WHO, exactly, at this point, is THE FIGHTER actually fighting for? |
|
It's obvious she's a fighter.
She fought against the republicans and Bush, except on big issues like
the Iraq War Resolution off-shore drilling cluster-bombs for kids Kyl-Lieberman telecom immunity
She's a fighter, sure, for the votes of everyone, except for people in
red states states with large African American populations caucus states small blue states swing states she lost medium sized blue states she lost FL and MICH, until after she needed their votes big states she lost
She fights, because all votes are important to her
as long as they are white votes that can make a show of it that she's electable or as long as those votes are from superdelegates to overturn the will of Democratic voters
She fights for the sake of the Party, unless we mean
Party unity the next generation of Democrats expanding the Democratic base downticket Democrats
She fights against the architects of the Republican hate media, except for
Scaife Limbaugh Drudge Murdoch
She fights for the good of regular people, except for
what her gas tax holiday actually would do to them that she's beholding to special interests and PACs that she thinks lobbyists represent regular people that she said "screw 'em"
She fights to be a role model for young women, except when she
lies about Bosnia and tells tall tales about her foreign policy "achievements" co-opts many of the the worst stereotypically male traits
She fights for her principles, which is why
she shook MLK's hand and then became a Goldwater Girl she voted against ethics reform she used robocalls and push polls she prayed on voter fears with smear ads she changed her stance on the war in Iraq after she began her campaign she thinks a right-wing flip-flopping war hawk with no new ideas is qualified to be president she did nothing when her husband said the African-American candidate running against her would brag next that "he doesn't steal cars."
She's fighting for you, which is why she needs you to
pay off her campaign debt pretend she's been vetted recently believe Reverend Wright still matters pretend she's a viable candidate despite less votes, delegates, states won, donors, volunteers, and no resources believe its more important to act like republicans to overturn a Democratic election instead of acting like Democrats to nominate the candidate who the people have backed to win against republicans in the general election
Who, exactly, is the fighter fighting for now?
