The problem is that Hillary is a policy wonk. That is where her passion is. Hate to say it, but what is needed is someone more like her husband. That person could win. By acknowledging that a lot of people have grievances and that we can work together to address them as a country instead of just a special interest group. Agree completely...........plus she comes off like a wet noodle. Dems are making a mistake running her. Second the need for a Bill Clinton. Steve Benen and I have exchanged emails on this very topic. He's met her and her staff personally. On the plus side, he says she's a very capable administrator and has competent staff who are very loyal to her. So there's that. It is dicey, though. Populist movements have a lot of power and are capable of triggering massive changes. Revolutionary ones. They are singularities in that there is no predicting where they go. Right now, we could wind up with some particularly nasty outcomes. Yeah, see what's happening in Greece. Even charismatic leaders like Tsipras have a hard time harnessing its power. But something needs to be done. It is sort of like the San Andreas fault. Sooner or later it is going to pop. And once the avalanche starts, it is too late for the pebbles to vote... Yup. It could very well lead to the break up of the country. Did you see where TX pulled its gold bullion out of a bank in NYC?
