How do we shake the conservative plague Wasserman Shultz and Hillary have cast

This discussion thread was locked as off-topic by In_The_Wind (a host of the General Discussion forum).

upon the Democratic Party like a disease of medieval proportions?

DNC is out of hand. They have become crazy with power, as bad as the arrogant above-the-law, too-big-too-fail banks whose asses we are expected to get down on our knees and kiss every election cycle.

It is fair to ask, "who is DNC representing? Real people or Wall Street crooks?"

We need a correction and thank god there is relief available.

Bernie is the best thing to happen to the Democratic Party in my generation.

We can start right there.

Another way is to engage in wildly hyperbolic rhetoric to hide the fact that your candidate shares about 93% of his voting record with the target of your wild hyperbole.

the chimpanzee. It's the 2% (or 7%) that matters.

Your "argument" is a non-starter.

Of course, the 2% is only really important to the chimp and the human. To a disinterested third party, the 98% is key.

And we're still in GD.

Clinton is afraid of Sanders.
Trump is afraid of Sanders.
DU Admin is afraid of Sanders.
The GOP is afraid of Sanders.
Clinton's supporters on DU are afraid of Sanders.
The media is afraid of Sanders.

Everyone who doesn't support Sanders is afraid of him. We're all afraid of Sanders, and that's how we shake.

and thankfully he won't be -- as the vast majority of Democratic voters do NOT want him. Even Liberal Democrats support Hillary by over 20 percentage points.

Why should the DNC get all gung-ho about a guy who only just joined the party 6 months ago, and only because he wanted to be president? What has he done for the last 30 years of his career to support Democratic candidates across the country? He expects the DNC to support him when he has done jack all to reciprocate.
