Well...there's alot about our DNC Convention that's Disturbing......

[KoKo]

Like...why don't they know how to hold a meeting that doesn't have the Podium separated from the participants that looks to C-Span Camera like a "River GAP?"

Like...why was Jesse Jackson the only one who gave a RESOUNDING HANDCLAPPING SPEECH! And, even Jesse really only got "tepid applause."

:shrug:

And...I wonder about the "wisdom" of putting Nevada and SC into the IO and SC Mix for Early Voting.... It was voted as a "good thing" yet there was dissention in the Committee who voted on it.

What's wrong, here? And, this is for folks who watched the whole thing and would like to do a critique that won't get this post BANNED BY MODS!

CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM? Can we do this within the Admins and Mod's Guidelines?

1. Alas, I have no TV. Are there any videos available?

2. Maybe, it's so hair-trigger here!

First the place looked half empty. The unoccupied table to the right of the dais contributed to that impression. They needed an applause track or some rowdies or something for sure. But the place was cavernous, a more intimate setting would have worked wonders, you think?

5. Come on..

... I criticise Dems here all the time. When they mess up. There is no rule here against criticising Dems so long as there is at least a thread of merit to your argument. I've never been so much as scolded.

6. You have another post on this in GDP

Saying C-Span caused the applause thing.

Dean and Jackson's speeches got great applause, so did Jennifer Brunners talk.

I don't see a need for this, it was a pretty good meeting over all.
