While my recently acknowledged overestimation of my countrymen has impacted my views,
It wasn't merely that Hillary had been a proud Goldwater Republican that caused me to view her as unfit to represent (even anything pretending to be) the Left, it was also her continued adherence to some of the worst aspects of Goldwaterism. How many Wall Street banksters have jacked money up Liz's arse? How many corporations has Liz helped to keep the wages of Haitians suppressed? How many wars did Liz vote for? Come to think of it, I don't recall Liz cackling like a jackal at the heinous murder of a Middle Eastern ruler, or cheerleading for invasions of Libya and Syria. Liz supported the reinstatement of Glass-Steagall, did Hillary? Perhaps I missed something?
