Reporters are saying that the venue is a real dump too, with no climate control or even amenities like food or water, in comparison to the lavish GOP convention site in Cleveland.

I'm listening to the WMAL DC talk radio crew (Larry O'Connor and Brian Wilson), and they are just miserable in the steamy heat on media row.


They had to move some of the press corps out of the tents they set up for them because of the giant metal poles and the lighting storm. Thor is really having a good time with the lightning bolts tonight! Scary stuff.

Nor Virginia.  We hit 97 degrees today, with tropical levels of humidity.

"I'm Marty Walsh, and I'm an alcoholic." ... Quite an opening from the mayor of Boston.

He's kicking up here in Central Texas also. On the other hand, this could result in our first measurable rainfall in weeks.

If the Ds want to beat Trump, they'd be better off nominating Bernie. Hillary could actually lost to Trump.  Unbelievable.

If either party had the courage to dump their candidate for practically anyone they could win in a land slide.

That caused me to imagine... what if, 80 years from now, someone reading the history of this time has the thought, "Didn't they know what would happen? Why didn't they make different choices?"

As long as white people are involved, there will be awkward dancing.  :0012:

Hey!  Speak for yourself, lol!

Seriously, when I was single, I briefly dated a guy who was tall, blonde, really goodlooking...and a great dancer.  That should have been a clue he was gay.

Seriously, the DNC is right now featuring illegal aliens. In its conventions. Pitching its candidate to Americans. (Hint there: Americans.)

Can I ask honest Dem analysts: Is it wise to parade illegal immigrants at the convention? Who is helped by this?

Talk about a dark world view. Speakers lined up at the DNC are painting a dismal picture. So we should vote Hillary why? She's Obama 3. Why?
