What is a corporate whore?

It's rather funny that people are trying to pin the "whore" tag on Bernie's surrogate. Wrong. He said "Corporate Democratic whore" which isn't even related to the oldest profession in the world. No, instead it means someone who sold their soul for money to a corporation. Speeches at $250k/hr? *cough cough* The biggest recipient of donations from Big Pharma *cough cough*
Please, give us a break. This is reality and how most of America sees Hillary. Welcome to it.
But all this doesn't matter in a General does it?
This is what us Bernie supporters have been saying forever, she has issues.

Which is my preferred characterization of Hillary Clinton.

Citizens United is my number one issue. And only one candidate stands tall against it, Bernie Sanders. Remarkably, one Democratic presidential candidate's donor list states otherwise. That would be Hillary Clinton.

How in the Sam Hell are we going to change anything until money gets out of politics? Don't ask Hillary. She likes the money. Just look at her donor list.
