The big banks are not trying to shut her up, they are withdrawing their campaign contributions.

Or do you think Democrats have a "right" to campaign contributions from big banks?

If Democrats can't win without those contributions, what does that tell you?

Democrats and everyone has a right to contribute to her campaigns.

If we Democrats can't win without bank contributions, it tells me that the system is woefully messed up. We need to get $$$ OUT of politics.

be a war between the progressive wing of the Democratic Party and the Conservatives. The so-called centrists will have to choose sides. Sen Warren or Wall Street / Goldman-Sachs / H. Clinton.

what they thought was the progressive candidate. Sen Warren is being outspoken on the progressive side. HRC is being silent as long as she can hoping to slide into the nomination w/o having to explain her conservative stands on foreign policy, trade, the Security State, the MIC, war in Iraq and Iran.
