Glad you're here! This is a neat photograph! Man, go to Costco, see the political stars come out! Those lucky folks in line for a signed copy of Hillary's book on this particular day could also have a couple of other autographs on it as well!

I was out front and he arrived and I walked up to him and introduced myself and we had a short convo about some topic or other. Nice man. He's a gem in this red state hell of GA.

Lewis, remember, endorsed Hillary in 2008, but then faced a lot of pressure back in his district from black voters to endorse Obama. He flipped, and the Clintons were furious with him.

For years, dear Hillary has sucked off the teat of corporate America.

Good for the minority of Americans, not for the majority.

To hell with corporate candidates.

Unless you know of individuals who can and will step up with the finances to a candidate to run "sucking at the teat" will continue. Put your coalition together and she nor any other candidate will be "sucking at the teat".
