(10,123 posts)I did not say "the data breach was deliberate". That's your strawman - not mine.
What was deliberate is her campaign's influence on the impartiality and even-handedness of the DNC with respect to other campaigns. Being complicit is an action.
What was deliberate was her also being complicit in the smearing of an honest man.
Running to the media with this security issue (which was the fault of the DNC and it's vendor) was also deliberate on the DNC's part. They didn't run to the media when Sanders data was breached in October, did they?
The whole thing smells really bad and once again, Hillary's completely mixed up in something that smells really bad, like she has many times in her 20+ years in the national spotlight.
The DNC is supposed to be "impartial and even-handed" to the various campaigns. Instead, Hillary has turned the DNC into a corrupt sham - corrupt in that it should not be biased toward a campaign:

1. Scheduling primary debates to garner as few viewers as possible
2. Grassroots Clinton field offices co-located at DNC offices
4. DNC finance chair caught raising money for Clinton
5. The DNC lined up superdelegates for Clinton before first debate
There is absolutely no excuse for that crap. None. It's a disgrace. Countless media have reported on it. You can deny it until you're blue in the face but you're in the minority. It's too blatant.
You can try to shoot the messenger but I didn't do any of that stuff. It was all Hillary and the folks she owns at the DNC.
