Democrats are incensed there's nothing they can do and that there are still some things outside their control.

As well they should have fear. They think their idealism is a substitute for competence.

What are they worried about unless they have something to hide?

Frankly, there are more technologically expert places than Russia. Some of them are not nations but are corporations.
One wonders why Russia would prefer a tough negotiator in Trump over a weak, pushover like Clinton, and one can’t really come up with a good reason for them to prefer Trump. Granted the world would be more stable under a Trump, but Clinton makes it possible for them to win everywhere so easily.

I suspect RATS are buying off if not killing off those whom might consider a surprise. When you live in the sewer like the Dems, and all the Agencies are populated with operatives you know whom all the players are.

What’s to worry? The January thru September surprises haven’t hurt them.

PREDICTION: Wikileaks Founder Julian Assange and possibly others in his organization get wacked in the next two months.

I’m thinking donations are really down so the DNC doesn’t have the funds to pay the asking price for the hit.

Snowden and Assange are the two most wanted men, dead or alive but preferably dead, in the world.

...urging the Obama administration to take tough action...I understand Barky and some "friends" are going to mount a satirical review about Putin on Broadway.

Democrats are incensed there's nothing they can do and that there are still some things outside their control. They still have the massive voter fraud option. With the media running interference, nothing will be done about it.

Of all the criticisms that can be levelled against Hillary, I don’t think that “weak, pushover” is one I’d choose.

Perhaps the democrats should bomb some aspirin factories in Russia.
To: Mariner
“take tough action if it concludes that Russia orchestrated a series of cyberattacks on the Democratic Party”
And if it turns out that it’s “just” one of the all-stars of the hacker community of Bulgaria or China or Sunnyvale who’s been receiving high-fives on their private websites for months?
It’s looked from Day One like they’re “all in” for a Russia-Trump connection and aren’t even entertaining that possibility.
