Hillary Says All Women Can be Sellouts

Hillary Clinton gave a beautiful answer tonight at the debate about how it is time for a woman to be President and how she has seen women across the country come out and tell her so. That is all well and good, but that doesn't change the fact that if Hillary was a man I still would think that she is a corporate first politician who doesn't understand what working folks go through.

Yes, I know the unions are kissing her ass and some are endorsing her, but that is because the unions think she is the front runner and don't want to piss her off.

Yes, Hillary is better than any Republican, but that doesn't make her right for the job of President.

This little snip from Ezra Klein's blog sums up how I'm feeling about Hillary...

"This is a moment to do for progressivism what Reagan did for conservatism. It's not that I don't think she's up to that task so much as I don't even know that she's interested in it."

The time is now for for some liberal/progressive populism, but we will not see this time realized with Hillary Clinton as President. Mrs Clinton has too many people to please, she has insurance companies, people who like globalization in its current form, people who will stand in the way of our progressive revolution because they have too much to lose. Robert Rubin will not allow Hillary Clinton to shift far enough to the left for us to realize a true progressive revolution. Mark Penn will continue to skew his polling so Mrs Clinton doesn't sellout the clients he represents.

I want to see us elect a person who can lead progressives and fix the mess Bush has made, and I do not think Hillary Clinton is this person, and that is too bad, because it would be great to see this country elect a woman as President.

I know this is just a quick hit diary, and yes, I am aware this could have been a comment in the debate thread, but fuck it, this is my diary and I haven't posted one in a long while and I really am sick and tired of Hillary Clinton.

BTW, I endorse no one for President, the only thing I have decided is I do not support Hillary Clinton in the primary and that I can use this diary to vent this after watching the debate and hearing the post debate spin from the Carville, it is really funny to see Carville on CNN giving his opinions as if he doesn't have a horse in the race.
