senseandsensibility's JournalIn case you were thinking it might be safe to watch CNN again
I switched briefly to them a few seconds ago. There was a panel with Scott Jennings(horrible) and another rightwing loon named Johah Goldberg. The only non rightwinger was Karen Finney.
In the short few seconds that I watched, all three men interrupted Finney. That includes Tapper the host. It was literally three on one. The topic was immigration and how that is a bad issue for Harris. All three of the males were so invested in getting that across that they would not let the only female, or person of color, speak.
The only reason I tried was because Aaron Rupar said earlier that CNN liked Kamala's speech. But the part I saw was very very bad.
Haven't watched CNN since the debate, but according to Aaron Rupar
their dreaded "panel" like Kamala's speech. I did see on their website that their headline calls the crowd enthusiastic and her speech energetic. That is very high praise from CNN for a Dem. Of course it just shows how good she is. They have to admit it.
I'm a little curious what was said by the CNN talkingheads. Was anyone watching?
Yay, Kamala! You're making it really hard for the tired old CNN panels to hate you!
OMG Donny Deutch or whatever his name is said he fell in love
with Kamala! He loved her speech. Things are getting weird, people. 
Okay, I'll say it. After the speech that Kamala is giving right now
No one is going to challenge her from our side. I predict a united front against cheato from everyone now. Even the Machin types.
It is so good. I have to say, I am so glad she is wasting no time showing her chops
to everyone and getting everyone psyched.
She's my homie, so it's not surprise to me. But I am so proud.
Swalwell went on Faux and told their audience
that Joe Biden did something that cheato would never do: he put the country first. He also told them that Biden's cabinet would be at the convention in support of him and Kamala. Unlike someone.
I wonder if heads exploded.
Loved this story about President Biden told by Eric Swalwell
He was appearing on MSNBC and he asked permission to tell the story about Biden before he answered whatever horserace type question he was asked. Probably so he wouldn't be interrupted. And he told it beautifully and sincerely.
Basically, it was about the Dem debates in 2019 when Swalwell was on a stage
with several candidate, one being Biden. His daughter was in the hospital and he had considered canceling the debate. Anyway, during the debate Swalwell let loose with a zinger about passing the torch. He was calling out Biden on his age, publicly, but Swalwell did point out that Biden himself had used that same line against someone else earlier in his career.
During the break, Biden approached Swalwell, who thought Biden was going to read him the riot act. And Biden did say "Nice zinger, wise ass." But right after that, he said, "How's your little girl?"
And Swalwell said that exchange was vintage Joe Biden. It showed he could take a punch, had a sense of humor about himself, but most of all, he never lost sight of what was really important.
I loved that story.
At this point, Tur has to be joking right?
Guess what she wanted to know about Kamala's chances of appealing to voters? Seriously guess. Because no matter how bad your guess is, this will outdo it.
Okay...ready? She wanted to know if voters would want to have a beer with her.
This is on the heels of calling the cheato/jd ticket "very masculine" yesterday.
After weeks of despair, I am so proud of our party!
I am so proud of the selflessness and maturity of President Biden. I am so proud of most Dem officials who are rallying around Kamala Harris. I am so proud of Kamala, who is handling this unique situation in pitch-perfect way. I am even proud of myself for shrugging off my real anger at how Joe was treated and turning my attention to campaigning for Harris.
Lastly, I am so proud of DU, which I feel represents the base of the party. I feel unity and excitement starting to build. If you're not quite there yet, I get it. But I have a good feeling about this, brothers and sisters.
RW operative on MSNBC gives hint of how MAGA will attack Harris
The good news: there is an easy answer to their BS!
This former Republican strategist on MSNBC said that the campaign is going through Harris's record as a prosecutor with a fine-tooth comb to round up any people who might have been hurt by her failing to prosecute crimes. Then they will feature these people in ads, etc. You can probably imagine the rest.
Fortunately, there is an easy answer to this, and frankly it's something Dems should have been doing for years now. Find all the victims of cheato's numerous frauds and make commercials with them. From blue color contractors to students at trump "university" to sexual abuse vistims, there are plenty to choose from.
I am very happy with Harris as our presumptive nominee, but she has a chance to come out swinging and I hope she takes it.
Lawrence just now: This is not the worst day of Joe Biden's life
It is way, way down the list. He lost his wife and child in a car accident. He's been through much worse.
He's on with Joy right now, and as usual, his take is just right. He is also saying that he did not expect Dem after Dem to rush in to replace Joe.
