, straight to the White House. The man is not stupid, his genius is in fooling idiots that he is one of them. I think he is pretty crafty.

As long as they don't chant "Lock Him Up" for four days. No one would ever do anything like that.

Michelle's in the house tonite. I dont know if this will have the juice with the voters as it might of in the past.

After 2008 Hillary took the measly job of Sect of State, and ground it out. Poor thing.

Again Trump is scary, cant have the nuclear codes.

Speech sounds good, but doesnt mesh with reality of the CLintons enriching themselves personally. Hilary isnt runnig a fukking charity. Pay up suckah. .

The speech writers have some cute lines. Trumps twitter.

Dog whistle race card dealt to African Americans.

Words are nice, but I dont think she really believes in what she said about America is great .

Another powerful speech, this time by Michelle Obama. There have been attacks on Trump, yes, but overall there has been more positivity tonight than in the whole of the RNC. I think folks will take notice of that. I expect Warren will serve in the attack dog role.

Fauxcahontas is on stage !

Why was she not prosecuted for illegally claiming a "minority" status?

Even the tribe she claimed to be a descendant of said she lied.

She lied... the standard mantra of the left.

Yes, Muler drops in to fire off some Trumpish insults. Meanwhile, Elizabeth Warren is skewering Trump and his business practices.

Elizabeth Warren committed a crime by falsely claiming she was a member of a special class.

She lied.

Elizabeth Warren aka "Pochahantas"

She is a minority success story back in the good old days.

Her speech is pretty freaking dark- daily struggles, trying to make ends meet, rising costs, cant afford health care or basic needs. This is really dark stuff. The game is rigged,the fix is in ( No mention of DNC here). Big banks are rnonsters eating up Americans. I don't think she mentioned Bernie yet. SHe is non-partisan. Its all republicans fault. Democrats wanted to spend, spend, spend and Republicans said "No".

Is Bernie in the house? Hello?

Donald is a rich mo fo who doesnt give a crap about you.

Donald Trump has a solid gold toilet and you dont.

Donald Trump screws bricklayers and plumbers.

Donald Trump lives in a tower and you dont.

Donald Trump is white and some of you arent

Donald Trump is rich and you arent

Burger pickle appliers deserve 15/hr

Free Healthcare

Climate Change is real

Hillary will fight the banks?

Hillary is now against trade deals?

Bernie, hello Bernie?

Hillary is against campaign finance reform

Hillary has hijacked Bernies talking points.

No mention of Bernie.......

Another strong speech. As expected, Warren's task was to go after Trump and she did it effectively.
