Debbie Wasserman Schultz is now the poster child for transparently terrible, 1% loving Democrats....and for good reason, as the esteemed Bill Moyers notes: "… She embodies the tactics that have…

I see valued commenters Dave falling into a kind of cognitive trap. He seems to think that that Nevada was all about people (Bernie and Hillary), and their supporters. It is nothing of the sort. Nevada is part of an ongoing push-back against the out and out bullshit that has dominated capitalism (and by extension our politics) for the last 30 or so years. In part, I blame myself for Dave's confusion. When I said unruly Democrats would come home when "Warren is announced as VP" I was using a sort of shorthand for the Clinton campaign recognizing that there is a cancer. Consider your take on the economy like your take on climate change. The politics of climate change are binary. You believe is it real or you don't. Similarly, you believe capitalism in trouble or you don't. The question yet to be settled is - what side of the issue is the Democratic Party on? If the Clinton Campaign can somehow show that they understand that climate change (e.g. rigged economy) is real... I see all Democrats coming home. If the Clinton campaign, and the Democratic Party Apparatchiks, can't get over that hill, I see chaos ahead.

If the Democratic Party is to be successful in November, it is imperative that all state parties treat our campaign supporters with fairness and the respect that they have earned. I am happy to say that has been the case at state conventions in Maine, Alaska, Colorado and Hawaii where good discussions were held and democratic decisions were reached. Unfortunately, that was not the case at the Nevada convention.

Above this story about a British Inquiry into the Iraq war, this headline grabbed my attention.

Last night 3,000 other Delawareans and I listened to John Carney say some form of the word "bipartisan" eight times in his brief opening remarks. I shit you not. Then…

First civil forfeiture, now this. While Bonini might look like a giant, freshly-powdered baby, when it comes to making John Carney look like a do-nothing, Republican-sounding loser - he's got game.

Coons is the most radically militant zionist Democrat ever, and he wants you to know it. Ever since his vote last September for the Iran nuclear deal, Sen. Chris Coons…

This is nuts: One day after assuring Americans he is not running for president “to make things unstable for the country,” the presumptive Republican nominee, Donald J. Trump, said in…

I can't wait for the announcement that Jamie Dimon is going to be Treasury Secretary. Hillary forces target Bush donors The message to Moderate Republicans: She represents your values better…

What's with the Hans Reigle snub? Not teabaggy enough?
