Hillary last night-"I'm a progressive"

Jeez she flips flops on what she is and sees herself. Just a couple weeks ago she was calling herself a "moderate".
Seriously, this is just getting to the point of being stupid now.

From a couple weeks ago;
Clinton 'pleads guilty' to being a moderate
http://www.cnn.com/2015/09/10/politics/hillary-clinton-democrat-progressive/
"You know, I get accused of being kind of moderate and center," Clinton told the audience at a Women for Hillary event in Ohio. "I plead guilty."

And then from last night

Hillary Clinton: 'I'm A Progressive, But I'm A Progressive Who Likes To Get Things Done'
Asked by Anderson Cooper at CNN's Democratic debate whether she was a moderate or progressive, Clinton answered that she was a "progressive."

"I'm a progressive, but I'm a progressive that likes to get things done," she said.

Like Jekyll and Hyde it seems, you never know what you're going to get on a daily basis anymore.

"I'm a progressive, but I'm a progressive that likes to get things done," she said.

First, she is not a progressive, she is a whirling dervish. Apologies to whirling dervishes.

Second - looks like the things she wants to get done are more wars and coddling Wall Street, at a minimum. All the things the Third Way wants. Which are things the GOP will be more than happy to inflict bipartisanship on the rest of us, to accomplish.

To paraphrase Hall & Oates - I can't vote for that, oh, no, no can do. Can't vote for that.
