Yes, most delegates would have been enthusiastic about whomever our nominee was.
But Hillary's campaign deserves the credit for what they were able to put together. I've been watching these events on TV since the 70's and haven't ever seen any convention by either party that was so thoughtfully and successfully carried out.

I just wish Jill Stein would . . . .never mind.
