For supporters of all Dem candidates.
Do the Dems really want the Republicans to be the only ones having any influenece with the corporations, and big bussiness. Should only Republicans get the money from these lobbyists? Until the campaign rules are changed, I think our candidates are doing a disservice to the party by not placing themselves in a position to have some say at the corporate tables. Dems just have to get a little smarter, to me. It is naieve to believe that to be a viable candidate, one should not take contributions from lobbyists. There are some pretty huge left-wing lobbyists out there also.

3. I am not a lobbyist for anyone. Retired 66-year old grandma.
And can say for sure that it is attitudes like yours that will keep the Dems from gaining the WH.
