Convention over, Clinton faces hacking, Trump criticism

Democrats drew more TV viewers to their convention than the GOP on the first three nights, but 29.8 million people watched Clinton’s acceptance speech at the Democratic National Convention Thursday night, Nielsen estimated.

Bill Clinton shot up in the national Gallup poll by 16 percentage points following his convention in New York City, helped by the withdrawal from the race by independent candidate H. Ross Perot on the last night of the meeting.

In a statement, Clinton said she was “very moved” by Ghazala Khan’s appearance.

‘We could go on with issues, including her plans for sensible gun safety and for combatting (sic) terrorism – her policy positions are laid out in detail on her campaign web site – but issues in this election are nearly secondary to questions of character and trustworthiness, ‘ The Chronicle wrote.

Clinton’s selection of Kaine as her running mate could boost her appeal with moderate Republicans. “I’m starting to agree with you”. “I am not telling you everything is peachy keen”, Clinton said at an event on Friday in Philadelphia. “We’ve got to make this economy work for everyone – not just those at the top”.

In her speech on Thursday, Clinton, 68, a former first lady and USA senator, promised to make the United States a country that works for everyone if she is elected.

“It’s a very noisy time in polling, especially during the next six weeks”, said John Della Volpe, director of polling at the Harvard University Institute of Politics.

“As of tomorrow, we have 100 days to take our case to America”.

Later Friday, Ms. Clinton and Ms. Kaine visited a K’nex factory in Hatfield, Montgomery County, where interns had built Ms. Clinton’s signature “H” out of the linking construction toys. They pointed to liberal protests as evidence of Democratic disunity, and they said Clinton did not do enough to make herself likeable and trustworthy to skeptical voters.

“We have to go over some numbers”, he said at a rally in Denver, a liberal stronghold.

Tana Market, 26, switched from being a registered Republican to Democrat to vote for Sanders, but come November party lines won’t matter for her. She expressed extreme distaste for both Clinton and Trump.

“It was an ideal setting for him, and he was successful going through it, you’ve got to give him credit for that”, said Romney.

The times also require a person who envisions a hopeful future for this nation, a person who has faith in the strong, prosperous and confident America we hope to bequeath our children and grandchildren, as first lady Michelle Obama so eloquently envisioned in Philadelphia.

Clinton won the Democratic labor and blue-collar vote in her failed 2008 presidential primary bid. The decision to campaign through this region right out of the Democratic convention sets up the Rust Belt to be one of the epicenters of the general election. Clinton, 68, portrayed Trump, 70, as a threat to the country, saying “a man you can bait with a tweet is not a man we can trust with nuclear weapons”. Tim Kaine from Virginia as her running mate. “Despite the fact that I and a lot of other people thought he would not be an ideal nominee, he is”.

“There is no doubt in my mind that every election in our democracy is important in its own way, but I can’t think of an election that is more important, certainly in my lifetime”, Clinton told the rally at Temple. In the furor that followed, party chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Shultz resigned just as Democrats launched their convention. But they said they can convince voters that Trump’s change is so radical that a vote for him amounts to a Faustian bargain that could compromise American values.

“What I heard last night and over the last couple of days at the Democratic convention was exactly the right note”.
