Source: The Hill

No one believes her even Hillary supporters. They just won't call her on it for fear of hurting their candidate.

Like yeah but no but, she ran Hillary's campaign! Why is she even in the DNC spot? It's so obvious, the blind should see it. This is battling for power and money, and preservation of both. But there's one thing that's creeping up behind us as we goof around, and pretty soon we will be forced to align. And it ain't gonna be fracking. spoiler

That was a joke . . . right? How about "try to be neutral?" That would be an improvement.
