we heard it with John Kerry in 2004, then we heard it with Barack Obama in 2008. Analyses in prominent publications like the National Journal, where they crunched the numbers and came to the inevitable conclusion that whoever the democratic nominee happens to be, they were the most liberal senator.
Keep in mind that Obama served in the Senate with Bernie Sanders, and John Kerry served with Paul Wellstone.

OP
Obama was more of a dark horse candidate. But Hillary is much better known.

Either the Republicans get the office and we'll have lost both houses and the whitehouse, or she'll get it and we'll have a bank-loving self-absorbed over-achiever making all the CEOs and foreign interests happy and leaving the American working class behind.

Mass surveillance defends our freedoms.
And Hillary Clinton, neocon and architect of the predatory TPP, is a "liberal."

Nothing right now is more important now than stopping Hillary and any other corporate-purchased Third Wayer in a Democrat suit from being shoved down our throats as the 2016 Democratic nominee. If they can do that, they've ensured that the One Percent keeps right on eating us all alive, no matter which side wins.
