The nastiness from Camp Weathervane continues

Former Dem official: 'Go f--- yourself, Bernie'
By Harper Neidig

A former deputy executive director of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee (DCCC) on Friday lashed out at presidential hopeful Bernie Sanders in a post on Medium titled "Go f--- yourself, Bernie."

The post was in response to Sanders implying that rival Hillary Clinton was praising President Obama in order to "win support from the African American community where the President is enormously popular."
"It’s not just Black people that love Obama. The President is 'enormously popular' among all Democrats. Welcome to the Party," former DCCC official Brandon English wrote in his post.

All she has are lies, conflations and ever-changing positions. Its easier to nail jello to the wall than to know where she stands on any given issue at any given moment.

Face it, Bernie is scaring the shit out of them and they're gutted that they won't be getting those coveted cabinet positions.
