just have the courage of her convictions. Seriously, someone needs to take charge of this. She's hurting herself here. Putting all of it aside, she's looking like a fool.

Wonder if there might be some connection to her saying this and a certain state caucus tomorrow?

Nah. Couldn't be. Probably a mere coincidence.

you can see it right here on DU: anyone who so much as evinces puzzlement that she's a bigger foe of Wall Street than all the Roosevelts combined is gonna get expelled from the safe-space Playpen

therefore people living in bubbles within bubbles feel perfectly safe saying such a statement: it's only when the claim hits meatspace do things get bad

to tell us she really means it? Are they finally able to recognize bullshit when they step in it? Took them long enough after following her the past few months or longer.

The difference being that her 'regulations' would benefit the rich whereas Bernies regulations would benefit the people more.

...further than Sanders, she's a johnny-come-lately liar. No way is she going to regulate those who paid her ticket to the White House.

Mon Feb 1, 2016, 11:54 AM

I am willing to bet most of them will take that last choice. The alternatives are not good for them. The one thing i have always noticed about people and serial liars and mostly it holds true. That liars keep on lying and the ones that believe or believed at one time think that over time the liar will change their ways and be honest some how. It don't happen and never will. Those people who believed in the liar will become dysfunctional in that relationship eventually. In the here and now though, the only reaction will be none that can be seen and later some kind of excuse or explanation why others perceived the liar wrongly. It's a sick world but it's the only one we have

Not too high, not too low

She could even consider writing z strongly worded letter. It's not further than Sander's but to Hillery it's pragmatic.
