Curses. I was really looking forward to this and now my anticipation is crushed. Seems like DWS was shouted down by her own FL comrades this morning and saw the handwriting on the email.
ZitatPHILADELPHIA — Outgoing Democratic National Committee Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman says she won't gavel her party's national convention to order on Monday afternoon.
She abruptly cancelled that plan just a few hours before she was to gavel open the nominating convention. In a brief phone conversation with the Sun Sentinel newspaper of Ft. Lauderdale, Fla., Wasserman Schultz said:
"I have decided that in the interest of making sure that we can start the Democratic convention on a high note that I am not going to gavel in the convention."
The Florida congresswoman had announced she would resign her post at the helm of the DNC in the wake of an email scandal involving her aides — but still gavel open and closed the Democrats' nominating convention this week. That was before she was booed and heckled as she spoke to her home state delegation from people angry that the hacked emails apparently showed some aides favored Hillary Clinton over Bernie Sanders in the party's presidential primary.
After the RNC commentators such as Chrissy "the thrill" Matthews were all in a dither about how the Republicans behaved and how "dark and dismal" the Convention was. Wonder how such people will deal with this development as well as some of the delegates also shouting, "Lock her up!" 'Lock her up."
I have an idea. The Democrats can claim the DWS disruptors and the "Lock her up!' shouters were actually Russians infiltrated into the convention. Yeah, that oughta do it.
