46. Hillary runs dirty, she will attempt to savage Elizabeth Warren

It's a good thing she can take it! The good news is Hillary's supporters are all big time bankers and there are not many of them so it is a small voting block. She does have a lot of banking groupies among third way Dems however which will guarantee some really viscous attacks on Warren that will backfire just like the racist shit she pulled backfired last time big money ran her.

It would be the primary of Goldman Sachs vs those that hate big money crooks (the 99%). They have the money but that is all they have and $$$ does not translate into likability.

How sad - someone running as a "Democrat" who concedes she has lost the Left. djean111 Jun 2014 #59

I do not agree we need a third party. We need to take back control of our Democratic Party rhett o rick Jun 2014 #61

I agree with you in spirit, but in practice, Wall Street owns the Democratic party, djean111 Jun 2014 #63

But nothing would make the oligarchs happier than to splinter off the left into a third party. rhett o rick Jun 2014 #64
