Recent DNC election of Tom Perez puts a lot of scandals on display as democrats were thought to be headed a different way than the previous failures that resulted in many election failures including the Presidency.
It was another slap in the face by the Democrat establishment to Bernie Sander's supporters and the progressive wing.
Democrat's selection of Perez who was part of the illegal election tampering of denying Bernie winning in new Hampshire will surely eliminate a large number of voters who will leave for the Green party.
. Democrats Sure know how to fracture a party to guarantee losses. They have cornered the market on how to alienate voters.
Dems' focus needs to be state legislatures, governor's mansions, and House seats. If this party is going to be successful and really make a policy impact, we've got to stop seeing the presidency as the be all, end all.
I'm not interested in simply winning no matter what. Either the people with the ideas I support run and then be honest about it or it can all fall apart for all I care.
Thomas Perez is an extreme left-wing ideologue in his own right. He made his reputation as the head of the DOJ civil rights division under Eric Holder. Anyone who believes that this guy is any kind of politically agnostic Hillary-bot "moderate" Democrat is in for a big surprise. Perez is a leftist radical who is obsessed with identity politics and political correctness in no uncertain terms. His record on these issues is how he earned his chops.

Democrats are not going to win if all they have is, "We're not Trump". Ok, fine, articulate HOW you're not Trump? And don't give me the identity politics BS, that's all I ask of the Democratic Party.
I just watched Tomas Perez acceptance speech as DNC Chair. He gave a rousing speech looking forward to 5 or 10 eventualities necessary for a re-vitalized Democratic party and wave election. Tom Perez actually said that one of these eventualities he hoped for was a stock market downturn (read crash). WOW!
If you are a worker, you should be sad about it. The Democrats just voted to keep the corporate lobbyist money flowing into their coffers and elected a pro-TPP chair.
Not just the corporate lobbyist money - the Jewish money. The DNC's largest Jewish donor said "no mas" if Ellison was elected. Debbie was there to keep the Jewish money flowing.
Follow the Money and you can't go wrong with figuring these folks out.
