Once Bernie assures the DNC that the cookies have been fed to the dogs, he'll regain access and all will be forgiven.
After Bernie gave her a pass on her E-mail scandal and then she and her buddy Debbie pull this chickenshit?

That's not exactly right. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz has said that access will be restored once she's satisfied that the (presumably) Clinton data is no longer available to the Sanders campaign. That process will obviously take as much time as Wasserman-Schultz wants it to take.

No similar steps were taken in October when the Sanders information was breached. Why do you suppose that was?

Meanwhile, the Sanders campaign has no access to their own data. This is all of a piece with DWS' other attempts to keep Bernie out of the running like, for inatance, limiting the number of debates and holding them at times when the audience will be small.

There's a petition at MoveOn.org demanding that the DNC immediately allow the Sanders campaign access to their own data. If you think this is a disgrace, sign it and please consider contributing to the Sanders campaign.
Done and done. Thanks for providing links and clarification on this for everyone.

Shot the messenger, it's the American way.
From the link posted.
Quote:
“The Democratic National Committee's decision to attack the campaign that figured out the problem, rather than go after the vendor that made the mistake, is profoundly damaging to the party's Democratic process,” said a statement from Charles Chamberlain, executive director of Democracy for America, a progressive advocacy group. “DNC leaders should immediately reverse this disturbing decision before the committee does even more to bring its neutrality in the race for president into question."

Maybe this kerfuffle will increase viewership for the "Star Wars Debate" on Saturday.
