They should feel absolutely taken they let a retread old hag under multiple federal criminal investigations with one of the worst track records in the history of US politics rig the primaries and with the help of O pretty much destroy the democratic party.
They are a national party no more. They are a collection of the wealthiest elite and the dregs of inner city social outcasts.

quote:

“I may very well be done with political giving entirely,” said John Morgan, an Orlando attorney and one of Clinton’s top fundraisers in Florida. “My message to anyone reading this is, ‘Don’t call me, I’ll call you.’ From here on out, I’m giving to charities. I’d much rather give money to build a new Boys & Girls Club than to give to the [Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee].”

John is a huge slime ball ambulance chasing attorney but I can agree with him on this.

If everyone took this route, our Republic would be a better place.

Well, duh! If you were truly a concerned citizen, that would have been your MO from the beginning.

Admitting the problem is the first step to recovery.

Democratic investors went in on Clinton to the tune of more than $550 million, believing she would dispatch Trump, deliver Democrats the Senate and help the party make inroads into the GOP’s House majority.

That's a lot of money down the toilet. What they will never, ever GET is... I think both dems and republicans were disgusted with the dirty politics WAY below the belt. Where money is spent paying people to riot and make the opponent (Trump) look racist and bad. Obama is just as corrupt; and don't be fooled by his fake approval numbers. Their transnational progressivism is not appealing. They are all as arrogant as George Soro's in not caring what people think. It is their way or the highway and they were shown the highway.

I've been saying for YEARS that if you're running around talking about about how much you care about people direct action is better.

Forget conservatives for a minute. Imagine if every Hillary voter decided tomorrow that in 2017, they were going to either donate 40 hours of time or money this year to whatever they care about in their communities

And if Trump keeps winning they literally might have killed the Dem party as we know it, which is a VERY good thing. Zell Miller and Sam Nunn Dems are solid....but they'd be considered Alt Right in this brave new world.

Trump has very low expectations and a very, very low bar. It won't be hard for him to juice the economy and look like a hero.

I still can't believe how little flack Robby Mook has gotten. The dude literally pulled advertising from Wisconsin, Michigan, Colorado, and Virginia in like AUGUST, despite the fact that money was no object to the Clintons.

Further, the campaign never visited Wisconsin, most key parts of Michigan, etc.

I'd love to see an analysis of how poorly Mook ranks in a historical context of modern campaign managers. The only caveat I'd give him is that he had a very ill and old candidate who was unable to really pound the pavement

Well when you back a nag in the Kentucky Derby, you get what you pay for.

She did get the post office renamed. So that's a positive ...if you felt the post office should have been renamed.

Lying liars lie, it's what lying liars do.
John Morgan will change his tune as soon as any winds of true tort reform begin to drift through DC.

Yeah, but when you think you think you can control that nag and make her do you favors down the road...you throw money at her.

I don't disagree Mike but you know what they said about assuming don't you?

You hit the nail squarely on the head. Crooked was so low energy. Even Obama took a swipe at Crooked saying, he went to every nook and cranny county in Iowa. Crooked thought (even after Bernie's supporters rejected her) she had it in the bag and didn't have to do anything but hide from email questions. She could not fill a small gym and had no appeal. Yet democrats are shocked?

I don't even think a Corey Booker/Julian Castro will work for them. Identity politics no longer works and it is all they have. They sure don't have any ideas outside of their canned meaningless speeches and false promises.
