DWS should not be appearing at the convention, at all.

This is ridiculous and dangerous. It seems to be all about HER getting that last 15 minutes of fame. She has done enough harm, and just needs to go away. Now the media will keep talking about her, instead of our presidential candidates.

I'd boo her myself at this point just because she's behaving so selfishly.

putting myself in that situation. I don't think she will be well received, though I think Democrats will be more civilized than the republicans were.

and not because I think she deserves to be treated the way she is, but because she has become a lightning rod for some who want to blame Sanders defeat in the primary on a couple of emails that were of poor taste.

God how we Democrats like to eat our own.

I really wish they'd grow up. Something tells me that even if she doesn't speak, they'll find someone else to boo. Some people are determined to disrupt our convention.
