I feel bad for her.

Hell, Elizabeth Warren was even on the receiving end of that hatred.

Nobody is safe.

And that is a non productive tactic to say the least.. I feel bad for her too.. and E. Warren.. and R. Maddow just to name a couple more..

I would be highly surprised if she ran again.. just a lot on any one persons plate and then to be an elected official also..

The question becomes where will she land. This will be a test for Clinton’s loyalty to DWS.

I think she's awful. I thought she was awful long before this primary cycle.

I was not a happy camper about the debate cycle.. but they debated plenty.. so that worked out okay in the end

I thought they had more than enough debates this cycle.

But I still think she's awful.

During her tenure. That's pretty salty. And a good reason there hasn't been much of a groundswell to remove her among those relevant to that decision making.

with a lucrative lobbyist position with payday loan industry, private prison industry, big pharma .... she will rest her curly head in a comfy chair someplace working for the 1%.

The President has just about had enough of people demanding he do this or that.. where is his birth certificate.. why does he not say radical Islamic terrorist.. get rid of your choice for DNC chair??.. yeah.. not seeing that happen

while Hillary is off being President? It kind of seems that way, IMO. But not how it actually works...

No, DWS is LOATHED by all, including President Obama, except for Secretary Clinton and her die-hard supporters.

DWS has sucked as a congressperson AND as head of the DNC.

Payday Debbie's tenure will be over in both positions.

Yes...he's for her.

Wasserman Schultz is reportedly very much at odds with White House staffers, and rarely even speaks with President Barack Obama.

The report mainly focuses on Wasserman Schultz’s political future, and whether she should stay on as DNC chair through the 2016 campaign, co-chair a likely Hillary Clinton presidential campaign, or even run for Senate in 2016. A position in House leadership is unlikely for her, as the report notes, because Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) and Steny Hoyer (D-MD) are unlikely to leave any time soon. Her current term as DNC chair ends at the beginning of 2017.

Overall, the report is highly critical of Wasserman Schultz — the latest in a string of harsh Politico stories about her. Just a few days ago, it was revealed that she allegedly offered to change her position on marijuana legalization if one of her critics retracted some not-so-nice words he said about her.

if the next president is a Democrat, that is. Meaning Hillary Clinton will appoint the next chair if she is elected.

If the gods curse us, and there is no Democratic president, then the members of the Democratic National Committee will elect a chair.

There are no "terms" for this position, and people don't "run" for it (at least openly; they probably do jockey for it behind the scenes). The chair position changes frequently, because it is such a shitty, unthankful job. Most chairs serve 2-4 years and that's it. Go look it up in Wikipedia.

But one thing is for sure, there is no "election" (or firing, for that matter) at the Democratic Convention. Wasserman-Schultz will serve through the elections and till Obama leaves office.

And I think Two terms at this is a lot for anyone.. especially for an elected official.. its just a LOT.. but she will not be run out of office.. that is a dead horse

I highly doubt that is going to happen, but it's not out of the question. Doing so this close to the election is pointless.

I believe that in exchange for Bernie's support, he will either give input, or have some form of say over who is appointed.

She's practically complaint-proof. Now about those seats we've lost during her term...

at the start of next year, you already know there will be a few idiots who will take credit for somehow making her step down against her will. I'm calling it right now.

Politics can be a fickle business.

Yay!

Then we can have a conversation as to whether we, as a party, really want to be working with Sheldon Adelson to send sick people to prison for using medical marijuana.

personal grudges.

She should go because she's crappy for our brand, and we don't need the person representing all of us to be in favor of payday lending and sticking medical marijuana users in prison.

too busy over the past few years to concern herself with every pet issue which comes down the pike.

Apparently she wasn't too busy to do her part to make sure Florida would continue to throw medical marijuana patients in prison.

Over the years, I lived in two states which put the legalization of marijuana on the ballot. I voted to legalize both times and the measures lost both times. IMO, not an issue for voting a candidate out of office.

Adelson, who personally funded 90% of the no on 2 movement. Was Adelson being "reasonable", too?

She worked to kill it, and you have patients facing 10+ years in prison as a direct result.

Got that? 10 fucking years. Like this woman- never arrested or in trouble in her life, Because some cops followed her home from the hydroponics store. She moved from Maine where she was a medical marijuana patient, and presumably didn't have "a guy" to score medicine illegally, so now she's Pablo Fucking Escobar.

FLORIDA.

Or this guy, facing 35 years for growing plants for his wife with cancer. 35 years? Prosecutor is convinced he's a drug dealer, despite zero evidence (like scales, or sales, or fucking anything other than the plants) but still... 35 years? Taxpayers are served by this how, exactly?

AGAIN. FLORIDA.

http://www.hightimes.com/read/florida-man-caught-growing-cannabis-cancer-stricken-wife-faces-35-years-prison

What sorts of horrible shit can people do, and not get 35 years in prison? Denny Hastert left a trail of sexually abused boys during his time as a wrestling coach, and he's gonna do, what, 15 months? Stanford rape guy gets 6?

But yes, 35 years for some pot plants in your house. In Florida. Despite having a documented medical marijuana need.

And you know who can be directly thanked for that?

That's right. Debbie Wasserman Schultz.

the district attorney. Law enforcement made no arrests under her direction.

As a leader she is responsible for the stands she takes and advocates for, as well as for the votes she has cast in the House at the Federal level, where again she has voted against reform to laws putting patients in prison.

Good one!

She needs to go and be replaced with someone competent.
