I'm going to try to spin this...
Are they going to let the BS protesters get it out of their system today?
They have Ben Jealous and Bernie speaking today. Are they going to let it calm them down and have it all be bad on day 1 so that they can move forward tomorrow?
If all the negativity is on display today, if it's as bad as it gets today, then can they manage expectations better?
Can't they find atleast some people eagerly supporting Hillary?
I am hearing all these interviews saying "can't have trump", but where are those of us who say "Yes, we want Hillary"?
I'm not worried at all
The convention will go on well, it will be wonderful. Protesters can protest, and the MSM will make a big deal. Hillary is used to all of this and she will go on to make history this week with a smile on her face and warmth in her heart. I'm not worried about the protests, the expectations, the entitlement of people who feel they get to dictate things even if they are not the nominee or her group of advisors, of people who think their voice must be heard beyond their vote, and every single hurt feeling must be nursed and addressed before they are willing to support her. There is a whole bunch of us who do support her whole heartedly. She will go on to win in November. I will proudly tell me daughters that girls can be whatever they want. History will be made.
Do you want to build a straw-woman?
Well, one was built and destroyed.
But maybe, this will help all parties to claim some kind of victory and come together. Bernie's supporters can feel that their voices were heard and they made a real difference to the party, and the party is on the way to being reformed.
Maybe there was some legitimacy in their feelings that the DNC was supposed to be more neutral and it never was. Maybe the DNC did need some reform. I certainly felt that way in 2008 when Hillary lost. Maybe the party heads should keep out of these primary elections completely and let the people decide completely. Or maybe heads just needed to roll. Depending on which side you were, you feel differently.
Either way, DWS did good and bad. There's no black and white. In the future, people will be more careful.
Now that this has come to an end, will MSM start investigation the leaks themselves?
Illegal Hacking
that does not show much. If we want to debate the merits and demerits, and if everyone is as pure as snow, let's open up bernie campaign's emails and Trump emails. Don't want to show your emails? Then probably should not talk about personal thoughts of personal people expressed in personal emails that were not supposed to be aired out aloud. However, if there were ANY actions, that were unfair (not ideas discussed), then they are fair game.
Let's talk strategy: Virginia and Florida
So Tim Kaine was going to make Virginia more D Leaning, but with his excellent spanish and path to citizenship and son in marines, is he also going to make Florida easier? Without Florida, there is no DT!
I'm filled with calm when I see Hillary/Kaine
whereas I am filled with anxiety when I see Donald Trump. The world just seems more peaceful and better when Hillary is at the helm, more competent and collected.
