11. I have no way of assessing any actual damage

DWS may have really done to the party - but at this point that's all mute. Once the M$M and the republican opposition get their claws into this news story it's time for her to make her exit. This is as much about "the optics" as anything else.

It must be tough on a personal level to pour your guts into a job and be told you can't go to the party - but that's all part of being the boss. The buck stops at your desk regardless.

Personally I don't want to give those ratfucker republicans any fresh ammunition.
