BRAZILE: No. But as you well know, the charter of the DNC as well as the convention rules say that the chairperson, shall, in consultation with the leadership in congress and others, and so I had to put in on the the table, George, because I was under tremendous pressure after Secretary Clinton fainted to have a quote, unquote, plan B.I didn't want a plan B. Plan A was great for me. I supported Hillary and I wanted her to win. But we were under pressure.Brazile paints a scathing portrait of Clinton as a well-intentioned, historic candidate whose campaign was badly mismanaged, took minority constituencies for granted and made blunders with “stiff” and “stupid” messages. The campaign was so lacking in passion for the candidate, she writes, that its New York headquarters felt like a sterile hospital ward where “someone had died.”“I’m not Patsey the slave,” Brazile recalls telling them, a reference to the character played by Lupita Nyong’o in the film, “12 Years a Slave.” “Y’all keep whipping me and whipping me and you never give me any money or any way to do my damn job. I am not going to be your whipping girl!”WPHacks: The Inside Story of the Break-ins and Breakdowns That Put Donald Trump in the White House https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/0316478512?ie=UTF8&tag=thewaspos09-20&camp=1789&linkCode=xm2&creativeASIN=0316478512
