oooh ok tonight I can enjoy the dream.... but then Wikileaks had damned well better prove it!

As leftists they really may hate her enough to do it. Hard core leftists truly loathe establishment Democrats, and may think that it’s better to pave the way for Trump and try to provoke a “progressive” reaction going into the future. OR, if they do it right away, they may be thinking that Bernie Sanders can still be substituted on the ticket???

If they have the goods I do hope they unleash them just AFTER the DNC. We don’t want to see the Democrats pull some last-second Hail Mary with a different candidate in Philadelphia if they suddenly decide that Hillary is doomed. Let it wait until she is the official nominee, please.

There is a lot of good stuff at the wiki leaks e mail release.Here's one on dnc internal talking points. Pretty interesting and now that I think about it I have heard the major leauge drivbys using all of these:

Not for distribution, but if we need to talk to anyone about how the map changes with Trump, these are points we can use.

INTERNAL TALKING POINTS ELECTORAL MAP WITH TRUMP

* This presidential election--like all of them in the last 20 years--will be very competitive. We will have to fight hard for every vote.

* We'll be examining this more closely as states move beyond the primaries and some polarizing contests, but we expect the battleground states to look very similar to 2012. Given the results in 2012, this would mean Trump would have to make major inroads into states that President Obama won in both 2008 and 2012 to win.

* Since the last election, demographic changes have made states like Florida and North Carolina even more competitive for Democrats.

* When it comes to partisanship, we're a fairly evenly divided country, but this is likely the first time in a generation where we may have a better opportunity to appeal to more Republicans.

* Biggest threat to Democrats holding the White House is complacency. Every Democrat needs to take Donald Trump at his word that he will do everything he says he will--and Democrats need to turn out for Democrats up and down the ticket.
