The prophesied demise of the Democrat Party

Mr. P,

Forgive me my master, but you are going about this the wrong way!

"We the people" want Hilary to run again in 2020! ;) She was robbed by misogynist democrats! :( The glass ceiling needs to be broken! Only Hilary can do it! "We" need to keep her in the game..... for the children! Not enough POTI candidates refers to voters as deplorable! "We" need to celebrate her insight and vision!

You should use your considerable wealth to start a Go fund Me page for Hilary or dropping seed money into her 2020 campaign. Water and fertilize this weed, don't try to pull it!

You are most welcome!

"When you have an open contest without an incumbent and competitive primaries, the party comes under the candidate’s control only after the nominee is certain. When I was manager of Gore’s campaign in 2000, we started inserting our people into the DNC in June. This victory fund agreement, however, had been signed in August 2015, just four months after Hillary announced her candidacy and nearly a year before she officially had the nomination.

I had tried to search out any other evidence of internal corruption that would show that the DNC was rigging the system to throw the primary to Hillary, but I could not find any in party affairs or among the staff. I had gone department by department, investigating individual conduct for evidence of skewed decisions, and I was happy to see that I had found none. Then I found this agreement.

The funding arrangement with HFA and the victory fund agreement was not illegal, but it sure looked unethical. If the fight had been fair, one campaign would not have control of the party before the voters had decided which one they wanted to lead. This was not a criminal act, but as I saw it, it compromised the party’s integrity.

Donna Brazile turns on them all!

Post by Nonc Hilaire »

Interim Democratic National Committee (DNC) chair Donna Brazile placed blame for the party’s financial woes squarely on former President Barack Obama and Florida Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz in a Thursday column, excoriating the pair for handing over complete control of the party to the Clinton campaign almost a year before she secured the nomination.
I think part of this is payback for the time Hillary called Brazile a "dazed buffalo".

Yep, the US political-cultural compost heap is fermenting nicely. The process even becomes steamy.

Sustainable, organic, infinitely renewable, biodegradable, green energy...... as well as a damn fine circus..... what's not to like?

Unless you're a racist, misogynist, ______-o-phobe, science denier!

Luckily, this phenomena is often zip code specific and isolated. Hard not to feel good about one's life while watching these clowns, isn't it? The ultimate reality show. If the circuses are good enuff, the unwashed don't care bout bread. Understand the strategy now?

Jerry Springer show cultural integration appropriation (CIA).

Or in ORZ lingo, 'Misery loves company!"

Sorry pal, but, the only safe space is between your ears, but unfortunately, not everyone has an adequate volume....... obviously! Life is so unfair.

It seems *some* Progressives are getting fed up with Identity politics

In fact, it was such a BAD look that the super progressive and liberal group, Democracy for America, announced they would no longer support Ralph’s campaign because it was RACIST.

> @DFAaction announced tonight it would no longer support @RalphNortham, called his campaign "racist" pic.twitter.com/hCcj4UyR2R

Or maybe Northam just isn't "rascist" enough

I have looked at the Seth Rich story with a skeptical eye. But sometimes strange things happen that support the narative

DNC’s Donna Brazile Dedicated Her Book to ‘Patriot’ Seth Rich, Whose Death Made Her Fear for Her Own Life

By Max Kutner On 11/6/17 at 11:38 AM
Now Brazile may be setting up Elizabeth Warren for 2020 and just shamelessly using this story to promote Warren's creds with the Bernie Brohs. (Most likely), maybe she just wants to use it to reform the Dem party Or maybe both. There is no doubt that the Clinton camp now has Brazile on their enemies list. They have even accused her of Colluding the Russia.
Former aides to the Clinton campaign have challenged Brazile’s claims. In a November 4 open letter, more than 100 former top aides wrote, “It is particularly troubling and puzzling that she would seemingly buy into false Russian-fueled propaganda, spread by both the Russians and our opponent, about our candidate’s health.”
We'll see.

There was this "peculiar" interview with Assange on Dutch TV that bears most weight as the implication is clear:

The Democrat Party is in a turmoil I have never seen before. Both parties have suffered their share of crushing defeats over the years but never the mindless hysteria and stupidity exhibited by this crop defies any explanation.

As such they are finished. it is literally a year since Trump won the election and to this day Democrats are in a death match trying to kill each other. They have no leader, no leadership, they have dozens of potential candidates for 2020, none with name recognition or a dime to their name. They are raising no money, have no message. No party has ever won with this level of disarray. Even if Trump/GOP were in a weak period they would beat these dolts.

I see no path for survival for the Democratic Party.

Reuters | Democrats win bitter Virginia governor's race
WASHINGTON (Reuters) - Democrat Ralph Northam won a bitter race for Virginia governor on Tuesday, dealing a setback to President Donald Trump with a decisive victory over a Republican who had adopted some of the president’s combative tactics and issues.

Northam, the state’s lieutenant governor, overcame a barrage of attack ads by Republican Ed Gillespie that hit the soft-spoken Democrat on divisive issues such as immigration, gang crime and Confederate statues.

Nat Post | Transgender candidate wins Virginia House seat, beating incumbent who sponsored state’s bathroom bill
RICHMOND, Va. — A transgender candidate defeated an incumbent Virginia lawmaker Tuesday who sponsored a bill that would have restricted which bathrooms she could use.

Democrat Danica Roem, a former journalist, is set to make history as the first openly transgender person elected and seated in a state legislature in the United States. She unseated Republican Del. Bob Marshall, one of the state’s longest serving and most socially conservative lawmakers. The race was one of the year’s most high profile, drawing international attention and big money to the northern Virginia House of Delegates district outside the nation’s capital.

“It’s historic. … It sends a message to politicians everywhere that the politics of bigotry is over,” Democratic House Caucus Chair Charniele Herring said.

Roem will be the first transgender member of the House of Delegates and will become the first out transgender person to win and serve in a state legislature, according to the Victory Fund, a political action committee that works to get openly LGBTQ people elected and has supported Roem.

Roem, who couldn’t immediately be reached for an interview Tuesday night, openly discussed her gender identity during her campaign, but it was far from her focus. Instead, she focused on jobs, schools and, with particular fervour, northern Virginia’s traffic congestion.

Mostly irrelevant, VA has been trending blue, one of the few swing states Trump didn't win, NJ is blue and Christie is toxic there. Democrats have no path for the House, Senate, State seats, WH, etc.

Politicians typically try to appeal to the lowest common denominators of fear and hope.
Interesting that here one has a situation where it back fired.
Either a credit to Virginia voters or the infrastructure problems are severe or both.

This obsession about which bathroom about 0.3% of the population uses seems odd.
