"Maybe you came through because you are curious about the new DNC chairman and the future of Democratic politics?" and the crowd cut her off with boos
That is horrible.
As a European leftist, of course I hoped during the primaries that Bernie would win because he promoted all that European hippie stuff. :-D Then Hillary won, so of course I hoped she'd win the general election because out of the 2 candidates, she was the left-leaning one!
How can you support Bernie and boo the DNC / democratic party at the same time? That is so dumb! DEMOCRATS ARE NOT YOUR ENEMIES! Republicans are!

Let's be careful here, if a handful of people are jerks it can be used to promote negative memes
