I will reserve judgment on the data breach.

In the meantime, the Sanders campaign will have to work with voter roll lists. What I don't like about all this are some of the connections between the software vendor, the DNC, and the party structure including the Clintons and how they can let the "investigation " drag out. This has ramifications that can cause a party rupture.

repeated requests for information, there's something "up" all right.

And, when supporters run around ginning up outraged "petitions" to the DNC demanding reinstatement while insisting that "the campaign reported the breach" and it turns out that the VENDOR reported the breach, well, I think there's a problem percolating there.

The Sanders campaign needs to cough up three more names. The longer they wait, the more it appears that they're trying to conceal who those three people are. If it's "no one important" or a "low level staffer" then they'll get a few questions from the press and they can wave them off if they want.

The more they stonewall, the worse it looks.

I'm just starting to read about this today, but there appear to be similarities with Watergate.

"and how they can let the "investigation " drag out.

Make assumptions about others that aren't born out in reality. Nice.

New campaign slogan. "Reserve Judgment, Pass the Buck!!!!"
