Her milquetoast performances on TV as a representative of the Democratic Party leave much to be desired. I’m sorry that Ms Brazille got sprayed. I hope it wasn’t a very direct blast. I hope that this unfortunate turn of events provides a wake-up call. Many Democrats like Brazille seem to have been paying little attention to the dangerous tilt toward fascism that has been occurring for quite some time. The thuggish actions of RNC “Security Forces” - unlawful arrests of citizens on public property, infiltration of peaceful activist groups, pre-emptive detention of American Citizens, seizure of property - should not be taken lightly.</p> While it sucks to be pepper sprayed, it may inspire Ms Brazille to develop a little fire in her furnace as an opposition party member.
