I feel bad now, I did not realize the theme was around disability rights. I thought it was just about Trump and the reporter.

Harkin seems older than I expected. Not sure why.

Ok that makes more sense.

I wish Harkin would have retired in 2020. Democrats should never retire in a midterm.

Seriously. That was a tough swing.

Harkin said "Hillary Clinton" and there was no booing, looks like we may have a normal convention night!

Harkin did just accidentally say "Bill-Hillary Clinton" so there is that...

Bernie Sanders chat after Harkin was done. At least it was after he spoke, positive, and not that loud.

A song so catchy, most people probably don't listen to the lyrics. But they should, because it's not just about the pleasures of conformity, and the importance of trends, it's also a personal statement about the band itself. HEY DONALD! *Swings axe*

ALG should move to another state. She's great, but Kentucky is a dead end for her. Sad

Good to see they're going to have a formal vote. That was the best way to go.

I actually kinda like the "Hillary-Bernie" back and forth, as long as they are respectful to the speaker.

Bringing Tulsi Gabbard back to the DNC would be a good olive branch for Donna Brazile to give the Sanders camp.
