When you switch from cable to C Span, you would think you were watching a different convention.

I hear cheers for pro-Hillary lines.

I hear no boos at all.

Try it. Switch back and forth between cablenooz and C Span. It is jarring.

Directv 347. A little better reception than C-span. Really appreciate the tip I received here. Thanks!

Al (Franken) on now.
