Plenty of information out there. Just look. She has a ton of achievements spanning several decades. As to future plans look at her website. You are lazy PP.

In the next debate, Bernie can say "what's all this DNC hacking about anyway? Who cares? Right Hillary? [massive audience applause]

1. What is the big deal anyway? The party should let all democratic candidates have access to all potential voter information. More open information will only serve the party to get the best candidate. Is it so bad that Berne and Hilary send an emails to each's others lists and supporters. i don't get it.

2. If this is a problem, why is the DNC even putting candidates at risk for headlines like this?

3. Bernie's campaign is pushing back aggressively. This makes me think there is more to the story. If this turns out to be some internal feud where the establishment folks are trying to make Bernie look bad, then I think this will backfire for the establishment folks and HRC.

4. The main argument I keep hearing against Bernie is that he can't win. That is not all that convincing to me. I even see polls where he would beat every Republican candidate. Many of us support Bernie/Warren types over Wall St candidates because we want change. Change is not going to come by just supporting the status quo. Someone has to take a risk. The world gets warmer, Wall St. get's richer, terrorists get bolder and the current policies keep on chugging...

This is confidential, proprietary information that campaigns spend months and even years developing. It's not just email addresses. SMH.

I am just not that excited about this data. It probably means a lot to individual campaigns and so forth. If those campaigns really think it is valuable, then they shouldn't share it with the DNC. I think the DNC interest should be in getting all the candidates access all democratic primary voters. IF they nave any information that can help get a candidate's information to a voter or get that voter's money to a candidate, then they should share it. If a candidate doesn't believe in this principal, than they should manage the data themselves. Personally, I think democracy and party interests are better served with more openness.

Hillary's campaign spent a lot of time and money calling and canvassing to identify the Democratic voters who supported her, were against her, or were undecided, so they can follow up with persuasion for the undecideds, get-out-the-vote for the supporters, and not waste time and money on the antis. Four different Sanders' campaign staffers intentionally searched that Clinton campaign data in ten early states and saved the files. Those lists are worth millions of dollars and months of campaign work, especially the undecided voters because Sanders' campaign could effectively target that smaller list for persuasion at much less expense than if they did not have that information and had to contact the whole Democratic voter file.

There are clearly serious problems with the vendor. It was known and demonstrated that ALL campaigns have access to everything when they shouldn't. Clinton's team had access to Sanders' data as did O'Malley's and vice versa in every instance. They should shut the software down until all of the issues are resolved. Selectively kicking Sanders out makes zero sense and is just deflecting blame away from the DNC's incompetence in getting these issues resolved.

I dont think he will. Yes, I despise Clinton and I am not a Bernie fan boy. I would prefer he scare her a bit and the party is doing their best to prevent that. Thats what I find annoying.

I believe he would scare the hell out of her if there were more debates or debates during times people actually watch. Scare her in a few primaries and eventually get blown out is how I imagine it would play out.

Well Sanders just got busted for downloading her private voter data today, which I am sure scared her. So there is that.

Can you imagine outrage if the Clinton campaign had done this?

HRC is an old hand at this. She's smart enough to have it done by others without getting caught.

It's funny how you conservatives consider her to be so smart when it suits you. And so incompetent when it suits you.

No, this would be the liberal take on GW Bush WRT WMDs and conning the likes of Biden and HRC to vote yes on war with Iran, while also being a moron. Conservatives I know all agree Clinton is damn smart, dishonest and just downright evil.

No, I fully believe that morons can lie. And Cheney was no fool, either.
