2016 Postmortem
In reply to the discussion: Friday night's agreement doesn't end the lawsuit, according to a Sanders aide. [View all]ljm2002
(10,751 posts)...WTF????? It is NOT the responsibility of the Sanders campaign to "keep the data secure". THAT would be the responsibility of that company with the very weird name NGP VAT or some such.
So if the DNC wanted to throw out the 10-day window for the Sanders campaign to address their concerns, by denying access to insecure data immediately, it should have denied access to all of the active campaigns until the issue was shown to be fixed.
Otherwise, what they did was simply a breach of their contract with the Sanders campaign, pure and simple.
Which is, of course, why they folded so quickly -- before coming before a judge.
I sincerely hope the lawsuit goes forward. My feeling on this has nothing to do with Clinton but everything to do with DWS, who I find to be deranged. And she has been know to support Republicans instead of progressive Democrats -- publicly no less, and while she was a Democratic Party officer in Florida. Why a person who did that is allowed anywhere near the party apparatus is a mystery to me.
