      I mean, they have a point. DNC chairs shouldn’t be picking winners. Hogg is free to make his own path. If there is internal corruption he should start by exposing it.

        The second the shoe is on the other foot.

              Remember Debbie Wasserman Shultz and how everyone was pissed at her for pulling strings for Hilary?

              We don’t need to recreate that.

              I think there could be arguments that the DNC could set their agenda and eject anyone who opposes it but just trying to root people out through back door deals is not great.

                Sure is convenient that the party suddenly wants impartiality when centrists might get primaried.

                They didn’t have primaries last cycle and just told us who we were expected to vote for and that wasn’t a problem. That was just 6 months ago.

                Democrats care about neutrality like republicans care about fiscal responsibility.

                Centrists: Don’t vote for third parties, because they can’t win. Work within the Democratic Party.

                Also centrists: Not like that!

                So I remember a political party behaving like one? Yeah, I do.

                The party spends money on candidates that’s how politics works (which sucks but whatever).

        DNC chairs shouldn’t be picking winners.

        That’s what the DNC does. Just look at recent history.
