Good. I hope she loses. I have lost all and any respect I had for her.

Kim Davis as a back-bencher in this seat would be better than DWS.

I'd actually vote in a Dem primary just to support this guy.

Well, we Republicans dislike her for obvious reasons. I guess the Democrats hate her because she's obviously horribad.

Democrats dislike her because 2014 happened under her leadership. Republicans dislike her due to her political views.

I don't think people particularly mind her as a Congresswoman, but she's been a terrible chairwoman of the DNC. She reiterates all of the elitist, arrogant stereotypes Republicans have about Democrats and just gives them more ammunition to use (see her response to the difference between Democrats and Socialists). Plus, she is a bit of a megalomaniac with a terrible persecution complex. One Politico article reported "According to people who spoke with her, when she sensed Obama was considering replacing her as chair in 2013, she began to line up supporters to suggest the move was both anti-woman and anti-Semitic."

Also, this. http://www.politifact.com/personalities/debbie-wasserman-schultz/statements/byruling/false/

This isn't the first time there has been a horrible "Democrat" that I'm happy that has a primary challenger until I remember that only the Republican party challenges all of their moderates with non-moderates. Gavin Newsom had some challenger who was even worse than him.

Yeah, I'm a fan of DWS, but the press's reaction to a Democrat getting primaried for supporting the Iran deal would be fantastic. I'd cross parties to vote for him just based on that.

I don't care if this guy is primarying her from the right. She needs a challenge. Even if it's AIPAC scalping her, the party will be better off without her.

Exactly. DWS needs to be defeated at all costs, even if it's to Zell Miller.
