Email from the DCCC

We’re confused…

After Bernie Sanders’ inspiring call to unity, we thought at long last Democrats would…well…unify.

But sadly that’s not what’s happened. Grassroots Democrats just haven’t stepped up.

The entire world is watching to see if the Democratic Party can unify today. And frankly, we’re questioning whether that will happen.

We’re sorry to plead, but is there any chance you can help? We will lose out on our chance to win the White House and Congress otherwise.

Will you answer Bernie’s call and chip in $1?

Looks like the DCCC is nervous and are gauging whether the grassroot Democrats will come through for Hillary. This certainly does not bode well for the Party or Hillary.

2. Here's some advice. Don't believe everything you read on Jackpine Radicals.

In fact, you probably shouldn't believe any of it.

it almost seems like they're blaming someone.

I would give to individual candidates long before I'd ever give to the DCCC.

Google DCCC an look at some of the Tweets up. The language isn't even identical. I'm simply going to assume we have now heard from HA Goodman and this is his next avenue of ratfucking. He proved it was pretty easy.

9. Dear DCCC, Sanders supporters mostly give directly to candidates

The basic idea is to increase progressives in Congress,

that interest probably doesn't extend to support incumbents that booed America's favorite progressive.

Encourage candidates to profess support of Progressive issues, apologize for booing as necessary, and ask for direct support.
