I've signed one and then I've seen 2 others. I feel like multiple petitions kind of reduces the density of it you know?

Aside from that, maybe it's a tactical thing to debate after the republican party? You know, like... You go first kind of thing?

... when she wouldn't campaign against them in her state and worked to block any efforts to impeach W earlier too... We should know that she cares more about the corporatists in general than she cares about the Democratic Party if the party selects a more populist set of candidates. That's why DWS should be KICKED THE F'K OUT of chairmanship of the DNC! NOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11111

Venting About Debbie Wasserman Schultz

Steve Clemons - March 24, 2008

Starting at 10 am today, a number of progressive blogs are going to encourage their readers to call the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee to complain about the unwillingness of DCCC Red-to-Blue Program Debbie Wasserman Scultz’s refusal to assist Democratic contenders challenging her pro-Cuba embargo Republican House of Representative pals Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Lincoln Diaz-Balart, and Mario Diaz-Balart.

Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-Fla.) is getting brutally walloped in the liberal blogosphere for refusing to endorse the Democratic challengers to three potentially vulnerable GOP incumbents in Florida. Liberal bloggers are irate that Wasserman Schultz, who co-chairs the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee’s Red-to-Blue program, has declined to endorse the Democrats running to unseat Cuban American Reps. Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Lincoln Diaz-Balart and his brother, Mario Diaz-Balart. Wasserman Schultz says she doesn’t want to stab GOP members of her own delegation in the back. But liberal bloggers say she’s killing her own while aiding and abetting the enemy.

Yes, she's a slimey corporatist. And she chaired Hillarys Florida Campaign in '08, and rigged the primary to benefit her. She will do her best to rig the nomination for Hillary in '16.

Not everyone knows that this is one of Bernie's desires.
