Thats what a lot of these people see it as, sure a lot are there to hear him speak but a large portion are there simply because its trendy and had live music. So to a lot it was a party. But either way those speeches tonight were pretty ridiculous. "Corporate Whore", "Drag Her", "Revolution". I guess Hillary can't match to up to such influential political heavyweights like Rosario Dawson Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon.

After this coming Tuesday it will be all but over, thats reserved for the 26th when the final hammer drops on the nail.
