They will soon be forgotten. She killed that speech!
There were protests? Sorry, I couldn’t hear them over the sound of HOW FUCKING AWESOME HILLARY WAS.
What?! No TERM LIMITS NOW! ?
So over the self-righteous tantrum-throwing haters.
There was a handful of assholes and dickheads. After awhile, the crowd knew just how to drown them out. It was kind of funny.
Puerile jackasses.
Bye, Felicias.
Bernie, thy name is dyspepsia
I guess they should have campaigned for Lindbergh.
Bernette Gomez, a delegate from Los Angeles, was among those who walked out of the convention hall in protest. “It was a fact that the election was rigged in favor of Hillary Clinton so that makes it pretty clear,” she told TPM. “I grew up in poverty, I know poverty very well. I know the children of the working class it is clearly a party that doesn’t even care about me so why should I be in there?”
No, it’s not a fact. Many Sanders supporters DID NOT WANT HIM TO WIN.
And if it looked like he was going to win, THEY WOULD NOT HAVE VOTED FOR HIM.
Hey, it sucks to lose - I had the same feelings after Howard Dean in 2003, but please get over it soon and come back and help us hold HRC’s feet to the fire on the promises she made to Bernie AFTER she is elected President.
I am really irritated at these endless TPM articles on boorish people. NOT ONE TPM article on the supportive delegates (the other 90%). Look around the hall. Talk about missed opportunities.
(BTW - I watched the speech on CNN and these protests did not come through.)
The protesters don’t realize they are helping to burnish Hillary’s cred among independents and moderate Republicans by making the contrast so stark. Hillary on one side, liberal wing of Bernie supporters on the other.
What the hell is the point? What are they trying to accomplish? What a misdirected waste of noble rage.
I watched from the DNC livestream and never heard a peep. But I did hear a lot of impromptu and badly timed chants of HIL-LA-RY which must have been the successful efforts of the crowd to drown out the protesters. Awesome speech!
I watched on MSNBC, and I never heard any protesting.
May she give them 8 years of something to live for and talk about. After that, they are on their own.
Funny. I was worried that there would be a disruption, but I didn’t notice a thing. Might as well have been a Trump supporter Klan meeting 1000 miles away.
The vast majority of people watching had no idea there was anything more than one or two people who held up a placard … at best. The crowds were wonderful – they would drown out the protesters beautifully. Thank you, level-headed people in that crowd!!
Impolite.
