Obama picked Debbie Wasserman Schultz (D-FL) to lead the DNC. She is good at fundraising, is good on TV, and at times actually gets feisty and punches back.
Not sure how this effects her roles in the House of Representatives or the DCCC, but my initial take on this is that I am fine with the President's decision.
At least she will hit back, which makes her a marked improvement over Tim Kaine, her immediate predecessor.
I will say this. During the long and terrible tenure of Bush Jr., I would turn on CSPAN late night and watch Debbie and Ryan (D-OH) and Delahunt (D-MA) and Meek (D-FL) talk truth to power in an empty house chamber and it gave me a little bit of hope.
Yes she has shortcomings (DLC, etc.), but all in all I support the choice.
Thoughts?
