DNC funneling $ into Hillary in Texas

'Impartial' DNC finance chief helps Hillary
Fundraising assistance in Texas flouts presidential primary neutrality rules.

In an apparent violation of party rules requiring Democratic National Committee officers to remain neutral in presidential primaries, the DNC’s finance chairman has been raising money for Hillary Clinton’s campaign.

Henry R. Muñoz III, a former fundraiser for President Barack Obama who became DNC finance chairman in 2013, is helping organize a Wednesday fundraising event for Clinton in San Antonio, Texas, according to longtime Democratic operative Gilberto Ocañas and Bexar County Democratic Party Chairman Manuel Medina.

She has no chance of winning SC or TX in the General election. They could run a bush carson ticket on the R side and it wouldn't make any difference. So what does it say about the nominating process that one of the candidates is staking their claim to the nomination on winning states that will not be in play in November?

5. The DNC is shooting the Party in the foot. Then, it will blame the left of the Party. Unbelievable.

Where getting Democratic candidates elected instead of a bunch of lunatic teabaggers should have been a huge priority. Perhaps we wouldn't have the craptastic Senators and Representatives we now have in Congress.

The DNC can eat dirt and will not one damn dime from me. Fuck 'em.
