    Why would they pay people to be somewhere that people are willing to pay a grand a ticket to be?

    Also, I am pretty sure the DNC could reach out to a few thousand donors and volunteers (myself included) that would be there with bells on.

    I am sure they would post random ads on Craigslist rather than reach out to their email list that they send half a dozen emails to daily

    Just think about what you are saying for a minute

    Stop acting so self-righteous. Are you there? are you in the building? Then I trust a woman with a video camera inside the building who is a delegate, not you and your slant of being aHillary supporter.

    Your credibility is shot.
    Ha I just know I'm right.
    That's such annoying projection and hypocrisy. Your credibility is shot because you support HRC. But I'm the honest broker because my source is a Bernie supporter. WTF? You've landed in Bizzaro world.
    You can't follow along then don't try to decipher it. You're way off.
    Ha. What a joke. You fail to see your hypocritical argument.
    I'd like to know what Kat thinks of you continuing to make digs, threats and the like toward me. Keep it up.
    Threats? How have i threatened you? There are no personal insults being hurled. I apologize that the Train is not a "safe space". You'll need to head to Bernie Sanders Reddit to find that.

    Best moment of the night in my opinion.

    Fallen Muslim soldier's dad to Trump: Read Constitution

    http://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2016/07/29/dnc-convention-parents-of-muslim-us-soldier-trump-constitution-sot.cnn

    My favourite part was the Muslim from Robin Hood who narrated the Hillary intro video.
    He was a bad motherfuckin' Moor!

    Best line of the night -- 'the Democratic Party is the working party'. Hahahah. I'm still laughing at that.

    Lots of arena shots. Even people behind the stage for the first time this week. Hell of a job superimposing people tv, networks. Well done

    The DNC must be blowing all their budget on special effects right now.....on all the networks. That place is packed with paid robots and CGI plants!!
    I shouldn't respond to this, but this is such a childish comment. Some of the tactics she and the DNC have demonstrated support a lot of our comments, there shady practices. Just read through the facts.

    http://www.cnn.com/videos/politics/2016/07/29/dnc-convention-parents-of-muslim-us-soldier-trump-constitution-sot.cnn

    this was by far the best moment of the night and possibly the whole convention.
    You stick to your facts, I will stick to mine.

    I saw robots....or at least two guys on twitter AND Facebook said they saw robots......so it must be true, guys on twitter and Facebook speak the truth!!!!!
    Who said anything about robots? Dude, stop wasting time here. it's childish.
    Robots are just as plausible as a conspiracy involving all the networks, thousands of delegates and the DNC.

    I'm the one being childish?

    I was a Bernie supporter and he lost. So I put my big pants on (like Bernie) and supported Hillary. That's called being an adult.
    No, that's called being a dutiful and obeying little robot who has no sense of reality and no critical thinking abilities and Believes the candidate who gets lots of money from special interests are really looking out for his interests. In other words, completely in denial.
    By this logic, Bernie himself has become all of those things. I don't understand why you aren't applying the same standard to him. Bernie is now a Hillary supporter too, why does he get a pass? Why would you continue to support a robot?

    For the record, I like Bernie and am undecided on who I will vote for this fall now that he is out. No Hillarybot here. Not a Trump fan either.

    It's amazing that the DNC can't send an email competently, but they can somehow rig an election and edit convention footage in real time. Truly amazing.

    These people obviously don't believe this but +3.7 million votes for Hillary

    http://www.realclearpolitics.com/epolls/2016/president/democratic_vote_count.html

    Still wondering how those emails forced those 3.7 million more votes to go to Clinton instead of sanders.

    Except based on last night's speech the Democratic Party hasn't changed. She's running on a platform of continuing the current administration. Not a thing has changed, including the people running the party. Somehow, it feels like we've seen this movie before. What happened to Hope and Change?
    Sorry. The world doesn't work the way you tell it to.

    We probably were. I find that on the AMT.

    She said a lot of great platitudes, but it came down to - more of the same, more of the same.

    I always love the promise of more jobs. They're running on Obama's record of lower unemployment which ignores 2 key things:

    1) No material change in market adjusted avg. salary
    2) Lower job market participation

    As just 1 example. Promising more jobs and higher pay - I think we've heard that before.

    The only credible change I heard about was genitals.

    Now that it's over and done with, was party unity attained? Did Hillary do the right thing and come clean on the Wikileaks and her friend Debbie Wasserman Shultz? Did she and the dem party treat Sanders delegates with respect and outreach at the convention? (ahem, Nina Turner?) Will Sanders supporters vote for Hillary as she deperately needs their vote to win?

    We know the answer. And it's far from positive.

    Uh, baby boomers retiring will create lower job market participation. That's just the demographics and precisely why social security has solvency issues.

    As far as real income, it is a problem. But if you look at all the data, the decline started during the recession and hasn't really come back. But the correlation of the decline to the recession is clear. The other interesting part of this chart, from an economists perspective, is the massive increase in productivity of the US worker. That speaks to innovation, but also marks warning signs of greater competition for jobs, which could keep the wages down
