Convention and only convention. No TV commentators. DNC stream will be my "channel" for the next 3 nights. My computer, a glass of wine and my knitting. Life is good.

And now sweet dreams good people of DU - way past my bedtime. 😃

that we want to hear them. You can watch CSpan on cable. I watched it streaming live with Amazon Prime video. I saw the event itself because I like the totality of the experience.

They aired the whole thing without cutting in at all that I remember. Nobody said a word until after Michelle finished and they they gave thoughts.
