Just arrived Philly for #DNCinPHL & there's a big pro-Bernie, anti-DNC protest outside City Hall. The #FeelTheBerners are steaming mad.

[Donald Trump just created a new name for Hillary, its Hillary ROTTEN Clinton]

TRUMP has mastered the ART of the DEAL. He’s turning ALINSKY tactics on the DNC. LOL

“12 WAYS TO USE SAUL ALINSKY’S RULE FOR RADICALS AGAIN LIBERALS.”

Always remember the first rule of power tactics: Power is not only what you have but what the enemy thinks you have.

The second rule is: Never go outside the experience of your people.

…The third rule is: Wherever possible go outside the experience of the enemy. Here you want to cause confusion, fear, and retreat.

…the fourth rule is: Make the enemy live up to their own book of rules.

…the fourth rule carries within it the fifth rule: Ridicule is man’s most potent weapon.

…the sixth rule is: A good tactic is one that your people enjoy.

…the seventh rule is: A tactic that drags on too long becomes a drag.

…the eighth rule: Keep the pressure on.

…the ninth rule: The threat is usually more terrifying than the thing itself.

The tenth rule: The major premise for tactics is the development of operations that will maintain a constant pressure upon the opposition.

…The eleventh rule is: If you push a negative hard and deep enough it will break through into its counterside.

…The twelfth rule: The price of a successful attack is a constructive alternative.

…The thirteenth rule: Pick the target, freeze it, personalize it, and polarize it. — Rules for Radicals

I bet the networks have already set up a sound track to cover any boos coming from the crowd.

I switched to the Bernie Events channel:

Sounds like the crowd is uncensored.

“This is just too funny. She said we wouldn’t see a convention such as was seen in Cleveland. Then she’s drowned out by the Bernie supporters.”

Well, she wasn’t wrong about that one.

One of the liberal Seattle radio hosts was saying how different conditions were between the Republican and the Democratic national conventions. For instance, he said at the Republican convention, they kept the waste baskets empty, the restrooms clean and well-stocked, and the air conditioning worked just great. However at the Democratic Convention, they said the restrooms were filthy, the air conditioning didn’t work, and that they were still putting things together at the last second and that nothing was ready.

It makes you wonder....

“We are unstoppable. Another world is possible”. I wonder if they have looked over their shoulders. Those clouds look pretty angry to me.

Calling for thunderstorms for Phila and South Jersey. Clouds are really building up here.

On the radar it looks like a wave of stormfronts are coming in.

With Debbie now gone, it's crucial the DNC quickly designate another staffer to give MSNBC its daily marching orders.

It’s obvious the Democrats are deeply concerned about Party rupture. Repubs have their problems but this is worse.

Sounds like the Brazil(e) Olympics. Hammer it home.

Quoting Dumbledorf (Harry Potter)?

Must be the “Dumb” in the name. When do people quote fictional characters?
