Playing to a crowd of Democrats in Charlotte cheering on Democratic operative Chris Matthews as he hosted his MSNBC program, Howard Fineman blurted “I survived Tampa and am now glad to be here in Charlotte” before he derided the Republican gathering: “That convention was like dropping a bowling ball in a sand box.”

I think the speeches weren’t that good. I think the tone was kind of mean.”
