Clinton Ally Resigns in Mark of Infighting

Hillary Clinton ally David Brock on Monday resigned from the board of a pro-Clinton super-PAC, according to a letter obtained by Politico, accusing it of leaking information about other pro-Clinton groups.

The move is a sign of fighting among the network of pro-Clinton groups, the kind of strife that plagued the Clinton campaign in 2008 but that allies were trying to avoid this time around.

Brock is resigning from the board of Priorities USA Action, and his letter claims that officials there leaked information to The New York Times about the fundraising practices of two pro-Clinton groups founded by Brock: Media Matters and American Bridge.

The Times article in question revealed that American Bridge, Media Matters and another pro-Clinton group, Ready for Hillary, have paid a consultant, Mary Pat Bonner, a 12.5 percent commission on money she brings in.

Brock's letter calls this article "an orchestrated political hit job," and he accuses Priorities officials of being behind what he views as an attack on his groups.

Brock alleges that “current and former Priorities officials were behind this specious and malicious attack on the integrity of these critical organizations.”

How about they all resign and find a real candidate instead of a useless washed up media creation with no real accomplishments. Oh wait I can think of one - the famous quote "At this point what difference does it make" when questioned on the death of our consulate and support staff by Muslim terrorists.
