This is a great analysis by Jimmy Dore.

As Democrats move to the Right over the years, the Republicans have to move further, till now they are in the territory of "batshit crazy".

Then, the Democratic Primary now feels like presidential elections of old. Bernie is staking out the Populist Democratic position, and Hillary is holding the formerly Republican position of cozying up to the banks and corporate money while claiming to work for the working class.

Don't fall for it, or incrementalism, or "compromise" as practiced by any brand of "New Democrat". This is NeoLiberalism. At the heart of destroying our Party. At the heart of destroying our Party. Through their endless wars and lack of action on climate change and against fossil fuel, at the heart of destroying our planet.

ANSWER: the Democratic party.

Guess who these Republicrats are supporting...
ANSWER: Hillary.

"Hillary"

No, not me.

for Hillarians to chew on. Sorta like chewing on an old, "comfortable shoe".

... by some of the die-hard Clinton supporters on DU.

I've got to think there are some Clinton supporters who simply don't know the issues all that well yet and are slowly catching on that maybe they've hitched their wagon to the wrong horse. Watching this video just may spark one or two awakenings. One can hope, anyway.

Great video, GeorgiaP.

Sanders went to Brooklyn, Clinton to 42nd Street in Manhattan. Sanders walked the picket line and delivered a speech, Clinton shook a bunch of hands and offered a few remarks. Sanders told the strikers, "You have chosen to stand up for dignity." Clinton urged Verizon to resume negotiations because "We rely on these men and women as part of the communications that keeps businesses and our economy moving."

“This is just another major corporation trying to destroy the lives of working Americans,” said Sanders, standing on a chair before 200 strikers in his native Brooklyn. “And today you’re standing up not just for justice for Verizon workers.

“You’re standing up for millions of Americans who don’t have a union. You’re telling corporate America ... that workers in this country are not going to be pushed down and down and down.” . . .

Clinton, appearing Wednesday afternoon on 42nd St., shook hands with scores of cheering strikers before encouraging Verizon to resume the now-suspended talks.

“I believe in collective bargaining in good faith,” said Clinton. “I believe in unions being the voice for working people.”

“I know what a difficult decision it is to go out on a strike, and I know your families are going to pay a price for going out on a strike,” the Vermont senator said, according to NBC New York. “But you have chosen to stand up for dignity, for justice and to take out an enormously powerful special interest.” . . .

As Mr. Sanders met with the workers, Mrs. Clinton released her own statement and said Verizon must step up to the plate and reopen negotiations with its employees.

“We rely on these men and women as part of the communications that keeps businesses and our economy moving. Verizon should do the right thing and return to negotiations,” she said.

I guess the corporations know Clinton's words are just window dressing and no threat to them.

After Sanders criticized the company for trying to cut health benefits and ship jobs overseas, McAdam took to LinkedIn to jab at the Vermont senator for “uninformed views (that) are, in a word, contemptible.” . . .

Sanders is “ignoring the transformational forces reshaping the communications industry,” McAdam wrote. “But nostalgia for the rotary phone era won’t save American jobs, any more than ignoring the global forces reshaping the auto industry saved the Detroit auto makers.”

There were no tough words for former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, however, even though she also sided with the striking Verizon workers.
