Was at the dog park early this morning and spoke to 3 republicans (not MAGA) who are not only watching the DNC but have decided to vote for Harris.
Trump is going to lose big.

Via Fox's Michael Mulvihill:
Overnight ratings for Night Two of the conventions. Seven networks combined:
#DNC - 11.9 (10p-11:45p)
RNC - 7.7 (10-11:15p)
Difference: 55%
For context, on night one the DNC beat the RNC by 21% in the overnights, then 10% in the full nationals. Expect some narrowing of this gap when the whole country is in. These overnights reflect viewing in 44 major metros.

The #DemocraticNationalConvention will kick off Monday in #Chicago. Democratic organizers have had to rework programming for the #DNC after #POTUS #Biden dropped out & endorsed MVP #KamalaHarris to replace him.
But leaders within the DNC say they are harnessing that energy the #Harris & her running mate, MN Gov #TimWalz, have brought into the race, & that they hope to keep the momentum going at the convention & beyond.
Here’s what you need to know.

The #DNC asks: What if #men led w/ #empathy?
#TimWalz talked #football, #fatherhood & #fertility at the convention, where a number of men have taken the stage to embrace empathy & #emotion.

LOL!
Via farhad manjoo:
nice speech but she avoided all the tough issues
1) electric boats vs sharks
2) low-flow toilets not flushing it all down
3) steam vs electric carrier catapults
4) with wind power can’t watch TV when the wind isn’t blowing
5) no position on Hannibal Lecter
Forward.

The exonerated "Central Park Five", wrongly convicted of felony 35 years ago, took to the #DNC stage to testify Trump's cruel execution sprees and pursuit of the death penalty. Yusef Salaam, activist against the death penalty, was one of them.
Meanwhile Dems have re-popularized using "felon" as an insult and silently dropped opposition to the death penalty from their platform
