What do you have against Debbie Wasserman Schultz?

[Suburbia]

Why is DWS so despised by the liberal and progressive grassroots, even mainstream Democrats? What has she done to receive such criticism? This has been going on before the 2014 midterm elections. Is it her persona? She's an attack dog. I thought Democrats were clamoring for that. What's going on?

She's probably the best example of a soulless Democrat with no principles selling out to campaign contributors.

For instance, she literally sent a letter to a medical marijuana lobby telling them that she was going to support prohibition until they sent her more money than alcohol did.  She does the same thing for pay day loans, went against Obama on Iran, etc.

She's was an incompetent DNC chair during the midterms and is now blatantly rigging the primaries for Hillary.

[Free Bird]

Instead of being a strategist or promoter of ideas, she just can't help but attack the GOP instead at every opportunity.

[publicunofficial]

Has two main ideals:

-Oppose what the Republicans are doing on issues the public cares about.
-On issues the public is ignorant of, just do whatever gets you the most money.

[Santander]

DWS PAC is not her PAC, it stands for Democrats Win Seats.

[RightBehind]

She has been in the tank for Hillary this whole time.

[Attorney General, LGC Speaker, and Former PPT Dwarven Dragon]

- Rigging the nomination for Hillary
- Uses her position to attack the GOP rather than come up with actual good strategy
- Subpar at recruiting
- Is often a puppet for her donors
- Secludes herself in a safe house seat and uses a persecution complex to make herself immune to any consequences for her decisions. Even used her persecution complex against Obama when he was considering replacing her in 2013.

She's just not a good representative for the party.  There are other congresspeople that would do a much better job than her.

Gabrielle Giffords should lead the DNC.  She'd be great on the talk shows.

That and she refuses to help oust her Republican buddies in south Florida.

DWS doesn't hold a single position that can't be traced back to a major contributor's business interests.

[Mr. Reactionary]

Never liked her but I think I started to actively want her to suffer job loss and financial hardship after she said it was antisemitic for a guy who collects historical memorabilia of all kinds to have one of Hitler's paintings in his collection, since it was around Yom Kippur.

[Zioneer]

She also started a whisper campaign a few years back that basically claimed that anyone trying to remove her from the DNC job was anti-woman and anti-Semitic. She's just awful.

[ElectionsGuy]

She's an idiot who can't answer a straight question or organize a party.

[Kingpoleon]

Best chairperson the Republicans will ever have.

[Pandaguineapig]

Nothing, with her at the helm the republicans can have the. White house and supermajorites in both houses by 2018 not to mention dominance in state and local elections. Keep up the good work debs!

[Clark Kent]

She's a Democratic hack, though that is kind of her job.

That's really it. I don't care what kind of damage she does to the Democratic Party.

[Vosem]

She's obviously a Democratic/Clinton-ite hack, but I've always liked her at a personal level and find the level of hate coming at her right now from certain quarters to be pretty amusing.

There's a difference though. Normal NC chairs are cheerleaders, like "yeah we'll win" in addition to a strategist. DWS, on the other hand, is an outright supremacist. Everything to her is about attacking the GOP on an almost unhinged level and is almost like a cult leader in her absolute devotion to the Democratic Party, versus a Howard Dean or Terry McAuliffe that served to boost morale, but never come across like they personally hated Republicans, made them out to be subhuman at every opportunity, and acted like they wanted the other party to outright go extinct.  

Just look at any interviews. Whenever she gets a tough question, she always pivots to attacking Republicans, like it's almost cathartic to her.
