44. That's not an answer to my question. Where was Wasserman, or any of the Dem Leadership when Christie

Thu Jan 9, 2014, 03:50 AM

Jan 2014

was boasting about all the DEM support he was getting? What did she DO to stop Dems from endorsing a Republican? What money did she send to help the Democrat, what national Dems did she ask to go and help the DEMOCRAT? What calls did she make to STOP Dems from endorsing someone whose policies in a BLUE STATE are unpopular and where Dems have a voter advantagge of over 700,000?

Don't bother, we know what she did. And we know the excuses that were made. A few token words are what you linked to.

And what will Dems learn from this? They will claim it all worked out the way they had hoped. And who will believe them anymore after leaving the Democrat with zero help, a little of which would have at least caused those Dems who voted for Christie to think twice? Not too many Dems who were disgusted at the time and are now vindicated. Makes you wonder how qualified these people are to lead this party.
