(58,785 posts)should be copying right-wing tactics of trying scare innocent little voters with evil Democratic boogies.
The Democratic victories in the 2008 election were very damaging to the monied families and to corporations, and it's inexcusable to claim otherwise in these days of incredible access to information.
A major conservative propaganda theme to get us to stay home and not vote is, "Oh, might as well give up, the Democrats are all just as crooked if not more, and Hillary's the worst of a bad lot. Better off staying home and eating worms on election day (next December 11)." Your post just chopped off the last and inserted a Morning-in-America-with-Bernie scenario.
As for Big Pharm, they're killing themselves off through greed. Those amoral anti-regulation locusts have chased money out to the end of a dangerous limb. They have put all their dependence on GOP wins in DC and pharm-happy appointments to the Supreme Court to protect them from the consequences and allow them to continue as they are.
If you don't think those scoundrels, who are already badly scared at what's happening in the GOP races, aren't popping their own pills after Scalia's death, just wait for this to play out. Those who don't care to read about it before can wait to watch the talking heads explaining afterward how they foresaw Big Pharm's downfall all along.
BTW, note that The Donald's doing just fiiine in South Carolina.
