This mess is largely her work. I wished she went back to Florida. Right now, we need harmony and, despite Warren and Sanders clearly on the side of Hillary Clinton, we do not have unity, but both sides dissing each others. So, it is Hillary Clinton's job to make clear that she cares about economic fairness for ALL, as well as the other issues she has been talking of.

I don't see any point in opening the convention with 20 minutes of booing. It's absurd.

Why would we want to make the Bernie people (even the really extreme ones) feel bad. It doesn't make any sense.

I think DWS could have handled this entire primary a whole lot better in respect to Bernie Sanders. I don't think they should have let him rum as a Democrat in the first place. But having done so, at least try to appear to be above the fray. Now, she has to take the hit for the people who work for her. That's her job.
