I cannot believe you are standing by that post. You are flat out saying it was Ok for the Democratic leadership to play favorites in a legitimate primary! Are you nuts?

There has to be fairness in ALL primaries.If anyone runs as a Democrat who meets the requirements they must be treated fairly by the DNC!. Civilization is based on "order" and a rule of law.

When you say you don't give a shit that the DNC cheated it leaves me speechless. The progressive wing of the Democratic party had a right to support whomever they wanted and the right to expect fair treatment by the DNC. Not withstanding the fact the progressive wing is half the party. And I would argue the better half :)>!

Your saying you don't care if the DNC cheated is exactly the type of thinking we progressives don't like to hear.

koan: ""Do you think it was ethical for the DNC to play favorites"
Wharf: "I don't have a problem with the DNC wanting an actual Dem to be the candidate.

koan:" "do you think Hillary knowing about it was ethical?"
Wharf:" Do you think I give a shit?

koan "the DNC is also over hauling the super delegates provision that gave Hillary such a leg up it"
Wharf: "They're also trying to get rid of caucuses, which is where Bernie got most of his delegates. About 5 million Obama '08 voters didn't turn out to support him; instead, many voted in the R primary for Trump.
