Mala hierba nunca muere,
Bad grass never dies. It’s my favorite metaphor for crappy establishment politicians of all stripes. DWS’s chairpersonship was overdue to be finished a while ago. That’s by the simple standard of how long anyone should retain the position. That she’s resigning now gives me little joy considering she was probably going to resign sooner or later.
That the DNC was working to undermine the Bernie campaign is bad enough. That it comes out now, after we’ve gone blue in the face talking about how the DNC cannot be trusted and being dismissed like petulant children and after Clinton’s victory is secure? That’s infuriating on so many levels.
Now we’re in the position of staring directly down the barrel of a gun, and all the while the DNC has been doing its damnedest to undermine its own credibility by refusing to do the simple thing and just act nobly.
