In the next few days I'll have lots to write about the Democratic Convention--it's late tonight so I will be brief.
Started rocky with lots of Bernie discontent--not unexpected by any means.
But my God--Al Franken and Sarah Silverstein--tell me two comics at the Republican Convention (besides Trump and Pence, who don't mean to be....) they were great.
Michelle for President! Lordy, Lordy the girl can move a crowd. The turn started there.
Then Elizabeth and Bernie: the twin darlings of Progressives like me (when did we accept the P word rather than the L word--whether L means Liberal or Left-Wing) who made the case that Bernie's 'revolution' created the most liberal platform in history and will live on through Hillary's presidency.
What a contrast to the gloom and doom and zombie apocalypse of the GOP.
Makes me prouder than ever to be a Yellow Dog Democrat.
More when I'm more awake.
