I do not view Hillary as a real Democrat...if there is such a thing. She was a Republican in the 60s and I believe she behaves like one now. The bar isn't how crazy many republicans have been encouraged to be in order toove the center and legitimize the conservatives who aren't totally crazy tea party types. Russ Feingold, Udall, Wdyen, Warren, Grayson...these are actual democrats...not corporate sell outs masquerading as liberals for there own ends.

I'm in the same boat. painesghost Dec 2013 #1
