Congratulations, DNC!
By Mitch Berg
And congratulations to Ken Martin on his election as head of the Democrat National Committee.
Democrats – you’ve made a great choice.
Provided, of course, that the national media is as compliant, even sycophantic, as the MInnesota media (although I fully expect to start seeing “Another Look at Tim Walz” pieces in the WaPo any day now).
And provided, of course, you have an efficient-enough machine for laundering billionaire and public employee money into your campaigns (although Martin excels at that).
Good news for Kamala Harris and Nancy Pelosi, though – he’s the kind of leader they need, if you catch my drift:
Martin has endorsed RIchard Carlbom to replace him. Carlbom was one of the architects of the Same Sex Marriage amendment – successful mainly by turning the debate from a moral and ethical one to an emotional one. But he’s not always been successful.
Among the vice chairs is David Hogg. Who is going to get right on the business of tackling the cultural and moral malaise that has brought so many young people to Trump:
And I’m gonna guess…
….that all that “Elon Musk gave a Nazi salute!” yapping is gonna stop.

Ken Martin’s qualifications ate that he does as the major donors tell him to.
David Hogg’s qualifications are that he wasn’t shot by a crazy student.

Is it a Nazi salute, or a White Supremacy Salute?
Its hard to keep up.

Hogg has got an Elmer Gantry vibe about him – worth keeping an eye on this particular Toadd.

Oh, so that is why we have been seeing Klobuchar’s hair in her face so much on a national news.
Can she be the next Kamala Harris?

Now that David is the Democrats vice-chair, does that make him Boss Hogg?

Can she be the next Kamala Harris?
This is about the only area where I could see being “Senator Do-Nothing” might be an advantage for her over the “resume” that Harris brought.

“Boss” Hogg’s comments about children are reassuring in a way–that no children are going to be directly affected by his insanity.

I’m sure that the discussion among the American Communist Party/Democrats, was; “Hey. If Martin could get blithering idiots like Walz, Omar, Klobitcher, Smith, McCollum and Hakim Ellison elected, what have they got to lose?”

Never interfere with a cliche when they are doing cliched things.
