IF Hillary doesn't get a huuuuuge bounce out of these last 4 nights, it really would be

time for that Canadian move. That was a monumental 4 days, outstandingly devised and executed, where the co-ordination of what people want to say (and how they said it) will be spoken of for decades.

All going well, Hillary should have a commanding lead by September, and this provides a defining moment in the history of the United States to re-double efforts to smash the Republican Party in all the down ballot races. We've seen what they did to President Obama for 8 years, in a less than hidden undercurrent of racism. Given the chance, they have no shame and would do the same to Hillary. The USA cannot suffer another 4 years of this selfishness.

There is an opportunity for the Democratic Party to create a generation changing Government, I hope they leave nothing behind in their efforts to do so.

There are too many voters who will always vote Democrat or Republican for that to happen.

Winning is what matters in the election.

it's spelled yuuuuge. You must get your Trumpisms correct

Yes...she should score a big bounce from this convention...but we can't become complacent no matter what the polls say. Let's campaign like she's down 20 pts!!

But don't expect it to be huge. I expect her to be up by 2-3 in the RCP by the end of next week.
