Hillary Expected to Adopt All of Sanders’s Positions by Noon
Awaking at 8 A.M., Sanders, who had planned to run to the left of Clinton in 2016, discovered that, while he was sleeping, she had already begun running slightly to the left of him.
In an online video posted Thursday morning, Clinton welcomed Sanders to the race, adding, “To those who agree with Bernie Sanders on the issues, let me say this: I am Bernie Sanders.” http://www.newyorker.com/humor/borowitz-report/hillary-expected-to-adopt-all-of-sanderss-positions-by-noon

1. When HRC mouthes the words of populist progressive policies she acts like the words hurt her mouth.
I will never believe she has become a liberal.

5. Why would you not want the person most likely to win the nomination
to take progressive positions?

8. Because she, like Obama, will never follow through
It's all rhetoric. So many fell for Obama's (very finely expressed) rhetoric and never looked at his voting record… or how he came to be the nominee in the first place.

9. Why do you think a Democratic primary electorate with a majority of moderates and conservatives
will vote for someone even more liberal than Hillary?

16. Look at her top campaign donors list
A true liberal wouldn't be so beholden to America's biggest financial companies...

17. Under the campaign finance laws we have now, one of your "true liberals"
would never manage to win in the general election.
If Bernie Sanders wins the primary and restricts himself to Federal Matching funds, he will lose. He can get all the small donations he wants, but if the other side refuses matching funds and accepts no limits, they will spend two or more times as much and he will lose. |

14. Obama followed through with everything in his power.
He lost congress and only had it for a few weeks total.
