Mix of boos and cheers at HRC's name. People chanting Bernie now. Hillary counter chants.

"Ours is the party of unity and not division" I don't think so after tonight.

Just like yours, with Ted Cruz refusing to endorse Trump?

The Democratic base is far more divided than what the opinions of the party elites would suggest.

The polls dont say that at all though.  Point to the reverse being true..

The difference is ours is truly a vocal minority, whereas the Republican side is legitimately split something like 40% nationalist, 35% religious 25% establishment.

I love me some Gillibrand #2024

You do have equal pay for equal work.  Just go work those construction jobs and manual labor.  Hell, even the women in my dept get paid more than the men. 

Strawmen and anecdotal evidence FTW!
