Survey after survey has shown the same thing.
People don’t like Donald Trump or Hillary Clinton.
The goal of the conventions is to change that, and the Democratic nominee’s most personal surrogate took the task head on.
First, though, the DNC had to officially nominated Clinton as their nominee.
The roll call had a number of notable moments. Bernie Sanders’ brother Larry was brought to tears when he mentioned how proud his parents would be, before casting his own vote as a delegate for Americans abroad.
Hillary Clinton’s lifelong friend Beverly Everly also was given the opportunity to announce Illinois votes for the former Secretary of State. Clinton, of course, was born in Chicago.
At the end, Bernie Sanders moved to make the nomination unanimous and the party was finally unified after a tumultuous forty-eight hours.
Overall, the audience was much more enthusiastic and considerably less divided than the first day (although that probably had a lot to do with the fact that Sanders’ hardocore supporters walked out).
The second day was also bereft of any major political stars so the Dems used actual movie and TV stars instead like Elizabeth Banks and Lena Dunham. As a result, Tuesday was noticeably more low-key than Monday. Until the main event anyway.
As expected, the 42nd President of the United States delivered the personal case for this wife.
“She’s insatiably curious, she’s a natural leader, she’s a good organizer, and she’s the best darn change-maker I ever met in my entire life,” he declared.
Clinton addressed head-on the disconnect between the private Hillary observers gush about and the public Hillary that leaves voters cold. Unsurprisingly, he placed the responsibility at the feet of the Republicans.
“How did this square with the things that you heard at the Republican convention?,” he stated. “What’s the difference in what I told you and what they said? How do you square it? You can’t. One is real, the other is made up.”
“You just have to decide,” Clinton concluded. “You just have to decide which is which, my fellow Americans.”

Let’s see. This character reference is coming a guy who did not inhale and who did not have sex with that (other) woman.
” Why would Bill Clinton, ever in his wildest dreams, think of cheating on such a dreamboat?”

If anyone sues me, I hope they have assets I can take.
See. He is OBSESSED with Ha3 ……. who seriously should get a restraining order. He is also very worried that somebody named “Brett” may be suing him.
If this is how you react when I own you, HaHaHa, I’m okay with it. As long as you don’t hurt yourself.
You perform oral sex on men for money. You need help.
The Clintons are not above preying on your ignorance.
Ooh look I can do double entendres too.
Then it must be past your bedtime young one.
Don’t know anything about that.
Have you seen this pervy picture of Trump?

It was great if you never heard the name Juanita Broaddrick and about the Bimbo Eruption Unit.
I was very impressed with Bill Clinton’s heartfelt speech. He still has it !!!!
Oh stop. Stay classy now.
I don’t know if his kid is a retard; but I know he is a fucking pussy-ass coward.
You are confusing your trolls.
He has said many times that there is a retard kid in his life. But he is a pathetic moron troll … and now a Trumpanzee. Who knows what is true.
Is it true the troll’s kid is a RETARD too?
“How did this square with the things that you heard at the Republican convention?,” he stated. “What’s the difference in what I told you and what they said? How do you square it? You can’t. One is real, the other is made up.” I guess this all depends on what the definition of “is” is. We all know slick Willy wouldn’t tell a lie.
Bravo, just bravo!
I did not post anything at 2:27. That was not me and I would never use such language.
I am not going anywhere. In fact – I might just post more now. Trump really gets under my skin.

HaHaHa, you’ve got to start posting as Brandy again and maybe she’ll leave like last time.
OMG! Funniest thing I’ve ever seen! She OWNED YOU TOO!
Piss off.
You are still a hate filled bigot.
Agreed Brandy. You have really come around. I used to think you were the pathetic RETARD troll. But it seems you actually have a brain.
I don’t agree with the polls or Nate Silver, but have you seen that Trump’s lead is bigger than ever today? Even the LA Times, which polled through yesterday has him up by 7. http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/president/us/general_election_trump_vs_clinton-5491.html
As usual – Bill Clinton was brilliant. Like only he could, President Clinton managed to humanize the fierce and strong leader who will soon be our next President.
Bravo to the Democrats for not using fear tactics and bullying. They really are the Party for the people of this ALREADY great country.
I am so sick of the Republicans saying America is not great. We are the greatest country in the world. We need to keep it that way. Hillary is the only choice in November.
Was anyone surprised that Bill didn’t tell the story of Hillary laughing about getting off the child rapist or how well she ran the Bimbo Eruption Unit to silence the women he preyed upon?
