  • Just imagine if the media actually reported on the wiki leaks of the DNC emails. I hate trump but if he was smart he would pound that home.

    Probably because there is nothing in the emails except boring shit, like Clinton going to work everyday and doing her job.
    You obviously haven't seen them. Talking about demonizing Sanders over his religious beliefs, trying to control what is said on certain news programs about how the DNC chair is handling the primary fairly.It's pretty sad so many are fine with this kind of behavior.

    I don't necessarily have a problem with the DNC pushing a candidate they feel has the best chance to win and represent their agenda. Pushing the platform is their mission. Even with that said, Hillary won by millions of votes.

    Those emails will become a problem with time. Meanwhile these one's are not going away.

    The email conspiracy is dead. Yes, trump will pounce on it. But people's opinion are already set, for the most part. I don't see anyone that was considering voting for Clinton not voting for her because trump is going to try to keep the email scandal alive.
    very true. while my choice is not made yet, the email nonsense will not be a factor in deciding.
    Email nonsense? That easy huh. How about the DNC email nonsense? Just brush it off as no big deal, huh. All the shadiness and red flags surrounding the party and Clinton, yet we accept it as no biggie. That's amazing.

    Gotta admit though, that last one was a bit Hillaryous (thread integrity).

    And now, we resume our regularly scheduled show...

    You're correct that her VP pick is irrelevant. But not for the reason you think. Clinton could have picked OJ Simpson and she will still beat the donald. He has no chance.

    Totally agree. He hasn't got a chance. It's all for ego and show. HRC is a shoe in and a Big Foot shoe at that.
    It is so dangerous to think this way. Sure, Clinton will easily win California. California is irrelevant. This election, like the ones in recent history, will come down to about four or five states. People in those states will fight for every vote. It's not going to be easy in my neck of the woods. I'm in one of those states.

    That's not the DNC's job. They're not suppose to be pushing one person. I don't know what is so hard to understand about this.

    I'm talking about mainstream media on TV where the average person gets their news. Not websites that are mostly for political junkies, who quite frankly already knew this. So the DNC is supposed to be a fair and unbiased committee helping all nominees equally. That clearly didn't happen.

    You'll have to explain to me what is democratic about sending people on TV and other news outlets to demonize one of your parties candidates. Because that is exactly what happens. I thought America was about getting a fair shake. Whether it be in politics or your job.

    After all this the fact that you think Hillary and the DNC are separate entities is laughable.

    In a week following BLM protests, Police shootings, the RNC, France attack, Germany attack, etc., you think the 30 minutes of evening News at 630PM is going to find time talk about some emails between staffers at the DNC on how to attack Bernie Sanders? That hardly seems relevant in the big picture and won't change who the candidate is next week. Do you think these emails change the outcome? Did you change your vote based on what someone in a 3 min appearance on the Chris Hayes show said?

    Shall I remind you of all the demonizing of HRC that took place by the actual Sanders campaign?

    She will not win CA as easily as you claim. Her and Sanders nearly split the vote, many Sanders Supporters are jumping ship. Either voting green or not voting. If Trump has a solid turn out he will certainly come close.

    just as im fed up with radical liberals and their constant hate, im fed up with conservatives bitching about emails.

    So that means that the country doesn't have a right to know how things were happening? You say staffers, as if it were a bunch of low level people. It was the heads of the DNC doing this.

    You'll have to remind me of the demonizing that took place by Sanders. Probably wouldn't really compare to the stuff Hillary did in 08. Didn't her campaign send out that photo of Obama in Muslim garb?

    I hope third party voting is huge in this election. Two awful candidates from the big parties. Two crooks.

    Either dont vote or vote third party

    The DNC is a political organization . . . For Democrats. Who cares if they were emailing each other about how to defeat the Socialist who hijacked their party? Personally, I wish they had never even allowed the Socialist to run under the Democrat banner.

    Oh, you don't care for socialism? Try not to drive on any roads this weekend. Or depend on our military at all. There are so many aspects of socialism ingrained in our society already. Good luck.

    To a pragmatist like me, that comes off like a Trump endorsement!

    Word up. Awesome area.

    Indeed. Actually being a dumbass and hoping on the bike in 100 degree heat to head around the city and check out all things DNC going up. Perhaps a little lunch at the reading terminal thrown in.
