Maybe I'm speaking too soon, but things seem to be cooling down.

Perhaps word is getting to the narcissists that they're hurting their cause and demonstrating the height of incivility.

The media is eating up this stuff, but the network coverage of the convention doesn't really start until primetime. Let's hope a positive atmosphere permeates the hall and that the vast majority of America sees a rocking hall cheering our first lady and keynote speakers.

If they boo Michelle, Elizabeth and Bernie they'll lose every bit of power they might have had.

At least that's what I (as a proud Bernie supporter who is now all-in for Hillary) would do.

What do they hope to accomplish?

They are not Democrats or probably even true Bernie supporters, in the sense of really being for the positions and goals the Senator holds. I voted for Bernie (proudly) but I'm all in for HRC now and these people certainly don't represent me. I am embarrassed, frankly.
