I think the Sanders people are getting tired.

I've heard on twitter that the Clinton/Sanders campaigns are now "whipping" the crowd to be more reasonable.

If that's the case then they should have been doing that from the start.

Oh I totally agree, but at least they seemed to figure things out now.

Nate Silver is saying that only about 2-5% of the entire arena is booing.

Can they change the seating plan mid-convention?

I would not be shocked if they do that tomorrow.

Just read a tweet that the Sanders camp has dispatched Ben Jealous to go to some of their more rowdy supporters.

It was rough in the beginning but its gotten a lot better.

Still a little rumbling, but it is much much better than it was earlier this morning.

Yeah it was all over the place but it has found its footing in past 2 hours.

Ben Jealous was the turning point. Great speech by Ben

Since then he's been going around the floor to try to bring about more respect. It looks like its working.

The exploitation of the Hispanic girl's story was a bit much. Trump is terrible on immigration, but that doesn't justify stuff like that.

I can see that, but she was an amazing public speaker for an 11 year old.

Things have seemed to have locked in pretty well here over the past couple hours. Hopefully it finishes strong.

booing of Al Franken when he says 'when Hiillary accepts the nomination'.

Like two people Roll Eyes

Yeah, it's really died down.

Are people really saying it has died down?

The optics of this continue to be horrible. There's a continuous low rumble that was not present at the RNC.

I'll take it over what was going on at 4:30pm.
