Obama put the DNC in a $24M hole. DNC turned to Hillary to fundraise them out of debt in exchange for full control of the DNC and the nomination. It's really not hard to understand.
It's actually this simple, kids. :nod:

The DNC favored Hillary Clinton. Shocker. Hillary Clinton is a Democrat. Sanders is not. That's not the same as "rigging" the primaries.

As I said during the primaries: The only instances in which the polls showed Democratic primary voters favored one candidate but the other candidate won were instances in which the polls showed Hillary favored but Sanders won.

The Democratic primaries were not "rigged."Clinton won because more people of Democrat persuasion favored her.
Not in New Hampshire they didn't. :coffee:

So you don't understand the corruption that can occur when one candidate is in control of the party before and during the nomination process? :roll:

If Brazile hated the Hildebeast so much, why did she feed her the Dem. debate questions?

And the left-on-left fighting is stepping up...
Dozens of members of Hillary Clinton's campaign reacted Saturday to former DNC head Donna Brazile's bombshell allegations and insights concerning the Democratic National Committee and the Democratic primary during the 2016 campaign.

The latest reveal from Brazile, courtesy of a preview of her upcoming memoir published by the Washington Post, accused the Clinton camp of treating her like a "slave," expressed concerns about Russian interference, also detailed her consideration of replacing Clinton with then-Vice President Joe Biden as the party's presidential nominee after a health scare. The news Saturday followed another big claim revealed in Brazile's memoir, as reported by Politico this week, that Clinton struck a deal with the DNC which looked like an "unethical" takeover.

"We were shocked to learn the news that Donna Brazile actively considered overturning the will of the Democratic voters by attempting to replace Hillary Clinton and Tim Kaine as the Democratic Presidential and Vice Presidential nominees," the open letter began. "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.

And what did Bernie say?

Cid, unless the report I saw yesterday was incorrect she explcitly said she did not say the primaries were "rigged." The report referenced the #notwhatIsaid thing on Twitter. Unfortunately I can't get to the original Donna Brazille tweet. Maybe you can do it. The #notwhatIsaid thing is at https://twitter.com/hashtag/Notwhatisaid?src=hash.

There is a difference between saying the primaries were "rigged" and saying the DNC favored Hillary. "Rigged," to me, means there is no way Sanders could've won regardless of how strong his actual support was.

That was not the case. In fact, it was clear throughout that a solid majority of people who planned to vote in Democrat primaries favored Hillary. Sanders never had a chance to win the majority of Democratic primary votes because minority voters overwhelmingly favored Hillary. There was never a situation where Sanders threatened to have the support of the majority of Democrat partisans but had to worry about losing anyway because of a "rigged" system.

John you're playing semantics. She didn't use the word rigged. She just said the Clinton campaign had an unethical agreement with the DNC that they (Clinton) would make all decisions. Read between the lines. :roll:

Guys, I said all along during the primaries and afterward that I thought the polls showed that the Sanders was the stronger candidate for the General Election. I wondered why the Democrats couldn't see that.

But the primaries were not "rigged." Within the population of people voting in Democrat primaries Hillary was favored before they started. Hillary was favored while they were going on. Hillary was favored afterwards.

Perhaps they should have favored Sanders if they wanted to maximize their probability of winning the general election. But they didn't.
