Keith Ellison, who was recommended by folks like Bernie Sanders and Elizabeth Warren, will in all likelihood take over as DNC chair, but things aren’t all a bed of roses yet.

Bernie might run again, but there’s no real democratic front-runner for the party to rally around yet (that I’ve heard of).

Thank you for the post and links.

Ellison seems interesting character and choice - though his views on Israel (alleged or otherwise) will likely be a talking point - and possible distraction? Religion, eh?

(It has been a bone of contention in the UK recently with some people - in the main politicians and the hate-media - seemingly not able to separate that others can have sympathy for Palestinians and not be anti-Semitic too - it was certainly an easy target for a time).
