Another reason for leaking given in that piece, loser in an internal dispute goes public in hopes of changing the equation and perhaps getting another shot at it, dates back to 18th century Parliaments— and the very origins of the political press and of public opinion.

What is also interesting here is the number of sources: the latest Sanders rant was told and confirmed by five sources. That takes away the personal motivation.

I've considered trying to get a job in the WH so that I can spy & tell ALL... But I'm worried I'll be so stressed, that I'll get so thin my body will start digesting it's own organs.
