10. "before you get behind a candidate, do your research."
Wise words.

"She was part of the Secret Free Trade Deal the Democrats made with the repugs"

She was? Here's Sirota's coverage (even though I do not like him)

He blasts Emanuelle but Clinton does not appear to be involved.

He even has some praise for Hillary in the 2nd article

"Put another way, trade is the one area where if Democrats don't do anything at all, they could create the strategic pause in bilateral trade deals called on by leading economists like EPI's Jeff Faux and leading presidential candidates like Hillary Clinton."

"As much as I can understand the wish to have a strong woman candidate for the party, she must NOT be the one. If that's what you want find one at the grass roots without corporate strings and bring her up to the national level."

Who was the last candidate elected via grassroots coprorate strings? Shit, who was the last nominee?

"But heaven forfend, don't put someone who pushed for NAFTA"

Hillary pushed for NAFTA?

"They are a major part of the republican noise machine"

As opposed to the lw noise machine which apparently uses the same tactics.
