Market Watch:Am I supposed to hate Hillary Rodham Clinton because shes too left-wing, or too right-wing? Because shes too feminist, or not feminist enough? Because shes too clever a politician, or too clumsy?
Am I supposed to be mad that she gave speeches to rich bankers, or that she charged them too much money?
I suspect her critics here could use some new (or old) material.....

(6,409 posts)She gave speeches to rich bankers, and she took a lot of money from them. I guess "...charged them too much... makes them sound like victims, which they are not, since they will get their money's worth. They have been getting a good deal ever since the Reagan administration and the K Street shakedown, but from Democrats as well as Republicans. The interesting thing I see here on DU is the difference in how people see the money game, depending on which party does it. We excoriate the Republicans for taking special interest money, but we tell ourselves our candidates are not influenced by big campaign donations. I could buy this if our politicians had a perfect record of voting in the public interest, but I think we know how that's going.
