Now a detailed and thoroughly documented story. But don't read it, Bob. Wouldn't want to destroy your illusions.

I stopped reading when they started whining about the New York primary. If anything, Clinton was hurt more by that voter purge in Brooklyn.

It reeks of conspiracy theory built upon conjecture but hey, if that's what floats your boat? Have at it.

Translated - Preibus followed the rules. Schultz didn't and got the boot.

Works for me. However, she, unlike Priebus, got the right result for her/his under the circumstances.

FWIW, the most embarrassing emails were from May 2016 when the result was already known to everybody (but Bernie). They were just trying to help him get his corpse off the stage.

This is why I no longer support the democrat party.
Amen to that.

What do you mean "we" Kemosabe?

She's not my candidate.

Trump is no moron.

Trump's march to the nomination through his 16 opponents was like Sherman's march through Georgia. The Dude is good at what he does. If the Republicans think that Pence is going to be to Trump like Cheney was to Bush, they are going to be sadly dissappointed. If Pence tries that shit with Trump he'll wind up working at a K-mart Desk in the basement under a bare 25 Watt lightbulb.

You are far more impressed with this shithead crook than I.
He did it on lies and intimidation. If he stuffs his cabinet with Corey Lewandowskys he may get away with it for a while, but Washington is not Trump tower and nondisclosure contracts won't fly.
