Congresswoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz of Weston, chairwoman of the Democratic National Committee, won't gavel her party's national convention to order on Monday afternoon.
In a brief phone conversation with the Sun Sentinel, she said:
"I have decided that in the interest of making sure that we can start the Democratic convention on a high note that I am not going to gavel in the convention," Wasserman Schultz said.
...
Wasseman Schultz declined to answer further questions.
Bernie hasn't been the target of decades of sensationalist right wing slime attacks. Even with that, it's clear that Repubs would much rather have faced him in the election given the amount of concern trolling we've seen from them.
Oh, and from you as well.
Eh, one candidate in this election is making Idiocracy look like a future predicting documentary and it isn't the one you're implying.
She infamously had to step down from the Michael Dukakis presidential campaign in 1988 after stoking an unsubstantiated rumor about a George H.W. Bush affair.
After watching Bernie supporters behavior today, I am so glad he lost
Sounds like you self-identifying as an apologist.
That has to be the funniest post of the day!That's why I am for Hillary, keep this country out of the gutters, both on the right, and the left.

So the woman who is replacing her also has emails in the leak that she wrote and casts her in a poor light. It's not like she hasn't been caught up in this shit for almost 30 years now.
I'm amazed that so little publicity has been made of the fact that these emails were hacked and released by Russian secret service hackers. The fact that Russia is attempting to so blatantly interfere in our elections in favor of Trump should be a wakeup call-Putin plans to walk all over Trump if he becomes President. Putin knows Hillary is too tough and will stand up to his imperialist ambitions to reconquer Eastern Europe country by country.
let's not go crazy and put Donna Brazile on the same level as DWS.
Brazile, in a single email, expressed annoyance at Sanders. there's no obligation for DNC staff to not express emotions towards candidates, and Bernie himself was pleased with the choice of her as interim chair.
You must be living under a rock. the entire LMSM has ran with this diversion/conspiracy of a story.
Zero proof of Russia doing anything, yet all the talking heads want to ignore the problems with the DNC and want to claim Russia is for Trump.
Pot, have you met kettle?
The DNC preferred Clinton in 2008, but fell behind Obama when he won. If Sanders had won the primary, they would have done the same. You think Reince Priebus wanted to be up on that stage Thursday endorsing Donald Trump? Hell no, but it was his job.
Wake me up when the DNC prevented a single Sanders vote from being counted during the primary.
The word "rigged" these days seems to mean "I don't know how this thing works but I seem to be losing at it."
Schultz's dismissal suggests otherwise.
How: The DNC created an uneven and biased playing field by aligning resources to support the presumptive nominee, most evident in the debate schedule and other efforts to shield Clinton from having to address Sander's populist message early on in the campaign seasonCan you articulate just how the DNC rigged the primary? Can you also show the impact of that particular incident?

Influenced, perhaps, but rigged, probably not. Pretty hard to quantify that effect. The bottom line is, had Sanders attained the minimum required delegates, and more votes, sans the Supers, he and his supporters may have had a case. The fact is, she still got more votes in the primaries. Was the DNC doing some underhanded shit? Well, the email leak says yes.
