    I’ve gotta say even normally progressive and anti-Trump MSNBC runs smack segments against Ken Martin gives me confidence that Democrats should let him cook and bring the DNC into a new chapter.

      Be careful with the whole “enemy of my enemy” thing, billionaire owned media not liking him is a good sign, but it should never be the only thing to look at.

      The big thing is he basically doesn’t have to do anything and he understands that…

      We don’t want a DNC that tries to guide the party, that’s been the problem for decades.

      We need a DNC whose only two concerns are:

      1. Get a Dem into the oval

      2. Get majorities in the House and Senate

      It’s that fucking easy to make progress. And we could have been here ~18 years earlier if Obama had just appointed a progressive DNC chair in 09.
