Related: About this forumHard Choices: HRC demonstrates how to avoid them
Use vague rhetoric and refuse to be forthright about whether you support such things as the TPA, TPP, Keystone, raising the Social Security Cap. Talk about "toppling the 1%" without offering how to do it.
This isn't principled. It's not courageous. It surely isn't making "hard choices".

If she did so I would immediately get behind her as the nominee.
That said it is early days. She hasn't really rolled out any policies yet.

Remind me ... how many anti-Hillary OPs does it take to generate this acceptably liberal alternative candidate again??
We have to be getting close by now.
