67. No. I'm saying that considering the corruption in the Democratic Party now, I really don't

care if he criticized it.

I am now, what with Debbie Wasserman-Schultz's handling of the primary, the debate scheduling, the scarcity of debates, the scandal around her handling of the situation that arose when NGP Van released the databases with a bug in them, all that, make me strongly critical of the Democratic Party and agree with Sanders' comments about it.

Very sad. Very sad.

Looks like Wasserman-Schultz is dividing our party. I hope the division is not irreparable.

I have been very active in the Democratic Party locally when possible. I am very sad about what is happening.
I think Debbie Wasserman-Schultz needs to resign. We need completely new management at the DNC.

Hillary is a very bad candidate. When the allegations of Seymour Hersh come to be understood by Democrats and voters, Hillary supporters will understand that she is a very vulnerable candidate indeed.
