    lol, Shakir? “Martin won a majority vote among DNC members on the first ballot, 246.5 to 134.5 for Ben Wikler, the chair of the Wisconsin Democratic Party. Martin O’Malley received 44 votes, Faiz Shakir received two and Jason Paul received one” you’re so out of touch, i don’t even know what to say.

      Sounds about right, for someone who has an actual ideology and values that they’ve lived and acted on for years. Presumably, like Bernie, “no one wants to work with him.”

        i love Faiz but it’s really as simple as “he cannot speak or animate a room to save his life and he’s clearly better working on infrastructure side of things than leading a political party”. there’s a reason he was Bernie’s senior advisor and not a public face of the campaign (and before that an aide to Nancy Pelosi).
