The ThirdWayers/DLC are Ready for Hillary since 2004....

The manoeuveurs begun when in summer 2004 Clinton guys were sent into Kerry Campaing stafg by their boss and the DLC (with the good help of then Chairman McAuliffe) to help the called "poorly managed campaign get a new succesfull start and lessage spreading". While injecting $$ into it for "public strong support sentiment and appearence"
Those were certainly not as sad as many of us on November 3...
Having secured HRC s 2008 primary bid, they did a powerfull job in 2006, joining the GOP "botched joke" screamout and ultimately threw a, until the event, viable primary chalkenger away from their way.
In 2008, when the finally failed in getting their favorite Dem hawk nominated, they turned to another tactic, different but equally unfair. Discredit Barack Obama along with RWers and especially his supporters, calling them sexist etc.. While also ther suppirting him publicly and financially in public but pricately filling the RW memes with their rancor
When Obama got finally elected, HRC was nominated at State, givig her a powerfull spot to nurtun her already huge popularity and "inevitability"
Now that she is soooi inveitabke...they hope we could even purely SKIPP THE PRIMARIES AND CAUCUSES and directly crown the Second Dem Royal Familly heiress...
Talk about Party Unity.
Talk abou respect of different sensibilities among Democrats
And more of it. Talk about Corporatist Dems. Money. Big Names." Divine Right" Planned Nomination.
And the mosr important. PRO RW MEDIA COMPLAISANCE OVER IT ALL.

and make her Secretary of State thereby giving her much needed foreign policy experience plus it gives her a Democratic president to distance herself from when she runs now!

This is exactly what they are hoping for - it will be presented as "saving money" and "not giving the GOP ammo to use in the general election".
We will likely start to see OPs about how wonderful the TPP is for Americans, too.

in secret (not even Congress is allowed to see it) by corporations and bankers.
There is a lot of information here at DU about it, and you could also google it.
