One By One We're Waking Up

From an e-mailer to Talking Points Memo: 
I've been more than a little saddened by the way that you've "gentlemanly" sat on your hands and (for the most part) reserved extensive comment on the venom Bill Clinton has been unleashing on his wife's behalf. If Hillary wins this nomination in this fashion, the Democratic party will be destroyed. After seeing this side of the Clinton machine, I have zero interest in supporting their dynasty. Not only will the entire R-side of the country be in full-throated opposition to 8 more years of Bill (at this point Hillary is sadly almost an afterthought), but my instinct is that you can count on a very deflated and divided Democratic party not exactly rallying around Team Clinton.
It's crushing, but it's true. If she wins by letting Bill kill the future of the Democratic party, the Ds are done.
The scales have dropped from our eyes. If they win now, no one can play snookered.
