Zero.

Last night was very good.
Bloomberg in particular very effective as "good housekeeping medallion" for centrist Republicans, if there are any.

How many democrats realized they were actually 2000s-era Republicans last night? Bloomberg set the tone correctly.

@4, zero. Why would we need to be Republicans of the past when we can be Democrats of the present and future?
6
Zero. He might have gained some votes for Jill Stein though. It was kind of gross to see Obama and Clinton almost making out on the stage under the bright lights of all the bloated convention fakery.

@5 At least you're not claiming to be liberal. Which is a positive sign of your sanity.

All the old-definition Republicans were already on board. The only "Republicans" left are the pants-on-head variety that are the same intellectual caliber as the 10% of every poll ever taken that believe the moon landings were faked or that fluoride is CIA mind control. No amount of evidence or persuasion will ever change their mind.

@9

Some Republicans will vote for Clinton, but I doubt many will reregister as Dems. But many expressing doubts will come around and support Trump.

An event doesn't change folk's political dispositions, but patterns do.

@10:

Most people in this country don't register for either party, but do self-identify with them. So, if anyone who's always voted GOP switches this year, that's good enough for me.

i'll poll my relatives, but I'd wager none of them watched a second of it.

How many Ansel Herzs (Herzes?) did Obama turn into Democrats last night?

Only half joking...

@7: So good of you to come back and remind us that you're the sole arbiter of who is or isn't liberal. Whatever would we do without your valuable service of telling us we're not real liberals because we dare to disagree with your chosen political orthodoxy?

Please wait...
