Related: About this forumThanks Clooney: Electing more 1% Corporate Democrats just digs the hole deeper.
What kind of Democrats do you think the Clinton/WMS DNC will see elected? Do we really need to ask this question?
Of course there may be a token non corporate Democrat for camouflage, or not (they are feeling empowered and the disdain for populist Democrats by Camp Clinton is hardly hidden).
I wonder if George Clooney ever thought to consider this? But maybe Clooney likes those 1% Corporate Democrats, after all they did help deliver permanent tax cuts for the wealthy. And to look at what a Democrat stands for you really need to look past identity politics. One Percenters come in all kinds of packages.

It's win-win, for the oligarchs.
