they are less in bed with the rich e.g. They would like to repeal citizens United which is the vehicle the rich will use to undermine our democracy.

You realize most of the "Blue" states (California, NY, NJ, etc.) are also the wealthy states and that wealthy Hollywood, wealthy Manhattan, etc. are all dominated by Democrats? But you think it is Republicans that are in bed with the rich?

As for "Citizens United," you must also realize that Obama decided that he would not be part of public campaign financing in 2008 because he had the ability to materially outspend McCain (and did)?
