Why does Clinton have to be in there at all?

(10,164 posts)That said, despite my misgivings about her "Third-Way-ness," I'll support Hillary over anyone the GOP comes up with.

(20,277 posts)That doesn't mean that I have to have a ton of enthusiasm about it.
I did a quick google of Wyden. He sounds like a good guy.

(6,107 posts)Is Elizabeth Warren on the board of Walmart? Is she a corporatist?
Did she speak up against the banksters when she was in the senate?
There's a world of difference. If you don't see it, you're not paying attention.

(55,894 posts)unless people are fundamentally opposed and/or unable to closing the gap after the election.
Further, I sincerely doubt a huge number of DU'ers who support Hillary Clinton for POTUS are 'pro-corporate' so when it comes to where people stand politically, there probably isn't a schism. Her supporters just don't see that as their defining issue.
It is highly unlikely I personally will get caught up in the fighting. I'm not a Hillary Fan and don't want her as POTUS. I could get enthused for Joe Biden.

(55,894 posts)The only stupid thing I've seen is Warren signing a note urging Hillary to run is a "Clinton plot".
But that seem pretty mild.

Of course, the last time there was such overlap over policies, the end result was our guy demagoguing the mandate issue in a way that turned out to be not so useful . . .

That should certainly lock up the centrist vote.

What a waste to actually be arguing about something so fucking silly.
"But... But... But if Elizabeth Warren changes her mind..."
And if my grandmother had wheels she'd be a wagon.
