Just tuned in.

Have they done the same as the RNC, and just been piledriving Trump over and over again? Or is Hillary's name coming up more than Donalds?

For the most part it's been what Hillary's policies are and why people should vote for her. Some occasional jabs at trump.

That sounds about the normal level. I was just wondering if it would descend into the same thing it had in the RNC, where the word size map had Hillary as the biggest thing there, and zTrumps name as big as his hands.

THey don't have to completely fail to talk about Trump, just not fail to talk about Hillary. And it sounds like they're definitely doing that.

Apparently she's still on.

And Sarah was always more pro-Bernie than anti-Hillary, so the transition should be pretty easy for her.

The way I see it, progressives will get hosed one way or the other because there is no way HRC is more than a one-term president, meaning 2020 will be another Republican wave allowing them to again redraw district lines in their favor. She's a loving awful candidate lucky to be running against a bloviating moron like Trump.

Don't count Bill's speech out yet. Remember, he's speaking not just as a former president and great orator, but as the person who has been Hillary's partner, friend and lover for more than 40 years.
