#1 One does not hunt squirrels in a peach orchard. May we then conclude a connection between the crafty squirrel and the type of tree he inhabits? Tracking the 'hacker' has long been a source of knowledge regarding the hacker's requirements and information shortfalls.

Tracking the foibles and proclivities of democrats, what could possibly be gained from such an endeavor ? [sarc off]

For those who believe in coincidences, the assassination of Politkovskaya occurred on 7 Oct 2006, Vladimir Putin's birthday.

#2 Is there any kind of interference that has been alleged other than hacking and releasing Shrillary et. al. e-mail?

If so the "problem" is that truth that was hurtful to the Dems got out. So from that I conclude that the truth is anathema to the Dems/Progs/Left, true?

I think I've found the major problem with our countries politics.

HRC won the popular vote. Yet another Russian failure.

#5 I think the real hacking took place in Detroit and other bastions of the democratic party.

Not a great deal mentioned about Russian hacking until HRC lost the election. Strange, very strange.

#7 "HRC won the popular vote."

Actually, she didn't, Just that California and New York was so overwhelming democrat that it made it seems like it. On a state by state basis, she lost the popular vote!

The electoral college system works like it's supposed to!

#8 Hey there BrerRabbit et al.
"Democratic" is an adjective. "Democrat" is a noun.

It's the Democrat Party.

#10 For Thert Protector of the Chinese1357: you are right about the formation of various parts of speech from a root, but wrong in your conclusion. From the DNC website About:

Since 1848, the Democratic National Committee has been the home of the Democratic Party, the oldest continuing party in the United States.

Today we are millions of supporters strong, fighting for progress and helping elect Democrats across the country to state government, Congress, and the White House.
