![]() The pressure is obvious and the hypocrisy runneth over. Donna Brazile, the former DNC Interim Chairperson and CNN contributor blew up this morning, irritated by RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel's comments that the Democrat nomination process may be "rigged" against Bernie. Brazile lost her cool, telling McDaniel to "Go to Hell" several times and telling her and other Republicans to “stay the hell out of our race,” adding that she’s “sick and tired” of Republicans telling her about the Democrats’ process. Brazile had to resign from CNN after she "leaked" certain questions to the Hillary 2016 campaign that would be asked during a debate. It was later discovered that she had done this more than once. At first Brazile denied everything but finally in March of 2017 she admitted to sending the questions in emails. She commented, "If I had to do it all over again, I would know a hell of a lot more about cybersecurity." She landed on Fox News after being canned from CNN and serves as a "contributor". Imagine that. A high ranking Democrat (who is also a super-delegate) scolding Republicans on what they can do or say. You just can't make this stuff up. |

There's nothing rigged. At Bernie's request, the super delegate rules were changed after 2016 and he got what he wanted. If Bernie gets the required number of delegates during the first vote at the Convention, he'll get the nomination. If he doesn't have enough delegates and no one else does, there will be a second vote in which the committed delegates may change their votes and the "super delegates" may vote for the first time. That's what Bernie wanted. Now, he is saying whoever arrives at the Convention with the most delegates should win. If I had a say in this, I'd say "**** you, Bernie." |

Her only regret seems to be that her emails were so poorly secured that she got caught in her corruption of the process. The democrats certainly are afraid of a little sunshine on their operation. |

The DNC apparatchiks may just do that. Last minute rule changes are far from unheard of, particularly with the democrats. Have you ever heard the real story of how Harry Truman got the VP nod in 1944? It was a total sham. The Wallace people were simply gavelled down |

Have you ever heard the real story of how Harry Truman got the VP nod in 1944? It was a total sham. The Wallace people were simply gavelled down I went to college in the area, worked for the KC Star, interviewed Truman and met him a number of times, but, golly gee, I had no idea. ![]() Wallace was off the ticket months before the convention. He simply didn't know it. And Truman wasn't the first choice to replace Wallace. You know they write this **** down and there was a lot more intrigue around the VP pick than you seem to want to admit. Maybe Truman remembered things differently when he was almost 90 or maybe Pendergast, never told him but the fix was in from the 40s version of neocons to get rid of Wallace, no matter how much support he had from the delegates. It certainly set the stage for the cold war and the 45 years of brinkmanship that followed. |
