"Disappointment isn’t the dominant emotion held by Democratic delegates," declares Politico

Wow. This is a whopper of a lede.

CHARLOTTE — Disappointment isn’t the dominant emotion held by Democratic delegates as they gather here in this critical swing state to launch their president’s formal bid for reelection.

That's supposed to be the big news from the Democratic National Convention - that people aren't disappointed?

Wow, Politico.

Several paragraphs later, they declare:

If there is one thing that comes through loud and clear in interviews with Democratic delegates attending the convention here, it’s that Obama’s base is far more passionate about him than Republicans seem to be about Romney. At the GOP’s muted convention, all anyone could talk about was Wisconsin lawmaker and vice presidential nominee Paul Ryan — not Romney.

Emphasis mine.

So they are passionate, but the way Politico spins it is that disappointment "isn't the dominant emotion" among DNC delegates.
