I think the DNC knows that Hillary is not electable

You sound just like the Freepers that told me that with the Jennifer Flowers story, other Bimbo eruptions,and all the known corruption in the Clinton governorship, that everyone in the DNC knew that Bill Clinton was unelectable.

I said it was bull crap then and it is bull crap now.

Hillary is far more electable than Obama or Edwards and those Freepers that want Hillary to be the Democratic nominee are going to be very surprised when she runs a much stronger campaign than Gore or Kerry.

When McCain Feingold was passed Hillary and Bill had their hand picked DNC head, Terry McAulliffe, move all the fundraising to 527s under the Clinton's control. If the DNC wants money they have to ask Bill and Hillary for it.

Remember all the early talk about Howard Dean being a great fundraiser on the internet? Then remember after he became head of the DNC how he was criticized for being unable to raise much money? The Clinton's had fixed so he could not raise money, then they blamed him for his failure to raise money.

When was the last time you heard much of anything from Howard Dean. He finally learned it was not healthy to keep blowing off. The DNC is a toothless hound dog that has no power or influence. It doesn't matter what the DNC thinks..

The DNC has never helped nominate anyone that was not an incumbent president. The DNC charter says it must remain neutral in all primary elections and it does.

The people who make up the DNC are local leaders of the Democratic party. The members of the DNC are the state and county chairman of the Democratic party. They will make up the 20 percent party votes at the Democratic National Convention. They are 40 percent of the convention votes hillary needs to win on the first ballot. Hillary has 95 percent of them in her hip pocket.

She has them because HIllary and Bill have bought at least 95 percent of those delegates. There is zero way the DNC is going to oppose Hillary in any way. They don't dare.

With McCain Feingold in effect the DNC is a worthless organization as is the RNC. They are now just social clubs with out the means to do much of anything at all.

I have studied the media.
And I was a journalist for years.
I agree with what you wrote.

But the difference is this: the Clintons rule the media. And the MSM does not like that. As you said, they like to be the ones in charge. Timmy didn’t like being slapped down by Hillary. They want a Dem they can put in power and that they can control.
Covering up scandals like Sandy Burglar’s treasonous theft is not something the MSM likes to do. Their circulation numbers and ratings are in the tank because they do in fact cover up such major stories.

They want an easier ride in implementing their Socialistic worldview. A clean, non-scandalous Dem President would greatly facilitate that.

But if the C. is all they can get, they’ll be happy to oblige.
