Hillary Clinton Says "It's Going To Take A Grassroots Movement" And Thanks DailyKos [View all]

And THEN in almost the same breath, she says she'll definitely take lobbyists' money.... WHAT!?

Even today she still hasn't figured out what 'Grassroots' is all about, but lucky for us Bernie has! She was definitely right about one thing -- it's going to take a Grassroots Movement to get to the White House... and Bernie Sanders has it!

I guess standing up to the insurance companies and the drug companies for awhile during the healthcare battle was all the fight she had in her, so now she figures it's better to take their bags of money right up front and forget her principles. Yet somehow she considers herself akin to the Progressive Movement?

Nice how that 'scruples' thing has an 'on' and 'off' switch on it.

Maybe we need someone who's rudder doesn't shift in the political current every time a wave of cash hits the side of their boat....
