Petralicious said: "I always thought it stupid how Bernie fans say they refuse to vote for Hillary. Even though I still think it stupid, I can almost understand why. This is the second time now that a top DNC person has showed that the fix was really in against Bernie. Bernie was right, it really was not a fair contest. This is not Hilarys fault but she needs to denounce her and call for her to be replaced. This Brazille must be fired and join Debbie on the beach.

WikiLeaks has just revealed that Brazile, in fact, actively conspired against Sanders, acting as a “mole who tipped off Clinton campaign about Sanders planned Twitter storm.”

There aren't many Sanders supporters saying that anymore.

And I'm suppossed to be mad that Donna Brazile forwarded some tweets?

I was a Bernie supporter in the primaries. I am now a Clinton supporter.

I was genuinely disturbed by some of the revelations from the DNC - as I was by the consideration of some at that organizaiton to out Bernie as an atheist.

But I'm finding it hard to be concerned about this report about Donna Brazile and the Twitter Storm.

It seems to me that if one Democratic campaign tells the DNC that there is or is about to be a twitter storm - and, it might be asked, why would they share that info if they wanted to keep it under wraps? - over something, there is nothing wrong with anyone at the DNC sharing that information with any other Democratic campaign. The DNC owes a duty of fair-dealing to all the campaigns. And, yes, indeed, there were problems with that in this cycle - and, thankfully, heads rolled over it.

But this particular instance isn't a case of that. This is a case of, if anything, the DNC being fair to all campaigns. Moreover, the DNC has no obligation to keep secret information from one campaign shared with it by another one, least of all when that information concerns social networking which is already underway (my reading of the story from the link below) or about to be imminent.

The implosion continues...now he seems eager to take everyone down with him.

Nate Silver's NowCast just went over 90%

The idiot Republicans who keep endorsing and un-endorsing remind me of Mary Macgregor in The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie who, trying to escape a fire, "ran hither and thither until she died".

Sad, really.

The rest of the campaign is going deeper into the gutter than American politics has ever experienced. Women are going to come forward saying that Trump stuck his fingers in their vaginas and forced his tongue into their mouths, and starting Thursday evening the Trump campaign will have on Hannity every woman who has ever claimed that Bill Clinton raped her. The Trump campaign has vowed to turn Bill Clinton into Bill Cosby.

The worry here is that millennial women (and men) have become accustomed to erring on the side of believing a woman when she says she was abused. Young people will not necessarily see Bill Clinton's accusers as women who have been manipulated by the Trump campaign to voice their stories for Trump's political benefit. They will equate the experiences of the women accusing Trump with the experiences of the women accusing Bill Clinton.

Trump knows he's going down, and he wants to bring Hillary and the media and the office of the presidency and the United States down with him.

The most vile election of my lifetime. I can't wait for it to be over. I predict voter turnout, especilly among millenials, will be at an all time low.

I think most young people already know that Bill is dirty old man, and do not really care. I do think the emails of Clinton and her staff mocking Catholics and People of Faith are a big dangerous wild card. It really hurt Obama when he talked about Those people with their guns and God. Probably how he lost the Evangelicals.

It does not matter if it was just one email about something to people that this is important to.Just like one remark about "those people" or Romneys 1 remark about 47% of people pay no taxes. Or even one remark about grabbing someone by the ****. Or I am not a crook, One remark is all it takes. Groups are already making this a big deal.

I hope she fires and denounces them. That would calm everyone down.

Oh and Washington Post also calls Center for American Progress a Liberal Thinktank too

Get out of bubble everybody - it's your duty.

1) "Liberal" does not equal "Democrat."
2) https://www.americanprogress.org/about/mission/
From your link:

As progressives, we believe America should be a land of boundless opportunity, where people can climb the ladder of economic mobility. We believe we owe it to future generations to protect the planet and promote peace and shared global prosperity.
And we believe an effective government can earn the trust of the American people, champion the common good over narrow self-interest, and harness the strength of our diversity.

Yes, this does sound Democrat at all!

Ok HER, does that make you feel better? Fire Her.

newintown said: You sound as though you think that (very American) mission statement is some insidious Communist plot.

I am implying nothing of the statement. In fact I like most of it. I am implying that your statement about it is not honest.


And if you think that one remark doesnt matter, than you are not being honest about that either. Just think about all the one remarks that have caused uproar or change.

It is dishonest to say that the Clinton Campaign, and I am not blaming her personally but her campaign, has been on an anti-religious agenda. This is not just one email. This is Washington Post saying this...

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/acts-of-faith/wp/2016/10/12/wikileaks-emails-show-clinton-spokeswoman-joking-about-catholics-and-evangelicals/

It is not just ONE Email. There is the another one about "The Catholic Spring"

Another email that was released appears to suggest that Clinton’s campaign set up Catholic groups to organize on issues such as contraception. Sandy Newman, president of Voices for Progress, wrote in an 2011 email to Podesta that there needs to be “a Catholic Spring,” referring to the “Arab Spring,” a wave of demonstrations and protests in the Arab world.



as well as the using Jewishness against Bernie thing that happened earlier.

arlier in the summer, internal Democratic National Committee emails were published publicly that appeared to show officials discussing using Sen. Bernie Sanders’s faith against him with voters, with one saying “my Southern Baptist peeps would draw a big difference between a Jew and an atheist.” Those emails were also published by WikiLeaks.

None of these Emails from WikiLeaks has been discredited
