The Iowa caucus is February 1st and the New Hampshire caucus is February 9. Every moment the Sanders' campaign is denied access to its own voter and donor information, is possible lost revenue and potential lost votes. Access to that information needs to be restored today so the campaign can continue its work this evening and this weekend.

IMHO

I'd go for the Joker option, if I had to diagnose.

I'm surprised to see you advocating for keeping truth from coming out. No matter--it's going to.

wrong. I get that. Shifting the blame to an innocent party is abhorrent. I get that, too. Holding the Democratic Party hostage at 600k a day to fund his campaign is repugnant. That is true. But still, I think it is against DU rules to call Sanders a lying pile of fuck.

1) "Bernie Sanders" isn't threatening the sue the DNC, the Sanders Campaign is.
2) They are suing to get ACCESS TO THEIR OWN DATA, not because they are "actively attempting to undermine our campaign."

I do think she has been very biased in this primary election. A DNC chair is supposed to be neutral not only say they are neutral but actually being neutral. She hasn't been.
