Not a harmonious start, CN, but I don't think I would call it horrendous. We will have to wait and see how it plays out over the remaining 3 days. I wasn't able to tune in until just after 8 this evening. At the point I started watching it was pretty raucous and the Hillary Haters were going strong. Appears they were able to restrain some of their hate a bit once Michelle Obama began speaking. She was magnificant!

Had an interesting conversation with my 87 year old mother this evening. She watched the Republican convention and had seen some of the earlier broadcast of the DNC and environs that I had not seen.    What struck her was how much hate was in evidence throughout the Republican convention, and was very worried with respect to the state and the future of our country that hate was also in evidence to the extent it was from Hillary haters at the Dem. convention.



Michelle and Booker were inspirational.
