    The leader of the DNC is excited Mamdani won the primary…

    And the second example…

    On Saturday, 35-year-old Minnesota State Senator Omar Fateh won the Minnesota governing party’s endorsement for mayor of Minneapolis. Without any major organizational backing, Fateh defeated the two-term incumbent Jacob Frey, who had the backing of Senator Amy Klobuchar, former Minneapolis Mayor Sharon Sayles Belton, and a long list of party officials.

    Guess what he thinks about him?

    The neoliberal’s control of the DNC is over, and Martin is taking the purpose of the party back to what it always should have been:

    1. Run fair primary
    2. Support anyone with a D in the general

    And thats all we need from the party, the rest is on the voters.

      The neoliberal’s control of the DNC is over

      The Year is 2008

      Howard Dean has been elected DNC Chairman

      The era of corporate control over the party is dead. Clintonism is in full retreat. Dems are doing a 50 State Strategy, because they want to be a party for All Americans

      Demographics is Destiny! The Long Arc of History Bends Towards Progress! There’s no way the empire will ever strike back!

      And thats all we need from the party, the rest is on the voters.

      A voter is smart. The Voters are dumb, panicky, dangerous animals and you know it.
