Brazile, McAuliffe, black members DLC asked Mosely-Braun to get in race
Saw several articles out there that state that Donna Brazile AND McAuliffe both encouraged Braun to get in the race to "check" Sharpton's power. In addition, she was also encouraged by Black members in the DLC to run. Braun and Brazile have been friends for a while....

So the question is: Does Brazile support Dean - or is Braun just doing this on her own. hmmmm...

1. Far more relevant: Is Sharpton pandering to the DLC?
Just think of all that corporate money and credibility.

And some of it could be Sharpton's if he makes the right enemies.


As for Braun, I'll assume no one has replaced her with a talking robot. She has made her decision, and if there is any manipulative power structure to worry about here it is the DLC.
