Donna Brazile seems to be taking the Dick Morris route to Clinton-hating fame. It's kinda pathetic.

I think Northam was a mediocre candidate who ran a pretty bad campaign but had enough decent positions to be able to reap the rewards of running against a historical unpopular president.

Concerned Citizen posted:Northam outperformed the entire downticket No, he didn't: https://twitter.com/samstein/status/928275979428036608 Dems won house elections 53 to 44, while Northam won by 54 to 45, a similar margin. But there were about 11 house races without a democrat on the ballot.

Maybe Northam'll surprise us like McAuliffe did? I can still remember everyone holding their nose over a Hillary bagman being elected governor.

Over Easy posted:So I procured the Donna Brazile audiobook and I am 3 hours in and you have got to listen to it. She says gently caress and drat the correct number of times and her quips are like when James Carville makes sense. wait, is this story supposed to make Donna Brazile look good? the duck is dumb, but not "go on a long profanity-filled rant about how they need to get rid of it" dumb. she's way madder about a guy in a duck suit than she was about the rigging of the goddamn primaries. of course, shes not mad because it's dumb, she's mad because it pisses off her corporate overlords. in the end, she only manages to get rid of the duck by claiming that they'll piss off a big corporate donor and lose out on some of that sweet sweet campaign cash. truly, an unsung progressive hero

i dont think it makes her look good, i do think it's funny as all gently caress how mad she gets about that drat duck + the reveal that it was basically hillary's pet tactic that folks were too scared to talk to her about

For comparison, imagine if Howie Dean mentioned in a book that he didn't want to deal with such-and-such issue from the Obama camp because some Hollywood producer was having some aspiring starlets cook him brunch that's skeevy as hell, right? This is basically the same thing

i'm not surprised no one told her "no" on the duck. it's not worth really fighting over. if you give the candidate low-cost things they want, it's easier to say "no" when it's something actually consequential

And the whole "ABC/Disney donates to us and there's a copyright issue" part is the cherry on top. They only stopped because the donors threatened them.
