If this morning serves as a guide, some will ... the minute, she mentions "Party Unification" or doesn't pay sufficient homage to Sanders or implores those present to vote for the Democratic nominee.

Well I agree with the poster, If this woman, whom I believe has been one of the best first ladies in this countries history, showed more about caring for the population, then just beautiful flowers, decorating the whitehouse, or just standing still gets booed or receives disparaging comments from this convention delegates and attendees, I will immediately quit the democratic party, quit this forum and never participate in any election for the democratic party again... enough is enough.... the vitriol needs to stop.


Addendum.....Michelle KICKED ASS last night. What a fantastic motivational speech, If she wants, she can be elected Senator. No booing... I stay a democrat and stay on DU....

I can't say what the Bernie delegates will do though. They've shown that they don't care for their own leader, so I don't see where they would have a problem doing that to Michelle. The good news is that they can be stripped of their credentials if they do.

its' the worst of the worst of his supporters that got named delegates.

Those people will boo her if she says anything nice about Clinton.

Hopefully the boo birds all go hoarse after Day 1.

I will never allow these selfish, selfish people to force me out of my own party, MY party, for which I have voted and canvassed and phone-banked and donated since my very first presidential election in 1992. I've been a Democrat since I was born and I will be one til I die. These people are NOT Democrats! Don't EVER let them sour you on this party! This is OUR party!

like God's own righteous fury. There will be fistfights on the convention floor.

I will snatch a weave, I kid you not. I will get on a plane and go over there and hurt some people if they boo her. And that goes for President Obama AND our wonderful nominee.

I hate these people.

And the last thing I said was they better now boo Michelle Obama, or I was getting on a plane, flying across the pond, and get them in line. I've had enough of their crap. For months they have have been acting like children. This is the last straw for me.

**and before anyone jumps on me, I'm not talking about most of the Bernie supporters...just the ones who think everyone should kiss their ass because they are sad that their guy didn't win...and then they act like this...they need to grow up**
