Don Fowler, how not to help

While I understand where he is coming from (while HRC has the best treatment available pneumonia can be fatal) it is highly unlikely that Hillary's condition worsens, in that I'd be willing to be my life on the outcome, so there is no need to announce something like this.

Yes the DNC should always have a plan for the worst but in this case announcing this will only make things worse.

We don't kick our candidate while she's down; we're Democrats, we help her up and get her back in the saddle.

Perhaps it's time for someone to take the microphone away from Mr. Fowler.

Don Fowler is a good man but it looks like it's time for him to step out of the Public Eye
