Caveat #1: Did not read the piece.
Two Democrats running for a particular House seat. Minority whip has a meeting with one of them and tells him to drop out because the campaign committee has long since backed the other guy. Says it always is and has been done this way. Candidate in the meeting recorded it on his phone and released it to the press.
Article points out the Democratic campaign committee doesn’t have a good track record for picking winning candidates.
Maybe this stuff isn’t “fair” but it seems totally expected to me.
I tend to agree. I would prefer it was fair, and it does infuriate me as well, but I can kind of see where the party is coming from.
