Progressive this week? Moderate next week?

[grasswire]

How can Hillary get away with this double speak?

Sometimes I feel as if the Clinton campaign just pulls various canned memes from somewhere and plugs them in.

So which is it? Pick one, Hillary!!

1. New Hampshire's next week so, no, it won't be moderate.

She'll save that for SC and NV.

2. Premium vintage Romney... I think 2012? /nt

3. Talk about etch a sketch. Gives ole mitt a run for his money.

[grasswire]

5. YES! nt

[Doctor_J]

4. her minions lap it up

When she's a liberal, they say, "yep, she's a liberal". When she calls herself a moderate, it's, "I want a moderate president"

15. They're going to be some lonely people if she scams her way to the nomination. nt

6. Have to keep up with the Sanders, don't you know!

Haven't you heard! It's suddenly square to be a corpocrat and groovy to be a swinger! As Hillary sure can swing! She can swing in any direction you want!

Time for all the rats to jump Hillary's sad and tired sinking ship.

7. Having it both ways, double-speak: it's just how Hillary rolls. nt

8. It almost seems like one of those old toys...

......where you pull a string and it speaks some words. "The cow says MOO" or something like that. I don't remember what that toy is called.

9. That toy was called a See & Say

[grasswire]

12. YES

thanks!!

Wouldn't it be funny to have one with politicians on it??

Trump: It's gonna be YUUUGE

[hedda_foil]

11. That's right. And after awhile the kid would point at the chicken and get "the pig goes baaah."

Pretty much the same.

14. It was so funny when that happened

There was one of those toys at my babysitter's house and it was so funny when the sounds started to be mismatched with the pictures

16. she wants to double her coverage: she talks corpo to cons and donors, prog to progs

(make sure nobody she panders to ever gets together and compare notes)

so if she says the opposite things to two audiences she gets twice the votes! that's their logic!

[99th_Monkey]

17. If it walks like a weathervane, talks like a weathervane ... nt

[MisterP]

18. of course they don't realize that that's exactly what's turning people off from supporting her

if there's someone who doesn't pander, doesn't flip policies depending on audience, that's another downside

[Luminous Animal]

10. Let's call the whole thing off.

[grasswire]

13. you get extra points from me!!

Cue Astaire...

19. Clinton is a progressive. Pretty much always has been. Although she also

understands that the US is a representative democracy. And as such, there has to be middle ground in order to both make progress on anything, and come as close as possible to reflecting the will of ALL of the voters. That is what leaders do.

In my opinion there are two things needed to truly become a progressive nation that won't be constantly in battle with itself.

1) Work on electing down ticket Dems. And don't blow off midterms.

2) Move the center right voters, to the left. Then we will have a clear majority and not be subject to all the congressional games.

Anything else is just political noise.

Infighting does nothing to move us left.

And I think some on the right are finally starting to wake up to the fact that their elected officials are not being good public servants, and are actively hurting the country. Trump is a perfect indication to me that they are ready for change. But after at least the last 20 plus years, of listening to people like Rush and Glenn Beck scream at them about how horrible the left is, it will take some work.
