Nov 2017

given it's only a year before the 2018 mid-terms.

This was at the time. Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #1
Not correcting her? Magnanimous? (nt) ehrnst Nov 2017 #47
LOL! I know! Since she was mistaken in her conclusions she took it that way @ d time. Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #48
Her description of his reaction struck me as odd GusBob Nov 2017 #2
Sounds like she was surprised too and thought he was being magnanimous which she did not expect Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #4
I hope she kept those candles, she's gonna need them !!! OnDoutside Nov 2017 #10
I knew this back in 2015, the people who wrote and published Hortensis Nov 2017 #20
I'm sorry but no GusBob Nov 2017 #15
I feel more magnanimous myself about her than others here. JMO. Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #18
Perhaps "Gospel Music" is used as a literary device, akin to "Believe Me" or "Would I lie?" TheBlackAdder Nov 2017 #56
He had probably already read the agreements. NCTraveler Nov 2017 #3
Should have relayed to her. Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #5
Maybe he did. He sure didn't jump on the bandwagon yesterday, even when Trump tried to emulatorloo Nov 2017 #9
But Our Revolution did with a mailer asking for donations over the whole "rigged" mess. Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #11
Egg on their faces now, right? emulatorloo Nov 2017 #14
No. It'll make money and most people will never hear that the whole thing is a farce. Squinch Nov 2017 #73
Yes, within the hour. ehrnst Nov 2017 #58
Howard Dean should know NastyRiffraff Nov 2017 #31
We dont know the facts of the call. NCTraveler Nov 2017 #22
Exactly! Phoenix61 Nov 2017 #7
but instead he was lowkey and not interested. Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #13
But he sure as hell isn't speaking up when someone else is being vilified! KitSileya Nov 2017 #44
He attacked trump for trying to divide the party. He focused on health care, climate change and tax mucifer Nov 2017 #52
Bernie showing, once again, he's a class act... InAbLuEsTaTe Nov 2017 #67
+1000. ehrnst Nov 2017 #60
Speak up? You mean like others did when DB gave them CNN debate questions in advance? InAbLuEsTaTe Nov 2017 #68
Isn't it clear to everyone that Donna Brazile did that to set Hillary up? KitSileya Nov 2017 #75
He signed an agreement with the DNC, too, so he knew this was a nothingburger. nt procon Nov 2017 #41
Didn't want Brazile to know this, apparently. (nt) ehrnst Nov 2017 #61
Exactly. Can you imagine bernie being low key unless Kahuna7 Nov 2017 #76
She can't write. I'm surprised she didn't mention the scent of the candle... NurseJackie Nov 2017 #6
Ok. But this whole shebang could've been avoided if he had corrected her "findings" Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #8
Yes indeed! You're absolutely correct! It reflects poorly on BOTH of them... NurseJackie Nov 2017 #12
Warren was wrong & did not know the truth. Sanders knew the truth. Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #16
If any other person knew ... NurseJackie Nov 2017 #23
Yep, it is a small detail but very telling. Would be interesting if reporters asked both ab ph call Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #33
I'm sorry, Brazile owns this. She and her publishers had an obligation to get the facts right emulatorloo Nov 2017 #19
She is a big girl and yes she owns this. I hate what she did but I do not hate her. Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #21
Bingo. (nt) ehrnst Nov 2017 #62
But She Did Decribe Her Me. Nov 2017 #35
### NurseJackie Nov 2017 #36
Donna is really dumb. She lost her job at CNN and needs some money now. PubliusEnigma Nov 2017 #17
Bernie is a complete class.act, cilla4progress Nov 2017 #24
Bernie doesn't play politics? radical noodle Nov 2017 #34
Yeah.... Career politician. (nt) ehrnst Nov 2017 #63
The honest thing to do would be to let someone know when they're wrong. NurseJackie Nov 2017 #39
And if he didn't quite know what she was angling for then, and was reticent, KitSileya Nov 2017 #45
Those unflattering reasons you hint at are likely the same ones that come to my mind as well... NurseJackie Nov 2017 #49
Jeff Weaver has spoken for him. ehrnst Nov 2017 #64
In what way would Brazile be using Bernie? ehrnst Nov 2017 #57
Gracious, almost to a fault. Bernie just keeps showin why he's an extremely popular political leader InAbLuEsTaTe Nov 2017 #69
We see Bernie very differently. And that's ok. We got to agree to disagree. Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #70
We do and, yes, that IS okay... maybe, in a weird kinda way, this latest InAbLuEsTaTe Nov 2017 #71
I honestly feel like even if something untoward happened, Bernie would not discuss it. Tatiana Nov 2017 #25
The point is that nothing untoward was going on w/regards with DB's findings. He knew that. Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #27
So instead he'll let Brazile and Warren spread lies about the Democratic Party KitSileya Nov 2017 #46
Who benefits from that mistake that Brazile made? ehrnst Nov 2017 #65
Not discuss it with who? ehrnst Nov 2017 #59
Well said!! Certainly one of MANY reasons why I supported Bernie in the primary InAbLuEsTaTe Nov 2017 #72
Bernie's from NYC. I don't think he's the type of guy that takes anything someone says to him at jalan48 Nov 2017 #26
I am from/in NY myself. Interesting explanation, that's all am gonna say. Someone should ask him. Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #28
Maybe it was the gospel music he could hear in the background and he thought, jalan48 Nov 2017 #29
Not sure why people harping on her gospel music, am atheist myself, but it seems fine with me. Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #30
Not harping, it was meant as humor. This really isn't about Bernie anyway-it's about Donna. jalan48 Nov 2017 #32
Of course melman Nov 2017 #37
Nah Bernie did real good! Is funny how Donna does not realize what she is saying in that excerpt Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #42
Yes, everyone knows Bernie runs the DNC... seriously, Bernie is a class act. InAbLuEsTaTe Nov 2017 #53
I'm still trying to understand her motivation. Was this her editors demanding some "juice" to sell.. brush Nov 2017 #38
maybe w/her interviews tomorrow we will learn more... Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #43
"I lit a candle in my living room and put on some gospel music... Mike Nelson Nov 2017 #40
Not only was BS "lowkey" lapucelle Nov 2017 #50
You're right... if it were me, a get-well card would have been enough. InAbLuEsTaTe Nov 2017 #54
I wonder if the meeting to deliver the get well card lapucelle Nov 2017 #55
It would be good to get ALL the facts out... the sooner the better InAbLuEsTaTe Nov 2017 #66
And it's only two days fore the 2017 election. lapucelle Nov 2017 #74
this is sounding more and more bizarre..... samnsara Nov 2017 #51
We will see what Bernie says about it blueinredohio Nov 2017 #77
Makes sense. Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #78
Kicking! Madam45for2923 Nov 2017 #79
