Civil War: DNC

[Cow Poke]

The DNC made a judgement that Sanders was too extreme to win. I think there was a good basis for that, though in light of today's politics, I think they might well have been wrong. Still, they were trying to come up with the best candidate.

And they settled on HILLARY!?!?!

[Cow Poke]

I never defended her, nor have I, if I remember correctly. That she lost to trump is a huge embarrassment. This election more than most seemed to be voting against the other guy.

I think that's a pretty fair assessment - I most CERTAINLY was voting against the other guy.

I think Hillary would be an OK president. However she was a lousy candidate and I agree that there was reason to know that in advance.

She may end up indicted after all over campaign law violations.

Donna Brazile's book sounds like big hoot!

Brazile paints a scathing portrait of Clinton as a well-intentioned, historic candidate...

Savage!

"Well-intentioned"? I can't think of a less accurate way to describe Hillary. She and her campaign were entitled and nasty from the start.

[T-Shirt Ninja]

The Democratic party should really be ashamed of itself after this nonsense. I think the Republicans are in much worse trouble, but Democrats have their own disastrous nonsense to deal with here.

Obama took America to the edge of a cliff. Hillary would have pushed us over.

Obama left the DNC in horrible financial position - $24 MILLION in debt, but Donna Brazille claims this was hidden even from her...

the only reason why the rnc is in more trouble than the dnc is because the dnc base is servile and weak, none of this will lead to any discernible change and their elites will continue to play their subhuman IQ base for the retards that they are.

She will never face any legal repercussions (my expectation). She has too many supporters and those who oppose her very strongly tend to . . . disappear.

They spent the equivalent of what a local restaurant in a large city might spend and FWIU a significant portion of it appears to have been after the election. As for how many people believed what they said ... I would like to see evidence that it influenced many votes.

So they put their money on someone who was too crooked to win

This analysis sounds eerily similar

Sanders had support from people who normally aren't interested in the Democratic Party, had one of the highest approval ratings of any notable political figure in the country, didn't have any real scandals, and was non-establishment in an election where voters were clearly showing they were tired of the establishment (meanwhile, I can't think of anyone who's more establishment than Hillary).

Sure, this is with the benefit of hindsight. But I think Sanders would probably have won had he been the one to go up against Trump.

I want to see Sanders vs Hillary vs Trump in 2020!!
