I hear baseball connection, obscure facts, the seventh game in a World Series in a POTUS election year, has a history.. Seems that a National League Wins goes to Dems..... A American League goes to the Reps......

Clinton campaign chair asked lobbyist where to “stick the knife in” Bernie Sanders

http://www.salon.com/2016/11/03/hill...d-email-shows/

Quote:
The chair of Hillary Clinton’s presidential campaign, John Podesta, said he “agreed” that Sen. Bernie Sanders needed “to be ground to a pulp,” according to a newly released email. Podesta asked an influential Democratic Party operative and lobbyist with ties to an array of powerful corporations where the campaign should “stick the knife in” Sanders, Clinton’s rival in the Democratic primaries.

In February, longtime Clinton adviser and Democratic insider Joel Johnson had sent an email to Clinton campaign head John Podesta, emphasizing, “Bernie needs to be ground to a pulp. We can’t start believing our own primary bullshit. This is no time to run the general. Crush him as hard as you can.”

When are we going to see his hacked internal emails? The second Tuesday of next week, I'll bet.

She took it easy on the old duffer.

538 used to be the Gold Standard for the Democrats.

But they have it 65% Hillary, 35% Trump as of today, so I guess they are Republican biased now?

If able to later today (7PM CST pod cast) or listen if your local Public Radio Station airs ""This American Life"" aired a story about Clinton and the server.

https://www.thisamericanlife.org/rad...er-domain-name

Was unable to listen to the whole story but what I was able to hear was very interesting and enlightening. They will replay it later today local hope to then get the complete episode.

Just passing it along.
