It would seem these "coastal elites" should be more capable of ponying up than their redneck counterparts.

Twitter activism is a lot more self-aggrandizing

Seriously, though, @JUSE_HEDD 's post above might mean this is turning around.

Not sure why this is breaking news? The Democrtic party has always struggled money wise without a machine in the form of a powerful presidential candidate.

When Bill Clinton left, Obama left and Hillary left something was required to fill the vacuum, as their respective machines pretty much bankrolled the DNC. It's not about Bernie vs Hillary like some people would like to argue upwards of the thread.

What the DNC should have done was listen to Howard Dean and put resources into developing a 50 state strategy that would allow for organic, continuous growth. It sometimes feels like they lurch from general election to general election with no clear plan.

It's 2 years from 2020 and no democrat has stepped up to be the front runner. These people are morons.

Not necessarily. From what I can remember the majority of people from both parties who step up too early get torn down long before the race even starts. Hopefully there's some unknown who is biding her/his time to avoid that.
