he continues to launch the most cynical attack on the rules of the DNC.

These are rules that the Clintons wanted in order to create Super Tuesday.

They wanted draconian rules so that states wouldn't keep jumping the line but they would pile onto each other and create a defacto national primary - Super Tuesday that would play to their strengths of superior funding, experience and twenty years of passing out favors across the country as one of the most powerful machines.

It was their man Ickes that proposed the rule change that changed the punishment from 1/2 delegate to zero. They needed a punishment that would really sting or a drawn out process would allow a strong field to pick off one primary here and one primary there. The strategy imploded when they bet the farm on ST and lost.


Now they have invented the cynical spin that every vote should be counted and this is some conspiracy against her. It was their conpiracy against the party and it failed. Now, even today, he is pouring kerosine onto the flames by raising the passion about this non existent injustice.


So what happens on Wednesday is we will see if they are finally going to put the interests of the party ahead of their own. Will they fall in line when the presumptive nominee has a huge lead in pledged delegates and super delegates? Or will they launch a slash and burn campaign to force the party to include HRC as a VP?


And also on Wednesday will be the release of the financial reports. They told their supporters to clean out their bank accounts because they were going strong and had the money to fight. They said that they raised "$ 10 million" in one day. If they did then fine. If they didn't, and they won't be able to lie about it - it means that they misrepresented their situation in order to get people, some of them vulnerable - including apparently a boy that sold his bike - to contribute to a dead campaign in order to help pay back their loans.

We already know who has one but having seen these two people consistently take the low road in this campaign then no - I am going to wait until the end to see if they any interest in the higher interests of the party or the people who have supported them.


Your comments about the rules are pure jibberish that you have taken from spin of the Clinton campaign. Tell me what are you going to say on Wednesday when it turns out that the Clinton campaign did not raise $ 10 million in one day and it was a bare faced lie?
