DWS lands on her feet

[JustABozoOnThisBus]

It sounds like DWS will be "honorary chair of [Clinton] campaign’s 50-state program" through the election. Among other services to the Clinton campaign.

1. It's like being appointed water boy

[CentralMass]

2. Wow...This is going to grow some legs.

[radical noodle]

4. The carrot to get her to resign?

So we don't have to listen to this drivel on the MSM all week?

[NYC Liberal]

5. Good. Hopefully she'll have a position in the WH.

Perhaps Chief of Staff.

[woolldog]

6. or get a job at Goldman.

[NYC Liberal]

8. Nah. Chief of Staff sounds good to me.

[woolldog]

9. Sanders supporters will be livid.

[JRLeft]

27. If she doesn't win the primary she will most definitely end up in the cabinet or being paid

lucratively by a bank or lobbying firm.

[notadmblnd]

16. It'll have to be a position that congress does not have to approve of

DWS is now toxic

[NYC Liberal]

17. Like I said, Chief of Staff.

Also, Congress is toxic; I wouldn't take their potential refusal to confirm her as a sign of anything. Five months later and they are still refusing to vote on a SCOTUS nominee.

7. Ugh

So unbecoming for Clinton to embrace DWS, only confirming Hill's just fine with
DWS's misdeeds.

11. So true

[Silver_Witch]

14. This ^^

18. Why? Debbie is the one who made it all possible.

“I am grateful to Debbie for getting the Democratic Party to this year’s historic convention in Philadelphia,” she said, “and I know that this week’s events will be a success thanks to her hard work and leadership.

“There’s simply no one better at taking the fight to the Republicans than Debbie –which is why I am glad that she has agreed to serve as honorary chair of my campaign’s 50-state program to gain ground and elect Democrats in every part of the country, and will continue to serve as a surrogate for my campaign nationally, in Florida, and in other key states.

“I look forward to campaigning with Debbie in Florida and helping her in her re-election bid – because as president, I will need fighters like Debbie in Congress who are ready on day one to get to work for the American people.”

22. DWS "made it all possible" alright ...

sabotaging Bernie's campaign in violation of the DNC charter, that is.

Heck of a job Debbie.

[notadmblnd]

28. apparently she was offensive to more than just Bernie people

In addition to the friction with Sanders and his supporters, donors were upset over the way they were talked about in some of the emails, and were complaining: “They talk about us that way?”

In one email exchange in May, national finance director Jordan Kaplan and one of his deputies, Alexandra Shapiro, strategized about where to seat a major Florida donor, Stephen Bittel, at a DNC fundraiser featuring President Obama. Bittel, a real estate mogul in south Florida, appears to have exasperated the officials, the documents suggest.

“He doesn’t sit next to POTUS!” Kaplan wrote.

“Bittel will be sitting in the sh—iest corner I can find,” responded Shapiro, who also referred to donors who had yet to confirm for the event as “clowns.”

The top party official also said that Wasserman Schultz called the president and offered her resignation. She expects to continue to help out through the end of the convention.

Just one example of the behavior she condoned of her subordinates.

[Snotcicles]

30. Must be a typo, there is one to many zeros in that "state program" if she is talking about DWS. nt

[insta8er]

23. Yup..

[Duckhunter935]

10. The ends justify the means

Sickening.

Step One: Get a house...

31. guess we should be glad Schultz wasn't black

I would hate to see the racist crap you would have posted if that were the case.

[OKNancy]

15. "honorary" = not paid

People sure do like to get all riled up

[RandySF]

20. Either people don't know what 'honorary' means

Or they are just looking for a fight.

[femmocrat]

21. That's OK. Aren't she and Hillary old friends?

Would people rather see our delegates booing or screaming at her (like the repukes)? It shows grace to let her depart with some of her dignity. We aren't vindictive like they are.

[insta8er]

25. DWS was her co-campaign chair in 2008.

[warrprayer]

29. Rec for comic relief

[awake]

32. Looks more like a face plant to me

With DWS removal most of Bernie's requests have been meet. Good that are party is healing.

[JoePhilly]

33. The perpetually disgruntled will hate this too.

DWS MUST MUST MUST MUST resign!!!!!!

Wait, what?????!!!!!????

[Scurrilous]

35. Let the fulminating begin.
