When it was revealed that "Guccifer 2.0" (named after Romanian hacker Guccifer, who confessed to hacking into Hillary Clinton's private email server multiple times) hacked the DNC's servers, the main story was about leaked opposition research on Donald Trump. But on the same site Guccifer published the Trump research, "2016 GOP presidential candidates," there were also DNC talking points suggesting the party's central organization had been working since May of 2015 to make Hillary Clinton the nominee.

The DNC was diligently cleaning up Clinton's record, using "specific hits to muddy the waters around ethics, transparency, and campaign finance attacks on HRC."

The email also suggested collusion with media networks to push Hillary Clinton as the party's eventual nominee, and anchors for national cable news networks may have broadcasted DNC talking points spoon-fed to them by Democratic Party operatives.
