Remember when we were told, for months during the earlier primary season, that the Republican Party was in chaos?
Well this is what is going on over on the Democrat side. See how it stacks up.
Excerpted from Niels Lesniewski’s article at thehill.com:
A contentious Nevada Democratic convention this past weekend has led to a barrage of threats against the chairwoman of the state party.
And it’s led the state party’s lawyer to send a rather remarkable letter to the Democratic National Committee, warning of the risk of violent outbursts at the national convention in Philadelphia.
“Having seen up close the lack of conscience or concern for the ramifications of their actions—indeed, the glee with which they engaged in such destructive behavior—we expect similar tactics at the National Convention in July,” wrote Nevada party counsel Bradley Schrager in a letter dated Monday. “We therefore formally complain to the DNC regarding these unfortunate events, and warn the body that the goal of many of these individuals, sanctioned or encouraged by the Sanders Campaign, is not party-building but something more sinister and unproductive.” A Sanders spokesman told the Associated Press that the campaign had no connection to the violence at the weekend convention or the threats to the party chair.
Roberta Lange, a longtime Democratic operative and confidante of Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid, has faced a barrage of attacks not only in social media but also on voicemail and in text messages, some of which have been reviewed by Roll Call. “Hey bitch.”
“Loved how you broke the system.”
“We know where you live.”

“You made a bad choice. Prepare for hell.”
“Calls won’t stop.”
A question for our wonderful neutral media: will you be reporting this as heavily as you reported the Republican chaos?
Please prove me wrong, because my money is heavily on the expectation that you will not.
Add to that Sanders refusal to quit.
