well it is a theory, that Howard and the moonbat base of the Dems don't want Hillary leading the party even if we all know her leaning to the centre and right is just fake so perhaps those persons who want to undermine Hillary in the DNC itself will use this issue to try and bury her
though frankly, I don't think Howard can afford to get on the wrong side of Hillary, she and Bill are the biggest fundraisers for the party but I don't Howard is smart enough to play hardball, but I could be wrong - after all the Clintons did not get their man in as DNC chairman....
and yet how just how good is Hillary at fundraising if she had to fudge the numbers on that gala or she'd have bankrupted her Senatorial campaign, hmmmmm, though the problem is that pledge she made to Lazio
now if I were Lazio I'd be pissed off to find out Hillary cheated on her deal with me, maybe the NY Republicans can make some hay out of it
Getting to your post late....you make good sense, and the message is that the Democratic party is divided. At this time I hav eno other thoughts but to help further divide the Democratic party. We can do that. We need to focus.
