So, basically, despite the fact that in reality both candidates were perfectly fine for the position, now you have to take up pitchforks and stomp your feet and work to undermine the party because the party didn't virtue signal the right way?

Perfectly normal. Donald Trump and the republicans are obviously better now because the Bernie endorsed candidate is only the deputy chair.

It doesn't loving matter who the DNC head is, so long as we find grassroots. The party will be defined by the base, and the base is moving left.

Similar on the right. Priebus wasn't guiding his party to victory, he just latched onto the Trump snake and rode it to a 70k vote win in three states and a popular vote loss. The republicans are defined by their base, which wants to deport women with brain tumors to Mexico.

Because it's a stupid loving gauge to use. Ton Perez is a loving labor champion. Bernie pleaded with the party to push labor as a major platform. Ellison was fine too, but using this election between these two candidates as your measuring stick is ducking dumb and bad.

The choice wasn't DWS vs Ellison (or even Perez) and losing your loving mind over the fact that a really labor friendly guy who is beloved by unions and will work to strengthen labor and make it a party plank won over a guy who is basically the same but plus a Bernie endorsement is some weird cult of personality poo poo.

the saline just slowly gets absorbed into your blood but in the meantime you got a big round smooth distended nutsack

dnc chair is a party functionary whos job is to coordinate funding and resources, if u want to influence the ideological constitution of the party u have to actually vote in primaries and not just tweet about how the dems are dead forever because bae ellison didnt win

I'm cautiously optimistic about his positions, and I'm not sure the Clinton-Obama camp is willing to sew more bad will into the party at this point. I just hope he doesn't get shouted down from promoting progressives by shitheads like Feinstein and Manchin

You're almost there! Now imagine a candidate that was both and how frustrating it would be to watch them lose.

Then dial it slightly back because your statement is a bit hyperbolic and you will understand.

The only thing resembling a "bone" the Democratic Party has thrown its left wing in decades was creating a leadership position for Bernie that basically translates to "popular guy who gets us free PR by campaigning all the time and is not actually heeded w/r/t strategy or policy in any substantial way"

This would have been a super easy one for them to do but they just... couldn't... manage it

Yeah it wasn't about the candidates for a lot of people. It was about Bernie vs. The Establishment battling for the ideological future of the party. They might kind of have a point though.

Perez is a Clinton lackey. I think Bubba and Shrillary now have the reins of the Demonrat Party.

Is this how the party intends to rebuild?

Kind of like repairing the Oroville dam spillway in California. Years of neglect of the simple maintenance duties have all compounded to cause the present-day disaster.

And there has been no money set aside for the rebuilding effort, even if the worst part of the catastrophe has been averted for the moment.

I watched the DNC debate and he seemed last likely to win so this is good news. People that watched on you tube were chatting and were calling Perez “sore throat guy”. The whole group was a bunch of lovers. There was a guy that looked like Sheldon Cooper from big bang theory and his name was Pete Butt and another guy with a huge nose named Peter Packard then there was Ellison and the black chick that seemed like a nuttiness version of Donna Brazille named Jehmu and she earned the name shamu or aunt jehmumu and a bald chubby guy that looked like stymie from little rascals the white chick seemed the most normal for a democrat and surprised she didn’t become the front runner since she was young. Kinda seemed like Gabi Tulsa
