In other words, taking advantage of Citizens United ruling. At this point the Clinton name has a taint to it and need not be heard. Apparently she does not understand that.

They attack her because she's powerful, persuasive, and appealing. Going away is what the GOP wants her to do. Why should she listen to them? She's smart to keep doing what she's doing to help the party. MM isn't the audience she's trying to reach. Not you nor me, either. She's working to make women more powerful in politics. She's very good at it. Similarly for the Obamas. They're not going to go away, and they shouldn't. My $0.02. Cheers, Scott.

Look, the point isn't whether or not most of the crap said about her was true or not. I've long ago concurred that Republicans are pathological liars and virtually all, if not entirely all, of the criticisms they made of her were a pack of lies and distortions. We've no argument on that score. The point is that it worked with far too many stupid Americans (who are legion, btw). On the West coast and in the NE coast it doesn't hurt to be associated with her (in fact, it probably helps). But in the other 40 states she is largely reviled. It doesn't matter if that revulsion is justified or not, she hurts candidates in virtually all of those 40 states by supporting them. If we learned nothing else from the 2016 election, we should at least recognize that the ideas of Third Way New Democrats were rejected in the most forceful and destructive manner imaginable and no longer have any place in our politics. bcnu, Mikem It's mourning in America again.

I'd call "Ending a Monarchy" a pretty big real change. YMMV. -NT - (mmoffitt) - (3) - Aug. 3, 2018, 03:28:31 PM EDT

How so? - (Another Scott) - (2) - Aug. 4, 2018, 12:19:49 AM EDT
