"We should elect Hillary Clinton" - Booooo
"Elect Hillary Clinton" - Booooooo
"Clinton" - Boooooo

No matter the speaker. Some credentials need to be snatched and handed over to the campaigns.

I'm watching C-SPAN so I have no idea what is going on MSNBC. Maybe they are calming down some. Did someone give them special brownies? Lets hope.

Fucking disaster. Feeds into the GOP narrative that even the democrats hate the Democratic Party. I think they are going to boo Obama...

Platform amendments just accepted. Good speech by Diane Russell for the Sanders side. Amendments include plan to reduce super delegates in the future.

Some floor demonstrations against TPP.

Barney Frank was booed by many Sanders supporters. Understandable given how often he acted like an AH towards Sanders, et al.

Brazile as new Interim DNC Chair has apologized to Sanders and his supporters concerning DNC actions and emails.
