(2,096 posts)The two of them have proven throughout this campaign that they are not fair arbiters. Leaving them in these roles are a big FU to Sanders and his supporters that is unacceptable if there is to be any chance of unity.

(2,052 posts)I am so happy Bernie did this. Frank has been an ass the entire campaign over stuff from 20+ years ago. Let it go man.

(1,078 posts)It's a bad look Bernie. Challenging credentials? After what the Nevada Dem Chair did and the way DWS has acted. Disagree with them in all sorts of ways. Lord knows there are lots of areas to find fault with Malloy and Frank. Especially Malloy. But challenging credentials? It's a bad look.
And I'm a Bernie supporter.

(4,234 posts)At the very least, they need to be discussed by the party as a whole. Bernie is not opposing Mallow and Frank b/c they are likely to support Hillary but because they have gone way beyond the bounds of decency and fairness in their support of Hillary and their opposition to Bernie. The position they have been given requires, it seems to me, an openness to both sides of an issue, something that would not be possible from either of them given the remarks they have made.
I have no issue with Frank or Malloy being on platform, but they should not serve as chair. I believe in letting all voices being heard, but with them as chair, I see Nevada all over.
