(55,981 posts)as you might think" when we know her very well. Makes me wonder why they are trying to sell her in this manner. Are they in some kind of wishful denial? Or do they fully accept her as the proven corporatist she is, but are trying to "fool" others?
Some other techniques include the "ignore 2016 because (insert ridiculous reason here)". And of course the Sen Warren isnt running (so therefore you are bound to support Clinton-Sachs).
The left desperately needs a candidate for 2016. It may not be Sen Warren, but we must have one. Currently Clinton is dancing with Godlman-Sachs and thumbing her nose at the left. I think it is a mistake. If the Republicans run someone moderate that isnt a whacko, they will pull a lot of the New-Democrats back to the fold and it may be a close race if the left doesnt support her. In 2012 Obama knew he didnt have to woo the left because he knew a lot would vote for him irregardless. That may not be true with Clinton. I think the left is getting weary of the lesser of evils bullshit.
