(14,255 posts)Plus, ANY criticism of Hillary will be branded as Right Wing nasty talk.
By not announcing whether she will run, she is effectively tying up everyone else who wants to run, because the Big Money won't "invest" until they know what is going to happen. Hillary is a great investment for Wall Street; Warren, of course and for example, is not. So a lot of the big money will stay in those deep pockets until Hillary shits or gets off the pot.
And, I have been told, the onliest thing of any importance whatsoever in today's "democracy" is money and winning with that money and being obligated to the money when/if elected. Which renders campaign rhetoric as blather and not to be taken seriously.
I do think that there is about as much enthusiasm for Hillary, at DU, as there is ever going to be - and the thing to be counted on is lesser evil, and voting just because of the "D" on the shirt.
