That is quite possible. It is a common human condition. Do you have anything to add other than a vague statement of sorts ( it does not even qualify as a platitude... )?
Exactly my point. I've been explaining this to you and yet you still don't understand.

The Dems, on the other hand, seem to be very actively sticking their heads in the sand and doing everything they can to just pretend that everything is fine. One of the big takeaways I'm getting from this convention is the totally disparate messages between what's said *in* the convention by those speaking and what's going on *outside* the convention, not just by the general public, but by many members of their own party. They're in massive denial. And it seems like their response to all of the problems and questions and scandals is to just pretend they don't exist. They're putting on as much glitz and glam as possible, but it's a paper thin facade.
That happens every election. What doesn't happen every election, is the previous living presidents of your own party dissing you.

Oh. And just to hammer the point home, Clinton hiring DWS was quite possibly the most tone deaf thing I've ever seen done in politics. I mean, she didn't even wait a freaking day. That's just plain brazen.
Maybe. However, if DWS did what she was supposed to (resign and then support her candidate), it would have had the same result.
