Good riddance.

Anybody who claims she was a good chairwoman is dead wrong; she was in charge during 2014.

She's already the longest serving DNC chair since the '60s. And next time just means 2020. Ridiculous that she wasn't sacked the first thing the day after the 2014 election.

If she gets rid of the caucuses, then maybe her chairmanship wasn't a complete total wasteful disaster.

If Democrats win big this year, it will be in spite of DWS, not because of her.

It should be at the beginning of 2017.

DWS screwed Hillary towards the end of the 2008 primary season, and I have faith in Hillary to screw DWS back now even if she ends up trying not to leave on her own.

Uh, the 2014 elections weren't nearly as bad for Democrats as 2010.

Yes, but they were still horrible.

They compounded the losses of 2010 and wiped out the gains of 2012 though.

Michael Tate looks like he's a dark horse potential chair. Rahm Emanuel seems like the front runner.

Yes they were, yes the democrats lost 63 seats in 2010 but thats because overwhelming of those seats were gained in lean gop districts in 2006 and 2008 and with an incumbent dem flipped back.   And in 2014 the dems were absolutely pounded on the senate, and governor level  and the state legislators .

Rahm, for all of his many, many, many, many faults, was an amazing DCCC chair.
