Do you even know who the DNC chair is? He's Ken Martin and he's a hell of a good speaker. So is Malcolm Kenyatta. I met Martin at a Democratic event in Tennessee. Have you seen either of them speak? I don't think you have, or else you wouldn't be posting this.
In other words, "you don't know what you're talking about; I know what you're talking about."
