Is Hillary Clinton Truly Immune to SuperPAC Demands?

Of course, Clinton could truly be the first candidate to take the money and run, so to speak, but what are the chances of that actually occurring? No, most likely Mrs. Clinton is hoping that the American public will believe that she can accept PAC money without letting it affect her policy making, while also working to remove the power of SuperPACs in the future.

Anyone who truly believes that such a reality is possible is living in a delusion.

If you do persist to live in that dream world, let Elizabeth Warren wake you up:

Hillary now lives, in the underworld of tit-for-tat, pay-to-play big money politics.

It seems Sen. Warren knows HRC too well.

Maybe HRC should study HRC's record to determine if she's trustworthy.
