Hillary is a famously good learner. She was educated from a 1964 Goldwater supporter into a 1972 McGovern campaign worker. Since then, she has learned (from many years of insider experience) that winning the trust of rich people is indispensable to winning elections.
The only thing which could possibly persuade her that the rich on Wall Street have overplayed their hand, and must and can be reined in, is if poor people turn out and throw out other politicians for being too cozy with the rich.
If Rahm “f*cking r*tards” Emanuel is beaten by poor Chicagoans’ turn-out, and if poor people in swing states show they are preparing to follow Chicagoans’ example...
then – and only then – will candidate Hillary unlearn many of her hard-earned lessons.
As for a legacy-focused
President Hillary, perhaps she will learn even more (ideally faster than Presidents
Eisenhower and Carter) -- especially if we give her a few more
consistently and unapologetically Progressive Senators.
