At one point during Kaine’s dad-joke speech (maybe multiple points, I was mainly listening and not watching) the camera cut to Biden and the look on his face said “This is a worthy successor.” It was adorable and heartwarming.

Drugs, man.
When an NBC reporter asked if Trump thought it was really a good idea to encourage Russia to hack Clinton, he told her to “be quiet.”
“Be quiet Katie. I know you wanna ...save her.”
America’s fascination with reality stars is going to start WW3.
That small band of Bernie supporters outside the convention protesting were all white (if you saw a POC there let me know) and about 90% male. These people will be safe from a Trump presidency and won’t see any reduction in their rights. They are whiny, self-indulgent children who are throwing a public temper tantrum…
That’s what the left in Britain said about Brexit... In reality all you get is a really fucking bad position for you and your family to be in.
Yes, this exactly. It is something I cannot understand from the Bernie supporters. Clinton doesn’t align with your political ideals, I understand that. I respect that. Hell, I’d even go so far as to give you a pat on the back for fighting the good fight and voting third party were this any other election. But please.…
Funny how almost all of the people spouting that particular brand of idiocy are white, straight men. I’m sure it’s just a weird coincidence, though.
The problem is that I’ve seen more than one of them now say that they want Trump to win because things will get so horrible that the revolution will definitely come. Magical thinking.
If you think Trump as president, a Republican House and Senate will be best for you and the people you care about, then I respect your decision not to vote or to vote for Trump. But don’t argue the reality that not voting at all is not so very helpful to Trump because the math won’t back you up. When the Democrats…
I’ve said it elsewhere and I’ll say it again here: the last two days of the DNC could not have been planned better. Coming out of the gate with experienced, respected Democratic star power who could handle the heckling, shouting and disorder was brilliant. Michelle Obama’s ability to command the respect and silence of…
I cried today watching the roll call. And then again watching this.
Someone would have to be dead inside not to be moved by that, that was great.
Damn, DNC, between this and Bernie’s motion to nominate and the mothers of Sandra Bland, Trayvon Martin, etc. on stage, you really know how to chop up some onions.
Me and my mom cried and then felt like losers.
She sounded so genuinly grateful that it was just made me :)
So we stopped electing men because Richard Nixon Was a horrible monster? He’d actually be a reasonable, moderate choice in the last crop of GOP nominees. Sure, Maggie was awful, but how does this translate to Hillary’s nom in 2016?
Big ups to Bernie for signing the scorecard in the manner he did. Don’t cry for him, Berniemania—he kept his promise, don’t keep your distance.
