Why did Bernie Sanders accept $10,000 from Hillary PAC in 2006 to fund the Senate campaign that he won?

Among funds sources for HILLPAC in 2006 were investment banks and firms like Citigroup [1], the kind of "big money in politics" he speaks out against. Why is his view on the issue different now?
