Former DNC Chair Pulls Back the Curtain on the 'Great and Powerful Oz'

"This is really a full scale indictment of the entire power structure at the DNC." ~Byron York, Washington Examiner

I have to give Donna Brazile --DNC chairwoman who took the over the job the day before the DNC primary, when D.W. Schultz was ousted-- credit for having the courage to finally speak out, revealing the Clinton stranglehold on the DNC which led to the rigging their of their party's primary. That being said, however, I cannot help but wonder how the election might have turned out had Brazile spoken out prior to ballots being cast.  Timing is indeed everything.  I am also left wondering if the Bernie Sanders supporters will continue stick with the Democratic Party in light of such damning revelations?  Are the Bernie supporters tired enough of being used and played by the Democratic Party such that they will now find the courage (and organization) necessary to start their own party?  Will these events wind up being the impetus for the emergence of true "third party" in American politics?  If nothing else, perhaps these events will prove to be the closing chapter in the era of Clinton political aspirations?

11/9/2017 Relieved to see most on the left chose not to partake in the organized childish anti-reality "scream at the sky" event yesterday.  The lack of turnout for this event gives me hope for those on the left after all, particularly millennials.  The latter might have it in them to organize in a meaningful, truly representative way, moving forward after all and that will surely do wonders for our representative democracy.   
11/12/2017 I like Greg Gutfeld's suggestion, that the DNC should give Hillary R. Clinton a "life-time achievement award."  Greg notes, paraphrasing here  "[In Hollywood, and the music industry, people always seem to go away after they receive a lifetime achievement award.] "
