Clinton doesn't want to fight for health care all over again?

[Fantastic Anarchist]

Um, we should have fought for it the first time! Or, at the very least, a Public Option.

This whole business of having a contentious discussion all over again is quite upsetting. She didn't want to fight then, and she doesn't want to fight now, accept against single-payer and progressives.

She's not up for "contentious discussions?" Then what is she up for?

She is no leader.

1. Um...we did fight. We lost.

3. We lost because single-payer and the Public Option weren't on the table.

5. Democrats in the House fought tooth and nail until the bitter end.

They fought until the last possible moment, when the choice was to either accept the Senate bill or leave with absolutely nothing.

6. Didn't Sanders help to write it?

Probably just the good parts.

2. POTUS didn't fight for it.

Her insurance company masters said no

4. She isn't the leader for that fight.

She failed when she was First Lady; she lost the fight for health care reform.

So, no ... I don't imagine that she would have the energy or fortitude for a major effort to improve health care for all Americans.

Apparently she wants to fight the permanent Repuglican majorities in the U.S. House and Senate (according to many 'pragmatic' Hillarians here on DU) on gun control.

Yup.
No "contentious discussions" on that issue, right?

Or maybe she doesn't really want to fight for us much at all ... easier to just placate her corporate sponsors.

8. I mean Sanders should run with ...

"Contentious discussions?"

So, um, you make a shit ton of money, and you can't fight for the average American?

Fuck that, and fuck her.

7. She won't upset her ‘enemies’.

Hillary Takes Millions in Campaign Cash From ‘Enemies’

Since her first bid for Senate in 2000, Clinton has accepted nearly $1 million from drug and health companies and more than $2.7 million from the insurance field and its related sectors, according to an analysis of public records from the Center for Responsive Politics. While the analysis did not include campaign finance figures for the 2016 cycle, some of the same donors and patterns can be seen in Clinton’s lone financial disclosure filed in July.

9. Of course not ...

She doesn't want to have a "contentious discussion" about health care, because she'll have more than that with her corporate backers if she does.
