Martin O'Malley for DNC Chair!!

But I repeat..he would be a winner!

July 25, 2016

"The Russians are coming!" And our media doesn't seem to give a damn. Think about it!!

The evidence is much more solid that there is a link between Trump and Russia on the leaked e-mails than there is any evidence that the DNC actually DID anything to hinder Sanders campaign. Memos between DNC staff that PROPOSE some actions to take against Sanders that even their own e-mails said would be wrong do not compare to the links now being exposed between Trump, Trump staff and Putin...not to mention how the GOP would be making a HUGE stink about his wife's dad having been a communist.

That said, think about this: All the lives and treasure fighting the cold war and establishing NATO and other forces to stop the Russian (communist) aggression and we might now elect a person who has both personal and political ties to Russia? How does that honor our military, our sacrifices of life and treasure? Maybe Kruschev was right when he said "We will bury you!"

I have to say, had this been a situation that the Hillary was as close to Putin as Trump obviously is, the media and the GOP would be all over this and you wouldn't hear about anything else. But it seems that our own media is down playing the Russian link in favor or piling on and trashing DWS. They just keep pushing the story that somehow Hillary cheated and did not really win the nomination...14 million votes aside.

Just think if Hillary had totally kicked DWS to the curb we would be hearing how disloyal Hillary is to people who work for her and who helped her and the Democratic Party for so long...in fact long before Bernie Sanders was a Democrat or even well known. It is shameful how HRC has been treated by the media and people who have no appreciation for lifelong service to causes from which they benefit.

Just watching the gangup on DWS and Hillary on Chris Hayes.

I have to say, I am finding Nina Turner more and more insufferable in her obsessive hate for Hillary. And Chris is really annoying. Why would Hillary just kick DWS to the curb after her long, long and hard and dedicated work for the Democratic Party.

I get holding her responsible for the staff under her..that's what people in charge get. But the obsession with not even allowing DWS to even continue to work for the party. Give me a break!

I will say this: We HRC supporters are not as vocal or disrespectful as some...

but we are legion! We will vote for Clinton/Kaine and we will campaign for her.

Folks who can trash a decent man like Kaine really speaks volumes about themselves.

Oh, Sally Kohn just let the cat out of the bag that there were e-mails that showed help for BS

Exculpatory e-mails that are not even being talked about.

So I am asking this about the leaded DNC e-mails...

Those leaked e-mails between and among DNC staffers (Hillary not involved) were they worse for the Sanders campaign than the stolen contributor data performed by the Sanders people?

It seems to me that staffers dissing Sanders in e-mails shows their sentiments about Sanders but had little affect on the outcome of the primary. However, the information that was stolen about contributors was much more damaging to the Hillary campaign. Also, super delegates just didn't come up under these backroom meetings, They were decided long before this election. Did the Sanders people forget their what they did and the number of FEC violations committed by them?

Checking on Twitter it is sad to see that so many bitter-enders can't find anything positive to

say about the VP choice ...even after hearing him speak and learning about his life's work...actual results instead of headlines.
They are just looking forward to the convention where fighting against super delegates will be their main focus.
Really sad at this point.

Any tweets from Herr Don? It seems a bit quiet from the GOP camp.

Oh, I forgot. "CROOKED KAINE"
