2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Iowa Starting Line - Where’s The Beef, Bernie? [View all]CoffeeCat
(24,411 posts)50. No, this was written by a FORMER HILLARY STAFFER. It's bunk.
Pat Rynard runs the website and he wrote the article. It's nothing but editorial comment coming from a former Hillary staffer who worked on her 2008 campaign.
Suggesting that this is somehow indicative of the views of "Iowans" is an overreach.
It's the opinion of a former paid Hillary employee.

He has pro-Sanders articles on his site. I find his writing to be informative and unbiased.

This article is written by an Iowan for Iowans and you want to suppress it. What are you afraid of?

I'm glad we agree. Most Democrats support Hillary because she is best for the party and the U.S.A.
