The media will say after this convention is over Obama had a bad convention
because of a few Clinton hecklers.

3. I heard them say on CNN that this will be the most negative Democratic convention. At first I
thought it was in reference to their Clinton vs Obama narrative, but then it became clear they meant that there would be a lot of shots taken at Bush and McCain. Oh boo hoo, CNN. We all know what a "positive" convention got us in 2004.

8. MSNBC had Hardball outdoors
and the theme was Hillary and division. They had a live crowd filled with Hillary supporters for Obama and Hillary supporters against Obama. They were playing it up big too, even though it was clear to everybody that they were the ones pushing the narrative.

10. It was really over-the-top
1 hour show. First 20 minutes only about Hillary and disunity. Next 10 minutes half focused on Ted Kennedy. Then they went down to their crowd for 5 minutes and went down the line having them give a word or two into the microphone. ALL of them were in support of Obama and you could tell that they were disappointed that they didn't have any anti-Obama Hillary supporters. So they go to commercial break and when they come back they have 3 Hillary "supporters" with a huge banner they're holding. Chris talks to all 3 of them and they're only talking about Obama is a Muslim and that they have proof, but they aren't going to discuss it. To his credit, Chris then took the microphone to the rest of the crowd where they talked about how delusional those 3 women were. :rofl:
